</R>
The Fund's investment objective is to provide investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly-traded common stocks, by duplicating the composition of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index (Index). While there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective, it endeavors to do so by following the strategies and policies described in this prospectus.
The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the large capitalization common stocks comprising the Index.
All mutual funds take investment risks. Therefore, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. The primary factors that may reduce the Fund's returns include:
<R>
</R>
The Shares offered by this prospectus are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not endorsed or 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.
<R>
[Graphic Representation Omitted--See Appendix]
The bar chart shows the variability of the Fund's Institutional Shares total returns on a calendar year-end basis.
The Fund's Institutional Shares are sold without a sales charge (load). The total returns displayed above are based upon net asset value.
The Fund's Institutional Shares total return for the nine-month period from January 1, 2000 to September 30, 2000 was (1.82%).
Within the period shown in the chart, the Fund's Institutional Shares highest quarterly return was 21.22% (quarter ended December 31, 1998). Its lowest quarterly return was (9.97%) (quarter ended September 30, 1998).
The following table represents the Fund's Institutional Shares Average Annual Total Returns for the calendar period ended December 31, 1999. The table shows the Fund's Institutional Shares total returns averaged over a period of years relative to the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, a broad based market index. Total returns for the index shown do not reflect sales charges, expenses or other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. Index is unmanaged, and it is not possible to invest directly in an index.
| Calendar Period | Fund | S&P 500 | ||
| 1 Year | 20.42% | 21.05% | ||
| 5 Years | 28.01% | 28.56% | ||
| Start of Performance1 | 18.61% | 18.81% |
1 The Fund's Institutional Shares start of performance date was July 11, 1990.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. This information provides you with historical performance information so that you can analyze whether the Fund's investment risks are balanced by its potential returns.
</R>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold the Fund's Institutional Shares.
| Shareholder Fees | ||
| Fees Paid Directly From Your Investment | ||
| Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price) | None | |
| Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of original purchase price or redemption proceeds, as applicable) | None | |
| Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Reinvested Dividends (and other Distributions) (as a percentage of offering price) | None | |
| Redemption Fee (as a percentage of amount redeemed, if applicable) | None | |
| Exchange Fee | None | |
| Annual Fund Operating Expenses (Before Waivers)1 | ||
| Expenses That are Deducted From Fund Assets (as a percentage of average net assets) | ||
| Management Fee2 | 0.30% | |
| Distribution (12b-1) Fee | None | |
| Shareholder Services Fee3 | 0.25% | |
| Other Expenses | 0.04% | |
| Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses | 0.59% | |
| 1 Although not contractually obligated to do so, the manager and shareholder services provider waived certain amounts. These are shown below along with the net expenses the Fund actually paid for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000. | ||
| Total Waivers of Fund Expenses | 0.25% | |
| Total Actual Annual Fund Operating Expenses (after waivers) | 0.34% | |
| 2 The manager voluntarily waived a portion of the management fee. The manager can terminate this voluntary waiver at any time. The management fee paid by the Fund (after the voluntary waiver, which amounted to less than 0.01%) was 0.30% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000. | ||
| 3 The shareholder services fee has been voluntarily waived. This voluntary waiver can be terminated at any time. The shareholder services fee paid by the Fund's Institutional Shares (after the voluntary waiver) was 0.00% for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000. | ||
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund's Institutional Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund's Institutional Shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's Institutional Shares operating expenses are before waivers as shown in the table and remain the same. Although your actual costs and returns may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
| 1 Year | $ | 60 | |
| 3 Years | $ | 189 | |
| 5 Years | $ | 329 | |
| 10 Years | $ | 738 |
</R>
<R>
The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in the stocks of the Index in the same weights as the Index. This is called a "full replication" strategy. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market price per share. As of September 30, 2000, the capitalization range of the issuers comprising the Index was $397 million to $571,382 million. As of the same date, the weighted median market capitalization of the Fund was $81,563 million. The Fund purchases Index futures contracts in order to more closely track the performance of the Index, while maintaining cash equivalent positions as necessary for the Fund's operations.
</R>
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
<R>
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
Stock index futures provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an index at a price, date, and time specified when the contract is made. Entering into a contract to buy is commonly referred to as buying or purchasing a contract or holding a long position. Entering into a contract to sell is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position. Futures are considered to be commodity contracts.
</R>
<R>
The value of equity securities in the Fund's portfolio will rise and fall. These fluctuations could be a sustained trend or a drastic movement. The Fund's portfolio will reflect changes in prices of individual portfolio stocks or general changes in stock valuations. Consequently, the Fund's share price may decline. The Fund's investment in stock index futures will be subject to the same risk.
</R>
<R>
Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector risk is the possibility that a certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole. As the Manager allocates more of the Fund's portfolio holdings to a particular sector, the Fund's performance will be more susceptible to any economic, business or other developments which generally affect that sector.
</R>
<R>
You can purchase or redeem Shares any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open. When the Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in this prospectus) it is processed at the next calculated net asset value (NAV). The Fund does not charge a front-end sales charge. NAV is determined at the end of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open.
</R>
The Fund generally values equity securities according to the last sale price in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market).
<R>
Futures contracts and options are generally valued at market values established by the exchanges on which they are traded at the close of trading on such exchanges. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued according to the mean between the last bid and the last asked price for the option as provided by an investment dealer or other financial institution that deals in the option.
</R>
The required minimum initial investment for Fund Shares is $25,000. There is no required minimum subsequent investment amount.
An account may be opened with a smaller amount as long as the $25,000 minimum is reached within 90 days. An institutional investor's minimum investment is calculated by combining all accounts it maintains with the Fund. Accounts established through investment professionals may be subject to a smaller minimum investment amount. Keep in mind that investment professionals may charge you fees for their services in connection with your Share transactions.
The Fund offers three share classes: Institutional Shares, Institutional Service Shares, and Class C Shares, each representing interests in a single portfolio of securities. This prospectus relates only to Institutional Shares. Each share class has different expenses, which affect their performance. Contact your investment professional or call 1-800-341-7400 for more information concerning the other classes.
The Fund's Distributor, Federated Securities Corp., markets the Shares described in this prospectus to institutions acting on behalf of their customers or to individuals, directly or through investment professionals.
The Distributor and its affiliates may pay out of their assets other amounts (including items of material value) to investment professionals for marketing and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated).
You may purchase Shares through an investment professional or directly from the Fund. The Fund reserves the right to reject any request to purchase Shares.
Investment professionals should send payments according to the instructions in the sections "By Wire" or "By Check."
<R>
In order to maximize the Fund's ability to track the Index, investors are urged to transmit purchase requests prior to 2:00 p.m. (eastern time).
</R>
You will become the owner of Shares and your Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your wire or your check. If your check does not clear, your purchase will be canceled and you could be liable for any losses or fees incurred by the Fund or Federated Shareholder Services Company, the Fund's transfer agent.
An institution may establish an account and place an order by calling the Fund and the Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives the order.

<R>
You may redeem Shares by simply calling the Fund at 1-800-341-7400. If you call before the end of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) you will receive a redemption amount based on that day's NAV.
</R>
You may redeem Shares by mailing a written request to the Fund.
You will receive a redemption amount based on the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your written request in proper form.

Send requests by private courier or overnight delivery service to:
Federated Shareholder Services Company
1099 Hingham Street
Rockland, MA 02370-3317
All requests must include:
Call your investment professional or the Fund if you need special instructions.
Signatures must be guaranteed if:
A signature guarantee is designed to protect your account from fraud. Obtain a signature guarantee from a bank or trust company, savings association, credit union or broker, dealer, or securities exchange member. A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.
Your redemption proceeds will be mailed by check to your address of record. The following payment options are available if you complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form. These payment options require a signature guarantee if they were not established when the account was opened:
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Redemption proceeds normally are wired or mailed within one business day after receiving a request in proper form. Payment may be delayed up to seven days:
You will not accrue interest or dividends on uncashed checks from the Fund if those checks are undeliverable and returned to the Fund.
The Fund will record your telephone instructions. If the Fund does not follow reasonable procedures, it may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.
The Fund no longer issues share certificates. If you are redeeming Shares represented by certificates previously issued by the Fund, you must return the certificates with your written redemption request. For your protection, send your certificates by registered or certified mail, but do not endorse them.
You will receive confirmation of purchases and redemptions. In addition, you will receive periodic statements reporting all account activity, including dividends and capital gains paid.
The Fund declares and pays any dividends quarterly to shareholders. Dividends are paid to all shareholders invested in the Fund on the record date. The record date is the date on which a shareholder must officially own Shares in order to earn a dividend.
In addition, the Fund pays any capital gains at least annually. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments.
If you purchase Shares just before a Fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution, you will pay the full price for the Shares and then receive a portion of the price back in the form of a taxable distribution, whether or not you reinvest the distribution in Shares. Therefore, you should consider the tax implications of purchasing Shares shortly before the Fund declares a dividend or capital gain. Contact your investment professional or the Fund for information concerning when dividends and capital gains will be paid.
Due to the high cost of maintaining accounts with low balances, accounts may be closed if redemptions cause the account balance to fall below the minimum initial investment amount. Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
The Fund sends an annual statement of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Fund distributions of dividends and capital gains are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested in the Fund. Dividends are taxable as ordinary income; capital gains are taxable at different rates depending upon the length of time the Fund holds its assets.
Fund distributions are expected to be both dividends and capital gains. Redemptions are taxable sales. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your federal, state, and local tax liability.
<R>

More than 4,000 investment professionals make Federated Funds available to their customers.

October 31, 2000
Federated Index 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 three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Max-Cap 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 investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly-traded common stocks, by duplicating the composition of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.
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.
Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. 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. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.
The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. 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.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to book and tax differences. The following reclassifications have been made to the financial statements.
| Increase (Decrease) | ||||
| Paid In Capital |
Accumulated Net Realized Gain |
Undistributed Net Investment Income |
||
| $264,850 | $19 | $(264,869) | ||
Net investment income, net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund, for federal tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $50,697,204, which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the 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 in 2008.
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.
The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index 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. For the year ended October 31, 2000, the Fund had realized losses on futures contracts of $12,695,194.
Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:
| Expiration Date | Contracts to Receive | Position | Unrealized Appreciation |
|||
| December 2000 | 305 S&P 500 Index Futures | Long | $3,229,810 |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value) for each class of shares.
Transactions in shares were as follows:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Federated Max-Cap Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Federated Index Trust) as of October 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 October 31, 2000, 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 the Federated Max-Cap Fund of the Federated Index Trust at October 31, 2000, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund's Institutional Service Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund's Institutional Service Shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's Institutional Service Shares operating expenses are before waivers as shown in the table and remain the same. Although your actual costs and returns may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<R>
The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in the stocks of the Index in the same weights as the Index. This is called a "full replication" strategy. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market price per share. As of September 30, 2000, the capitalization range of the issuers comprising the Index was $397 million to $571,382 million. As of the same date, the weighted median market capitalization of the Fund was $81,563 million.
</R>
The Fund purchases Index futures contracts in order to more closely track the performance of the Index, while maintaining cash equivalent positions as necessary for the Fund's operations.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
<R>
Stock index futures provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an index at a price, date, and time specified when the contract is made. Entering into a contract to buy is commonly referred to as buying or purchasing a contract or holding a long position. Entering into a contract to sell is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position. Futures are considered to be commodity contracts.

You can purchase or redeem Shares any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open. When the Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in this prospectus) it is processed at the next calculated net asset value (NAV). The Fund does not charge a front-end sales charge. NAV is determined at the end of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open.
</R>
The Fund generally values equity securities according to the last sale price in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market).
<R>
Futures contracts and options are generally valued at market values established by the exchanges on which they are traded at the close of trading on such exchanges. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued according to the mean between the last bid and the last asked price for the option as provided by an investment dealer or other financial institution that deals in the option.
</R>
The required minimum initial investment for Fund Shares is $25,000. There is no required minimum subsequent investment amount.
An account may be opened with a smaller amount as long as the $25,000 minimum is reached within 90 days. An institutional investor's minimum investment is calculated by combining all accounts it maintains with the Fund. Accounts established through investment professionals may be subject to a smaller minimum investment amount. Keep in mind that investment professionals may charge you fees for their services in connection with your Share transactions.
The Fund offers three share classes: Institutional Shares, Institutional Service Shares, and Class C Shares, each representing interests in a single portfolio of securities. This prospectus relates only to Institutional Service Shares. Each share class has different expenses, which affect their performance. Contact your investment professional or call 1-800-341-7400 for more information concerning the other classes.
The Fund's Distributor, Federated Securities Corp., markets the Shares described in this prospectus to institutions or to individuals, directly or through investment professionals.
When the Distributor receives marketing fees, it may pay some or all of them to investment professionals. The Distributor and its affiliates may pay out of their assets other amounts (including items of material value) to investment professionals for marketing and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated).
<R>
The Fund has adopted a Rule 12b-1 Plan, which allows it to pay marketing fees to the Distributor and investment professionals for the sale, distribution and customer servicing of the Fund's Institutional Service Shares. Because these Shares pay marketing fees on an ongoing basis, your investment cost may be higher over time than other Shares with different marketing fees.
</R>
You may purchase Shares through an investment professional or directly from the Fund. The Fund reserves the right to reject any request to purchase Shares.
Investment professionals should send payments according to the instructions in the sections "By Wire" or "By Check."
<R>
In order to maximize the Fund's ability to track the Index, investors are urged to transmit purchase requests prior to 2:00 p.m. (Eastern time).
</R>
You will become the owner of Shares and your Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your wire or your check. If your check does not clear, your purchase will be canceled and you could be liable for any losses or fees incurred by the Fund or Federated Shareholder Services Company, the Fund's transfer agent.
An institution may establish an account and place an order by calling the Fund and the Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives the order.

All requests must include:
Call your investment professional or the Fund if you need special instructions.
Signatures must be guaranteed if:
A signature guarantee is designed to protect your account from fraud. Obtain a signature guarantee from a bank or trust company, savings association, credit union or broker, dealer, or securities exchange member. A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.
Your redemption proceeds will be mailed by check to your address of record. The following payment options are available if you complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form. These payment options require a signature guarantee if they were not established when the account was opened:
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Redemption proceeds normally are wired or mailed within one business day after receiving a request in proper form. Payment may be delayed up to seven days:
You will not accrue interest or dividends on uncashed checks from the Fund if those checks are undeliverable and returned to the Fund.
The Fund will record your telephone instructions. If the Fund does not follow reasonable procedures, it may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.
The Fund no longer issues share certificates. If you are redeeming Shares represented by certificates previously issued by the Fund, you must return the certificates with your written redemption request. For your protection, send your certificates by registered or certified mail, but do not endorse them.
You will receive confirmation of purchases and redemptions. In addition, you will receive periodic statements reporting all account activity, including dividends and capital gains paid.
The Fund declares and pays any dividends quarterly to shareholders. Dividends are paid to all shareholders invested in the Fund on the record date. The record date is the date on which a shareholder must officially own Shares in order to earn a dividend.
In addition, the Fund pays any capital gains at least annually. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments.
If you purchase Shares just before a Fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution, you will pay the full price for the Shares and then receive a portion of the price back in the form of a taxable distribution, whether or not you reinvest the distribution in Shares. Therefore, you should consider the tax implications of purchasing Shares shortly before the Fund declares a dividend or capital gain. Contact your investment professional or the Fund for information concerning when dividends and capital gains will be paid.
Due to the high cost of maintaining accounts with low balances, accounts may be closed if redemptions cause the account balance to fall below the minimum initial investment amount. Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
The Fund sends an annual statement of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Fund distributions of dividends and capital gains are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested in the Fund. Dividends are taxable as ordinary income; capital gains are taxable at different rates depending upon the length of time the Fund holds its assets.
Fund distributions are expected to be both dividends and capital gains. Redemptions are taxable sales. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your federal, state, and local tax liability.

See Notes which are an integral part of the Financial Statements
Federated Index 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 three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Max-Cap 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 investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly-traded common stocks, by duplicating the composition of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.
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.
Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. 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. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.
The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. 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.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to book and tax differences. The following reclassifications have been made to the financial statements.
| Increase (Decrease) |
||||
| Paid In Capital |
Accumulated Net Realized Gain |
Undistributed Net Investment Income |
||
| $264,850 | $19 | $(264,869) | ||
Net investment income, net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund, for federal tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $50,697,204, which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the 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 in 2008.
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.
The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index 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. For the year ended October 31, 2000, the Fund had realized losses on futures contracts of $12,695,194.
Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:
| Expiration Date | Contracts to Receive | Position | Unrealized Appreciation |
|||
| December 2000 | 305 S&P 500 Index Futures | Long | $3,229,810 |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value) for each class of shares.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Federated Max-Cap Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Federated Index Trust) as of October 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 October 31, 2000, 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 the Federated Max-Cap Fund of the Federated Index Trust at October 31, 2000, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund's Class C Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund's Class C Shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. Expenses assuming no redemption are also shown. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's Class C Shares operating expenses are before waiver as shown in the table and remain the same. Although your actual costs and returns may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
| 1 Year | 3 Years | 5 Years | 10 Years | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Expenses assuming redemption | $236 | $425 | $734 | $1,613 | ||||
| Expenses assuming no redemption | $136 | $425 | $734 | $1,613 |

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in the stocks of the Index in the same weights as the Index. This is called a "full replication" strategy. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market price per share. As of September 30, 1999, the capitalization range of the issuers comprising the Index was $397 million to $571,382 million. As of the same date, the weighted median market capitalization of the Fund was $81,563 million.
</R>
The Fund purchases Index futures contracts in order to more closely track the performance of the Index, while maintaining cash equivalent positions as necessary for the Fund's operations.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
Stock index futures provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an index at a price, date, and time specified when the contract is made. Entering into a contract to buy is commonly referred to as buying or purchasing a contract or holding a long position. Entering into a contract to sell is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position. Futures are considered to be commodity contracts.
<R>
The value of equity securities in the Fund's portfolio will rise and fall. These fluctuations could be a sustained trend or a drastic movement. The Fund's portfolio will reflect changes in prices of individual portfolio stocks or general changes in stock valuations. Consequently, the Fund's share price may decline. The Fund's investment in stock index futures will be subject to the same risk.
</R>
<R>
Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector risk is the possibility that a certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole. As the Manager allocates more of the Fund's portfolio holdings to a particular sector, the Fund's performance will be more susceptible to any economic, business or other developments which generally affect that sector.
You can purchase, redeem or exchange Shares any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open. When the Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in this prospectus) it is processed at the next calculated net asset value (NAV). The Fund does not charge a front-end sales charge. NAV is determined at the end of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open.
</R>
The Fund generally values equity securities according to the last sale price in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market).
Futures contracts and options are generally valued at market values established by the exchanges on which they are traded at the close of trading on such exchanges. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued according to the mean between the last bid and the last asked price for the option as provided by an investment dealer or other financial institution that deals in the option.
The following table summarizes the minimum required investment amount and the maximum sales charge, if any, that you will pay on an investment in the Fund. Keep in mind that investment professionals may charge you fees for their services in connection with your Share transactions.
<R>
| Maximum Sales Charge | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shares Offered | Minimum Initial/Subsequent Investment Amounts1 |
Front-End Sales Charge |
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge2 |
|||
| Class C | $1,500/$100 | None | 1.00% | |||
</R>
1 The minimum initial and subsequent investment amounts for retirement plans are $250 and $100, respectively. The minimum subsequent investment amounts for Systematic Investment Programs is $50. Investment professionals may impose higher or lower minimum investment requirements on their customers than those imposed by the Fund.
2 See "Sales Charge When You Redeem."
Your redemption proceeds may be reduced by a sales charge, commonly referred to as a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC).
| Class C Shares |
| You will pay a 1% CDSC if you redeem Shares within one year of the purchase date. |
You will not be charged a CDSC when redeeming Shares:
<R>
If your redemption qualifies, you or your investment professional should notify the Distributor at the time of redemption to eliminate the CDSC. If the Distributor is not notified, the CDSC will apply.
To keep the sales charge as low as possible, the Fund redeems your Shares in this order:
</R>
The CDSC is then calculated using the share price at the time of purchase or redemption, whichever is lower.
The Fund offers three share classes: Institutional Shares, Institutional Service Shares, and Class C Shares, each representing interests in a single portfolio of securities. This prospectus relates only to Class C Shares. Each share class has different expenses, which affect their performance. Contact your investment professional or call 1-800-341-7400 for more information concerning the other classes.
The Fund's Distributor, Federated Securities Corp., markets the Shares described in this prospectus to institutions acting on behalf of their customers or to individuals, directly or through investment professionals.
When the Distributor receives marketing fees, it may pay some or all of them to investment professionals. The Distributor and its affiliates may pay out of their assets other amounts (including items of material value) to investment professionals for marketing and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated).
The Fund has adopted a Rule 12b-1 Plan, which allows it to pay marketing fees to the Distributor and investment professionals for the sale, distribution and customer servicing of the Fund's Class C Shares. Because these Shares pay marketing fees on an ongoing basis, your investment cost may be higher over time than other shares with different marketing fees.
You may purchase Shares through an investment professional or directly from the Fund. The Fund reserves the right to reject any request to purchase Shares.
Investment professionals should send payments according to the instructions in the sections "By Wire" or "By Check."
<R>
In order to maximize the Fund's ability to track the Index, investors are urged to transmit purchase requests prior to 2:00 p.m. (Eastern time).
</R>
You will become the owner of Shares and your Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your wire or your check. If your check does not clear, your purchase will be canceled and you could be liable for any losses or fees incurred by the Fund or Federated Shareholder Services Company, the Fund's transfer agent.
An institution may establish an account and place an order by calling the Fund and the Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives the order.

