Overview

The Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II is a "fund-of-funds"
that will invest a portion of its assets in shares of Oppenheimer Main Street
Fund(R)1 and a portion of its assets in U.S. Government securities. It may also
invest in high-grade corporate debt securities.

      The Fund has an Offering Period, a Warranty Period and a Post-Warranty
Period. Shares of the Fund will be offered during an Offering Period but will
not be offered during the Warranty Period, except in connection with
reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The Offering Period will run
from ________, 2003 through _________, 2003, unless extended. The Fund may
decide, in its discretion, not to commence operations if it does not receive
$75 million in investments during the Offering Period. During the Offering
Period and the two days subsequent thereto, the Fund will invest in money
market instruments and short-term debt securities to attempt to preserve
shareholders' principal investment.

      The Warranty Period will run from the third business day following the
end of the Offering Period (expected to be _________, 2003) through and
including a date 7 years later (expected to be ____________) (the "Maturity
Date"). During the Warranty Period, the Fund will seek primarily capital
preservation, and secondarily high total return, by allocating its assets
between Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Main Street Fund, U.S. government
securities, including zero coupon bonds and certain securities guaranteed by
certain U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities, and to the extent
permitted by the Warranty Provider (as defined below), and high grade
corporate debt securities.  Shareholders may receive taxable gains from
portfolio transactions by the Fund, whether they take payment in cash or
reinvest them to purchase additional Fund shares.

      The Fund has entered into a Financial Warranty Agreement (the "Warranty
Agreement") with Main Place Funding, LLC (the "Warranty Provider") pursuant
to which the Warranty Provider will issue a financial warranty (the
"Financial Warranty") to the Fund.  Bank of America Corporation, the indirect
parent company of the Warranty Provider, has unconditionally guaranteed the
obligations of the Warranty Provider under the Warranty Agreement. The
purpose of the Financial Warranty is 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 second business day after the end of the
Offering Period, including net income, if any, earned by the Fund during the
Offering Period, reduced by (i) sales charges, (ii) that shareholder's pro
rata portion of any Extraordinary Expenses not covered by the Warranty
Agreement, (iii) proportionately reduced for dividends and distributions paid
in cash and redemptions of Fund shares, (iv) that shareholder's pro rata
portion of the value of any shares issued by the Fund during the Warranty
Period other than in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions, (v) the amount of any increase in that shareholder's
investment in the Fund as a result of changes in accounting practices for the
Fund, corporate actions or certain other events, and (vi) if
OppenheimerFunds, Inc., as manager of the Fund (the "Manager") is required to
make payments under the Warranty Agreement in certain instances, and the
Manager fails to do so in a timely manner, the amount of such payments (on a
pro rata basis).  The value of the shareholder's account on the second
business day after the end of the Offering period minus the above-described
reductions is referred to as the "Warranty Amount."  In order to avoid having
their Warranty Amount reduced, 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 sufficient to make sure that each shareholder's account can be
redeemed for an amount equal to his or her Warranty Amount.


      Because the front-end sales charge you pay on the purchase of Class A
shares reduces the Warranty Amount for Class A shareholders, Class A shares
will have a lower Warranty Amount than the Class B, Class C or Class N
shares. Normal operating fees and expenses of the Fund incurred in the
ordinary course of business will not reduce the Warranty Amount. However,
extraordinary expenses incurred by the Fund will reduce the Warranty Amount.
In addition, in the event the Fund is completely and irreversibly invested in
debt securities and cash and cash equivalents, any Fund expenses in excess of
certain limits as described on page 11 will reduce the Warranty Amount.

      The Warranty Provider is a Delaware limited liability company and is an
indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation.  The
Warranty Provider was established originally to manage closed-end residential
mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities. The Warranty Provider
currently engages in the business of entering into financial contracts with
third parties, including financial warranty agreements.  Bank of America
Corporation is organized as a Delaware corporation and operates as a bank
holding company and a financial holding company.  Bank of America Corporation
has unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of the Warranty Provider under
the Warranty Agreement.  The Warranty Provider and Bank of America
Corporation have not participated in the organization of the Fund and make no
representation regarding the advisability of an investment in the Fund and
are not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of this Prospectus.
Further information about the Warranty Provider and Bank of America
Corporation can be found in the Statement of Additional Information and in
the reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Warranty
Provider and Bank of America Corporation.

      Shareholders could lose money by investing in this Fund. A
shareholder's Warranty Amount will be reduced, as more fully described in
this prospectus, if the shareholder takes any dividends or distributions in
cash instead of reinvesting them in additional shares of the Fund, redeems
any shares before the Maturity Date, if there are Extraordinary Expenses
incurred by the Fund (as such expenses are not covered by the Warranty
Agreement), if the Fund or the Manager fails to perform certain obligations
under the Warranty Agreement (in which case the Warranty Provider may have
the right to terminate the Financial Warranty).  Moreover, shareholders could
lose money if the Warranty Provider fails to meet its obligations under the
Warranty Agreement and, additionally, Bank of America Corporation fails to
meet its obligation to guarantee the Warranty Provider's performance under
the Warranty Agreement.

      During the Post-Warranty Period, which will commence immediately
following the Warranty Period, the Fund will seek high total return by
investing in Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Main Street Fund, common stocks of
U.S. companies of different capitalization ranges, and/or debt securities,
such as bonds and debentures. The Fund's shares will be offered on a
continuous basis during the Post-Warranty Period.

The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Strategies

What Is the Fund's Investment Objective During the Warranty Period? During
the Warranty Period, the Fund will seek capital preservation in order to have
a net asset value on the Maturity Date at least equal to the Warranty Amount.
The Fund seeks high total return as a secondary objective.
What Does The Fund Mainly Invest In During the Warranty Period? The Fund is a
special type of mutual fund known as a "fund of funds" because it can invest
a substantial portion of its assets in other mutual funds. During the
Warranty Period, the Fund's investment manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the
"Manager") will allocate the Fund's assets between a portfolio of equity
securities as described below (the "equity portfolio") and a portfolio of
debt securities as described below (the "debt portfolio").  The equity
portfolio will invest in Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Main Street Fund
(referred to as the "Underlying Fund"). The Underlying Fund's investment
objective is to seek high total return by investing mainly in common stocks
of U.S. companies of different capitalization ranges.  The debt portfolio
will invest principally in zero coupon U.S. government securities, but may
also include certain securities guaranteed by certain U.S. Government
agencies and instrumentalities, and corporate bonds rated at least "A-" by
Standard & Poor's or "A3" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.  The securities
in the debt portfolio will have a maturity approximately equal to the period
remaining in the Warranty Period.

Who Is The Fund Designed For? The Fund may be an appropriate investment for
you if you:
o     Have an investment time horizon of at least 7 years
o     Seek potential for growth but are concerned about capital preservation
o     Want a professionally managed and diversified portfolio
o     Are not seeking current income through cash dividends

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund

All investments have risks to some degree. The Fund's investments are subject
to changes in their value from a number of factors described below. There is
also the risk that poor security selection by the Fund's and the Underlying
Fund's investment manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., will cause the Fund to
underperform other funds having a similar objective.

      The principal risks of investing in the Fund during the Offering Period
are those generally attributable to short-term debt securities and money
market instruments. The principal risks of an investment in the Fund during
the Warranty Period and the Post-Warranty Period are those generally
attributable to investing in stocks and debt securities. Because the Fund
invests in both stocks and debt securities during the Warranty Period, the
Fund may underperform stock funds when stocks are in favor and underperform
bond funds when debt securities are in favor.

      In order to enable the Fund to obtain the benefits of the Financial
Warranty, the Fund expects to comply with certain investment limitations
established by the Warranty Agreement. If the Fund or the Manager chooses not
to comply with those investment limitations because it determines that such
non-compliance would be in the shareholder's best interests, the Warranty
Provider may exercise its rights to have more of the Fund's assets invested
in the debt portfolio (including a complete and irreversible allocation to
the debt portfolio) or could terminate the Financial Warranty.

      As with any mutual fund, the value of the Fund's investments - and
therefore the value of Fund shares - may go down. Although the Fund will seek
to return a shareholder's Warranty Amount at the end of the Warranty Period,
the value of the Fund's shares will fluctuate during the Warranty Period and
may decline below your original account value. Changes in the value of the
Fund's shares may occur because a particular stock market in which the
Underlying Fund invests is rising or falling, or in response to interest rate
changes because of the effect of the change on the value of the Fund's debt
portfolio. You could lose money by investing in the Fund if you redeem your
shares prior to the Maturity Date or after the Maturity Date or if the value
of the Fund's investments goes down and the Warranty Provider is unable to
meet its obligations under the Financial Warranty. See "The Warranty
Agreement and the Financial Warranty" on page 20 for further information
about when the Warranty Agreement and the Financial Warranty may be
terminated.

      The Fund will distribute any net gains and income (including accrued
but unpaid income on zero coupon bonds) to shareholders at least annually.
Such distributions are taxable to shareholders even if the distributions are
reinvested in the Fund. Shareholders who reinvest distributions in the Fund
will be required to pay taxes on such distributions from other sources.
Shareholders who do not reinvest distributions, however, will be subject to a
reduction in their Warranty Amount.

RISKS OF INVESTING IN STOCKS. Stocks fluctuate in price, and their short-term
volatility at times may be great. Because the Underlying Fund currently
invests a substantial portion of its assets in common stocks, the value of
the Underlying Fund's portfolio and therefore the Fund's equity portfolio
will be affected by changes in the stock markets. Market risk will affect the
Fund's net asset values per share, which will fluctuate as the values of the
Underlying Fund's portfolio securities change. The corresponding effect on
the net asset value of the Fund will depend on the percentage of the Fund's
assets allocated to shares of the Underlying Fund.

      A variety of factors can affect the price of a particular stock and the
prices of individual stocks do not all move in the same direction uniformly
or at the same time. Different stock markets may behave differently from each
other. In particular, because the Underlying Fund currently focuses its stock
investments in U.S. issuers, it will be primarily affected by changes in U.S.
stock markets.

      Other factors can affect a particular stock's price, such as poor
earnings reports by the issuer, loss of major customers, major litigation
against the issuer, or changes in government regulations affecting the issuer
or its industry. The Underlying Fund may buy securities of small and
medium-size companies, which may have more volatile prices than stocks of
large 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 price may fluctuate more than
that of funds focusing on larger capitalization issuers.

      At times, the Underlying Fund's emphasis of its investments in a
particular industry may differ compared to the weighting of that industry in
the S&P 500 Index, which the Underlying Fund uses as a performance benchmark.
To the extent that the Underlying Fund increases its emphasis on stocks in a
particular industry, its share values may fluctuate in response to events
affecting that industry, such as changes in economic conditions, government
regulations, availability of basic resources or supplies, or other events
that affect that industry more than others.

INTEREST RATE RISK. Debt securities are subject to changes in value when
prevailing interest rates change. When interest rates fall, the values of
already-issued debt securities generally rise. When interest rates rise, the
values of already-issued debt securities generally fall, and those securities
may sell at a discount from their face amount. The magnitude of these price
fluctuations is generally greater for debt securities having longer
maturities and for zero coupon securities.

      The Fund buys zero-coupon or "stripped" securities, which are
particularly sensitive to interest rate changes. Their prices may go up or
down more than the prices of other types of debt securities in response to
interest rate changes.

CREDIT RISK. Securities directly issued by the U.S. Treasury and certain U.S.
government agencies that are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
government have little credit risk. Securities issued by other agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. government generally have low credit risks.
Securities issued by corporate issuers have greater credit risks. Credit risk
is the risk that the issuer of a debt security might not make interest and
principal payments on the security as they become due.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FINANCIAL WARRANTY.  Although neither the Warranty
Provider nor Bank of America Corporation, nor any other person (including the
Manager, its affiliates or the United States Government) has guaranteed the
performance of the Fund, the Fund has entered into the Warranty Agreement
with the Warranty Provider to try to make sure that on the Maturity Date
shareholders will be able to redeem their shares of the Fund at their
Warranty Amount.  The Financial Warranty is solely the obligation of the
Warranty Provider, and its obligation is guaranteed by Bank of America
Corporation. It is possible that the financial position of the Warranty
Provider and Bank of America Corporation may deteriorate.  As described
above, shareholders could lose money if the Warranty Provider fails to or is
unable to perform its obligations under the Warranty Agreement, and,
additionally, Bank of America Corporation fails to meet its obligation to
guarantee the Warranty Provider's performance under the Warranty Agreement.
Bank of America Corporation's guarantee of the performance of the Warranty
Provider is not an obligation of, or guaranteed by, Bank of America, N.A.or
any other bank, or any affiliate of any of the foregoing, and is not insured
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other, governmental
agency.

      The Warranty Agreement may be terminated by the Warranty Provider in
certain circumstances, as discussed in "The Warranty Agreement and the
Financial Warranty," below. In such event, shareholders will not receive the
Warranty Amount but instead will receive the Fund's then-current net asset
value when they redeem their shares, which may be lower than the Warranty
Amount. Shareholders may receive less than their Warranty Amount as
calculated on the first day of the Warranty Period in certain other
circumstances as well. For example, the Warranty Agreement requires the
Manager to make payments to the Warranty Provider upon the happening of
certain specified events. If the Manager fails to make a required payment,
the Warranty Provider may reduce its obligations under the Financial
Warranty. As a result, a shareholder's Warranty Amount may be reduced.

      In addition, the Manager has contractually agreed to reduce its
management fee for the remainder of the Warranty Period in the event that the
Fund becomes completely and irreversibly invested in the debt portfolio to
the extent necessary so that total annual operating expenses of the Fund are
limited to certain agreed amounts (as described under "Advisory Fees" on page
25) for each share class (excluding Extraordinary Expenses and certain other
expenses). 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. Under such circumstances, the aggregate Warranty Amount will be
reduced by the portion of the Fund's annual operating expenses that exceed
these limits.

      Furthermore, the Warranty Amount per share will be reduced by the
shareholder's proportionate share of any Extraordinary Expenses incurred by
the Fund, by any shortfall amount resulting from the negligence of the
Manager, by dividends and distributions paid in cash, and by redemption of
Fund shares during the Warranty Period. If any of those were to occur, the
shareholder will receive less than the original Warranty Amount on the
Maturity Date. The Manager will not be responsible to the Fund for a
reduction in the Warranty Amount due to an Extraordinary Expense or other
shortfall resulting from the Manager's negligent acts.

Investment Restrictions Under Warranty Agreement. To avoid losing the
benefits of the Financial Warranty, the Fund is subject to conditions of the
Warranty Agreement that require the Manager to make investment allocation
decisions based on a mathematical formula (the "Warranty Formula") that
limits the amount of the Fund's assets that may be allocated to the shares of
the Underlying Fund. This limitation is designed to reduce, but does not
eliminate, the risk that the Fund's assets will be insufficient to allow the
Fund to redeem shares at not less than the Warranty Amount on the Maturity
Date. Accordingly, the Warranty Agreement could limit the Manager's ability
to respond to changing market conditions during the Warranty Period. If the
Manager 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 the Financial Warranty,
exercise its right to instruct the Manager to immediately allocate the Fund's
assets to the debt portfolio, deliver to the Fund's custodian (the
"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 Warranty Formula which would
have the effect of increasing the portion of the Fund's assets allocated to
the debt portfolio. If the Warranty Provider were to exercise the right to
have all of the Fund's assets invested in the debt portfolio, the Fund's
ability to participate in upward equity market movements would be eliminated.

Risk of Default.   A shareholder's ability to receive the Warranty Amount
depends on the financial condition of the Warranty Provider and Bank of
America Corporation.  The Warranty Agreement is an obligation that runs
solely to the Fund, not to the Fund's shareholders, and shareholders would
have no recourse against the Warranty Provider or Bank of America Corporation
in the event they default on their respective obligations to the Fund.  Since
the Financial Warranty is solely an obligation of the Warranty Provider, and
this obligation is guaranteed by the Bank of America Corporation, an
investment in the Fund involves a risk of loss if the Warranty Provider or
the Bank of America Corporation is placed in receivership, or are otherwise
unable to perform their respective obligations or default on their respective
obligations, if any, to the Fund. In the event of an act of insolvency by the
Warranty Provider or a downgrade in the credit rating of Bank of America
Corporation, the Fund's board of trustees (the "Board") could take a variety
of actions including replacing the Financial Warranty. However, the Board is
under no obligation to replace the Financial Warranty or otherwise find a
substitute provider of principal protection. In each of the above
circumstances, shareholders could suffer a loss of principal. No entity or
person is obligated to make up any shortfall in the event the Warranty
Provider and the Bank of America Corporation default on their respective
obligations to the Fund and the Fund's assets are insufficient to redeem the
Fund's shares for the Warranty Amount on the Maturity Date. The Warranty
Provider may, with the written consent of the Fund and the Manager, assign
its obligations under the Warranty Agreement to an affiliate, provided Bank
of America Corporation guarantees such affiliate's obligations under the
Warranty Agreement.  There is a risk that the substitute Warranty Provider
may not have the financial resources to fulfill its obligations under the
Warranty Agreement.

Risks Associated with Asset Allocation. At times, the Fund's assets may be
largely invested in the debt portfolio in order to increase the likelihood of
preserving the original principal value of the Fund. If Fund assets are
largely invested in the debt portfolio, the Fund's exposure to equity markets
will be reduced and the Fund will be more highly correlated with bonds. In
addition, if during the Warranty Period the equity markets experience a major
decline, the Fund's assets may become largely or entirely invested in the
debt portfolio. In fact, if the value of the shares of the Underlying Fund
were to decline significantly (whether within a short period of time or over
a protracted period), a complete and irreversible reallocation to the debt
portfolio may occur. In this circumstance, the Fund would not participate in
any subsequent recovery in the equity markets. Investment in debt securities
during the Warranty Period reduces the Fund's ability to participate as fully
in upward equity market movements, and therefore represents some loss of
opportunity compared to a portfolio that invests principally in equity
securities. In addition, the terms of the Warranty Agreement prescribe
certain investment parameters within which the Fund must be managed during
the Warranty Period to preserve the benefit of the Financial Warranty.
Accordingly, the Warranty Agreement could limit the Manager's ability to
alter the allocation of Fund assets during the Warranty Period in response to
changing market conditions. The terms of the Warranty Agreement could require
the Fund to liquidate an equity position when it otherwise would not be in
the shareholders' best interests or at a time when the Manager otherwise
would not recommend that the securities be sold.

      The asset allocation process may result in additional transaction
costs. This process can have an adverse effect on the performance of the Fund
during periods of increased equity market volatility. In addition, a high
portfolio turnover rate may increase the Fund's transaction costs, which
would adversely affect performance. Also, you may receive taxable gains from
portfolio transactions by the Fund, whether you take payment in cash or
reinvest them to purchase additional Fund shares.

HOW RISKY IS THE FUND OVERALL? The risks described above collectively form
the overall risk profile of the Fund and can affect the value of the Fund's
investments, its investment performance and the prices of its shares.
Particular investments and investment strategies also have risks. These risks
mean that you can lose money by investing in the Fund, particularly if the
financial condition of the Warranty Provider deteriorates and it is unable to
make the required payment to the Fund, if necessary, under the Financial
Warranty. You could lose money if, among other reasons, the Fund incurs
Extraordinary Expenses, or is liquidated prior to the Maturity Date, or if
you redeem your shares prior to the Maturity Date or after the Maturity Date
and the Fund's net asset value is less than the Warranty Amount on the date
of redemption. It is possible that the Warranty Provider will not be able to
satisfy its obligations under the Warranty Agreement as of the Maturity Date
or that the Manager or the Fund will not be able to satisfy their respective
obligations under the Warranty Agreement. As a result, the Fund may not be
able to redeem your shares for the Warranty Amount on the Maturity Date, and
the value of your shares on the Maturity Date may be more or less than your
Warranty Amount. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its
investment objective.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The life of the Fund is divided into three phases: an Offering Period, a
Warranty Period and a Post-Warranty Period.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Offering Period. Shares of the Fund are available for purchase only during
the Offering Period. Investors will receive shares of the Fund
contemporaneously with amounts invested. The Offering Period is expected to
run from __________, 2003 through _________, 2003, unless extended. The Fund
reserves the right to extend the Offering Period. The Fund must receive all
orders and applications to purchase shares by the end of the Offering Period.

      If the Fund does not have at least $75 million in net assets at the end
of the Offering Period, the Board may, at its option, continue the Fund or
liquidate the Fund. If the Fund does not have at least $75 million in net
assets at the end of the Offering Period or if the Board were to decide to
liquidate the Fund, the Warranty Provider would have the option of
terminating the Warranty Agreement. If the Board decides to continue the Fund
with less than $75 million in net assets at the end of the Offering Period,
it will do so only if the Warranty Provider agrees to continue its
obligations under the Warranty Agreement. The Board may also elect to
liquidate the Fund during the Offering Period should the asset allocation
model the Fund employs indicate that the Fund would be predominantly invested
in debt securities during the Warranty Period due to unusual market
conditions (such as a significant decline in prevailing interest rates). In
the event the Fund is liquidated for the reasons stated above, the shares of
the Fund will be exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
and the Fund's Distributor, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., will rebate
or waive any sales charge paid by you in connection with your purchase of
Fund shares (other than as a result of an exchange into the Fund from another
Oppenheimer fund), and shareholders will not receive the benefit of the
Financial Warranty. During the Offering Period and for the two business days
thereafter, the Fund will not invest in shares of the Underlying Fund but
instead will invest all of its assets primarily in money market instruments
and short-term debt securities to seek preservation of capital. You will not
have the benefit of the Financial Warranty during the Offering Period and the
two business days subsequent thereto.

