1933 Act File No. 2-66437
1940 Act File No. 811-2993
Dear Sir or Madam:
Enclosed are the preliminary Proxy Statement and form of proxy for the above-referenced Registrant. Definitive copies of these proxy materials are expected to be released to shareholders on or about October 12, 2016.
The purpose of this meeting is to approve certain proposals related to the transfer of Federated Investment Management Company’s (“FIMCO”) general partnership interest in Passport Research, Ltd. (“Passport”), the Fund’s investment adviser, to Passport Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Jones Financial Companies, L.L.L.P. (“Jones Financial”) (the “Passport Transfer”).
If the Registrant is not alerted by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) within ten (10) days of the filing of this statement concerning comments on the information disclosed in it, the Registrant will consider itself free to mail definitive proxy materials to its shareholders without waiting to hear from the Staff.
In connection with the review of this filing by the Staff of the Commission, the Registrant acknowledges that it is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filings; Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to Staff comments in the filings reviewed by the Staff do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and the Registrant may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
If you have any questions on the enclosed material, please contact me at (412) 288-1165.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Sheryl L. McCall