Once you have opened an account, you may automatically purchase additional Shares on a regular basis by completing the Systematic Investment Program (SIP) section of the New Account Form or by contacting the Fund or your investment professional. The minimum investment amount for SIPs is $50.
<R>
</R>
Once you have opened an account, you may purchase additional Shares through a depository institution that is an ACH member. This purchase option can be established by completing the appropriate sections of the New Account Form.
You may purchase Shares as retirement investments (such as qualified plans and IRAs or transfer or rollover of assets). Call your investment professional or the Fund for information on retirement investments. We suggest that you discuss retirement investments with your tax adviser. You may be subject to an annual IRA account fee.
You should redeem or exchange Shares:
Submit your redemption or exchange request to your investment professional by the end of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). The redemption amount you will receive is based upon the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives the order from your investment professional.
<R>
You may redeem or exchange Shares by simply calling the Fund at 1-800-341-7400. If you call before the end of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) you will receive a redemption amount based on that day's NAV.
</R>
You may redeem or exchange Shares by mailing a written request to the Fund. You will receive a redemption amount based on the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your written request in proper form.
Send requests by mail to:

Send requests by private courier or overnight delivery service to:
Federated Shareholder Services Company
1099 Hingham Street
Rockland, MA 02370-3317
All requests must include:
Call your investment professional or the Fund if you need special instructions.
Signatures must be guaranteed if:
A signature guarantee is designed to protect your account from fraud. Obtain a signature guarantee from a bank or trust company, savings association, credit union or broker, dealer, or securities exchange member. A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.
Your redemption proceeds will be mailed by check to your address of record. The following payment options are available if you complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form. These payment options require a signature guarantee if they were not established when the account was opened:
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Redemption proceeds normally are wired or mailed within one business day after receiving a request in proper form. Payment may be delayed up to seven days:
You will not accrue interest or dividends on uncashed checks from the Fund if those checks are undeliverable and returned to the Fund.
In the absence of your specific instructions, 10% of the value of your redemption from a retirement account in the Fund may be withheld for taxes. This withholding only applies to certain types of retirement accounts.
You may exchange Shares of the Fund into Shares of the same class of another Federated Fund. To do this, you must:
An exchange is treated as a redemption and a subsequent purchase, and is a taxable transaction.
The Fund may modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time. The Fund's management or investment adviser may determine from the amount, frequency and pattern of exchanges that a shareholder is engaged in excessive trading that is detrimental to the Fund and other shareholders. If this occurs, the Fund may terminate the availability of exchanges to that shareholder and may bar that shareholder from purchasing other Federated Funds.
You may automatically redeem or exchange Shares in a minimum amount of $100 on a regular basis. Complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form or contact your investment professional or the Fund. Your account value must meet the minimum initial investment amount at the time the program is established. This program may reduce, and eventually deplete, your account. Payments should not be considered yield or income.
The Fund will record your telephone instructions. If the Fund does not follow reasonable procedures, it may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.
The Fund no longer issues share certificates. If you are redeeming Shares represented by certificates previously issued by the Fund, you must return the certificates with your written redemption request. For your protection, send your certificates by registered or certified mail, but do not endorse them.
You will receive confirmation of purchases and redemptions. In addition, you will receive periodic statements reporting all account activity, including dividends and capital gains paid.
The Fund declares and pays any dividends quarterly to shareholders. Dividends are paid to all shareholders invested in the Fund on the record date. The record date is the date on which a shareholder must officially own Shares in order to earn a dividend.
In addition, the Fund pays any capital gains at least annually. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments.
If you purchase Shares just before a Fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution, you will pay the full price for the Shares and then receive a portion of the price back in the form of a taxable distribution, whether or not you reinvest the distribution in Shares. Therefore, you should consider the tax implications of purchasing Shares shortly before the Fund declares a dividend or capital gain. Contact your investment professional or the Fund for information concerning when dividends and capital gains will be paid.
Due to the high cost of maintaining accounts with low balances, accounts may be closed if redemptions cause the account balance to fall below the minimum initial investment amount. Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
The Fund sends an annual statement of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Fund distributions of dividends and capital gains are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested in the Fund. Dividends are taxable as ordinary income; capital gains are taxable at different rates depending upon the length of time the Fund holds its assets.
Fund distributions are expected to be both dividends and capital gains. Redemptions are taxable sales. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your federal, state, and local tax liability.

See Notes which are an integral part of the Financial Statements
October 31, 2000
Federated Index 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 three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Max-Cap 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 investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly-traded common stocks, by duplicating the composition of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.
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.
Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. 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. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.
The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. 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.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to book and tax differences. The following reclassifications have been made to the financial statements.
| Increase (Decrease) | ||||
| Paid In Capital | Accumulated Net Realized Gain |
Undistributed Net Investment Income |
||
| $264,850 | $19 | $(264,869) | ||
Net investment income, realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund, for federal tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $50,697,204, which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the 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 in 2008.
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.
The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index 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. For the year ended October 31, 2000, the Fund had realized losses on futures contracts of $12,695,194.
Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:
| Expiration Date | Contracts to Receive | Position | Unrealized Appreciation |
|||
| December 2000 | 305 S&P 500 Index Futures | Long | $3,229,810 |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value) for each class of shares.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Federated Max-Cap Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Federated Index Trust) as of October 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 October 31, 2000, 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 the Federated Max-Cap Fund of the Federated Index Trust at October 31, 2000, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The bar chart shows the variability of the Fund's total returns on a calendar year-end basis.
The Fund's shares are sold without a sales charge (load). The total returns displayed above are based upon net asset value.
The Fund's total return for the nine-month period from January 1, 2000 to September 30, 2000 was 21.66%.
Within the period shown in the chart, the Fund's shares highest quarterly return was 27.73% (quarter ended December 31, 1998). Its lowest quarterly return was (14.63%) (quarter ended September 30, 1998).
The following table represents the Fund's Average Annual Total Returns for the calendar periods ended December 31, 1999. The table shows the Fund's total returns averaged over a period of years relative to the Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index (S&P 400), a broad based market index. Total returns for the index shown do not reflect sales charges, expenses or other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. Index is unmanaged, and it is not possible to invest directly in an index.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund's Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund's Shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's Shares operating expenses are before waiver as shown in the table and remain the same. Although your actual costs and returns may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
| 1 Year | $ 81 | |
| 3 Years | $252 | |
| 5 Years | $439 | |
| 10 Years | $978 |
</R>
<R>
The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in the stocks of the Index in the same weights as the Index. This is called a "full replication" strategy. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market price per share. As of September 30, 2000, the capitalization range of the issuers comprising the Index was $397 million to $571,382 million. As of the same date, the weighted median market capitalization of the Fund was $81,563 million.
</R>
The Fund purchases Index futures contracts in order to more closely track the performance of the Index, while maintaining cash equivalent positions as necessary for the Fund's operations.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
<R>
Stock index futures provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an index at a price, date, and time specified when the contract is made. Entering into a contract to buy is commonly referred to as buying or purchasing a contract or holding a long position. Entering into a contract to sell is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position. Futures are considered to be commodity contracts.
</R>
<R>
The value of equity securities in the Fund's portfolio will rise and fall. These fluctuations could be a sustained trend or a drastic movement. The Fund's portfolio will reflect changes in prices of individual portfolio stocks or general changes in stock valuations. Consequently, the Fund's share price may decline. The Fund's investment in stock index futures will be subject to the same risk.
</R>
Generally, the smaller the market capitalization of a company, the fewer the number of shares traded daily, the less liquid its stock and the more volatile its price. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of its outstanding shares by the current market price per share.
Companies with smaller market capitalizations also tend to have unproven track records, a limited product or service base and limited access to capital. These factors also increase risks and make these companies more likely to fail than companies with larger market capitalizations.
Trading opportunities are more limited for equity securities that are not widely held. This may make it more difficult to sell or buy a security at a favorable price or time. Consequently, the Fund may have to accept a lower price to sell a security, sell other securities to raise cash or give up an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on the Fund's performance. Infrequent trading of securities may also lead to an increase in their price volatility.
Liquidity risk also refers to the possibility that the Fund may not be able to sell a security or close out a derivative contract when it wants to. If this happens, the Fund will be required to continue to hold the security or keep the position open, and the Fund could incur losses.
Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts generally carry greater liquidity risk than exchange-traded contracts.
<R>
Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector risk is the possibility that a certain sector may underperform other sectors or the market as a whole. As the Manager allocates more of the Fund's portfolio holdings to a particular sector, the Fund's performance will be more susceptible to any economic, business or other developments which generally affect that sector.
You can purchase or redeem Shares any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open. When the Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in this prospectus) it is processed at the next calculated net asset value (NAV). The Fund does not charge a front-end sales charge. NAV is determined at the end of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open.
The Fund generally values equity securities according to the last sale price in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market).
Futures contracts and options are generally valued at market values established by the exchanges on which they are traded at the close of trading on such exchanges. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued according to the mean between the last bid and the last asked price for the option as provided by an investment dealer or other financial institution that deals in the option.
</R>
The required minimum initial investment for Fund Shares is $25,000. There is no required minimum subsequent investment amount.
An account may be opened with a smaller amount as long as the $25,000 minimum is reached within 90 days. An institutional investor's minimum investment is calculated by combining all accounts it maintains with the Fund. Accounts established through investment professionals may be subject to a smaller minimum investment amount. Keep in mind that investment professionals may charge you fees for their services in connection with your Share transactions.

All requests must include:
Call your investment professional or the Fund if you need special instructions.
Signatures must be guaranteed if:
A signature guarantee is designed to protect your account from fraud. Obtain a signature guarantee from a bank or trust company, savings association, credit union or broker, dealer, or securities exchange member.A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.
Your redemption proceeds will be mailed by check to your address of record. The following payment options are available if you complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form. These payment options require a signature guarantee if they were not established when the account was opened:
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Redemption proceeds normally are wired or mailed within one business day after receiving a request in proper form. Payment may be delayed up to seven days:
You will not accrue interest or dividends on uncashed checks from the Fund if those checks are undeliverable and returned to the Fund.
The Fund will record your telephone instructions. If the Fund does not follow reasonable procedures, it may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.
The Fund no longer issues share certificates. If you are redeeming Shares represented by certificates previously issued by the Fund, you must return the certificates with your written redemption request. For your protection, send your certificates by registered or certified mail, but do not endorse them.
You will receive confirmation of purchases and redemptions. In addition, you will receive periodic statements reporting all account activity, including dividends and capital gains paid.
The Fund declares and pays any dividends quarterly to shareholders. Dividends are paid to all shareholders invested in the Fund on the record date. The record date is the date on which a shareholder must officially own Shares in order to earn a dividend.
In addition, the Fund pays any capital gains at least annually. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments.
If you purchase Shares just before a Fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution, you will pay the full price for the Shares and then receive a portion of the price back in the form of a taxable distribution, whether or not you reinvest the distribution in Shares. Therefore, you should consider the tax implications of purchasing Shares shortly before the Fund declares a dividend or capital gain. Contact your investment professional or the Fund for information concerning when dividends and capital gains will be paid.
Due to the high cost of maintaining accounts with low balances, accounts may be closed if redemptions cause the account balance to fall below the minimum initial investment amount. Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
The Fund sends an annual statement of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Fund distributions of dividends and capital gains are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested in the Fund. Dividends are taxable as ordinary income; capital gains are taxable at different rates depending upon the length of time the Fund holds its assets.
Fund distributions are expected to be both dividends and capital gains. Redemptions are taxable sales. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your federal, state, and local tax liability.

The following Financial Highlights will help you understand the Fund's financial performance for its past five fiscal years. Some of the information is presented on a per share basis.

Federated Index 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 three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Mid-Cap 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 investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results generally corresponding to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly traded common stocks that comprise the mid-level stock capitalization sector of the United States equity market.
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.
Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. 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. Investments in other open-ended regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.
The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.
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.
The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index 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. For the year ended October 31, 2000, the Fund had realized gains on futures contracts of $1,190,815.
Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:
| Expiration Date | Contracts to Receive | Position | Unrealized Appreciation | |||
| December 2000 | 38 S&P MidCap 400 Index Futures | Long | $27,171 |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Transactions in shares were as follows:
| Year Ended October 31 | 2000 | 1999 | ||||
| Shares sold | 8,714,919 | 3,819,553 | ||||
| Shares issued to shareholders in payment of distributions declared | 703,376 | 419,466 | ||||
| Shares redeemed | (5,061,968 | ) | (3,052,195 | ) | ||

| NET CHANGE RESULTING FROM SHARE TRANSACTIONS | 4,356,327 | 1,186,824 |
Federated Investment Management Company, the Fund's manager (the "Manager"), receives for its services an annual investment management fee equal to 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Under the terms of a sub-manager agreement between the Manager and Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc. (the "Sub-Manager"), the Sub-Manager receives an annual fee from the Manager equal to 0.035% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund may invest in Prime Value Obligations Fund, which is managed by the Manager. The Manager has agreed to reimburse certain management fees as a result of these transactions.
Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company ("FSSC"), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund 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.
Federated Services Company ("FServ"), through its subsidiary FSSC, serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC is based on the size, type, and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.
FServ maintains the Fund's accounting records for which it receives a fee. The fee is based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses.
Certain of the Officers and Trustees of the Trust are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities (and in-kind contributions), for the year ended October 31, 2000, were as follows:
|
Purchases |
|
$128,208,356 |
|
Sales |
|
$ 54,830,206 |
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Federated Mid-Cap Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Federated Index Trust) as of October 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 October 31, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from the brokers were not received. 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 the Federated Mid-Cap Fund of the Federated Index Trust at October 31, 2000, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Fund's investment objective is to provide investment results that generally correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of the approximately 2,000 publicly traded common stocks that are ranked in terms of capitalization below the top 1,000 stocks that comprise the large and mid-range capitalization sector of the United States equity market. This group of stocks is known as the Russell 2000® Index. While there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective, it endeavors to do so by following the strategies and policies described in this prospectus.
The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the small capitalization common stocks comprising the Index.
All mutual funds take investment risks. Therefore, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. The primary factors that may reduce the Fund's returns include:
<R>
The Shares offered by this prospectus are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not endorsed or 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.
[Graphic representation Omitted--See Appendix]
The bar chart shows the variability of the Fund's Institutional Shares total returns on a calendar year-end basis.
The Fund's Institutional Shares are sold without a sales charge (load). The total returns displayed above are based upon net asset value.
The Fund's Institutional Shares total return for the nine-month period from January 1, 2000 to September 30, 2000 was 2.48%.
Within the period shown in the chart, the Fund's Institutional Shares highest quarterly return was 18.09% (quarter ended December 31, 1999). Its lowest quarterly return was (20.58%) (quarter ended September 30, 1998).
The following table represents the Fund's Institutional Shares Average Annual Total Returns for the calendar periods ended December 31, 1999. The table shows the Fund's Institutional Shares total returns averaged over a period of years relative to the Russell 2000® Index, a broad based market index. Total returns for the index shown do not reflect sales charges, expenses or other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance.

| Calendar Period | Fund | Russell 2000 | ||
| 1 Year | 18.87% | 21.26% | ||
| 5 Years | 14.80% | 16.69% | ||
| Start of Performance1 | 13.17% | 15.58% |
1 The Fund's Institutional Shares start of performance date was August 11, 1992.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. This information provides you with historical performance information so that you can analyze whether the Fund's investment risks are balanced by its potential returns.
This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold the Fund's Institutional Shares.
| Shareholder Fees | ||
| Fees Paid Directly From Your Investment | ||
| Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price) | None | |
| Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of original purchase price or redemption proceeds, as applicable) | None | |
| Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Reinvested Dividends (and other Distributions) (as a percentage of offering price) | None | |
| Redemption Fee (as a percentage of amount redeemed, if applicable) | None | |
| Exchange Fee | None | |
| Annual Fund Operating Expenses (Before Waiver)1 | ||
| Expenses That are Deducted From Fund Assets (as a percentage of average net assets) | ||

| Distribution (12b-1) Fee | None | |
| Shareholder Services Fee2 | 0.25% | |
| Other Expenses | 0.34% | |
| Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses | 1.09% | |

| Total Waiver of Fund Expenses | 0.13% | |
| Total Actual Annual Fund Operating Expenses (after waiver) | 0.96% | |
| 2 The shareholder services provider voluntarily waived a portion of the shareholder services fee. This voluntary waiver can be terminated at any time.

