Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from September 1, 2005 to February 28, 2006.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

	Beginning Account Value 9/1/2005	Ending Account Value 2/28/2006	Expenses Paid During Period¹
Actual:
Class A Shares	$1,000	$ 1,017.10	$4.90
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,012.20	$8.63
Class C Shares	$1,000	$1,013.30	$8.64
Class F Shares	$1,000	$1,017.10	$4.90
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses):
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,019.93	$4.91
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,016.22	$8.65
Class C Shares	$1,000	$1,016.22	$8.65
Class F Shares	$1,000	$1,019.93	$4.91

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The annualized net expense ratios are as follows:

Class A Shares		0.98%
Class B Shares		1.73%
Class C Shares		1.73%
Class F Shares		0.98%

Portfolio of Investments Summary Tables

At February 28, 2006, the Fund's credit-quality ratings composition¹ was as follows:

S&P Long-Term Ratings as Percentage of Total Net Assets		Moody's Long-Term Ratings as Percentage of Total Net Assets
AAA	9.7%	Aaa	10.1%
AA	3.0%	Aa	2.1%
A	6.5%	A	6.1%
BBB	15.8%	Baa	13.8%
BB	5.6%	Ba	5.3%
B	4.0%	B	0.2%
CCC	0.0%	Caa	1.0%
Not Rated by S&P	53.2%	Not Rated by Moody's	59.2%
Other Assets and Liabilities--Net²	2.2%	Other Assets and Liabilities--Net²	2.2%
TOTAL	100.0%	TOTAL	100.0%

1 These tables depict the long-term, credit-quality ratings assigned to the Fund's portfolio holdings by Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Moody's Investors Service (Moody's), each of which is a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO). These credit-quality ratings are shown without regard to gradations within a given rating category. For example, securities rated "A-" have been included in the "A" rated category. Rated securities that have been prerefunded, but not rated again by the NRSRO, have been included in the "Not rated by..." category.

Rated securities include a security with an obligor and/or credit enhancer that has received a rating from an NRSRO with respect to a class of debt obligations that is comparable in priority and security with the security held by the Fund. Credit-quality ratings are an assessment of the risk that a security will default in payment and do not address other risks presented by the security. Please see the descriptions of credit-quality ratings in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

Holdings that are rated only by a different NRSRO than the one identified have been included in the "Not rated by..." category. Of the portfolio's total net assets, 45.5% do not have long-term ratings by either of these NRSROs.

2 Assets, other than investments in securities, less liabilities. See Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Notes to Financial Statements

February 28, 2006 (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as a non-diversified open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide a high level of current income which is generally exempt from federal regular income tax. Interest from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for individuals and corporations and state and local taxes. The Fund offers four classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C and Class F Shares. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting, except on class-specific matters.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America.

Investment Valuation

Municipal bonds are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue, and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. The Fund generally values fixed-income and short-term securities according to prices furnished by an independent pricing service, except that securities with remaining maturities of less than 60 days at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost. Prices furnished by an independent pricing service for municipal bonds are intended to be indicative of the bid prices currently offered to institutional investors for these securities. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Directors (the "Directors").

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses are allocated to each class based on relative average daily net assets, except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class such as distribution and shareholder services fees. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary.

Other Taxes

As an open-end management investment company incorporated in the state of Maryland but domiciled in Pennsylvania, the Fund is subject to the Pennsylvania Franchise Tax. This franchise tax is assessed annually on the value of the Fund, as represented by average net assets for the tax year.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Swap Contracts

The Fund may enter into swap contracts. A swap is an exchange of cash payments between the Fund and another party, which is based on a specific financial index. The value of the swap is adjusted daily and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When a swap contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. The swap contracts entered into by the Fund are on a forward settling basis. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, the Fund had no realized gain (loss) on swap contracts.

Risks may arise upon entering into these agreements from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contract and from unanticipated changes in the value of the financial index on which the swap agreement is based. The Fund uses swaps for hedging purposes to reduce its exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

Swap contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after the Fund's portfolio of investments.

Futures Contracts

The Fund periodically may sell bond interest rate futures contracts to manage duration and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a bond interest rate futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, the Fund had net realized gains on futures contracts of $291,576.

