Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

The investment objective, the principal investment policies and the main
risks of the Fund are described in the Prospectus. This Statement of Additional
Information contains supplemental information about those policies and risks as
well as information about any non-principal investment policies and the
attendant risks not described in the prospectus and the types of securities that
the Fund's investment Manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., can select for the Fund.
Additional information is also provided about the strategies that the Fund can
use to try to achieve its objective.

The Fund's Investment Policies. The composition of the Fund's portfolio and the
techniques and strategies that the Fund's Manager can use in selecting portfolio
securities will vary over time. The "Warranty Period" began August 5, 2003 and
will end August 5, 2010 or the next following business day (the "Maturity
Date")). The investment objective of the Fund during the Warranty Period is to
seek capital preservation in order to attempt to make sure that the value of
each shareholder's account on the Maturity Date will be no less than the value
of that shareholder's account on the last day of the Offering Period, less sales
charges, extraordinary expenses and other amounts not covered by the "Warranty
Agreement" (the "Warranty Amount"). The Fund seeks high total return as a
secondary objective. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its
objective. The Fund's investment objective during the "Post-Warranty Period,"
the period immediately following the Maturity Date, is high total return. This
section supplements the disclosure in the Fund's Prospectus and provides
additional information on the Fund's investment policies or restrictions to the
extent permitted under the Financial Warranty Agreement, dated May 29, 2003 (the
"Warranty Agreement"), among the Fund, the Manager and Merrill Lynch Bank USA.
Restrictions or policies stated as a maximum percentage of the Fund's assets are
only applied immediately after a portfolio investment to which the policy or
restriction is applicable (other than the limitations on borrowing and illiquid
securities). Accordingly, any later increase or decrease resulting from a change
in values, net assets or other circumstances will not be considered in
determining whether the investment complies with the Fund's restrictions and
policies.

Under normal market conditions, during the Warranty Period the Fund's
assets are allocated between an equity component, consisting exclusively of
Class Y shares of the Oppenheimer Main Street Fund (the "Underlying Fund"), and
a fixed income component, normally consisting primarily of zero-coupon U.S.
government securities. However, as explained more fully in the prospectus, under
certain circumstances, the Fund's assets may be invested primarily or even
exclusively in U.S. government securities.

Merrill Lynch Bank USA ("MLBUSA" or the "Warranty Provider") is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. MLBUSA is licensed as an
industrial loan corporation pursuant to the laws of the State of Utah. MLBUSA is
regulated by certain Federal and state agencies and is examined by those
agencies. MLBUSA may hedge its risks under the Warranty Agreement with one or
more counterparties, including with an affiliate of MLBUSA (which may include
the calculation agent under the Warranty Agreement). MLBUSA is not required to
hedge its risk under the Warranty Agreement and may choose not to do so. Whether
MLBUSA attempts to hedge its risk under the Warranty Agreement or not, it is the
sole entity responsible for making payments to the Fund, if any, under the
Warranty Agreement.

The Asset Allocation Process. In pursuing the Fund's investment objective during
the Warranty Period, the Manager allocated the Fund's assets between the equity
and fixed income components of the portfolio. The Fund did not employ an asset
allocation model during the Offering Period and will not do so during the
Post-Warranty Period.

The prevailing level of interest rates and the volatility of the equity
markets will significantly influence the initial allocation of Fund assets
between equity and fixed income securities. At the date of this Statement of
Additional Information, interest rates remain at historically low levels and the
equity markets continue to experience above normal volatility, both of which are
factors that may result in the mathematical formula allocating a high portion of
the Fund's assets to fixed income securities. The Manager will monitor the
allocation of the Fund's assets on a daily basis.

The asset allocation process will also be affected by the Manager's
ability to manage the Underlying Fund. If the market value of the Underlying
Fund increases, a smaller portion of the Fund's assets would be allocated to the
debt portfolio. On the other hand, if the market value of the Underlying Fund
decreases, a higher portion of the Fund's assets would have to be allocated to
the debt portfolio, and the ability of the Fund to participate in any subsequent
upward movement in the equity market would be reduced.

The Warranty Agreement contains a mathematical formula which provides the
maximum amount of the Fund's assets that may be invested in the equity portfolio
on any given day during the Warranty Period. That percentage allocation to the
equity portfolio can be as high as 100% and as low as zero. Accordingly, the
Warranty Agreement could limit the way that the Manager manages the Fund during
the Warranty Period in response to changing market conditions.

In allocating the Fund's assets between equity and fixed income
securities, the Manager will base its decision on the formula set forth in the
Warranty Agreement. The formula will help establish both the initial allocation
of the Fund's assets and on a daily basis will reevaluate the Fund's then
maximum permitted allocation in the equity component. The objective of the
formula is to preserve the principal of the Fund, primarily through allocations
to the fixed income securities. The formula takes into account a number of
factors, including, but not limited to:
o The market value of the Fund's assets as compared to the Warranty Amount;
o The prevailing level of interest rates; o Equity market volatility; and
o The length of time remaining until the Maturity Date.

The model may allocate between 0% to 100% of the Fund's assets to equity
securities. However, initially a significant portion of the Fund's assets will
be allocated to fixed income securities. It is also possible that 100% of the
Fund's assets will be allocated to the debt portfolio during the Warranty
Period.

The basic terms of the asset allocation model were determined prior to the
Fund entering into the Warranty Agreement with MLBUSA. MLBUSA reviewed the asset
allocation model in determining whether it was prepared to offer the Financial
Warranty to the Fund and negotiated some modifications to manage its financial
risk. MLBUSA has no right to require any modification to the structure of the
asset allocation formula during the Warranty Period, but has discretion in
certain limited circumstances to adjust certain variables in the formula.
Because the model impacts MLBUSA's financial exposure, MLBUSA has a right to
approve any changes that the Fund wishes to make to the model during the
Warranty Period. MLBUSA has informational rights regarding the model's
allocation and the Fund's portfolio during the Warranty Period, but these rights
are intended to enable MLBUSA to monitor its financial exposure. Under the terms
of the Warranty Agreement, the Fund is subject to certain investment parameters
during the Warranty Period. The Fund has also agreed to be bound by various
covenants. If the Fund's assets are not managed in accordance with the
parameters set forth in the Warranty Agreement or if the Fund breaches these
covenants, the Fund's assets could be allocated entirely to the fixed income
portfolio for the remainder of the Warranty Period, or MLBUSA may terminate the
Warranty Agreement.

The Financial Warranty. The prospectus contains a detailed description of the
Warranty Agreement. The "Financial Warranty" that the Warranty Provider issues
is a contractual obligation to make a payment to the Fund in the event there is
a Shortfall between the Warranty Amount and the then-current net asset value of
the Fund on the Maturity Date ("Shortfall"). The Financial Warranty is not a
guarantee and therefore the availability of the Financial Warranty on the
Maturity Date will be conditioned upon the Manager and the Fund satisfying their
respective obligations under the Warranty Agreement. Should the Fund and/or the
Manager fail to satisfy their respective obligations under the Warranty
Agreement, the Warranty Provider is permitted to terminate the Financial
Warranty and thus terminate its obligation, if any, to make any payment to the
Fund on the Maturity Date. Shareholders also bear the risk that the Warranty
Provider will become insolvent or otherwise fail to or become unable to satisfy
its payment obligation to the Fund, if any, under the Financial Warranty. If
either event were to occur, shareholders' investment in the Fund would no longer
be protected by the Financial Warranty which means their shares may be worth
less than their anticipated Warranty Amount. The Fund's Board of Trustees will
periodically review the financial statements of the Warranty Provider. In the
event that the financial condition of the Bank has deteriorated beyond certain
thresholds, the Trustees will determine whether there is a substantial
likelihood that the Warranty Provider will be unable to satisfy its obligations
under the Warranty Agreement. Under such circumstances the Board may, but is not
obligated to, replace the Warranty Provider.

In the event the Manager acts with negligence, recklessness, bad faith,
willful misconduct or fraud and the Fund's net asset value is below a set limit,
the Manager will be required to make a payment under the Warranty Agreement in
an amount equal to the amount of any reduction in the Fund's net asset value
below a set limit that is directly or indirectly attributable to the Manager's
conduct. Additionally, in the event the Manager is required to allocate the
Fund's assets to the debt portfolio and fails to do so and such failure results
in the Fund's net asset value falling below a set limit, the Manager will be
required to pay to the Warranty Provider an amount equal to the shortfall due to
the Fund's assets not being so invested. In the event the Manager fails to make
any such payment, deliver a notice of objection, or pay such amount into an
escrow account to the Warranty Provider within five business days, then the
Warranty Provider may terminate the Financial Warranty. The Warranty Provider
may also terminate the Financial Warranty for other reasons, as discussed in the
Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information.

The Warranty Agreement imposes certain conditions and requirements on the
Fund and the Manager. Failure to satisfy those conditions and requirements,
which are described in detail in the Prospectus, gives the Warranty Provider the
ability to (i) reduce the amount of the Fund's assets invested in shares of the
Underlying Fund, (ii) require 100% of the Fund's assets to be invested in U.S.
government securities, or (iii) terminate the Warranty Agreement, depending on
the condition or requirement. The Manager will monitor the various conditions
and requirements of the Warranty Agreement on a daily basis to ensure that the
Fund and the Manager satisfy those conditions and requirements. In certain
circumstances, the Warranty Agreement provides that in the case of certain
deficiencies, the Fund may have a specified period of time to cure the
deficiency. In the case of other deficiencies, the Warranty Provider has the
right, in its sole discretion, to either direct the Manager to allocate all of
the Fund's assets to the debt portfolio, deliver to the Fund's Custodian
pre-signed instructions from the Manager instructing the Custodian to
immediately allocate all of the Fund's assets to the debt portfolio or change
one of the variables in the formula which would have the effect of increasing
the portion of the Fund's assets allocated to the debt portfolio or in certain
circumstances terminate the Warranty Agreement. The Warranty Provider will rely
on the Manager as well as on the Fund's Custodian bank for the information
necessary to monitor the Fund's and/or the Manager's compliance with the terms
of the Warranty Agreement. The attendant risks to the Fund and shareholders are
if the Manager or the Custodian bank fail to provide the information required by
the Warranty Agreement, in which case the Warranty Provider may require the Fund
to invest exclusively in U.S. government securities.

On the Maturity Date, if there is a shortfall between the Warranted Amount
and the Fund's then-current net asset value, the Warranty Provider will be
required to make a payment to the Fund in the amount of the shortfall. The
Shortfall amount will be determined per class of shares and then the specific
shortfall amount per class of shares will be allocated to the respective class.
Once the dollar amount of shortfall is allocated per class, that amount will
then be divided evenly among the outstanding shares of the class to apply on a
shareholder basis. The Fund will then provide those shareholders who redeem
their Fund shares on the Maturity Date with their respective Warranty Amount.

During the Warranty Period, the Fund may purchase securities or engage in
investment techniques set forth in the following sections.

|X| Investments in Equity Securities. The Fund's investments in equity
securities will consist exclusively of Class Y shares of the Oppenheimer Main
Street Fund (the "Underlying Fund"). The Underlying Fund does not limit its
investments in equity securities to issuers having a market capitalization of a
specified size or range, and therefore can invest in securities of small-, mid-
and large-capitalization issuers. At times, the Underlying Fund can focus its
equity investments in securities of one or more capitalization ranges, based
upon the Manager's judgment of where the best market opportunities are to seek
the Underlying Fund's objective. At times, the market may favor or disfavor
securities of issuers of a particular capitalization range. Securities of small
capitalization issuers may be subject to greater price volatility in general
than securities of larger companies. Therefore, if the Underlying Fund is
focusing on or has substantial investments in smaller capitalization companies
at times of market volatility, the Underlying Fund's share prices may fluctuate
more than that of funds focusing on larger capitalization issuers. Further
information about the Underlying Fund is included under "Information About the
Underlying Fund" in Appendix C to this Statement of Additional Information. The
Underlying Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information describe in
detail the Underlying Fund's investment policies, risks, management, investment
restrictions, strategies and types of securities in which it may invest, and
contains other information about the Underlying Fund. The Prospectus, Statement
of Additional Information and annual and semi-annual reports of the Underlying
Fund are available without charge upon request by calling 1.800.525.7048.

|X| Investments in Bonds and Other Debt Securities. The Fund will invest
in U.S. government securities to seek its investment objective. In general, debt
securities are also subject to two types of risk: credit risk and interest rate
risk.

o Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet
interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The fixed income
component of the Fund's portfolio consist of U.S. government securities. U.S.
government securities, although unrated, are generally considered to be
equivalent to securities in the highest rating categories. Investment-grade
bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or at
least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Rating Service or Fitch, Inc., or that have
comparable ratings by another nationally-recognized rating organization.

o Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in
value of debt securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price
and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to
reduce the market value of already-issued debt securities, and a decline in
general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt
securities having longer maturities tend to offer higher yields, but are subject
to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than
obligations having shorter maturities.

Fluctuations in the market value of debt securities after the Fund buys
them will not affect the interest income payable on those securities (unless the
security pays interest at a variable rate pegged to interest rate changes).
However, those price fluctuations will be reflected in the valuations of the
securities, and therefore the Fund's net asset values will be affected by those
fluctuations.

|X| U.S. Government Securities. U.S. government securities the Fund buys
will include non-callable general obligations of the U.S. Treasury backed by the
full faith and credit of the U.S. government or of any of the following U.S.
government agencies: Federal National Mortgage Association, Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, Federal Home Loan Bank, Resolution Funding Corporation,
Financing Corporation and Tennessee Valley Authority, provided such securities
are rated no less than "AAA" by Standard & Poor's Rating Services or "Aaa" by
Moody's Investors Service, Inc.

o U.S. Treasury Obligations. These include Treasury bills (which have
maturities of one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (which have
maturities of more than one year and up to ten years when issued), and Treasury
bonds (which have maturities of more than ten years when issued). Treasury
securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States as to
timely payments of interest and repayments of principal. Other U.S. Treasury
obligations the Fund can buy include U. S. Treasury securities that have been
"stripped" by a Federal Reserve Bank, zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities
described below.

o Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
Instrumentalities. These include direct obligations and mortgage-related
securities that have different levels of credit support from the government. The
Fund may invest in, Government National Mortgage Association pass-through
mortgage certificates (called "Ginnie Maes"), which are supported by the full
faith and credit of the U.S. government .

|X| Zero-Coupon Securities. The Fund can buy zero-coupon and
delayed-interest securities. The Fund can buy U.S. Treasury notes or bonds that
have been stripped of their interest coupons, and U.S. Treasury bills issued
without interest coupons, and certificates representing interests in stripped
securities.

Zero-coupon securities do not make periodic interest payments and are sold
at a deep discount from their face value. The buyer recognizes a rate of return
determined by the gradual appreciation of the security, which is redeemed at
face value on a specified maturity date. This discount depends on the time
remaining until maturity, as well as prevailing interest rates, the liquidity of
the security and the credit quality of the issuer. The discount typically
decreases as the maturity date approaches. Some zero-coupon securities are
convertible, in that they are zero-coupon securities until a predetermined date,
at which time they convert to a security with a specified coupon rate.

Because zero-coupon securities pay no interest and compound semi-annually
at the rate fixed at the time of their issuance, their value is generally more
volatile than the value of other debt securities. Their value may fall more
dramatically than the value of interest-bearing securities when interest rates
rise. When prevailing interest rates fall, zero-coupon securities tend to rise
more rapidly in value because they have a fixed rate of return.

The Fund's investment in zero-coupon securities may cause the Fund to
recognize income and make distributions to shareholders before it receives any
cash payments on the zero-coupon investment. To generate cash to satisfy those
distribution requirements, the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities that
it otherwise might have continued to hold or to use cash flows from other
sources such as the sale of Fund shares.

|X| Money Market Instruments. The following is a brief description of the
types of the U.S. dollar denominated money market securities the Fund can invest
in. Money market securities are high-quality, short-term debt instruments that
may be issued by the U.S. government, corporations, banks or other entities.
They may have fixed, variable or floating interest rates. During the Offering
Period the Fund invested its assets in:

o U.S. Government Securities. These include obligations issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities,
described above.

o Bank Obligations. The Fund can buy time deposits, certificates of
deposit and bankers' acceptances. They must be:
o obligations issued or guaranteed by a domestic bank (including
a foreign branch of a domestic bank) having total assets of at least U.S.
$1 billion, or
o obligations of a foreign bank with total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion.

"Banks" include commercial banks, savings banks and savings and loan
associations, which may or may not be members of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation.

o Commercial Paper. The Fund can invest in commercial paper if it is
rated within the top three rating categories of Standard & Poor's and Moody's or
other rating organizations.

If the paper is not rated, it may be purchased if the Manager determines
that it is comparable to rated commercial paper in the top three rating
categories of national rating organizations.

The Fund can buy commercial paper, including U.S. dollar-denominated
securities of foreign branches of U.S. banks, issued by other entities if the
commercial paper is guaranteed as to principal and interest by a bank,
government or corporation whose certificates of deposit or commercial paper may
otherwise be purchased by the Fund.

During the Warranty Period, the Fund may invest in bank deposits,
commercial paper and U.S. government securities (excluding U.S. government zero
coupon securities), having a remaining maturity of 90 days or less. The bank
deposits will include demand and time deposits in, certificates of deposit of,
and bankers' acceptances issued by, any U.S. depository institution or trust
company. The bank deposits and commercial paper must have a credit rating of at
least "P-1" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and at least "A-1" by Standard &
Poor's Rating Services, and the issuer thereof must have at the time of such
investment a long-term credit rating of at least "Aa3" by Moody's or at least
"AA" by S&P.

|X| Borrowing. The Fund may borrow for temporary or emergency purposes
only to the extent necessary in emergency situations to meet redemption requests
after using all cash held by the Fund to meet such redemption requests, other
than cash necessary to pay Fund fees and expenses. Currently, under the 1940
Act, a mutual fund may borrow only from banks and the maximum amount it may
borrow is up to one-third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed
less its liabilities, other than borrowings), except that a fund may borrow up
to 5% of its total assets for temporary purposes from any person. Under the 1940
Act, there is a rebuttable presumption that a loan is temporary if it is repaid
within 60 days and not extended or renewed. As a matter of fundamental policy,
the Fund is authorized to borrow up to the limits set forth in the 1940 Act.
During periods of substantial borrowings, the value of the Fund's assets would
be reduced due to the added expense of interest on borrowed monies. The Fund is
authorized to borrow, and to pledge assets to secure such borrowings, up to the
maximum extent permissible under the 1940 Act (i.e., presently 50% of net
assets). Any such borrowing will be made only pursuant to the requirements of
the 1940 Act and will be made only to the extent that the value of each Fund's
assets less its liabilities, other than borrowings, is equal to at least 300% of
all borrowings including the proposed borrowing. If the value of a Fund's
assets, so computed, should fail to meet the 300% asset coverage requirement,
the Fund is required, within three days to reduce its bank debt to the extent
necessary to meet such requirement and may have to sell a portion of its
investments at a time when independent investment judgment would not dictate
such sale. Interest on money borrowed is an expense the Fund would not otherwise
incur, so that it may have little or no net investment income during periods of
substantial borrowings. Since substantially all of a Fund's assets fluctuate in
value, but borrowing obligations are fixed when the Fund has outstanding
borrowings, the net asset value per share of a Fund correspondingly will tend to
increase and decrease more when the Fund's assets increase or decrease in value
than would otherwise be the case.

The Fund will pay interest on these loans, and that interest expense
will raise the overall expenses of the Fund and reduce its returns. If it does
borrow, its expenses will be greater than comparable funds that do not borrow
for leverage. Additionally, the Fund's net asset value per share might fluctuate
more than that of funds that do not borrow. Currently, the Fund does not
contemplate using this technique, but if it does so, it will not likely do so to
a substantial degree.

|X| Portfolio Turnover. "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at which
the Fund traded its portfolio securities during its previous fiscal year. For
example, if a fund sold all of its securities during the year, its portfolio
turnover rate would have been 100%. The Fund's portfolio turnover rate will
fluctuate from year to year, and the Fund can have a portfolio turnover rate of
100% or more. Increased portfolio turnover creates higher brokerage and
transaction costs for the Fund, which may reduce its overall performance.
Additionally, the realization of capital gains from selling portfolio securities
may result in distributions of taxable long-term capital gains to shareholders,
since the Fund will normally distribute all of its capital gains realized each
year, to avoid excise taxes under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of the
Fund's dynamic asset allocation model, the Fund may have a higher portfolio
turnover rate than other mutual funds.

|X| Investment in Other Investment Companies. As stated above, the Fund
can invest in the Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Main Street Fund, subject to the
limits set forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company
Act") or any exemption therefrom that apply to those types of investments and
any percentage limit established, from time to time, by the asset allocation
formula described in the Warranty Agreement. Investing in another investment
company may involve the payment of substantial premiums above the value of such
investment company's portfolio securities and is subject to limitations under
the Investment Company Act. As a shareholder of an investment company, the Fund
will be subject to its ratable share of that investment company's expenses,
including its advisory and administration expenses.