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund's Institutional Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund's Institutional Shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's Institutional Shares operating expenses are before waiver as shown in the table and remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
| 1 Year | $ | 111 | |
| 3 Years | $ | 347 | |
| 5 Years | $ | 601 | |
| 10 Years | $ | 1,329 |
</R>
<R>
The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in the stocks of the Index in the same weights as the Index. This is called a "full replication" strategy. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market price per share. As of September 30, 2000, the capitalization range of the issuers comprising Index was $9,000,000 to $5,583,000,000. As of the same date, the weighted median market capitalization of the Fund was $894,000,000.
The Fund purchases Index futures contracts in order to more closely track the performance of the Index, while maintaining cash equivalent positions as necessary for the Fund's operations.
</R>
<R>
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund invests.
</R>
<R>
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
</R>
<R>
</R>
<R>
You can purchase or redeem Shares any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open. When the Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in this prospectus) it is processed at the next calculated net asset value (NAV). The Fund does not charge a front-end sales charge. NAV is determined at the end of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open.
The Fund generally values equity securities according to the last sale price in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market).
Futures contracts and options are generally valued at market values established by the exchanges on which they are traded at the close of trading on such exchanges. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued according to the mean between the last bid and the last asked price for the option as provided by an investment dealer or other financial institution that deals in the option.
The required minimum initial investment for Fund Shares is $25,000. There is no required minimum subsequent investment amount. An institutional investor's minimum investment is calculated by combining all accounts it maintains with the Fund. Accounts established through investment professionals may be subject to a smaller minimum investment amount. Keep in mind that investment professionals may charge you fees for their services in connection with your Share transactions.
</R>
The Fund offers two share classes: Institutional Shares and Class C Shares, each representing interests in a single portfolio of securities. This prospectus relates only to Institutional Shares. Each share class has different expenses, which affect their performance. Contact your investment professional or call 1-800-341-7400 for more information concerning the other class.
The Fund's Distributor, Federated Securities Corp., markets the Shares described in this prospectus to institutions acting on behalf of their customers or to individuals, directly or through investment professionals.
The Distributor and its affiliates may pay out of their assets other amounts (including items of material value) to investment professionals for marketing and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated).
You may purchase Shares through an investment professional or directly from the Fund. The Fund reserves the right to reject any request to purchase Shares.
<R>
Investment professionals should send payments according to the instructions in the sections "By Wire" or "By Check."
</R>
You will become the owner of Shares and your Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your wire or your check. If your check does not clear, your purchase will be canceled and you could be liable for any losses or fees incurred by the Fund or Federated Shareholder Services Company, the Fund's transfer agent.
An institution may establish an account and place an order by calling the Fund and the Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives the order.

Federated Shareholder Services Company
1099 Hingham Street
Rockland, MA 02370-3317
All requests must include:
Call your investment professional or the Fund if you need special instructions.
Signatures must be guaranteed if:
A signature guarantee is designed to protect your account from fraud. Obtain a signature guarantee from a bank or trust company, savings association, credit union or broker, dealer, or securities exchange member. A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.
Your redemption proceeds will be mailed by check to your address of record. The following payment options are available if you complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form. These payment options require a signature guarantee if they were not established when the account was opened:
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Redemption proceeds normally are wired or mailed within one business day after receiving a request in proper form. Payment may be delayed up to seven days:
You will not accrue interest or dividends on uncashed checks from the Fund if those checks are undeliverable and returned to the Fund.
The Fund will record your telephone instructions. If the Fund does not follow reasonable procedures, it may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.
The Fund no longer issues share certificates. If you are redeeming Shares represented by certificates previously issued by the Fund, you must return the certificates with your written redemption request. For your protection, send your certificates by registered or certified mail, but do not endorse them.
You will receive confirmation of purchases and redemptions. In addition, you will receive periodic statements reporting all account activity, including dividends and capital gains paid.
The Fund declares and pays any dividends quarterly to shareholders. Dividends are paid to all shareholders invested in the Fund on the record date. The record date is the date on which a shareholder must officially own Shares in order to earn a dividend.
In addition, the Fund pays any capital gains at least annually. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments.
If you purchase Shares just before a Fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution, you will pay the full price for the Shares and then receive a portion of the price back in the form of a taxable distribution, whether or not you reinvest the distribution in Shares. Therefore, you should consider the tax implications of purchasing Shares shortly before the Fund declares a dividend or capital gain. Contact your investment professional or the Fund for information concerning when dividends and capital gains will be paid.
Due to the high cost of maintaining accounts with low balances, accounts may be closed if redemptions cause the account balance to fall below the minimum initial investment amount. Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
The Fund sends an annual statement of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Fund distributions of dividends and capital gains are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested in the Fund. Dividends are taxable as ordinary income; capital gains are taxable at different rates depending upon the length of time the Fund holds its assets.
Fund distributions are expected to be both dividends and capital gains. Redemptions are taxable sales. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your federal, state, and local tax liability.

The Manager's responsibilities include selecting the Sub-Manager and continued review and evaluation of the Sub-Manager's performance. The Manager's address is Federated Investors Tower, 1001 Liberty Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-3779.
The Manager has delegated daily management of the Fund's assets to the Sub-Manager, who is paid by the Manager and not by the Fund, based on net assets under management. The Sub-Manager develops, maintains and runs the computer program designed to determine which securities are purchased and sold to replicate the composition of the Index. The Sub-Manager has complete discretion, subject to the Manager's oversight, to purchase and sell portfolio securities for the Fund. The Sub-Manager's address is 50 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, IL 60675. The Sub-Manager is a subsidiary of the Northern Trust Company and is an investment adviser primarily to corporate defined benefit and defined contribution plans as well as public pension funds and tax-exempt foundations and endowments. These plans have as of September 30, 2000, placed approximately $72.6 billion in assets with the Sub-Manager. Since 1973, the Sub-Manager has developed and managed a family of equity and bond index funds in which some 681 nationwide non-financial institution clients invest. In total, the Sub-Manager manages 77 commingled/common trust funds. The Northern Trust Company is a subsidiary of Northern Trust Corporation, a bank holding company and one of the nation's largest trust institutions with subsidiaries located across the United States and in several other countries. As of September 30, 2000, total assets of Northern Trust Corporation were $34.8 billion and subsidiaries of Northern Trust Corporation held trust assets under administration of $1.7 trillion.
The Adviser, Sub-Adviser and other subsidiaries of Federated advise approximately 176 mutual funds and separate accounts, which totaled approximately $125 billion in assets as of December 31, 1999. Federated was established in 1955 and is one of the largest mutual fund investment managers in the United States with approximately 1,900 employees. More than 4,000 investment professionals make Federated Funds available to their customers.
The Manager receives an annual investment management fee of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Manager may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee or reimburse the Fund for certain operating expenses.

See Notes which are an integral part of the Financial Statements
Federated Index 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 three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Mini-Cap 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 C Shares. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that generally correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of approximately 2,000 publicly traded common stocks that are ranked in terms of capitalization below the top 1,000 stocks that comprise the large and mid-range capitalization sector of the United States equity market. This group of stocks is known as the Russell 2000® Index.
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.
Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. 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. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.
The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. 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.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for tax equalization accounting. The following reclassifications have been made to the financial statements.
| Increase (Decrease) | ||
| Paid In capital | Accumulated net realized gain on investments and futures contracts |
|
| $5,500,000 | $(5,500,000) | |
Net investment income, net realized gains/losses, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary. Withholding taxes on foreign interest and dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.
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.
The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index 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. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000, the Fund had realized gains on future contracts of $2,047,768. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:
| Expiration Date | Contracts to Receive | Position | Unrealized Depreciation |
|||
| December 2000 | 40 Russell 2000 Index Futures | Long | $(752,744) |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value) for each class of shares.

Federated Investment Management Company, the Fund's manager (the "Manager"), receives for its services an annual investment management fee equal to 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Under the terms of a sub-management agreement between the Manager and Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc. (the "Sub-Manager"), the Sub-Manager receives an annual fee from the Manager equal to 0.065% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund may invest in Prime Value Obligations Fund, which is managed by the Manager. The Manager has agreed to reimburse certain investment management fees as a result of these transactions.
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 net assets of the Fund to finance activities intended to result in the sale of the Fund's Class C Shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses up to 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C Shares annually, to compensate FSC.
Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company ("FSSC"), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund 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.
Federated Services Company ("FServ"), through its subsidiary FSSC, serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC is based on the size, type, and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.
FServ maintains the Fund's accounting records for which it receives a fee. The fee is based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses.
Certain of the Officers and Trustees of the Trust are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities (and in-kind contributions), for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000, were as follows:
| Purchases | $ | 54,098,030 | |
| Sales | $ | 59,184,064 |
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Federated Mini-Cap Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Federated Index Trust) as of October 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from the brokers were not received. 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 the Federated Mini-Cap Fund of the Federated Index Trust at October 31, 2000, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Fund's investment objective is to provide investment results that generally correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of the approximately 2,000 publicly traded common stocks that are ranked in terms of capitalization below the top 1,000 stocks that comprise the large and mid-range capitalization sector of the United States equity market. This group of stocks is known as the Russell 2000® Index. While there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective, it endeavors to do so by following the strategies and policies described in this prospectus.
The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the small capitalization common stocks comprising the Index.
All mutual funds take investment risks. Therefore, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. The primary factors that may reduce the Fund's returns include:
<R>
The Shares offered by this prospectus are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not endorsed or 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.
[Graphic Representation Omitted--See Appendix]
The bar chart shows the Fund's Class C Shares total return on a calendar year-end basis.
The total return displayed for the Fund does not reflect the payment of any sales charges or recurring shareholder account fees. If these charges or fees had been included, the return shown would have been lower.
The Fund's total return for the nine-month period from January 1, 2000 to September 30, 2000 was 1.82%.
Within the period shown in the chart, the Fund's Class C Shares highest quarterly return was 17.80% (quarter ended December 31, 1999). Its lowest quarterly return was (20.80%) (quarter ended September 30, 1998).
The following table represents the Fund's Class C Shares Average Annual Total Returns, reduced to reflect applicable sales charges, for the calendar periods ended December 31, 1999. The table shows the Fund's Class C Shares total returns averaged over a period of years relative to the Russell 2000® Index, a broad based market index. Total returns for the index shown do not reflect sales charges, expenses or other fees that the SEC requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. Indexes are unmanaged, and it is not possible to invest directly in an index.
| Calendar Period | Class C Shares | Russell 2000 | ||
| 1 Year | 16.75% | 21.26% | ||
| Start of Performance1 | 5.41% | 8.41% |
1 The Fund's Class C Shares start of performance date was November 10, 1997.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. This information provides you with historical performance information so that you can analyze whether the Fund's investment risks are balanced by its potential returns.
This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold the Fund's Class C Shares.
| Shareholder Fees | ||
| Fees Paid Directly From Your Investment | ||
| Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price) | None | |
| Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of original purchase price or redemption proceeds, as applicable) | 1.00% | |

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund's Class C Shares with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund's Class C Shares for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. Expenses assuming no redemption are also shown. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's Class C Shares operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
| 1 Year | 3 Years | 5 Years | 10 Years | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Expenses assuming redemption | $287 | $579 | $996 | $2,159 | ||||
| Expenses assuming no redemption | $187 | $579 | $996 | $2,159 |

<R>
The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in the stocks of the Index in the same weights as the Index. This is called a "full replication" strategy. Market capitalization is determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current market price per share. As of September 30, 2000, the capitalization range of the issuers comprising the Index was $9,000,000 to $5,583,000,000. As of the same date, the weighted median market capitalization of the Fund was $894,000,000.
</R>
The Fund purchases Index futures contracts in order to more closely track the performance of the Index, while maintaining cash equivalent positions as necessary for the Fund's operations.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
<R>
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
</R>
<R>
</R>
<R>
You can purchase, redeem or exchange Shares any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open. When the Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in this prospectus) it is processed at the next calculated net asset value (NAV). The Fund does not charge a front-end sales charge. NAV is determined at the end of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open.
The Fund generally values equity securities according to the last sale price in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market).
</R>
Futures contracts and options are generally valued at market values established by the exchanges on which they are traded at the close of trading on such exchanges. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued according to the mean between the last bid and the last asked price for the option as provided by an investment dealer or other financial institution that deals in the option.
The following table summarizes the minimum required investment amount and the maximum sales charge, if any, that you will pay on an investment in the Fund. Keep in mind that investment professionals may charge you fees for their services in connection with your Share transactions.
<R>
| Shares Offered | Minimum Initial/Subsequent Investment Amounts1 |
Maximum Sales Charge | ||||
| Front-End Sales Charge |
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge2 |
|||||
| Class C | $1,500/$100 | None | 1.00% | |||
</R>
1 The minimum initial and subsequent investment amounts for retirement plans are $250 and $100, respectively. The minimum subsequent investment amounts for Systematic Investment Programs is $50. Investment professionals may impose higher or lower minimum investment requirements on their customers than those imposed by the Fund.
2 See "Sales Charge When You Redeem."
Your redemption proceeds may be reduced by a sales charge, commonly referred to as a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC).
| Class C Shares: |
| You will pay a 1% CDSC if you redeem Shares within one year of the purchase date. |
You will not be charged a CDSC when redeeming Shares:
To keep the sales charge as low as possible, the Fund redeems your Shares in this order:
The CDSC is then calculated using the share price at the time of purchase or redemption, whichever is lower.
The Fund offers two share classes: Institutional Shares and Class C Shares, each representing interests in a single portfolio of securities. This prospectus relates only to Class C Shares. Each share class has different expenses, which affect their performance. Contact your investment professional or call 1-800-341-7400 for more information concerning the other class.
The Fund's Distributor, Federated Securities Corp., markets the Shares described in this prospectus to institutions acting on behalf of their customers or to individuals, directly or through investment professionals. When the Distributor receives marketing fees, it may pay some or all of them to investment professionals. The Distributor and its affiliates may pay out of their assets other amounts (including items of material value) to investment professionals for marketing and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated).
<R>
The Fund has adopted a Rule 12b-1 Plan, which allows it to pay marketing fees to the Distributor and investment professionals for the sale, distribution and customer servicing of the Fund's Class C Shares. Because these Shares pay marketing fees on an ongoing basis, your investment cost may be higher over time than other shares with different marketing fees.
</R>
You may purchase Shares through an investment professional or directly from the Fund. The Fund reserves the right to reject any request to purchase Shares.
Investment professionals should send payments according to the instructions in the sections "By Wire" or "By Check."
In order to maximize the Fund's ability to track the Index, investors are urged to transmit purchase requests prior to 2:00 p.m. (Eastern time).
You will become the owner of Shares and your Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives your wire or your check. If your check does not clear, your purchase will be canceled and you could be liable for any losses or fees incurred by the Fund or Federated Shareholder Services Company, the Fund's transfer agent.
An institution may establish an account and place an order by calling the Fund and the Shares will be priced at the next calculated NAV after the Fund receives the order.

Send requests by private courier or overnight delivery service to:
Federated Shareholder Services Company
1099 Hingham Street
Rockland, MA 02370-3317
All requests must include:
Call your investment professional or the Fund if you need special instructions.
Signatures must be guaranteed if:
A signature guarantee is designed to protect your account from fraud. Obtain a signature guarantee from a bank or trust company, savings association, credit union or broker, dealer, or securities exchange member.A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee.
Your redemption proceeds will be mailed by check to your address of record. The following payment options are available if you complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form. These payment options require a signature guarantee if they were not established when the account was opened:
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Redemption proceeds normally are wired or mailed within one business day after receiving a request in proper form. Payment may be delayed up to seven days:
You will not accrue interest or dividends on uncashed checks from the Fund if those checks are undeliverable and returned to the Fund.
In the absence of your specific instructions, 10% of the value of your redemption from a retirement account in the Fund may be withheld for taxes. This withholding only applies to certain types of retirement accounts.
You may exchange Shares of the Fund into Shares of the same class of another Federated Fund. To do this, you must:
An exchange is treated as a redemption and a subsequent purchase, and is a taxable transaction.
The Fund may modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time. The Fund's management or investment adviser may determine from the amount, frequency and pattern of exchanges that a shareholder is engaged in excessive trading that is detrimental to the Fund and other shareholders. If this occurs, the Fund may terminate the availability of exchanges to that shareholder and may bar that shareholder from purchasing other Federated Funds.
You may automatically redeem or exchange Shares in a minimum amount of $100 on a regular basis. Complete the appropriate section of the New Account Form or an Account Service Options Form or contact your investment professional or the Fund. Your account value must meet the minimum initial investment amount at the time the program is established. This program may reduce, and eventually deplete, your account. Payments should not be considered yield or income.
The Fund will record your telephone instructions. If the Fund does not follow reasonable procedures, it may be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.
<R>
The Fund no longer issues share certificates. If you are redeeming or exchanging Shares represented by certificates previously issued by the Fund, you must return the certificates with your written redemption or exchange request. For your protection, send your certificates by registered or certified mail, but do not endorse them.
</R>
You will receive confirmation of purchases and redemptions. In addition, you will receive periodic statements reporting all account activity, including dividends and capital gains paid.
The Fund declares and pays any dividends quarterly to shareholders. Dividends are paid to all shareholders invested in the Fund on the record date. The record date is the date on which a shareholder must officially own Shares in order to earn a dividend.
In addition, the Fund pays any capital gains at least annually. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments.
If you purchase Shares just before a Fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution, you will pay the full price for the Shares and then receive a portion of the price back in the form of a taxable distribution, whether or not you reinvest the distribution in Shares. Therefore, you should consider the tax implications of purchasing Shares shortly before the Fund declares a dividend or capital gain. Contact your investment professional or the Fund for information concerning when dividends and capital gains will be paid.
Due to the high cost of maintaining accounts with low balances, accounts may be closed if redemptions cause the account balance to fall below the minimum initial investment amount. Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
The Fund sends an annual statement of your account activity to assist you in completing your federal, state and local tax returns. Fund distributions of dividends and capital gains are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested in the Fund. Dividends are taxable as ordinary income; capital gains are taxable at different rates depending upon the length of time the Fund holds its assets.
Fund distributions are expected to be both dividends and capital gains. Redemptions are taxable sales. Please consult your tax adviser regarding your federal, state, and local tax liability.

In total, the Sub-Manager manages 77 commingled/common trust funds. The Northern Trust Company is a subsidiary of Northern Trust Corporation, a bank holding company and one of the nation's largest trust institutions with subsidiaries located across the United States and in several other countries. As of September 30, 2000, total assets of Northern Trust Corporation were $34.8 billion and subsidiaries of Northern Trust Corporation held trust assets under administration of $1.7 trillion.

Federated was established in 1955 and is one of the largest mutual fund investment managers in the United States with approximately 1,900 employees. More than 4,000 investment professionals make Federated Funds available to their customers.
The Adviser receives an annual investment advisory fee of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee or reimburse the Fund for certain operating expenses.

See Notes which are an integral part of the Financial Statements
Federated Index 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 three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Mini-Cap 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 C Shares. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that generally correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of approximately 2,000 publicly traded common stocks that are ranked in terms of capitalization below the top 1,000 stocks that comprise the large and mid-range capitalization sector of the United States equity market. This group of stocks is known as the Russell 2000® Index.
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.
Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. 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. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.
The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. 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.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for tax equalization accounting. The following reclassifications have been made to the financial statements.
|
Increase (Decrease) |
||
|---|---|---|
| Paid In capital | Accumulated net realized gain on investments and futures contracts |
|
| $5,500,000 | $(5,500,000) | |
Net investment income, net realized gains/losses, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary. Withholding taxes on foreign interest and dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.
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.
The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index 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. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000, the Fund had realized gains on future contracts of $2,047,768. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
At October 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:
| Expiration Date | Contracts to Receive | Position | Unrealized Depreciation |
|||
| December 2000 | 40 Russell 2000 Index Futures | Long | $(752,744) |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value) for each class of shares.