Future contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after the Fund's portfolio of investments.

Restricted Securities

Restricted securities are securities that may only be resold upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer's expense either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Such restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Directors. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund's restricted securities are valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, at the fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Directors.

Additional information on restricted securities, excluding securities purchased under Rule 144A that have been deemed liquid by the Directors, held at February 28, 2006, is as follows:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

At February 28, 2006, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $512,601,377. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes excluding any unrealized appreciation/depreciation from futures contracts was $25,854,712. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $31,554,319 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $5,699,607.

At August 31, 2005, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $49,555,161, which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

Expiration Year		Expiration Amount
2008		$24,259,223
2009		$ 4,968,940
2010		$ 3,907,651
2011		$ 5,101,855
2012		$ 3,341,471
2013		$ 7,976,021

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

Federated Investment Management Company, the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"), receives for its services an annual investment adviser fee equal to 0.60% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser may voluntarily choose to waive and/or reimburse any portion of its fee. The Adviser can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver and/or reimbursement at any time at its sole discretion.

Pursuant to a settlement with the New York Attorney General, the Adviser has agreed to waive investment adviser fees in compliance with an Assurance of Discontinuance dated November 17, 2005. The net investment adviser fee was reduced to 0.3233% effective January 1, 2006 and may not be increased until after December 31, 2010.

Federated retained an outside law firm to perform an internal review of past mutual fund trading practices and report to a special investigative committee of Federated's Board. In conjunction with this review, the Independent Directors of the Fund retained a financial expert to assess the impact of these trading practices. In accordance with the findings of the financial expert, the Fund's Adviser made a contribution to the Fund of $243,498 for the six months ended February 28, 2006, which relates to the reimbursement of operating expenses for fees received by Federated from assets invested as a result of frequent trading arrangements.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average aggregate daily net assets of certain Federated funds as specified below:

Maximum Administrative Fee		Average Aggregate Daily Net Assets of the Federated Funds
0.150%		on the first $5 billion
0.125%		on the next $5 billion
0.100%		on the next $10 billion
0.075%		on assets in excess of $20 billion

The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $150,000 per portfolio and $40,000 per each additional class of Shares. FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FAS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, the net fee paid to FAS was 0.076% of average aggregate daily net assets of the Fund.

Distribution Services Fee

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, the Fund will compensate Federated Securities Corp. (FSC), the principal distributor, from the daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares and Class F Shares to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses according to the following schedule annually, to compensate FSC.

Share Class Name		Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets of Share Class
Class A Shares		0.25%
Class B Shares		0.75%
Class C Shares		0.75%
Class F Shares		0.25%

FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion. When FSC receives fees, it may pay some or all of them to financial intermediaries whose customers purchase shares. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, FSC retained $70,791 of fees paid by the Fund. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, the Fund's Class A and Class F Shares did not incur a distribution services fee.

Sales Charges

For the six months ended February 28, 2006, FSC retained $99,786 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares. FSC also retained $3,760 of contingent deferred sales charges relating to redemptions of Class A Shares, $6,207 relating to redemptions of Class C Shares, and $4,423 relating to redemption of Class F Shares. See "What Do Shares Cost?" in the Prospectus.

Shareholder Services Fee

The Fund will pay fees (Services Fees) up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares and Class F Shares to financial intermediaries or to Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC), for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Under certain agreements, rather than paying financial intermediaries directly, the Fund may pay Service Fees to FSSC and FSSC will use the fees to compensate financial intermediaries. FSSC or these financial intermediaries may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of their fee. This voluntary waiver can be modified or terminated at any time. For the six months ended February 28, 2006, FSSC did not retain any fees paid by the Fund.

Interfund Transactions

During the six months ended February 28, 2006, the Fund engaged in purchase and sale transactions with funds that have a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment advisers), common Directors/Trustees, and/or common Officers. These purchase and sale transactions complied with Rule 17a-7 under the Act and amounted to $97,740,000 and $95,370,000, respectively.

General

Certain of the Officers and Directors of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.

