Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

The total return of Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund (the “Fund”), based on net asset value for the 12-month reporting period ended August 31, 2016 (“reporting period”), was 9.17% for Class A Shares and Class F Shares, 8.35% for Class B Shares, 8.47% for Class C Shares and 9.45% for Institutional Shares.¹ The 9.45% total return of the Institutional Shares consisted of 4.70% of tax-exempt dividends and reinvestments and price appreciation of 4.75% in the net asset value.² The Fund's broad-based securities market index, the S&P Municipal Bond Index (the “Main Index”), had a total return of 7.03% during the reporting period. The total return of the 25% S&P A and Higher/25% BBB/50% High Yield, All 3-Year Plus Sub-Index (the “Blended Index”)³ was 10.60% during the reporting period. The total return of the Morningstar High Yield Muni Funds Average (MHYMFA),⁴ a peer group average for the Fund, was 9.77% during the reporting period. The Fund's and the MHYMFA's total returns for the most recently completed fiscal year reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses, which were not reflected in the total return of any index.

During the reporting period, the Fund's investment strategy focused on: (a) selection of lower-quality, investment-grade and noninvestment-grade securities⁵ (these securities typically have higher yields than high-quality, investment-grade securities available in the market); (b) security selection; (c) selection of intermediate- to long-term, tax-exempt municipal bonds that typically yield more than short-term, tax-exempt municipal bonds due to the upward sloping yield curve; (d) active adjustment of the Fund's duration⁶ (which indicates the portfolio sensitivity to changes in interest rates);⁷ (e) allocation of the Fund's portfolio among securities of similar issuers (referred to as “sectors”); and (f) credit quality. These were the most significant factors affecting the Fund's performance relative to the Blended Index during the reporting period.

The following discussion will focus on the performance of the Fund's Institutional Shares.

Market OVERVIEW

During the reporting period, 10-year Treasury yields decreased from a high of 2.34% in November 2015 to a low of 1.36% in July 2016 and averaged 1.89%. Economic activity in the U.S. expanded at a moderate pace despite the global economic and financial setbacks in recent months. A range of recent economic indicators, including strong job gains, pointed to additional strengthening of the labor market. Inflation showed signs of picking up in recent months; however, it continued to run below the Federal Reserve System's (the “Fed”) two percent longer run objective. This partly reflected declines in energy prices and impacts of the U.S. dollar's strength on non-energy imports. Global economic

developments continued to pose risks as turmoil in Chinese financial markets and lower oil prices contributed to concerns about the prospects for global economic growth and a pullback from risky assets. The Fed's decision to raise the federal funds target rate by 1/4 percent was widely anticipated by the markets. A downward revision in the expected path of the federal funds target rate was warranted by economic conditions and moved closer to the markets' expectations of the long-run plan.

The vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union (“Brexit”) resulted in immediate asset price volatility and some financial markets, particularly certain foreign exchange markets, experienced brief periods of strained liquidity. Safe haven asset prices appreciated substantially, but broad based market dislocations did not develop. Overall, the negative sentiment surrounding the Brexit outcome was subsequently alleviated by expectations of the central banks being more accommodative. Nevertheless, several long term global risks related to Brexit remained.

Downward pressure on domestic energy activity intensified over the reporting period as oil prices dropped further. The imbalance of crude oil relative to demand remained very high, and it was not expected to resolve quickly. The collapse in the price of oil supported the fixed-income markets by further reducing price pressures and generating concerns that the drop in oil prices might reflect declining demand in a weakening global economy. The support for household spending from lower energy prices was offset by the restraint implied by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar and the possibility of adverse effects from slower economic growth in China.

During the reporting period, developments in Europe continued to be a focus for investors which indirectly affected interest rate levels in the tax-exempt municipal bond market. With regard to Europe, there continued to be downside risks to growth emanating from the region, given its unresolved imbalances, weak economic growth and continued deflationary risks. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the currencies of most advanced economies amid concerns about growth in those countries as well as announcements by several central banks regarding monetary policy actions. Elements underpinning the strength of the U.S. dollar were the increasing prevalence of negative interest rates on sovereign debt in some key European economies and risks to the international economic outlook. The European Central Bank announced that it would expand its asset purchase program.Credit conditions in the municipal bond market continued to be generally solid. Credit quality continued to be overall very stable, and ratios of general obligation bonds to those of comparable Treasury securities rose, partly reflecting the declines in yields on Treasury securities. The default by Puerto Rico and the downgrade of Illinois general obligation bonds both had only a limited effect on the broader municipal market.The municipal bond markets' technical (supply and demand) position was mostly favorable over the reporting period. The issuance of municipal debt was lower than in previous periods as issuers were hesitant to add additional

leverage and the economic benefits of refunding existing debt became less advantageous. Flows from investors into intermediate, long and high yield municipal bonds were positive and broad-based for a significant portion of the reporting period.

The intermittent flight to quality by investors as a result of the unstable global political and economic environment also favored municipal bonds as they were viewed as a safer alternative investment.

The risk of additional municipal issuers becoming distressed remained through the reporting period. Some state and local governments turned to the courts for assistance in lowering their onerous pension liabilities, but responses from the courts were generally not favorable. Any workouts of these concerns are likely to take many years, which will continue to constrain state and local government budgets and limit their capacity to deal with severe infrastructure needs. The ongoing pressures on public pension plans and their unfunded liabilities continued to receive significant scrutiny.

Some positive news about the fiscal position of the states became available during the reporting period and, in some cases, revenues rose sufficiently enough to enable increases in state government spending and employment. These positive events allowed the spread between “AAA”- and “BBB”-rated general obligation debt to narrow by 27 basis points for 30 year maturities during the reporting period. The municipal yield curve also flattened significantly as yields on shorter maturities increased while yields on longer maturities (5 years and longer) declined leading to better total return performance for longer dated municipal bonds.

SECURITY SELECTION

Individual security selection was the largest contributor to Fund performance compared to the Blended Index. Although a number of idiosyncratic factors played a role, the Fund benefited from an overall improvement in underlying credit, particularly the advance refunding of several positions. Throughout the reporting period, the Fund held an underweight position in Puerto Rico bonds as compared to the Blended Index; although Puerto Rico bonds saw a partial bounce back during the reporting period after several years of deterioration, the Fund's mix of Puerto Rico holdings partially mitigated the impact of the underweight position. Overall, individual security selection contributed positively to Fund performance during the reporting period.

YIELD CURVE AND MATURITY

During the reporting period, the Fund's distribution of maturities along the yield curve, relative to the Blended Index, contributed negatively to Fund performance. In particular, the Fund's relative underweight of long bonds trading at a discount–which better captured the benefit of falling rates–was the main factor behind this lag.

SECTOR allocation

During the reporting period, the Fund was overweight, as compared to the Blended Index, in Senior Care and Airport bonds, which helped the Fund's relative performance. Overweight positions in Industrial Development and Pre-Refunded Bonds (bonds for which the principal and interest payments are secured or guaranteed by cash or U.S. Treasury securities held in an escrow account), which underperformed, caused a drag in relative performance. As a whole, the Fund's sector allocations contributed negatively to Fund performance relative to the Blended Index during the reporting period.

DURATION

As determined at the end of the reporting period, the Fund's dollar-weighted average duration was 5.2 years, 0.3 years shorter than 5.5 years at the beginning of the reporting period. Duration management remained a significant component of the Fund's investment strategy. During the reporting period, the Fund's duration was generally 90-100% of the Blended Index. Overall, the Fund's duration made a negative contribution to Fund performance relative to the Blended Index.

CREDIT QUALITY⁸

During the reporting period, the lowest-rated part of the Blended Index–bonds rated “B” or lower–saw the strongest returns. This portion of the Blended Index is dominated by Puerto Rico bonds and benefited from the partial resurgence in prices for these bonds. The Fund's underweight position in bonds with these ratings–particularly Puerto Rico bonds–led to credit quality contributing negatively to Fund performance versus the Blended Index.

3	The Blended Index is being used for comparison purposes because, although it is not the Fund's broad-based securities market index, the Fund's investment adviser (“Adviser”) believes it more closely reflects the market sectors in which the Fund invests. Please see the footnotes to the line graphs under “Fund Performance and Growth of a $10,000 Investment” below for the definition of, and more information about, the Main Index and the Blended Index.

6	Duration is a measure of a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations. For purposes of this Management Discussion of Fund Performance, duration is determined using a third-party analytical system.

8 Investment-grade securities and noninvestment-grade securities may either be: (a) rated by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization or rating agency; or (b) unrated securities that the Fund's Adviser believes are of comparable quality. The rating agencies that provided the ratings for rated securities include Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Services, Inc. and Fitch Rating Service. When ratings vary, the highest rating is used. Credit ratings of “AA” or better are considered to be high credit quality; credit ratings of “A” are considered high or medium/good quality; and credit ratings of “BBB” are considered to be medium/good credit quality, and the lowest category of investment-grade securities; credit ratings of “BB” and below are lower-rated, noninvestment-grade securities or junk bonds; and credit ratings of “CCC” or below are noninvestment-grade securities that have high default risk. Any credit quality breakdown does not give effect to the impact of any credit derivative investments made by the Fund. Credit ratings are an indication of the risk that a security will default. They do not protect a security from credit risk. Lower-rated bonds typically offer higher yields to help compensate investors for the increased risk associated with them. Among these risks are lower creditworthiness, greater price volatility, more risk to principal and income than with higher-rated securities and increased possibilities of default.

The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The Main Index, Blended Index and MHYMFA have been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the indexes and the average.
2	Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund, Inc. (“Predecessor Fund”) was reorganized into Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund (“Fund”), a series of Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust, as of the close of business on November 10, 2006. Prior to the reorganization, the Fund had no investment operations. The Fund is the successor to the Predecessor Fund. The information presented for periods prior to the close of business on November 10, 2006, refers to the performance of the Predecessor Fund, which after the reorganization is the Fund's performance as a result of the reorganization.
3	The Main Index is a broad, comprehensive, market value-weighted index composed of approximately 55,000 bond issues that are exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to AMT. Eligibility criteria for inclusion in the Main Index include, but are not limited to: the bond issuer must be a state (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and U.S. territories) or a local government or a state or local government entity where interest on the bond is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to the AMT; the bond must be held by a mutual fund for which Standard & Poor's Securities Evaluations, Inc. provides prices; it must be denominated in U.S. dollars and have a minimum par amount of $2 million; and the bond must have a minimum term to maturity and/or call date greater than or equal to one calendar month. The Main Index is rebalanced monthly.

The Main Index is unmanaged, and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
4	The Blended Index is a custom blended index that represents, by market weighting, 25% of the A-rated and higher component of the Main Index, 25% of the BBB-rated component of the Main Index and 50% of the below investment grade (bonds with ratings of less than BBB-/Baa3) component of the Main Index, all with remaining maturities of three years or more. The Blended Index is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses and other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The Blended Index is unmanaged, and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
5	Morningstar figures represent the average of the total returns reported by all the mutual funds designated by Morningstar as falling into the respective category indicated. They do not reflect sales charges.
6	The Fund's Institutional Shares commenced operations on June 11, 2013. For the period prior to the commencement of operations of Institutional Shares, the performance information shown is for the Fund's Class F Shares, adjusted to reflect the expenses of the Fund's Institutional Shares for each year for which the Fund's Institutional Shares expenses would have exceeded the actual expenses paid by the Fund's Class F Shares.

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of five portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of the Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund (the “Fund”), a non-diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. Each portfolio pays its own expenses. The Fund offers five classes of shares: Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class F Shares and Institutional Shares. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting, except on class-specific matters. 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 income from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal AMT for individuals and corporations and state and local taxes.

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities greater than 60 days are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at their cost (adjusted for the accretion of any discount or amortization of any premium) unless the issuer's creditworthiness is impaired or other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the investment's fair value, in which case it would be valued in the same manner as a longer-term security.
■	Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.
■	Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.
■	Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, Federated Investment Management Company (“Adviser”) and certain of the Adviser's affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services and review of price challenges by the Adviser based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified-cost basis. 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 Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares and Class F Shares may bear distribution services fees and other service fees unique to those classes. The detail of the total fund expense waivers of $867,996 is disclosed in various locations in this Note 2 and Note 5.

Annual Shareholder Report

46

For the year ended August 31, 2016, an unaffiliated third-party waived $10,299 of portfolio accounting 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.

Other Service Fees

The Fund may pay other service 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 unaffiliated financial intermediaries or to Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC) for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSSC may voluntarily reimburse the Fund for other service fees. For the year ended August 31, 2016, other service fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Other Service Fees Incurred
Class A Shares	$629,349
Class B Shares	30,108
Class C Shares	174,416
Class F Shares	495,768
TOTAL	$1,329,641

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted using the effective-interest-rate method.

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. As of and during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of August 31, 2016, tax years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

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.

Restricted Securities

The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that either: (a) cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933; or (b) are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. In some cases, when a security cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, the issuer of the restricted security 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 such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund's restricted securities, like other securities, are priced in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.

Additional information on restricted securities held at August 31, 2016, excluding securities purchased under Rule 144A that have been deemed liquid by the Trustees if applicable, is as follows:

Security	Acquisition Date	Cost	Market Value
Non-Profit Preferred Funding Trust I, Partnership, 9/15/2037	10/26/2006 - 2/16/2007	$3,989,000	$309,600
Port Authority for Columbiana County, OH, Solid Waste Facility Revenue Bonds (Series 2004A), 8/1/2034	12/23/2004	$797,831	$8
Port Authority for Columbiana County, OH, Solid Waste Facility Revenue Bonds (Series 2012D), 8/1/2034	8/1/2014 - 8/1/2015	$110,159	$1

Other

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. The Fund applies Investment Company accounting and reporting guidance.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities, open defaulted bonds and partnership adjustments.

Annual Shareholder Report

49

For the year ended August 31, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$(34,261)	$34,261

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net assets were not affected by the reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:

	2016	2015
Tax-exempt income	$24,859,794	$23,815,805
Ordinary income	$3,905	$44,973

As of August 31, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	$650,945
Net unrealized appreciation	$52,263,021
Capital loss carryforwards	$(80,363,882)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities, open defaulted bonds and partnership adjustments.

At August 31, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $621,623,495. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $52,390,044. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $59,771,177 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $7,381,133.

At August 31, 2016, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $80,363,882 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, thereby reducing the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning on or before December 22, 2010, is characterized as short-term and may be carried forward for a maximum of eight tax years (“Carryforward Limit”), whereas a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, retains its character as either short-term or long-term, does not expire and is required to be utilized prior to the losses which have a Carryforward Limit.