Federated Investment Management Company, the Fund's manager (the "Manager"), receives for its services an annual investment management fee equal to 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Under the terms of a sub-management agreement between the Manager and Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc. (the "Sub-Manager"), the Sub-Manager receives an annual fee from the Manager equal to 0.065% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund may invest in Prime Value Obligations Fund, which is managed by the Manager. The Manager has agreed to reimburse certain investment management fees as a result of these transactions.
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 net assets of the Fund to finance activities intended to result in the sale of the Fund's Class C Shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses up to 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C Shares annually, to compensate FSC.
Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company ("FSSC"), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund 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.
Federated Services Company ("FServ"), through its subsidiary FSSC, serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC is based on the size, type, and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.
FServ maintains the Fund's accounting records for which it receives a fee. The fee is based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses.
Certain of the Officers and Trustees of the Trust are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities (and in-kind contributions), for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2000, were as follows:
| Purchases | $ | 54,098,030 | |
| Sales | $ | 59,184,064 |
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Federated Mini-Cap Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Federated Index Trust) as of October 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from the brokers were not received. 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 the Federated Mini-Cap Fund of the Federated Index Trust at October 31, 2000, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Fund is a diversified portfolio of Federated Index Trust (Trust). The Trust is an open-end, management investment company that was established under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on January 30, 1990. The Trust may offer separate series of shares representing interests in separate portfolios of securities. The Trust changed the name of the Fund from Max-Cap Fund to Federated Max-Cap Fund on December 5, 1994.
The Board of Trustees (the Board) has established three classes of shares of the Fund, known as Institutional Shares, Institutional Service Shares, and Class C Shares (Shares). This SAI relates to all classes of Shares. The Fund's investment manager is Federated Investment Management Company (Manager).

In pursuing its investment strategy, the Fund may invest in the following securities for any purpose that is consistent with its investment objective.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
Preferred stocks have the right to receive specified dividends or distributions before the issuer makes payments on its common stock. Some preferred stocks also participate in dividends and distributions paid on common stock. Preferred stocks may also permit the issuer to redeem the stock. The Fund may treat such redeemable preferred stock as a fixed income security.
Entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability companies, business trusts and companies organized outside the United States may issue securities comparable to common or preferred stock.
REITs are real estate investment trusts that lease, operate and finance commercial real estate. REITs are exempt from federal corporate income tax if they limit their operations and distribute most of their income. Such tax requirements limit a REIT's ability to respond to changes in the commercial real estate market.
Warrants give the Fund the option to buy the issuer's equity securities at a specified price (the exercise price) at a specified future date (the expiration date). The Fund may buy the designated securities by paying the exercise price before the expiration date. Warrants may become worthless if the price of the stock does not rise above the exercise price by the expiration date. This increases the market risks of warrants as compared to the underlying security. Rights are the same as warrants, except companies typically issue rights to existing stockholders.
Fixed income securities pay interest, dividends or distributions at a specified rate. The rate may be a fixed percentage of the principal or adjusted periodically. In addition, the issuer of a fixed income security must repay the principal amount of the security, normally within a specified time. Fixed income securities provide more regular income than equity securities. However, the returns on fixed income securities are limited and normally do not increase with the issuer's earnings. This limits the potential appreciation of fixed income securities as compared to equity securities.
A security's yield measures the annual income earned on a security as a percentage of its price. A security's yield will increase or decrease depending upon whether it costs less (a discount) or more (a premium) than the principal amount. If the issuer may redeem the security before its scheduled maturity, the price and yield on a discount or premium security may change based upon the probability of an early redemption. Securities with higher risks generally have higher yields.
The following describes the types of fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest.
Treasury securities are direct obligations of the federal government of the United States. Treasury securities are generally regarded as having the lowest credit risks.
Agency securities are issued or guaranteed by a federal agency or other government sponsored entity acting under federal authority (a GSE). The United States supports some GSEs with its full faith and credit. Other GSEs receive support through federal subsidies, loans or other benefits. A few GSEs have no explicit financial support, but are regarded as having implied support because the federal government sponsors their activities. Agency securities are generally regarded as having low credit risks, but not as low as treasury securities.
<R>
The Fund treats mortgage backed securities guaranteed by GSEs as agency securities. Although a GSE guarantee protects against credit risks, it does not reduce the market and prepayment risks of these mortgage backed securities.
</R>
Derivative contracts are financial instruments that require payments based upon changes in the values of designated (or underlying) securities, currencies, commodities, financial indices or other assets. Some derivative contracts (such as futures, forwards and options) require payments relating to a future trade involving the underlying asset. Other derivative contracts (such as swaps) require payments relating to the income or returns from the underlying asset. The other party to a derivative contract is referred to as a counterparty.
Many derivative contracts are traded on securities or commodities exchanges. In this case, the exchange sets all the terms of the contract except for the price. Investors make payments due under their contracts through the exchange. Most exchanges require investors to maintain margin accounts through their brokers to cover their potential obligations to the exchange. Parties to the contract make (or collect) daily payments to the margin accounts to reflect losses (or gains) in the value of their contracts. This protects investors against potential defaults by the counterparty. Trading contracts on an exchange also allows investors to close out their contracts by entering into offsetting contracts.
For example, the Fund could close out an open contract to buy an asset at a future date by entering into an offsetting contract to sell the same asset on the same date. If the offsetting sale price is more than the original purchase price, the Fund realizes a gain; if it is less, the Fund realizes a loss. Exchanges may limit the amount of open contracts permitted at any one time. Such limits may prevent the Fund from closing out a position. If this happens, the Fund will be required to keep the contract open (even if it is losing money on the contract), and to make any payments required under the contract (even if it has to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices to do so). Inability to close out a contract could also harm the Fund by preventing it from disposing of or trading any assets it has been using to secure its obligations under the contract.
The Fund may also trade derivative contracts over-the-counter (OTC) in transactions negotiated directly between the Fund and the counterparty. OTC contracts do not necessarily have standard terms, so they cannot be directly offset with other OTC contracts. In addition, OTC contracts with more specialized terms may be more difficult to price than exchange traded contracts. Depending upon how the Fund uses derivative contracts and the relationships between the market value of a derivative contract and the underlying asset, derivative contracts may increase or decrease the Fund's exposure to interest rate and currency risks, and may also expose the Fund to liquidity and leverage risks. OTC contracts also expose the Fund to credit risks in the event that a counterparty defaults on the contract.
The Fund may trade in the following types of derivative contracts in an amount not to exceed 20% of its total net assets.
Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an underlying asset at a specified price, date, and time. Entering into a contract to buy an underlying asset is commonly referred to as buying a contract or holding a long position in the asset. Entering into a contract to sell an underlying asset is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position in the asset. Futures contracts are considered to be commodity contracts. Futures contracts traded OTC are frequently referred to as forward contracts.
The Fund may buy and sell stock index futures as a substitute for direct investments in the Index in order to help fully replicate the performance of the Index.
Options are rights to buy or sell an underlying asset for a specified price (the exercise price) during, or at the end of, a specified period. A call option gives the holder (buyer) the right to buy the underlying asset from the seller (writer) of the option. A put option gives the holder the right to sell the underlying asset to the writer of the option. The writer of the option receives a payment, or premium, from the buyer, which the writer keeps regardless of whether the buyer uses (or exercises) the option.
The Fund may:
When the Fund writes options on futures contracts, it will be subject to margin requirements similar to those applied to futures contracts.
Foreign securities are securities of issuers based outside the United States. The Fund considers an issuer to be based outside the United States if:
Foreign securities are primarily denominated in foreign currencies. Along with the risks normally associated with domestic securities of the same type, foreign securities are subject to currency risks and risks of foreign investing. Trading in certain foreign markets is also subject to liquidity risks.
<R>
Depositary receipts represent interests in underlying securities issued by a foreign company. Depositary receipts are not traded in the same market as the underlying security. The foreign securities underlying American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are not traded in the United States. ADRs provide a way to buy shares of foreign-based companies in the United States rather than in overseas markets. In addition, ADRs are traded in U.S. dollars, eliminating the need for foreign exchange transactions. The foreign securities underlying European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), and International Depositary Receipts (IDRs), are traded globally or outside the United States. Depositary receipts involve many of the same risks of investing directly in foreign securities, including currency risks and risks of foreign investing.
</R>
Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the Fund buys a security from a dealer or bank and agrees to sell the security back at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The repurchase price exceeds the sale price, reflecting the Fund's return on the transaction. This return is unrelated to the interest rate on the underlying security. The Fund will enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as securities dealers, deemed creditworthy by the Manager.
The Fund's custodian or subcustodian will take possession of the securities subject to repurchase agreements. The Manager or subcustodian will monitor the value of the underlying security each day to ensure that the value of the security always equals or exceeds the repurchase price.
Repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks.
Reverse repurchase agreements are repurchase agreements in which the Fund is the seller (rather than the buyer) of the securities, and agrees to repurchase them at an agreed upon time and price. A reverse repurchase agreement may be viewed as a type of borrowing by the Fund. Reverse repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks. In addition, reverse repurchase agreements create leverage risks because the Fund must repurchase the underlying security at a higher price, regardless of the market value of the security at the time of repurchase.
Delayed delivery transactions, including when issued transactions, are arrangements in which the Fund buys securities for a set price, with payment and delivery of the securities scheduled for a future time. During the period between purchase and settlement, no payment is made by the Fund to the issuer and no interest accrues to the Fund. The Fund records the transaction when it agrees to buy the securities and reflects their value in determining the price of its shares. Settlement dates may be a month or more after entering into these transactions so that the market values of the securities bought may vary from the purchase prices. Therefore, delayed delivery transactions create interest rate risks for the Fund. Delayed delivery transactions also involve credit risks in the event of a counterparty default.
The Fund may lend portfolio securities to borrowers that the Manager deems creditworthy. In return, the Fund receives cash or liquid securities from the borrower as collateral. The borrower must furnish additional collateral if the market value of the loaned securities increases. Also, the borrower must pay the Fund the equivalent of any dividends or interest received on the loaned securities.
The Fund will reinvest cash collateral in securities that qualify as an acceptable investment for the Fund. However, the Fund must pay interest to the borrower for the use of cash collateral.
Loans are subject to termination at the option of the Fund or the borrower. The Fund will not have the right to vote on securities while they are on loan, but it will terminate a loan in anticipation of any important vote. The Fund may pay administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan and may pay a negotiated portion of the interest earned on the cash collateral to a securities lending agent or broker.
Securities lending activities are subject to interest rate risks and credit risks.
In order to secure its obligations in connection with derivatives contracts or special transactions, the Fund will either own the underlying assets, enter into an offsetting transaction or set aside readily marketable securities with a value that equals or exceeds the Fund's obligations. Unless the Fund has other readily marketable assets to set aside, it cannot trade assets used to secure such obligations without entering into an offsetting derivative contract or terminating a special transaction. This may cause the Fund to miss favorable trading opportunities or to realize losses on derivative contracts or special transactions.
<R>
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has granted an exemption that permits the Fund and all other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc. ("Federated funds") to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other Federated funds. Participation in this inter-fund lending program is voluntary for both borrowing and lending funds, and an inter-fund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. Federated administers the program according to procedures approved by the Fund's Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. Any inter-fund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemption, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds.
</R>
For example, inter-fund lending is permitted only (a) to meet shareholder redemption requests, and (b) to meet commitments arising from "failed" trades. All inter-fund loans must be repaid in seven days or less. The Fund's participation in this program must be consistent with its investment policies and limitations, and must meet certain percentage tests. Inter-fund loans may be made only when the rate of interest to be charged is more attractive to the lending fund than market-competitive rates on overnight repurchase agreements (the "Repo Rate") and more attractive to the borrowing fund than the rate of interest that would be charged by an unaffiliated bank for short-term borrowings (the "Bank Loan Rate"), as determined by the Board. The interest rate imposed on inter-fund loans is the average of the Repo Rate and the Bank Loan Rate.

<R>
There are many factors which may affect an investment in the Fund. The Fund's principal risks are described in its prospectus. Additional risk factors are outlined below.
</R>
<R>
</R>
<R>
The fund seeks to provide investment results generally corresponding to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly traded common stocks comprising the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.
With respect to securities comprising 75% of the value of its total assets, the Fund will not purchase securities of any one issuer (other than cash; cash items; securities issued or guaranteed by the government of the United States or its agencies or instrumentalities and repurchase agreements collateralized by such U.S. government securities; and securities of other investment companies) if, as a result, more than 5% of the value of its total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer, or the Fund would own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer.
The Fund may borrow money, directly or indirectly, and issue senior securities to the maximum extent permitted under the 1940 Act.
The Fund will not make investments that will result in the concentration of its investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in the same industry. Government securities, municipal securities and bank instruments are not deemed to constitute an industry.
The Fund may not make loans, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from purchasing debt obligations, entering into repurchase agreements, lending its assets to broker/dealers or institutional investors and investing in loans, including assignments and participation interests.
The Fund may not underwrite the securities of other issuers, except that the Fund may engage in transactions involving the acquisition, disposition or resale of its portfolio securities, under circumstances where it may be considered to be an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933.
The Fund may not purchase or sell real estate, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from investing in issuers which invest, deal, or otherwise engage in transactions in real estate or interests therein, or investing in securities that are secured by real estate or interests therein. The Fund may exercise its rights under agreements relating to such securities, including the right to enforce security interests and to hold real estate acquired by reason of such enforcement until that real estate can be liquidated in an orderly manner.
The Fund may not purchase or sell physical commodities, provided that the Fund may purchase securities of companies that deal in commodities.
<R>
The above limitations cannot be changed unless authorized by the Board and by the "vote of a majority of its outstanding voting securities," as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act). The following limitations, however, may be changed by the Board without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be notified before any material change in these limitations becomes effective.
</R>
The Fund will not mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any of its assets, provided that this shall not apply to the transfer of securities in connection with any permissible borrowing or to collateral arrangements in connection with permissible activities.
<R>
To conform to the current view of the SEC staff that only domestic bank instruments may be excluded from industry concentration limitations, as a matter of non-fundamental policy, the Fund will not exclude foreign bank instruments from industry concentration limitation tests so long as the policy of the SEC remains in effect. In addition, investments in bank instruments, and investments in certain industrial development bonds funded by activities in a single industry, will be deemed to constitute investment in an industry, except when held for temporary defensive purposes. The investment of more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets in any one industry will constitute "concentration."
As a matter of non-fundamental policy, (a) utility companies will be divided according to their services, for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and telephone will each be considered a separate industry; (b) financial service companies will be classified according to the end users of their services, for example, automobile finance, bank finance and diversified finance will each be considered a separate industry; and (c) asset-backed securities will be classified according to the underlying assets securing such securities.
</R>
<R>
The Fund may invest in restricted securities. Restricted securities are any securities in which the Fund may invest pursuant to its investment objective and policies but which are subject to restrictions on resale under federal securities law. Under criteria established by the Trustees certain restricted securities are determined to be liquid. To the extent that restricted securities are not determined to be liquid, the Fund will limit their purchase, together with other illiquid securities to 15% of its net assets.
</R>
The Fund will not purchase securities for which there is no readily available market, or enter into repurchase agreements or purchase time deposits maturing in more than seven days, if immediately after and as a result, the value of such securities would exceed, in the aggregate, 15% of the Fund's net assets.
The Fund will not purchase securities on margin provided that the Fund may obtain short-term credits necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities, and further provided that the Fund may make margin deposits in connection with its use of financial options and futures, forward and spot currency contracts, swap transactions and other financial contracts or derivative instruments.
The Fund may invest its assets in securities of other investment companies, including securities of affiliated investment companies, as an efficient means of carrying out its investment policies and managing its uninvested cash.
Except with respect to borrowing money, if a percentage limitation is adhered to at the time of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from any change in value or net assets will not result in a violation of such limitation.
For purposes of its policies and limitations, the Fund considers certificates of deposit and demand and time deposits issued by a U.S. branch of a domestic bank or savings association, having capital, surplus, and undivided profits in excess of $100,000,000 at the time of deposit, to be "cash items."
Market values of the Fund's portfolio securities are determined as follows:
<R>
</R>
Prices provided by independent pricing services may be determined without relying exclusively on quoted prices and may consider institutional trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, stability, risk, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data or factors. From time to time, when prices cannot be obtained from an independent pricing service, securities may be valued based on quotes from broker-dealers or other financial institutions that trade the securities.
Trading in foreign securities may be completed at times which vary from the closing of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). In computing its NAV, the Fund values foreign securities at the latest closing price on the exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the closing of the NYSE. Certain foreign currency exchange rates may also be determined at the latest rate prior to the closing of the NYSE. Foreign securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at current rates. Occasionally, events that affect these values and exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and the closing of the NYSE. If such events materially affect the value of portfolio securities, these securities may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund's Board, although the actual calculation may be done by others.
The Fund's net asset value (NAV) per Share fluctuates and is based on the market value of all securities and other assets of the Fund. The NAV for each class of Shares may differ due to the variance in daily net income realized by each class. Such variance will reflect only accrued net income to which the shareholders of a particular class are entitled.
These reductions or eliminations are offered because: no sales commissions have been advanced to the investment professional selling Shares; the shareholder has already paid a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC); or nominal sales efforts are associated with the original purchase of Shares.
Upon notification to the Distributor or the Fund's transfer agent, no CDSC will be imposed on redemptions:
<R>
</R>
Under the Distributor's Contract with the Fund, the Distributor (Federated Securities Corp.) offers Shares on a continuous, best-efforts basis.
<R>
As a compensation-type plan, the Rule 12b-1 Plan is designed to pay the Distributor (who may then pay investment professionals such as banks, broker/dealers, trust departments of banks, and registered investment advisers) for marketing activities (such as advertising, printing and distributing prospectuses, and providing incentives to investment professionals) to promote sales of Shares so that overall Fund assets are maintained or increased. This helps the Fund achieve economies of scale, reduce per share expenses, and provide cash for orderly portfolio management and Share redemptions. In addition, the Fund's service providers that receive asset-based fees also benefit from stable or increasing Fund assets.
The Fund may compensate the Distributor more or less than its actual marketing expenses. In no event will the Fund pay for any expenses of the Distributor that exceed the maximum Rule 12b-1 Plan fee.
</R>
The Fund may pay Federated Shareholder Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated), for providing shareholder services and maintaining shareholder accounts. Federated Shareholder Services Company may select others to perform these services for their customers and may pay them fees.
<R>
Investment professionals (such as broker-dealers or banks) may be paid fees, in significant amounts, out of the assets of the Distributor and/or Federated Shareholder Services Company (these fees do not come out of Fund assets). The Distributor and/or Federated Shareholder Services Company may be reimbursed by the Manager or its affiliates.
Investment professionals receive such fees for providing distribution-related and/or shareholder services, such as advertising, providing incentives to their sales personnel, sponsoring other activities intended to promote sales, and maintaining shareholder accounts. These payments may be based upon such factors as the number or value of Shares the investment professional sells or may sell; the value of client assets invested; and/or the type and nature of sales or marketing support furnished by the investment professional.
When an investment professional's customer purchases shares, the investment professional may receive:
</R>
You may contact the Distributor to request a purchase of Shares in exchange for securities you own. The Fund reserves the right to determine whether to accept your securities and the minimum market value to accept. The Fund will value your securities in the same manner as it values its assets. This exchange is treated as a sale of your securities for federal tax purposes.
Certain investment professionals may wish to use the transfer agent's subaccounting system to minimize their internal recordkeeping requirements. The transfer agent may charge a fee based on the level of subaccounting services rendered. Investment professionals holding Shares in a fiduciary, agency, custodial or similar capacity may charge or pass through subaccounting fees as part of or in addition to normal trust or agency account fees. They may also charge fees for other services that may be related to the ownership of Shares. This information should, therefore, be read together with any agreement between the customer and the investment professional about the services provided, the fees charged for those services, and any restrictions and limitations imposed.
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right, as described below, to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
<R>
Because the Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund is obligated to pay Share redemptions to any one shareholder in cash only up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets represented by such Share class during any 90-day period.
</R>
Any Share redemption payment greater than this amount will also be in cash unless the Fund's Board determines that payment should be in kind. In such a case, the Fund will pay all or a portion of the remainder of the redemption in portfolio securities, valued in the same way as the Fund determines its NAV. The portfolio securities will be selected in a manner that the Fund's Board deems fair and equitable and, to the extent available, such securities will be readily marketable.
Redemption in kind is not as liquid as a cash redemption. If redemption is made in kind, shareholders receiving the portfolio securities and selling them before their maturity could receive less than the redemption value of the securities and could incur certain transaction costs.
Under certain circumstances, shareholders may be held personally liable as partners under Massachusetts law for obligations of the Trust. To protect its shareholders, the Trust has filed legal documents with Massachusetts that expressly disclaim the liability of its shareholders for acts or obligations of the Trust. In the unlikely event a shareholder is held personally liable for the Trust's obligations, the Trust is required by the Declaration of Trust to use its property to protect or compensate the shareholder. On request, the Trust will defend any claim made and pay any judgment against a shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust. Therefore, financial loss resulting from liability as a shareholder will occur only if the Trust itself cannot meet its obligations to indemnify shareholders and pay judgments against them.
Each share of the Fund gives the shareholder one vote in Trustee elections and other matters submitted to shareholders for vote.
All Shares of the Fund have equal voting rights, except that in matters affecting only a particular class, only Shares of that class are entitled to vote.
Trustees may be removed by the Board or by shareholders at a special meeting. A special meeting of shareholders will be called by the Board upon the written request of shareholders who own at least 10% of the Trust's outstanding shares of all series entitled to vote.
<R>
As of December 7, 2000, the following shareholders owned of record, beneficially, or both, 5% or more of outstanding Class C Shares: Edward Jones & Co. Attn: Mutual Fund Shareholder Accounting, 201 Progress Parkway, Maryland Heights, MO 63043-3009, owned approximately 671,531 Shares, 13.45%; and MLPF&S for the Sole Benefit of its Customers, Attn: Fund Admin. Sec. #97TD7, 4800 Deer Lake Drive East 2nd Floor, Jacksonville, FL 32246-6484, owned approximately 768,689 Shares, 15.40%.
As of December 7, 2000, the following shareholders owned of record, beneficially, or both, 5% or more of outstanding Institutional Shares: Lauer & Co., Glenmede Trust Company, Attn: Kim Osborne, 1650 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103-7311, owned approximately 4,502,648 Shares, 6.57%; Charles Schwab & Co. Inc., Attn: Mutual Funds Dept., 101 Montgomery Street, San Francisco, CA 94104-4122, owned approximately 4,524,065 Shares, 6.60%; and Mitra & Co., Marshall & Ilsley Trust Oper., PO Box 2977, Milwaukee, WI 53201-2977, owned approximately 8,328,975 Shares, 12.15%.
As of December 7, 2000, the following shareholders owned of record, beneficially, or both, 5% or more of outstanding Institutional Service Shares: IMS & Co., for the Exclusive Benefit of Customers, PO Box 3865, Englewood, CO 80155-3865, owned approximately 6,613,019 Shares, 21.27%.
</R>
The Fund intends to meet requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. If these requirements are not met, it will not receive special tax treatment and will pay federal income tax.
The Fund will be treated as a single, separate entity for federal income tax purposes so that income earned and capital gains and losses realized by the Trust's other portfolios will be separate from those realized by the Fund.
If the Fund purchases foreign securities, their investment income may be subject to foreign withholding or other taxes that could reduce the return on these securities. Tax treaties between the United States and foreign countries, however, may reduce or eliminate the amount of foreign taxes to which the Fund would be subject. The effective rate of foreign tax cannot be predicted since the amount of Fund assets to be invested within various countries is uncertain. However, the Fund intends to operate so as to qualify for treaty-reduced tax rates when applicable.
Distributions from a Fund may be based on estimates of book income for the year. Book income generally consists solely of the coupon income generated by the portfolio, whereas tax-basis income includes gains or losses attributable to currency fluctuation. Due to differences in the book and tax treatment of fixed-income securities denominated in foreign currencies, it is difficult to project currency effects on an interim basis. Therefore, to the extent that currency fluctuations cannot be anticipated, a portion of distributions to shareholders could later be designated as a return of capital, rather than income, for income tax purposes, which may be of particular concern to simple trusts.
If the Fund invests in the stock of certain foreign corporations, they may constitute Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC), and the Fund may be subject to Federal income taxes upon disposition of PFIC investments.
If more than 50% of the value of the Fund's assets at the end of the tax year is represented by stock or securities of foreign corporations, the Fund intends to qualify for certain Code stipulations that would allow shareholders to claim a foreign tax credit or deduction on their U.S. income tax returns. The Code may limit a shareholder's ability to claim a foreign tax credit. Shareholders who elect to deduct their portion of the Fund's foreign taxes rather than take the foreign tax credit must itemize deductions on their income tax returns.
<R>

