1 Reflects operations for the period from October 24, 2000 (date of initial public investment) to September 30, 2001.

2 Effective October 1, 2001, the fund adopted the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began accreting discount/amortizing premium on long-term debt securities. For the year ended September 30, 2002, this change had no effect on the net investment income per share, net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments per share or the ratio of net investment income to average net assets. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for the period prior to September 30, 2002 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

3 Based on net asset value, which does not reflect the sales charge, redemption fee, or contingent deferred sales charge, if applicable. Total returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized.

4 Computed on an annualized basis.

5 This voluntary expense decrease is reflected in both the expense and the net investment income ratios shown above.

See Notes which are an integral part of the Financial Statements

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2004 to March 31, 2005.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

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

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

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

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. 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.

	Beginning Account Value 10/1/2004	Ending Account Value 3/31/2005	Expenses Paid During Period 1
Actual:
Institutional Shares	$1,000	$1,005.40	$1.75
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses):
Institutional Shares	$1,000	$1,023.19	$1.77

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.35%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Portfolio of Investments Summary Tables

At March 31, 2005, the Fund's credit-quality ratings composition ¹ was as follows:

S&P Long-Term Ratings as Percentage of Total Investments 2		Moody's Long-Term Ratings as Percentage of Total Investments 2
AAA	3.6%	Aaa	10.6%
AA	18.7%	Aa	9.9%
A	19.2%	A	15.0%
BBB	18.1%	Baa	12.1%
BB	1.2%	Ba	0.3%
Not Rated by S&P	39.2%	Not Rated by Moody's	52.1%
TOTAL	100.0%	TOTAL	100.0%

1 These tables depict the long-term, credit-quality ratings assigned to the Fund's portfolio holdings by Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Moody's Investors Service (Moody's), each of which is a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO). These credit-quality ratings are shown without regard to gradations within a given rating category. For example, securities rated "A-" have been included in the "A" rated category. Holdings that are rated only by a different NRSRO than the one identified have been included in the "Not rated by..." category. Rated securities that have been prerefunded, but not rated again by the NRSRO, also have been included in the "Not rated by..." category. Rated securities include a security with an obligor and/or credit enhancer that has received a rating from an NRSRO with respect to a class of debt obligations that is comparable in priority and security with the security held by the Fund. Credit-quality ratings are an assessment of the risk that a security will default in payment and do not address other risks presented by the security. Please see the descriptions of credit-quality ratings in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

These tables depict the long-term, credit-quality ratings as assigned only by the NRSRO identified in each table. Of the portfolio's total investments, 25.3% do not have long-term ratings by either of these NRSROs.

2 Percentages are based on total investments, which may differ from the Fund's total net assets used in computing the percentages in the Portfolio of Investments which follows.

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2005 (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Fixed Income Securities, Inc. (the "Corporation") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Corporation consists of four portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Municipal Ultrashort Fund (the "Fund"), a 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. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Shares and Class A Shares. The financial highlights of the Class A Shares are presented separately. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal regular income tax. Interest from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for individuals and corporations, and state and local taxes.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

Investment Valuation

Municipal bonds are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue, and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Directors (the "Directors").

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

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

Premium and Discount Amortization

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

Federal Taxes

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

Other Taxes

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

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

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

Restricted Securities

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

Additional information on restricted securities, excluding securities purchased under Rule 144A that have been deemed liquid by the Directors, held at March 31, 2005, is as follows:

Security	Acquisition Date	Acquisition Cost
Director of the State of Nevada Department of Business and Industry, Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds, 3.30% TOBs (Waste Management, Inc.), Mandatory Tender 10/1/2007	9/23/2004	$ 1,500,000
Florida State Department of Corrections, Custodial Receipts, 1.50%, 9/10/2005	2/27/2004	$ 710,000
Florida State Department of Corrections, Custodial Receipts, 2.00%, 9/10/2006	2/27/2004	$1,445,000
Missouri State HEFA (Series 2004D), 3.00% RANs (Rockhurst University), 4/22/2005	4/15/2004	$2,518,275

Use of Estimates

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

Other

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

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

At March 31, 2005, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $645,796,468. The net unrealized depreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $672,061. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $649,874 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $1,321,935.