The following schedule summarizes the Fund's capital loss carryforwards and expiration years:

Expiration Year	Short-Term	Long-Term	Total

Annual Shareholder Report

51

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 at the following percentages of average daily net assets annually, to compensate FSC:

Share Class Name	Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets of Class
Class A Shares	0.05%
Class B Shares	0.75%
Class C Shares	0.75%
Class F Shares	0.05%

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, distribution services fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Distribution Services Fee Incurred
Class B Shares	$90,325
Class C Shares	523,247
TOTAL	$613,572

For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $147,487 of fees paid by the Fund. When FSC receives fees, it may pay some or all of them to financial intermediaries whose customers purchase shares. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund's Class A Shares and Class F Shares did not incur a distribution services fee; however, each may begin to incur this fee upon approval by the Trustees.

Sales Charges

Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $53,457 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares. FSC also retained $22,042, $19,048, $7,307 and $19,265 of CDSC relating to redemptions of Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares and Class F Shares, respectively.

Other Service Fees

For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSSC received $36,819 of the other service fees disclosed in Note 2.

Annual Shareholder Report

52

Interfund Transactions

During the year ended August 31, 2016, 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 $110,300,000 and $117,650,000, respectively.

Expense Limitation

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates (which may include FSC, FAS and FSSC) on their own initiative have agreed to waive certain amounts of their respective fees and/or reimburse expenses. Total annual fund operating expenses (as shown in the financial highlights, excluding interest expense, extraordinary expenses, line of credit expenses and proxy-related expenses paid by the Fund, if any) paid by the Fund's Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class F Shares and Institutional Shares (after the voluntary waivers and reimbursements) will not exceed 0.89%, 1.64%, 1.64%, 0.89% and 0.64% (the “Fee Limit”), respectively, up to but not including the later of (the “Termination Date”): (a) November 1, 2017; or (b) the date of the Fund's next effective Prospectus. While the Adviser and its applicable affiliates currently do not anticipate terminating or increasing these arrangements prior to the Termination Date, these arrangements may only be terminated or the Fee Limit increased prior to the Termination Date with the agreement of the Trustees.

General

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of certain of the above companies. To efficiently facilitate payment, Directors'/Trustees' fees and certain expenses related to conducting meetings of the Directors/Trustees and other miscellaneous expenses are paid by an affiliate of the Adviser which in due course are reimbursed by the Fund. Such expenses may be included in Accrued and Miscellaneous Expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

6. Investment TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the year ended August 31, 2016, were as follows:

Purchases	$152,497,782
Sales	$58,371,247

7. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

The Fund has 39.4% 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 higher for the holders of high yielding securities because such securities are generally unsecured and often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer.

Annual Shareholder Report

53

8. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

9. INTERFUND LENDING

This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from other participating affiliated funds. As of August 31, 2016, there were no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the program was not utilized.

10. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund as of August 31, 2016, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years or periods in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service 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 March 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016.

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 required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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.

Annual Shareholder Report

56

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 3/1/2016	Ending Account Value 8/31/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual:
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,050.50	$4.59
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,046.60	$8.44

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated Municipal High Yield Advantage Fund (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees, which have indicated 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 an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of an adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to

Annual Shareholder Report

64

institutional and other clients of Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”) for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year, and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Adviser also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Adviser or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and 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 investment objectives; 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); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Adviser in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and

Annual Shareholder Report

65

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 Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

While mindful that courts have cautioned against giving such comparisons too much weight, the Board has found the use of comparisons of the Fund's fees and expenses to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be relevant to its deliberations. In this regard, the Board was presented with, and considered, information regarding the contractual advisory fee rates, net advisory fee rates, total expense ratios and each element of the Fund's total expense ratio (i.e., gross and net advisory fees, custody fees, portfolio accounting fees and transfer agency fees) relative to the Fund's peers. The Board focused on comparisons with other similar mutual funds more heavily than non-mutual fund products or services because it is believed that 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 relevant indicator of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Fund competes.

The Board reviewed the contractual advisory fee rate, net advisory fee rate where partially waived and other expenses of the Fund and noted the position of the Fund's fee rates relative to its peers. In this regard, the Board noted that the contractual advisory fee rate was above the median of the relevant peer group, but the Board noted the applicable waivers and reimbursements, and that the overall expense structure of the Fund remained competitive in the context of other factors considered by the Board.

By contrast, the Senior Officer has reviewed Federated's fees for providing advisory services to products outside the Federated funds (e.g., institutional and separate accounts and sub-adviser services). He concluded that mutual funds and institutional accounts are inherently different products. Those differences include, but are not limited to, different types of targeted investors; being subject to different laws and regulations; different legal structures; different average account sizes and portfolio management techniques made necessary by different cash flows and different associated costs; and the time spent by portfolio managers and their teams, funds financial services, legal, compliance and risk management in reviewing securities pricing, addressing different administrative responsibilities, addressing different degrees of risk associated with management and a variety of different costs. The Senior Officer did not consider the fees for providing advisory services to these outside products to be determinative in judging the appropriateness of mutual fund advisory fees.

Annual Shareholder Report

66

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and the resources of the Adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Adviser's personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Adviser. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

In evaluating the Fund's investment performance, the Board considered performance results in light of the Fund's investment objective, strategies and risks, as disclosed in the Fund's prospectus. The Board particularly considered detailed investment reports on the Fund's performance provided to the Board throughout the year and in connection with the May meetings. The Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated, using data supplied by independent fund ranking organizations, regarding the performance of, and fees charged by, other mutual funds, noting his view that comparisons to fund peer groups may be helpful, though not conclusive, in judging the reasonableness of the proposed fees. The Board considered, in evaluating such comparisons, that in some cases individual funds may exhibit significant and unique differences in their objectives and management techniques when compared to other funds within an industry peer group.

For the periods covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation, the Fund's performance for the three-year and five-year periods was above the median of the relevant peer group, and the Fund's performance was at the median of the relevant peer group for the one-year period. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Adviser and recognized the efforts being taken by the Adviser in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds. This information covered not only the fees under the investment advisory contracts,

Annual Shareholder Report

67

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 information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

Federated furnished information, requested by the Senior Officer, that reported revenues on a fund-by-fund basis and made estimates of the allocation of expenses on a fund-by-fund basis, using allocation methodologies specified by the Senior Officer. The Senior Officer noted that, while these cost allocation reports apply consistent allocation processes, the inherent difficulties in allocating costs continues to cause the Senior Officer to question the precision of the process and to conclude that such reports may be unreliable, since a single change in an allocation estimate may dramatically alter the resulting estimate of cost and/or profitability of a fund and may produce unintended consequences. The allocation information, including the Senior Officer's view that fund-by-fund estimations may be unreliable, was considered in the analysis by the Board.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer's Evaluation also discussed the notion of possible realization of “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger. The Board considered in this regard that the Adviser has made significant and long-term investments in areas that support all of the Federated funds, such as personnel and processes for the portfolio management, shareholder services, compliance, internal audit, and risk management functions, as well as systems technology (including technology relating to cybersecurity), and that the benefits of these efforts (as well as any economies of scale, should they exist) were likely to be enjoyed by the fund family as a whole. The Board noted that the Adviser's investments in these areas are extensive. In addition, the Board considered that Federated and its affiliates have frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and that this has allowed fund shareholders to share potential economies of scale from a fund's inception. Federated, as it does throughout the year, and again in connection with the Board's review, furnished information relative to revenue sharing or adviser paid fees. Federated and the Senior Officer noted that this information

Annual Shareholder Report

68

should be viewed to determine if there was an incentive to either not apply breakpoints or to apply breakpoints at higher levels and should not be viewed to determine the appropriateness of advisory fees, because it would represent marketing and distribution expenses. Finally, the Board also noted the absence of any applicable regulatory or industry guidelines on this subject, which (as discussed in the Senior Officer's Evaluation) is compounded by the lack of any common industry practice or general pattern with respect to structuring fund advisory fees with “breakpoints” that serve to reduce the fee as a fund attains a certain size.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the fund was reasonable. Under these circumstances, no changes were recommended to, and no objection was raised to, the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract.

In its decision to continue an existing investment advisory contract, the Board was 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 investment advisory contract. In particular, the Board recognized that many shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Adviser's industry standing and reputation and with the expectation that the Adviser will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund. Thus, the Board's approval of the investment advisory contract reflected the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Fund. The Board concluded that, in light of the factors discussed above, including the nature, quality and scope of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates, continuation of the investment advisory contract was appropriate.

The Board based its decision to approve the investment 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 were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

The total return of Federated Michigan Intermediate Municipal Trust (the “Fund”), based on net asset value for the 12-month reporting period ended August 31, 2016 (“reporting period”), was 4.82% for its Class A Shares. The 4.82% total return for the reporting period consisted of 2.52% of tax-exempt dividends and price appreciation of 2.30% in the net asset value of the shares.¹The total return of the S&P Municipal Bond Intermediate Index (the “Intermediate Index”),² the Fund's broad based securities market index, was 6.44% during the same period. The total return of the Morningstar Muni Single State Intermediate Funds Average (MMSSIFA),³ a peer group average for the Fund, was 5.17% during the same reporting period. The Fund's and the MMSSIFA's total returns for the most recently completed fiscal year reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses, which were not reflected in the total return of the Intermediate Index.

During the reporting period, the Fund's investment strategy focused on: (a) the effective duration of the portfolio (which indicates the portfolio's sensitivity to changes in interest rates);^4,5 (b) the selection of securities with different maturities (expressed by a yield curve showing the relative yield of similar securities with different maturities); (c) the allocation of the Fund's portfolio among securities of similar issuers (referred to as “sectors”); (d) the credit quality of portfolio securities (which is shown through credit ratings which indicate the risk that securities may default);⁶ and (e) security selection. These were the most significant factors affecting the Fund's performance relative to the Intermediate Index during the reporting period.

Market OVERVIEW

During the reporting period, 10-year Treasury yields decreased from a high of 2.34% in November 2015 to a low of 1.36% in July 2016 and averaged 1.89%. Economic activity in the U.S. expanded at a moderate pace despite the global economic and financial setbacks in recent months. A range of recent economic indicators, including strong job gains, pointed to additional strengthening of the labor market. Inflation showed signs of picking up in recent months; however, it continued to run below the Federal Reserve System's (the “Fed”) two percent longer run objective. This partly reflected declines in energy prices and impacts of the U.S. dollar's strength on non-energy imports. Global economic developments continued to pose risks as turmoil in Chinese financial markets and lower oil prices contributed to concerns about the prospects for global economic growth and a pullback from risky assets. The Fed's decision to raise the federal funds target rate by ¼ percent was widely anticipated by the markets. A downward revision in the expected path of the federal funds target rate was warranted by economic conditions and moved closer to the markets' expectations of the long-run plan.

The vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union (“Brexit”) resulted in immediate asset price volatility and some financial markets, particularly certain foreign exchange markets, experienced brief periods of strained liquidity. Safe haven asset prices appreciated substantially, but broad based market dislocations did not develop. Overall, the negative sentiment surrounding the Brexit outcome was subsequently alleviated by expectations of the central banks being more accommodative. Nevertheless, several long term global risks related to Brexit remained.

Downward pressure on domestic energy activity intensified over the reporting period as oil prices dropped further. The imbalance of crude oil relative to demand remained very high, and it was not expected to resolve quickly. The collapse in the price of oil supported the fixed-income markets by further reducing price pressures and generating concerns that the drop in oil prices might reflect declining demand in a weakening global economy. The support for household spending from lower energy prices was offset by the restraint implied by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar and the possibility of adverse effects from slower economic growth in China.

During the reporting period, developments in Europe continued to be a focus for investors which indirectly affected interest rate levels in the tax-exempt municipal bond market. With regard to Europe, there continued to be downside risks to growth emanating from the region, given its unresolved imbalances, weak economic growth and continued deflationary risks. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the currencies of most advanced economies amid concerns about growth in those countries as well as announcements by several central banks regarding monetary policy actions. Elements underpinning the strength of the U.S. dollar were the increasing prevalence of negative interest rates on sovereign debt in some key European economies and risks to the international economic outlook. The European Central Bank announced that it would expand its asset purchase program.Credit conditions in the municipal bond market continued to be generally solid. Credit quality continued to be overall very stable, and ratios of general obligation bonds to those of comparable Treasury securities rose, partly reflecting the declines in yields on Treasury securities. The default by Puerto Rico and the downgrade of Illinois general obligation bonds both had only a limited effect on the broader municipal market.The municipal bond markets' technical (supply and demand) position was mostly favorable over the reporting period. The issuance of municipal debt was lower than in previous periods as issuers were hesitant to add additional leverage and the economic benefits of refunding existing debt became less advantageous. Flows from investors into intermediate, long and high-yield municipal bonds were positive and broad-based for a significant portion of the reporting period.

The intermittent flight to quality by investors as a result of the unstable global political and economic environment also favored municipal bonds as they were viewed as a safer alternative investment.

The risk of additional municipal issuers becoming distressed remained through the reporting period. Some state and local governments turned to the courts for assistance in lowering their onerous pension liabilities, but responses from the courts were generally not favorable. Any workouts of these concerns are likely to take many years, which will continue to constrain state and local government budgets and limit their capacity to deal with severe infrastructure needs. The ongoing pressures on public pension plans and their unfunded liabilities continued to receive significant scrutiny.

Some positive news about the fiscal position of the states became available during the reporting period and, in some cases, revenues rose sufficiently enough to enable increases in state government spending and employment. These positive events allowed the spread between “AAA”- and “BBB”-rated general obligation debt to narrow by 27 basis points for 30 year maturities during the reporting period. The municipal yield curve also flattened significantly as yields on shorter maturities increased while yields on longer maturities (5 years and longer) declined leading to better total return performance for longer dated municipal bonds.

We found that Michigan's financial condition remained on solid ground in several respects. As it has the last several years, the state approved a balanced budget early for 2016-17. In March S&P revised its outlook on the state's general obligation bonds from positive to stable, while maintaining its rating of “AA”. Moody's “Aa1” (stable outlook) and Fitch's “AA” (stable outlook) ratings were unchanged.

Local credit quality remained mixed during the reporting period. Although generally improving across the state, several negative situations continue to capture headlines. During the reporting period, Detroit moved forward after emerging from bankruptcy in 2014, while Detroit Public Schools was split into two separate entities in an effort to resolve its financial and operational distress. Flint captured headlines as it encountered severe problems with its water system on top of its already deep financial difficulties. Meanwhile, Wayne County saw some stabilization in its financial situation.

Spreads on Michigan State general obligation bonds tightened by 2 to 5 basis points compared to the Thomson Municipal Market Data “AAA” Curve benchmark. Michigan general obligations of 8-years maturity or more saw the most tightening.

