                    OPPENHEIMER FUNDS MULTIPLE CLASS PLAN


             March 18, 1996 (as updated through October 22, 2002)

1.    The Plan.  This Plan is the written  multiple class plan for each of (i)
the  open-end  management   investment   companies  and  (ii)  the  closed-end
management  investment  company or companies  permitted by exemptive  order to
offer  multiple  classes of shares on the  proviso  that they  comply with the
Rule (as defined below)  (individually a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds"),
named on Exhibit A hereto,  which  exhibit  may be revised  from time to time,
for  OppenheimerFunds  Distributor,  Inc.  (the  "Distributor"),  the  general
distributor  of  shares  of the  Funds  and for  OppenheimerFunds,  Inc.  (the
"Advisor"),  the  investment  advisor of the Funds.1 In  instances  where such
investment   companies  issue  shares  representing   interests  in  different
portfolios  ("Series"),  the term "Fund" and "Funds" shall separately refer to
each  Series.  This Plan is the written plan  contemplated  by Rule 18f-3 (the
"Rule") under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"),  pursuant
to which the  Funds  may  issue  multiple  classes  of  shares.  The terms and
provisions  of  this  Plan  shall  be  interpreted  and  defined  in a  manner
consistent with the provisions and definitions contained in the Rule.

2.    Similarities  and Differences  Among Classes.  Each Fund offering shares
of more than one class agrees that each class of that Fund:

(1)(i) shall have any service plan or distribution and service plan ("12b-1
Plan") apply  separately to any class whose shares are subject to such Plan, and
such class shall pay all of the expenses  incurred pursuant to that arrangement;
and (ii)  may pay a  different  share of  expenses  ("Class  Expenses")  if such
expenses are actually  incurred in a different  amount by that class,  or if the
class receives  services of a different kind or to a different  degree than that
of other classes. Class Expenses are those expenses specifically attributable to
the  particular  class of shares,  namely (a) 12b-1 Plan fees,  (b) transfer and
shareholder   servicing  agent  fees  and   administrative   service  fees,  (c)
shareholder  meeting expenses,  (d) SEC registration fees for Funds organized as
corporations and (e) any other incremental expenses subsequently identified that
should be  allocated  to one class  which  shall be  approved  by a vote of that
Fund's Board of  Directors,  Trustees or Managers  (the  "Directors").  Expenses
identified  in Items (c)  through (e) may involve  issues  relating  either to a
specific class or to the entire Fund;  such expenses  constitute  Class Expenses
only when they are attributable to a specific class.  Because Class Expenses may
be  accrued  at  different  rates  for each  class of a single  Fund,  dividends
distributable  to  shareholders  and net asset  values  per share may differ for
shares of different classes of the same Fund.



-------------
1. For Centennial  Money Market Trust,  Centennial  Asset  Management Corp. is
substituted as the "Distributor" and the "Advisor".

(2) shall have  exclusive  voting  rights on any matters that relate solely to
that class's  arrangements,  including without  limitation voting with respect
to a 12b-1 Plan for that class;

(3) shall have separate voting rights on any matter  submitted to shareholders
in which the  interests  of one class  differ from the  interests of any other
class;

(4) may have a  different  arrangement  for  shareholder  services,  including
different sales charges,  redemption fees, sales charge waivers,  purchase and
redemption features,  exchange privileges,  loan privileges,  the availability
of certificated shares and/or conversion features; and

(5) shall have in all other  respects the same rights and  obligations as each
other class.

3.    Allocations  of  Income,  Capital  Gains and Losses  and  Expenses.  The
methodologies  and  procedures for  allocating  expenses,  as set forth in the
most current version of the report captioned  "Methodology for Net Asset Value
(NAV) and Dividend and Distribution  Determinations for Oppenheimer Funds with
Multiple Classes of Shares" are re-approved.  Income,  realized and unrealized
capital gains and losses,  and expenses of each Fund other than Class Expenses
allocated to a particular  class shall be allocated to each class on the basis
of the net asset  value of that class in  relation  to the net asset  value of
that Fund,  except as follows:  For Funds  operating under 1940 Act Rule 2a-7,
and for other Funds that declare  dividends  from net  investment  income on a
daily  basis,  such  allocations  shall be made on the basis of  relative  net
assets  (settled  shares)  [net assets  valued in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  but  excluding  the  value of  subscriptions
receivable] in relation to the net assets of that Fund.

