Federated Hermes Premier Municipal Income Fund: the fund is a closed-end fund. Unlike open-end funds, closed-end funds are not continually offered. There is a one-time public offering and once issued, shares of closed-end funds are bought and sold in the open market. Consequently, shares of closed-end funds may trade at, above or below their net asset values (“NAV”).
Federated Hermes Project and Trade Finance Tender Fund: the fund is a continuously-offered, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The fund will not list shares on any securities exchange, and it is not expected that any secondary market will develop for the shares. Shareholders will not be able to tender for repurchase their shares on a daily basis. At the discretion of the fund’s board of trustees, and provided that it is in the best interests of the fund and shareholders to do so, the fund intends to provide a limited degree of liquidity to shareholders by conducting repurchase offers, generally quarterly.

Private Funds
Certain of the Federated Hermes Private Funds (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), for example portfolios of the Federated Hermes Core Trust and Federated Hermes Core Trust III, but are not available for sale to the public or other eligible investors. Although the Project and Trade Finance Core Fund, a portfolio of Federated Hermes Core Trust III, is registered under the 1940 Act, it is not a mutual fund, and operates as an “extended redemption” fund. Additionally, interests in the Funds (“Interests”) have not and will not be registered for public offer or sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or with any state regulator. Interests are being offered and sold exclusively to U.S. persons that are “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act (“Regulation D”), which may include (i) “qualified purchasers,” as defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the 1940 Act, and the rules thereunder; or (ii) “knowledgeable employees” as defined in Rule 3c-5(a)(4) under the 1940 Act. The information provided on the website is not intended for any person or entity in any U.S. state or country where such use would be contrary to law or regulation.
Fund shares are bought and sold on an exchange at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. However, shares may be redeemed at NAV directly by certain authorized broker-dealers (Authorized Participants) in very large creation/redemption units. The returns shown do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Market price returns are based on the official closing price of an ETF share or, if the official closing price isn't available, the midpoint between the national best bid and national best offer ("NBBO") as of the time the ETF calculates the current NAV per share. NAVs are calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time.