The Bond Buyer reported that issuance of Michigan municipal bonds for the reporting period was 4.8% lower than during the prior reporting period. This was in line with national trends.

DURATION

As determined at the end of the reporting period, the Fund's dollar-weighted average duration was 4.5 years. Duration management continued to be a significant component of the Fund's investment strategy. Throughout the reporting period the Fund's duration was generally short compared to the

duration of the Intermediate Index—on average, its duration was 92% of the Intermediate Index. Given that interest declined over the course of the period, the Fund's duration detracted from the Fund's performance relative to the Intermediate Index.

YIELD CURVE and MATURITY

During the reporting period, the yield curve flattened as rates on short bonds rose and rates on longer bonds fell. The Fund's relative underweight position in bonds with more than ten years to maturity (which outperformed due to the flattening) resulted in yield curve positioning that detracted from the Fund's performance relative to the Intermediate Index.

CREDIT QUALITY⁷

During the reporting period, the Fund, according to its strategy, maintained a high-quality portfolio, with over 95% of the portfolio rated in one of the three highest rating categories (“AAA,” “AA” and “A”). The Fund's consequent underweight allocation to “BBB”-rated bonds (which outperformed the Intermediate Index) detracted from the Fund's overall performance versus the Index.

SECTOR Allocation

During the reporting period, sector selection provided a neutral contribution to total return relative to the Intermediate Index. The Fund was aided by overweight positions in a number of outperforming sectors, notably Higher Education, Hospital, Airport, and Water & Sewer Bonds, as well as an underweight allocation to State General Obligations, which underperformed. However, the Fund was hurt by overweights in underperforming sectors, including Pre-Refunded Bonds (bonds for which the principal and interest payments are secured or guaranteed by cash or U.S. Treasury securities held in an escrow account), and Local General Obligations; as well as an underweight allocation to Multi-Family Housing and Other Utilities, each of which outperformed.

SECURITY SELECTION

During the reporting period, security-specific factors included credit rating changes, calls and other idiosyncratic occurrences for individual bonds. These individual items had a negative effect on the Fund's performance versus the Intermediate Index. Additionally, since the Intermediate Index consists of national bonds while the Fund only included securities issued in Michigan, the Fund's return was influenced by conditions which were specific to the state.

4	Duration is a measure of a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations. For purposes of this Management Discussion of Fund Performance, duration is determined using a third-party analytical system.
5	Bond prices are sensitive to changes in interest rates, and a rise in interest rates can cause a decline in their prices.
6	Credit ratings pertain only to the securities in the portfolio and do not protect the Fund shares against market risk.
7	Investment-grade securities and noninvestment-grade securities may either be: (a) rated by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization or rating agency; or (b) unrated securities that the Fund's investment adviser (“Adviser”) believes are of comparable quality. The rating agencies that provided the ratings for rated securities include Standard & Poor's, Moody's Investor Services, Inc. and Fitch Rating Service. When ratings vary, the highest rating is used. Credit ratings of “AA” or better are considered to be high credit quality; credit ratings of “A” are considered high or medium/good quality; and credit ratings of “BBB” are considered to be medium/good credit quality, and the lowest category of investment-grade securities; credit ratings of “BB” and below are lower-rated, noninvestment-grade securities or junk bonds; and credit ratings of “CCC” or below are noninvestment-grade securities that have high default risk. Any credit quality breakdown does not give effect to the impact of any credit derivative investments made by the Fund. Credit ratings are an indication of the risk that a security will default. They do not protect a security from credit risk. Lower rated bonds typically offer higher yields to help compensate investors for the increased risk associated with them. Among these risks are lower creditworthiness, greater price volatility, more risk to principal and income than with higher rated securities and increased possibilities of default.

1	Represents a hypothetical investment of $10,000 in the Fund after deducting the maximum sales charge of 3.00% ($10,000 investment minus $300 sales charge = $9,700). The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The Intermediate Index and the MMSSIFA have been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the index and average.
2	The Intermediate Index consists of bonds in the S&P Municipal Bond Index with a minimum maturity of 3 years and a maximum maturity of 15 years. It is a subindex of the S&P Municipal Bond Index which tracks fixed-rate tax-free bonds and bonds subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). The index includes bonds of all quality—from “AAA” to non-rated, including defaulted bonds—from all sectors of the municipal bond market. The Intermediate Index is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses and other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The Intermediate Index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2016

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of five portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Michigan Intermediate Municipal Trust (the “Fund”), a non-diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. Each portfolio pays its own expenses. The Fund offers one class of shares: Class A Shares. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal regular income tax and the personal income taxes imposed by the state of Michigan and Michigan municipalities. Interest income from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) for individuals and corporations.

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities greater than 60 days are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”).
■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at their cost (adjusted for the accretion of any discount or amortization of any premium), unless the issuer's creditworthiness is impaired or other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the investment's fair value, in which case it would be valued in the same manner as a longer-term security.
■	Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.
■	Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.
■	Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

Annual Shareholder Report

20

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, Federated Investment Management Company (“Adviser”) and certain of the Adviser's affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services, and review of price challenges by the Adviser based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The detail of the total fund expense waivers of $205,800 is disclosed in various locations in this Note 2 and Note 5.

For the year ended August 31, 2016, an unaffiliated third-party waived $7,083 of portfolio accounting fees.

Annual Shareholder Report

21

Other Service Fees

The Fund may pay other service fees up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares to unaffiliated financial intermediaries or to Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC) for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSSC may voluntarily reimburse the Fund for other service fees. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund incurred $314,731 of other service fees.

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted using the effective-interest-rate method.

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. As of during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of August 31, 2016, tax years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

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.

Other

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. The Fund applies Investment Company accounting and reporting guidance.

3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

The following table summarizes share activity:

Year Ended August 31	2016	2015
Shares sold	2,180,293	2,085,445
Shares issued to shareholders in payment of distributions declared	192,469	185,412
Shares redeemed	(2,526,727)	(1,621,047)
NET CHANGE RESULTING FROM CLASS A SHARE TRANSACTIONS	(153,965)	649,810

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

Annual Shareholder Report

22

For the year ended August 31, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$(766)	$766

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net assets were not affected by the reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:

	2016	2015
Tax-exempt income	$3,050,783	$3,257,233
Long-term capital gains	$367,767	$—

As of August 31, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	$2,423
Undistributed long-term capital gains	$298,330
Net unrealized appreciation	$8,363,459

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At August 31, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $122,760,926. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $8,363,459. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $8,373,618 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $10,159.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

The advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser provides for an annual fee equal to 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, the Adviser may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Adviser waived $198,717 of its fee.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. For purposes of determining the appropriate rate breakpoint, “Investment Complex” is defined as all of the Federated Funds subject to a fee under the Administrative Services Agreement. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average daily net assets of the Investment Complex as specified below, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses:

Administrative Fee	Average Daily Net Assets of the Investment Complex
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

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the annualized fee paid to FAS was 0.078% of average daily net assets of the Fund.

Other Service Fees

For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSSC received $2,033 of the other service fees disclosed in Note 2.

Sales Charges

Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $634 of CDSC relating to redemptions of Class A Shares.

Interfund Transactions

During the year ended August 31, 2016, 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 $24,050,000 and $22,250,000, respectively.

Expense Limitation

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates (which may include FAS and FSSC) on their own initiative have agreed to waive certain amounts of their respective fees and/or reimburse expenses. Total annual fund operating expenses (as shown in the financial highlights, excluding interest expense, extraordinary expenses, line of credit expenses and proxy-related expenses paid by the Fund, if any) paid by the Fund's Class A Shares (after the voluntary waivers and reimbursements) will not exceed 0.75% (the “Fee Limit”) up to but not including the later of (the “Termination Date”): (a) November 1, 2017; or (b) the date of the Fund's next effective Prospectus. While the Adviser and its applicable affiliates currently do not anticipate terminating or increasing these arrangements prior to the Termination Date, these arrangements may only be terminated or the Fee Limit increased prior to the Termination Date with the agreement of the Trustees.

General

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of certain of the above companies. To efficiently facilitate payment, Directors'/Trustees' fees and certain expenses related to conducting meetings of the Directors/Trustees and other miscellaneous expenses are paid by an affiliate of the Adviser which in due course are reimbursed by the Fund. Such expenses may be included in Accrued and Miscellaneous Expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

6. Investment TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the year ended August 31, 2016, were as follows:

Purchases	$15,029,151
Sales	$14,395,677

7. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Since the Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at August 31, 2016, 45.3% of the securities in the Portfolio of Investments were backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies. The largest percentage of investments insured by or supported by (backed) a letter of credit from any one institution or agency, was 19.8% of total investments.

8. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

9. INTERFUND LENDING

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc., may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from other participating affiliated funds. As August 31, 2016, there were no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the program was not utilized.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF federated municipal securities income trust and shareholders of federated Michigan intermediate municipal Trust:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated Michigan Intermediate Municipal Trust (the “Fund”), a portfolio of Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust, as of August 31, 2016, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated Michigan Intermediate Municipal Trust as of August 31, 2016, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service 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 March 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016.

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 required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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 3/1/2016	Ending Account Value 8/31/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual	$1,000	$1,017.00	$3.80
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses)	$1,000	$1,021.37	$3.81

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratio of 0.75%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half-year period).

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated Michigan Intermediate Municipal Trust (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees, which have indicated 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 an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of an adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to

Annual Shareholder Report

36

institutional and other clients of Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”) for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year, and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Adviser also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Adviser or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and 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 investment objectives; 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); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Adviser in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and

Annual Shareholder Report

37

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 Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

While mindful that courts have cautioned against giving such comparisons too much weight, the Board has found the use of comparisons of the Fund's fees and expenses to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be relevant to its deliberations. In this regard, the Board was presented with, and considered, information regarding the contractual advisory fee rates, net advisory fee rates, total expense ratios and each element of the Fund's total expense ratio (i.e., gross and net advisory fees, custody fees, portfolio accounting fees and transfer agency fees) relative to the Fund's peers. The Board focused on comparisons with other similar mutual funds more heavily than non-mutual fund products or services because it is believed that 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 relevant indicator of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Fund competes.

The Board reviewed the contractual advisory fee rate, net advisory fee rate where partially waived and other expenses of the Fund and noted the position of the Fund's fee rates relative to its peers. In this regard, the Board noted that the contractual advisory fee rate was below the median of the relevant peer group and the Board was satisfied that the overall expense structure of the Fund remained competitive. ​

By contrast, the Senior Officer has reviewed Federated's fees for providing advisory services to products outside the Federated funds (e.g., institutional and separate accounts and sub-adviser services). He concluded that mutual funds and institutional accounts are inherently different products. Those differences include, but are not limited to, different types of targeted investors; being subject to different laws and regulations; different legal structures; different average account sizes and portfolio management techniques made necessary by different cash flows and different associated costs; and the time spent by portfolio managers and their teams, funds financial services, legal, compliance and risk management in reviewing securities pricing, addressing different administrative responsibilities, addressing different degrees of risk associated with management and a variety of different costs. The Senior Officer did not consider the fees for providing advisory services to these outside products to be determinative in judging the appropriateness of mutual fund advisory fees.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and the resources of the Adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Adviser's personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Adviser. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

In evaluating the Fund's investment performance, the Board considered performance results in light of the Fund's investment objective, strategies and risks, as disclosed in the Fund's prospectus. The Board particularly considered detailed investment reports on the Fund's performance provided to the Board throughout the year and in connection with the May meetings. The Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated, using data supplied by independent fund ranking organizations, regarding the performance of, and fees charged by, other mutual funds, noting his view that comparisons to fund peer groups may be helpful, though not conclusive, in judging the reasonableness of the proposed fees. The Board considered, in evaluating such comparisons, that in some cases individual funds may exhibit significant and unique differences in their objectives and management techniques when compared to other funds within an industry peer group.

The Fund's performance fell below the median of the relevant peer group for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Adviser and recognized the efforts being taken by the Adviser in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds. This information covered not only the fees under the investment advisory contracts, but also fees received by Federated's subsidiaries for providing other services to

Annual Shareholder Report

39

the Federated funds under separate contracts (e.g., for serving as the Federated funds' administrator). The information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

Federated furnished information, requested by the Senior Officer, that reported revenues on a fund-by-fund basis and made estimates of the allocation of expenses on a fund-by-fund basis, using allocation methodologies specified by the Senior Officer. The Senior Officer noted that, while these cost allocation reports apply consistent allocation processes, the inherent difficulties in allocating costs continues to cause the Senior Officer to question the precision of the process and to conclude that such reports may be unreliable, since a single change in an allocation estimate may dramatically alter the resulting estimate of cost and/or profitability of a fund and may produce unintended consequences. The allocation information, including the Senior Officer's view that fund-by-fund estimations may be unreliable, was considered in the analysis by the Board.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer's Evaluation also discussed the notion of possible realization of “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger. The Board considered in this regard that the Adviser has made significant and long-term investments in areas that support all of the Federated funds, such as personnel and processes for the portfolio management, shareholder services, compliance, internal audit, and risk management functions, as well as systems technology (including technology relating to cybersecurity), and that the benefits of these efforts (as well as any economies of scale, should they exist) were likely to be enjoyed by the fund family as a whole. The Board noted that the Adviser's investments in these areas are extensive. In addition, the Board considered that Federated and its affiliates have frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and that this has allowed fund shareholders to share potential economies of scale from a fund's inception. Federated, as it does throughout the year, and again in connection with the Board's review, furnished information relative to revenue sharing or adviser paid fees. Federated and the Senior Officer noted that this information should be viewed to determine if there was an incentive to either not apply

breakpoints or to apply breakpoints at higher levels and should not be viewed to determine the appropriateness of advisory fees, because it would represent marketing and distribution expenses. Finally, the Board also noted the absence of any applicable regulatory or industry guidelines on this subject, which (as discussed in the Senior Officer's Evaluation) is compounded by the lack of any common industry practice or general pattern with respect to structuring fund advisory fees with “breakpoints” that serve to reduce the fee as a fund attains a certain size.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the fund was reasonable. Under these circumstances, no changes were recommended to, and no objection was raised to, the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract.

In its decision to continue an existing investment advisory contract, the Board was 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 investment advisory contract. In particular, the Board recognized that many shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Adviser's industry standing and reputation and with the expectation that the Adviser will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund. Thus, the Board's approval of the investment advisory contract reflected the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Fund. The Board concluded that, in light of the factors discussed above, including the nature, quality and scope of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates, continuation of the investment advisory contract was appropriate.

