SCHEDULE 13D/A

This Amendment No. 5 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 27, 2015 (the "Original Schedule 13D") as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on June 19, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 2 filed on August 5, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 3 filed on August 18, 2015, as amended by Amendment No. 4 filed on January 12, 2016, and together with the Original Schedule 13D and this Amendment No. 4, with respect to the shares ("Shares") of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Deutsche High Income Opportunities Fund, Inc.(the "Issuer"). This Amendment No. 5 amends Items 3 and 5 as set forth below.

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Funds for the purchase of the Common Shares were derived from the subscription proceeds from investors in SCMF, SCMF II, SCLMF, SCS, SCEF 1 and SCEF 2 and the capital appreciation thereon and margin account borrowings made in the ordinary course of business. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account, which may exist from time to time. Since other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Common Shares reported herein. A total of $24,610,325 was paid to acquire the Common Shares reported herein.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)	See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D/A for the aggregate number of Shares and percentages of the Shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons.

(b)	See rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D/A for the number of Shares as to which each Reporting Person has the sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition.

(c)	The transactions in the Shares effected since the filing of the Schedule 13D/A Amendment 4 by Saba Capital on behalf of the Saba Entities, which were all in the open market, are set forth in Schedule A, and are incorporated herein by reference.
