         This Amendment Number 2 is made as of August 10, 2005 to the Amended

         WHEREAS, the Trustees established Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund
as a trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts under a
Declaration of Trust dated May 7, 1996, as amended and restated as of December
14, 2000 (the "Declaration of Trust");

         WHEREAS, the Trustees, acting pursuant to paragraph 12 of Article
NINTH, of the Declaration of Trust, further amended the Declaration of Trust as
of September 26, 2002;

         WHEREAS, the Trustees, pursuant to Parts 1, 2 and 3 of Article FOURTH,
of the Declaration of Trust, have determined that it is advisable to establish
and designate an additional class of Shares to the Fund;

         NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to Parts 1, 2 and 3 of Article FOURTH and
paragraph 12 of Article NINTH, of the Declaration of Trust, the Declaration of
Trust is supplemented and amended as follows:


         Article FOURTH Part 2 of the Declaration of Trust is amended by
deleting the second paragraph of said Part 2 and replacing it with the following
paragraph:

                  "The relative rights and preferences Class A Shares, Class B
         Shares, Class C Shares, Class N Shares and Class Y Shares shall be the
         same in all respects except that, and unless and until the Board of
         Trustees shall determine otherwise: (i) when a vote of Shareholders is
         required under this Declaration of Trust or when a meeting of
         Shareholders is called by the Board of Trustees, the Shares of a Class
         shall vote exclusively on matters that affect that Class only; (ii) the
         expenses and liabilities related to a Class shall be borne solely by
         such Class (as determined and allocated to such Class by the Trustees
         from time to time in a manner consistent with Parts 2 and 3 of Article
         FOURTH); and (iii) pursuant to paragraph 10 of Article NINTH, the
         Shares of each Class shall have such other rights and preferences as
         are set forth from time to time in the then effective prospectus and/or
         statement of additional information relating to the Shares. Dividends
         and distributions on the Class A, Class B and Class C, Class N and
         Class Y Shares may differ from the dividends and distributions on any
         other such Class, and the net asset value of Class A, Class B, Class C,
         Class N and Class Y Shares may differ from the net asset value of any
         other such Class."


         Article FOURTH Part 3 of the Declaration of Trust is amended by
deleting the first paragraph of said Part 3 and replacing it with the following
paragraph:

                  "3. Without limiting the authority of the Trustees set forth
         in Part 1 of this Article FOURTH to establish and designate any further
         Series, the Trustees hereby establish one Series of Shares having the
         same name as the Trust, and said Shares shall be divided into five
         Classes, which shall be designated Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N
         and Class Y Shares. The Shares of that Series and any Shares of any
         further Series or Classes that may from time to time be established and
         designated by the Trustees shall (unless the Trustees otherwise
         determine with respect to some further Series or Classes at the time of
         establishing and designating the same) have the following relative
         rights and preferences:"

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has signed this instrument and has
caused it to be lodged among the records of the Fund on August 10, 2005.