4.    Expense  Waivers  and  Reimbursements.  From time to time the Advisor or
the Fund's transfer and shareholder  servicing agent may voluntarily undertake
to  (i)  waive  any  portion  of  the  management  fee  and/or   transfer  and
shareholder  servicing agent fees charged to a Fund, and/or (ii) reimburse any
portion of the  expenses  of a Fund or of one or more of its  classes,  but is
not  required  to do so or to  continue  to do so for any period of time.  The
Advisor  shall  provide a quarterly  report to the  Directors  of Fund expense
reimbursements  to  disclose  any  reimbursements  that are not  equal for all
classes of the same Fund.

5.    Conversions of Shares.  Any Fund may offer a conversion  feature whereby
shares of one class  ("Purchase  Class Shares") will convert  automatically to
shares of another  class  ("Target  Class  Shares") of that Fund,  after being
held for a requisite  period  ("Matured  Purchase Class Shares"),  pursuant to
the terms  and  conditions  of that  Fund's  Prospectus  and/or  Statement  of
Additional  Information.  Such terms and  conditions may provide for that time
period to vary for Purchase  Class Shares (i) afforded  different  shareholder
privileges or other  features,  (ii) issued by different  Funds,  and/or (iii)
issued on different  dates.  Upon conversion of Matured Purchase Class Shares,
all Purchase Class Shares of that Fund acquired by  reinvestment  of dividends
or  distributions  of  such  Matured  Purchase  Class  Shares  shall  also  be
converted at that time.  Purchase  Class Shares will convert into Target Class
Shares of that Fund on the basis of the  relative  net asset values of the two
classes,  without the imposition of any sales load,  fee or other charge.  The
conversion  feature  shall be offered for so long as (i) the expenses to which
Target  Class  Shares of a Fund are  subject,  including  payments  authorized
under that Fund's  Target  Class 12b-1 plan,  are not higher than the expenses
of Purchase Class Shares of that Fund,  including  payments  authorized  under
that Fund's  Purchase Class 12b-1 plan; (ii) there continues to be available a
ruling from the Internal  Revenue Service  ("IRS") revenue  procedure or other
IRS  ruling or  regulation,  or an  opinion  of counsel or of an opinion of an
auditing  firm serving as tax adviser,  to the effect that the  conversion  of
Purchase  Class Shares to Target  Class  Shares does not  constitute a taxable
event for the holder;  and (iii) if  shareholders  of Target Class Shares of a
Fund, but not shareholders of Purchase Class Shares of that Fund,  approve any
increase in expenses  allocated to the Target Class for  shareholder  services
or distribution  (including payments authorized under that Fund's Target Class
12b-1  plan),  that Fund will  establish  a new class of shares  ("New  Target
Class  Shares")  and shall take such other  action as is  necessary to provide
that  existing  Purchase  Class Shares are  exchanged  or  converted  into New
Target  Class  Shares,  identical  in all  material  respects to Target  Class
Shares as they  existed  prior to  implementation  of the proposal to increase
expenses,  no later than the date such shares  previously  were  scheduled  to
convert into Target Class Shares.

6.    Disclosure.  The  classes of shares to be offered by each Fund,  and the
initial,  asset-based or contingent  deferred sales charges and other material
distribution  arrangements with respect to such classes, shall be disclosed in
the prospectus  and/or statement of additional  information used to offer that
class of shares.  Such  prospectus  or  statement  of  additional  information
shall be  supplemented  or  amended  to reflect  any  change(s)  in classes of
shares  to be  offered  or in  the  material  distribution  arrangements  with
respect to such classes.

7.    Independent  Audit.  The  methodology and procedures for calculating the
net asset value,  dividends and  distributions of each class shall be reviewed
by an  independent  auditing  firm  (the  "Expert").  At least  annually,  the
Expert,  or an  appropriate  substitute  expert,  will  render a report to the
Funds on policies and  procedures  placed in operation  and tests of operating
effectiveness as defined and described in SAS 70 of the AICPA.

