Explanation of Responses:

1. The reported securities are held by Fairview Partners, L.P., a limited partnership of which 713 Investment Corp. is the sole general partner ("Fairview"). Mr. McGonigle and his wife are shareholders and directors of 713 Investment Corp. On December 15, 2014, Fairview contributed Federated Investors, Inc. Class B Common Stock to an exchange fund in exchange for shares of the exchange fund. The Federated Investors, Inc. Class B Common Stock was valued at $31.70 per share for the purpose of determining the number of shares of the exchange fund issuable to Fairview. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Federated Investors, Inc. Class B Common Stock held by Fairview except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