Investment Restrictions

|X| What Are "Fundamental Policies?" Fundamental policies are those
policies that the Fund has adopted to govern its investments that can be changed
only by the vote of a "majority" of the Fund's outstanding voting securities.
Under the Investment Company Act, a "majority" vote is defined as the vote of
the holders of the lesser of:
o 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at a
shareholder meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding
shares are present or represented by proxy, or
o more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

The Fund's investment objective is a fundamental policy. Other policies
described in the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information are
"fundamental" only if they are identified as such. The Fund's Board of Trustees
can change non-fundamental policies without shareholder approval. However,
significant changes to investment policies will be described in supplements or
updates to the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information, as
appropriate. The Fund's most significant investment policies are described in
the Prospectus.

|X| Does the Fund Have Additional Fundamental Policies? The following
investment restrictions are fundamental policies of the Fund.

o The Fund cannot concentrate investments. That means it cannot invest 25%
or more of its total assets in any industry. However, there is no limitation on
investments in affiliated funds and obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities.

o The Fund cannot invest in commodities. However, the Fund can buy and sell any
of the hedging instruments permitted by any of its other policies. It does not
matter if the hedging instrument is considered to be a commodity or commodity
contract.

o The Fund cannot invest in real estate or in interests in real estate.
However, the Fund can purchase securities of issuers holding real estate or
interests in real estate (including securities of real estate investment
trusts).

o The Fund cannot underwrite securities of other companies. A permitted
exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the Securities Act
of 1933 when reselling any securities held in its own portfolio.

o The Fund cannot issue "senior securities," but this does not prohibit
certain investment activities for which assets of the Fund are designated as
segregated, or margin, collateral or escrow arrangements are established, to
cover the related obligations. Examples of those activities include borrowing
money, reverse repurchase agreements, delayed-delivery and when-issued
arrangements for portfolio securities transactions, and contracts to buy or sell
derivatives, hedging instruments, options or futures.

o The Fund cannot borrow money, except to the extent permitted under the
Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption
therefrom that is applicable to the Fund, as such statutes, rules or regulations
may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

o The Fund cannot make loans except (a) through lending of securities, (b)
through the purchase of debt instruments or similar evidences of indebtedness,
(c) through an interfund lending program with other affiliated funds, and (d)
through repurchase agreements.

o The Fund cannot buy securities issued or guaranteed by any one issuer if more
than 5% of its total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer or it
would then own more than 10% of that issuer's voting securities. This limit
applies to 75% of the Fund's total assets. The limit does not apply to
securities issued by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies or
instrumentalities, or securities of other affiliated investment companies.

Unless the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information states
that a percentage restriction applies on an ongoing basis, it applies only at
the time the Fund makes an investment. The Fund need not sell securities to meet
the percentage limits if the value of the investment increases in proportion to
the size of the Fund.

For purposes of the Fund's policy not to concentrate its investments as
described above, the Fund has adopted as a non-fundamental policy the industry
classifications set forth in Appendix B to this Statement of Additional
Information. The Fund does not intend to concentrate its investments in a group
of industries.

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History. The Fund is a "series" of Oppenheimer Principal
Protected Trust. That Trust is an open-end, management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust on January 17, 2003. The Fund is a
diversified mutual fund and commenced operations on May 30, 2003.

|X| Classes of Shares. The Trustees are authorized, without shareholder
approval, to create new series and classes of shares. The Trustees may
reclassify unissued shares of the Fund into additional series or classes of
shares. The Trustees also may divide or combine the shares of a class into a
greater or lesser number of shares without changing the proportionate beneficial
interest of a shareholder in the Fund. Shares do not have cumulative voting
rights or preemptive or subscription rights. Shares may be voted in person or by
proxy at shareholder meetings.

The Fund currently has four classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C
and Class N. All classes invest in the same investment portfolio. Only
retirement plans may purchase Class N shares. Each class of shares:
o has its own dividends and distributions,
o pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes,
o may have a different net asset value,
o may have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one class
are different from interests of another class, and o votes as a class on
matters that affect that class alone.

Shares are freely transferable, and each share of each class has one vote
at shareholder meetings, with fractional shares voting proportionally on matters
submitted to the vote of shareholders. Each share of the Fund represents an
interest in the Fund proportionately equal to the interest of each other share
of the same class.

|X| Meetings of Shareholders. As a Massachusetts business trust, the Fund
is not required to hold, and does not plan to hold, regular annual meetings of
shareholders, but may do so from time to time on important matters or when
required to do so by the Investment Company Act or other applicable law.
Shareholders have the right, upon the declaration in writing or vote of
two-thirds of the outstanding shares of the Fund, to remove a Trustee or to take
other action described in the Fund's Declaration of Trust.

The Trustees will call a meeting of shareholders to vote on the removal of
a Trustee upon the written request of the record holders of 10% of its
outstanding shares. If the Trustees receive a request from at least ten
shareholders stating that they wish to communicate with other shareholders to
request a meeting to remove a Trustee, the Trustees will then either make the
Fund's shareholder list available to the applicants or mail their communication
to all other shareholders at the applicants' expense. The shareholders making
the request must have been shareholders for at least six months and must hold
shares of the Fund valued at $25,000 or more or constituting at least 1% of the
Fund's outstanding shares. The Trustees may also take other action as permitted
by the Investment Company Act.

|X| Shareholder and Trustee Liability. The Trust's Declaration of Trust
contains an express disclaimer of shareholder or Trustee liability for the
Trust's obligations. It also provides for indemnification and reimbursement of
expenses out of the Trust's property for any shareholder held personally liable
for its obligations. The Declaration of Trust also states that upon request, the
Trust shall assume the defense of any claim made against a shareholder for any
act or obligation of a Fund and shall satisfy any judgment on that claim.
Massachusetts law permits a shareholder of a business trust (such as the Trust)
to be held personally liable as a "partner" under certain circumstances.
However, the risk that a Fund shareholder will incur financial loss from being
held liable as a "partner" of the Trust is limited to the relatively remote
circumstances in which the Trust would be unable to meet its obligations.

The Trust's contractual arrangements state that any person doing business
with the Trust and each Fund (and each shareholder of a Fund) agrees under its
Declaration of Trust to look solely to the assets of each series for
satisfaction of any claim or demand that may arise out of any dealings with that
series. Additionally, the Trustees shall have no personal liability to any such
person, to the extent permitted by law.

Board of Trustees and Oversight Committees. The Trust is governed by a Board of
Trustees, which is responsible for protecting the interests of shareholders
under Massachusetts law. The Trustees meet periodically throughout the year to
oversee the Trust's activities, review its performance, and review the actions
of the Manager.

The Board of Trustees has an Audit Committee and a Review Committee. The
Audit Committee is comprised solely of Independent Trustees. The members of the
Audit Committee are Edward L. Cameron (Chairman), William L. Armstrong, George
C. Bowen and Robert J. Malone. The Audit Committee held 6 meetings during the
fiscal year ended August 31, 2003. The Audit Committee furnishes the Board with
recommendations regarding the selection of the Trust's independent auditors.
Other main functions of the Audit Committee include, but are not limited to: (i)
reviewing the scope and results of financial statement audits and the audit fees
charged; (ii) reviewing reports from the Trust's independent auditors regarding
the Fund's internal accounting procedures and controls; (iii) review reports
from the Manager's Internal Audit Department; (iv) maintaining a separate line
of communication between the Fund's independent auditors and its Independent
Trustees; and (v) exercise all other functions outlined in the Audit Committee
Charter, including but not limited to reviewing the independence of the Fund's
independent auditors and the pre-approval of the performance by the Fund's
independent auditors of any non-audit service, including tax service, for the
Fund and the Manager and certain affiliates of the Manager.

The Audit Committee's functions include selecting and nominating, to the
full Board, nominees for election as Trustees, and selecting and nominating
Independent Trustees for election. The Audit Committee may, but need not,
consider the advice and recommendation of the Manager and its affiliates in
selecting nominees. The full Board elects new trustees except for those
instances when a shareholder vote is required.

To date, the Committee has been able to identify from its own resources an
ample number of qualified candidates. Nonetheless, shareholders may submit names
of individuals, accompanied by complete and properly supported resumes, for the
Audit Committee's consideration by mailing such information to the Committee in
care of the Trust. The Committee may consider such persons at such time as it
meets to consider possible nominees. The Committee, however, reserves sole
discretion to determine the candidates to present to the Board and/or
shareholders when it meets for the purpose considering potential nominees.

The members of the Review Committee are Jon S. Fossel (Chairman), Robert
G. Avis, Richard Grabish, Sam Freedman, Beverly Hamilton and F. William
Marshall, Jr. The Review Committee held 6 meetings during the fiscal period
ended August 31, 2003. Among other functions, the Review Committee reviews
reports and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the fees paid to the
Fund's transfer agent and the services provided to the Fund by the transfer
agent. The Review Committee also reviews the Fund's investment performance and
policies and procedures adopted by the Fund to comply with Investment Company
Act and other applicable law.

Trustees and Officers of the Fund. Except for Messrs. Murphy and Grabish,
each of the Trustees is an "Independent Trustee," as defined in the Investment
Company Act. Mr. Murphy is an "Interested Trustee," because he is affiliated
with the Manager by virtue of his positions as an officer and director of the
Manager, and as a shareholder of its parent company. Mr. Murphy was elected as a
Trustee of the Fund with the understanding that in the event he ceases to be the
chief executive officer of the Manager, he will resign as a trustee of the Fund
and the other Board II Funds (defined below) for which he is a trustee or
director. Mr. Grabish is an "Interested Trustee" because he is affiliated with
Centennial Asset Management Corporation (a wholly-owned investment advisory
subsidiary of the Manager), by virtue of his positions with A.G. Edwards &
Sons, Inc. and its affiliates (as described in his biography below), which is a
partial owner of the Manager's parent company.

The Trust's Trustees and officers and their positions held with the Fund
and length of service in such position(s) and their principal occupations and
business affiliations during the past five years are listed in the chart below.
The information for the Trustees also includes the dollar range of shares of the
Fund as well as the aggregate dollar range of shares beneficially owned in any
of the Oppenheimer funds overseen by the Trustees. All of the Trustees are also
trustees or directors of the following Oppenheimer funds (except for Ms.
Hamilton and Messrs. Grabish and Malone, who are not Trustees of Oppenheimer
Senior Floating Rate Fund (referred to as "Board II Funds"):

Oppenheimer Principal Protected
Oppenheimer Cash Reserves Trust II
Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund
Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate
Oppenheimer Capital Income Fund Fund
Oppenheimer Equity Fund, Inc. Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund

Present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and their
immediate family members) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates, and
retirement plans established by them for their employees are permitted to
purchase Class A shares of the Fund and the other Oppenheimer funds at net asset
value without sales charge. The sales charges on Class A shares is waived for
that group because of the economies of sales efforts realized by the
Distributor.

Messrs. Murphy, Manioudakis, Molleur, Vottiero, Winston, Wixted and Zack,
and Mses. Bechtolt, Feld and Ives who are officers of the Fund, respectively
hold the same offices with one or more of the other Board II Funds as with the
Fund. As of September 30, 2003, the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a
group, owned of record or beneficially less than 1% of each class of shares of
the Fund. The foregoing statement does not reflect ownership of shares held of
record by an employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the
shares beneficially owned under that plan by the officers of the Fund listed
above. In addition, each Independent Trustee, and his/her family members, do not
own securities of either the Manager or Distributor of the Board II Funds or any
person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control
with the Manager or Distributor.

|X| Affiliated Transactions and Material Business Relationships. In 2001,
Mr. Swain surrendered for cancellation 60,000 options of Oppenheimer Acquisition
Company ("OAC") (the Manager's parent holding company) to MassMutual for a cash
payment of $2,700,600.

Mr. Swain has reported that he sold a residential property to Mr. Freedman
on October 23, 2001 for $1.2 million. An independent appraisal of the property
supported the sale price.

The address of each Independent Trustee in the chart below is 6803 S.
Tucson Way, Centennial, CO 80112-3924. Each Trustee serves for an indefinite
term, until his or her resignation, retirement, death or removal.

Effective July 1, 2002, C. Howard Kast and Robert M. Kirchner retired as
Trustees from the Board II Funds. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2002,
Mr. Kast received $41,451 and Mr. Kirchner received $38,001 total compensation
from all of the Oppenheimer funds for which they served as Trustee.
1. Aggregate Compensation from Fund includes fees and deferred compensation, if
any, for a Trustee.
2. "Total Compensation From Fund and Fund Complex" paid to
Mr. Grabish was paid by Centennial Government Trust, Centennial California Tax
Exempt Trust, Centennial Money Market Trust, Centennial New York Tax Exempt
Trust, Centennial Tax Exempt Trust and Centennial America Fund, L.P. for service
as a Trustee during calendar year 2002. Mr. Grabish was appointed to the Review
Committee effective February 24, 2003 and was elected as a Trustee of all Board
II Funds (with the exception of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund) effective
October 27, 2003.
3. Includes $28 deferred under Deferred Compensation Plan described below.
4. Mrs. Hamilton and Mr. Malone were elected as Trustees of the Board II Funds
effective June 1, 2002. Compensation for Mrs. Hamilton and Mr. Malone was paid
by all the Board II Funds, with the exception of Oppenheimer Senior Floating
Rate Fund for which they currently do not serve as Trustees (total of 40
Oppenheimer funds at December 31, 2002).
5. Includes $55,333 compensation (of which 100% was deferred under a deferred
compensation plan) paid to Mrs. Hamilton for serving as a trustee by two
open-end investment companies (MassMutual Institutional Funds and MML Series
Investment Fund) the investment adviser for which is the indirect parent company
of the Fund's Manager. The Manager also serves as the Sub-Advisor to the
MassMutual International Equity Fund, a series of MassMutual Institutional Funds.
6. Includes $47,000 compensation paid to Mr. Marshall for serving as a trustee
by two open-end investment companies (MassMutual Institutional Funds and MML
Series Investment Fund) the investment adviser for which is the indirect parent
company of the Fund's Manager. The Manager also serves as the Sub-Advisor to the
MassMutual International Equity Fund, a series of MassMutual Institutional
Funds.
* For purposes of this section only, "Fund Complex" includes the Oppenheimer
funds, MassMutual Institutional Funds and MML Series Investment Fund in
accordance with the instructions for Form N-1A. The Manager does not consider
MassMutual Institutional Funds and MML Series Investment Fund to be part of the
OppenheimerFunds "Fund Complex" as that term may be otherwise interpreted.

|X| Deferred Compensation Plan for Trustees. The Board of Trustees has
adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for disinterested Trustees that enables
them to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual fees they are
entitled to receive from the Funds. Under the plan, the compensation deferred by
a Trustee is periodically adjusted as though an equivalent amount had been
invested in shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The
amount paid to the Trustee under the plan will be determined based upon the
performance of the selected funds.

Deferral of Trustee's fees under the plan will not materially affect the
Funds' assets, liabilities and net income per share. The plan will not obligate
the fund to retain the services of any Trustee or to pay any particular level of
compensation to any Trustee. Pursuant to an Order issued by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Funds may invest in the funds selected by
the Trustee under the plan without shareholder approval for the limited purpose
of determining the value of the Trustee's deferred fee account.

|X| Major Shareholders. As of September 30, 2003 the only shareholder of
record of any class of shares of the Fund were:

Computer Packages Inc., Retirement Plan and Trust Pooled Account, 414 Hungerford Dr.,
Rockville, MD 20850-4125, which owned 250,000.000 Class N shares (representing
approximately 47.32% of the Class N shares then outstanding).

RPSS CUST 403-B Plan, DEKALB BOE, FBO Beverly Anderson, 180 Pinecrest
Ave., Decatur, GA 30030-1933, who owned 45,051.289 Class N shares
(representing approximately 8.52% of the Class N shares then outstanding).

RPSS TR Rollover IRA, FBO Janelle F File, 16250 Borden Rd., Crescent, IA
51526-4042, who owned 29,016.671 Class N shares (representing
approximately 5.49% of the Class N shares then outstanding).

The Manager. The Manager is wholly-owned by Oppenheimer Acquisition Corp.,
a holding company controlled by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company. The
Manager is organized under the laws of the State of Colorado.

|X| Code of Ethics. The Fund, the Manager and the Distributor have a Code
of Ethics. It is designed to detect and prevent improper personal trading by
certain employees, including portfolio managers, that would compete with or take
advantage of the Fund's portfolio transactions. Covered persons include persons
with knowledge of the investments and investment intentions of the Fund and
other funds advised by the Manager. The Code of Ethics does permit personnel
subject to the Code to invest in securities, including securities that may be
purchased or held by the Fund, subject to a number of restrictions and controls.
Compliance with the Code of Ethics is carefully monitored and enforced by the
Manager.

The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement
filed with the SEC and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference
Room in Washington, D.C. You can obtain information about the hours of operation
of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1.202.942.8090. The Code of
Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's registration statement on the
SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's Internet website at www.sec.gov. Copies may be
obtained, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at the following
E-mail address: PUBLICINFO@SEC.GOV., or by writing to the SEC's Public Reference
Section, Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

Portfolio Proxy Voting. The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and
Procedures under which the Fund votes proxies relating to securities ("portfolio
proxies") held by the Fund. The Fund's primary consideration in voting portfolio
proxies is the financial interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Fund
has retained an unaffiliated third-party as its agent to vote portfolio proxies
in accordance with the Fund's Portfolio Proxy Voting Guidelines and to maintain
records of the Fund's voting of portfolio proxies pursuant to such portfolio
Proxy Voting Guidelines. The Proxy Voting Guidelines include provisions to
address conflicts of interest that may arise between the Fund and OFI where an
OFI directly-controlled affiliate manages or administers the assets of a pension
plan of the company soliciting the proxy. The Fund's Portfolio Proxy Voting
Guidelines on routine and non-routine proxy proposals are summarized below.

o The Fund votes with the recommendation of the issuer's management on
routine matters, including election of directors nominated by management
and ratification of auditors, unless circumstances indicate otherwise.
o In general, the Fund opposes anti-takeover proposals and supports
elimination of anti-takeover proposals, absent unusual circumstances.
o The Fund supports shareholder proposals to reduce a super-majority vote
requirement, and opposes management proposals to add a super-majority
vote requirement.
o The Fund opposes proposals to classify the board of directors. o The Fund
supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting. o The Fund opposes
re-pricing of stock options. o The Fund generally considers executive
compensation questions such as stock option
plans and bonus plans to be ordinary business activity. The Fund
analyzes stock option plans, paying particular attention to their
dilutive effect. While the Fund generally supports management proposals,
the Fund opposes plans it considers to be excessive.

The Fund will be required to file new Form N-PX, with its complete proxy
voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later than August 31st of
each year. The first such filing is due no later than August 31, 2004, for the
twelve months ended June 30, 2004. Once filed, the Fund's Form N-PX filing will
be available (i) without charge, upon request, by calling the Fund toll-free at
1.800.225.5677 and (ii) on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

|X| The Investment Advisory Agreement. The Manager provides investment
advisory and management services to the Fund under an investment advisory
agreement between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager selects securities for
the Fund's portfolio and handles its day-to-day business. The portfolio managers
of the Fund are employed by the Manager and are the persons who are principally
responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio. The
investment advisory agreement requires the Manager, at its expense, to provide
the Fund with adequate office space, facilities and equipment. It also requires
the Manager to provide and supervise the activities of all administrative and
clerical personnel required to provide effective administration for the Fund.

Those responsibilities include the compilation and maintenance of records
with respect to its operations, the preparation and filing of specified reports,
and composition of proxy materials and registration statements for continuous
public sale of shares of the Fund.

The Fund pays expenses not expressly assumed by the Manager under the
advisory agreement or paid by the general distributors of shares of the Fund.
The advisory agreement lists examples of expenses paid by the Fund. The major
categories relate to interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, fees to certain
Trustees, legal and audit expenses, custodian bank and transfer agent expenses,
share issuance costs, certain printing and registration costs and non-recurring
expenses, including litigation costs. The management fees paid by the Fund to
the Manager are calculated at the rates described in the Prospectus, which are
applied to the assets of the Fund as a whole. The fees are allocated to each
class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the Fund's net assets
represented by that class. The management fee paid by the Fund to the Manager
for the period ending August 31, 2003 is listed below.

--------------------------------------------------
Fiscal Period Management Fee Paid to
Ending 8/31 OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
2003 $115,988
--------------------------------------------------

The investment advisory agreement states that in the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties or
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the investment advisory
agreement, the Manager is not liable for any loss the Fund sustains for any
investment, adoption of any investment policy, or the purchase, sale or
retention of any security.

The agreement permits the Manager to act as investment advisor for any
other person, firm or corporation and to use the names "Oppenheimer" and "Main
Street" in connection with other investment companies for which it may act as
investment advisor or general distributor. If the Manager shall no longer act as
investment advisor to the Fund, the Manager may withdraw the right of the Fund's
parent corporation to use the names "Oppenheimer" and "Main Street" as part of
its name and the name of the Fund.

|X| Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement. The Board of Trustees,
including a majority of the Independent Trustees, is required to approve the
investment advisory agreement. The Investment Company Act requires that the
Board request and evaluate and the Manager provide such information as may be
reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreement.

The Board discussed the services the Manager performs for the Underlying
Fund and the services the Manager will perform for the Fund and concluded that
the advisory fee charged is based on services provided that are in addition to,
rather than duplicative of, services provided under the investment advisory
agreement with the Underlying Fund. The Board considered that the investment
advisory agreement requires that the Manager reduce its advisory fee in the
event the Fund's assets become completely and irreversibly invested in debt
securities.

The Board reviewed the foregoing information in arriving at its decision
to approve the investment advisory agreement. Among other factors, the Board
considered: o The nature, cost, and quality of the services to be provided to
the Fund and its
shareholders;
o The potential profitability of the Fund to the Manager;
o The investment performance of other mutual funds advised by the Manager in
comparison to regular market indices;
o Economies of scale that may be available to the Fund from the Manager;
o Fees paid by other principal protected mutual funds for similar services;
o The value and quality of any other benefits or services expected to be
received by the Fund from its relationship with the Manager, and
o The direct and indirect benefits the Manager will receive from its
relationship with the Fund. These included services provided by the
Distributor and the Transfer Agent, and brokerage and soft dollar
arrangements permissible under Section 28(c) of the Securities Exchange
Act.