At September 30, 2004, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $414,065 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

Expiration Year	Expiration Amount
2010	$ 541
2011	$353,600
2012	$ 59,924

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

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

Administrative Fee

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

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

The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $150,000 per portfolio and $40,000 per each additional class of Shares. FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FAS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

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 to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses of up to 0.25% of average daily net assets, annually, to compensate FSC. FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion. Rather than paying investment professionals directly, the Fund may pay fees to FSC and FSC will use the fees to compensate investment professionals. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, FSC retained $166,637 of fees paid by the Fund.

Sales Charges

For the six months ended March 31, 2005, FSC retained $151 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares. FSC also retained $4,627 of contingent deferred sales charges relating to redemptions of Class A Shares. See "What Do Shares Cost?" in the Prospectus.

Shareholder Services Fee

Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares and Institutional Shares for the period. The fee paid to FSSC is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. FSSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion. Rather than paying investment professionals directly, the Fund may pay fees to FSSC and FSSC will use the fees to compensate investment professionals. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, FSSC retained $8,263 of fees paid by the Fund. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, the Fund's Institutional Shares did not accrue or pay the shareholder services fee.

Interfund Transactions

During the six months ended March 31, 2005, 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 $175,298,058 and $342,244,894, respectively.

General

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

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations (and in-kind contributions), for the six-months ended March 31, 2005, were as follows:

Purchases	$	119,955,185
Sales	$	220,218,070

7. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees, and seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these recent lawsuits and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

VOTING PROXIES ON FUND PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to securities held in the Fund's portfolio is available, without charge and upon request, by calling 1-800-341-7400.

Go to FederatedInvestors.com, select "Products," select the "Prospectuses and Regulatory Reports" link, then select the Fund to access the link to Form N-PX. This information is also available from the EDGAR database on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

QUARTERLY PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE

The Fund files with the SEC a complete schedule of its portfolio holdings, as of the close of the first and third quarters of its fiscal year, on "Form N-Q." These filings are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, DC.

Mutual funds are not bank deposits or obligations, are not guaranteed by any bank, and are not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board, or any other government agency. Investment in mutual funds involves investment risk, including the possible loss of principal.

This report is authorized for distribution to prospective investors only when preceded or accompanied by the Fund's prospectus, which contains facts concerning its objective and policies, management fees, expenses, and other information.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT FUND DOCUMENT DELIVERY

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

2 Effective October 1, 2001, the fund adopted the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began accreting discount/amortizing premium on long-term debt securities. For the year ended September 30, 2002, this change had no effect on the net investment income per share, net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments per share or the ratio of net investment income to average net assets. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for the period prior to September 30, 2002 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

3 Based on net asset value, which does not reflect the sales charge, redemption fee, or contingent deferred sales charge, if applicable. Total returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized.

4 Computed on an annualized basis.

5 This voluntary expense decrease is reflected in both the expense and the net investment income ratios shown above.

See Notes which are an integral part of the Financial Statements

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; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2004 to March 31, 2005.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

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

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

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

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

	Beginning Account Value 10/1/2004	Ending Account Value 3/31/2005	Expenses Paid During Period 1
Actual:
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,003.10	$4.00
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses):
Class A Shares	$1,000	$1,020.94	$4.03

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.80%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Portfolio of Investments Summary Tables

At March 31, 2005, the Fund's credit-quality ratings composition ¹ was as follows:

S&P Long-Term Ratings as Percentage of Total Investments 2		Moody's Long-Term Ratings as Percentage of Total Investments 2
AAA	3.6%	Aaa	10.6%
AA	18.7%	Aa	9.9%
A	19.2%	A	15.0%
BBB	18.1%	Baa	12.1%
BB	1.2%	Ba	0.3%
Not Rated by S&P	39.2%	Not Rated by Moody's	52.1%
TOTAL	100.0%	TOTAL	100.0%

