Abstract
A class of exact solutions of the field equations with higher derivative terms is presented when the matter field is a pressureless null fluid plus a Maxwellian static electric component. It is found that the stable solutions are black holes in anti de Sitter background. The issue of the stability of the Cauchy horizon is discussed.