The Manager oversees the Sub-Manager, Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc., a subsidiary of Northern Trust Corporation, which conducts investment research and makes investment decisions for the Fund. The directors of the Sub-Manager are James M. Snyder, Perry R. Pero, Sheila A. Penrose, John R. Goodwin, Stephen N. Potter, and Jeffrey H. Wessel. The executive officers of the Sub-Manager are James M. Snyder, Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey H. Wessel, President and Orie L. Dudley, Jr., Chief Investment Officer.
</R>
Subject to the supervision and direction of the Trustees, the Manager provides to the Fund investment management evaluation services principally by performing initial due diligence on the Sub-Manager for the Fund and thereafter monitoring and evaluating the performance of the Sub-Manager through quantitative and qualitative analyses. In addition, the Manager conducts periodic in-person, telephonic and written consultations with the Sub-Manager. In initially evaluating the Sub-Manager, the Manager considered, among other factors, the Sub-Manager's level of expertise; relative performance over a minimum period of five years; level of efficiency; level of adherence to investment discipline or philosophy; personnel, facilities and financial strength; and quality of service and client communications. On an ongoing basis, the Manager is responsible for communicating performance expectations and evaluations to the Sub-Manager; monitoring tracking errors; monitoring and analyzing the use of futures contracts; monitoring the futures holdings of the Fund as a percentage of Fund assets; monitoring market timing in the Fund; discussing with the Sub-Manager the portfolio sampling techniques employed by the Sub-Manager; defining with the Sub-Manager the universe of stocks that comprise the large capitalization sector of the United States equity market; and ultimately recommending to the Trustees whether the Sub-Management Contract should be renewed, modified or terminated. The Manager provides written reports to the Trustees regarding the results of its evaluation and monitoring functions. In addition, the Manager is responsible for providing the Fund with administrative services, including, but not limited to, shareholder servicing and certain legal and accounting services. The Manager is also responsible for conducting all operations of the Fund, except those operations contracted to the Sub-Manager, custodian, transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent. The Manager receives an annual fee from the Fund for performing its responsibilities under the Management Contract.
The Manager and the Sub-Manager shall not be liable to the Trust, the Fund, or any Fund shareholder for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding, or sale of any security or for anything done or omitted by it, except acts or omissions involving willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties imposed upon it by its contract with the Trust.
Affiliates of the Manager may, from time to time, provide certain electronic equipment and software to institutional customers in order to facilitate the purchase of Fund Shares offered by the Distributor.
<R>
As required by SEC rules, the Fund, its Manager, and its Distributor have adopted codes of ethics. These codes govern securities trading activities of investment personnel, Fund Trustees, and certain other employees. Although they do permit these people to trade in securities, including those that the Fund could buy, they also contain significant safeguards designed to protect the Fund and its shareholders from abuses in this area, such as requirements to obtain prior approval for, and to report, particular transactions.
</R>
When selecting brokers and dealers to handle the purchase and sale of portfolio instruments, the Manager looks for prompt execution of the order at a favorable price. The Manager will generally use those who are recognized dealers in specific portfolio instruments, except when a better price and execution of the order can be obtained elsewhere. The Manager may select brokers and dealers based on whether they also offer research services (as described below). In selecting among firms believed to meet these criteria, the Manager may give consideration to those firms which have sold or are selling Shares of the Fund and other funds distributed by the Distributor and its affiliates. The Manager makes decisions on portfolio transactions and selects brokers and dealers subject to review by the Fund's Board.
Research services may include advice as to the advisability of investing in securities; security analysis and reports; economic studies; industry studies; receipt of quotations for portfolio evaluations; and similar services. Research services may be used by the Manager or by affiliates of Federated in advising other accounts. To the extent that receipt of these services may replace services for which the Manager or its affiliates might otherwise have paid, it would tend to reduce their expenses. The Manager and its affiliates exercise reasonable business judgment in selecting those brokers who offer brokerage and research services to execute securities transactions. They determine in good faith that commissions charged by such persons are reasonable in relationship to the value of the brokerage and research services provided.
Investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those of other accounts managed by the Manager. When the Fund and one or more of those accounts invests in, or disposes of, the same security, available investments or opportunities for sales will be allocated among the Fund and the account(s) in a manner believed by the Manager to be equitable. While the coordination and ability to participate in volume transactions may benefit the Fund, it is possible that this procedure could adversely impact the price paid or received and/or the position obtained or disposed of by the Fund.
Federated Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated, provides administrative personnel and services (including certain legal and financial reporting services) necessary to operate the Fund. Federated Services Company provides these at the following annual rate of 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 of 1% | on the first $250 million | |
| 0.125 of 1% | on the next $250 million | |
| 0.100 of 1% | on the next $250 million | |
| 0.075 of 1% | on assets in excess of $750 million |
The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $125,000 per portfolio and $30,000 per each additional class of Shares. Federated Services Company may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee and may reimburse the Fund for expenses .
Federated Services Company also provides certain accounting and recordkeeping services with respect to the Fund's portfolio investments for a fee based on Fund assets plus out-of-pocket expenses.
State Street Bank and Trust Company, Boston, Massachusetts, is custodian for the securities and cash of the Fund. Foreign instruments purchased by the Fund are held by foreign banks participating in a network coordinated by State Street Bank.
Federated Services Company, through its registered transfer agent subsidiary, Federated Shareholder Services Company, maintains all necessary shareholder records. The Fund pays the transfer agent a fee based on the size, type and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.

Fees are allocated among classes based on their pro rata share of Fund assets, except for marketing (Rule 12b-1) fees and shareholder services fees, which are borne only by the applicable class of Shares.
If the Fund's expenses are capped at a particular level, the cap does not include reimbursement to the Fund of any expenses incurred by shareholders who use the transfer agent's subaccounting facilities.
The Fund may advertise Share performance by using the SEC's standard method for calculating performance applicable to all mutual funds. The SEC also permits this standard performance information to be accompanied by non-standard performance information.
The performance of Shares depends upon such variables as: portfolio quality; average portfolio maturity; type and value of portfolio securities; changes in interest rates; changes or differences in the Fund's or any class of Shares' expenses; and various other factors.
Share performance fluctuates on a daily basis largely because net earnings fluctuate daily. Both net earnings and offering price per Share are factors in the computation of yield and total return.

Total returns are given for the one-year, five-year and Start of Performance periods ended October 31, 2000.

</R>
Total return represents the change (expressed as a percentage) in the value of Shares over a specific period of time, and includes the investment of income and capital gains distributions.
The average annual total return for Shares is the average compounded rate of return for a given period that would equate a $1,000 initial investment to the ending redeemable value of that investment. The ending redeemable value is computed by multiplying the number of Shares owned at the end of the period by the NAV per Share at the end of the period. The number of Shares owned at the end of the period is based on the number of Shares purchased at the beginning of the period with $1,000, less any applicable sales charge, adjusted over the period by any additional Shares, assuming the annual reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.
The yield of Shares is calculated by dividing: (i) the net investment income per Share earned by the Shares over a 30-day period; by (ii) the maximum offering price per Share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized using semi-annual compounding. This means that the amount of income generated during the 30-day period is assumed to be generated each month over a 12-month period and is reinvested every six months. The yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned by Shares because of certain adjustments required by the SEC and, therefore, may not correlate to the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders.
To the extent investment professionals and broker/dealers charge fees in connection with services provided in conjunction with an investment in Shares, the Share performance is lower for shareholders paying those fees.
Advertising and sales literature may include:
The Fund may compare its performance, or performance for the types of securities in which it invests, to a variety of other investments, including federally insured bank products such as bank savings accounts, certificates of deposit, and Treasury bills.
The Fund may quote information from reliable sources regarding individual countries and regions, world stock exchanges, and economic and demographic statistics.
You may use financial publications and/or indices to obtain a more complete view of Share performance. When comparing performance, you should consider all relevant factors such as the composition of the index used, prevailing market conditions, portfolio compositions of other funds, and methods used to value portfolio securities and compute offering price. The financial publications and/or indices which the Fund uses in advertising may include:
Represents share prices of selected blue-chip industrial corporations. The DJIA indicates daily changes in the average price of stock of these corporations. Because it represents the top corporations of America, the DJIA index is a leading economic indicator for the stock market as a whole.
Ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total return. Total return assumes the reinvestment of all capital gains distributions and income dividends and takes into account any change in net asset value over a specified period of time.

Taxes due on any of these distributions are not included, nor are brokerage or other fees calculated in the S&P figures.

