Gabelli Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: GBL) announced today that it is considering the launch of state specific tax-exempt money market funds, which would be tax-free at both the state and federal level to residents of a particular state. Gabelli Asset Management believes that the market for state specific tax-exempt portfolios is an attractive option for customers of the Gabelli Funds and others. Any offering will be made only by means of a prospectus and this notice does not constitute an offer of any securities for sale.

This development follows the notice that the Board of Directors of The Treasurer's Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") has approved the recommendation of Gabelli Fixed Income LLC, the Fund's investment adviser, to no longer accept purchases in the three active money market portfolios of the Fund, namely the Domestic Prime, U.S. Treasury and Tax Exempt portfolios. It is anticipated that the Fund's Board of Directors will consider action to liquidate each of the portfolios in the near future.

The Treasurer's Fund, Inc is managed by Gabelli Fixed Income LLC, a majority-owned subsidiary of Gabelli Asset Management Inc, a publicly traded NYSE listed company. Gabelli Asset Management, through its subsidiaries, manages $27.6 billion in assets in private advisory accounts (GAMCO), mutual funds and closed-end funds (Gabelli Funds, LLC) and partnerships and offshore funds (Investment Partnerships).