6. INVESTMENT RISK

The Fund has 44.5% of its portfolio invested in lower rated and comparable quality unrated high-yield securities. Investments in higher yield securities may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk and the risk tends to be more sensitive to economic conditions than higher rated securities. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer may be significantly greater for the holders of high-yielding securities because such securities are generally unsecured and often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer.

7. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the six months ended February 28, 2006, were as follows:

Purchases		$	93,676,398
Sales		$	73,958,948

8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. These lawsuits began to be filed shortly after Federated's first public announcement that it had received requests for information on shareholder trading activities in the Funds from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Office of the New York State Attorney General ("NYAG"), and other authorities. In that regard, on November 28, 2005, Federated announced that it had reached final settlements with the SEC and the NYAG with respect to those matters. As Federated previously reported in 2004, it has already paid approximately $8.0 million to certain funds as determined by an independent consultant. As part of these settlements, Federated agreed to pay for the benefit of fund shareholders additional disgorgement and a civil money penalty in the aggregate amount of an additional $72 million. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these lawsuits, all of which seek unquantified damages, attorneys' fees and expenses, and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

As required by the Act, the Fund's Board has reviewed the Fund's investment advisory contract. The Board's decision to approve the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment on whether to continue the existing arrangements. During its review of the contract, the Board considers many factors, among the most material of which are: the Fund's investment objectives; the Adviser's management philosophy, personnel, processes, and investment and operating strategies; long term performance; the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders and their relative sophistication; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the range and quality of services provided to the Fund and its shareholders by the Federated organization in addition to investment advisory services; and the Fund's relationship to the Federated family of funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charge.

In its decision to appoint or renew the Adviser, the Board is mindful of the potential disruptions of the Fund's operations and various risks, uncertainties and other effects that could occur as a result of a decision to terminate or not renew an advisory contract. In particular, the Board recognizes that most shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Adviser's industry standing and reputation and in the expectation that the Adviser will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund. Thus, the Board's "selection" or approval of the Adviser must reflect the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Fund. The Board also considers the compensation and benefits received by the Adviser. This includes fees received for services provided to the Fund by other entities in the Federated organization and research services received by the Adviser from brokers that execute fund trades, as well as advisory fees. In this regard, the Board is aware that various courts have interpreted provisions of the Act and have indicated in their decisions that the following factors may be relevant to an Adviser's fiduciary duty with respect to its receipt of compensation from a fund: the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, including the performance of the Fund; the Adviser's cost of providing the services; the extent to which the Adviser may realize "economies of scale" as the Fund grows larger; any indirect benefits that may accrue to the Adviser and its affiliates as a result of the Adviser's relationship with the Fund; performance and expenses of comparable funds; and the extent to which the independent Board members are fully informed about all facts bearing on the Adviser's service and fee. The Fund's Board is aware of these factors and is guided by them in its review of the Fund's advisory contract to the extent they are appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considers and weighs these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated on matters relating to the Federated funds, and is assisted in its deliberations by the advice of independent legal counsel. In this regard, the Board requests and receives substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization. Federated provides much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnishes additional reports in connection with the particular meeting at which the Board's formal review of the advisory contract occurs. In between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board may receive information on particular matters as the need arises. Thus, the Board's evaluation of an advisory contract is informed by reports covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, personnel, and processes; operating strategies; the Fund's short- and long-term performance (in absolute terms, both on a gross basis and net of expenses, as well as in relationship to its particular investment program and certain competitor or "peer group" funds and/or other benchmarks, as appropriate), and comments on the reasons for performance; the Fund's expenses (including the advisory fee itself and the overall expense structure of the Fund, both in absolute terms and relative to similar and/or competing funds, with due regard for contractual or voluntary expense limitations); the use and allocation of brokerage commissions derived from trading the Fund's portfolio securities (if any); the nature and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates; compliance and audit reports concerning the Federated funds and the Federated companies that service them (including communications from regulatory agencies), as well as Federated's responses to any issues raised therein; and relevant developments in the mutual fund industry and how the Federated funds and/or Federated are responding to them. The evaluation process is evolutionary, reflecting continually developing considerations. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace. For the past year, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and scope of services provided the fund by the Adviser and its affiliates was satisfactory.