The Fund is a diversified portfolio of Federated Index Trust (Trust). The Trust is an open-end, management investment company that was established under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on January 30, 1990. The Trust may offer separate series of shares representing interests in separate portfolios of securities. The Trust changed the name of the Fund from Mid-Cap Fund to Federated Mid-Cap Fund on December 5, 1994. The Fund's investment adviser is Federated Investment Management Company (Manager).
</R>
In pursuing its investment strategy, the Fund may invest in the following securities for any purpose that is consistent with its investment objective.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
Preferred stocks have the right to receive specified dividends or distributions before the issuer makes payments on its common stock. Some preferred stocks also participate in dividends and distributions paid on common stock. Preferred stocks may also permit the issuer to redeem the stock. The Fund may treat such redeemable preferred stock as a fixed income security.
Entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability companies, business trusts and companies organized outside the United States may issue securities comparable to common or preferred stock.
REITs are real estate investment trusts that lease, operate and finance commercial real estate. REITs are exempt from federal corporate income tax if they limit their operations and distribute most of their income. Such tax requirements limit a REIT's ability to respond to changes in the commercial real estate market.
Warrants give the Fund the option to buy the issuer's equity securities at a specified price (the exercise price) at a specified future date (the expiration date). The Fund may buy the designated securities by paying the exercise price before the expiration date. Warrants may become worthless if the price of the stock does not rise above the exercise price by the expiration date. This increases the market risks of warrants as compared to the underlying security. Rights are the same as warrants, except companies typically issue rights to existing stockholders.
Fixed income securities pay interest, dividends or distributions at a specified rate. The rate may be a fixed percentage of the principal or adjusted periodically. In addition, the issuer of a fixed income security must repay the principal amount of the security, normally within a specified time. Fixed income securities provide more regular income than equity securities. However, the returns on fixed income securities are limited and normally do not increase with the issuer's earnings. This limits the potential appreciation of fixed income securities as compared to equity securities.
A security's yield measures the annual income earned on a security as a percentage of its price. A security's yield will increase or decrease depending upon whether it costs less (a discount) or more (a premium) than the principal amount. If the issuer may redeem the security before its scheduled maturity, the price and yield on a discount or premium security may change based upon the probability of an early redemption. Securities with higher risks generally have higher yields.
The following describes the types of fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest.
Treasury securities are direct obligations of the federal government of the United States. Treasury securities are generally regarded as having the lowest credit risks.
Agency securities are issued or guaranteed by a federal agency or other government sponsored entity acting under federal authority (a GSE). The United States supports some GSEs with its full faith and credit. Other GSEs receive support through federal subsidies, loans or other benefits. A few GSEs have no explicit financial support, but are regarded as having implied support because the federal government sponsors their activities. Agency securities are generally regarded as having low credit risks, but not as low as treasury securities.
The Fund treats mortgage backed securities guaranteed by GSEs as agency securities. Although a GSE guarantee protects against credit risks, it does not reduce the interest rate and prepayment risks of these mortgage backed securities.
Derivative contracts are financial instruments that require payments based upon changes in the values of designated (or underlying) securities, currencies, commodities, financial indices or other assets. Some derivative contracts (such as futures, forwards and options) require payments relating to a future trade involving the underlying asset. Other derivative contracts (such as swaps) require payments relating to the income or returns from the underlying asset. The other party to a derivative contract is referred to as a counterparty.
Many derivative contracts are traded on securities or commodities exchanges. In this case, the exchange sets all the terms of the contract except for the price. Investors make payments due under their contracts through the exchange. Most exchanges require investors to maintain margin accounts through their brokers to cover their potential obligations to the exchange. Parties to the contract make (or collect) daily payments to the margin accounts to reflect losses (or gains) in the value of their contracts. This protects investors against potential defaults by the counterparty. Trading contracts on an exchange also allows investors to close out their contracts by entering into offsetting contracts.
For example, the Fund could close out an open contract to buy an asset at a future date by entering into an offsetting contract to sell the same asset on the same date. If the offsetting sale price is more than the original purchase price, the Fund realizes a gain; if it is less, the Fund realizes a loss. Exchanges may limit the amount of open contracts permitted at any one time. Such limits may prevent the Fund from closing out a position. If this happens, the Fund will be required to keep the contract open (even if it is losing money on the contract), and to make any payments required under the contract (even if it has to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices to do so). Inability to close out a contract could also harm the Fund by preventing it from disposing of or trading any assets it has been using to secure its obligations under the contract.
The Fund may also trade derivative contracts over-the-counter (OTC) in transactions negotiated directly between the Fund and the counterparty. OTC contracts do not necessarily have standard terms, so they cannot be directly offset with other OTC contracts. In addition, OTC contracts with more specialized terms may be more difficult to price than exchange traded contracts.
Depending upon how the Fund uses derivative contracts and the relationships between the market value of a derivative contract and the underlying asset, derivative contracts may increase or decrease the Fund's exposure to interest rate and currency risks, and may also expose the Fund to liquidity and leverage risks. OTC contracts also expose the Fund to credit risks in the event that a counterparty defaults on the contract.
The Fund may trade in the following types of derivative contracts in an amount not to exceed 20% of its total net assets.
Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an underlying asset at a specified price, date, and time. Entering into a contract to buy an underlying asset is commonly referred to as buying a contract or holding a long position in the asset. Entering into a contract to sell an underlying asset is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position in the asset. Futures contracts are considered to be commodity contracts. Futures contracts traded OTC are frequently referred to as forward contracts. The Fund may buy and sell stock index futures as a substitute for direct investments in the Index in order to help fully replicate the performance of the Index.
Options are rights to buy or sell an underlying asset for a specified price (the exercise price) during, or at the end of, a specified period. A call option gives the holder (buyer) the right to buy the underlying asset from the seller (writer) of the option. A put option gives the holder the right to sell the underlying asset to the writer of the option. The writer of the option receives a payment, or premium, from the buyer, which the writer keeps regardless of whether the buyer uses (or exercises) the option.
The Fund may:
If a call written by a Fund is exercised, the Fund foregoes any possible profit from an increase in the market price of the underlying asset over the exercise price plus the premium received.
When the Fund writes options on futures contracts, it will be subject to margin requirements similar to those applied to futures contracts.
Foreign securities are securities of issuers based outside the United States. The Fund considers an issuer to be based outside the United States if:
Foreign securities are primarily denominated in foreign currencies. Along with the risks normally associated with domestic securities of the same type, foreign securities are subject to currency risks and risks of foreign investing. Trading in certain foreign markets is also subject to liquidity risks.
<R>
Depositary receipts represent interests in underlying securities issued by a foreign company. Depositary receipts are not traded in the same market as the underlying security. The foreign securities underlying American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are not traded in the United States. ADRs provide a way to buy shares of foreign-based companies in the United States rather than in overseas markets. In addition, ADRs are traded in U.S. dollars, eliminating the need for foreign exchange transactions. The foreign securities underlying European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), and International Depositary Receipts (IDRs), are traded globally or outside the United States. Depositary receipts involve many of the same risks of investing directly in foreign securities, including currency risks and risks of foreign investing.
</R>
Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the Fund buys a security from a dealer or bank and agrees to sell the security back at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The repurchase price exceeds the sale price, reflecting the Fund's return on the transaction. This return is unrelated to the interest rate on the underlying security. The Fund will enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as securities dealers, deemed creditworthy by the Manager.
The Fund's custodian or subcustodian will take possession of the securities subject to repurchase agreements. The Manager or subcustodian will monitor the value of the underlying security each day to ensure that the value of the security always equals or exceeds the repurchase price.
Repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks.
Reverse repurchase agreements are repurchase agreements in which the Fund is the seller (rather than the buyer) of the securities, and agrees to repurchase them at an agreed upon time and price. A reverse repurchase agreement may be viewed as a type of borrowing by the Fund. Reverse repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks. In addition, reverse repurchase agreements create leverage risks because the Fund must repurchase the underlying security at a higher price, regardless of the market value of the security at the time of repurchase.
Delayed delivery transactions, including when issued transactions, are arrangements in which the Fund buys securities for a set price, with payment and delivery of the securities scheduled for a future time. During the period between purchase and settlement, no payment is made by the Fund to the issuer and no interest accrues to the Fund. The Fund records the transaction when it agrees to buy the securities and reflects their value in determining the price of its shares. Settlement dates may be a month or more after entering into these transactions so that the market values of the securities bought may vary from the purchase prices. Therefore, delayed delivery transactions create interest rate risks for the Fund. Delayed delivery transactions also involve credit risks in the event of a counterparty default.
The Fund may lend portfolio securities to borrowers that the Manager deems creditworthy. In return, the Fund receives cash or liquid securities from the borrower as collateral. The borrower must furnish additional collateral if the market value of the loaned securities increases. Also, the borrower must pay the Fund the equivalent of any dividends or interest received on the loaned securities.
The Fund will reinvest cash collateral in securities that qualify as an acceptable investment for the Fund. However, the Fund must pay interest to the borrower for the use of cash collateral.
Loans are subject to termination at the option of the Fund or the borrower. The Fund will not have the right to vote on securities while they are on loan, but it will terminate a loan in anticipation of any important vote. The Fund may pay administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan and may pay a negotiated portion of the interest earned on the cash collateral to a securities lending agent or broker.
Securities lending activities are subject to interest rate risks and credit risks.
In order to secure its obligations in connection with derivatives contracts or special transactions, the Fund will either own the underlying assets, enter into an offsetting transaction or set aside readily marketable securities with a value that equals or exceeds the Fund's obligations. Unless the Fund has other readily marketable assets to set aside, it cannot trade assets used to secure such obligations without entering into an offsetting derivative contract or terminating a special transaction. This may cause the Fund to miss favorable trading opportunities or to realize losses on derivative contracts or special transactions.
<R>
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has granted an exemption that permits the Fund and all other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc. ("Federated funds") to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other Federated funds. Participation in this inter-fund lending program is voluntary for both borrowing and lending funds, and an inter-fund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. Federated administers the program according to procedures approved by the Fund's Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. Any inter-fund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemption, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds.
</R>
For example, inter-fund lending is permitted only (a) to meet shareholder redemption requests, and (b) to meet commitments arising from "failed" trades. All inter-fund loans must be repaid in seven days or less. The Fund's participation in this program must be consistent with its investment policies and limitations, and must meet certain percentage tests. Inter-fund loans may be made only when the rate of interest to be charged is more attractive to the lending fund than market-competitive rates on overnight repurchase agreements (the "Repo Rate") and more attractive to the borrowing fund than the rate of interest that would be charged by an unaffiliated bank for short-term borrowings (the "Bank Loan Rate"), as determined by the Board. The interest rate imposed on inter-fund loans is the average of the Repo Rate and the Bank Loan Rate.

<R>
There are many factors which may affect an investment in the Fund. The Fund's principal risks are described in its prospectus. Additional risk factors are outlined below.
</R>
<R>
</R>
<R>
The fund seeks to provide investment results generally corresponding to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly traded common stocks comprising the Standard & Poor's MidCap 400 Index.
</R>
With respect to securities comprising 75% of the value of its total assets, the Fund will not purchase securities of any one issuer (other than cash; cash items; securities issued or guaranteed by the government of the United States or its agencies or instrumentalities and repurchase agreements collateralized by such U.S. government securities; and securities of other investment companies) if, as a result, more than 5% of the value of its total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer, or the Fund would own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer.
The Fund may borrow money, directly or indirectly, and issue senior securities to the maximum extent permitted under the 1940 Act.
The Fund will not make investments that will result in the concentration of its investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in the same industry. Government securities, municipal securities and bank instruments are not deemed to constitute an industry.
The Fund may not make loans, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from purchasing debt obligations, entering into repurchase agreements, lending its assets to broker/dealers or institutional investors and investing in loans, including assignments and participation interests.
The Fund may not underwrite the securities of other issuers, except that the Fund may engage in transactions involving the acquisition, disposition or resale of its portfolio securities, under circumstances where it may be considered to be an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933.
The Fund may not purchase or sell real estate, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from investing in issuers which invest, deal, or otherwise engage in transactions in real estate or interests therein, or investing in securities that are secured by real estate or interests therein. The Fund may exercise its rights under agreements relating to such securities, including the right to enforce security interests and to hold real estate acquired by reason of such enforcement until that real estate can be liquidated in an orderly manner.
The Fund may not purchase or sell physical commodities, provided that the Fund may purchase securities of companies that deal in commodities.
<R>
The above limitations cannot be changed unless authorized by the Board and by the "vote of a majority of its outstanding voting securities," as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act). The following limitations, however, may be changed by the Board without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be notified before any material change in these limitations becomes effective.
</R>
The Fund will not mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any of its assets, provided that this shall not apply to the transfer of securities in connection with any permissible borrowing or to collateral arrangements in connection with permissible activities.
<R>
To conform to the current view of the SEC staff that only domestic bank instruments may be excluded from industry concentration limitations, as a matter of non-fundamental policy, the Fund will not exclude foreign bank instruments from industry concentration limitation tests so long as the policy of the SEC remains in effect. In addition, investments in bank instruments, and investments in certain industrial development bonds funded by activities in a single industry, will be deemed to constitute investment in an industry, except when held for temporary defensive purposes. The investment of more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets in any one industry will constitute "concentration."
As a matter of non-fundamental policy, (a) utility companies will be divided according to their services, for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and telephone will each be considered a separate industry; (b) financial service companies will be classified according to the end users of their services, for example, automobile finance, bank finance and diversified finance will each be considered a separate industry; and (c) asset-backed securities will be classified according to the underlying assets securing such securities.
</R>
The Fund may invest in restricted securities. Restricted securities are any securities in which the Fund may invest pursuant to its investment objective and policies but which are subject to restrictions on resale under federal securities law. Under criteria established by the Trustees certain restricted securities are determined to be liquid. To the extent that restricted securities are not determined to be liquid, the Fund will limit their purchase, together with other illiquid securities to 15% of its net assets.
The Fund will not purchase securities for which there is no readily available market, or enter into repurchase agreements or purchase time deposits maturing in more than seven days, if immediately after and as a result, the value of such securities would exceed, in the aggregate, 15% of the Fund's net assets.
The Fund will not purchase securities on margin provided that the Fund may obtain short-term credits necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities, and further provided that the Fund may make margin deposits in connection with its use of financial options and futures, forward and spot currency contracts, swap transactions and other financial contracts or derivative instruments.
The Fund may invest its assets in securities of other investment companies, including securities of affiliated investment companies, as an efficient means of carrying out its investment policies and managing its uninvested cash.
Except with respect to borrowing money, if a percentage limitation is adhered to at the time of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from any change in value or net assets will not result in a violation of such limitation.
For purposes of its policies and limitations, the Fund considers certificates of deposit and demand and time deposits issued by a U.S. branch of a domestic bank or savings association, having capital, surplus, and undivided profits in excess of $100,000,000 at the time of deposit, to be "cash items."
<R></R>
Market values of the Fund's portfolio securities are determined as follows:
<R></R>
<R>
</R>
Prices provided by independent pricing services may be determined without relying exclusively on quoted prices and may consider institutional trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, stability, risk, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data or factors. From time to time, when prices cannot be obtained from an independent pricing service, securities may be valued based on quotes from broker-dealers or other financial institutions that trade the securities.
Trading in foreign securities may be completed at times which vary from the closing of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). In computing its NAV, the Fund values foreign securities at the latest closing price on the exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the closing of the NYSE. Certain foreign currency exchange rates may also be determined at the latest rate prior to the closing of the NYSE. Foreign securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at current rates. Occasionally, events that affect these values and exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and the closing of the NYSE. If such events materially affect the value of portfolio securities, these securities may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund's Board, although the actual calculation may be done by others.
The Fund's net asset value (NAV) per Share fluctuates and is based on the market value of all securities and other assets of the Fund.
Under the Distributor's Contract with the Fund, the Distributor (Federated Securities Corp.) offers Shares on a continuous, best-efforts basis.
<R>
The Fund may Federated Shareholder Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated), for providing shareholder services and maintaining shareholder accounts. Federated Shareholder Services Company may select others to perform these services for their customers and may pay them fees.
</R>
<R>
Investment professionals (such as broker-dealers or banks) may be paid fees, in significant amounts, out of the assets of the Distributor and/or Federated Shareholder Services Company (these fees do not come out of Fund assets). The Distributor and/or Federated Shareholder Services Company may be reimbursed by the Manager or its affiliates.
Investment professionals receive such fees for providing distribution-related and/or shareholder services, such as advertising, providing incentives to their sales personnel, sponsoring other activities intended to promote sales, and maintaining shareholder accounts. These payments may be based upon such factors as the number or value of Shares the investment professional sells or may sell; the value of client assets invested; and/or the type and nature of sales or marketing support furnished by the investment professional.
</R>
You may contact the Distributor to request a purchase of Shares in exchange for securities you own. The Fund reserves the right to determine whether to accept your securities and the minimum market value to accept. The Fund will value your securities in the same manner as it values its assets. This exchange is treated as a sale of your securities for federal tax purposes.
Certain investment professionals may wish to use the transfer agent's subaccounting system to minimize their internal recordkeeping requirements. The transfer agent may charge a fee based on the level of subaccounting services rendered. Investment professionals holding Shares in a fiduciary, agency, custodial or similar capacity may charge or pass through subaccounting fees as part of or in addition to normal trust or agency account fees. They may also charge fees for other services that may be related to the ownership of Shares. This information should, therefore, be read together with any agreement between the customer and the investment professional about the services provided, the fees charged for those services, and any restrictions and limitations imposed.
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right, as described below, to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
<R>
Because the Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund is obligated to pay Share redemptions to any one shareholder in cash only up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets represented by such Share class during any 90-day period.
</R>
Any Share redemption payment greater than this amount will also be in cash unless the Fund's Board determines that payment should be in kind. In such a case, the Fund will pay all or a portion of the remainder of the redemption in portfolio securities, valued in the same way as the Fund determines its NAV. The portfolio securities will be selected in a manner that the Fund's Board deems fair and equitable and, to the extent available, such securities will be readily marketable.
Redemption in kind is not as liquid as a cash redemption. If redemption is made in kind, shareholders receiving the portfolio securities and selling them before their maturity could receive less than the redemption value of the securities and could incur certain transaction costs.
Under certain circumstances, shareholders may be held personally liable as partners under Massachusetts law for obligations of the Trust. To protect its shareholders, the Trust has filed legal documents with Massachusetts that expressly disclaim the liability of its shareholders for acts or obligations of the Trust.
In the unlikely event a shareholder is held personally liable for the Trust's obligations, the Trust is required by the Declaration of Trust to use its property to protect or compensate the shareholder. On request, the Trust will defend any claim made and pay any judgment against a shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust. Therefore, financial loss resulting from liability as a shareholder will occur only if the Trust itself cannot meet its obligations to indemnify shareholders and pay judgments against them.
Each share of the Fund gives the shareholder one vote in Trustee elections and other matters submitted to shareholders for vote.
All Shares of the Fund have equal voting rights.
Trustees may be removed by the Board or by shareholders at a special meeting. A special meeting of shareholders will be called by the Board upon the written request of shareholders who own at least 10% of the Trust's outstanding shares of all series entitled to vote.
<R>
As of December 7, 2000, the following shareholders owned of record, beneficially, or both, 5% or more of outstanding Shares: Charles Schwab & Co. Inc., Attn.: Mutual Funds Dept., 101 Montgomery Street, San Francisco, CA 94104-4122, owned approximately 1,980,000 Shares, 16.29%; Covie & Co., Covenant Trust Company, Attn.: Michael Magnusson, 5101 North Francisco Ave., Chicago, IL 60625-3611 owned approximately 1,030,077 Shares, 8.48%; IMS & Co. For the Exclusive Benefit of Customers, PO Box 3865, Englewood, CO 80155-3865, owned approximately 669,227 Shares, 5.51%; and First Citizens Bank & Trust Co. As Trustee for the 401k Plan of First Citizens Bank, 100 Tryon Road, Raleigh, NC 27603-3526, owned approximately 977,955 Shares, 8.05%.
</R>
The Fund intends to meet requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. If these requirements are not met, it will not receive special tax treatment and will pay federal income tax.
The Fund will be treated as a single, separate entity for federal income tax purposes so that income earned and capital gains and losses realized by the Trust's other portfolios will be separate from those realized by the Fund.
If the Fund purchases foreign securities, their investment income may be subject to foreign withholding or other taxes that could reduce the return on these securities. Tax treaties between the United States and foreign countries, however, may reduce or eliminate the amount of foreign taxes to which the Fund would be subject. The effective rate of foreign tax cannot be predicted since the amount of Fund assets to be invested within various countries is uncertain. However, the Fund intends to operate so as to qualify for treaty-reduced tax rates when applicable.
Distributions from a Fund may be based on estimates of book income for the year. Book income generally consists solely of the coupon income generated by the portfolio, whereas tax-basis income includes gains or losses attributable to currency fluctuation. Due to differences in the book and tax treatment of fixed-income securities denominated in foreign currencies, it is difficult to project currency effects on an interim basis. Therefore, to the extent that currency fluctuations cannot be anticipated, a portion of distributions to shareholders could later be designated as a return of capital, rather than income, for income tax purposes, which may be of particular concern to simple trusts.
If the Fund invests in the stock of certain foreign corporations, they may constitute Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC), and the Fund may be subject to Federal income taxes upon disposition of PFIC investments.
If more than 50% of the value of the Fund's assets at the end of the tax year is represented by stock or securities of foreign corporations, the Fund intends to qualify for certain Code stipulations that would allow shareholders to claim a foreign tax credit or deduction on their U.S. income tax returns. The Code may limit a shareholder's ability to claim a foreign tax credit. Shareholders who elect to deduct their portion of the Fund's foreign taxes rather than take the foreign tax credit must itemize deductions on their income tax returns.
<R>

The Manager oversees the Sub-Manager, Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc., a subsidiary of Northern Trust Corporation, which conducts investment research and makes investment decisions for the Fund. The directors of the Sub-Manager are James M. Snyder, Perry R. Pero, Sheila A. Penrose, John R. Goodwin, Stephen N. Potter, and Jeffrey H. Wessel. The executive officers of the Sub-Manager are James M. Snyder, Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey H. Wessel, President and Orie L. Dudley, Jr., Chief Investment Officer.
Subject to the supervision and direction of the Trustees, the Manager provides to the Fund investment management evaluation services principally by performing initial due diligence on the Sub-Manager for the Fund and thereafter monitoring and evaluating the performance of the Sub-Manager through quantitative and qualitative analyses. In addition, the Manager conducts periodic in-person, telephonic and written consultations with the Sub-Manager. In initially evaluating the Sub-Manager, the Manager considered, among other factors, the Sub-Manager's level of expertise; relative performance over a minimum period of five years; level of efficiency; level of adherence to investment discipline or philosophy; personnel, facilities and financial strength; and quality of service and client communications. On an ongoing basis, the Manager is responsible for communicating performance expectations and evaluations to the Sub-Manager; monitoring tracking errors; monitoring and analyzing the use of futures contracts; monitoring the futures holdings of the Fund as a percentage of Fund assets; monitoring market timing in the Fund; discussing with the Sub-Manager the portfolio sampling techniques employed by the Sub-Manager; defining with the Sub-Manager the universe of stocks that comprise the large capitalization sector of the United States equity market; and ultimately recommending to the Trustees whether the Sub-Management Contract should be renewed, modified or terminated. The Manager provides written reports to the Trustees regarding the results of its evaluation and monitoring functions. In addition, the Manager is responsible for providing the Fund with administrative services, including, but not limited to, shareholder servicing and certain legal and accounting services. The Manager is also responsible for conducting all operations of the Fund, except those operations contracted to the Sub-Manager, custodian, transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent. The Manager receives an annual fee from the Fund for performing its responsibilities under the Management Contract.
</R>
The Manager and the Sub-Manager shall not be liable to the Trust, the Fund, or any Fund shareholder for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding, or sale of any security or for anything done or omitted by it, except acts or omissions involving willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties imposed upon it by its contract with the Trust.
Affiliates of the Manager may, from time to time, provide certain electronic equipment and software to institutional customers in order to facilitate the purchase of Fund Shares offered by the Distributor.
<R>
As required by SEC rules, the Fund, its Manager, and its Distributor have adopted codes of ethics. These codes govern securities trading activities of investment personnel, Fund Trustees, and certain other employees. Although they do permit these people to trade in securities, including those that the Fund could buy, they also contain significant safeguards designed to protect the Fund and its shareholders from abuses in this area, such as requirements to obtain prior approval for, and to report, particular transactions.
</R>
When selecting brokers and dealers to handle the purchase and sale of portfolio instruments, the Manager looks for prompt execution of the order at a favorable price. The Manager will generally use those who are recognized dealers in specific portfolio instruments, except when a better price and execution of the order can be obtained elsewhere. The Manager may select brokers and dealers based on whether they also offer research services (as described below). In selecting among firms believed to meet these criteria, the Manager may give consideration to those firms which have sold or are selling Shares of the Fund and other funds distributed by the Distributor and its affiliates. The Manager makes decisions on portfolio transactions and selects brokers and dealers subject to review by the Fund's Board.
Research services may include advice as to the advisability of investing in securities; security analysis and reports; economic studies; industry studies; receipt of quotations for portfolio evaluations; and similar services. Research services may be used by the Manager or by affiliates of Federated in advising other accounts. To the extent that receipt of these services may replace services for which the Manager or its affiliates might otherwise have paid, it would tend to reduce their expenses. The Manager and its affiliates exercise reasonable business judgment in selecting those brokers who offer brokerage and research services to execute securities transactions. They determine in good faith that commissions charged by such persons are reasonable in relationship to the value of the brokerage and research services provided.
Investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those of other accounts managed by the Manager. When the Fund and one or more of those accounts invests in, or disposes of, the same security, available investments or opportunities for sales will be allocated among the Fund and the account(s) in a manner believed by the Manager to be equitable. While the coordination and ability to participate in volume transactions may benefit the Fund, it is possible that this procedure could adversely impact the price paid or received and/or the position obtained or disposed of by the Fund.
Federated Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated, provides administrative personnel and services (including certain legal and financial reporting services) necessary to operate the Fund. Federated Services Company provides these at the following annual rate of 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 of 1% | on the first $250 million | |
| 0.125 of 1% | on the next $250 million | |
| 0.100 of 1% | on the next $250 million | |
| 0.075 of 1% | on assets in excess of $750 million |
The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $125,000 per portfolio and $30,000 per each additional class of Shares. Federated Services Company may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee and may reimburse the Fund for expenses.
Federated Services Company also provides certain accounting and recordkeeping services with respect to the Fund's portfolio investments for a fee based on Fund assets plus out-of-pocket expenses.
State Street Bank and Trust Company, Boston, Massachusetts, is custodian for the securities and cash of the Fund. Foreign instruments purchased by the Fund are held by foreign banks participating in a network coordinated by State Street Bank.
Federated Services Company, through its registered transfer agent subsidiary, Federated Shareholder Services Company, maintains all necessary shareholder records. The Fund pays the transfer agent a fee based on the size, type and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.

