The proxies will be voted at the Joint Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds to be held on September 21, 2007, at 5800 Corporate Drive, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at 2:00 p.m. local time (the "Joint Annual Meeting"). The Joint Annual Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the respective holders of common shares (the "Common Shareholders") and preferred shares (the "Preferred Shareholders" and, together, the "Shareholders") of the two Funds because the Shareholders of the Funds are expected to consider and vote on similar matters. Shareholders of each Fund will vote separately on the Proposals set forth herein and on any other matters that may arise for that Fund, and an unfavorable vote on the Proposals by the Shareholders of one Fund will not affect the implementation of the Proposals by the other Fund if the Proposals are approved by the Shareholders of the other Fund. The cost of the solicitation, including the printing and mailing of proxy materials, will be borne by the Funds. In addition to solicitations through the mail, proxies may be solicited by officers, employees, and agents of the Funds. Such persons will receive no additional compensation for making such solicitations. In the unlikely event that quorum is not reached in a timely manner, the Funds may also employ Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. as a proxy solicitor pursuant to its standard contract, the cost of which will be borne by the Funds and is estimated to be approximately $3,500 per Fund. Solicitations by such persons may be by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail, or otherwise. Any telephonic solicitations will follow procedures designed to ensure accuracy and prevent fraud, including requiring identifying shareholder information, recording the shareholder's instructions, and confirming to the shareholder after the fact. The Funds will reimburse custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries for the reasonable costs incurred by them in connection with forwarding solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of shares held of record by such persons. The purposes of the Joint Annual Meeting are set forth in the accompanying Notice. The Trustees know of no business that will be presented for consideration at the Joint Annual Meeting other than that mentioned in the Notice. Should other business properly be brought before the Joint Annual Meeting, proxies will be voted in accordance with the best judgment of the persons named as proxies. This Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy cards are expected to first be mailed on or about July 25, 2007 to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 11, 2007 (the "Record Date"). On the Record Date, the Funds had outstanding the following numbers of shares: Common Preferred Shares Shares Federated Premier Municipal Income Fund 6,130,037 2,147 Federated Premier Intermediate Municipal Income Fund 6,946,981 2,441 The classes of Fund shares listed in the table above are the only classes of shares currently authorized by each Fund. The Funds' Annual Report, which includes audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2006, was mailed to shareholders on or about January 29, 2007. A copy of the Annual Report will be furnished, without charge, to any shareholder of either Fund upon request by calling 1-800-730- 6001. The Funds' semi-annual report, which includes unaudited financial statements for the six months ended May 31, 2007, accompanies this proxy statement. The most recent shareholder reports also can be accessed from the "Products" section of the Federated Investors website at FEDERATEDINVESTORS.COM. The Funds' principal executive offices are located at 5800 Corporate Drive, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15237-7000. The Funds' toll-free telephone number is 1-800-730-6001.