With respect to the Fund's performance and expenses in particular, the Board has found the use of comparisons to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be particularly useful, given the high degree of competition in the mutual fund business. The Board focuses on comparisons with other similar mutual funds (rather than non-mutual fund products or services) because, simply put, they are more relevant. For example, other mutual funds are the products most like the Fund, they are readily available to Fund shareholders as alternative investment vehicles, and they are the type of investment vehicle in fact chosen and maintained by the Fund's investors. The range of their fees and expenses therefore appears to be a generally reliable indication of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Fund competes. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group may be a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing on the Fund's investment program, which would in turn assist the Board in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services are such as to warrant continuation of the advisory contract.

For the periods ending December 31, 2004, the Fund's performance for both the one and three year periods was above the median of the relevant peer group. During the year ending December 31, 2004, the Fund's investment advisory fee after waivers and expense reimbursements, if any, was above the median of the relevant peer group. The Board reviewed the fees and other expenses of the Fund with the Adviser and was satisfied that the overall expense structure of the Fund remained competitive. The Board will continue to monitor advisory fees and other expenses borne by the Fund.

The Board also receives financial information about Federated, including reports on the compensation and benefits Federated derives from its relationships with the Federated funds. These reports cover not only the fees under the advisory contracts, but also fees received by Federated's subsidiaries for providing other services to the Federated funds under separate contracts (e.g., for serving as the Federated funds' administrator). The reports also discuss any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades as well as waivers of fees and/or reimbursements of expenses. In order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waive fees and/or reimburse expenses. Although the Board considers the costs incurred and the profitability of the Federated organization as a whole, it does not evaluate, on a fund-by-fund basis, Federated's "profitability" and/or "costs" (which would include an assessment as to whether "economies of scale" would be realized if the fund were to grow to some sufficient size). In the Board's view, the cost of performing advisory services on a fund-specific basis is both difficult to estimate satisfactorily and a relatively minor consideration in its overall evaluation. Analyzing isolated funds would require constructed allocations of the costs of shared resources and operations based on artificial assumptions that are inconsistent with the existing relationships within a large and diversified family of funds that receive advisory and other services from the same organization. In addition, the availability of the exchange privilege among funds in the Federated family makes consideration of the overall cost and profitability of Federated more relevant than that of individual funds. Based upon this review, the Board is satisfied that the costs incurred in, as well as the profitability realized from, managing the Fund and the other Federated Funds are appropriate. Although the Board is always interested in discovering any genuine "economies of scale," its experience has been that such "economies" are likely to arise only when a fund grows dramatically, and becomes and remains very large in size. Even in these instances, purchase and redemption activity, as well as the presence of expense limitations (if any), may offset any perceived economies. As suggested above, the Board considers the information it receives about the Fund's performance and expenses as compared to an appropriate set of similar competing funds to be more relevant.

The Board bases its decision to approve an advisory contract on the totality of the circumstances and relevant factors and with a view to past and future long-term considerations. Not all of the factors and considerations identified above are relevant to every Federated fund, nor does the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. With respect to the factors that are relevant, the Board's decision to approve the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provide a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangements.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT FUND DOCUMENT DELIVERY

In an effort to reduce costs and avoid duplicate mailings, the Fund(s) intend to deliver a single copy of certain documents to each household in which more than one shareholder of the Fund(s) resides (so-called "householding"), as permitted by applicable rules. The Fund's "householding" program covers its/their Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, and supplements to each, as well as Semi-Annual and Annual Shareholder Reports and any Proxies or information statements. Shareholders must give their written consent to participate in the "householding" program. The Fund is also permitted to treat a shareholder as having given consent ("implied consent") if (i) shareholders with the same last name, or believed to be members of the same family, reside at the same street address or receive mail at the same post office box, (ii) the Fund gives notice of its intent to "household" at least sixty (60) days before it begins "householding" and (iii) none of the shareholders in the household have notified the Fund(s) or their agent of the desire to "opt out" of "householding." Shareholders who have granted written consent, or have been deemed to have granted implied consent, can revoke that consent and opt out of "householding" at any time: shareholders who purchased shares through an intermediary should contact their representative; other shareholders may call the Fund at 1-800-341-7400.