The independent auditor for the Fund, Ernst & Young LLP, plans and performs its audit so that it may provide an opinion as to whether the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

<R>
The Fund may advertise Share performance by using the SEC's standard method for calculating performance applicable to all mutual funds. The SEC also permits this standard performance information to be accompanied by non-standard performance information.
The performance of Shares depends upon such variables as: portfolio quality; average portfolio maturity; type and value of portfolio securities; changes in interest rates; changes or differences in the Fund's or any class of Shares' expenses; and various other factors.
</R>
Share performance fluctuates on a daily basis largely because net earnings fluctuate daily. Both net earnings and offering price per Share are factors in the computation of yield and total return.
<R>
Total returns are given for the one-year, five-year and Start of Performance periods ended October 31, 2000.
Yield is given for the 30-day period ended October 31, 2000.
| 30-Day Period | 1 Year | 5 Years | Start of Performance on 11/5/1992 |
|||||
| Total Return | N/A | 30.40% | 20.41% | 17.57% | ||||
| Yield | 0.87% | N/A | N/A | N/A |
</R>
Total return represents the change (expressed as a percentage) in the value of Shares over a specific period of time, and includes the investment of income and capital gains distributions.
The average annual total return for Shares is the average compounded rate of return for a given period that would equate a $1,000 initial investment to the ending redeemable value of that investment. The ending redeemable value is computed by multiplying the number of Shares owned at the end of the period by the NAV per Share at the end of the period. The number of Shares owned at the end of the period is based on the number of Shares purchased at the beginning of the period with $1,000, less any applicable sales charge, adjusted over the period by any additional Shares, assuming the annual reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.
The yield of Shares is calculated by dividing: (i) the net investment income per Share earned by the Shares over a 30-day period; by (ii) the maximum offering price per Share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized using semi-annual compounding. This means that the amount of income generated during the 30-day period is assumed to be generated each month over a 12-month period and is reinvested every six months. The yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned by Shares because of certain adjustments required by the SEC and, therefore, may not correlate to the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders.
To the extent investment professionals and broker/dealers charge fees in connection with services provided in conjunction with an investment in Shares, the Share performance is lower for shareholders paying those fees.
Advertising and sales literature may include:
The Fund may compare its performance, or performance for the types of securities in which it invests, to a variety of other investments, including federally insured bank products such as bank savings accounts, certificates of deposit, and Treasury bills.
The Fund may quote information from reliable sources regarding individual countries and regions, world stock exchanges, and economic and demographic statistics.
You may use financial publications and/or indices to obtain a more complete view of Share performance. When comparing performance, you should consider all relevant factors such as the composition of the index used, prevailing market conditions, portfolio compositions of other funds, and methods used to value portfolio securities and compute offering price. The financial publications and/or indices which the Fund uses in advertising may include:
Ranks funds in various fund categories by making comparative calculations using total return. Total return assumes the reinvestment of all capital gains distributions and income dividends and takes into account any change in net asset value over a specified period of time.

In addition, the S&P indexes assume reinvestments of all dividends paid by stocks listed on its index. Taxes due on any of these distributions are not included, nor are brokerage or other fees calculated in the S&P figures.

<R>
The Fund is a diversified portfolio of Federated Index Trust (Trust). The Trust is an open-end, management investment company that was established under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on January 30, 1990. The Trust may offer separate series of shares representing interests in separate portfolios of securities. The Trust changed the name of the Fund from Mini-Cap Fund to Federated Mini-Cap Fund on December 5, 1994.
The Board of Trustees (the Board) has established two classes of shares of the Fund, known as Institutional Shares and Class C Shares (Shares). This SAI relates to both classes of Shares. The Funds' investment adviser is Federated Investment Management Company (Adviser).
</R>
In pursuing its investment strategy, the Fund may invest in the following securities for any purpose that is consistent with its investment objective.
Equity securities represent a share of an issuer's earnings and assets, after the issuer pays its liabilities. The Fund cannot predict the income it will receive from equity securities because issuers generally have discretion as to the payment of any dividends or distributions. However, equity securities offer greater potential for appreciation than many other types of securities, because their value increases directly with the value of the issuer's business. The following describes the types of equity securities in which the Fund may invest.
Common stocks are the most prevalent type of equity security. Common stocks receive the issuer's earnings after the issuer pays its creditors and any preferred stockholders. As a result, changes in an issuer's earnings directly influence the value of its common stock.
Preferred stocks have the right to receive specified dividends or distributions before the issuer makes payments on its common stock. Some preferred stocks also participate in dividends and distributions paid on common stock. Preferred stocks may also permit the issuer to redeem the stock. The Fund may treat such redeemable preferred stock as a fixed income security.
Entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability companies, business trusts and companies organized outside the United States may issue securities comparable to common or preferred stock.
REITs are real estate investment trusts that lease, operate and finance commercial real estate. REITs are exempt from federal corporate income tax if they limit their operations and distribute most of their income. Such tax requirements limit a REIT's ability to respond to changes in the commercial real estate market.
Warrants give the Fund the option to buy the issuer's equity securities at a specified price (the exercise price) at a specified future date (the expiration date). The Fund may buy the designated securities by paying the exercise price before the expiration date. Warrants may become worthless if the price of the stock does not rise above the exercise price by the expiration date. This increases the market risks of warrants as compared to the underlying security. Rights are the same as warrants, except companies typically issue rights to existing stockholders.
Fixed income securities pay interest, dividends or distributions at a specified rate. The rate may be a fixed percentage of the principal or adjusted periodically. In addition, the issuer of a fixed income security must repay the principal amount of the security, normally within a specified time. Fixed income securities provide more regular income than equity securities. However, the returns on fixed income securities are limited and normally do not increase with the issuer's earnings. This limits the potential appreciation of fixed income securities as compared to equity securities.
A security's yield measures the annual income earned on a security as a percentage of its price. A security's yield will increase or decrease depending upon whether it costs less (a discount) or more (a premium) than the principal amount. If the issuer may redeem the security before its scheduled maturity, the price and yield on a discount or premium security may change based upon the probability of an early redemption. Securities with higher risks generally have higher yields.
The following describes the types of fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest.
Treasury securities are direct obligations of the federal government of the United States. Treasury securities are generally regarded as having the lowest credit risks.
Agency securities are issued or guaranteed by a federal agency or other government sponsored entity acting under federal authority (a GSE). The United States supports some GSEs with its full faith and credit. Other GSEs receive support through federal subsidies, loans or other benefits. A few GSEs have no explicit financial support, but are regarded as having implied support because the federal government sponsors their activities. Agency securities are generally regarded as having low credit risks, but not as low as treasury securities.
<R>
The Fund treats mortgage backed securities guaranteed by GSEs as agency securities. Although a GSE guarantee protects against credit risks, it does not reduce the market and prepayment risks of these mortgage backed securities.
</R>
Derivative ContractsDerivative contracts are financial instruments that require payments based upon changes in the values of designated (or underlying) securities, currencies, commodities, financial indices or other assets. Some derivative contracts (such as futures, forwards and options) require payments relating to a future trade involving the underlying asset. Other derivative contracts (such as swaps) require payments relating to the income or returns from the underlying asset. The other party to a derivative contract is referred to as a counterparty.
Many derivative contracts are traded on securities or commodities exchanges. In this case, the exchange sets all the terms of the contract except for the price. Investors make payments due under their contracts through the exchange. Most exchanges require investors to maintain margin accounts through their brokers to cover their potential obligations to the exchange. Parties to the contract make (or collect) daily payments to the margin accounts to reflect losses (or gains) in the value of their contracts. This protects investors against potential defaults by the counterparty. Trading contracts on an exchange also allows investors to close out their contracts by entering into offsetting contracts.
For example, the Fund could close out an open contract to buy an asset at a future date by entering into an offsetting contract to sell the same asset on the same date. If the offsetting sale price is more than the original purchase price, the Fund realizes a gain; if it is less, the Fund realizes a loss. Exchanges may limit the amount of open contracts permitted at any one time. Such limits may prevent the Fund from closing out a position. If this happens, the Fund will be required to keep the contract open (even if it is losing money on the contract), and to make any payments required under the contract (even if it has to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable prices to do so). Inability to close out a contract could also harm the Fund by preventing it from disposing of or trading any assets it has been using to secure its obligations under the contract.
The Fund may also trade derivative contracts over-the-counter (OTC) in transactions negotiated directly between the Fund and the counterparty. OTC contracts do not necessarily have standard terms, so they cannot be directly offset with other OTC contracts. In addition, OTC contracts with more specialized terms may be more difficult to price than exchange traded contracts. Depending upon how the Fund uses derivative contracts and the relationships between the market value of a derivative contract and the underlying asset, derivative contracts may increase or decrease the Fund's exposure to interest rate and currency risks, and may also expose the Fund to liquidity and leverage risks. OTC contracts also expose the Fund to credit risks in the event that a counterparty defaults on the contract.
The Fund may trade in the following types of derivative contracts in an amount not to exceed 20% of its total net assets.
Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of an underlying asset at a specified price, date, and time. Entering into a contract to buy an underlying asset is commonly referred to as buying a contract or holding a long position in the asset. Entering into a contract to sell an underlying asset is commonly referred to as selling a contract or holding a short position in the asset. Futures contracts are considered to be commodity contracts. Futures contracts traded OTC are frequently referred to as forward contracts. The Fund may buy and sell stock index futures as a substitute for direct investments in the Index in order to help fully replicate the performance of the Index.
Options are rights to buy or sell an underlying asset for a specified price (the exercise price) during, or at the end of, a specified period. A call option gives the holder (buyer) the right to buy the underlying asset from the seller (writer) of the option. A put option gives the holder the right to sell the underlying asset to the writer of the option. The writer of the option receives a payment, or premium, from the buyer, which the writer keeps regardless of whether the buyer uses (or exercises) the option.
The Fund may:
The Fund may also write call options on portfolio securities to generate income from premiums, and in anticipation of a decrease or only limited increase in the value of the underlying asset. If a call written by the Fund is exercised, the Fund foregoes any possible profit from an increase in the market price of the underlying asset over the exercise price plus the premium received.
When the Fund writes options on futures contracts, it will be subject to margin requirements similar to those applied to futures contracts.
Foreign securities are securities of issuers based outside the United States. The Fund considers an issuer to be based outside the United States if:
Foreign securities are primarily denominated in foreign currencies. Along with the risks normally associated with domestic securities of the same type, foreign securities are subject to currency risks and risks of foreign investing. Trading in certain foreign markets is also subject to liquidity risks.
<R>
Depositary receipts represent interests in underlying securities issued by a foreign company. Depositary receipts are not traded in the same market as the underlying security. The foreign securities underlying American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are not traded in the United States. ADRs provide a way to buy shares of foreign-based companies in the United States rather than in overseas markets. In addition, ADRs are traded in U.S. dollars, eliminating the need for foreign exchange transactions. The foreign securities underlying European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), and International Depositary Receipts (IDRs), are traded globally or outside the United States. Depositary receipts involve many of the same risks of investing directly in foreign securities, including currency risks and risks of foreign investing.
</R>
<R>
Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the Fund buys a security from a dealer or bank and agrees to sell the security back at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The repurchase price exceeds the sale price, reflecting the Fund's return on the transaction. This return is unrelated to the interest rate on the underlying security. The Fund will enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as securities dealers, deemed creditworthy by the Adviser.
The Fund's custodian or subcustodian will take possession of the securities subject to repurchase agreements. The Adviser or subcustodian will monitor the value of the underlying security each day to ensure that the value of the security always equals or exceeds the repurchase price.
</R>
Repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks.
Reverse repurchase agreements are repurchase agreements in which the Fund is the seller (rather than the buyer) of the securities, and agrees to repurchase them at an agreed upon time and price. A reverse repurchase agreement may be viewed as a type of borrowing by the Fund. Reverse repurchase agreements are subject to credit risks. In addition, reverse repurchase agreements create leverage risks because the Fund must repurchase the underlying security at a higher price, regardless of the market value of the security at the time of repurchase.
Delayed delivery transactions, including when issued transactions, are arrangements in which the Fund buys securities for a set price, with payment and delivery of the securities scheduled for a future time. During the period between purchase and settlement, no payment is made by the Fund to the issuer and no interest accrues to the Fund. The Fund records the transaction when it agrees to buy the securities and reflects their value in determining the price of its shares. Settlement dates may be a month or more after entering into these transactions so that the market values of the securities bought may vary from the purchase prices. Therefore, delayed delivery transactions create interest rate risks for the Fund. Delayed delivery transactions also involve credit risks in the event of a counterparty default.
<R>
The Fund may lend portfolio securities to borrowers that the Adviser deems creditworthy. In return, the Fund receives cash or liquid securities from the borrower as collateral. The borrower must furnish additional collateral if the market value of the loaned securities increases. Also, the borrower must pay the Fund the equivalent of any dividends or interest received on the loaned securities.
</R>
The Fund will reinvest cash collateral in securities that qualify as an acceptable investment for the Fund. However, the Fund must pay interest to the borrower for the use of cash collateral.
Loans are subject to termination at the option of the Fund or the borrower. The Fund will not have the right to vote on securities while they are on loan, but it will terminate a loan in anticipation of any important vote. The Fund may pay administrative and custodial fees in connection with a loan and may pay a negotiated portion of the interest earned on the cash collateral to a securities lending agent or broker.
Securities lending activities are subject to interest rate risks and credit risks.
In order to secure its obligations in connection with derivatives contracts or special transactions, the Fund will either own the underlying assets, enter into an offsetting transaction or set aside readily marketable securities with a value that equals or exceeds the Fund's obligations. Unless the Fund has other readily marketable assets to set aside, it cannot trade assets used to secure such obligations without entering into an offsetting derivative contract or terminating a special transaction. This may cause the Fund to miss favorable trading opportunities or to realize losses on derivative contracts or special transactions.
The SEC has granted an exemption that permits the Fund and all other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc. ("Federated funds") to lend and borrow money for certain temporary purposes directly to and from other Federated funds. Participation in this inter-fund lending program is voluntary for both borrowing and lending funds, and an inter-fund loan is only made if it benefits each participating fund. Federated administers the program according to procedures approved by the Fund's Board, and the Board monitors the operation of the program. Any inter-fund loan must comply with certain conditions set out in the exemption, which are designed to assure fairness and protect all participating funds.
For example, inter-fund lending is permitted only (a) to meet shareholder redemption requests, and (b) to meet commitments arising from "failed" trades. All inter-fund loans must be repaid in seven days or less. The Fund's participation in this program must be consistent with its investment policies and limitations, and must meet certain percentage tests. Inter-fund loans may be made only when the rate of interest to be charged is more attractive to the lending fund than market-competitive rates on overnight repurchase agreements (the "Repo Rate") and more attractive to the borrowing fund than the rate of interest that would be charged by an unaffiliated bank for short-term borrowings (the "Bank Loan Rate"), as determined by the Board. The interest rate imposed on inter-fund loans is the average of the Repo Rate and the Bank Loan Rate.