The address for both the Adviser and the Administrator is Federated Investors Tower, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222-3779. PROPOSAL #1 - ELECTION OF FOUR CLASS I TRUSTEES (COMMON AND PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS) In accordance with each Fund's Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (each a "Declaration"), the Trustees elected by the Common and Preferred shareholders of each Fund have been divided into the following three classes (each a "Class"): Class I, whose term will expire at the Funds' 2007 annual meeting of shareholders; Class II, whose term will expire at the Funds' 2008 annual meeting of shareholders; and Class III, whose term will expire at the Funds' 2009 annual meeting of shareholders. At each annual meeting, successors to the Class of Trustees whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year term. Accordingly, shareholders will vote to elect Class I Trustees at the Joint Annual Meeting to serve for an approximately three-year term until the 2010 annual meeting and until their successors shall be duly elected and shall qualify. The following table summarizes, for both Funds, the nominees who will stand for election by both the Common and Preferred shareholders at the Joint Annual Meeting, the respective Class of Trustees to which they have been designated and the expiration of their respective terms if elected: Trustee Class Expiration of Term if Elected* John F. Donahue Class I 2010 Annual Meeting Thomas G. Bigley Class I 2010 Annual Meeting John T. Conroy, Jr. Class I 2010 Annual Meeting Thomas M. O'Neill Class I 2010 Annual Meeting * A Trustee elected at an annual meeting shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his term expires and until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office. The persons named as proxies intend to vote in favor of the election of John F. Donahue, Thomas G. Bigley, John T. Conroy, Jr. and Thomas M. O'Neill as Class I Trustees of each Fund. All of the nominees are presently serving as Trustees. Please see "Information about the Funds" for current biographical information about Messrs. J. F. Donahue, Bigley, Conroy and O'Neill. IN THE ELECTION OF THE CLASS I TRUSTEES, THE HOLDERS OF EACH FUND'S COMMON SHARES AND PREFERRED SHARES WILL VOTE TOGETHER AS A SINGLE CLASS, WITH EACH SHARE ENTITLED TO ONE VOTE. IN THE ELECTION OF CLASS I TRUSTEES FOR EACH FUND, THE FOUR NOMINEES RECEIVING THE HIGHEST NUMBERS OF VOTES WILL BE ELECTED. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE FUNDS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF THESE NOMINEES. PROPOSAL #2 - ELECTION OF TWO TRUSTEES (PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS ONLY) In accordance with each Fund's Declaration, at each annual meeting the holders of the Fund's Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class, are entitled to elect two Trustees. The two Trustees elected by the Preferred Shareholders at each annual meeting serve for an approximately one-year term until the next annual meeting and until their successors shall be duly elected and shall qualify. The Common Shareholders of the Funds do not have the right to vote with respect to the election of these two Trustees. The following table summarizes, for both Funds, the nominees who will stand for election by the Funds' Preferred shareholders at the Joint Annual Meeting and the expiration of their respective terms if elected: Trustee Expiration of Term if Elected* Peter E. Madden 2008 Annual Meeting John S. Walsh 2008 Annual Meeting * A Trustee elected at an annual meeting shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his term expires and until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office. The persons named as proxies intend to vote in favor of the election of Peter E. Madden and John S. Walsh as Trustees of each Fund. Both of the nominees are presently serving as Trustees. Please see "Information about the Funds" for current biographical information about Messrs. Madden and Walsh IN THE ELECTION OF THE TWO TRUSTEES TO BE ELECTED BY THE PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS, THE HOLDERS OF EACH FUND'S PREFERRED SHARES WILL VOTE SEPARATELY AS A CLASS, WITH EACH SHARE BEING ENTITLED TO ONE VOTE. IN THE ELECTION OF THESE TRUSTEES FOR EACH FUND, THE TWO NOMINEES RECEIVING THE HIGHEST NUMBERS OF VOTES WILL BE ELECTED. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE FUNDS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF THESE NOMINEES. INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS PROXIES, QUORUM AND VOTING AT THE JOINT ANNUAL MEETING In each election of Trustees, the qualified nominees receiving the highest numbers of votes cast by the shareholders entitled to vote in such election at a meeting at which a quorum is present, up to the number of Trustees to be elected in such election, shall be elected. Only shareholders of record on the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Joint Annual Meeting. Each Common and Preferred Share of the Funds is entitled to one vote on all matters to be voted on by that class of shares. Fractional shares are entitled to proportionate shares of one vote. Shareholders do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of Trustees. Any person giving a proxy has the power to revoke it any time prior to its exercise by executing a later dated proxy or a written notice of revocation and submitting it to the Secretary of the Fund. In addition, although mere attendance at the Joint Annual Meeting will not revoke a proxy, a shareholder present at the Joint Annual Meeting may withdraw his or her proxy and vote in person. All properly executed and unrevoked proxies received in time for the Joint Annual Meeting will be voted in accordance with the instructions contained in the proxies. If no instruction is given ON THE PROXY, the persons named as proxies will vote the shares represented thereby in favor of the nominees named in this Proxy Statement. All nominees named above have consented to continue to serve if elected. If any nominee named above shall by reason of death or for any other reason become unavailable as a candidate at the Annual Meeting, votes pursuant to the enclosed proxy will be cast for a substitute candidate selected by the Nominating Committee of the Board. The Board has no reason to believe that any nominee will become unavailable for election as a Trustee. In order to hold each Fund's annual meeting, a "quorum" of shareholders must be present. Holders of one-third of the total number of outstanding Preferred Shares of the Fund, present in person or by proxy, shall be required to constitute a quorum for the purpose of voting on the election of the two Trustees to be elected separately by the Preferred Shareholders. Holders of one-third of the total number of outstanding Common and Preferred Shares of the Fund, present in person or by proxy, shall be required to constitute a quorum for the purpose of voting on the election of the Class I Trustees and any other matter which is properly presented for action by the shareholders at a Fund's annual meeting. If a quorum is not present for any proposal, the persons named as proxies may vote those proxies which have been received in favor of one or more adjournments of the Joint Annual Meeting to permit further solicitations of proxies with respect to such proposal(s). All such adjournments will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the session of the Joint Annual Meeting to be adjourned. A shareholder vote may be taken on the proposals in this Proxy Statement prior to any such adjournment if sufficient votes to constitute a quorum have been received.

Donahue, Bigley, Conroy, O'Neill, Madden and Walsh are nominees for election at the Joint Annual Meeting.

The purpose of the Funds' Audit Committees is to oversee the accounting and financial reporting process of the Funds, their internal control over financial reporting, and the quality, integrity and independent audit of the Funds' financial statements. The Audit Committee also oversees or assists the Board with the oversight of compliance with legal requirements relating to those matters, approves the engagement and reviews the qualifications, independence and performance of the Funds' independent auditors, acts as a liaison between the independent auditors and the Board and reviews the Funds' internal audit function. In discharging its responsibilities, the Audit Committee is entitled to rely upon the reports, findings and representations of the Funds' auditors, legal counsel and responsible officers. In fiscal 2006, the Audit Committee met on nine occasions. A report of the Audit Committee is attached as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement. NOMINATING COMMITTEE The Nominating Committee of each Fund currently consists of all of the Fund's Independent Trustees, as identified above. Dr. Murray serves as Chairman of the Nominating Committee. The Board has adopted a written charter for the Nominating Committee, a copy of which is available under "Fund Governance" in the "Products" section of Federated's website at FEDERATEDINVESTORS.COM. The Board has determined that all members of the Nominating Committee are "independent," as defined by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The Nominating Committee was established in May 2004 and met on one occasion during fiscal 2006. The responsibilities of the Nominating Committee are to select and nominate persons for election to the Board as and when vacancies occur or are reasonably anticipated. The Committee's nominees are presented to the Board for election, or nomination for election by the shareholders, as the case may be. The Committee will consider candidates recommended to the Committee by Independent Trustees of the Fund, officers or employees of any of the Fund's agents or service providers, counsel to the Fund or shareholders of the Fund. In identifying and evaluating candidates for consideration, the Committee will consider such factors as it deems appropriate. These factors will ordinarily include integrity, intelligence, collegiality, judgment, diversity, skill, business and other experience, qualification as an "Independent Trustee," the existence of material relationships which may create the appearance of a lack of independence, financial or accounting knowledge and experience, dedication and willingness to devote the time and attention necessary to fulfill Board responsibilities. Any shareholder who desires to have an individual considered for nomination by the Committee must submit a recommendation in writing to the Secretary of the Fund, at the Fund's address appearing on page 1. The recommendation should include the name and address of both the shareholder and the candidate and detailed information concerning the candidate's qualifications and experience. The Committee does not at this time have a formal process for identifying and evaluating nominees for Trustee. However, it is not anticipated that the process for evaluating a nominee would differ based on whether the nominee is recommended by a shareholder. SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS A shareholder who wishes to communicate with the Board, a Committee of the Board or any individual Trustee or group of Trustees may do so by sending the communication in writing, addressed to the Board, the Committee, the individual Trustee or group of Trustees, c/o the Secretary of the Fund, at the Fund's address appearing on page 1. The Funds do not have a policy regarding attendance by Board members at annual meetings, and it is not anticipated that any members of the Board will attend the Joint Annual Meeting. No member of the Board attended the annual meeting in 2006. OFFICERS OF THE FUNDS The executive officers of the Funds are elected annually by the Board of Trustees. Each officer holds the office until qualification of his successor.

Ernst & Young LLP audited the financial statements of the Funds in fiscal 2006. It is not expected that a representative of Ernst & Young LLP will be present at the Joint Annual Meeting to make a statement or respond to appropriate questions. The following table shows the fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP for the Funds' last two fiscal years for services to each Fund and to the Adviser and its affiliates that provide ongoing services to the Funds: YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2006 YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2005 AUDIT AUDIT- TAX ALL AUDIT AUDIT- TAX ALL FEES RELATED FEES OTHER FEES RELATED FEES OTHER FEES FEES FEES (2) FEES (1) (2) Federated Premier Municipal Income Fund $28,000 $-- $-- $20,000 $25,895 $81 $-- $20,000 Federated Premier Intermediate Municipal Income Fund $28,000 $-- $-- $20,000 $25,895 $81 $-- $20,000 Federated Investment Management Company and its affiliates that provide N/A $-- $-- $-- N/A $111,153 $-- $-- ongoing services to the Funds ___ (1)These services consisted of quarterly reviews of the Preferred Shares asset maintenance test calculations. (2)These services consisted of transfer agent testing (direct to funds) and review of Sarbanes Oxley Section 302 procedures. The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that the provision of such services does not impair the auditor's independence. Unless a type of service to be provided by the independent auditor has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels will require specific pre- approval by the Audit Committee. Certain services have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The term of the general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. The Audit Committee will annually review the services that may be provided by the independent auditor without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee and may grant general pre-approval for such services. The Audit Committee will revise the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. The Audit Committee will not delegate to management its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to its Chairman. The Chairman will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will designate another member with such pre-approval authority when the Chairman is unavailable. AUDIT SERVICES The annual audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee must approve any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, registered investment company structure or other matters. In addition to the annual audit services engagement specifically approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval for other audit services, which are those services that only the independent auditor reasonably can provide. The Audit Committee has pre-approved certain audit services; all other audit services must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee. AUDIT-RELATED SERVICES Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Funds' financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee believes that the provision of audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor, and has pre-approved certain audit-related services; all other audit-related services must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee. TAX SERVICES The Audit Committee believes that the independent auditor can provide tax services to the Funds such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor's independence. However, the Audit Committee will not permit the retention of the independent auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent auditor, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Audit Committee has pre-approved certain tax services; all tax services involving large and complex transactions must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee. ALL OTHER SERVICES With respect to the provision of services other than audit, review or attest services the pre-approval requirement is waived if: (1) The aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues paid to the auditor by the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (2) Such services were not recognized by the Fund, the Adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (3) Such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee of the Fund and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit services classified as all other services that it believes are routine and recurring services, and would not impair the independence of the auditor. The SEC's rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of prohibited non-audit services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the prohibitions. PRE-APPROVAL FEE LEVELS Pre-approval fee levels for all services to be provided by the independent auditor are established annually by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding these levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. PROCEDURES Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee are submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent auditor and the Principal Accounting Officer and/or Internal Auditor, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence. The percentages of services in the Audit Related Fees, Tax Fees and All Other Fees categories in the table above that were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to Section 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X were as follows: Federated Premier Municipal Income Fund: 2006- 0% 2005- 0% Federated Premier Intermediate Municipal Income Fund: 2006- 0% 2005- 0% Federated Investment Management Company and affiliates: 2006- 0% 2005- 0% Non-Audit Fees billed to the Funds, the Funds' investment adviser, and certain entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser: Fiscal year ended 2006 - $177,119 Fiscal year ended 2005 - $202,136 The Funds' Audit Committee has considered that the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Funds that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence. SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Section 30(h) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 require that each Fund's Trustees and officers, the Funds' investment advisor and its affiliated persons, and beneficial owners of more than 10% of any class of a Fund's outstanding securities ("Reporting Persons") file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to changes in their beneficial ownership of securities of the Fund. Based solely upon a review of the copies of such filings and written representations from certain Reporting Persons received by the Funds, the Funds believe that all Reporting Persons complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements in the fiscal year ended November 30, 2006 with the following exception: Initial Statements of Beneficial Ownership of Securities (Form 3) for Richard A. Novak, Treasurer of the Funds, were not filed in a timely fashion. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2008 ANNUAL MEETING Shareholder proposals intended for inclusion pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act in a Fund's proxy statement for its 2008 annual meeting of shareholders must be received by the Funds, at the address indicated on page 1 of this Proxy Statement, not later than March 21, 2008. In order for a proposal made outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act to be considered "timely" within the meaning of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act, such proposal must be received by the Funds at such address not later than June 6, 2008. OTHER MATTERS AND DISCRETION OF ATTORNEYS NAMED IN THE PROXY No business other than the matters described above is expected to come before the Joint Annual Meeting, but should any other matter requiring a vote of shareholders arise, including any question as to an adjournment or postponement of the Joint Annual Meeting, the persons named on the enclosed proxy card will vote on such matters according to their best judgment in the interests of the Funds. SHAREHOLDERS ARE REQUESTED TO VOTE BY TELEPHONE OR COMPLETE, DATE AND SIGN THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD AND RETURN IT IN THE ENCLOSED ENVELOPE, WHICH NEEDS NO POSTAGE IF MAILED IN THE UNITED STATES. By Order of the Trustees John W. McGonigle Secretary July 25, 2007 1 FEDERATED PREMIER MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND FEDERATED PREMIER INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND INVESTMENT ADVISER FEDERATED INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT COMPANY Federated Investors Tower Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222-3779 ADMINISTRATOR FEDERATED ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES Federated Investors Tower Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222-3779 IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT FUND DOCUMENT DELIVERY In an effort to reduce costs and avoid duplicate mailings, the Funds intend to deliver a single copy of certain documents to each household in which more than one shareholder of the Funds resides (so-called "householding"), as permitted by applicable rules. The Funds' "householding" program covers their Semi-Annual and Annual Shareholder Reports and any proxy or information statements. Shareholders must give their written consent to participate in the "householding" program. The Funds are 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 Funds give notice of their intent to "household" at least sixty (60) days before they begin "householding" and (iii) none of the shareholders in the household have notified the Funds 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 Funds at 1-800-730-6001. 2 EXHIBIT A (approved by the Board of Trustees on May 18, 2007) AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT The Audit Committee oversees each Fund's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Trustees. The Committee operates pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board. The Board of Trustees, in its business judgment, has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are "independent" as defined in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The Funds' management has the primary responsibility for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Funds' financial statements and the adequacy of their internal controls. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for planning and carrying out an audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and expressing an opinion based on the audit as to whether each Fund's audited financial statements fairly present its financial position, results of operations and changes in net assets in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee has reviewed each Fund's audited financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2006 and has discussed the financial statements with management and with Ernst & Young LLP, the Funds' independent registered public accounting firm for 2006. The Audit Committee has received from the independent registered public accounting firm written disclosures pursuant to Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees, and has discussed those matters with the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has also received from the independent registered public accounting firm the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence. The Audit Committee considered whether the provision of non-audit services by the independent registered public accounting firm is compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm's independence. Based on the reviews and discussions described above, the Audit Committee authorized the inclusion of each Fund's audited financial statements in the Funds' Annual Report for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2006 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