8.    Offers and Sales of Shares.  The  Distributor  will maintain  compliance
standards  as to when  each  class  of  shares  may  appropriately  be sold to
particular  investors,  and will  require  all persons  selling  shares of the
Funds to agree to conform to such standards.

9. Rule 12b-1  Payments.  The  Treasurer of each Fund shall  provide to the
Directors of that Fund, and the Directors shall review, at least quarterly,  the
written  report  required by that Fund's  12b-1 Plan,  if any.  The report shall
include information on (i) the amounts expended pursuant to the 12b-1 Plan, (ii)
the purposes for which such  expenditures  were made and (iii) the amount of the
Distributor's  unreimbursed  distribution  costs (if  recovery  of such costs in
future periods is permitted by that 12b-1 Plan),  taking into account 12b-1 Plan
payments and  contingent  deferred  sales charges paid to the  Distributor.

10. Conflicts. On an ongoing basis, the Directors of the Funds, pursuant to
their fiduciary  responsibilities under the 1940 Act and otherwise, will monitor
the Funds for the existence of any material conflicts among the interests of the
classes.  The Advisor and the Distributor  will be responsible for reporting any
potential  or  existing  conflicts  to the  Directors.  In the event a  conflict
arises, the Directors shall take such action as they deem appropriate.

11. Effectiveness and Amendment. This Plan takes effect for each Fund as of
the date of adoption shown below for that Fund, whereupon the open-end Funds are
released from the terms and conditions  contained in their respective  exemptive
applications pursuant to which orders were issued exempting the respective Funds
from the provisions of Sections 2(a)(32),  2(a)(35),  18(f), 18(g), 18(i), 22(c)
and 22(d) of the 1940 Act and Rule 22c-1  thereunder,  or from their  respective
previous multiple class plan.2 This Plan has been approved by a majority vote of
the Board of each Fund and of each Fund's Board members who are not  "interested
persons"  (as  defined  in the  1940  Act) and who have no  direct  or  indirect
financial  interest in the operation of the Plan or any  agreements  relating to
the Plan (the  "Independent  Trustees")  of each  Fund at  meetings  called  for
Oppenheimer Funds listed on Exhibit A, in each case for the purpose of voting on
this Plan. Prior to that vote, (i) each Board was furnished with the methodology
used for net asset value and dividend and  distribution  determinations  for the
Funds, and (ii) majority of each Board and its Independent  Trustees  determined
that the Plan as proposed to be adopted, including the expense allocation, is in
the best  interests  of each  Fund as a whole  and to each  class  of each  Fund
individually.  Thereafter,  this Plan has been  approved at least  annually by a
majority  of each  Board of the  Oppenheimer  Funds  listed on Exhibit A hereto,
including a majority  of the  Independent  Trustees of such Funds.  Prior to any
material  amendment to the Plan, each Board shall request and evaluate,  and the
Distributor  shall furnish,  such information as may be reasonably  necessary to
evaluate  such  amendment,  and a  majority  of each  Board and its  Independent
Trustees  shall find that the Plan as  proposed  to be  amended,  including  the
expense allocation,  is in the best interest of each class, each Fund as a whole
and each class of each Fund  individually.  No  material  amendment  to the Plan
shall be made by any Fund's Prospectus or Statement of Additional Information or
an supplement to either of the  foregoing,  unless such amendment has first been
approved by a majority of the Fund's Board and its Independent Trustees.

Rochester  Oppenheimer  Funds on January 10, 1996, by the  Connecticut  Mutual
Oppenheimer  Funds on February  26, 1996,  to take effect March 18, 1996,  and
were subsequently  adopted by each Oppenheimer Fund that commenced  operations
after that date of approval,  as of the  commencement of operation of that new
fund.


12.   Disclaimer  of  Shareholder  and  Trustee  Liability.   The  Distributor
understands  that  the  obligations  under  this  Plan  of each  Fund  that is
organized as a  Massachusetts  business trust are not binding upon any Trustee
or  shareholder  of such  Fund  personally,  but bind  only  that Fund and the
Fund's  property.  The  Distributor  represents  that  it  has  notice  of the
provisions of the Declarations of Trust of such Funds disclaiming  shareholder
and Trustee liability for acts or obligations of the Funds.