The Board also considered that the Manager must be able to pay and retain
high quality personnel at competitive rates to provide services to the Fund, and
that maintaining the financial viability of the Manager is important so that the
Manager will be able to continue to provide quality services to the Fund and its
shareholders in adverse times. The Board also considered the investment
performance of other mutual funds advised by the Manager. The Board is aware
that there are alternatives to the use of the Manager.

These matters were also considered by the Independent Trustees, meeting
separately from the full Board with experienced Counsel to the Fund and
experienced Counsel to the Independent Trustees who assisted them in their
deliberations. The Fund's Counsel and the Independent Trustees Counsel are
independent of the Manager within the meaning and intent of the SEC Rules
regarding the independence of counsel.

In arriving at a decision to approve the investment advisory agreement,
the Board did not single out any one factor or group of factors as being more
important than other factors, but considered all factors together. The Board
judged the terms and conditions of the Agreement, including the investment
advisory fee, in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

Brokerage Provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreement. One of the duties of
the Manager under the investment advisory agreement is to arrange the portfolio
transactions for the Fund. The advisory agreement contains provisions relating
to the employment of broker-dealers to effect the Fund's portfolio transactions.
The Manager is authorized by the advisory agreement to employ broker-dealers,
including "affiliated" brokers, as that term is defined in the Investment
Company Act. The Manager may employ broker-dealers that the Manager thinks, in
its best judgment based on all relevant factors, will implement the policy of
the Fund to obtain, at reasonable expense, the "best execution" of the Fund's
portfolio transactions. "Best execution" means prompt and reliable execution at
the most favorable price obtainable. The Manager need not seek competitive
commissions bidding. However, it is expected to be aware of the current rates of
eligible brokers and to minimize the commissions paid to the extent consistent
with the interests and policies of the Fund as established by its Board of
Trustees.

Under the investment advisory agreement, the Manager may select brokers
(other than affiliates) that provide brokerage and/or research services for the
Fund and/or the other accounts over which the Manager or its affiliates have
investment discretion. The commissions paid to such brokers may be higher than
another qualified broker would charge, if the Manager makes a good faith
determination that the commission is fair and reasonable in relation to the
services provided. Subject to those considerations, as a factor in selecting
brokers for the Fund's portfolio transactions, the Manager may also consider
sales of shares of the Fund and other investment companies for which the Manager
or an affiliate serves as investment advisor.

Brokerage Practices Followed by the Manager. The Manager allocates brokerage for
the Fund subject to the provisions of the investment advisory agreement and the
procedures and rules described above. Generally, the Manager's portfolio traders
allocate brokerage based upon recommendations from the Manager's portfolio
managers. In certain instances, portfolio managers may directly place trades and
allocate brokerage. In either case, the Manager's executive officers supervise
the allocation of brokerage.

Transactions in securities other than those for which an exchange is the
primary market are generally done with principals or market makers. Brokerage
commissions are paid primarily for transactions in listed securities or for
certain fixed-income agency transactions in the secondary market. Otherwise
brokerage commissions are paid only if it appears likely that a better price or
execution can be obtained by doing so. Other funds advised by the Manager have
investment policies similar to those of the Fund. Those other funds may purchase
or sell the same securities as the Fund at the same time as the Fund, which
could affect the supply and price of the securities. If two or more funds
advised by the Manager purchase the same security on the same day from the same
dealer, the transactions under those combined orders are averaged as to price
and allocated in accordance with the purchase or sale orders actually placed for
each account.

Most purchases of debt obligations are principal transactions at net
prices. Instead of using a broker for those transactions, the Fund normally
deals directly with the selling or purchasing principal or market maker unless
the Manager determines that a better price or execution can be obtained by using
the services of a broker. Purchases of portfolio securities from underwriters
include a commission or concession paid by the issuer to the underwriter.
Purchases from dealers include a spread between the bid and asked prices. The
Fund seeks to obtain prompt execution of these orders at the most favorable net
price.

The investment advisory agreement permits the Manager to allocate
brokerage for research services. The research services provided by a particular
broker may be useful only to one or more of the advisory accounts of the Manager
and its affiliates. The investment research received for the commissions of
those other accounts may be useful both to the Fund and one or more of the
Manager's other accounts. Investment research may be supplied to the Manager by
a third party at the instance of a broker through which trades are placed.

Investment research services include information and analysis on
particular companies and industries as well as market or economic trends and
portfolio strategy, market quotations for portfolio evaluations, information
systems, computer hardware and similar products and services. If a research
service also assists the Manager in a non-research capacity (such as bookkeeping
or other administrative functions), then only the percentage or component that
provides assistance to the Manager in the investment decision-making process may
be paid in commission dollars.

The Board of Trustees permits the Manager to use stated commissions on
secondary fixed-income agency trades to obtain research if the broker represents
to the Manager that: (i) the trade is not from or for the broker's own
inventory, (ii) the trade was executed by the broker on an agency basis at the
stated commission, and (iii) the trade is not a riskless principal transaction.
The Board of Trustees permits the Manager to use commissions on fixed-price
offerings to obtain research, in the same manner as is permitted for agency
transactions.

The research services provided by brokers broadens the scope and
supplements the research activities of the Manager. That research provides
additional views and comparisons for consideration, and helps the Manager to
obtain market information for the valuation of securities that are either held
in the Fund's portfolio or are being considered for purchase. The Manager
provides information to the Board about the commissions paid to brokers
furnishing such services, together with the Manager's representation that the
amount of such commissions was reasonably related to the value or benefit of
such services.

Distribution and Service Plans

The Distributor. Under its General Distributor's Agreement with the Fund's
parent corporation, the Distributor acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in
the continuous public offering of the different classes of shares of the Fund.
The Distributor bears the expenses normally attributable to sales, including
advertising and the cost of printing and mailing prospectuses, other than those
furnished to existing shareholders. The Distributor is not obligated to sell a
specific number of shares. Expenses normally attributable to sales are borne by
the Distributor. They exclude payments under the Distribution and Service Plans
but include advertising and the cost of printing and mailing prospectuses (other
than those furnished to existing shareholders).

The sales charges and concessions paid to, or retained by, the Distributor
from the sale of shares during the Fund's fiscal period, and the contingent
deferred sales charges retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares
for the most recent fiscal period are shown in the tables below.

For additional information about distribution of the Fund's shares,
including fees and expenses, please refer to "Distribution and Service Plans."

Distribution and Service Plans. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
shares and Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act. Under those plans the
Fund reimburses the Distributor for all or a portion of its costs incurred in
connection with the distribution and/or servicing of the shares of the
particular class.

Each plan has been approved by a vote of the Board of Trustees. Under the
plans, the Manager and the Distributor may make payments to affiliates and in
their sole discretion, from time to time, may use their own resources (at no
direct cost to the Fund) to make payments to brokers, dealers or other financial
institutions for distribution and administrative services they perform.

Unless a plan is terminated as described below, the plan continues in
effect from year to year but only if the Fund's Board of Trustees specifically
vote annually to approve its continuance. Approval must be by a vote cast in
person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on continuing the plan. A
plan may be terminated at any time by the vote of a majority of the Trustees or
by the vote of the holders of a "majority" (as defined in the Investment Company
Act) of the outstanding shares of that class.

The Board of Trustees must approve all material amendments to a plan. An
amendment to increase materially the amount of payments to be made under a plan
must be approved by shareholders of the class affected by the amendment. Because
Class B shares of the Fund automatically convert into Class A shares 88 months
after purchase, the Fund must obtain the approval of both Class A and Class B
shareholders for a proposed material amendment to the Class A Plan that would
materially increase payments under the Plan. That approval must be by a
"majority" (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the shares of each
class, voting separately by class.

While the Plans are in effect, the Treasurer of the Fund shall provide
separate written reports on the plans to the Board of Trustees at least
quarterly for its review. The reports shall detail the amount of all payments
made under a plan and the purpose for which the payments were made. Those
reports are subject to the review and approval of the Independent Trustees.

Under the plans for a class, no payment will be made to any recipient in
any quarter in which the aggregate net asset value of all Fund shares of that
class held by the recipient for itself and its customers does not exceed a
minimum amount, if any, that may be set from time to time by a majority of the
Trustees. The Board of Trustees has set no minimum amount of assets to qualify
for payments under the plans.

|_| Class A Service Plan Fees. Under the Class A service plan, the
Distributor currently uses the fees it receives from the Fund to pay brokers,
dealers and other financial institutions (they are referred to as "recipients")
for personal services and account maintenance services they provide for their
customers who hold Class A shares. The services include, among others, answering
customer inquiries about the Fund, assisting in establishing and maintaining
accounts in the Fund, making the Fund's investment plans available and providing
other services at the request of the Fund or the Distributor. The Class A
service plan permits reimbursements to the Distributor at a rate of up to 0.25%
of average annual net assets of Class A shares. The Board has set the rate at
that level. While the plan permits the Board to authorize payments to the
Distributor to reimburse itself for services under the plan, the Board has not
yet done so. The Distributor makes payments to plan recipients quarterly at an
annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual net assets consisting of
Class A shares held in the accounts of the recipients or their customers.

For the fiscal period ended August 31, 2003, payments under the Plan for
Class A shares totaled $22,530, all of which was paid by the Distributor to
recipients. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to
Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years. The
Distributor may not use payments received under the Class A Plan to pay any of
its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or allocation
of overhead.

|_| Class B, Class C and Class N Service and Distribution Plan Fees.
Under each plan, service fees and distribution fees are computed on the average
of the net asset value of shares in the respective class, determined as of the
close of each regular business day during the period. The Class B, Class C and
Class N plans allow the Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate for its
services and costs in distributing Class B, Class C and Class N shares and
servicing accounts, whether the Distributor's distribution expenses are more or
less than the amounts paid by the Fund under the plan during the period for
which the fee is paid. The types of services that recipients provide are similar
to the services provided under the Class A service plan, described above.

Each plan permits the Distributor to retain both the asset-based sales
charges and the service fees or to pay recipients the service fee on a quarterly
basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor currently intends to
pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the first year after the shares
are purchased. After the first year shares are outstanding, the Distributor
makes service fee payments quarterly on those shares. The advance payment is
based on the net asset value of shares sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not
qualify for the advance service fee payment. If Class B, Class C or Class N
shares are redeemed during the first year after their purchase, the recipient of
the service fees on those shares will be obligated to repay the Distributor a
pro rata portion of the advance payment of the service fee made on those shares.

The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B shares and
Class N shares. The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C
shares during the first year the shares are outstanding. It pays the asset-based
sales charge as an ongoing concession to the recipient on Class C shares
outstanding for a year or more. If a dealer has a special agreement with the
Distributor, the Distributor will pay the Class B, Class C and/or Class N
service fee and the asset-based sales charge to the dealer quarterly in lieu of
paying the sales concessions and service fee in advance at the time of purchase.

The asset-based sales charges on Class B, Class C and Class N shares allow
investors to buy shares without a front-end sales charge while allowing the
Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those shares. The Fund pays the
asset-based sales charges to the Distributor for its services rendered in
distributing Class B, Class C and Class N shares. The payments are made to the
Distributor in recognition that the Distributor: o pays sales concessions to
authorized brokers and dealers at the time of sale and pays service fees as
described above,
o may finance payment of sales concessions and/or the advance of the
service fee payment to recipients under the plans, or may provide such
financing from its own resources or from the resources of an affiliate,
o employs personnel to support distribution of Class B, Class C and Class N
shares, o bears the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses
(other than those
furnished to current shareholders) and state "blue sky" registration
fees and certain other distribution expenses,
o may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B,
Class C and Class N shares without receiving payment under the plans
and therefore may not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent the
plans,
o receives payments under the plans consistent with the service fees and
asset-based sales charges paid by other non-proprietary funds that
charge 12b-1 fees,
o may use the payments under the plan to include the Fund in various
third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund
shares,
o may experience increased difficulty selling the Fund's shares if
payments under the plan are discontinued because most competitor funds
have plans that pay dealers for rendering distribution services as much
or more than the amounts currently being paid by the Fund, and
o may not be able to continue providing, at the same or at a lesser cost,
the same quality distribution sales efforts and services, or to obtain
such services from brokers and dealers, if the plan payments were to be
discontinued.

When Class B, Class C or Class N shares are sold without the designation
of a broker-dealer, the Distributor is automatically designated as the
broker-dealer of record. In those cases, the Distributor retains the service fee
and asset-based sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N shares.

The Distributor's actual expenses in selling Class B, Class C and Class N
shares may be more than the payments it receives from the contingent deferred
sales charges collected on redeemed shares and from the Fund under the plans. If
either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund, the Board
of Trustees may allow the Fund to continue payments of the asset-based sales
charge to the Distributor for distributing shares before the plan was
terminated.

Performance of the Fund

Explanation of Performance Terminology. The Fund uses a variety of terms to
illustrate its investment performance. Those terms include "cumulative total
return," "average annual total return," "average annual total return at net
asset value" and "total return at net asset value." An explanation of how total
returns are calculated is set forth below. For periods of less than one year,
the Fund may quote its performance on a non-annualized basis. You can obtain
current performance information by calling the Fund's Transfer Agent at
1.800.225.5677 or by visiting the Oppenheimer Funds internet website at
http://www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

The Fund's illustrations of its performance data in advertisements must
comply with rules of the SEC. Those rules describe the types of performance data
that may be used and how it is to be calculated. In general, any advertisement
by the Fund of its performance data must include the average annual total
returns for the advertised class of shares of the Fund. Those returns must be
shown for the 1-, 5- and 10-year periods (or the life of the class, if less)
ending as of the most recently ended calendar quarter prior to the publication
of the advertisement (or its submission for publication).

Use of standardized performance calculations enables an investor to
compare the Fund's performance to the performance of other funds for the same
periods. However, a number of factors should be considered before using the
Fund's performance information as a basis for comparison with other investments:

o Total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical account in the
Fund over various periods and do not show the performance of each shareholder's
account. Your account's performance will vary from the model performance data if
your dividends are received in cash, or you buy or sell shares during the
period, or you bought your shares at a different time and price than the shares
used in the model.
o An investment in the Fund is not insured by the FDIC or any other
government agency.
o The Fund's performance returns may not reflect the effect of taxes on
dividends and capital gains distributions.
o The principal value of the Fund's shares and total returns are not
guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.
o When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
o Total returns for any given past period represent historical performance
information and are not, and should not be considered, a prediction of future
returns.

The performance of each class of shares is shown separately, because the
performance of each class of shares will usually be different. That is because
of the different kinds of expenses each class bears. The total returns of each
class of shares of the Fund are affected by market conditions, the quality of
the Fund's investments, the maturity of debt investments, the types of
investments the Fund holds, and its operating expenses that are allocated to the
particular class.

|X| Total Return Information. There are different types of "total returns"
to measure the Fund's performance. Total return is the change in value of a
hypothetical investment in the Fund over a given period, assuming that all
dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested in additional shares
and that the investment is redeemed at the end of the period. Because of
differences in expenses for each class of shares, the total returns for each
class are separately measured. The cumulative total return measures the change
in value over the entire period (for example, ten years). An average annual
total return shows the average rate of return for each year in a period that
would produce the cumulative total return over the entire period. However,
average annual total returns do not show actual year-by-year performance. The
Fund uses standardized calculations for its total returns as prescribed by the
SEC. The methodology is discussed below.

In calculating total returns for Class A shares, the current maximum sales
charge of 5.75% (as a percentage of the offering price) is deducted from the
initial investment ("P") (unless the return is shown without sales charge, as
described below). For Class B shares, payment of the applicable contingent
deferred sales charge is applied, depending on the period for which the return
is shown: 5.0% in the first year, 4.0% in the second year, 3.0% in the third and
fourth years, 2.0% in the fifth year, 1.0% in the sixth year and none
thereafter. For Class C shares, the 1% contingent deferred sales charge is
deducted for returns for the 1-year and life-of-class periods, as applicable.
For Class N shares, the 1% contingent deferred sales charge is deducted for
returns for the one-year and life-of-class periods as applicable.

|_| Average Annual Total Return. The "average annual total return" of each
class is an average annual compounded rate of return for each year in a
specified number of years. It is the rate of return based on the change in value
of a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000 ("P" in the formula below) held
for a number of years ("n" in the formula) to achieve an Ending Redeemable Value
("ERV" in the formula) of that investment, according to the following formula:

1/n
ERV
--- - 1 = Average Annual Total Return
P

|_| Cumulative Total Return. The "cumulative total return" calculation
measures the change in value of a hypothetical investment of $1,000 over an
entire period of years. Its calculation uses some of the same factors as average
annual total return, but it does not average the rate of return on an annual
basis. Cumulative total return is determined as follows:

ERV-P
----- = Total Return
P

|_| Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on Distributions). The
"average annual total return (after taxes on distributions)" of Class A shares
is an average annual compounded rate of return for each year in a specified
number of years, adjusted to show the effect of federal taxes (calculated using
the highest individual marginal federal income tax rates in effect on any
reinvestment date) on any distributions made by the Fund during the specified
period. It is the rate of return based on the change in value of a hypothetical
initial investment of $1,000 ("P" in the formula below) held for a number of
years ("n" in the formula) to achieve an ending value ("ATVD" in the formula) of
that investment, after taking into account the effect of taxes on Fund
distributions, but not on the redemption of Fund shares, according to the
following formula:

ATVD - 1 = Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on
/n Distributions)
P

|_| Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on Distributions and
Redemptions). The "average annual total return (after taxes on distributions and
redemptions)" of Class A shares is an average annual compounded rate of return
for each year in a specified number of years, adjusted to show the effect of
federal taxes (calculated using the highest individual marginal federal income
tax rates in effect on any reinvestment date) on any distributions made by the
Fund during the specified period and the effect of capital gains taxes or
capital loss tax benefits (each calculated using the highest federal individual
capital gains tax rate in effect on the redemption date) resulting from the
redemption of the shares at the end of the period. It is the rate of return
based on the change in value of a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000 ("P"
in the formula below) held for a number of years ("n" in the formula) to achieve
an ending value ("ATVDR" in the formula) of that investment, after taking into
account the effect of taxes on fund distributions and on the redemption of Fund
shares, according to the following formula:

ATVDR - 1= Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on Distributions
1/n and Redemptions)
P

|_| Total Returns at Net Asset Value. From time to time the Fund may also
quote a cumulative or an average annual total return "at net asset value"
(without deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B, Class C or Class N
shares. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares. Each is based on the
difference in net asset value per share at the beginning and the end of the
period for a hypothetical investment in that class of shares (without
considering front-end or contingent deferred sales charges) and takes into
consideration the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.

Other Performance Comparisons. The Fund compares its performance annually to
that of an appropriate broadly-based market index in its Annual Report to
shareholders. You can obtain that information by contacting the Transfer Agent
at the addresses or telephone numbers shown on the cover of this Statement of
Additional Information. The Fund may also compare its performance to that of
other investments, including other mutual funds, or use rankings of its
performance by independent ranking entities. Examples of these performance
comparisons are set forth below.

|_| Lipper Rankings. From time to time the Fund may publish the ranking of
the performance of its classes of shares by Lipper, Inc. ("Lipper"). Lipper
monitors the performance of regulated investment companies, including the Fund,
and ranks their performance for various periods based on categories relating to
investment styles. The Lipper performance rankings are based on total returns
that include the reinvestment of capital gain distributions and income dividends
but do not take sales charges or taxes into consideration. Lipper also publishes
"peer-group" indices of the performance of all mutual funds in a category that
it monitors and averages of the performance of the funds in particular
categories.

|_| Morningstar Ratings. From time to time a Fund may publish the star
rating of the performance of its classes of shares by Morningstar, Inc., an
independent mutual fund monitoring service. Morningstar rates mutual funds in
their specialized market sector. The Fund is rated among domestic hybrid funds.

Morningstar proprietary star ratings reflect historical risk-adjusted
total investment return. For each fund with at least a three-year history,
Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating(TM) based on a Morningstar
Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly
performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption
fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent
performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next
22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2
stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a
fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause
slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar
Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures
associated with its three-, five-and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating
metrics.

|_| Performance Rankings and Comparisons by Other Entities and
Publications. From time to time the Fund may include in its advertisements and
sales literature performance information about the Fund cited in newspapers and
other periodicals such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Barron's,
or similar publications. That information may include performance quotations
from other sources, including Lipper and Morningstar. The performance of the
Fund's classes of shares may be compared in publications to the performance of
various market indices or other investments, and averages, performance rankings
or other benchmarks prepared by recognized mutual fund statistical services.

Investors may also wish to compare the returns on the Fund's share classes
to the return on fixed-income investments available from banks and thrift
institutions. Those include certificates of deposit, ordinary interest-paying
checking and savings accounts, and other forms of fixed or variable time
deposits, and various other instruments such as Treasury bills. However, the
Fund's returns and share prices are not guaranteed or insured by the FDIC or any
other agency and will fluctuate daily, while bank depository obligations may be
insured by the FDIC and may provide fixed rates of return. Repayment of
principal and payment of interest on Treasury securities is backed by the full
faith and credit of the U.S. government.

From time to time, the Fund may publish rankings or ratings of the Manager
or Transfer Agent, and of the investor services provided by them to shareholders
of the Oppenheimer funds, other than performance rankings of the Oppenheimer
funds themselves. Those ratings or rankings of shareholder and investor services
by third parties may include comparisons of their services to those provided by
other mutual fund families selected by the rating or ranking services. They may
be based upon the opinions of the rating or ranking service itself, using its
research or judgment, or based upon surveys of investors, brokers, shareholders
or others.

From time to time the Fund may include in its advertisements and sales
literature the total return performance of a hypothetical investment account
that includes shares of the fund and other Oppenheimer funds. The combined
account may be part of an illustration of an asset allocation model or similar
presentation. The account performance may combine total return performance of
the fund and the total return performance of other Oppenheimer funds included in
the account. Additionally, from time to time, the Fund's advertisements and
sales literature may include, for illustrative or comparative purposes,
statistical data or other information about general or specific market and
economic conditions. That may include, for example, o information about the
performance of certain securities or commodities markets or segments of those
markets,
o information about the performance of the economies of particular
countries or regions,
o the earnings of companies included in segments of particular industries,
sectors, securities markets, countries or regions,
o the availability of different types of securities or offerings of
securities,
o information relating to the gross national or gross domestic product
of the United States or other countries or regions,
o comparisons of various market sectors or indices to demonstrate
performance, risk, or other characteristics of the Fund.

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

|X| Class B Conversion. Under current interpretations of applicable
federal income tax law by the Internal Revenue Service, the conversion of Class
B shares to Class A shares 88 months from the date of purchase is not treated as
a taxable event for the shareholder. If those laws or the IRS interpretation of
those laws should change, the automatic conversion feature may be suspended. In
that event, no further conversions of Class B shares would occur while that
suspension remained in effect. Although Class B shares could then be exchanged
for Class A shares on the basis of relative net asset value of the two classes,
without the imposition of a sales charge or fee, such exchange could constitute
a taxable event for the shareholder, and absent such exchange, Class B shares
might continue to be subject to the asset-based sales charge for longer than 88
months.

|X| Allocation of Expenses. The Fund pays expenses related to its daily
operations, such as custodian fees, Trustees' fees, transfer agency fees, legal
fees and auditing costs. Those expenses are paid out of the Fund's assets and
are not paid directly by shareholders. However, those expenses reduce the net
asset values of shares, and therefore are indirectly borne by shareholders
through their investment.

The methodology for calculating the net asset value, dividends and
distributions of the Fund's share classes recognizes two types of expenses.
General expenses that do not pertain specifically to any one class are allocated
pro rata to the shares of all classes. The allocation is based on the percentage
of the Fund's total assets that is represented by the assets of each class, and
then equally to each outstanding share within a given class. Such general
expenses include management fees, legal, bookkeeping and audit fees, printing
and mailing costs of shareholder reports, Prospectuses, Statements of Additional
Information and other materials for current shareholders, fees to unaffiliated
Trustees, custodian expenses, share issuance costs, organization and start-up
costs, interest, taxes and brokerage commissions, and non-recurring expenses,
such as litigation costs.

Other expenses that are directly attributable to a particular class are
allocated equally to each outstanding share within that class. Examples of such
expenses include distribution and service plan (12b-1) fees, transfer and
shareholder servicing agent fees and expenses, and shareholder meeting expenses
(to the extent that such expenses pertain only to a specific class).

Account Fees. As stated in the Prospectus, a $12 annual fee is assessed on
any account valued at less than $500. This fee will not be assessed on the
following accounts:

o Accounts that have balances below $500 due to the automatic conversion of
shares from Class B to Class A shares;
o Certain accounts held by broker-dealers through the National Securities
Clearing Corporation; and
o Accounts that fall below the $500 threshold due solely to market
fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the fee is
deducted.

The fee is automatically deducted from qualifying accounts annually on or
about the second to last business day of September. This annual fee is waived
for any shareholders who elect to access their account documents through
electronic document delivery rather than in paper copy and who elect to utilize
the Internet or PhoneLink as their primary source for their general servicing
needs. To sign up to access account documents electronically via eDocs Direct,
please visit the Service Center on our website at WWW.OPPENHEIMERFUNDS.COM or
call 1.888.470.0862 for instructions.

Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share. The net asset values per share of
each class of shares of the Fund are determined as of the close of business of
the Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open. The calculation is done by
dividing the value of the Fund's net assets attributable to a class by the
number of shares of that class that are outstanding. The Exchange normally
closes at 4:00 P.M., Eastern time, but may close earlier on some other days (for
example, in case of weather emergencies or on days falling before a U.S.
holiday). All references to time in this Statement of Additional Information
mean "Eastern time." The Exchange's most recent annual announcement (which is
subject to change) states that it will close on New Year's Day, Martin Luther
King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day,
Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. It may also close on other days.

Dealers other than Exchange members may conduct trading in certain
securities on days on which the Exchange is closed (including weekends and
holidays) or after 4:00 P.M. on a regular business day. Because the Fund's net
asset values will not be calculated on those days, the Fund's net asset values
per share may be significantly affected on such days when shareholders may not
purchase or redeem shares.

|X| Securities Valuation. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established
procedures for the valuation of the Fund's securities. In general those
procedures are as follows: o Long-term debt securities having a remaining
maturity in excess of 60 days are valued based on the mean between the "bid" and
"asked" prices determined by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Fund's
Board of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in
the security on the basis of reasonable inquiry. o The following securities are
valued at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices determined by a pricing
service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from
two active market makers in the security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:
(1) debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when issued,
(2) debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued and
have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
(3) non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days
or less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60
days or less.
o The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization of
premiums and accretion of discounts:
(1) money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a
maturity of less than 397 days when issued that have a remaining maturity of 60
days or less, and
(2) debt instruments held by a money market fund that have a remaining maturity
of 397 days or less.
o Securities (including restricted securities) not having readily-available
market quotations are valued at fair value determined under the Board's
procedures. If the Manager is unable to locate two market makers willing to give
quotes, a security may be priced at the mean between the "bid" and "asked"
prices provided by a single active market maker (which in certain cases may be
the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available).

How to Sell Shares

The information below supplements the terms and conditions for redeeming shares
set forth in the Prospectus.

Sending Redemption Proceeds by Federal Funds Wire. The Federal Funds wire of
redemption proceeds may be delayed if the Fund's custodian bank is not open for
business on a day when the Fund would normally authorize the wire to be made,
which is usually the Fund's next regular business day following the redemption.
In those circumstances, the wire will not be transmitted until the next bank
business day on which the Fund is open for business. No dividends will be paid
on the proceeds of redeemed shares awaiting transfer by Federal Funds wire.

Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months of a redemption, a shareholder may
reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of:
o Class A shares purchased subject to an initial sales charge or Class A shares
on which a contingent deferred sales charge was paid, or
o Class B shares that were subject to the Class B contingent deferred sales
charge when redeemed.

The reinvestment may be made without sales charge only in Class A shares
of the Fund if the reinvestment occurs during the Post-Warranty Period or if the
reinvestment occurs during the Warranty Period, in any of the other Oppenheimer
funds into which shares of the Fund are exchangeable as described in "How to
Exchange Shares" below. Reinvestment will be at the net asset value next
computed after the Transfer Agent receives the reinvestment order. The
shareholder must ask the Transfer Agent for that privilege at the time of
reinvestment. This privilege does not apply to Class C and Class N shares. The
Fund may amend, suspend or cease offering this reinvestment privilege at any
time as to shares redeemed after the date of such amendment, suspension or
cessation.

Any capital gain that was realized when the shares were redeemed is
taxable, and reinvestment will not alter any capital gains tax payable on that
gain. If there has been a capital loss on the redemption, some or all of the
loss may not be tax deductible, depending on the timing and amount of the
reinvestment. Under the Internal Revenue Code, if the redemption proceeds of
Fund shares on which a sales charge was paid are reinvested in shares of the
Fund or another of the Oppenheimer funds within 90 days of payment of the sales
charge, the shareholder's basis in the shares of the Fund that were redeemed may
not include the amount of the sales charge paid. That would reduce the loss or
increase the gain recognized from the redemption. However, in that case the
sales charge would be added to the basis of the shares acquired by the
reinvestment of the redemption proceeds.

Payments "In Kind." The Prospectus states that payment for shares tendered for
redemption is ordinarily made in cash. However, under certain circumstances, the
Board of Trustees of the Fund may determine that it would be detrimental to the
best interests of the remaining shareholders of the Fund to make payment of a
redemption order wholly or partly in cash. In that case, the Fund may pay the
redemption proceeds in whole or in part by a distribution "in kind" of liquid
securities from the portfolio of the Fund, in lieu of cash.

The Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the Investment
Company Act. Under that rule, the Fund is obligated to redeem shares solely in
cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets of the Fund during any
90-day period for any one shareholder. If shares are redeemed in kind, the
redeeming shareholder might incur brokerage or other costs in selling the
securities for cash. The Fund will value securities used to pay redemptions in
kind using the same method the Fund uses to value its portfolio securities
described above under "Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share." That
valuation will be made as of the time the redemption price is determined.

Involuntary Redemptions. The Fund's Board of Trustees has the right to cause the
involuntary redemption of the shares held in any account if the aggregate net
asset value of those shares is less than $500 or such lesser amount as the Board
may fix. The Board will not cause the involuntary redemption of shares in an
account if the aggregate net asset value of such shares has fallen below the
stated minimum solely as a result of market fluctuations. If the Board exercises
this right, it may also fix the requirements for any notice to be given to the
shareholders in question (not less than 30 days). The Board may alternatively
set requirements for the shareholder to increase the investment, or set other
terms and conditions so that the shares would not be involuntarily redeemed.

Transfers of Shares. A transfer of shares to a different registration is not an
event that triggers the payment of sales charges. Therefore, shares are not
subject to the payment of a contingent deferred sales charge of any class at the
time of transfer to the name of another person or entity. It does not matter
whether the transfer occurs by absolute assignment, gift or bequest, as long as
it does not involve, directly or indirectly, a public sale of the shares. When
shares subject to a contingent deferred sales charge are transferred, the
transferred shares will remain subject to the contingent deferred sales charge.
It will be calculated as if the transferee shareholder had acquired the
transferred shares in the same manner and at the same time as the transferring
shareholder.

If less than all shares held in an account are transferred, and some but
not all shares in the account would be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge if redeemed at the time of transfer, the priorities described in the
Prospectus under "How to Buy Shares" for the imposition of the Class B, Class C
and Class N contingent deferred sales charge will be followed in determining the
order in which shares are transferred.

Distributions From Retirement Plans. Requests for distributions from
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, 403(b)(7) custodial
plans, 401(k) plans or pension or profit-sharing plans should be addressed to
"Trustee, OppenheimerFunds Retirement Plans," c/o the Transfer Agent at its
address listed in "How To Sell Shares" in the Prospectus or on the back cover of
this Statement of Additional Information. The request must:
(1) state the reason for the distribution;
(2) state the owner's awareness of tax penalties if the distribution is
premature; and
(3) conform to the requirements of the plan and the Fund's other redemption
requirements.

Participants (other than self-employed plan sponsors) in
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored pension or profit-sharing plans with shares of the
Fund held in the name of the plan or its fiduciary may not directly request
redemption of their accounts. The plan administrator or fiduciary must sign the
request.

Distributions from pension and profit sharing plans are subject to special
requirements under the Internal Revenue Code and certain documents (available
from the Transfer Agent) must be completed and submitted to the Transfer Agent
before the distribution may be made. Distributions from retirement plans are
subject to withholding requirements under the Internal Revenue Code, and IRS
Form W-4P (available from the Transfer Agent) must be submitted to the Transfer
Agent with the distribution request, or the distribution may be delayed. Unless
the shareholder has provided the Transfer Agent with a certified tax
identification number, the Internal Revenue Code requires that tax be withheld
from any distribution even if the shareholder elects not to have tax withheld.
The Fund, the Manager, the Distributor, and the Transfer Agent assume no
responsibility to determine whether a distribution satisfies the conditions of
applicable tax laws and will not be responsible for any tax penalties assessed
in connection with a distribution.

Special Arrangements for Repurchase of Shares from Dealers and Brokers. The
Distributor is the Fund's agent to repurchase its shares from authorized dealers
or brokers on behalf of their customers. Shareholders should contact their
broker or dealer to arrange this type of redemption. The repurchase price per
share will be the net asset value next computed after the Distributor receives
an order placed by the dealer or broker. However, if the Distributor receives a
repurchase order from a dealer or broker after the close of the Exchange on a
regular business day, it will be processed at that day's net asset value if the
order was received by the dealer or broker from its customers prior to the time
the Exchange closes. Normally, the Exchange closes at 4:00 P.M., but may do so
earlier on some days. Additionally, the order must have been transmitted to and
received by the Distributor prior to its close of business that day (normally
5:00 P.M.).

Ordinarily, for accounts redeemed by a broker-dealer under this procedure,
payment will be made within three business days after the shares have been
redeemed upon the Distributor's receipt of the required redemption documents in
proper form. The signature(s) of the registered owners on the redemption
documents must be guaranteed as described in the Prospectus.

How to Exchange Shares

As stated in the Prospectus, shares of a particular class of Oppenheimer funds
having more than one class of shares may be exchanged only for shares of the
same class of other Oppenheimer funds. Shares of Oppenheimer funds that have a
single class without a class designation are deemed "Class A" shares for this
purpose. You can obtain a current list showing which funds offer which classes
of shares by calling the Distributor.

other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k)
plans.
o Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be exchanged
only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may not be
acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other Oppenheimer funds
except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or Oppenheimer Cash
Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M shares.
o Class X shares of Limited Term New York Municipal Fund may be exchanged
only for Class B shares of other Oppenheimer funds and no exchanges may be
made to Class X shares.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund may not be exchanged for
shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash Reserves
or Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund. Only participants in certain
retirement plans may purchase shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation
Fund, and only those participants may exchange shares of other Oppenheimer
funds for shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund.
o Class A shares of Oppenheimer funds may be exchanged at net asset value
for shares of any money market fund offered by the Distributor. Shares of
any money market fund purchased without a sales charge may be exchanged
for shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge upon payment
of the sales charge. They may also be used to purchase shares of
Oppenheimer funds subject to an early withdrawal charge or contingent
deferred sales charge.

o Shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. purchased with the
redemption proceeds of shares of other mutual funds (other than funds managed by
the Manager or its subsidiaries) redeemed within the 30 days prior to that
purchase may subsequently be exchanged for shares of other Oppenheimer funds
without being subject to an initial sales charge or contingent deferred sales
charge. To qualify for that privilege, the investor or the investor's dealer
must notify the Distributor of eligibility for this privilege at the time the
shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. are purchased. If requested, they
must supply proof of entitlement to this privilege.

o Shares of the Fund acquired during the Offering Period by reinvestment of
dividends or distributions from any of the other Oppenheimer funds or from
any unit investment trust for which reinvestment arrangements have been
made with the Distributor may be exchanged at net asset value for shares
of any of the Oppenheimer funds.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund may be
exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer funds.
However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of other
Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main
Street Fund until after the expiration of the warranty period (8/5/2010).

The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
time. Although the Fund may impose these changes at any time, it will provide
you with notice of those changes whenever it is required to do so by applicable
law. It may be required to provide 60 days' notice prior to materially amending
or terminating the exchange privilege. That 60 day notice is not required in
extraordinary circumstances.

|X| How Exchanges Affect Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. No contingent
deferred sales charge is imposed on exchanges of shares of any class purchased
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge, with the following exceptions:

o When Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund (other than Rochester National
Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals) acquired by exchange of Class A shares
of any Oppenheimer fund purchased subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales
charge are redeemed within 18 months measured from the beginning of the calendar
month of the initial purchase of the exchanged Class A shares, the Class A
contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on the redeemed shares.

o When Class A shares of Rochester National Municipals and Rochester Fund
Municipals acquired by exchange of Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund
purchased subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales charge are redeemed
within 24 months of the beginning of the calendar month of the initial purchase
of the exchanged Class A shares, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge is
imposed on the redeemed shares.

o If any Class A shares of another Oppenheimer fund that are exchanged for Class
A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund are subject to the Class A
contingent deferred sales charge of the other Oppenheimer fund at the time of
exchange, the holding period for that Class A contingent deferred sales charge
will carry over to the Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund
acquired in the exchange. The Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate
Fund acquired in that exchange will be subject to the Class A Early Withdrawal
Charge of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund if they are repurchased before
the expiration of the holding period.

o When Class A shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves and Oppenheimer Money Market
Fund, Inc. acquired by exchange of Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund
purchased subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales charge are redeemed
within the Class A holding period of the fund from which the shares were
exchanged, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge of the fund from which
the shares were exchanged is imposed on the redeemed shares.

o With respect to Class B shares, the Class B contingent deferred sales charge
is imposed on Class B shares acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within
six years of the initial purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

o With respect to Class C shares, the Class C contingent deferred sales charge
is imposed on Class C shares acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within 12
months of the initial purchase of the exchanged Class C shares.

o With respect to Class N shares, a 1% contingent deferred sales charge will be
imposed if the retirement plan (not including IRAs and 403(b) plans) is
terminated or Class N shares of all Oppenheimer funds are terminated as an
investment option of the plan and Class N shares are redeemed within 18 months
after the plan's first purchase of Class N shares of any Oppenheimer fund or
with respect to an individual retirement plan or 403(b) plan, Class N shares are
redeemed within 18 months of the plan's first purchase of Class N shares of any
Oppenheimer fund.

o When Class B, Class C or Class N shares are redeemed to effect an exchange,
the priorities described in "How To Buy Shares" in the Prospectus for the
imposition of the Class B, Class C or Class N contingent deferred sales charge
will be followed in determining the order in which the shares are exchanged.
Before exchanging shares, shareholders should take into account how the exchange
may affect any contingent deferred sales charge that might be imposed in the
subsequent redemption of remaining shares.

Shareholders owning shares of more than one class must specify which class
of shares they wish to exchange.

|X| Limits on Multiple Exchange Orders. The Fund reserves the right to
reject telephone or written exchange requests submitted in bulk by anyone on
behalf of more than one account. The Fund may accept requests for exchanges of
up to 50 accounts per day from representatives of authorized dealers that
qualify for this privilege.

|X| Telephone Exchange Requests. When exchanging shares by telephone, a
shareholder must have an existing account in the fund to which the exchange is
to be made. Otherwise, the investors must obtain a prospectus of that fund
before the exchange request may be submitted. If all telephone lines are busy
(which might occur, for example, during periods of substantial market
fluctuations), shareholders might not be able to request exchanges by telephone
and would have to submit written exchange requests.

|X| Processing Exchange Requests. Shares to be exchanged are redeemed on
the regular business day the Transfer Agent receives an exchange request in
proper form (the "Redemption Date"). Normally, shares of the fund to be acquired
are purchased on the Redemption Date, but such purchases may be delayed by
either fund up to five business days if it determines that it would be
disadvantaged by an immediate transfer of the redemption proceeds. The Fund
reserves the right, in its discretion, to refuse any exchange request that may
disadvantage it. For example, if the receipt of multiple exchange requests from
a dealer might require the disposition of portfolio securities at a time or at a
price that might be disadvantageous to the Fund, the Fund may refuse the
request.

When you exchange some or all of your shares from one fund to another, any
special account feature such as an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic Withdrawal
Plan, will be switched to the new fund account unless you tell the Transfer
Agent not to do so. However, special redemption and exchange features such as
Automatic Exchange Plans and Automatic Withdrawal Plans cannot be switched to an
account in Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund.

In connection with any exchange request, the number of shares exchanged
may be less than the number requested if the exchange or the number requested
would include shares subject to a restriction cited in the Prospectus or this
Statement of Additional Information, or would include shares covered by a share
certificate that is not tendered with the request. In those cases, only the
shares available for exchange without restriction will be exchanged.

The different Oppenheimer funds available for exchange have different
investment objectives, policies and risks. A shareholder should assure that the
fund selected is appropriate for his or her investment and should be aware of
the tax consequences of an exchange. For federal income tax purposes, an
exchange transaction is treated as a redemption of shares of one fund and a
purchase of shares of another. "Reinvestment Privilege," above, discusses some
of the tax consequences of reinvestment of redemption proceeds in such cases.
The Fund, the Distributor, and the Transfer Agent are unable to provide
investment, tax or legal advice to a shareholder in connection with an exchange
request or any other investment transaction.

Under certain tax rules, the Fund may be required to include an amount in
income with respect to a security even though the Fund does not receive payments
in cash attributable to such income in respect of the security during the year.
For example, the Fund may be required to accrue a portion of any discount at
which it purchases a debt security as income in each year. The Fund will not
invest in equity securities during the Warranty Period other than Class Y shares
of the Underlying Fund. To the extent that the Fund invests in any securities
producing such "phantom income," the Fund will nonetheless be required to make
income distributions of such phantom income in order to avoid taxation of such
income at the Fund level. Such distributions will be required to be made from
available cash of the Fund or by liquidation of Fund securities if necessary. If
a distribution of cash necessitates the liquidation of Fund securities, the Fund
may realize a gain or loss from such sales. Any net capital gains realized from
such transactions may result in larger capital gain distributions (if any) to
shareholders than they would have received in the absence of such transactions.

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends and Distributions. The Fund has no fixed dividend rate and there can
be no assurance as to the payment of any dividends or the realization of any
capital gains. The dividends and distributions paid by a class of shares will
vary from time to time depending on market conditions, the composition of the
Fund's portfolio, and expenses borne by the Fund or borne separately by a class.
Dividends are calculated in the same manner, at the same time, and on the same
day for each class of shares. However, dividends on Class B, Class C and Class N
shares are expected to be lower than dividends on Class A shares. That is
because of the effect of the asset-based sales charge on Class B, Class C and
Class N shares. Those dividends will also differ in amount as a consequence of
any difference in the net asset values of the different classes of shares.

Dividends, distributions and proceeds of the redemption of Fund shares
represented by checks returned to the Transfer Agent by the Postal Service as
undeliverable will be invested in shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Reinvestment will be made as promptly as possible after the return of such
checks to the Transfer Agent, to enable the investor to earn a return on
otherwise idle funds. Unclaimed accounts may be subject to state escheatment
laws, and the Fund and the Transfer Agent will not be liable to shareholders or
their representatives for compliance with those laws in good faith.

Tax Status of the Fund's Dividends, Distributions and Redemptions of Shares. The
federal tax treatment of the Fund's dividends and capital gains distributions is
briefly highlighted in the Prospectus. The following is only a summary of
certain additional tax considerations generally affecting the Fund and its
shareholders.

The tax discussion in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information is based on tax law in effect on the date of the Prospectus and this
Statement of Additional Information. Those laws and regulations may be changed
by legislative, judicial, or administrative action, sometimes with retroactive
effect. State and local tax treatment of ordinary income dividends and capital
gain dividends from regulated investment companies may differ from the treatment
under the Internal Revenue Code described below. Potential purchasers of shares
of the Fund are urged to consult their tax advisers with specific reference to
their own tax circumstances as well as the consequences of federal, state and
local tax rules affecting an investment in the Fund.

|X| Qualification as a Regulated Investment Company. The Fund has elected
to be taxed as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a regulated investment company, the Fund is
not subject to federal income tax on the portion of its net investment income
(that is, taxable interest, dividends, and other taxable ordinary income, net of
expenses) and capital gain net income (that is, the excess of net long-term
capital gains over net short-term capital losses) that it distributes to
shareholders.

That qualification enables the Fund to "pass through" its income and
realized capital gains to shareholders without having to pay tax on them. This
avoids a "double tax" on that income and capital gains, since shareholders
normally will be taxed on the dividends and capital gains they receive from the
Fund (unless their Fund shares are held in a retirement account or the
shareholder is otherwise exempt from tax). The Internal Revenue Code contains a
number of complex tests relating to qualification that the Fund might not meet
in a particular year. If it did not qualify as a regulated investment company,
the Fund would be treated for tax purposes as an ordinary corporation and would
receive no tax deduction for payments made to shareholders.

To qualify as a regulated investment company, the Fund must distribute at
least 90% of its investment company taxable income (in brief, net investment
income and the excess of net short-term capital gain over net long-term capital
loss) for the taxable year. The Fund must also satisfy certain other
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, some of which are described below.
Distributions by the Fund made during the taxable year or, under specified
circumstances, within 12 months after the close of the taxable year, will be
considered distributions of income and gains for the taxable year and will
therefore count toward satisfaction of the above-mentioned requirement.

To qualify as a regulated investment company, the Fund must derive at
least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, certain payments with
respect to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock
or securities or foreign currencies (to the extent such currency gains are
directly related to the regulated investment company's principal business of
investing in stock or securities) and certain other income.

In addition to satisfying the requirements described above, the Fund must
satisfy an asset diversification test in order to qualify as a regulated
investment company. Under that test, at the close of each quarter of the Fund's
taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund's assets must consist of
cash and cash items (including receivables), U.S. government securities,
securities of other regulated investment companies, and securities of other
issuers. As to each of those issuers, the Fund must not have invested more than
5% of the value of the Fund's total assets in securities of each such issuer and
the Fund must not hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of
each such issuer. No more than 25% of the value of its total assets may be
invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. government
securities and securities of other regulated investment companies), or in two or
more issuers which the Fund controls and which are engaged in the same or
similar trades or businesses. For purposes of this test, obligations issued or
guaranteed by certain agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government are
treated as U.S. government securities.

|X| Excise Tax on Regulated Investment Companies. Under the Internal
Revenue Code, by December 31 each year, the Fund must distribute 98% of its
taxable investment income earned from January 1 through December 31 of that year
and 98% of its capital gains realized in the period from November 1 of the prior
year through October 31 of the current year. If it does not, the Fund must pay
an excise tax on the amounts not distributed. It is presently anticipated that
the Fund will meet those requirements. To meet this requirement, in certain
circumstances the Fund might be required to liquidate portfolio investments to
make sufficient distributions to avoid excise tax liability. However, the Board
of Trustees and the Manager might determine in a particular year that it would
be in the best interests of shareholders for the Fund not to make such
distributions at the required levels and to pay the excise tax on the
undistributed amounts. That would reduce the amount of income or capital gains
available for distribution to shareholders.

|X| Taxation of Fund Distributions. The Fund anticipates distributing
substantially all of its investment company taxable income for each taxable
year. Those distributions will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income and
treated as dividends for federal income tax purposes.

Special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code govern the eligibility of
the Fund's dividends for the dividends-received deduction for corporate
shareholders. Long-term capital gains distributions are not eligible for the
deduction. The amount of dividends paid by the Fund that may qualify for the
deduction is limited to the aggregate amount of qualifying dividends that the
Fund derives from portfolio investments that the Fund has held for a minimum
period, usually 46 days. A corporate shareholder will not be eligible for the
deduction on dividends paid on Fund shares held for 45 days or less. To the
extent the Fund's dividends are derived from gross income from option premiums,
interest income or short-term gains from the sale of securities or dividends
from foreign corporations, those dividends will not qualify for the deduction.

The Fund may either retain or distribute to shareholders its net capital
gain for each taxable year. The Fund currently intends to distribute any such
amounts. If net long term capital gains are distributed and designated as a
capital gain distribution, it will be taxable to shareholders as a long-term
capital gain and will be properly identified in reports sent to shareholders in
January of each year. Such treatment will apply no matter how long the
shareholder has held his or her shares or whether that gain was recognized by
the Fund before the shareholder acquired his or her shares.

If the Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, the Fund will be
subject to tax on it at the 35% corporate tax rate. If the Fund elects to retain
its net capital gain, the Fund will provide to shareholders of record on the
last day of its taxable year information regarding their pro rata share of the
gain and tax paid. As a result, each shareholder will be required to report his
or her pro rata share of such gain on their tax return as long-term capital
gain, will receive a refundable tax credit for his/her pro rata share of tax
paid by the Fund on the gain, and will increase the tax basis for his/her shares
by an amount equal to the deemed distribution less the tax credit.

Investment income that may be received by the Fund from sources within
foreign countries may be subject to foreign taxes withheld at the source. The
United States has entered into tax treaties with many foreign countries which
entitle the Fund to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, taxes on such income.

Distributions by the Fund that do not constitute ordinary income dividends
or capital gain distributions will be treated as a return of capital to the
extent of the shareholder's tax basis in their shares. Any excess will be
treated as gain from the sale of those shares, as discussed below. Shareholders
will be advised annually as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of
distributions made (or deemed made) during the year. If prior distributions made
by the Fund must be re-characterized as a non-taxable return of capital at the
end of the fiscal year as a result of the effect of the Fund's investment
policies, they will be identified as such in notices sent to shareholders.

Distributions by the Fund will be treated in the manner described above
regardless of whether the distributions are paid in cash or reinvested in
additional shares of the Fund (or of another fund). Shareholders receiving a
distribution in the form of additional shares will be treated as receiving a
distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares received,
determined as of the reinvestment date.

The Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold 28% of ordinary
income dividends, capital gains distributions and the proceeds of the redemption
of shares, paid to any shareholder (1) who has failed to provide a correct
taxpayer identification number or to properly certify that number when required,
(2) who is subject to backup withholding for failure to report the receipt of
interest or dividend income properly, or (3) who has failed to certify to the
Fund that the shareholder is not subject to backup withholding or is an "exempt
recipient" (such as a corporation). All income and any tax withheld by the Fund
is remitted by the Fund to the U.S. Treasury and is identified in reports mailed
to shareholders in January of each year.

|X| Tax Effects of Redemptions of Shares. If a shareholder redeems all or
a portion of his/her shares, the shareholder will recognize a gain or loss on
the redeemed shares in an amount equal to the difference between the proceeds of
the redeemed shares and the shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the shares. All
or a portion of any loss recognized in that manner may be disallowed if the
shareholder purchases other shares of the Fund within 30 days before or after
the redemption.

In general, any gain or loss arising from the redemption of shares of the
Fund will be considered capital gain or loss, if the shares were held as a
capital asset. It will be long-term capital gain or loss if the shares were held
for more than one year. However, any capital loss arising from the redemption of
shares held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss
to the extent of the amount of capital gain dividends received on those shares.
Special holding period rules under the Internal Revenue Code apply in this case
to determine the holding period of shares and there are limits on the
deductibility of capital losses in any year.

|X| Foreign Shareholders. Under U.S. tax law, taxation of a shareholder
who is a foreign person (to include, but not limited to, a nonresident alien
individual, a foreign trust, a foreign estate, a foreign corporation, or a
foreign partnership) primarily depends on whether the foreign person's income
from the Fund is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or
business. Typically, ordinary income dividends paid from a mutual fund are not
considered "effectively connected" income.

Ordinary income dividends that are paid by the Fund (and are deemed not
"effectively connected income") to foreign persons will be subject to a U.S. tax
withheld by the Fund at a rate of 30%, provided the Fund obtains a properly
completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status. The tax rate may be reduced
if the foreign person's country of residence has a tax treaty with the U.S.
allowing for a reduced tax rate on ordinary income dividends paid by the Fund.
All income and any tax withheld by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S.
Treasury and is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in March of each
year.

If the ordinary income dividends from the Fund are effectively connected
with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign person may claim
an exemption from the U.S. tax described above provided the Fund obtains a
properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status.

If the foreign person fails to provide a certification of his/her foreign
status, the Fund will be required to withhold U.S. tax at a rate of 28% on
ordinary income dividends, capital gains distributions and the proceeds of the
redemption of shares, paid to any foreign person. All income and any tax
withheld (in this situation) by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S.
Treasury and is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each
year.

The tax consequences to foreign persons entitled to claim the benefits of
an applicable tax treaty may be different from those described herein. Foreign
shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors or the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an
investment in the Fund, including the applicability of the U.S. withholding
taxes described above.

Dividend Reinvestment in Another Fund. Shareholders of the Fund may elect to
reinvest all dividends and/or capital gains distributions in shares of the same
class of any of the other Oppenheimer funds listed above. Reinvestment will be
made without sales charge at the net asset value per share in effect at the
close of business on the payable date of the dividend or distribution. However,
such reinvestment will not be protected by the Financial Warranty and will
result in a reduction of the shareholder's Warranty Amount. To elect this
option, the shareholder must notify the Transfer Agent in writing and must have
an existing account in the fund selected for reinvestment. Otherwise the
shareholder first must obtain a prospectus for that fund and an application from
the Distributor to establish an account. Dividends and/or distributions from
shares of certain other Oppenheimer funds (other than Oppenheimer Cash Reserves)
may be invested in shares of this Fund on the same basis.

Additional Information About the Fund

The Distributor. The Fund's shares are sold through dealers, brokers and other
financial institutions that have a sales agreement with OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., a subsidiary of the Manager that acts as the Fund's
Distributor. The Distributor also distributes shares of the other Oppenheimer
funds and is sub-distributor for funds managed by a subsidiary of the Manager.

The Transfer Agent. OppenheimerFunds Services, the Fund's Transfer Agent, is a
division of the Manager. It is responsible for maintaining the Fund's
shareholder registry and shareholder accounting records, and for paying
dividends and distributions to shareholders. It also handles shareholder
servicing and administrative functions. It serves as the Transfer Agent for an
annual per account fee. It also acts as shareholder servicing agent for the
other Oppenheimer funds. Shareholders should direct inquiries about their
accounts to the Transfer Agent at the address and toll-free numbers shown on the
back cover.

The Warranty Provider. Merrill Lynch Bank USA, located at 15 West South Temple

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund, a series of Oppenheimer
Principal Protected Trust, including the statement of investments, as of August
31, 2003, and the related statement of operations from June 2, 2003 to August
31, 2003, the statement of changes in net assets from June 2, 2003 to August 31,
2003, and the financial highlights from June 2, 2003 to August 31, 2003. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of August 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provided a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund as of August 31, 2003, the
results of its operations from June 2, 2003 to August 31, 2003, the changes in
its net assets from June 2, 2003 to August 31, 2003, and the financial
highlights from June 2, 2003 to August 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund (the Fund), a series of
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Trust, is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Fund seeks capital preservation in order to have a net asset value on the
Maturity Date at least equal to your original investment (the Warranty Amount)
(net of any sales charges and less your share of extraordinary expenses and the
proportional reduction of dividends paid in cash and redemption of the Fund
shares). The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).

Shares of the Fund were offered during the Offering Period (June 2, 2003 to
July 31, 2003). Shares are not offered during the Warranty Period (August 5,
2003 to August 5, 2010) to the Maturity Date (August 5, 2010) except in
connection with reinvestment of dividends and distributions. During the Warranty
Period, the Fund will seek capital preservation, and secondarily high total
return by allocating its assets between Oppenheimer Main Street Fund and certain
U.S. government securities.

The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares. Class A shares
are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a
front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are sold without a
front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
(CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans
that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. All classes of
shares have identical rights and voting privileges. Earnings, net assets and net
asset value per share may differ by minor amounts due to each class having its
own expenses directly attributable to that class. Classes A, B, C and N have
separate distribution and/or service plans. Class B shares will automatically
convert to Class A shares 88 months after the date of purchase.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Warranty Agreement. The Fund has entered into a Financial Warranty Agreement
with Merrill Lynch Bank USA (the Warranty Provider) to try to make sure that on
the Maturity Date each shareholder's account will be no less than the value of
that shareholder's account on the second business day after the end of the
Offering Period. This value will include net income, if any, earned by the Fund
during the offering period and reduced by adjustments permitted under the
Warranty Agreement, sales charges, applicable share of extraordinary expenses
and proportionately reduced for dividends and distributions paid in cash and
redemptions of Fund shares. To avoid a reduced warranty amount, shareholders
must reinvest all dividends and distributions received from the Fund to purchase
additional shares of the Fund and must not redeem any shares of the Fund during
the Warranty Period. If the value of the Fund's assets on the Maturity Date is
insufficient to result in the value of each shareholder's account being at least
equal to the shareholder's Warranty Amount, the Warranty Provider will pay the
Fund an amount equal to his or her Warranty Amount.

12 | OPPENHEIMER PRINCIPAL PROTECTED MAIN STREET FUND

The Financial Warranty is solely the obligation of the Warranty Provider. It
is possible that the financial position of the Warranty Provider may deteriorate
and it would be unable to satisfy its obligations under the Financial Warranty.
The Fund's assets and the obligations of the Warranty Provider under the
Warranty Agreement are not guaranteed by Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., the United
States Government, the Manager, or any other entity or person.

The Warranty Agreement requires the Manager to comply with certain agreed
upon investment parameters in an attempt to limit the Fund's risk. If the Fund
fails to comply with the agreed-upon investment parameters or otherwise fails to
comply with certain requirements set forth in the Warranty Agreement, the
Warranty Provider may terminate its Financial Warranty in certain limited
circumstances. The Warranty Provider may monitor the Fund's compliance with the
Warranty Agreement solely to protect the interests of the Warranty Provider and
not the Fund's shareholders.

The fee paid to the Warranty Provider is an annual fee of 0.60% of the
average daily net assets of the Fund. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003,
the amount accrued for Warranty Agreement fees was $117,467.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. The allocation of the Fund's assets between the debt
portfolio and the equity portfolio will vary over time based upon the Warranty
Formula. The formula is intended to allow the Fund to have a net asset value on
the Maturity Date at least equal to the Warranty Amount.

During the Warranty Period, the Fund will invest a portion of its assets, and
in certain circumstances, the Fund may invest all of its assets, in U.S.
government securities having maturity approximately equal to the period
remaining in the Warranty Period. Long-term and short-term "non-money market"
debt securities are valued by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Board
of Trustees.

The Fund invests the equity portfolio in Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Main
Street Fund (the Underlying Fund). The net asset value of the Underlying Fund is
determined as of the close of The New York Exchange, on each day the Exchange is
open for trading. The net asset value per share is determined by dividing the
value of the Fund's net assets attributable to a class by the number of shares
of that class that are outstanding.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint Repurchase Agreements. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other affiliated funds
advised by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading
accounts on a daily basis. Secured by U.S. government securities, these balances
are invested in one or more repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as
collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the
agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the
collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. In the
event of default by the other party to the agreement, retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a
daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net
realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any,
to shareholders, therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is
required.

The tax components of capital shown in the table below represent distribution
requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the
Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years and
unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investment for federal income tax
purposes.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
$136,858 $-- $-- $7,430,521

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for
financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and
distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net
realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal
income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the
fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in
which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund. Accordingly, the
following amounts have been reclassified for August 31, 2003. Net assets of the
Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

1. $6,874 was distributed in connection with Fund share redemptions.

No distributions were paid during the period ended August 31, 2003.
The aggregate cost of investments and the composition of unrealized
appreciation and depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes as
of August 31, 2003 are noted below. The primary difference between book and tax
appreciation or depreciation of investments, if applicable, is attributable to
the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized
gain or loss.

Gross unrealized appreciation $ 7,504,081
Gross unrealized depreciation (73,560)
------------
Net unrealized appreciation $ 7,430,521
============

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if
any, are declared and paid annually.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and amortization
of premium, is accrued as earned.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Expense Offset Arrangement. The reduction of custodian fees represents earnings
on cash balances maintained by the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest

2. Costs incurred by the Fund for obtaining the Warranty Agreement for the
benefit of share purchases during the Offering Period were $171,068, and are
included in Paid-in Capital.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other
than short-term obligations, for the period ended August 31, 2003, were
$275,194,144 and $15,988,521, respectively.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee at an
annual rate of 0.50% of the average annual net assets of the Fund, reduced by
the amount of advisory fees paid to the Manager by Oppenheimer Main Street Fund
relating to the Fund's assets invested in Oppenheimer Main Street Fund, but not
below zero. That fee will apply during the Warranty Period and the Post-Warranty
Period. If during the Warranty Period 100% of the Fund's assets are completely
and irreversibly invested in the debt portfolio, the management fee will be at
an annual rate of 0.25% of the average annual net assets of the Fund, and if
that occurs the Manager will further reduce its management fee to the extent
necessary so that total annual operating expenses of the Fund (other than
Extraordinary Expenses such as litigation costs) do not exceed 1.30% for Class A
shares, 2.05% for Class B shares, 2.05% for Class C shares and 1.55% for Class N
shares. However, if this reduction in the management fee is not sufficient to
reduce total annual operating expenses to these limits, the Manager is not
required to subsidize Fund expenses to assure that expenses do not exceed those
limits. Furthermore, if expenses exceed these expense limits, the Warranty
Amount will be reduced by any expenses that exceed those limits. In addition,
during the Warranty Period the Manager has voluntarily agreed to reduce the
management fee payable by the Fund by 0.00833% per month in any month following
a month where the Fund's average daily equity allocation was less than 10%.
Those voluntary undertakings may be amended or eliminated at any time.

16 | OPPENHEIMER PRINCIPAL PROTECTED MAIN STREET FUND

The Manager has voluntarily undertaken to reimburse the Fund for expenses
equal to the Underlying Fund expenses, other than Underlying Fund management
fees, paid by the Fund as a shareholder of the Underlying Fund. That expense
reimbursement will fluctuate as the Fund's allocation between the Underlying
Fund and the debt portfolio changes. This voluntary undertaking may be amended
or eliminated at any time.
The Manager waived or reimbursed most Fund expenses, other than 12b-1
expenses, incurred during the Offering Period. In addition, during the Offering
Period, the Manager reimbursed the Fund an amount equal to expenses to maintain
a yield of not less than zero, for all share classes. These voluntary
undertakings were ended on August 4, 2003.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays
OFS a per account fee. For the period ended August 31, 2003, the Fund paid
$14,646 to OFS for services to the Fund.
OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees for all classes, up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets per
class. This undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Offering and Organizational Costs. The Manager paid all offering and
organizational costs associated with the registration and seeding of the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor's
Agreement with the Manager, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)

The compensation paid to (or retained by) the Distributor from the sale of
shares or on the redemption of shares is shown in the table below for the period

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
Shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for
services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made
quarterly at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of
Class A shares of the Fund. For the period ended August 31, 2003, expense under

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund
has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
shares. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based
sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B shares and on Class C shares and the
Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.25% per year
on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year
under each plan.

5. Borrowing and Lending Arrangements
The Fund entered into an "interfund borrowing and lending arrangement" with
other funds in the Oppenheimer funds complex, to allow funds to borrow for
liquidity purposes. The arrangement was initiated pursuant to exemptive relief
granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to allow these affiliated
funds to lend money to, and borrow money from, each other, in an attempt to
reduce borrowing costs below those of bank loan facilities. Under the
arrangement the Fund may lend money to other Oppenheimer funds and may borrow
from other Oppenheimer funds at a rate set by the Fund's Board of Trustees,
based upon a recommendation by the Manager. The Fund's borrowings, if any, are
subject to asset coverage requirements under the Investment Company Act and the
provisions of the SEC order and other applicable regulations. If the Fund

Appendix B

OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class A
shares1 of the Oppenheimer funds or the contingent deferred sales charge that
may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.2 That is because
of the economies of sales efforts realized by OppenheimerFunds Distributor,
Inc., (referred to in this document as the "Distributor"), or by dealers or
other financial institutions that offer those shares to certain classes of
investors.

Not all waivers apply to all funds. For example, waivers relating to Retirement
Plans do not apply to Oppenheimer municipal funds, because shares of those funds
are not available for purchase by or on behalf of retirement plans. Other
waivers apply only to shareholders of certain funds.

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds, the
term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
1) plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code, 2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans, 3) employee
benefit plans3 4) Group Retirement Plans4 5) 403(b)(7) custodial plan
accounts 6) Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), including
traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs,
SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs or SIMPLE plans

The interpretation of these provisions as to the applicability of a special
arrangement or waiver in a particular case is in the sole discretion of the
Distributor or the transfer agent (referred to in this document as the "Transfer
Agent") of the particular Oppenheimer fund. These waivers and special
arrangements may be amended or terminated at any time by a particular fund, the
Distributor, and/or OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (referred to in this document as the
"Manager").

Waivers that apply at the time shares are redeemed must be requested by the
shareholder and/or dealer in the redemption request.

I. Applicability of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in Certain Cases
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Purchases of Class A Shares of Oppenheimer Funds That Are Not Subject to Initial
Sales Charge but May Be Subject to the Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
(unless a waiver applies).

There is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of any of
the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases may be
subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within 18
months (24 months in the case of Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals and
Rochester Fund Municipals) of the beginning of the calendar month of their
purchase, as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver described elsewhere in
this Appendix applies to the redemption). Additionally, on shares purchased
under these waivers that are subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales
charge, the Distributor will pay the applicable concession described in the
Prospectus under "Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge."5 This waiver
provision applies to:
|_| Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
|_| Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
(other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
purchases of $200,000 or more.
|_| Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the
purchases are made: 1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered
investment adviser that has made
special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases, or 2)
by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified Retirement Plan
if the
administrator of that Plan has made special arrangements with the
Distributor for those purchases.
|_| Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
following record-keeping arrangements: 1) The record keeping is
performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc.
("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the Retirement
Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the record-keeping service
agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan must have $3 million or more
of its assets invested in (a) mutual funds, other than those advised
or managed by Merrill Lynch Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"),
that are made available under a Service Agreement between Merrill
Lynch and the mutual fund's principal underwriter or distributor,
and (b) funds advised or managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a)
and (b) are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a daily
valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are provided under
a contract or arrangement between the Retirement Plan and Merrill
Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the record keeping service
agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan must have $3 million or more
of its assets (excluding assets invested in money market funds)
invested in Applicable Investments.
3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a service
agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date the plan sponsor signs
that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible employees (as
determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion manager).

Appendix C

Information About the Underlying Fund

Additional Information About the Underlying Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

The investment objective, the principal investment policies and the main risks
of the Oppenheimer Main Street Fund(R) (the "Underlying Fund") are described in
the Underlying Fund's Prospectus as well as the Prospectus for Oppenheimer
Principal Protected Main Street Fund. This Appendix C contains supplemental
information about those policies and risks and the types of securities that the
Underlying Fund's investment Manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., can select for the
Underlying Fund. Additional information is also provided about the strategies
that the Underlying Fund can use to try to achieve its objective.

The Underlying Fund's Principal Investment Policies. The composition of the
Underlying Fund's portfolio and the techniques and strategies that the
Underlying Fund's Manager can use in selecting portfolio securities will vary
over time. The Underlying Fund is not required to use any of the investment
techniques and strategies described below at all times in seeking its goal. It
can use some of the special investment techniques and strategies at some times
or not at all.

|X| Investments in Equity Securities. The Underlying Fund does not limit
its investments in equity securities to issuers having a market capitalization
of a specified size or range, and therefore can invest in securities of small-,
mid- and large-capitalization issuers. At times, the Underlying Fund can focus
its equity investments in securities of one or more capitalization ranges, based
upon the Manager's judgment of where the best market opportunities are to seek
the Underlying Fund's objective. At times, the market may favor or disfavor
securities of issuers of a particular capitalization range. Securities of small
capitalization issuers may be subject to greater price volatility in general
than securities of larger companies. Therefore, if the Underlying Fund is
focusing on or has substantial investments in smaller capitalization companies
at times of market volatility, the Underlying Fund's share prices may fluctuate
more than that of funds focusing on larger capitalization issuers.

|_| Rights and Warrants. The Underlying Fund can invest up to 10% of
its total assets in warrants or rights, although the Underlying Fund does not
currently intend to invest more than 5% of its total assets in warrants or
rights. Warrants basically are options to purchase equity securities at specific
prices valid for a specific period of time. Their prices do not necessarily move
parallel to the prices of the underlying securities. Rights are similar to
warrants, but normally have a short duration and are distributed directly by the
issuer to its shareholders. Rights and warrants have no voting rights, receive
no dividends and have no rights with respect to the assets of the issuer.

|_| Convertible Securities. Convertible securities are debt securities
that are convertible into an issuer's common stock. Convertible securities rank
senior to common stock in a corporation's capital structure and therefore are
subject to less risk than common stock in case of the issuer's bankruptcy or
liquidation.

The value of a convertible security is a function of its "investment
value" and its "conversion value." If the investment value exceeds the
conversion value, the security will behave more like a debt security, and the
security's price will likely increase when interest rates fall and decrease when
interest rates rise. If the conversion value exceeds the investment value, the
security will behave more like an equity security. In that case, it will likely
sell at a premium over its conversion value, and its price will tend to
fluctuate directly with the price of the underlying security.

While some convertible securities are a form of debt security, in many
cases their conversion feature (allowing conversion into equity securities)
caused them to be regarded by the Manager more as "equity equivalents." As a
result, the rating assigned to the security has less impact on the Manager's
investment decision than in the case of non-convertible fixed-income securities.

To determine whether convertible securities should be regarded as "equity
equivalents," the Manager examines the following factors: o whether, at the
option of the investor, the convertible security can be exchanged for
a fixed number of shares of common stock of the issuer,
o whether the issuer of the convertible securities has restated its
earnings per share of common stock on a fully diluted basis
(considering the effect of conversion of the convertible securities),
and
o the extent to which the convertible security may be a defensive "equity
substitute," providing the ability to participate in any appreciation
in the price of the issuer's common stock.

|X| Investments in Bonds and Other Debt Securities. The Underlying Fund
can invest in bonds, debentures and other debt securities to seek its investment
objective. Because the Underlying Fund currently emphasizes investments in
equity securities, such as stocks, it is not anticipated that significant
amounts of the Underlying Fund's assets will be invested in debt securities.
However, if market conditions suggest that debt securities may offer better
total return opportunities than stocks, or if the Manager determines to seek a
higher amount of current income to distribute to shareholders, the Manager can
shift more of the Underlying Fund's investments into debt securities.

The Underlying Fund's debt investments can include investment-grade and
non-investment-grade bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").
Investment-grade bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc., or at least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Corporation or Fitch,
Inc., or that have comparable ratings by another nationally-recognized rating
organization. In making investments in debt securities, the Manager can rely to
some extent on the ratings of ratings organizations or it can use its own
research to evaluate a security's credit-worthiness. If the securities that the
Underlying Fund buys are unrated, to be considered part of the Underlying Fund's
holdings of investment-grade securities, they must be judged by the Manager to
be of comparable quality to bonds rated as investment grade by a rating
organization.

|_| U.S. Government Securities. The Underlying Fund can buy securities
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and
instrumentalities. Securities issued by the U.S. Treasury are backed by the full
faith and credit of the U.S. government and are subject to very little credit
risk. Obligations of U.S. government agencies or instrumentalities (including
mortgage-backed securities) may or may not be guaranteed or supported by the
"full faith and credit" of the United States. Some are backed by the right of
the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; others, by discretionary authority
of the U.S. government to purchase the agencies' obligations; while others are
supported only by the credit of the instrumentality. If a security is not backed
by the full faith and credit of the United States, the owner of the security
must look principally to the agency issuing the obligation for repayment and may
not be able to assert a claim against the United States in the event that the
agency or instrumentality does not meet its commitment. The Underlying Fund will
invest in securities of U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities only when
the Manager is satisfied that the credit risk with respect to the agency or
instrumentality is minimal.

|_| Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. While it is not
anticipated that the Underlying Fund will invest a substantial portion of its
assets in debt securities, the Underlying Fund can do so to seek current income.
Because lower-rated securities tend to offer higher yields than investment grade
securities, the Underlying Fund can invest in lower grade securities if the
Manager is trying to achieve greater income (and, in some cases, the
appreciation possibilities of lower-grade securities may be a reason they are
selected for the Underlying Fund's portfolio).

The Underlying Fund can invest up to 25% of its total assets in "lower
grade" debt securities. However, the Underlying Fund does not currently intend
to invest more that 10% of its total assets in lower grade debt securities.
"Lower-grade" debt securities are those rated below "investment grade" which
means they have a rating lower than "Baa" by Moody's or lower than "BBB" by
Standard & Poor's or Fitch, Inc., or similar ratings by other rating
organizations. If they are unrated, and are determined by the Manager to be of
comparable quality to debt securities rated below investment grade, they are
included in the limitation on the percentage of the Underlying Fund's assets
that can be invested in lower-grade securities. The Underlying Fund can invest
in securities rated as low as "C" or "D" or which may be in default at the time
the Underlying Fund buys them.

Some of the special credit risks of lower-grade securities are discussed
in the Prospectus. There is a greater risk that the issuer may default on its
obligation to pay interest or to repay principal than in the case of investment
grade securities. The issuer's low creditworthiness may increase the potential
for its insolvency. An overall decline in values in the high yield bond market
is also more likely during a period of a general economic downturn. An economic
downturn or an increase in interest rates could severely disrupt the market for
high yield bonds, adversely affecting the values of outstanding bonds as well as
the ability of issuers to pay interest or repay principal. In the case of
foreign high yield bonds, these risks are in addition to the special risk of
foreign investing discussed in the Prospectus and in this Statement of
Additional Information.

However, the Underlying Fund's limitations on buying these investments can
reduce the effect of those risks to the Underlying Fund, as will the Underlying
Fund's policy of diversifying its investments. Additionally, to the extent they
can be converted into stock, convertible securities may be less subject to some
of these risks than non-convertible high yield bonds, since stock may be more
liquid and less affected by some of these risk factors. The Underlying Fund may
not invest more than 10% of its total assets in lower-grade debt securities that
are not convertible.

While securities rated "Baa" by Moody's or "BBB" by Standard & Poor's or
Fitch, Inc. are investment grade and are not regarded as junk bonds, those
securities may be subject to special risks, and have some speculative
characteristics. Definitions of the debt security ratings categories of Moody's,
S&P, and Fitch, Inc. are included in Appendix A to this Statement of Additional
Information.

|X| Foreign Securities. The Underlying Fund can purchase equity and debt
securities issued or guaranteed by foreign companies or foreign governments or
their agencies. "Foreign securities" include equity and debt securities of
companies organized under the laws of countries other than the United States and
debt securities of foreign governments. They may be traded on foreign securities
exchanges or in the foreign over-the-counter markets.

Securities of foreign issuers that are represented by American Depository
Receipts or that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange or traded in the U.S.
over-the-counter markets are not considered "foreign securities" for the purpose
of the Underlying Fund's investment allocations. That is because they are not
subject to many of the special considerations and risks, discussed below, that
apply to foreign securities traded and held abroad.

Investing in foreign securities offers potential benefits not available
from investing solely in securities of domestic issuers. They include the
opportunity to invest in foreign issuers that appear to offer growth potential,
or in foreign countries with economic policies or business cycles different from
those of the U.S., or to reduce fluctuations in portfolio value by taking
advantage of foreign stock markets that do not move in a manner parallel to U.S.
markets. The Underlying Fund will hold foreign currency only in connection with
the purchase or sale of foreign securities.

|_| Risks of Foreign Investing. Investments in foreign securities may
offer special opportunities for investing but also present special additional
risks and considerations not typically associated with investments in domestic
securities. Some of these additional risks are:

o reduction of income by foreign taxes;
o fluctuation in value of foreign investments due to changes in currency rates or
currency control regulations (for example, currency blockage);
o transaction charges for currency exchange;
o lack of public information about foreign issuers;
o lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards in foreign
countries comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers;
less volume on foreign exchanges than on U.S. exchanges;
o greater volatility and less liquidity on foreign markets than in the U.S.;
o less governmental regulation of foreign issuers, stock exchanges and brokers than in
the U.S.;
o greater difficulties in commencing lawsuits;
o higher brokerage commission rates than in the U.S.;
o increased risks of delays in settlement of portfolio transactions or loss of
certificates for portfolio securities;
o possibilities in some countries of expropriation, confiscatory taxation, political,
financial or social instability or adverse diplomatic developments; and
o unfavorable differences between the U.S. economy and foreign economies.

In the past, U.S. government policies have discouraged certain investments
abroad by U.S. investors, through taxation or other restrictions, and it is
possible that such restrictions could be re-imposed.

|X| Passive Foreign Investment Companies. The Underlying Fund may purchase
the securities of certain foreign investment corporations called passive foreign
investment companies ("PFICs"). Such entities have been the only or primary way
to invest in certain countries because some foreign countries limit, or
prohibit, all direct foreign investment in the securities of companies domiciled
therein. However, the governments of some countries have authorized the
organization of investment funds to permit indirect foreign investment in such
securities. For tax purposes, these funds also may be PFICs.

The Underlying Fund is subject to certain percentage limitations under the
1940 Act relating to the purchase of securities of investment companies, and,
consequently, the Underlying Fund may have to subject any of its investment in
other investment companies, including PFICs, to the limitation that no more than
10% of the value of the Underlying Fund's total assets may be invested in such
securities. In addition to bearing their proportionate share of a fund's
expenses (management fees and operating expenses), shareholders will also
indirectly bear similar expenses of such entities. Like other foreign
securities, interests in PFICs also involve the risk of foreign securities, as
described above.

|X| Portfolio Turnover. "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at which
the Underlying Fund traded its portfolio securities during its previous fiscal
year. For example, if a fund sold all of its securities during the year, its
portfolio turnover rate would have been 100%. The Underlying Fund's portfolio
turnover rate will fluctuate from year to year, and the Underlying Fund can have
a portfolio turnover rate of 100% or more. Increased portfolio turnover creates
higher brokerage and transaction costs for the Underlying Fund, which may reduce
its overall performance. Additionally, the realization of capital gains from
selling portfolio securities may result in distributions of taxable long-term
capital gains to shareholders, since the Underlying Fund will normally
distribute all of its capital gains realized each year, to avoid excise taxes
under the Internal Revenue Code. The Financial Highlights table at the end of
the Prospectus shows the Underlying Fund's portfolio turnover rates during prior
fiscal years.

Other Investment Techniques and Strategies. In seeking its objective, the
Underlying Fund can from time to time use the types of investment strategies
described below. It is not required to use all of these strategies at all times
and may, at times, not use any of them.

|X| Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies. The Underlying Fund can
invest in securities of small, unseasoned companies. These are companies that
have been in operation for less than three years, including the operations of
any predecessors. Securities of these companies may be subject to volatility in
their prices. They may have a limited trading market, which may adversely affect
the Underlying Fund's ability to dispose of them and can reduce the price the
Underlying Fund might be able to obtain for them. Other investors that own a
security issued by a small, unseasoned issuer for which there is limited
liquidity might trade the security when the Underlying Fund is attempting to
dispose of its holdings of that security. In that case the Underlying Fund might
receive a lower price for its holdings than might otherwise be obtained. The
Underlying Fund currently intends to invest no more than 5% of its net assets in
securities of small, unseasoned issuers.

|X| When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Underlying Fund can
invest in securities on a "when-issued" basis and can purchase or sell
securities on a "delayed-delivery" basis. When-issued and delayed-delivery are
terms that refer to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for
which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery.

When such transactions are negotiated, the price (which is generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made. Delivery
and payment for the securities take place at a later date. The securities are
subject to change in value from market fluctuations during the period until
settlement. The value at delivery may be less than the purchase price. For
example, changes in interest rates in a direction other than that expected by
the Manager before settlement will affect the value of such securities and may
cause a loss to the Underlying Fund. During the period between purchase and
settlement, no payment is made by the Underlying Fund to the issuer and no
interest accrues to the Underlying Fund from the investment.

The Underlying Fund will engage in when-issued transactions to secure what
the Manager considers to be an advantageous price and yield at the time of
entering into the obligation. When the Underlying Fund enters into a when-issued
or delayed-delivery transaction, it relies on the other party to complete the
transaction. Its failure to do so may cause the Underlying Fund to lose the
opportunity to obtain the security at a price and yield the Manager considers to
be advantageous.

When the Underlying Fund engages in when-issued and delayed-delivery
transactions, it does so for the purpose of acquiring or selling securities
consistent with its investment objective and policies or for delivery pursuant
to options contracts it has entered into, and not for the purpose of investment
leverage. Although the Underlying Fund will enter into delayed-delivery or
when-issued purchase transactions to acquire securities, it can dispose of a
commitment prior to settlement. If the Underlying Fund chooses to dispose of the
right to acquire a when-issued security prior to its acquisition or to dispose
of its right to delivery or receive against a forward commitment, it may incur a
gain or loss.

At the time the Underlying Fund makes the commitment to purchase or sell a
security on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis, it records the transaction
on its books and reflects the value of the security purchased in determining the
Underlying Fund's net asset value. In a sale transaction, it records the
proceeds to be received. The Underlying Fund will identify on its books liquid
securities of any type at least equal in value to the value of the Underlying
Fund's purchase commitments until the Underlying Fund pays for the investment.

When issued and delayed-delivery transactions can be used by the
Underlying Fund as a defensive technique to hedge against anticipated changes in
interest rates and prices. For instance, in periods of rising interest rates and
falling prices, the Underlying Fund might sell securities in its portfolio on a
forward commitment basis to attempt to limit its exposure to anticipated falling
prices. In periods of falling interest rates and rising prices, the Underlying
Fund might sell portfolio securities and purchase the same or similar securities
on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis to obtain the benefit of currently
higher cash yields.

Investment in Other Investment Companies. The Underlying Fund can also invest in
the securities of other investment companies, which can include open-end funds,
closed-end funds and unit investment trusts, subject to the limits set forth in
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act") that apply to
those types of investments. For example, the Underlying Fund can invest in
Exchange-Traded Funds, which are typically open-end funds or unit investment
trusts, listed on a stock exchange. The Underlying Fund might do so as a way of
gaining exposure to the segments of the equity or fixed-income markets
represented by the Exchange-Traded Funds' portfolio, at times when the
Underlying Fund may not be able to buy those portfolio securities directly. As a
non-fundamental policy, the Underlying Fund cannot invest in the securities of
other registered open-end investment companies or registered unit investment
trusts in reliance on sub-paragraph (F) or (G) of section 12(d)(1) of the
Investment Company Act.

Investing in another investment company may involve the payment of
substantial premiums above the value of such investment company's portfolio
securities and is subject to limitations under the Investment Company Act. The
Underlying Fund does not intend to invest in other investment companies unless
the Manager believes that the potential benefits of the investment justify the
payment of any premiums or sales charges. As a shareholder of an investment
company, the Underlying Fund would be subject to its ratable share of that
investment company's expenses, including its advisory and administration
expenses. The Underlying Fund does not anticipate investing a substantial amount
of its net assets in shares of other investment companies.

|X| Repurchase Agreements. The Underlying Fund can acquire securities
subject to repurchase agreements. It may do so for liquidity purposes to meet
anticipated redemptions of Underlying Fund shares, or pending the investment of
the proceeds from sales of Underlying Fund shares, or pending the settlement of
portfolio securities transactions.

In a repurchase transaction, the Underlying Fund buys a security from, and
simultaneously resells it to, an approved vendor for delivery on an agreed-upon
future date. The resale price exceeds the purchase price by an amount that
reflects an agreed-upon interest rate effective for the period during which the
repurchase agreement is in effect. Approved vendors include U.S. commercial
banks, U.S. branches of foreign banks, or broker-dealers that have been
designated as primary dealers in government securities. They must meet credit
requirements set by the Manager from time to time.

The majority of these transactions run from day to day, and delivery
pursuant to the resale typically occurs within one to five days of the purchase.
Repurchase agreements having a maturity beyond seven days are subject to the
Underlying Fund's limits on holding illiquid investments. The Underlying Fund
will not enter into a repurchase agreement having a maturity beyond seven days
that causes more than 10% of its net assets to exceed that limit. There is no
limit on the amount of the Underlying Fund's net assets that may be subject to
repurchase agreements having maturities of seven days or less.

Repurchase agreements, considered "loans" under the Investment Company
Act, are collateralized by the underlying security. The Underlying Fund's
repurchase agreements require that at all times while the repurchase agreement
is in effect, the value of the collateral must equal or exceed the repurchase
price to fully collateralize the repayment obligation. However, if the vendor
fails to pay the resale price on the delivery date, the Underlying Fund may
incur costs in disposing of the collateral and may experience losses if there is
any delay in its ability to do so. The Manager will monitor the vendor's
creditworthiness to confirm that the vendor is financially sound and will
continuously monitor the collateral's value.

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Underlying Fund,
along with other affiliated mutual funds managed by the Manager, may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint repurchase accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements, secured by U.S.
government securities. Securities that are pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each joint
repurchase arrangement requires that the market value of the collateral be
sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal; however, in the event of
default by the other party to the agreement, retention or sale of the collateral
may be subject to legal proceedings.

|X| Illiquid and Restricted Securities. To enable the Underlying Fund to
sell its holdings of a restricted security not registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, the Underlying Fund may have to cause those securities to be
registered. The expenses of registering restricted securities may be negotiated
by the Underlying Fund with the issuer at the time the Underlying Fund buys the
securities. When the Underlying Fund must arrange registration because the
Underlying Fund wishes to sell the security, a considerable period may elapse
between the time the decision is made to sell the security and the time the
security is registered so that the Underlying Fund could sell it. The Underlying
Fund would bear the risks of any downward price fluctuation during that period.

The Underlying Fund can also acquire restricted securities through private
placements. Those securities have contractual restrictions on their public
resale. Those restrictions might limit the Underlying Fund's ability to value or
to dispose of the securities and might lower the amount the Underlying Fund
could realize upon the sale.

The Underlying Fund has limitations that apply to purchases of restricted
securities, as stated in the Prospectus. Those percentage restrictions do not
limit purchases of restricted securities that are eligible for sale to qualified
institutional purchasers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, if those
securities have been determined to be liquid by the Manager under Board-approved
guidelines. Those guidelines take into account the trading activity for such
securities and the availability of reliable pricing information, among other
factors. If there is a lack of trading interest in a particular Rule 144A
security, the Underlying Fund's holdings of that security may be considered to
be illiquid.