1 These tables depict the long-term, credit-quality ratings assigned to the Fund's portfolio holdings by Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Moody's Investors Service (Moody's), each of which is a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO). These credit-quality ratings are shown without regard to gradations within a given rating category. For example, securities rated "A-" have been included in the "A" rated category. Holdings that are rated only by a different NRSRO than the one identified have been included in the "Not rated by..." category. Rated securities that have been prerefunded, but not rated again by the NRSRO, also have been included in the "Not rated by..." category. Rated securities include a security with an obligor and/or credit enhancer that has received a rating from an NRSRO with respect to a class of debt obligations that is comparable in priority and security with the security held by the Fund. Credit-quality ratings are an assessment of the risk that a security will default in payment and do not address other risks presented by the security. Please see the descriptions of credit-quality ratings in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

These tables depict the long-term, credit-quality ratings as assigned only by the NRSRO identified in each table. Of the portfolio's total investments, 25.3% do not have long-term ratings by either of these NRSROs.

2 Percentages are based on total investments, which may differ from the Fund's total net assets used in computing the percentages in the Portfolio of Investments which follows.

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2005 (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Fixed Income Securities, Inc. (the "Corporation") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Corporation consists of four portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Municipal Ultrashort Fund (the "Fund"), a 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. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Shares and Class A Shares. The financial highlights of the Institutional Shares are presented separately. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal regular income tax. Interest from the Fund's investments may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for individuals and corporations, and state and local taxes.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

Investment Valuation

Municipal bonds are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue, and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Directors (the "Directors").

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

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

Premium and Discount Amortization

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

Federal Taxes

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

Other Taxes

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

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

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

Restricted Securities

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

Additional information on restricted securities, excluding securities purchased under Rule 144A that have been deemed liquid by the Directors, held at March 31, 2005, is as follows:

Security	Acquisition Date	Acquisition Cost
Director of the State of Nevada Department of Business and Industry, Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds, 3.30% TOBs (Waste Management, Inc.), Mandatory Tender 10/1/2007	9/23/2004	$ 1,500,000
Florida State Department of Corrections, Custodial Receipts, 1.50%, 9/10/2005	2/27/2004	$ 710,000
Florida State Department of Corrections, Custodial Receipts, 2.00%, 9/10/2006	2/27/2004	$1,445,000
Missouri State HEFA (Series 2004D), 3.00% RANs (Rockhurst University), 4/22/2005	4/15/2004	$2,518,275

Use of Estimates

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

Other

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

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

At March 31, 2005, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $645,796,468. The net unrealized depreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $672,061. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $649,874 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $1,321,935.

At September 30, 2004, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $414,065 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

Expiration Year	Expiration Amount
2010	$ 541
2011	$353,600
2012	$ 59,924

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

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

Administrative Fee

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

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

The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $150,000 per portfolio and $40,000 per each additional class of Shares. FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FAS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

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 to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses of up to 0.25% of average daily net assets, annually, to compensate FSC. FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion. Rather than paying investment professionals directly, the Fund may pay fees to FSC and FSC will use the fees to compensate investment professionals. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, FSC retained $166,637 of fees paid by the Fund.

Sales Charges

For the six months ended March 31, 2005, FSC retained $151 in sales charges from the sale of Class A Shares. FSC also retained $4,627 of contingent deferred sales charges relating to redemptions of Class A Shares. See "What Do Shares Cost?" in the Prospectus.

Shareholder Services Fee

Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A Shares and Institutional Shares for the period. The fee paid to FSSC is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. FSSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion. Rather than paying investment professionals directly, the Fund may pay fees to FSSC and FSSC will use the fees to compensate investment professionals. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, FSSC retained $8,263 of fees paid by the Fund. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, the Fund's Institutional Shares did not accrue or pay the shareholder services fee.

Interfund Transactions

During the six months ended March 31, 2005, 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 $175,298,058 and $342,244,894, respectively.

General

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

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations (and in-kind contributions), for the six-months ended March 31, 2005, were as follows:

Purchases	$	119,955,185
Sales	$	220,218,070

7. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees, and seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these recent lawsuits and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT FUND DOCUMENT DELIVERY

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