The Board based its decision to approve the investment 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 were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

The total return of Federated New York Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), based on net asset value for the 12-month reporting period ended August 31, 2016 (“reporting period”), was 6.72% for the Fund's A Shares and 5.92% for the Fund's B Shares. The 6.72% total return of the A Shares for the reporting period consisted of 3.04% of tax-exempt dividends and reinvestments and price appreciation of 3.68% in the net asset value of the shares.¹ The total return for the S&P Municipal Bond New York Index (the “NY Index”),² the Fund's broad-based securities market index, was 6.69%, during the same period. The total return for the S&P Municipal Bond NY, Investment Grade, 3-Year Plus Sub-Index (NYIG3 Index),³ a secondary benchmark for the Fund, was 7.44%, and the total return of the Morningstar Muni New York Long Funds Average (MMNYLFA),⁴ a peer group for the Fund, was 7.32% during the same period. The Fund's and MMNYLFA's total returns for the most recently completed fiscal year reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses, which were not reflected in the total return of the NY Index or NYIG3 Index.

During the reporting period, the Fund's investment strategy focused on: (a) the effective duration of its portfolio (which indicates the portfolio's sensitivity to changes in interest rates);^5,6 (b) the allocation of the portfolio among securities of similar issuers (referred to as “sectors”); and (c) the credit quality of portfolio securities (which is shown through credit ratings which indicate the risk that securities may default).⁷ These were the most significant factors affecting the Fund's performance relative to the NYIG3 Index during the reporting period.

The following discussion focuses on the performance of the Fund's Class A Shares.

MARKET OVERVIEW

During the reporting period, 10-year Treasury yields decreased from a high of 2.34% in November of 2015 to a low of 1.36% in July of 2016 and averaged 1.89%. Economic activity in the U.S. expanded at a moderate pace despite the global economic and financial setbacks in recent months. A range of recent economic indicators, including strong job gains, pointed to additional strengthening of the labor market. Inflation showed signs of picking up in recent months; however, it continued to run below the Federal Reserve System's (the “Fed”) two percent longer run objective. This partly reflected declines in energy prices and impacts of the U.S. dollar's strength on non-energy imports. Global economic developments continued to pose risks as turmoil in Chinese financial markets and lower oil prices contributed to concerns about the prospects for global economic growth and a pullback from risky assets. The Fed's decision to raise the federal funds target rate by 1/4 percent was widely anticipated by the

markets. A downward revision in the expected path of the federal funds target rate was warranted by economic conditions and moved closer to the markets' expectations of the long-run plan.

The vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union (“Brexit”) resulted in immediate asset price volatility and some financial markets, particularly certain foreign exchange markets, experienced brief periods of strained liquidity. Safe haven asset prices appreciated substantially, but broad based market dislocations did not develop. Overall, the negative sentiment surrounding the Brexit outcome was subsequently alleviated by expectations of the central banks being more accommodative. Nevertheless, several long-term global risks related to Brexit remained.

Downward pressure on domestic energy activity intensified over the reporting period as oil prices dropped further. The imbalance of crude oil relative to demand remained very high, and it was not expected to resolve quickly. The collapse in the price of oil supported the fixed-income markets by further reducing price pressures and generating concerns that the drop in oil prices might reflect declining demand in a weakening global economy. The support for household spending from lower energy prices was offset by the restraint implied by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar and the possibility of adverse effects from slower economic growth in China.

During the reporting period, developments in Europe continued to be a focus for investors which indirectly affected interest rate levels in the tax-exempt municipal bond market. With regard to Europe, there continued to be downside risks to growth emanating from the region, given its unresolved imbalances, weak economic growth and continued deflationary risks. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the currencies of most advanced economies amid concerns about growth in those countries as well as announcements by several central banks regarding monetary policy actions. Elements underpinning the strength of the U.S. dollar were the increasing prevalence of negative interest rates on sovereign debt in some key European economies and risks to the international economic outlook. The European Central Bank announced that it would expand its asset purchase program.

Credit conditions in the municipal bond market continued to be generally solid. Credit quality continued to be overall very stable, and ratios of general obligation bonds to those of comparable Treasury securities rose, partly reflecting the declines in yields on Treasury securities. The default by Puerto Rico and the downgrade of Illinois general obligation bonds both had only a limited effect on the broader municipal market.The municipal bond markets' technical (supply and demand) position was mostly favorable over the reporting period. The issuance of municipal debt was lower than in previous periods as issuers were hesitant to add additional leverage and the economic benefits of refunding existing debt became less advantageous. Flows from investors into intermediate, long and high yield municipal bonds were positive and broad-based for a significant portion of the reporting period.

The intermittent flight to quality by investors as a result of the unstable global political and economic environment also favored municipal bonds as they were viewed as a safer alternative investment.

The risk of additional municipal issuers becoming distressed remained through the reporting period. Some state and local governments turned to the courts for assistance in lowering their onerous pension liabilities, but responses from the courts were generally not favorable. Any workouts of these concerns are likely to take many years, which will continue to constrain state and local government budgets and limit their capacity to deal with severe infrastructure needs. The ongoing pressures on public pension plans and their unfunded liabilities continued to receive significant scrutiny.

Some positive news about the fiscal position of the states became available during the reporting period and, in some cases, revenues rose sufficiently to enable increases in state government spending and employment. These positive events allowed the spread between “AAA”- and “BBB”-rated general obligation debt to narrow by 27 basis points for 30 year maturities during the reporting period. The municipal yield curve also flattened significantly as yields on shorter maturities increased while yields on longer maturities (5 years and longer) declined leading to better total return performance for longer dated municipal bonds.

New York is the third largest U.S. state by population and has a large and diverse economy with high per capita income and a gross state product of over $1.2 trillion dollars. The state has a well below average leverage position with respect to its pension liabilities. The state implemented pension reforms in 2012 for all new employees that raised the retirement age, increased employee contributions and increased the number of years included in the calculation for final average salary on which pension benefits are based. New York followed a number of strong management practices, including multi-year financial planning and consensus revenue forecasting. The state had a long record of late budget adoption but passed its budget on time for almost every year of the last decade. The performance of the financial services industry is very important to New York's credit profile. The state's finances are highly sensitive to income tax payments from the wealthy and to employment in the high paid securities industry which are centered in New York City.

DURATION

As determined at the end of the reporting period, the Fund's dollar-weighted average duration for the reporting period was 4.8 years. Duration management continued to be a significant component of the Fund's investment strategy. The Fund's average duration was shorter than the average duration of the NYIG3 Index during the reporting period. Tax-exempt municipal bond yields decreased during most of the reporting period and decreased more for bonds with longer maturities as the yield curve significantly flattened during the reporting period. Bonds with a longer duration outperformed bonds with a shorter duration due

to their differences in interest rate volatility. As a result of the Fund's underweight to bonds with longer durations relative to those included in the NYIG3 Index, duration had a negative impact on Fund performance over the reporting period. The Fund had a larger allocation to Pre-Refunded bonds than the NYIG3 Index. This sector underperformed the NYIG3 Index during the reporting period and provided negative excess return relative to the NYIG3 Index. Pre-Refunded bonds are escrowed in Treasury securities until their most recent call date and have less sensitivity to changes in interest rates as a result. As interest rates declined over the reporting period, Pre-Refunded bonds underperformed relative to the benchmark.

SeCTOR ALLOCATION

During the reporting period, sector allocation negatively contributed to the excess return of the Fund. The Fund maintained a lower portfolio allocation to Water and Sewer and Public Power revenue bonds than the benchmark. These lesser allocations hurt the Fund's performance due to the outperformance of these sectors relative to the NYIG3 Index. The Fund had larger allocations to Senior Care and Industrial Development revenue bonds than the NYIG3 Index. These sectors outperformed the NYIG3 Index during the reporting period and provided positive excess return relative to the NYIG3 Index.

credit QUALITY⁸

During the reporting period, the Fund received a significant positive contribution to excess return from credit selection as investor appetite for yield in the low interest rate environment increased municipal bond fund inflows and resulted in outperformance of bonds rated “A” and “BBB” (or unrated bonds of comparable quality) relative to bonds rated in the higher rating categories (or unrated bonds of comparable quality). Bonds in the noninvestment-grade category, below “BBB,” also outperformed the higher rating categories. With the decrease in credit spreads during the reporting period, and to a lesser extent for “AAA” and “AA” rated (or unrated comparable quality) debt, the Fund's overweight position, relative to the NYIG3 Index, in “A” and “BBB” (or unrated comparable quality) debt during the reporting period had a positive impact on the Fund's performance, as the yield on “A” and “BBB” (or unrated comparable quality) debt decreased to a greater extent than for other investment-grade securities. The Fund's exposure to noninvestment-grade debt added positive excess return as these securities also experienced spread tightening versus higher quality debt over the reporting period. Non-investment grade sectors that performed particularly well over the reporting period included Healthcare and Tobacco Settlement Debt.

Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations. For purposes of this Management's Discussion of Fund Performance, duration is determined using a third-party analytical system.

7	Credit ratings pertain only to the securities in the portfolio and do not protect Fund shares against market risk.
8	Investment-grade securities and noninvestment-grade securities may either be: (a) rated by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization or rating agency; or (b) unrated securities that the Fund's investment adviser (“Adviser”) believes are of comparable quality. The rating agencies that provided the ratings for rated securities include Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Services, Inc. and Fitch Rating Service. When ratings vary, the highest rating is used. Credit ratings of “AA” or better are considered to be high credit quality; credit ratings of “A” are considered high or medium/good quality; and credit ratings of “BBB” are considered to be medium/good credit quality, and the lowest category of investment-grade securities; credit ratings of “BB” and below are lower-rated, noninvestment-grade securities or junk bonds; and credit ratings of “CCC” or below are noninvestment-grade securities that have high default risk. Any credit quality breakdown does not give effect to the impact of any credit derivative investments made by the Fund. Credit ratings are an indication of the risk that a security will default. They do not protect a security from credit risk. Lower-rated bonds typically offer higher yields to help compensate investors for the increased risk associated with them. Among these risks are lower creditworthiness, greater price volatility, more risk to principal and income than with higher-rated securities and increased possibilities of default.

1	Represents a hypothetical investment of $10,000 in the Fund after deducting applicable sales charges: For Class A Shares, the maximum sales charge of 4.50% ($10,000 investment minus $450 sales charge = $9,550); For Class B Shares, the maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 5.50% on any redemption of shares held up to one year from the purchase date. The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The NY Index, NYIG3 Index and MMNYLFA have been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the indexes and average.
2	The NY Index consists of bonds in the S&P Municipal Bond New York Index (“Main Index”) that have been issued by the state of New York or local governments or state or local government entities within New York. The Main Index is a broad, comprehensive, market value-weighted index comprised of approximately 55,000 bond issues that are exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). Eligibility criteria for inclusion in the Main Index include, but are not limited to: the bond issuer must be a state (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and U.S. territories) or a local government or a state or agency where interest on the bond is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to the AMT; the bond must be held by a mutual fund for which Standard & Poor's Securities Evaluations, Inc. provides prices; it must be denominated in U.S. dollars and have a minimum par amount of $2 million; and the bond must have a minimum term to maturity and/or call date greater than or equal to one calendar month. The Main Index is rebalanced monthly. The NY Index is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses and other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The NY Index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
3	The NYIG3 Index represents the portion of the NY Index composed solely of bonds that are rated BBB-/Baa3 or higher with remaining maturities of more than three years that are not subject to AMT. The NYIG3 Index is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses and other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The NYIG3 Index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2016

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of five portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated New York Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), a non-diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. Each portfolio pays its own expenses. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Class A Shares and Class B Shares. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting, except on class-specific matters. Class B shares were closed to new accounts/investors on June 1, 2015, and to new purchases/exchanges by existing shareholders on August 1, 2015. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal regular income tax (federal regular income tax does not include the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT)), and the personal income taxes imposed by the state of New York and New York municipalities. Interest income from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal AMT for individuals and corporations.

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities greater than 60 days are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at their cost (adjusted for the accretion of any discount or amortization of any premium), unless the issuer's creditworthiness is impaired or other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the investment's fair value, in which case it would be valued in the same manner as a longer-term security.
■	Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.
■	Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.
■	For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

Annual Shareholder Report

20

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, Federated Investment Management Company (“Adviser”) and certain of the Adviser's affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services and review of price challenges by the Adviser based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income, if any, are declared daily 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 Class A Shares and Class B Shares may bear distribution services fees and other service fees unique to those classes. The detail of the total fund expense waivers and reimbursements of $189,519 is disclosed in various locations in this Note 2 and Note 5.

Annual Shareholder Report

21

For the year ended August 31, 2016, an unaffiliated third-party waived $7,083 of portfolio accounting 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.

Other Service Fees

The Fund may pay other service fees up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares and Class B Shares to unaffiliated financial intermediaries or to Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC) for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSSC may voluntarily reimburse the Fund for other service fees. In addition, unaffiliated third-party financial intermediaries may waive other service fees. This waiver can be modified or terminated at any time. For the year ended August 31, 2016, other service fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Other Service Fees Incurred	Other Service Fees Reimbursed
Class A Shares	$75,134	$(2,985)
Class B Shares	4,971	—
TOTAL	$80,105	$(2,985)

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted using the effective-interest-rate method.

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. As of and during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of August 31, 2016, tax years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

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.

Annual Shareholder Report

22

Restricted Securities

The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that either: (a) cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933; or (b) are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. In some cases, when a security cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, the issuer of the restricted security 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 such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. Restricted securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act.

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases and sells financial futures contracts to increase return and to manage duration risk and yield curve risk. Upon entering into a financial 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 the changes in the value of the underlying securities. There is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures contracts are exchange traded and the exchange's clearing house, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures contracts, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

At August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding futures contracts.

Other

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. The Fund applies Investment Company accounting and reporting guidance.

NET CHANGE RESULTING FROM TOTAL FUND SHARE TRANSACTIONS	141,760	$1,488,652	43,677	$461,722

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities and expiration of capital loss carryforward.

For the year ended August 31, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Paid-In Capital	Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$(239,378)	$(3,837)	$243,215

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net assets were not affected by the reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:

	2016	2015
Tax-exempt income	$912,271	$920,173
Ordinary income	$—	$12,715

As of August 31, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	$74
Net unrealized appreciation	$2,505,408
Capital loss carryforwards	$(2,609,302)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for defaulted securities and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

Annual Shareholder Report

24

At August 31, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $30,485,621. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $2,505,408. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $2,506,881 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $1,473.

At August 31, 2016, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $2,609,302 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, thereby reducing the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning on or before December 22, 2010, is characterized as short-term and may be carried forward for a maximum of eight tax years (“Carryforward Limit”), whereas a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, retains its character as either short-term or long-term, does not expire and is required to be utilized prior to the losses which have a Carryforward Limit.

The following schedule summarizes the Fund's capital loss carryforwards and expiration years:

Expiration Year	Short-Term	Long-Term	Total
No Expiration	$64,175	41,862	$106,037
2017	$958,822	NA	$958,822
2018	$1,218,820	NA	$1,218,820
2019	$325,623	NA	$325,623

Capital loss carryforwards of $239,378 expired during the year ended August 31, 2016.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

The advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser provides for an annual fee equal to 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, the Adviser may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee and/or reimburse other operating expenses. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Adviser, voluntarily waived its entire fee of $128,202 and voluntarily reimbursed $51,249 of other operating expenses.

Annual Shareholder Report

25

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. For purposes of determining the appropriate rate breakpoint, “Investment Complex” is defined as all of the Federated Funds subject to a fee under the Administrative Services Agreement. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average daily net assets of the Investment Complex as specified below, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses:

Administrative Fee	Average Daily Net Assets of the Investment Complex
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

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the annualized fee paid to FAS was 0.078% of average 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 and Class B Shares to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses at the following percentages of average daily net assets annually, to compensate FSC:

Share Class Name	Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets of Class
Class A Shares	0.05%
Class B Shares	0.75%

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, distribution services fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Distribution Services Fee Incurred
Class B Shares	$14,911

When FSC receives fees, it may pay some or all of them to financial intermediaries whose customers purchase shares. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $11,010 of fees paid by the Fund. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund's Class A Shares did not incur a distribution services fee; however it may begin to incur this fee upon approval of the Trustees.

Other Service Fees

For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSSC received $4,955 and reimbursed $2,985 of the other service fees disclosed in Note 2.

Annual Shareholder Report

26

Sales Charges

Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $4,527 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares. FSC also retained $1,469 of CDSC relating to redemptions of Class B Shares.

Interfund Transactions

During the year ended August 31, 2016, 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 $7,650,000 and $7,700,000, respectively.

Expense Limitation

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates (which may include FSC, FAS and FSSC) on their own initiative have agreed to waive certain amounts of their respective fees and/or reimburse expenses. Total annual fund operating expenses (as shown in the financial highlights, excluding interest expense, extraordinary expenses, line of credit expenses and proxy-related expenses paid by the Fund, if any) paid by the Fund's Class A Shares and Class B Shares (after the voluntary waivers and reimbursements) will not exceed 0.76% and 1.52% (the “Fee Limit”), respectively, up to but not including the later of (the “Termination Date”): (a) November 1, 2017; or (b) the date of the Fund's next effective Prospectus. While the Adviser and its applicable affiliates currently do not anticipate terminating or increasing these arrangements prior to the Termination Date, these arrangements may only be terminated or the Fee Limit increased prior to the Termination Date with the agreement of the Trustees.

General

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of certain of the above companies. To efficiently facilitate payment, Directors'/Trustees' fees and certain expenses related to conducting meetings of the Directors/Trustees and other miscellaneous expenses are paid by an affiliate of the Adviser which in due course are reimbursed by the Fund. Such expenses may be included in Accrued and Miscellaneous Expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

6. Investment TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the year ended August 31, 2016, were as follows:

Purchases	$4,622,797
Sales	$2,900,366

7. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Since the Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at August 31, 2016, 4.0% of the securities in the Portfolio of Investments were backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies.

Annual Shareholder Report

27

8. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

9. INTERFUND LENDING

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc., may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from other participating affiliated funds. As of August 31, 2016, there were no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the program was not utilized.

10. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016, 100% of distributions from net investment income is exempt from federal income tax, other than the federal AMT.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF federated municipal securities income trust and shareholders of federated New york municipal income FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated New York Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), a portfolio of Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust, as of August 31, 2016, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated New York Municipal Income Fund as of August 31, 2016, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service 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 March 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016.

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 required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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.

Annual Shareholder Report

30

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 3/1/2016	Ending Account Value 8/31/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual:
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,034.50	$3.89
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,030.60	$7.76
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses):
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,021.32	$3.86
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,017.50	$7.71

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half-year period). The annualized net expense ratios are as follows:

Class A Shares	0.76%
Class B Shares	1.52%

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated New York Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees, which have indicated 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 an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of an adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to

38

institutional and other clients of Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”) for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year, and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Adviser also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Adviser or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and 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 investment objectives; 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); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Adviser in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and

Annual Shareholder Report

39

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 Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

While mindful that courts have cautioned against giving such comparisons too much weight, the Board has found the use of comparisons of the Fund's fees and expenses to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be relevant to its deliberations. In this regard, the Board was presented with, and considered, information regarding the contractual advisory fee rates, net advisory fee rates, total expense ratios and each element of the Fund's total expense ratio (i.e., gross and net advisory fees, custody fees, portfolio accounting fees and transfer agency fees) relative to the Fund's peers. The Board focused on comparisons with other similar mutual funds more heavily than non-mutual fund products or services because it is believed that 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 relevant indicator of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Fund competes.

It was noted in the materials for the Board meeting that for the period covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation, the Fund's investment advisory fee was waived in its entirety. The Board reviewed the contractual advisory fee rate, net advisory fee rate and other expenses of the Fund with the Adviser and noted the position of the Fund's fee rates relative to its peers. In this regard, the Board noted that the contractual advisory fee rate was below the median of the relevant peer group and the Board was satisfied that the overall expense structure of the Fund remained competitive.

By contrast, the Senior Officer has reviewed Federated's fees for providing advisory services to products outside the Federated funds (e.g., institutional and separate accounts and sub-adviser services). He concluded that mutual funds and institutional accounts are inherently different products. Those differences include, but are not limited to, different types of targeted investors; being subject to different laws and regulations; different legal structures; different average account sizes and portfolio management techniques made necessary by different cash flows and different associated costs; and the time spent by portfolio managers and their teams, funds financial services, legal, compliance and risk management in reviewing securities pricing, addressing different administrative

Annual Shareholder Report

40

responsibilities, addressing different degrees of risk associated with management and a variety of different costs. The Senior Officer did not consider the fees for providing advisory services to these outside products to be determinative in judging the appropriateness of mutual fund advisory fees.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and the resources of the Adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Adviser's personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Adviser. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

In evaluating the Fund's investment performance, the Board considered performance results in light of the Fund's investment objective, strategies and risks, as disclosed in the Fund's prospectus. The Board particularly considered detailed investment reports on the Fund's performance provided to the Board throughout the year and in connection with the May meetings. The Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated, using data supplied by independent fund ranking organizations, regarding the performance of, and fees charged by, other mutual funds, noting his view that comparisons to fund peer groups may be helpful, though not conclusive, in judging the reasonableness of the proposed fees. The Board considered, in evaluating such comparisons, that in some cases individual funds may exhibit significant and unique differences in their objectives and management techniques when compared to other funds within an industry peer group.

The Fund's performance fell below the median of the relevant peer group for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Adviser and recognized the efforts being taken by the Adviser in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

Annual Shareholder Report

41

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds. This information covered not only the fees under the investment 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 information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

Federated furnished information, requested by the Senior Officer, that reported revenues on a fund-by-fund basis and made estimates of the allocation of expenses on a fund-by-fund basis, using allocation methodologies specified by the Senior Officer. The Senior Officer noted that, while these cost allocation reports apply consistent allocation processes, the inherent difficulties in allocating costs continues to cause the Senior Officer to question the precision of the process and to conclude that such reports may be unreliable, since a single change in an allocation estimate may dramatically alter the resulting estimate of cost and/or profitability of a fund and may produce unintended consequences. The allocation information, including the Senior Officer's view that fund-by-fund estimations may be unreliable, was considered in the analysis by the Board.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer's Evaluation also discussed the notion of possible realization of “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger. The Board considered in this regard that the Adviser has made significant and long-term investments in areas that support all of the Federated funds, such as personnel and processes for the portfolio management, shareholder services, compliance, internal audit, and risk management functions, as well as systems technology (including technology relating to cybersecurity), and that the benefits of these efforts (as well as any economies of scale, should they exist) were likely to be enjoyed by the fund family as a whole. The Board noted that the Adviser's investments in these areas are extensive. In addition, the Board considered that Federated and its affiliates have frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and that this has

Annual Shareholder Report

42

allowed fund shareholders to share potential economies of scale from a fund's inception. Federated, as it does throughout the year, and again in connection with the Board's review, furnished information relative to revenue sharing or adviser paid fees. Federated and the Senior Officer noted that this information should be viewed to determine if there was an incentive to either not apply breakpoints or to apply breakpoints at higher levels and should not be viewed to determine the appropriateness of advisory fees, because it would represent marketing and distribution expenses. Finally, the Board also noted the absence of any applicable regulatory or industry guidelines on this subject, which (as discussed in the Senior Officer's Evaluation) is compounded by the lack of any common industry practice or general pattern with respect to structuring fund advisory fees with “breakpoints” that serve to reduce the fee as a fund attains a certain size.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the fund was reasonable. Under these circumstances, no changes were recommended to, and no objection was raised to, the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract.

In its decision to continue an existing investment advisory contract, the Board was 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 investment advisory contract. In particular, the Board recognized that many shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Adviser's industry standing and reputation and with the expectation that the Adviser will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund. Thus, the Board's approval of the investment advisory contract reflected the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Fund. The Board concluded that, in light of the factors discussed above, including the nature, quality and scope of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates, continuation of the investment advisory contract was appropriate.

The Board based its decision to approve the investment 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 were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

The total return for S&P Municipal Bond OH, Investment Grade, 3-Year Plus Index (OHIG3 Index),³ a secondary index for the Fund, was 7.88%, and the total return of the Morningstar Muni Ohio Funds Average (MMOFA),⁴ a peer group average for the Fund, was 6.25% during the same period. The Fund's and the MMOFA's total return for the most recently completed fiscal year reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses, which were not reflected in the total return of the OH Index and OHIG3 Index.

During the reporting period, the Fund's investment strategy focused on: (a) the effective duration of its portfolio (which indicates the portfolio's sensitivity to changes in interest rates);^5,6 (b) the allocation of the Fund's portfolio among securities of similar issuers (referred to as “sectors”); and (c) the credit quality of portfolio securities (which is shown through credit ratings which indicate the risk that securities may default).⁷ These were the most significant factors affecting the Fund's performance relative to the OHIG3 Index during the reporting period.

The following discussion focuses on the performance of the Fund's Class A Shares.

MARKET OVERVIEW

During the reporting period, 10-year Treasury yields decreased from a high of 2.34% in November of 2015 to a low of 1.36% in July of 2016 and averaged 1.89%. Economic activity in the U.S. expanded at a moderate pace despite the global economic and financial setbacks in recent months. A range of recent economic indicators, including strong job gains, pointed to additional strengthening of the labor market. Inflation showed signs of picking up in recent months; however, it continued to run below the Federal Reserve System's (the “Fed”) two percent longer run objective. This partly reflected declines in energy prices and impacts of the U.S. dollar's strength on non-energy imports. Global economic developments continued to pose risks as turmoil in Chinese financial markets and lower oil prices contributed to concerns about the prospects for global economic growth and a pullback from risky assets. The Fed's decision to raise the federal funds target rate by 1/4 percent was widely anticipated by the

Annual Shareholder Report

1

markets. A downward revision in the expected path of the federal funds target rate was warranted by economic conditions and moved closer to the markets' expectations of the long-run plan.

The vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union (“Brexit”) resulted in immediate asset price volatility and some financial markets, particularly certain foreign exchange markets, experienced brief periods of strained liquidity. Safe haven asset prices appreciated substantially, but broad based market dislocations did not develop. Overall, the negative sentiment surrounding the Brexit outcome was subsequently alleviated by expectations of the central banks being more accommodative. Nevertheless, several long-term global risks related to Brexit remained.

Downward pressure on domestic energy activity intensified over the reporting period as oil prices dropped further. The imbalance of crude oil relative to demand remained very high, and it was not expected to resolve quickly. The collapse in the price of oil supported the fixed-income markets by further reducing price pressures and generating concerns that the drop in oil prices might reflect declining demand in a weakening global economy. The support for household spending from lower energy prices was offset by the restraint implied by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar and the possibility of adverse effects from slower economic growth in China.

During the reporting period, developments in Europe continued to be a focus for investors which indirectly affected interest rate levels in the tax-exempt municipal bond market. With regard to Europe, there continued to be downside risks to growth emanating from the region, given its unresolved imbalances, weak economic growth and continued deflationary risks. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the currencies of most advanced economies amid concerns about growth in those countries as well as announcements by several central banks regarding monetary policy actions. Elements underpinning the strength of the U.S. dollar were the increasing prevalence of negative interest rates on sovereign debt in some key European economies and risks to the international economic outlook. The European Central Bank announced that it would expand its asset purchase program.

Credit conditions in the municipal bond market continued to be generally solid. Credit quality continued to be overall very stable, and ratios of general obligation bonds to those of comparable Treasury securities rose, partly reflecting the declines in yields on Treasury securities. The default by Puerto Rico and the downgrade of Illinois general obligation bonds both had only a limited effect on the broader municipal market.

The municipal bond markets' technical (supply and demand) position was mostly favorable over the reporting period. The issuance of municipal debt was lower than in previous periods as issuers were hesitant to add additional leverage and the economic benefits of refunding existing debt became less advantageous. Flows from investors into intermediate, long and high yield municipal bonds were positive and broad-based for a significant portion of the reporting period.

The intermittent flight to quality by investors as a result of the unstable global political and economic environment also favored municipal bonds as they were viewed as a safer alternative investment.

The risk of additional municipal issuers becoming distressed remained through the reporting period. Some state and local governments turned to the courts for assistance in lowering their onerous pension liabilities, but responses from the courts were generally not favorable. Any workouts of these concerns are likely to take many years, which will continue to constrain state and local government budgets and limit their capacity to deal with severe infrastructure needs. The ongoing pressures on public pension plans and their unfunded liabilities continued to receive significant scrutiny.

Some positive news about the fiscal position of the states became available during the reporting period and, in some cases, revenues rose sufficiently enough to enable increases in state government spending and employment. These positive events allowed the spread between “AAA”- and “BBB”-rated general obligation debt to narrow by 27 basis points for 30 year maturities during the reporting period. The municipal yield curve also flattened significantly as yields on shorter maturities increased while yields on longer maturities (5 years and longer) declined leading to better total return performance for longer dated municipal bonds.