There are many factors which may affect an investment in the Fund. The Fund's principal risks are described in its prospectus. Additional risk factors are outlined below.
<R>
</R>
The fund seeks to provide investment results generally corresponding to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly traded common stocks comprising the Russell 2000® Index.
With respect to securities comprising 75% of the value of its total assets, the Fund will not purchase securities of any one issuer (other than cash; cash items; securities issued or guaranteed by the government of the United States or its agencies or instrumentalities and repurchase agreements collateralized by such U.S. government securities; and securities of other investment companies) if, as a result, more than 5% of the value of its total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer, or the Fund would own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer.
The Fund may borrow money, directly or indirectly, and issue senior securities to the maximum extent permitted under the 1940 Act.
The Fund will not make investments that will result in the concentration of its investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in the same industry. Government securities, municipal securities and bank instruments are not deemed to constitute an industry.
The Fund may not make loans, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from purchasing debt obligations, entering into repurchase agreements, lending its assets to broker/dealers or institutional investors and investing in loans, including assignments and participation interests.
The Fund may not underwrite the securities of other issuers, except that the Fund may engage in transactions involving the acquisition, disposition or resale of its portfolio securities, under circumstances where it may be considered to be an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933.
The Fund may not purchase or sell real estate, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from investing in issuers which invest, deal, or otherwise engage in transactions in real estate or interests therein, or investing in securities that are secured by real estate or interests therein. The Fund may exercise its rights under agreements relating to such securities, including the right to enforce security interests and to hold real estate acquired by reason of such enforcement until that real estate can be liquidated in an orderly manner.
The Fund may not purchase or sell physical commodities, provided that the Fund may purchase securities of companies that deal in commodities.
<R>
The above limitations cannot be changed unless authorized by the Board and by the "vote of a majority of its outstanding voting securities," as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act). The following limitations, however, may be changed by the Board without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be notified before any material change in these limitations becomes effective.
</R>
The Fund will not mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any of its assets, provided that this shall not apply to the transfer of securities in connection with any permissible borrowing or to collateral arrangements in connection with permissible activities.
<R>
To conform to the current view of the SEC staff that only domestic bank instruments may be excluded from industry concentration limitations, as a matter of non-fundamental policy, the Fund will not exclude foreign bank instruments from industry concentration limitation tests so long as the policy of the SEC remains in effect. In addition, investments in bank instruments, and investments in certain industrial development bonds funded by activities in a single industry, will be deemed to constitute investment in an industry, except when held for temporary defensive purposes. The investment of more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets in any one industry will constitute "concentration."
As a matter of non-fundamental policy, (a) utility companies will be divided according to their services, for example, gas, gas transmission, electric and telephone will each be considered a separate industry; (b) financial service companies will be classified according to the end users of their services, for example, automobile finance, bank finance and diversified finance will each be considered a separate industry; and (c) asset-backed securities will be classified according to the underlying assets securing such securities.
</R>
The Fund may invest in restricted securities. Restricted securities are any securities in which the Fund may invest pursuant to its investment objective and policies but which are subject to restrictions on resale under federal securities law. Under criteria established by the Trustees certain restricted securities are determined to be liquid. To the extent that restricted securities are not determined to be liquid, the Fund will limit their purchase, together with other illiquid securities to 15% of its net assets.
The Fund will not purchase securities for which there is no readily available market, or enter into repurchase agreements or purchase time deposits maturing in more than seven days, if immediately after and as a result, the value of such securities would exceed, in the aggregate, 15% of the Fund's net assets.
The Fund will not purchase securities on margin provided that the Fund may obtain short-term credits necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities, and further provided that the Fund may make margin deposits in connection with its use of financial options and futures, forward and spot currency contracts, swap transactions and other financial contracts or derivative instruments.
The Fund may invest its assets in securities of other investment companies, including securities of affiliated investment companies, as an efficient means of carrying out its investment policies and managing its uninvested cash.
Except with respect to borrowing money, if a percentage limitation is adhered to at the time of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from any change in value or net assets will not result in a violation of such limitation.
For purposes of its policies and limitations, the Fund considers certificates of deposit and demand and time deposits issued by a U.S. branch of a domestic bank or savings association, having capital, surplus, and undivided profits in excess of $100,000,000 at the time of deposit, to be "cash items."
<R>
</R>
Market values of the Fund's portfolio securities are determined as follows:
<R>
</R>
Prices provided by independent pricing services may be determined without relying exclusively on quoted prices and may consider institutional trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, stability, risk, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data or factors. From time to time, when prices cannot be obtained from an independent pricing service, securities may be valued based on quotes from broker-dealers or other financial institutions that trade the securities.
Trading in foreign securities may be completed at times which vary from the closing of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). In computing its NAV, the Fund values foreign securities at the latest closing price on the exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the closing of the NYSE. Certain foreign currency exchange rates may also be determined at the latest rate prior to the closing of the NYSE. Foreign securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at current rates. Occasionally, events that affect these values and exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and the closing of the NYSE. If such events materially affect the value of portfolio securities, these securities may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund's Board, although the actual calculation may be done by others.
The Fund's net asset value (NAV) per Share fluctuates and is based on the market value of all securities and other assets of the Fund. The NAV for each class of Shares may differ due to the variance in daily net income realized by each class. Such variance will reflect only accrued net income to which the shareholders of a particular class are entitled.
<R>
These reductions or eliminations are offered because: no sales commissions have been advanced to the investment professional selling Shares; the shareholder has already paid a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC); or nominal sales efforts are associated with the original purchase of Shares.
</R>
Upon notification to the Distributor or the Fund's transfer agent, no CDSC will be imposed on redemptions:
</R>
Under the Distributor's Contract with the Fund, the Distributor (Federated Securities Corp.) offers Shares on a continuous, best-efforts basis.
<R>
As a compensation-type plan, the Rule 12b-1 Plan is designed to pay the Distributor (who may then pay investment professionals such as banks, broker/dealers, trust departments of banks, and registered investment advisers) for marketing activities (such as advertising, printing and distributing prospectuses, and providing incentives to investment professionals) to promote sales of Shares so that overall Fund assets are maintained or increased. This helps the Fund achieve economies of scale, reduce per share expenses, and provide cash for orderly portfolio management and Share redemptions. In addition, the Fund's service providers that receive asset-based fees also benefit from stable or increasing Fund assets.
</R>
The Fund may compensate the Distributor more or less than its actual marketing expenses. In no event will the Fund pay for any expenses of the Distributor that exceed the maximum Rule 12b-1 Plan fee.
<R>
For some classes of Shares, the maximum Rule 12b-1 Plan fee that can be paid in any one year may not be sufficient to cover the marketing-related expenses the Distributor has incurred. Therefore, it may take the Distributor a number of years to recoup these expenses.
</R>
The Fund may pay Federated Shareholder Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. (Federated), for providing shareholder services and maintaining shareholder accounts. Federated Shareholder Services Company may select others to perform these services for their customers and may pay them fees.
<R>
Investment professionals (such as broker-dealers or banks) may be paid fees, in significant amounts, out of the assets of the Distributor and/or Federated Shareholder Services Company (these fees do not come out of Fund assets). The Distributor and/or Federated Shareholder Services Company may be reimbursed by the Adviser or its affiliates.
Investment professionals receive such fees for providing distribution-related and/or shareholder services, such as advertising, providing incentives to their sales personnel, sponsoring other activities intended to promote sales, and maintaining shareholder accounts. These payments may be based upon such factors as the number or value of Shares the investment professional sells or may sell; the value of client assets invested; and/or the type and nature of sales or marketing support furnished by the investment professional.
</R>
When an investment professional's customer purchases shares, the investment professional may receive an amount up to 1.00%, of the NAV of Class C Shares.
You may contact the Distributor to request a purchase of Shares in exchange for securities you own. The Fund reserves the right to determine whether to accept your securities and the minimum market value to accept. The Fund will value your securities in the same manner as it values its assets. This exchange is treated as a sale of your securities for federal tax purposes.
Certain investment professionals may wish to use the transfer agent's subaccounting system to minimize their internal recordkeeping requirements. The transfer agent may charge a fee based on the level of subaccounting services rendered. Investment professionals holding Shares in a fiduciary, agency, custodial or similar capacity may charge or pass through subaccounting fees as part of or in addition to normal trust or agency account fees. They may also charge fees for other services that may be related to the ownership of Shares. This information should, therefore, be read together with any agreement between the customer and the investment professional about the services provided, the fees charged for those services, and any restrictions and limitations imposed.
Although the Fund intends to pay Share redemptions in cash, it reserves the right, as described below, to pay the redemption price in whole or in part by a distribution of the Fund's portfolio securities.
<R>
Because the Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund is obligated to pay Share redemptions to any one shareholder in cash only up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets represented by such Share class during any 90-day period.
</R>
Any Share redemption payment greater than this amount will also be in cash unless the Fund's Board determines that payment should be in kind. In such a case, the Fund will pay all or a portion of the remainder of the redemption in portfolio securities, valued in the same way as the Fund determines its NAV. The portfolio securities will be selected in a manner that the Fund's Board deems fair and equitable and, to the extent available, such securities will be readily marketable.
Redemption in kind is not as liquid as a cash redemption. If redemption is made in kind, shareholders receiving the portfolio securities and selling them before their maturity could receive less than the redemption value of the securities and could incur certain transaction costs.
Under certain circumstances, shareholders may be held personally liable as partners under Massachusetts law for obligations of the Trust. To protect its shareholders, the Trust has filed legal documents with Massachusetts that expressly disclaim the liability of its shareholders for acts or obligations of the Trust.
In the unlikely event a shareholder is held personally liable for the Trust obligations, the Trust is required by the Declaration of Trust to use its property to protect or compensate the shareholder. On request, the Trust will defend any claim made and pay any judgment against a shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust. Therefore, financial loss resulting from liability as a shareholder will occur only if the Trust itself cannot meet its obligations to indemnify shareholders and pay judgments against them.
<R>
Each share of the Fund gives the shareholder one vote in Trustee elections and other matters submitted to shareholders for vote.
All Shares of the Fund have equal voting rights, except that in matters affecting only a particular Fund or class, only Shares of that Fund or class are entitled to vote.
Trustees may be removed by the Board or by shareholders at a special meeting. A special meeting of shareholders will be called by the Board upon the written request of shareholders who own at least 10% of the Trust's outstanding shares of all series entitled to vote.
As of December 4, 2000, the following shareholders owned of record, beneficially, or both, 5% or more of outstanding Shares: Charles Schwab & Co. Inc., 101 Montgomery Street, San Francisco, CA 94104-4122 (12.74% Institutional Shares); IMS & Co., PO Box 3865, Englewood, CO 80155-3865 (11.53% Institutional Shares); Edward Jones & Co., 201 Progress Parkway, Maryland Heights, MO 63043-3009 (8.47% Class C Shares); MLPF&S for the sole benefit of its customers, 4800 Deer Lake Drive East, 2nd Floor, Jacksonville, FL 32246-6484 (14.36% Class C Shares); Donaldson Lufkin Jenrette, PO Box 2052, Jersey City, NJ 07303-2052 (5.62% Class C Shares).
</R>
The Fund intends to meet requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. If these requirements are not met, it will not receive special tax treatment and will pay federal income tax.
The Fund will be treated as a single, separate entity for federal income tax purposes so that income earned and capital gains and losses realized by the Trust's other portfolios will be separate from those realized by the Fund.
If the Fund purchases foreign securities, their investment income may be subject to foreign withholding or other taxes that could reduce the return on these securities. Tax treaties between the United States and foreign countries, however, may reduce or eliminate the amount of foreign taxes to which the Fund would be subject. The effective rate of foreign tax cannot be predicted since the amount of Fund assets to be invested within various countries is uncertain. However, the Fund intends to operate so as to qualify for treaty-reduced tax rates when applicable.
Distributions from a Fund may be based on estimates of book income for the year. Book income generally consists solely of the coupon income generated by the portfolio, whereas tax-basis income includes gains or losses attributable to currency fluctuation. Due to differences in the book and tax treatment of fixed-income securities denominated in foreign currencies, it is difficult to project currency effects on an interim basis. Therefore, to the extent that currency fluctuations cannot be anticipated, a portion of distributions to shareholders could later be designated as a return of capital, rather than income, for income tax purposes, which may be of particular concern to simple trusts.
If the Fund invests in the stock of certain foreign corporations, they may constitute Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC), and the Fund may be subject to Federal income taxes upon disposition of PFIC investments.
If more than 50% of the value of the Fund's assets at the end of the tax year is represented by stock or securities of foreign corporations, the Fund intends to qualify for certain Code stipulations that would allow shareholders to claim a foreign tax credit or deduction on their U.S. income tax returns. The Code may limit a shareholder's ability to claim a foreign tax credit. Shareholders who elect to deduct their portion of the Fund's foreign taxes rather than take the foreign tax credit must itemize deductions on their income tax returns.
<R>
The Board is responsible for managing the Trust's business affairs and for exercising all the Trust's powers except those reserved for the shareholders.

The Manager oversees the Sub-Manager, Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc., a subsidiary of Northern Trust Corporation, which conducts investment research and makes investment decisions for the Fund. The directors of the Sub-Manager are James M. Snyder, Perry R. Pero, Sheila A. Penrose, John R. Goodwin, Stephen N. Potter, and Jeffrey H. Wessel. The executive officers of the Sub-Manager are James M. Snyder, Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey H. Wessel, President and Orie L. Dudley, Jr., Chief Investment Officer.
Subject to the supervision and direction of the Trustees, the Manager provides to the Fund investment management evaluation services principally by performing initial due diligence on the Sub-Manager for the Fund and thereafter monitoring and evaluating the performance of the Sub-Manager through quantitative and qualitative analyses. In addition, the Manager conducts periodic in-person, telephonic and written consultations with the Sub-Manager. In initially evaluating the Sub-Manager, the Manager considered, among other factors, the Sub-Manager's level of expertise; relative performance over a minimum period of five years; level of efficiency; level of adherence to investment discipline or philosophy; personnel, facilities and financial strength; and quality of service and client communications. On an ongoing basis, the Manager is responsible for communicating performance expectations and evaluations to the Sub-Manager; monitoring tracking errors; monitoring and analyzing the use of futures contracts; monitoring the futures holdings of the Fund as a percentage of Fund assets; monitoring market timing in the Fund; discussing with the Sub-Manager the portfolio sampling techniques employed by the Sub-Manager; defining with the Sub-Manager the universe of stocks that comprise the large capitalization sector of the United States equity market; and ultimately recommending to the Trustees whether the Sub-Management Contract should be renewed, modified or terminated. The Manager provides written reports to the Trustees regarding the results of its evaluation and monitoring functions. In addition, the Manager is responsible for providing the Fund with administrative services, including, but not limited to, shareholder servicing and certain legal and accounting services. The Manager is also responsible for conducting all operations of the Fund, except those operations contracted to the Sub-Manager, custodian, transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent. The Manager receives an annual fee from the Fund for performing its responsibilities under the Management Contract.
</R>
The Manager and the Sub-Manager shall not be liable to the Trust, the Fund, or any Fund shareholder for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding, or sale of any security or for anything done or omitted by it, except acts or omissions involving willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties imposed upon it by its contract with the Trust.
Affiliates of the Manager may, from time to time, provide certain electronic equipment and software to institutional customers in order to facilitate the purchase of Fund Shares offered by the Distributor.
<R>
As required by SEC rules, the Fund, its Manager, and its Distributor have adopted codes of ethics. These codes govern securities trading activities of investment personnel, Fund Trustees, and certain other employees. Although they do permit these people to trade in securities, including those that the Fund could buy, they also contain significant safeguards designed to protect the Fund and its shareholders from abuses in this area, such as requirements to obtain prior approval for, and to report, particular transactions.
</R>
When selecting brokers and dealers to handle the purchase and sale of portfolio instruments, the Manager looks for prompt execution of the order at a favorable price. The Manager will generally use those who are recognized dealers in specific portfolio instruments, except when a better price and execution of the order can be obtained elsewhere. The Manager may select brokers and dealers based on whether they also offer research services (as described below). In selecting among firms believed to meet these criteria, the Manager may give consideration to those firms which have sold or are selling Shares of the Fund and other funds distributed by the Distributor and its affiliates. The Manager makes decisions on portfolio transactions and selects brokers and dealers subject to review by the Fund's Board.
Research services may include advice as to the advisability of investing in securities; security analysis and reports; economic studies; industry studies; receipt of quotations for portfolio evaluations; and similar services. Research services may be used by the Manager or by affiliates of Federated in advising other accounts. To the extent that receipt of these services may replace services for which the Manager or its affiliates might otherwise have paid, it would tend to reduce their expenses. The Manager and its affiliates exercise reasonable business judgment in selecting those brokers who offer brokerage and research services to execute securities transactions. They determine in good faith that commissions charged by such persons are reasonable in relationship to the value of the brokerage and research services provided.
Investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those of other accounts managed by the Manager. When the Fund and one or more of those accounts invests in, or disposes of, the same security, available investments or opportunities for sales will be allocated among the Fund and the account(s) in a manner believed by the Manager to be equitable. While the coordination and ability to participate in volume transactions may benefit the Fund, it is possible that this procedure could adversely impact the price paid or received and/or the position obtained or disposed of by the Fund.
Federated Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated, provides administrative personnel and services (including certain legal and financial reporting services) necessary to operate the Fund. Federated Services Company provides these at the following annual rate of 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 of 1% | on the first $250 million | |
| 0.125 of 1% | on the next $250 million | |
| 0.100 of 1% | on the next $250 million | |
| 0.075 of 1% | on assets in excess of $750 million |
The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $125,000 per portfolio and $30,000 per each additional class of Shares. Federated Services Company may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee and may reimburse the Fund for expenses.
Federated Services Company also provides certain accounting and recordkeeping services with respect to the Fund's portfolio investments for a fee based on Fund assets plus out-of-pocket expenses.
State Street Bank and Trust Company, Boston, Massachusetts, is custodian for the securities and cash of the Fund. Foreign instruments purchased by the Fund are held by foreign banks participating in a network coordinated by State Street Bank.
Federated Services Company, through its registered transfer agent subsidiary, Federated Shareholder Services Company, maintains all necessary shareholder records. The Fund pays the transfer agent a fee based on the size, type and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.
<R>
The independent auditor for the Fund, Ernst & Young LLP, plans and performs its audit so that it may provide an opinion as to whether the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Fees are allocated among classes based on their pro rata share of Fund assets, except for marketing (Rule 12b-1) fees and shareholder services fees, which are borne only by the applicable class of Shares.
If the Fund's expenses are capped at a particular level, the cap does not include reimbursement to the Fund of any expenses incurred by shareholders who use the transfer agent's subaccounting facilities.
<R>
The Fund may advertise Share performance by using the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) standard method for calculating performance applicable to all mutual funds. The SEC also permits this standard performance information to be accompanied by non-standard performance information.
</R>
The performance of Shares depends upon such variables as: portfolio quality; average portfolio maturity; type and value of portfolio securities; changes in interest rates; changes or differences in the Fund's or any class of Shares' expenses; and various other factors.
Share performance fluctuates on a daily basis largely because net earnings fluctuate daily. Both net earnings and offering price per Share are factors in the computation of yield and total return.
<R>
Total returns are given for the one-year, five-year and Start of Performance periods ended October 31, 2000.
Yield is given for the 30-day period ended October 31, 2000.

| Yield | 0.12% | -- | -- |
</R>
Total return represents the change (expressed as a percentage) in the value of Shares over a specific period of time, and includes the investment of income and capital gains distributions.
The average annual total return for Shares is the average compounded rate of return for a given period that would equate a $1,000 initial investment to the ending redeemable value of that investment. The ending redeemable value is computed by multiplying the number of Shares owned at the end of the period by the NAV per Share at the end of the period. The number of Shares owned at the end of the period is based on the number of Shares purchased at the beginning of the period with $1,000, less any applicable sales charge, adjusted over the period by any additional Shares, assuming the annual reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.
The yield of Shares is calculated by dividing: (i) the net investment income per Share earned by the Shares over a 30-day period; by (ii) the maximum offering price per Share on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized using semi-annual compounding. This means that the amount of income generated during the 30-day period is assumed to be generated each month over a 12-month period and is reinvested every six months. The yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned by Shares because of certain adjustments required by the SEC and, therefore, may not correlate to the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders.
To the extent investment professionals and broker/dealers charge fees in connection with services provided in conjunction with an investment in Shares, the Share performance is lower for shareholders paying those fees.
Advertising and sales literature may include:
The Fund may compare its performance, or performance for the types of securities in which it invests, to a variety of other investments, including federally insured bank products such as bank savings accounts, certificates of deposit, and Treasury bills.
The Fund may quote information from reliable sources regarding individual countries and regions, world stock exchanges, and economic and demographic statistics.
You may use financial publications and/or indices to obtain a more complete view of Share performance. When comparing performance, you should consider all relevant factors such as the composition of the index used, prevailing market conditions, portfolio compositions of other funds, and methods used to value portfolio securities and compute offering price. The financial publications and/or indices which the Fund uses in advertising may include:
