Dear Sir or Madam:

In accordance with Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, on behalf of the Registrant, I hereby submit this application for withdrawal of the Registrant's Amendment to its Registration Statement filed pursuant to Rule 486(a) under the Securities Act of 1933 on Form N-2 on July 29, 2022, under Accession Number 0001623632-22-000944 (the "Amended Registration Statement"), the automatic effective date of which was subsequently delayed pursuant to Delaying Amendments. The most recent Delaying Amendment was filed on March 9, 2023, under Accession Number 0001623632-23-000392.

The Amended Registration Statement proposed the addition of a new share class (i.e., Service Shares), to the Registrant and the re-designation of the Registrant's existing class of shares, which are currently designated as Common Shares, as "Institutional Shares" in connection with the implementation of the Registrant's new multi-class structure.

The Registrant is making this application for withdrawal of the Amended Registration Statement because Federated Investment Management Company, the investment adviser to the Registrant, has determined not to proceed at this time with the changes contemplated by the Amended Registration Statement but may refile an amended registration in the future to pursue the addition of a new share class.

It is our opinion that the withdrawal of the Amended Registration Statement would be consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors. No filing fee was required or paid in connection with the filing of the Amended Registration Statement.

We, therefore, respectfully request, pursuant to Rule 477 of the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities and Exchange Commission to withdraw the above-referenced Amended Registration Statement.

If you have any questions regarding this application for withdrawal, please contact Mark Thompson at (412) 288-4429 or Mark.Thompson@FederatedHermes.com.

Very truly yours,

/s/ George F. Magera<br> George F. Magera<br> Assistant Secretary