Ohio is the 7^th largest state by population in the United States and its gross domestic product per capita also ranks 7^th among the states. The state's economy remained stable and regained many of the jobs lost from the recession. Ohio's job growth was below the national average after an initially strong post-recession recovery. The manufacturing and energy sector showed some signs of softening with better growth in the financial services and health care sectors during the reporting period. The state's conservative budget management and continued growth have maintained solid financial performance and allowed for the absorption of several tax reforms that date back to fiscal 2012. The state maintained high levels of internal liquidity, moderate and affordable long term liabilities during the reporting period and a statutory requirement to deposit year end surplus revenues into a budget stabilization fund.

DURATION

As determined at the end of the reporting period, the Fund's dollar-weighted average duration for the reporting period was 4.4 years. Duration management continued to be a significant component of the Fund's investment strategy. The Fund's average duration was longer than the average duration of the OHIG3 Index during the reporting period. Tax-exempt municipal bond yields decreased during most of the reporting period and decreased more for bonds with longer maturities as the yield curve significantly flattened during the reporting period. Bonds with a longer duration outperformed bonds with a shorter duration due to their differences in interest rate volatility. As a result of the Fund's

Annual Shareholder Report

3

underweight to bonds with longer durations relative to those included in the OHIG3 Index, duration had a significant negative impact on Fund performance over the reporting period.

SECTOR allocation

During the reporting period, sector allocation negatively contributed to the excess return of the Fund. The Fund had larger allocation to Pre-Refunded bonds than the OHIG3 Index. This sector underperformed the OHIG3 Index during the reporting period and provided negative excess return relative to the OHIG3 Index. Pre-Refunded bonds are escrowed in Treasury securities until their most recent call date and have less sensitivity to changes in interest rates as a result. As interest rates declined over the reporting period, Pre-Refunded bonds underperformed relative to the benchmark. The Fund maintained a higher portfolio allocation to Dedicated Tax and Senior Care revenue bonds. These allocations helped the Fund's performance due to the outperformance of these sectors relative to the OHIG3 Index.

credit QUALITY⁸

During the reporting period, investor appetite for yield in the low interest rate environment increased municipal bond fund inflows and resulted in outperformance of bonds rated “A” and “BBB” (or unrated bonds of comparable quality) relative to bonds rated in the higher rating categories (or unrated bonds of comparable quality). Bonds in the noninvestment-grade category, below “BBB,” also outperformed the higher rating categories.⁷ With the decrease in credit spreads during the reporting period, and to a lesser extent for “AAA” and “AA” rated (or unrated comparable quality) debt, the Fund's overweight position, relative to the SPMBII, in “A” and “BBB” (or unrated comparable quality) debt during the reporting period had a positive impact on the Fund's performance, as the yield on “A” and “BBB” (or unrated comparable quality) debt decreased to a greater extent than for other investment-grade securities. The Fund's noninvestment-grade holdings of U.S. Steel Corporation and the Puerto Rico Government Development Bank contributed negative excess returns over the reporting period.

5	Duration is a measure of a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations. For purposes of this Management's Discussion of Fund Performance, duration is determined using a third-party analytical system.
6	Bond prices are sensitive to changes in interest rates, and a rise in interest rates can cause a decline in their prices.
7	Credit ratings pertain only to the securities in the portfolio and do not protect Fund shares against market risk.
8	Investment-grade securities and noninvestment-grade securities may either be: (a) rated by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization or rating agency; or (b) unrated securities that the Fund's investment adviser (“Adviser”) believes are of comparable quality. The rating agencies that provided the ratings for rated securities include Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Services, Inc. and Fitch Rating Service. When ratings vary, the highest rating is used. Credit ratings of “AA” or better are considered to be high credit quality; credit ratings of “A” are considered high or medium/good quality; and credit ratings of “BBB” are considered to be medium/good credit quality, and the lowest category of investment-grade securities; credit ratings of “BB” and below are lower-rated, noninvestment-grade securities or junk bonds; and credit ratings of “CCC” or below are noninvestment-grade securities that have high default risk. Any credit quality breakdown does not give effect to the impact of any credit derivative investments made by the Fund. Credit ratings are an indication of the risk that a security will default. They do not protect a security from credit risk. Lower-rated bonds typically offer higher yields to help compensate investors for the increased risk associated with them. Among these risks are lower creditworthiness, greater price volatility, more risk to principal and income than with higher-rated securities and increased possibilities of default.

The Fund offers two classes of shares: Class A Shares and Class F Shares. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting, except on class-specific matters. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal regular income tax (federal regular income tax does not include the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT)) and the personal income taxes imposed by the state of Ohio and Ohio municipalities. Interest income from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal AMT for individuals and corporations.

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities greater than 60 days are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”).
■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at their cost (adjusted for the accretion of any discount or amortization of any premium), unless the issuer's creditworthiness is impaired or other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the investment's fair value, in which case it would be valued in the same manner as a longer-term security.
■	Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.
■	Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.
■	For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

Annual Shareholder Report

23

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, Federated Investment Management Company (“Adviser”) and certain of the Adviser's affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services and review of price challenges by the Adviser based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified-cost basis. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. 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 Class A Shares and Class F Shares may bear distribution services fees and other service fees unique to those classes. The detail of the total fund expense waivers of $522,713 is disclosed in various locations in this Note 2 and Note 5.

Annual Shareholder Report

24

For the year ended August 31, 2016, an unaffiliated third-party waived $7,083 of portfolio accounting 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.

Other Service Fees

The Fund may pay other service fees up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares and Class F Shares to unaffiliated financial intermediaries or to Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC) for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSSC may voluntarily reimburse the Fund for other service fees. In addition, unaffiliated third-party financial intermediaries may waive other service fees. This waiver can be modified or terminated at any time. For the year ended August 31, 2016, other service fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Other Service Fees Incurred
Class A Shares	$165,756
Class F Shares	268,604
TOTAL	$434,360

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted using the effective-interest-rate method.

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. As of and during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of August 31, 2016, tax years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

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.

Annual Shareholder Report

25

Restricted Securities

The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that either: (a) cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933; or (b) are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. In some cases, when a security cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, the issuer of the restricted security 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 such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund's restricted securities, like other securities, are priced in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.

Additional information on restricted securities, excluding securities purchased under Rule 144A that have been deemed liquid by the Trustees, if applicable, held at August 31, 2016, is as follows:

	Acquisition Date	Cost	Market Value
Port Authority for Columbiana County, OH, Solid Waste Facility Revenue Bonds (Series 2004A), 7.25% (Apex Environmental LLC)/(Original Issue Yield: 7.30%), 8/1/2034	12/23/2004	$266,671	$3
Port Authority for Columbiana County, OH, Solid Waste Facility Revenue Bonds (Series 2012D), 10.82% (Apex Environmental LLC), 8/1/2034	8/1/2014 - 8/1/2015	$36,720	$0

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases and sells financial futures contracts to manage duration risk. Upon entering into a financial 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, which is shown as restricted cash in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. 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 the changes in the value of the underlying securities. There is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures contracts are exchange traded and the exchange's clearing house, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

As of August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding futures contracts.

The average notional value of long futures contracts held by the Fund throughout the period was $5,165,406. This is based on amounts held as of each month-end throughout the fiscal period.

NET CHANGE RESULTING FROM TOTAL FUND SHARE TRANSACTIONS	(282,137)	$(3,093,113)	(199,045)	$(2,208,709)

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

Annual Shareholder Report

27

For the year ended August 31, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$(87,092)	$87,092

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net assets were not affected by the reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:

	2016	2015
Ordinary income	$3,946	$1,761
Tax-exempt income	$4,905,674	$5,303,684

As of August 31, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	$150,510
Net unrealized appreciation	$11,969,388
Capital loss carryforwards	$(91,054)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At August 31, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $164,242,816. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $11,969,388. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $13,045,299 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $1,075,911.

At August 31, 2016, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $91,054 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, thereby reducing the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning on or before December 22, 2010, is characterized as short-term and may be carried forward for a maximum of eight tax years (“Carryforward Limit”), whereas a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, retains its character as either short-term or long-term, does not expire and is required to be utilized prior to the losses which have a Carryforward Limit.

Annual Shareholder Report

28

The following schedule summarizes the Fund's capital loss carryforwards and expiration years:

Expiration Year	Short-Term	Long-Term	Total
2018	$68,589	NA	$68,589
2019	$22,465	NA	$22,465

The Fund used capital loss carryforwards of $733,909 to offset capital gains realized during the year ended August 31, 2016.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

The advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser provides for an annual fee equal to 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Adviser voluntarily waived $247,026 of its fee.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. For purposes of determining the appropriate rate breakpoint, “Investment Complex” is defined as all of the Federated Funds subject to a fee under the Administrative Services Agreement. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average daily net assets of the Investment Complex as specified below, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses:

Administrative Fee	Average Daily Net Assets of the Investment Complex
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

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the annualized fee paid to FAS was 0.078% of average daily net assets of the Fund.

Annual Shareholder Report

29

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 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 at the following percentages of average daily net assets annually, to compensate FSC:

Share Class Name	Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets of Class
Class A Shares	0.05%
Class F Shares	0.40%

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, distribution services fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Distribution Services Fees Incurred	Distribution Services Fees Waived
Class F Shares	$431,779	$(268,604)

When FSC receives fees, it may pay some or all of them to financial intermediaries whose customers purchase shares. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $163,176 of fees paid by the Fund. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund's Class A shares did not incur a distribution services fee; however it may begin to incur this fee upon approval of the Trustees.

Sales Charges

Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $9,043 and $393 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares and Class F Shares, respectively. FSC retained $15,441 in CDSC relating to redemptions of Class F Shares.

Other Service Fees

For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSSC received $2,018 of the other service fees disclosed in Note 2.

Interfund Transactions

During the year ended August 31, 2016, 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 $36,600,000 and $34,350,000, respectively.

Expense Limitation

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates (which may include FSC, FAS and FSSC) on their own initiative have agreed to waive their respective fees and/or reimburse expenses. Total annual fund operating expenses (as shown in the financial highlights, excluding interest expense, extraordinary expenses, line of credit expense and proxy-related expenses paid by the Fund, if

Annual Shareholder Report

30

any) paid by the Fund's Class A Shares and Class F Shares (after the voluntary waivers and reimbursements) will not exceed 0.75% and 0.90% (the “Fee Limit”), respectively, up to but not including the later of (the “Termination Date”): (a) November 1, 2017; or (b) the date of the Fund's next effective Prospectus. While the Adviser and its applicable affiliates currently do not anticipate terminating or increasing these arrangements prior to the Termination Date, these arrangements may only be terminated or the Fee Limit increased prior to the Termination Date with the agreement of the Trustees.

General

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of certain of the above companies. To efficiently facilitate payment, Directors'/Trustees' fees and certain expenses related to conducting meetings of the Directors/Trustees and other miscellaneous expenses are paid by an affiliate of the Adviser which in due course are reimbursed by the Fund. Such expenses may be included in Accrued and Miscellaneous Expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

6. Investment TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the year ended August 31, 2016, were as follows:

Purchases	$21,649,517
Sales	$29,365,758

7. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Since the Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at August 31, 2016, 10.6% of the securities in the Portfolio of Investments is backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies.

8. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

During the year ended August 31, 2016, the program was not utilized.

10. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF federated municipal securities income trust and shareholders of federated ohio municipal income FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated Ohio Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), a portfolio of Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust, as of August 31, 2016, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated Ohio Municipal Income Fund as of August 31, 2016, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service 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 March 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016.

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 required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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.

Annual Shareholder Report

34

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 3/1/2016	Ending Account Value 8/31/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual:
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,034.90	$3.84
Class F Shares	$1,000	$1,034.10	$4.60
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses):
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,021.37	$3.81
Class F Shares	$1,000	$1,020.61	$4.57

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half-year period). The annualized net expense ratios are as follows:

Class A Shares	0.75%
Class F Shares	0.90%

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated Ohio Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees, which have indicated 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 an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of an adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to

42

institutional and other clients of Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”) for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year, and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Adviser also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Adviser or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and 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 investment objectives; 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); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Adviser in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and

Annual Shareholder Report

43

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 Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

While mindful that courts have cautioned against giving such comparisons too much weight, the Board has found the use of comparisons of the Fund's fees and expenses to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be relevant to its deliberations. In this regard, the Board was presented with, and considered, information regarding the contractual advisory fee rates, net advisory fee rates, total expense ratios and each element of the Fund's total expense ratio (i.e., gross and net advisory fees, custody fees, portfolio accounting fees and transfer agency fees) relative to the Fund's peers. The Board focused on comparisons with other similar mutual funds more heavily than non-mutual fund products or services because it is believed that 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 relevant indicator of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Fund competes.

The Board reviewed the contractual advisory fee rate, net advisory fee rate where partially waived and other expenses of the Fund and noted the position of the Fund's fee rates relative to its peers. In this regard, the Board noted that the contractual advisory fee rate was below the median of the relevant peer group and the Board was satisfied that the overall expense structure of the Fund remained competitive.

By contrast, the Senior Officer has reviewed Federated's fees for providing advisory services to products outside the Federated funds (e.g., institutional and separate accounts and sub-adviser services). He concluded that mutual funds and institutional accounts are inherently different products. Those differences include, but are not limited to, different types of targeted investors; being subject to different laws and regulations; different legal structures; different average account sizes and portfolio management techniques made necessary by different cash flows and different associated costs; and the time spent by portfolio managers and their teams, funds financial services, legal, compliance and risk management in reviewing securities pricing, addressing different administrative responsibilities, addressing different degrees of risk associated with management and a variety of different costs. The Senior Officer did not consider the fees for providing advisory services to these outside products to be determinative in judging the appropriateness of mutual fund advisory fees.

44

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and the resources of the Adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Adviser's personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Adviser. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

In evaluating the Fund's investment performance, the Board considered performance results in light of the Fund's investment objective, strategies and risks, as disclosed in the Fund's prospectus. The Board particularly considered detailed investment reports on the Fund's performance provided to the Board throughout the year and in connection with the May meetings. The Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated, using data supplied by independent fund ranking organizations, regarding the performance of, and fees charged by, other mutual funds, noting his view that comparisons to fund peer groups may be helpful, though not conclusive, in judging the reasonableness of the proposed fees. The Board considered, in evaluating such comparisons, that in some cases individual funds may exhibit significant and unique differences in their objectives and management techniques when compared to other funds within an industry peer group.