Illiquid securities include repurchase agreements maturing in more than
seven days and participation interests that do not have puts exercisable within
seven days.

|X| Loans of Portfolio Securities. The Underlying Fund can lend its
portfolio securities to certain types of eligible borrowers approved by the
Board of Directors. It may do so to try to provide income or to raise cash for
liquidity purposes. These loans are limited to not more than 25% of the value of
the Underlying Fund's total assets. There are some risks in connection with
securities lending. The Underlying Fund might experience a delay in receiving
additional collateral to secure a loan, or a delay in recovery of the loaned
securities. The Underlying Fund presently does not intend to engage in loans of
securities in the coming year.

The Underlying Fund must receive collateral for a loan. Under current
applicable regulatory requirements (which are subject to change), on each
business day the loan collateral must be at least equal to the value of the
loaned securities. It must consist of cash, bank letters of credit, securities
of the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, or other cash
equivalents in which the Underlying Fund is permitted to invest. To be
acceptable as collateral, letters of credit must obligate a bank to pay amounts
demanded by the Underlying Fund if the demand meets the terms of the letter. The
terms of the letter of credit and the issuing bank both must be satisfactory to
the Underlying Fund.

When it lends securities, the Underlying Fund receives amounts equal to
the dividends or interest on loaned securities. It also receives one or more of
(a) negotiated loan fees, (b) interest on securities used as collateral, and (c)
interest on any short-term debt securities purchased with such loan collateral.
Either type of interest may be shared with the borrower. The Underlying Fund can
also pay reasonable finder's, custodian bank and administrative fees in
connection with these loans. The terms of the Underlying Fund's loans must meet
applicable tests under the Internal Revenue Code and must permit the Underlying
Fund to reacquire loaned securities on five days' notice or in time to vote on
any important matter.

|X| Interfund Borrowing and Lending Arrangements. Consistent with its
fundamental policies and pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the
Underlying Fund may engage in borrowing and lending activities with other funds
in the OppenheimerFunds complex. Borrowing money from affiliated funds may
afford the Underlying Fund the flexibility to use the most cost-effective
alternative to satisfy its borrowing requirements. Lending money to an
affiliated fund may allow the Underlying Fund to obtain a higher rate of return
than it could from interest rates on alternative short-term investments.
Implementation of interfund lending must be accomplished consistent with
applicable regulatory requirements, including the provisions of the SEC order.

o Interfund Borrowing. The Underlying Fund will not borrow from
affiliated funds unless the terms of the borrowing arrangement are at least as
favorable as the terms the Underlying Fund could otherwise negotiate with a
third party. To assure that the Underlying Fund will not be disadvantaged by
borrowing from an affiliated fund, certain safeguards are being implemented.
Examples of these safeguards include the following: o the Underlying Fund will
not borrow money from affiliated funds unless the interest rate is more
favorable than available bank loan rates;
o the Underlying Fund's borrowing from affiliated funds must be consistent with its
investment objective and investment policies;
o the loan rates will be the average of the overnight repurchase
agreement rate available through the OppenheimerFunds joint
repurchase agreement account and a pre-established formula based on
quotations from independent banks to approximate the lowest interest
rate at which bank loans would be available to the Underlying Fund;
o if the Underlying Fund has outstanding borrowings from all sources
greater than 10% of its total assets, then the Underlying Fund must
secure each additional outstanding interfund loan by segregating
liquid assets of the Underlying Fund as collateral;
o the Underlying Fund cannot borrow from an affiliated fund in excess
of 125% of its total redemptions for the preceding seven days;
o each interfund loan may be repaid on any day by the Underlying Fund; and
o the Trustees will be provided with a report of all interfund loans and the
Trustees will monitor all such borrowings to ensure that the Underlying
Fund's participation is appropriate.

There is a risk that a borrowing fund could have a loan called on one
days' notice. In that circumstance, the Underlying Fund might have to borrow
from a bank at a higher interest cost if money to lend were not available from
another Oppenheimer fund.

o Interfund Lending. To assure that the Underlying Fund will not be
disadvantaged by making loans to affiliated funds, certain safeguards are being
implemented. Examples of these safeguards include the following:
o the Underlying Fund will not lend money to affiliated funds unless
the interest rate on such loan is determined to be reasonable under
the circumstances;
o the Underlying Fund may not make interfund loans in excess of 15% of its
net assets;
o an interfund loan to any one affiliated fund shall not exceed 5% of the
Underlying Fund's net assets;

o an interfund loan may not be outstanding for more than seven days; o each
interfund loan may be called on one business day's notice; and o the Manager
will provide the Trustees reports on all interfund loans demonstrating that the
Underlying Fund's participation is appropriate and that the loan is consistent
with its investment objectives and policies.

When the Underlying Fund lends assets to another affiliated fund, the
Underlying Fund is subject to the risk that the borrowing fund might fail to
repay the loan.

|X| Derivatives. The Underlying Fund can invest in a variety of derivative
investments to seek income or for hedging purposes. Some derivative investments
the Underlying Fund can use are the hedging instruments described below.

Other derivative investments the Underlying Fund can invest in include
"index-linked" notes. Principal and/or interest payments on these notes depend
on the performance of an underlying index. Currency-indexed securities are
another derivative the Underlying Fund can use. Typically these are short-term
or intermediate-term debt securities. Their value at maturity or the rates at
which they pay income are determined by the change in value of the U.S. dollar
against one or more foreign currencies or an index. In some cases, these
securities may pay an amount at maturity based on a multiple of the amount of
the relative currency movements. This type of index security offers the
potential for increased income or principal payments but at a greater risk of
loss than a typical debt security of the same maturity and credit quality.

Other derivative investments the Underlying Fund can use include debt
exchangeable for common stock of an issuer or "equity-linked debt securities" of
an issuer. At maturity, the debt security is exchanged for common stock of the
issuer or it is payable in an amount based on the price of the issuer's common
stock at the time of maturity. Both alternatives present a risk that the amount
payable at maturity will be less than the principal amount of the debt because
the price of the issuer's common stock might not be as high as the Manager
expected.

|X| Hedging. The Underlying Fund can use hedging to attempt to protect
against declines in the market value of the Underlying Fund's portfolio, to
permit the Underlying Fund to retain unrealized gains in the value of portfolio
securities which have appreciated, or to facilitate selling securities for
investment reasons. To do so, the Underlying Fund could:
o sell futures contracts,
o buy puts on such futures or on securities, or
o write covered calls on securities or futures. Covered calls can also be
used to increase the Underlying Fund's income, but the Manager does not
expect to engage extensively in that practice.

The Underlying Fund can use hedging to establish a position in the
securities market as a temporary substitute for purchasing particular
securities. In that case, the Underlying Fund would normally seek to purchase
the securities and then terminate that hedging position. The Underlying Fund
might also use this type of hedge to attempt to protect against the possibility
that its portfolio securities would not be fully included in a rise in value of
the market. To do so the Underlying Fund could:
o buy futures, or
o buy calls on such futures or on securities.

The Underlying Fund is not obligated to use hedging instruments, even
though it is permitted to use them in the Manager's discretion, as described
below. The Underlying Fund's strategy of hedging with futures and options on
futures will be incidental to the Underlying Fund's activities in the underlying
cash market. The particular hedging instruments the Underlying Fund can use are
described below. The Underlying Fund can employ new hedging instruments and
strategies when they are developed, if those investment methods are consistent
with the Underlying Fund's investment objective and are permissible under
applicable regulations governing the Underlying Fund.

|_| Futures. The Underlying Fund can buy and sell futures contracts that
relate to (1) broadly-based stock indices ("stock index futures") (2) debt
securities (these are referred to as "interest rate futures"), (3) other
broadly-based securities indices (these are referred to as "financial futures"),
(4) foreign currencies (these are referred to as "forward contracts"), or (5)
commodities (these are referred to as "commodity futures").

A broadly-based stock index is used as the basis for trading stock index
futures. They may in some cases be based on stocks of issuers in a particular
industry or group of industries. A stock index assigns relative values to the
common stocks included in the index and its value fluctuates in response to the
changes in value of the underlying stocks. A stock index cannot be purchased or
sold directly. Financial futures are similar contracts based on the future value
of the basket of securities that comprise the index. These contracts obligate
the seller to deliver, and the purchaser to take, cash to settle the futures
transaction. There is no delivery made of the underlying securities to settle
the futures obligation. Either party may also settle the transaction by entering
into an offsetting contract.

An interest rate future obligates the seller to deliver (and the purchaser
to take) cash or a specified type of debt security to settle the futures
transaction. Either party could also enter into an offsetting contract to close
out the position.

The Underlying Fund can invest a portion of its assets in commodity
futures contracts. Commodity futures may be based upon commodities within five
main commodity groups: (1) energy, which includes crude oil, natural gas,
gasoline and heating oil; (2) livestock, which includes cattle and hogs; (3)
agriculture, which includes wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton, coffee, sugar and
cocoa; (4) industrial metals, which includes aluminum, copper, lead, nickel, tin
and zinc; and (5) precious metals, which includes gold, platinum and silver. The
Underlying Fund can purchase and sell commodity futures contracts, options on
futures contracts and options and futures on commodity indices with respect to
these five main commodity groups and the individual commodities within each
group, as well as other types of commodities.

No money is paid or received by the Underlying Fund on the purchase or
sale of a future. Upon entering into a futures transaction, the Underlying Fund
will be required to deposit an initial margin payment with the futures
commission merchant (the "futures broker"). Initial margin payments will be
deposited with the Underlying Fund's custodian bank in an account registered in
the futures broker's name. However, the futures broker can gain access to that
account only under specified conditions. As the future is marked to market (that
is, its value on the Underlying Fund's books is changed) to reflect changes in
its market value, subsequent margin payments, called variation margin, will be
paid to or by the futures broker daily.

At any time prior to expiration of the future, the Underlying Fund can
elect to close out its position by taking an opposite position, at which time a
final determination of variation margin is made and any additional cash must be
paid by or released to the Underlying Fund. Any loss or gain on the future is
then realized by the Underlying Fund for tax purposes. All futures transactions,
except forward contracts, are effected through a clearinghouse associated with
the exchange on which the contracts are traded.

|_| Put and Call Options. The Underlying Fund can buy and sell certain
kinds of put options ("puts") and call options ("calls"). The Underlying Fund
can buy and sell exchange-traded and over-the-counter put and call options,
including index options, securities options, currency options, commodities
options, and options on the other types of futures described above.

|_| Writing Covered Call Options. The Underlying Fund can write (that is,
sell) covered calls. If the Underlying Fund sells a call option, it must be
covered. That means the Underlying Fund must own the security subject to the
call while the call is outstanding, or, for certain types of calls, the call can
be covered by identifying liquid assets on the Underlying Fund's books to enable
the Underlying Fund to satisfy its obligations if the call is exercised. Up to
25% of the Underlying Fund's total assets can be subject to calls the Underlying
Fund writes.

When the Underlying Fund writes a call on a security, it receives cash (a
premium). The Underlying Fund agrees to sell the underlying security to a
purchaser of a corresponding call on the same security during the call period at
a fixed exercise price regardless of market price changes during the call
period. The call period is usually not more than nine months. The exercise price
may differ from the market price of the underlying security. The Underlying Fund
has the risk of loss that the price of the underlying security may decline
during the call period. That risk may be offset to some extent by the premium
the Underlying Fund receives. If the value of the investment does not rise above
the call price, it is likely that the call will lapse without being exercised.
In that case the Underlying Fund would keep the cash premium and the investment.

When the Underlying Fund writes a call on an index, it receives cash (a
premium). If the buyer of the call exercises it, the Underlying Fund will pay an
amount of cash equal to the difference between the closing price of the call and
the exercise price, multiplied by a specified multiple that determines the total
value of the call for each point of difference. If the value of the underlying
investment does not rise above the call price, it is likely that the call will
lapse without being exercised. In that case the Underlying Fund would keep the
cash premium.

The Underlying Fund's custodian bank, or a securities depository acting
for the custodian bank, will act as the Underlying Fund's escrow agent, through
the facilities of the Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC"), as to the
investments on which the Underlying Fund has written calls traded on exchanges
or as to other acceptable escrow securities. In that way, no margin will be
required for such transactions. OCC will release the securities on the
expiration of the option or when the Underlying Fund enters into a closing
transaction.

When the Underlying Fund writes an over-the-counter ("OTC") option, it
will enter into an arrangement with a primary U.S. government securities dealer
which will establish a formula price at which the Underlying Fund will have the
absolute right to repurchase that OTC option. The formula price will generally
be based on a multiple of the premium received for the option, plus the amount
by which the option is exercisable below the market price of the underlying
security (that is, the option is "in the money"). When the Underlying Fund
writes an OTC option, it will treat as illiquid (for purposes of its restriction
on holding illiquid securities) the mark-to-market value of any OTC option it
holds, unless the option is subject to a buy-back agreement by the executing
broker. To terminate its obligation on a call it has written, the Underlying
Fund can purchase a corresponding call in a "closing purchase transaction." The
Underlying Fund will then realize a profit or loss, depending upon whether the
net of the amount of the option transaction costs and the premium received on
the call the Underlying Fund wrote is more or less than the price of the call
the Underlying Fund purchases to close out the transaction. The Underlying Fund
may realize a profit if the call expires unexercised, because the Underlying
Fund will retain the underlying security and the premium it received when it
wrote the call. Any such profits are considered short-term capital gains for
federal income tax purposes, as are the premiums on lapsed calls. When
distributed by the Underlying Fund they are taxable as ordinary income. If the
Underlying Fund cannot effect a closing purchase transaction due to the lack of
a market, it will have to hold the callable securities until the call expires or
is exercised.

The Underlying Fund can also write calls on a futures contract without
owning the futures contract or securities deliverable under the contract. To do
so, at the time the call is written, the Underlying Fund must cover the call by
identifying an equivalent dollar amount of liquid assets on the Underlying
Fund's books. The Underlying Fund will identify additional liquid assets on its
books if the value of the segregated assets drops below 100% of the current
value of the future. Because of this segregation requirement, in no
circumstances would the Underlying Fund's receipt of an exercise notice as to
that future require the Underlying Fund to deliver a futures contract. It would
simply put the Underlying Fund in a short futures position, which is permitted
by the Underlying Fund's hedging policies.

o Writing Put Options. The Underlying Fund can sell put options. A put
option on securities gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer the
obligation to buy, the underlying investment at the exercise price during the
option period. The Underlying Fund will not write puts if, as a result, more
than 25% of the Underlying Fund's total assets would be required to be
segregated to cover such put options.

If the Underlying Fund writes a put, the put must be covered by liquid
assets identified on the Underlying Fund's books. The premium the Underlying
Fund receives from writing a put represents a profit, as long as the price of
the underlying investment remains equal to or above the exercise price of the
put. However, the Underlying Fund also assumes the obligation during the option
period to buy the underlying investment from the buyer of the put at the
exercise price, even if the value of the investment falls below the exercise
price. If a put the Underlying Fund has written expires unexercised, the
Underlying Fund realizes a gain in the amount of the premium less the
transaction costs incurred. If the put is exercised, the Underlying Fund must
fulfill its obligation to purchase the underlying investment at the exercise
price. That price will usually exceed the market value of the investment at that
time. In that case, the Underlying Fund may incur a loss if it sells the
underlying investment. That loss will be equal to the sum of the sale price of
the underlying investment and the premium received minus the sum of the exercise
price and any transaction costs the Underlying Fund incurred.

When writing a put option on a security, to secure its obligation to pay
for the underlying security the Underlying Fund will deposit in escrow liquid
assets with a value equal to or greater than the exercise price of the
underlying securities. The Underlying Fund therefore forgoes the opportunity of
investing the segregated assets or writing calls against those assets.

As long as the Underlying Fund's obligation as the put writer continues,
it may be assigned an exercise notice by the broker-dealer through which the put
was sold. That notice will require the Underlying Fund to take delivery of the
underlying security and pay the exercise price. The Underlying Fund has no
control over when it may be required to purchase the underlying security, since
it may be assigned an exercise notice at any time prior to the termination of
its obligation as the writer of the put. That obligation terminates upon
expiration of the put. It may also terminate if, before it receives an exercise
notice, the Underlying Fund effects a closing purchase transaction by purchasing
a put of the same series as it sold. Once the Underlying Fund has been assigned
an exercise notice, it cannot effect a closing purchase transaction.

The Underlying Fund can decide to effect a closing purchase transaction to
realize a profit on an outstanding put option it has written or to prevent the
underlying security from being put. Effecting a closing purchase transaction
will also permit the Underlying Fund to write another put option on the
security, or to sell the security and use the proceeds from the sale for other
investments. The Underlying Fund will realize a profit or loss from a closing
purchase transaction depending on whether the cost of the transaction is less or
more than the premium received from writing the put option. Any profits from
writing puts are considered short-term capital gains for federal tax purposes,
and when distributed by the Underlying Fund, are taxable as ordinary income.

o Purchasing Calls and Puts. The Underlying Fund can purchase calls to
protect against the possibility that the Underlying Fund's portfolio will not
participate in an anticipated rise in the securities market. When the Underlying
Fund buys a call (other than in a closing purchase transaction), it pays a
premium. The Underlying Fund then has the right to buy the underlying investment
from a seller of a corresponding call on the same investment during the call
period at a fixed exercise price. The Underlying Fund benefits only if it sells
the call at a profit or if, during the call period, the market price of the
underlying investment is above the sum of the call price plus the transaction
costs and the premium paid for the call and the Underlying Fund exercises the
call. If the Underlying Fund does not exercise the call or sell it (whether or
not at a profit), the call will become worthless at its expiration date. In that
case the Underlying Fund will have paid the premium but lost the right to
purchase the underlying investment.

The Underlying Fund can buy puts whether or not it holds the underlying
investment in its portfolio. When the Underlying Fund purchases a put, it pays a
premium and, except as to puts on indices, has the right to sell the underlying
investment to a seller of a put on a corresponding investment during the put
period at a fixed exercise price. Buying a put on securities or futures the
Underlying Fund owns enables the Underlying Fund to attempt to protect itself
during the put period against a decline in the value of the underlying
investment below the exercise price by selling the underlying investment at the
exercise price to a seller of a corresponding put. If the market price of the
underlying investment is equal to or above the exercise price and, as a result,
the put is not exercised or resold, the put will become worthless at its
expiration date. In that case the Underlying Fund will have paid the premium but
lost the right to sell the underlying investment. However, the Underlying Fund
can sell the put prior to its expiration. That sale may or may not be at a
profit.

Buying a put on an investment the Underlying Fund does not own (such as an
index or future) permits the Underlying Fund to resell the put or to buy the
underlying investment and sell it at the exercise price. The resale price will
vary inversely to the price of the underlying investment. If the market price of
the underlying investment is above the exercise price and, as a result, the put
is not exercised, the put will become worthless on its expiration date.

When the Underlying Fund purchases a call or put on an index or future, it
pays a premium, but settlement is in cash rather than by delivery of the
underlying investment to the Underlying Fund. Gain or loss depends on changes in
the index in question (and thus on price movements in the securities market
generally) rather than on price movements in individual securities or futures
contracts.

The Underlying Fund can buy a call or put only if, after the purchase, the
value of all call and put options held by the Underlying Fund will not exceed 5%
of the Underlying Fund's total assets.

|_| Buying and Selling Options on Foreign Currencies. The Underlying Fund
can buy and sell calls and puts on foreign currencies. They include puts and
calls that trade on a securities or commodities exchange or in the
over-the-counter markets or are quoted by major recognized dealers in such
options. The Underlying Fund could use these calls and puts to try to protect
against declines in the dollar value of foreign securities and increases in the
dollar cost of foreign securities the Underlying Fund wants to acquire.

If the Manager anticipates a rise in the dollar value of a foreign
currency in which securities to be acquired are denominated, the increased cost
of those securities may be partially offset by purchasing calls or writing puts
on that foreign currency. If the Manager anticipates a decline in the dollar
value of a foreign currency, the decline in the dollar value of portfolio
securities denominated in that currency might be partially offset by writing
calls or purchasing puts on that foreign currency. However, the currency rates
could fluctuate in a direction adverse to the Underlying Fund's position. The
Underlying Fund will then have incurred option premium payments and transaction
costs without a corresponding benefit.

A call the Underlying Fund writes on a foreign currency is "covered" if
the Underlying Fund owns the underlying foreign currency covered by the call or
has an absolute and immediate right to acquire that foreign currency without
additional cash consideration (or it can do so for additional cash consideration
held in a segregated account by its custodian bank) upon conversion or exchange
of other foreign currency held in its portfolio.

The Underlying Fund could write a call on a foreign currency to provide a
hedge against a decline in the U.S. dollar value of a security which the
Underlying Fund owns or has the right to acquire and which is denominated in the
currency underlying the option. That decline might be one that occurs due to an
expected adverse change in the exchange rate. This is known as a "cross-hedging"
strategy. In those circumstances, the Underlying Fund covers the option by
maintaining cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid, high-grade debt
securities in an amount equal to the exercise price of the option, in a
segregated account with the Underlying Fund's custodian bank.

|_| Risks of Hedging with Options and Futures. The use of hedging
instruments requires special skills and knowledge of investment techniques that
are different than what is required for normal portfolio management. If the
Manager uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges market conditions
incorrectly, hedging strategies may reduce the Underlying Fund's return. The
Underlying Fund could also experience losses if the prices of its futures and
options positions were not correlated with its other investments.

The Underlying Fund's option activities could affect its portfolio
turnover rate and brokerage commissions. The exercise of calls written by the
Underlying Fund might cause the Underlying Fund to sell related portfolio
securities, thus increasing its turnover rate. The exercise by the Underlying
Fund of puts on securities will cause the sale of underlying investments,
increasing portfolio turnover. Although the decision whether to exercise a put
it holds is within the Underlying Fund's control, holding a put might cause the
Underlying Fund to sell the related investments for reasons that would not exist
in the absence of the put.