For the periods covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation, the Fund's performance for the three-year and five-year periods was at the median of the relevant peer group, and the Fund's performance fell below the median of the relevant peer group for the one-year period. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Adviser and recognized the efforts being taken by the Adviser in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds. This information covered not only the fees under the investment advisory contracts,

Annual Shareholder Report

45

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 information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

Federated furnished information, requested by the Senior Officer, that reported revenues on a fund-by-fund basis and made estimates of the allocation of expenses on a fund-by-fund basis, using allocation methodologies specified by the Senior Officer. The Senior Officer noted that, while these cost allocation reports apply consistent allocation processes, the inherent difficulties in allocating costs continues to cause the Senior Officer to question the precision of the process and to conclude that such reports may be unreliable, since a single change in an allocation estimate may dramatically alter the resulting estimate of cost and/or profitability of a fund and may produce unintended consequences. The allocation information, including the Senior Officer's view that fund-by-fund estimations may be unreliable, was considered in the analysis by the Board.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer's Evaluation also discussed the notion of possible realization of “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger. The Board considered in this regard that the Adviser has made significant and long-term investments in areas that support all of the Federated funds, such as personnel and processes for the portfolio management, shareholder services, compliance, internal audit, and risk management functions, as well as systems technology (including technology relating to cybersecurity), and that the benefits of these efforts (as well as any economies of scale, should they exist) were likely to be enjoyed by the fund family as a whole. The Board noted that the Adviser's investments in these areas are extensive. In addition, the Board considered that Federated and its affiliates have frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and that this has allowed fund shareholders to share potential economies of scale from a fund's inception. Federated, as it does throughout the year, and again in connection with the Board's review, furnished information relative to revenue sharing or adviser paid fees. Federated and the Senior Officer noted that this information

Annual Shareholder Report

46

should be viewed to determine if there was an incentive to either not apply breakpoints or to apply breakpoints at higher levels and should not be viewed to determine the appropriateness of advisory fees, because it would represent marketing and distribution expenses. Finally, the Board also noted the absence of any applicable regulatory or industry guidelines on this subject, which (as discussed in the Senior Officer's Evaluation) is compounded by the lack of any common industry practice or general pattern with respect to structuring fund advisory fees with “breakpoints” that serve to reduce the fee as a fund attains a certain size.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the fund was reasonable. Under these circumstances, no changes were recommended to, and no objection was raised to, the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract.

In its decision to continue an existing investment advisory contract, the Board was 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 investment advisory contract. In particular, the Board recognized that many shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Adviser's industry standing and reputation and with the expectation that the Adviser will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund. Thus, the Board's approval of the investment advisory contract reflected the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Fund. The Board concluded that, in light of the factors discussed above, including the nature, quality and scope of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates, continuation of the investment advisory contract was appropriate.

The Board based its decision to approve the investment 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 were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

The total return of Federated Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), based on net asset value for the 12-month reporting period ended August 31, 2016, (the “reporting period”) was 6.85% for A Shares and 5.93% for B Shares. The 6.85% total return of the A Shares for the reporting period consisted of 3.17% of tax-exempt dividends and reinvestments and price appreciation of 3.68% in the net asset value of the shares.¹ The total return of the S&P Municipal Bond Pennsylvania Index (“PA Index”),² the Fund's broad-based securities market index, was 6.64% during the same period. The total return of the S&P Municipal Bond PA, Investment Grade, 3-Year Plus Sub-Index (PAIG3 Index),³ a secondary index for the Fund, was 7.75%, and the total return of the Morningstar Muni Pennsylvania Funds Average (MMPFA),⁴ a peer group average for the Fund, was 6.39% during the same reporting period. The Fund's and the MMPFA's total returns for the most recently completed fiscal year reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses, which were not reflected in the total return of the PA Index or PAIG3 Index.

During the reporting period, the Fund's investment strategy focused on: (a) the effective duration of its portfolio (which indicates the portfolio's sensitivity to changes in interest rates),^5,6 (b) the allocation of the Fund's portfolio among securities of similar issuers (referred to as “sectors”); and (c) the credit quality of portfolio securities (which is shown through credit ratings which indicate the risk that securities may default).⁷ These were the most significant factors affecting the Fund's performance relative to the PAIG3 Index during the reporting period.

The following discussion focuses on the performance of the Fund's Class A Shares.

Market OVERVIEW

During the reporting period, 10-year Treasury yields decreased from a high of 2.34% in November of 2015 to a low of 1.36% in July of 2016 and averaged 1.89%. Economic activity in the U.S. expanded at a moderate pace despite the global economic and financial setbacks in recent months. A range of recent economic indicators, including strong job gains, pointed to additional strengthening of the labor market. Inflation showed signs of picking up in recent months; however, it continued to run below the Federal Reserve System's (the “Fed”) two percent longer run objective. This partly reflected declines in energy prices and impacts of the U.S. dollar's strength on non-energy imports. Global economic developments continued to pose risks as turmoil in Chinese financial markets and lower oil prices contributed to concerns about the prospects for global economic growth and a pullback from risky assets. The Fed's decision to raise the federal funds target rate by 1/4 percent was widely anticipated by the

markets. A downward revision in the expected path of the federal funds target rate was warranted by economic conditions and moved closer to the markets' expectations of the long-run plan.

The vote by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union (“Brexit”) resulted in immediate asset price volatility and some financial markets, particularly certain foreign exchange markets, experienced brief periods of strained liquidity. Safe haven asset prices appreciated substantially, but broad based market dislocations did not develop. Overall, the negative sentiment surrounding the Brexit outcome was subsequently alleviated by expectations of the central banks being more accommodative. Nevertheless, several long-term global risks related to Brexit remained.

Downward pressure on domestic energy activity intensified over the reporting period as oil prices dropped further. The imbalance of crude oil relative to demand remained very high, and it was not expected to resolve quickly. The collapse in the price of oil supported the fixed-income markets by further reducing price pressures and generating concerns that the drop in oil prices might reflect declining demand in a weakening global economy. The support for household spending from lower energy prices was offset by the restraint implied by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar and the possibility of adverse effects from slower economic growth in China.

During the reporting period, developments in Europe continued to be a focus for investors which indirectly affected interest rate levels in the tax-exempt municipal bond market. With regard to Europe, there continued to be downside risks to growth emanating from the region, given its unresolved imbalances, weak economic growth and continued deflationary risks. The U.S. dollar strengthened against the currencies of most advanced economies amid concerns about growth in those countries as well as announcements by several central banks regarding monetary policy actions. Elements underpinning the strength of the U.S. dollar were the increasing prevalence of negative interest rates on sovereign debt in some key European economies and risks to the international economic outlook. The European Central Bank announced that it would expand its asset purchase program.Credit conditions in the municipal bond market continued to be generally solid. Credit quality continued to be overall very stable, and ratios of general obligation bonds to those of comparable Treasury securities rose, partly reflecting the declines in yields on Treasury securities. The default by Puerto Rico and the downgrade of Illinois general obligation bonds both had only a limited effect on the broader municipal market.The municipal bond markets' technical (supply and demand) position was mostly favorable over the reporting period. The issuance of municipal debt was lower than in previous periods as issuers were hesitant to add additional leverage and the economic benefits of refunding existing debt became less advantageous. Flows from investors into intermediate, long and high-yield municipal bonds were positive and broad-based for a significant portion of the reporting period.

The intermittent flight to quality by investors as a result of the unstable global political and economic environment also favored municipal bonds as they were viewed as a safer alternative investment.

The risk of additional municipal issuers becoming distressed remained through the reporting period. Some state and local governments turned to the courts for assistance in lowering their onerous pension liabilities, but responses from the courts were generally not favorable. Any workouts of these concerns are likely to take many years, which will continue to constrain state and local government budgets and limit their capacity to deal with severe infrastructure needs. The ongoing pressures on public pension plans and their unfunded liabilities continued to receive significant scrutiny.

Some positive news about the fiscal position of the states became available during the reporting period and, in some cases, revenues rose sufficiently enough to enable increases in state government spending and employment. These positive events allowed the spread between “AAA”- and “BBB”-rated general obligation debt to narrow by 27 basis points for 30 year maturities during the reporting period. The municipal yield curve also flattened significantly as yields on shorter maturities increased while yields on longer maturities (five years and longer) declined, leading to better total return performance for longer dated municipal bonds.

During the reporting period, Pennsylvania was the sixth largest state by both population and gross state product. Following decades of a declining manufacturing base, the economic growth engine has become its rejuvenated urban areas. The education and medical sectors have been driving the employment base in these areas. Pennsylvania maintained credit strengths that include a stable and less volatile economy than the overall U.S. economy, above average income levels and a pension reform plan which should lead to full funding of the Commonwealth's pension obligations. The Commonwealth successfully implemented revenue increases and expenditure cuts that intended to close the large structural budget gap. The contentious political environment did lead to a lengthy stalemate and delayed passage of their 2016 budget. Pension reform passed in 2010 put the pension plans on a path to be fully funded within 30 years subject to contribution collars limiting increases in annual contributions although pension will continue to be a key credit issue going forward.

DURATION

As determined at the end of the reporting period, the Fund's dollar-weighted average duration for the reporting period was 4.6 years. Duration management continued to be a significant component of the Fund's investment strategy. The Fund's average duration was shorter than the average duration of the PAIG3 Index during the reporting period. Tax-exempt municipal bond yields decreased during most of the reporting period and decreased more for bonds with longer maturities as the yield curve significantly flattened during the reporting period. Bonds with a longer duration outperformed bonds with a shorter duration due to their differences in interest rate volatility. As a result of the Fund's underweight to bonds with longer durations relative to those included in the PAIG3 Index, duration had a significant negative impact on Fund performance over the reporting period.

Sector allocation

During the reporting period, sector allocation contributed positively to excess return. The Fund maintained a higher portfolio allocation to Industrial Development, Hospital and Senior Care, and Water and Sewer revenue bonds. These allocations helped the Fund's performance due to the outperformance of these sectors relative to the PAIG3 Index. The Fund had larger allocation to Pre-Refunded bonds than the PAIG3 Index. This sector underperformed the PAIG3 Index during the reporting period and provided negative excess return relative to the PAIG3 Index. Pre-Refunded bonds are escrowed in Treasury securities until their most recent call date and have less sensitivity to changes in interest rates as a result. As interest rates declines over the reporting period, Pre-Refunded bonds underperformed relative to the PAIG3 Index.

credit QUALITY⁸

During the reporting period, investor appetite for yield in the low interest rate environment increased municipal bond fund inflows and resulted in outperformance of bonds rated “A” and “BBB” (or unrated bonds of comparable quality) relative to bonds rated in the higher rating categories (or unrated bonds of comparable quality). Bonds in the noninvestment-grade⁷ category, below “BBB,” also outperformed the higher rating categories. With the decrease in credit spreads during the reporting period, and to a lesser extent for “AAA” and “AA” rated (or unrated comparable quality) debt, the Fund's overweight position, relative to the PAIG3 Index, in “A” and “BBB” (or unrated comparable quality) debt during the reporting period had a positive impact on the Fund's performance, as the yield on “A” and “BBB” (or unrated comparable quality) debt decreased to a greater extent than for other investment-grade securities. The Fund's noninvestment-grade holding of U.S. Steel Corporation contributed negative excess return as declining steel prices and the dumping of steel by foreign producers resulted in the bond's underperformance over the reporting period.

Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations. For purposes of this Management's Discussion of Fund Performance, duration is determined using a third-party analytical system.

8	Investment-grade securities and noninvestment-grade securities may either: be (a) rated by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization or rating agency; or (b) unrated securities that the Fund's investment adviser (“Adviser”) believes are of comparable quality. The rating agencies that provided the ratings for rated securities include Standard and Poor's, Moody's Investor Services, Inc. and Fitch Rating Service. When ratings vary, the highest rating is used. Credit ratings of “AA” or better are considered to be high credit quality; credit ratings of “A” are considered high or medium/good quality; and credit ratings of “BBB” are considered to be medium/good credit quality, and the lowest category of investment-grade securities; credit ratings of “BB” and below are lower-rated, noninvestment-grade securities or junk bonds; and credit ratings of “CCC” or below are noninvestment-grade securities that have high default risk. Any credit quality breakdown does not give effect to the impact of any credit derivative investments made by the Fund. Credit ratings are an indication of the risk that a security will default. They do not protect a security from credit risk. Lower-rated bonds typically offer higher yields to help compensate investors for the increased risk associated with them. Among these risks are lower creditworthiness, greater price volatility, more risk to principal and income than with higher-rated securities and increased possibilities of default.

2	The PA Index consists of bonds in the S&P Municipal Bond Index (“Main Index”) that have been issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or local governments or state or local government entities within Pennsylvania. The Main Index is a broad, comprehensive, market value-weighted index composed of approximately 55,000 bond issues that are exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). Eligibility criteria for inclusion in the Main Index include, but are not limited to: the bond issuer must be a state (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and U.S. territories) or local government or state or local government entity where interest on the bond is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes or subject to the AMT; the bond must be held by a mutual fund for which Standard & Poor's Securities Evaluations, Inc. provides prices; it must be denominated in U.S. dollars and have a minimum par amount of $2 million; and the bond must have a minimum term to maturity and/or call date greater than or equal to one calendar month. The Main Index is rebalanced monthly. The PA Index is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses and other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The PA Index is unmanaged, and unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
3	The PAIG3 Index represents the portion of the PA Index composed solely of bonds that are rated at least BBB with remaining maturities of more than three years that are not subject to AMT. The PAIG3 Index is not adjusted to reflect sales charges, expenses and other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The PAIG3 Index is unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, is not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 2016

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of five portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), a non-diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. Each portfolio pays its own expenses. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Class A Shares and Class B Shares. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting, except on class-specific matters. Class B shares were closed to new accounts/investors on June 1, 2015 and to new purchases/exchanges by existing shareholders on August 1, 2015. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal regular income tax (federal regular income tax does not include the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT)) and the personal income taxes imposed by the state of Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania municipalities. Interest income from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal AMT for individuals and corporations.

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities greater than 60 days are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”).
■	Fixed-income securities acquired with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at their cost (adjusted for the accretion of any discount or amortization of any premium) unless the issuer's creditworthiness is impaired or other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the investment's fair value, in which case it would be valued in the same manner as a longer-term security.
■	Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.
■	Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.
■	Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.

■  For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, Federated Investment Management Company (“Adviser”) and certain of the Adviser's affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services and review of price challenges by the Adviser based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified-cost basis. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. 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 Class A Shares and Class B Shares may bear distribution services fees and other services fees unique to those classes. The detail of the total fund expense waivers, reimbursement and reduction of $249,013 is disclosed in various locations in this Note 2, Note 5 and Note 6.

For the year ended August 31, 2016 an unaffiliated third-party waived $7,084 of portfolio accounting 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.

Other Service Fees

The Fund may pay other service fees up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares and Class B Shares to unaffiliated financial intermediaries or to Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC) for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSSC may voluntarily reimburse the Fund for other service fees. For the year ended August 31, 2016, other service fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Other Service Fees Incurred	Other Service Fees Reimbursed
Class A Shares	$493,122	$(38,991)
Class B Shares	5,398	—
TOTAL	$498,520	$(38,991)

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted using the effective-interest-rate method.

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. As of and during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of August 31, 2016, tax years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

24

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.

Restricted Securities

The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that either: (a) cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933; or (b) are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. In some cases, when a security cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, the issuer of the restricted security 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 such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund's restricted securities, like other securities, are priced in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases and sells financial futures contracts to increase return and to manage duration and yield curve risks. Upon entering into a financial 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 which is shown as Restricted Cash in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. 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 the changes in the value of the underlying securities. There is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange's clearing house, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

At August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding futures contracts.

The average notional value of long futures contracts held by the Fund throughout the period was $8,440,649. This is based on amounts held as of each month-end throughout the fiscal period.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

Annual Shareholder Report

26

For the year ended August 31, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$(3,164)	$3,164

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net assets were not affected by the reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended August 31, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:

	2016	2015
Tax-exempt income	$6,000,393	$6,782,570

As of August 31, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	$176,050
Net unrealized appreciation	$13,921,124
Capital loss carryforwards	$(17,113,723)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At August 31, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $184,880,688. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes excluding any unrealized depreciation was $13,921,124. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $13,921,186 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $62.

At August 31, 2016, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $17,113,723 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, thereby reducing the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning on or before December 22, 2010, is characterized as short-term and may be carried forward for a maximum of eight tax years (“Carryforward Limit”), whereas a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, retains its character as either short-term or long-term, does not expire and is required to be utilized prior to the losses which have a Carryforward Limit.

Annual Shareholder Report

27

The following schedule summarizes the Fund's capital loss carryforwards and expiration years:

Expiration Year	Short-Term	Long-Term	Total
2017	$7,258,745	NA	$7,258,745
2018	$9,851,417	NA	$9,851,417
2019	$3,561	NA	$3,561

The Fund used capital loss carryforwards of $267,792 to offset taxable gains realized during the year ended August 31, 2016.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

The advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser provides for an annual fee equal to 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, the Adviser may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016 the Adviser voluntarily waived $202,783 of its fee.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. For purposes of determining the appropriate rate breakpoint, “Investment Complex” is defined as all of the Federated Funds subject to a fee under the Administrative Services Agreement. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average daily net assets of the Investment Complex as specified below, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses:

Administrative Fee	Average Daily Net Assets of the Investment Complex
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

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the annualized fee paid to FAS was 0.078% of average daily net assets of the Fund.

Annual Shareholder Report

28

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 and Class B Shares to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses at the following percentages of average daily net assets annually, to compensate FSC:

Share Class Name	Percentage of Average Daily Net Assets of Class
Class A Shares	0.05%
Class B Shares	0.75%

Subject to the terms described in the Expense Limitation note, FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended August 31, 2016, distribution services fees for the Fund were as follows:

	Distribution Services Fee Incurred
Class B Shares	$16,194

When FSC receives fees, it may pay some or all of them to financial intermediaries whose customers purchase shares. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $11,949 of fees paid by the Fund. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund's Class A Shares did not incur a distribution services fee; however it may begin to incur the fee upon approval of the Trustees.

Other Service Fees

For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSSC received $36,230 and reimbursed $38,991 of other service fees disclosed in Note 2.

Sales Charges

Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. For the year ended August 31, 2016, FSC retained $18,755 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares. FSC also retained $7,500 and $437 of CDSC relating to redemptions of Class A Shares and Class B Shares, respectively.

Interfund Transactions

During the year ended August 31, 2016, 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 $42,200,000 and $33,100,000, respectively.

Annual Shareholder Report

29

Expense Limitation

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates (which may include FSC, FAS and FSSC) on their own initiative have agreed to waive certain amounts of their respective fees and/or reimburse expenses. Total annual fund operating expenses (as shown in the financial highlights, excluding interest expense, extraordinary expenses, line of credit expenses and proxy-related expenses paid by the Fund, if any) paid by the Fund's Class A Shares and Class B Shares (after the voluntary waivers and reimbursements) will not exceed 0.75% and 1.52% (the “Fee Limit”), respectively, up to but not including the later of (the “Termination Date”): (a) November 1, 2017; or (b) the date of the Fund's next effective Prospectus. While the Adviser and its applicable affiliates currently do not anticipate terminating or increasing these arrangements prior to the Termination Date, these arrangements may only be terminated or the Fee Limit increased prior to the Termination Date with the agreement of the Trustees.

General

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of certain of the above companies. To efficiently facilitate payment, Directors/Trustees' fees and certain expenses related to conducting meetings of the Directors/Trustees and other miscellaneous expenses are paid by an affiliate of the Adviser which in due course are reimbursed by the Fund. Such expenses may be included in Accrued and Miscellaneous Expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

6. EXPENSE REDUCTION

Through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, net credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce custody expenses. For the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $155 under these arrangements.

7. Investment TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the year ended August 31, 2016 were as follows:

Purchases	$26,978,833
Sales	$36,712,348

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Since the Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at August 31, 2016, 11.8% of the securities in the Portfolio of Investments are backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies.

Annual Shareholder Report

30

9. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of August 31, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

10. INTERFUND LENDING

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc., may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from other participating affiliated funds. As of August 31, 2016, there were no outstanding loans. During the year ended August 31, 2016, the program was not utilized.

11. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF federated municipal securities income trust and shareholders of federated Pennsylvania municipal income FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”), a portfolio of Federated Municipal Securities Income Trust, as of August 31, 2016, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund as of August 31, 2016, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service 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 March 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016.

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 required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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.

Annual Shareholder Report

33

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 3/1/2016	Ending Account Value 8/31/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual:
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,039.80	$3.85
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,034.80	$7.77
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses):
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,021.37	$3.81
Class B Shares	$1,000	$1,017.50	$7.71

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half-year period). The annualized net expense ratios are as follows:

Class A Shares	0.75%
Class B Shares	1.52%

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees, which have indicated 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 an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of an adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to

41

institutional and other clients of Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”) for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year, and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Adviser also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Adviser or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and 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 investment objectives; 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); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Adviser in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and

Annual Shareholder Report

42

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 Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

While mindful that courts have cautioned against giving such comparisons too much weight, the Board has found the use of comparisons of the Fund's fees and expenses to other mutual funds with comparable investment programs to be relevant to its deliberations. In this regard, the Board was presented with, and considered, information regarding the contractual advisory fee rates, net advisory fee rates, total expense ratios and each element of the Fund's total expense ratio (i.e., gross and net advisory fees, custody fees, portfolio accounting fees and transfer agency fees) relative to the Fund's peers. The Board focused on comparisons with other similar mutual funds more heavily than non-mutual fund products or services because it is believed that 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 relevant indicator of what consumers have found to be reasonable in the precise marketplace in which the Fund competes.

The Board reviewed the contractual advisory fee rate, net advisory fee rate where partially waived and other expenses of the Fund and noted the position of the Fund's fee rates relative to its peers. In this regard, the Board noted that the contractual advisory fee rate was below the median of the relevant peer group and the Board was satisfied that the overall expense structure of the Fund remained competitive.

By contrast, the Senior Officer has reviewed Federated's fees for providing advisory services to products outside the Federated funds (e.g., institutional and separate accounts and sub-adviser services). He concluded that mutual funds and institutional accounts are inherently different products. Those differences include, but are not limited to, different types of targeted investors; being subject to different laws and regulations; different legal structures; different average account sizes and portfolio management techniques made necessary by different cash flows and different associated costs; and the time spent by portfolio managers and their teams, funds financial services, legal, compliance and risk management in reviewing securities pricing, addressing different administrative responsibilities, addressing different degrees of risk associated with management and a variety of different costs. The Senior Officer did not consider the fees for providing advisory services to these outside products to be determinative in judging the appropriateness of mutual fund advisory fees.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the expenses of the Fund are reasonable and supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and the resources of the Adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Adviser's personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Adviser. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its peer group was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

In evaluating the Fund's investment performance, the Board considered performance results in light of the Fund's investment objective, strategies and risks, as disclosed in the Fund's prospectus. The Board particularly considered detailed investment reports on the Fund's performance provided to the Board throughout the year and in connection with the May meetings. The Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated, using data supplied by independent fund ranking organizations, regarding the performance of, and fees charged by, other mutual funds, noting his view that comparisons to fund peer groups may be helpful, though not conclusive, in judging the reasonableness of the proposed fees. The Board considered, in evaluating such comparisons, that in some cases individual funds may exhibit significant and unique differences in their objectives and management techniques when compared to other funds within an industry peer group.

The Fund's performance fell below the median of the relevant peer group for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Adviser and recognized the efforts being taken by the Adviser in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds. This information covered not only the fees under the investment advisory contracts, but also fees received by Federated's subsidiaries for providing other services to

Annual Shareholder Report

44

the Federated funds under separate contracts (e.g., for serving as the Federated funds' administrator). The information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

Federated furnished information, requested by the Senior Officer, that reported revenues on a fund-by-fund basis and made estimates of the allocation of expenses on a fund-by-fund basis, using allocation methodologies specified by the Senior Officer. The Senior Officer noted that, while these cost allocation reports apply consistent allocation processes, the inherent difficulties in allocating costs continues to cause the Senior Officer to question the precision of the process and to conclude that such reports may be unreliable, since a single change in an allocation estimate may dramatically alter the resulting estimate of cost and/or profitability of a fund and may produce unintended consequences. The allocation information, including the Senior Officer's view that fund-by-fund estimations may be unreliable, was considered in the analysis by the Board.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer's Evaluation also discussed the notion of possible realization of “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger. The Board considered in this regard that the Adviser has made significant and long-term investments in areas that support all of the Federated funds, such as personnel and processes for the portfolio management, shareholder services, compliance, internal audit, and risk management functions, as well as systems technology (including technology relating to cybersecurity), and that the benefits of these efforts (as well as any economies of scale, should they exist) were likely to be enjoyed by the fund family as a whole. The Board noted that the Adviser's investments in these areas are extensive. In addition, the Board considered that Federated and its affiliates have frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and that this has allowed fund shareholders to share potential economies of scale from a fund's inception. Federated, as it does throughout the year, and again in connection with the Board's review, furnished information relative to revenue sharing or adviser paid fees. Federated and the Senior Officer noted that this information should be viewed to determine if there was an incentive to either not apply

45

breakpoints or to apply breakpoints at higher levels and should not be viewed to determine the appropriateness of advisory fees, because it would represent marketing and distribution expenses. Finally, the Board also noted the absence of any applicable regulatory or industry guidelines on this subject, which (as discussed in the Senior Officer's Evaluation) is compounded by the lack of any common industry practice or general pattern with respect to structuring fund advisory fees with “breakpoints” that serve to reduce the fee as a fund attains a certain size.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the fund was reasonable. Under these circumstances, no changes were recommended to, and no objection was raised to, the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract.

In its decision to continue an existing investment advisory contract, the Board was 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 investment advisory contract. In particular, the Board recognized that many shareholders have invested in the Fund on the strength of the Adviser's industry standing and reputation and with the expectation that the Adviser will have a continuing role in providing advisory services to the Fund. Thus, the Board's approval of the investment advisory contract reflected the fact that it is the shareholders who have effectively selected the Adviser by virtue of having invested in the Fund. The Board concluded that, in light of the factors discussed above, including the nature, quality and scope of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates, continuation of the investment advisory contract was appropriate.

The Board based its decision to approve the investment 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 were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Policies regarding Pre-approval of Services.

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 do 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 its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent auditor to management.

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 will be 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 (RIC) 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 Company’s 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 Company 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 by the registrant, the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant to its accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided;

(2) Such services were not recognized by the registrant, the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant 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 issuer and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee who are members of the board of directors 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 will be 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 will be 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.

(e)(2) Percentage of services identified in items 4(b) through 4(d) that were approved by the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X:

(h) The registrant’s Audit Committee has considered that the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant 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.

In its required communications to the Audit Committee of the registrant’s Board, KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), the registrant’s independent public accountant, informed the Audit Committee that KPMG and/or covered person professionals within KPMG maintain lending relationships with certain owners of greater than 10% of the shares of the registrant and/or certain investment companies within the “investment company complex” as defined under Rule 2-01(f)(14) of Regulation S-X, which are affiliates of the registrant. KPMG has advised the Audit Committee that these lending relationships implicate Rule 2-01(c)(1)(ii)(A) of Regulation S-X (referred to as the “Loan Rule”). The Loan Rule prohibits an independent public accountant, or covered person professionals at such firm, from having a financial relationship (such as a loan) with a lender that is a record or beneficial owner of more than 10% of an audit client’s equity securities. For purposes of the Loan Rule, audit clients include the registrant, as well as all registered investment companies audited by KPMG (collectively, the “KPMG Funds”).

KPMG informed the Audit Committee that KPMG believes that these lending relationships described above do not and will not impair KPMG’s ability to exercise objective and impartial judgment in connection with financial statement audits of the registrant and a reasonable investor with knowledge of all relevant facts and circumstances would conclude that KPMG has been and is capable of objective and impartial judgment on all issues encompassed within KPMG’s audits.

On June 20, 2016, the Division of Investment Management of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a no-action letter to another mutual fund complex (see Fidelity Management & Research Company et al., No-Action Letter) related to similar Loan Rule matters as those described above. In that letter, the SEC Staff confirmed that it would not recommend enforcement action against an investment company that relied on the audit services performed by an independent public accountant where the Loan Rule was implicated in certain specified circumstances. In that letter, the SEC staff indicated that it would not recommend enforcement action against the investment company complex if the Loan Rule is implicated provided that: (1) the auditor has complied with PCAOB Rule 3526(b)(1) and 3526(b)(2); (2) the Loan Rule is implicated because of lending relationships; and (3) notwithstanding such lending relationships that implicate the Loan Rule, the auditor has concluded that it is objective and impartial with respect to the issues encompassed within its engagement as auditor of the funds. The circumstances described in the no-action letter are substantially similar to the circumstances that implicated the Loan Rule with respect to KPMG and the registrant. The relief provided in the SEC no-action letter is effective for 18 months from its June 20, 2016 issuance date.

If it were to be determined that the relief available under the no-action letter was improperly relied upon, or that the independence requirements under the federal securities laws were not otherwise complied with regarding the registrant, for certain periods, any of the registrant’s filings with the SEC which contain financial statements of the registrant for such periods may not comply with applicable federal securities laws, the registrant’s ability to offer shares under its current registration statement may be impacted, and certain financial reporting and/or other covenants with, and representations and warranties to, the registrant’s lender under its committed line of credit may be impacted. Such events could have a material adverse effect on the registrant and the KPMG Funds.