The Underlying Fund could pay a brokerage commission each time it buys a
call or put, sells a call or put, or buys or sells an underlying investment in
connection with the exercise of a call or put. Those commissions could be higher
on a relative basis than the commissions for direct purchases or sales of the
underlying investments. Premiums paid for options are small in relation to the
market value of the underlying investments. Consequently, put and call options
offer large amounts of leverage. The leverage offered by trading in options
could result in the Underlying Fund's net asset value being more sensitive to
changes in the value of the underlying investment.

If a covered call written by the Underlying Fund is exercised on an
investment that has increased in value, the Underlying Fund will be required to
sell the investment at the call price. It will not be able to realize any profit
if the investment has increased in value above the call price.

An option position may be closed out only on a market that provides
secondary trading for options of the same series, and there is no assurance that
a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular option. The Underlying
Fund might experience losses if it could not close out a position because of an
illiquid market for the future or option.

There is a risk in using short hedging by selling futures or purchasing
puts on broadly-based indices or futures to attempt to protect against declines
in the value of the Underlying Fund's portfolio securities. The risk is that the
prices of the futures or the applicable index will correlate imperfectly with
the behavior of the cash prices of the Underlying Fund's securities. For
example, it is possible that while the Underlying Fund has used hedging
instruments in a short hedge, the market might advance and the value of the
securities held in the Underlying Fund's portfolio might decline. If that
occurred, the Underlying Fund would lose money on the hedging instruments and
also experience a decline in the value of its portfolio securities. However,
while this could occur for a very brief period or to a very small degree, over
time the value of a diversified portfolio of securities will tend to move in the
same direction as the indices upon which the hedging instruments are based.

The risk of imperfect correlation increases as the composition of the
Underlying Fund's portfolio diverges from the securities included in the
applicable index. To compensate for the imperfect correlation of movements in
the price of the portfolio securities being hedged and movements in the price of
the hedging instruments, the Underlying Fund might use hedging instruments in a
greater dollar amount than the dollar amount of portfolio securities being
hedged. It might do so if the historical volatility of the prices of the
portfolio securities being hedged is more than the historical volatility of the
applicable index.

The ordinary spreads between prices in the cash and futures markets are
subject to distortions, due to differences in the nature of those markets.
First, all participants in the futures market are subject to margin deposit and
maintenance requirements. Rather than meeting additional margin deposit
requirements, investors may close futures contracts through offsetting
transactions which could distort the normal relationship between the cash and
futures markets. Second, the liquidity of the futures market depends on
participants entering into offsetting transactions rather than making or taking
delivery. To the extent participants decide to make or take delivery, liquidity
in the futures market could be reduced, thus producing distortion. Third, from
the point of view of speculators, the deposit requirements in the futures market
are less onerous than margin requirements in the securities markets. Therefore,
increased participation by speculators in the futures market may cause temporary
price distortions.

The Underlying Fund can use hedging instruments to establish a position in
the securities markets as a temporary substitute for the purchase of individual
securities (long hedging) by buying futures and/or calls on such futures,
broadly-based indices or on securities. It is possible that when the Underlying
Fund does so the market might decline. If the Underlying Fund then concludes not
to invest in securities because of concerns that the market might decline
further or for other reasons, the Underlying Fund will realize a loss on the
hedging instruments that is not offset by a reduction in the price of the
securities purchased.

|_| Forward Contracts. Forward contracts are foreign currency exchange
contracts. They are used to buy or sell foreign currency for future delivery at
a fixed price. The Underlying Fund uses them to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price
of a security denominated in a foreign currency that the Underlying Fund has
bought or sold, or to protect against possible losses from changes in the
relative values of the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency. The Underlying Fund
limits its exposure in foreign currency exchange contracts in a particular
foreign currency to the amount of its assets denominated in that currency or a
closely-correlated currency. The Underlying Fund can also use "cross-hedging"
where the Underlying Fund hedges against changes in currencies other than the
currency in which a security it holds is denominated.

Under a forward contract, one party agrees to purchase, and another party
agrees to sell, a specific currency at a future date. That date may be any fixed
number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties. The
transaction price is set at the time the contract is entered into. These
contracts are traded in the inter-bank market conducted directly among currency
traders (usually large commercial banks) and their customers.

The Underlying Fund can use forward contracts to protect against
uncertainty in the level of future exchange rates. The use of forward contracts
does not eliminate the risk of fluctuations in the prices of the underlying
securities the Underlying Fund owns or intends to acquire, but it does fix a
rate of exchange in advance. Although forward contracts may reduce the risk of
loss from a decline in the value of the hedged currency, at the same time they
limit any potential gain if the value of the hedged currency increases.

When the Underlying Fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale
of a security denominated in a foreign currency, or when it anticipates
receiving dividend payments in a foreign currency, the Underlying Fund might
desire to "lock-in" the U.S. dollar price of the security or the U.S. dollar
equivalent of the dividend payments. To do so, the Underlying Fund might enter
into a forward contract for the purchase or sale of the amount of foreign
currency involved in the underlying transaction, in a fixed amount of U.S.
dollars per unit of the foreign currency. This is called a "transaction hedge."
The transaction hedge will protect the Underlying Fund against a loss from an
adverse change in the currency exchange rates during the period between the date
on which the security is purchased or sold or on which the payment is declared,
and the date on which the payments are made or received.

The Underlying Fund could also use forward contracts to lock in the U.S.
dollar value of portfolio positions. This is called a "position hedge." When the
Underlying Fund believes that foreign currency might suffer a substantial
decline against the U.S. dollar, it could enter into a forward contract to sell
an amount of that foreign currency approximating the value of some or all of the
Underlying Fund's portfolio securities denominated in that foreign currency.
When the Underlying Fund believes that the U.S. dollar may suffer a substantial
decline against a foreign currency, it could enter into a forward contract to
buy that foreign currency for a fixed dollar amount. Alternatively, the
Underlying Fund could enter into a forward contract to sell a different foreign
currency for a fixed U.S. dollar amount if the Underlying Fund believes that the
U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency to be sold pursuant to its forward
contract will fall whenever there is a decline in the U.S. dollar value of the
currency in which portfolio securities of the Underlying Fund are denominated.
That is referred to as a "cross hedge."

The Underlying Fund will cover its short positions in these cases by
identifying to its custodian bank assets having a value equal to the aggregate
amount of the Underlying Fund's commitment under forward contracts. The
Underlying Fund will not enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure
to such contracts if the consummation of the contracts would obligate the
Underlying Fund to deliver an amount of foreign currency in excess of the value
of the Underlying Fund's portfolio securities or other assets denominated in
that currency or another currency that is the subject of the hedge. However, to
avoid excess transactions and transaction costs, the Underlying Fund can
maintain a net exposure to forward contracts in excess of the value of the
Underlying Fund's portfolio securities or other assets denominated in foreign
currencies if the excess amount is "covered" by liquid securities denominated in
any currency. The cover must be at least equal at all times to the amount of
that excess. As one alternative, the Underlying Fund can purchase a call option
permitting the Underlying Fund to purchase the amount of foreign currency being
hedged by a forward sale contract at a price no higher than the forward contract
price. As another alternative, the Underlying Fund can purchase a put option
permitting the Underlying Fund to sell the amount of foreign currency subject to
a forward purchase contract at a price as high or higher than the forward
contact price.

The precise matching of the amounts under forward contracts and the value
of the securities involved generally will not be possible because the future
value of securities denominated in foreign currencies will change as a
consequence of market movements between the date the forward contract is entered
into and the date it is sold. In some cases the Manager might decide to sell the
security and deliver foreign currency to settle the original purchase
obligation. If the market value of the security is less than the amount of
foreign currency the Underlying Fund is obligated to deliver, the Underlying
Fund might have to purchase additional foreign currency on the "spot" (that is,
cash) market to settle the security trade. If the market value of the security
instead exceeds the amount of foreign currency the Underlying Fund is obligated
to deliver to settle the trade, the Underlying Fund might have to sell on the
spot market some of the foreign currency received upon the sale of the security.
There will be additional transaction costs on the spot market in those cases.

The projection of short-term currency market movements is extremely
difficult, and the successful execution of a short-term hedging strategy is
highly uncertain. Forward contracts involve the risk that anticipated currency
movements will not be accurately predicted, causing the Underlying Fund to
sustain losses on these contracts and to pay additional transactions costs. The
use of forward contracts in this manner might reduce the Underlying Fund's
performance if there are unanticipated changes in currency prices to a greater
degree than if the Underlying Fund had not entered into such contracts.

At or before the maturity of a forward contract requiring the Underlying
Fund to sell a currency, the Underlying Fund might sell a portfolio security and
use the sale proceeds to make delivery of the currency. In the alternative the
Underlying Fund might retain the security and offset its contractual obligation
to deliver the currency by purchasing a second contract. Under that contract the
Underlying Fund will obtain, on the same maturity date, the same amount of the
currency that it is obligated to deliver. Similarly, the Underlying Fund might
close out a forward contract requiring it to purchase a specified currency by
entering into a second contract entitling it to sell the same amount of the same
currency on the maturity date of the first contract. The Underlying Fund would
realize a gain or loss as a result of entering into such an offsetting forward
contract under either circumstance. The gain or loss will depend on the extent
to which the exchange rate or rates between the currencies involved moved
between the execution dates of the first contract and offsetting contract.

The costs to the Underlying Fund of engaging in forward contracts varies
with factors such as the currencies involved, the length of the contract period
and the market conditions then prevailing. Because forward contracts are usually
entered into on a principal basis, no brokerage fees or commissions are
involved. Because these contracts are not traded on an exchange, the Underlying
Fund must evaluate the credit and performance risk of the counterparty under
each forward contract.

Although the Underlying Fund values its assets daily in terms of U.S.
dollars, it does not intend to convert its holdings of foreign currencies into
U.S. dollars on a daily basis. The Underlying Fund can convert foreign currency
from time to time, and will incur costs in doing so. Foreign exchange dealers do
not charge a fee for conversion, but they do seek to realize a profit based on
the difference between the prices at which they buy and sell various currencies.
Thus, a dealer might offer to sell a foreign currency to the Underlying Fund at
one rate, while offering a lesser rate of exchange if the Underlying Fund
desires to resell that currency to the dealer.

|_| Interest Rate Swap Transactions. The Underlying Fund can enter into
interest rate swap agreements. In an interest rate swap, the Underlying Fund and
another party exchange their right to receive or their obligation to pay
interest on a security. For example, they might swap the right to receive
floating rate payments for fixed rate payments. The Underlying Fund can enter
into swaps only on securities that it owns. The Underlying Fund will not enter
into swaps with respect to more than 25% of its total assets. Also, the
Underlying Fund will identify liquid assets on its books (such as cash or U.S.
government securities) to cover any amounts it could owe under swaps that exceed
the amounts it is entitled to receive, and it will adjust that amount daily, as
needed.

Swap agreements entail both interest rate risk and credit risk. There is a
risk that, based on movements of interest rates in the future, the payments made
by the Underlying Fund under a swap agreement will be greater than the payments
it received. Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will
default. If the counterparty defaults, the Underlying Fund's loss will consist
of the net amount of contractual interest payments that the Underlying Fund has
not yet received. The Manager will monitor the creditworthiness of
counterparties to the Underlying Fund's interest rate swap transactions on an
ongoing basis.

The Underlying Fund can enter into swap transactions with certain
counterparties pursuant to master netting agreements. A master netting agreement
provides that all swaps done between the Underlying Fund and that counterparty
shall be regarded as parts of an integral agreement. If amounts are payable on a
particular date in the same currency in respect of one or more swap
transactions, the amount payable on that date in that currency shall be the net
amount. In addition, the master netting agreement may provide that if one party
defaults generally or on one swap, the counterparty can terminate all of the
swaps with that party. Under these agreements, if a default results in a loss to
one party, the measure of that party's damages is calculated by reference to the
average cost of a replacement swap for each swap. It is measured by the
mark-to-market value at the time of the termination of each swap. The gains and
losses on all swaps are then netted, and the result is the counterparty's gain
or loss on termination. The termination of all swaps and the netting of gains
and losses on termination is generally referred to as "aggregation."

|_| Regulatory Aspects of Hedging Instruments. When using futures and
options on futures, the Underlying Fund is required to operate within certain
guidelines and restrictions with respect to the use of futures as established by
the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"). In particular, the
Underlying Fund is exempted from registration with the CFTC as a "commodity pool
operator" if the Underlying Fund complies with the requirements of Rule 4.5
adopted by the CFTC. The Rule does not limit the percentage of the Underlying
Fund's assets that may be used for futures margin and related options premiums
for a bona fide hedging position. However, under the Rule, the Underlying Fund
must limit its aggregate initial futures margin and related options premiums to
not more than 5% of the Underlying Fund's net assets for hedging strategies that
are not considered bona fide hedging strategies under the Rule. Under the Rule,
the Underlying Fund must also use short futures and options on futures solely
for bona fide hedging purposes within the meaning and intent of the applicable
provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Transactions in options by the Underlying Fund are subject to limitations
established by the option exchanges. The exchanges limit the maximum number of
options that may be written or held by a single investor or group of investors
acting in concert. Those limits apply regardless of whether the options were
written or purchased on the same or different exchanges or are held in one or
more accounts or through one or more different exchanges or through one or more
brokers. Thus, the number of options that the Underlying Fund can write or hold
may be affected by options written or held by other entities, including other
investment companies having the same advisor as the Underlying Fund (or an
advisor that is an affiliate of the Underlying Fund's advisor). The exchanges
also impose position limits on futures transactions. An exchange may order the
liquidation of positions found to be in violation of those limits and may impose
certain other sanctions.

Under the Investment Company Act, when the Underlying Fund purchases a
future, it must maintain cash or readily marketable short-term debt instruments
in an amount equal to the market value of the securities underlying the future,
less the margin deposit applicable to it.

|_| Tax Aspects of Certain Hedging Instruments. Certain foreign currency
exchange contracts in which the Underlying Fund can invest are treated as
"Section 1256 contracts" under the Internal Revenue Code. In general, gains or
losses relating to Section 1256 contracts are characterized as 60% long-term and
40% short-term capital gains or losses under the Code. However, foreign currency
gains or losses arising from Section 1256 contracts that are forward contracts
generally are treated as ordinary income or loss. In addition, Section 1256
contracts held by the Underlying Fund at the end of each taxable year are
"marked-to-market," and unrealized gains or losses are treated as though they
were realized. These contracts also may be marked-to-market for purposes of
determining the excise tax applicable to investment company distributions and
for other purposes under rules prescribed pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code.
An election can be made by the Underlying Fund to exempt those transactions from
this marked-to-market treatment.

Certain forward contracts the Underlying Fund enters into may result in
"straddles" for federal income tax purposes. The straddle rules may affect the
character and timing of gains (or losses) recognized by the Underlying Fund on
straddle positions. Generally, a loss sustained on the disposition of a position
making up a straddle is allowed only to the extent that the loss exceeds any
unrecognized gain in the offsetting positions making up the straddle. Disallowed
loss is generally allowed at the point where there is no unrecognized gain in
the offsetting positions making up the straddle, or the offsetting position is
disposed of.

Under the Internal Revenue Code, the following gains or losses are treated
as ordinary income or loss:

(1) gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates that
occur between the time the Underlying Fund accrues interest or other
receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a
foreign currency and the time the Underlying Fund actually collects
such receivables or pays such liabilities, and
(2) gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of a foreign
currency between the date of acquisition of a debt security denominated
in a foreign currency or foreign currency forward contracts and the
date of disposition.

Currency gains and losses are offset against market gains and losses on
each trade before determining a net "Section 988" gain or loss under the
Internal Revenue Code for that trade, which may increase or decrease the amount
of the Underlying Fund's investment income available for distribution to its
shareholders.

|X| Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments. The Underlying Fund's
temporary defensive investments can include (i) obligations issued or guaranteed
by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities; (ii) commercial paper
rated in the highest category by an established rating organization; (iii)
certificates of deposit or bankers' acceptances of domestic banks with assets of
$1 billion or more; (iv) any of the foregoing securities that mature in one year
or less (generally known as "cash equivalents"); (v) other short-term corporate
debt obligations; and (vi) repurchase agreements.

Investment Restrictions

|X| What Are "Fundamental Policies?" Fundamental policies are those
policies that the Underlying Fund has adopted to govern its investments that can
be changed only by the vote of a "majority" of the Underlying Fund's outstanding
voting securities. Under the Investment Company Act, a "majority" vote is
defined as the vote of the holders of the lesser of:
o 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at a
shareholder meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding
shares are present or represented by proxy, or
o more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

The Underlying Fund's investment objective is a fundamental policy. Other
policies described in the Underlying Fund's Prospectus or its Statement of
Additional Information and in this Appendix C are "fundamental" only if they are
identified as such. The Underlying Fund's Board of Directors can change
non-fundamental policies without shareholder approval. However, significant
changes to investment policies will be described in supplements or updates to
the Underlying Fund's Prospectus or Statement of Additional Information, as
appropriate. The Underlying Fund's most significant investment policies are
described in its Prospectus as well as in the Oppenheimer Principal Protected
Main Street Fund Prospectus.

|X| Does the Underlying Fund Have Additional Fundamental Policies? The
following investment restrictions are Fundamental policies of the Underlying
Fund.

o The Underlying Fund cannot concentrate investments. That means it cannot
invest 25% or more of its total assets in any industry. However, there is no
limitation on investments in U.S. government securities.

o The Underlying Fund cannot invest in commodities. However, the
Underlying Fund can buy and sell any of the hedging instruments permitted by any
of its other policies. It does not matter if the hedging instrument is
considered to be a commodity or commodity contract.

o The Underlying Fund cannot invest in real estate or in interests in real
estate. However, the Underlying Fund can purchase securities of issuers holding
real estate or interests in real estate (including securities of real estate
investment trusts).

o The Underlying Fund cannot underwrite securities of other companies. A
permitted exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the
Securities Act of 1933 when reselling any securities held in its own portfolio.

o The Underlying Fund cannot issue "senior securities," but this does not
prohibit certain investment activities for which assets of the Fund are
designated as segregated, or margin, collateral or escrow arrangements are
established, to cover the related obligations. Examples of those activities
include borrowing money, reverse repurchase agreements, delayed-delivery and
when-issued arrangements for portfolio securities transactions, and contracts to
buy or sell derivatives, hedging instruments, options or futures.

o The Underlying Fund cannot borrow money in excess of 33 1/3% of the
value of its total assets (including the amount borrowed). The Underlying Fund
may borrow only from banks and/or affiliated investment companies. With respect
to this fundamental policy, the Underlying Fund can borrow only if it maintains
a 300% ratio of assets to borrowings at all times in the manner set forth in the
Investment Company Act of 1940.

o The Underlying Fund cannot make loans except (a) through lending of
securities, (b) through the purchase of debt instruments or similar evidences of
indebtedness, (c) through an interfund lending program with other affiliated
funds, and (d) through repurchase agreements

o The Underlying Fund cannot buy securities issued or guaranteed by any
one issuer if more than 5% of its total assets would be invested in securities
of that issuer or it would then own more than 10% of that issuer's voting
securities. This limit applies to 75% of the Underlying Fund's total assets. The
limit does not apply to securities issued by the U.S. Government or any of its
agencies or instrumentalities, or securities of other investment companies.

Unless the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information states
that a percentage restriction applies on an ongoing basis, it applies only at
the time the Underlying Fund makes an investment (except in the case of
borrowing and investments in illiquid securities). The Underlying Fund need not
sell securities to meet the percentage limits if the value of the investment
increases in proportion to the size of the Underlying Fund.

For purposes of the Underlying Fund's policy not to concentrate its
investments as described above, the Underlying Fund has adopted the industry
classifications set forth in Appendix B to this Statement of Additional
Information. This is not a fundamental policy.

1 Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.
2 In the case of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund, a continuously-offered
closed-end fund, references to contingent deferred sales charges mean the Fund's
Early Withdrawal Charges and references to "redemptions" mean "repurchases" of
shares.
3 An "employee benefit plan" means any plan or arrangement, whether or not it
is "qualified" under the Internal Revenue Code, under which Class N shares of
an Oppenheimer fund or funds are purchased by a fiduciary or other administrator
for the account of participants who are employees of a single employer or of
affiliated employers. These may include, for example, medical savings accounts,
payroll deduction plans or similar plans. The fund accounts must be registered
in the name of the fiduciary or administrator purchasing the shares for the
benefit of participants in the plan.
4 The term "Group Retirement Plan" means any qualified or non-qualified
retirement plan for employees of a corporation or sole proprietorship, members
and employees of a partnership or association or other organized group of
persons (the members of which may include other groups), if the group has made
special arrangements with the Distributor and all members of the group
participating in (or who are eligible to participate in) the plan purchase
shares of an Oppenheimer fund or funds through a single investment dealer,
broker or other financial institution designated by the group. Such plans
include 457 plans, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs, SIMPLE plans and 403(b) plans other than
plans for public school employees. The term "Group Retirement Plan" also
includes qualified retirement plans and non-qualified deferred compensation
plans and IRAs that purchase shares of an Oppenheimer fund or funds through a
single investment dealer, broker or other financial institution that has made
special arrangements with the Distributor.
5 However, that concession will not be paid on purchases of shares in amounts of
$1 million or more (including any right of accumulation) by a Retirement Plan
that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class C shares of one
or more Oppenheimer funds held by the Plan for more than one year.
6 This provision does not apply to IRAs.
7 This provision does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the participant
is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
8 The distribution must be requested prior to Plan termination or the
elimination of the Oppenheimer funds as an investment option under the Plan.
9 This provision does not apply to IRAs.
10 This provision does not apply to loans from 403(b)(7) custodial plans and
loans from the OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.
11 This provision does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the participant
is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