Warranty Period. The Warranty Period will run from the third business day
after the end of the Offering Period - expected to be _________, 2003 through
and including a date seven years later, expected to be ______________, or if
that day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter (previously
defined as the "Maturity Date"). During the Warranty Period, the Fund will
not accept purchase orders for Fund shares, except for reinvestment of
dividends and distributions.

      If you maintain your investment in the Fund through the Maturity Date,
do not redeem any shares, and reinvest all dividends and distributions, you
will be entitled to redeem your shares held as of the Maturity Date for the
greater of the then-current net asset value of your shares or your Warranty
Amount. A transfer or reregistration of existing shares during the Warranty
Period that does not result in an increase in Fund shares that are issued and
outstanding will not interrupt the seven year period calculated to determine
the Warranty Amount. Shareholders must redeem their shares in the Fund on,
and only on, the Maturity Date (_______________) to ensure that they receive
the greater of the then-current net asset value of the Fund or their Warranty
Amount. Prior to the Maturity Date the Fund will provide each shareholder a
notice reminding them that shares must be redeemed on the Maturity Date to
receive the full benefit of the Financial Warranty. In the event there is a
shortfall on the Maturity Date, each redeeming shareholder will be entitled
to redemption proceeds that include a pro rata allocation of any payments
made to the Fund by the Warranty Provider. Shareholders who remain invested
in the Fund past the Maturity Date will also receive the benefit of a
pro-rata allocation of any shortfall payments made by the Warranty Provider,
if any, on the Maturity Date. However, after the Maturity Date shares of the
Fund will not be protected by the Financial Warranty and will be subject to
market fluctuations, and the shares will then be redeemable at the Fund's
then-current net asset value, which may be lower than the Warranty Amount.

      The Fund never restricts your ability to redeem your shares. However,
shareholders who do not reinvest their distributions or dividends will reduce
their Warranty Amount and shareholders who redeem prior to the Maturity Date
will bear the cost of the Warranty Agreement without receiving any
corresponding benefit. As explained in the example on page 23, if you
reinvest your dividends and distributions, the number of shares you own in
the Fund will increase at each date on which a dividend or distribution is
effective and the corresponding Warranty Amount per share decreases so that
your overall Warranty Amount does not change. Therefore, if you fail to
reinvest the Fund's dividends or distributions or you redeem Fund shares,
your overall Warranty Amount will decrease because you will have fewer shares
multiplied by the applicable Warranty Amount per share. See "How is the
Warranty Amount Determined?" for further information. Shareholders (other
than certain retirement plans) are subject to income taxes on distributions
from the Fund whether they take payment of distributions in cash or reinvest
them to purchase additional Fund shares.

      If the Fund incurs certain Extraordinary Expenses or if the Manager is
required to make payments under the Warranty Agreement in certain instances
and the Manager fails to do so in a timely manner, your Warranty Amount also
will be reduced by the proportionate amount of the Extraordinary Expenses or
the amount of the payment which the Manager failed to make.

      "Extraordinary Expenses" means any Fund fees and expenses that are not
incurred or accrued in the ordinary course of the Fund's business (including
for example, all costs of defending or prosecuting any claim, or litigation,
to which the Fund is a party, together with any amounts in judgment,
settlement or indemnification expense incurred by the Fund or any other
non-recurring, non-operating expenses). If the Fund's assets are invested
completely and irreversibly in the debt portfolio, Extraordinary Expenses
will also include any Fund fees and expenses incurred in excess of the Fund's
expense limits whether or not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's
business. Those expense limits are 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. The Fund
will invest its assets completely and irreversibly in the debt portfolio if
the Warranty Formula provides for such allocation or if, under the terms of
the Warranty Agreement, the Warranty Provider exercises its right to instruct
the Manager to allocate the Fund's assets to the debt portfolio, or deliver
to the Fund's Custodian pre-signed instructions from the Manager instructing
the Custodian to immediately allocate all of the assets of the Fund to the
debt portfolio.

Post-Warranty Period. On and after the Maturity Date, you can redeem your
shares or exchange your shares for shares of the same class of another
Oppenheimer fund that offers an exchange privilege. The value of your shares
on the Maturity Date will be the greater of (i) the then-current net asset
value of the Fund or (ii) the Warranty Amount. Because the benefits of the
Warranty Agreement terminate after the Maturity Date, the entire amount of
your investment in the Fund following the Maturity Date will be subject to
market risk.

      If after the Maturity Date shares of the Fund remain issued and
outstanding, the Board may elect at the recommendation of the Manager and
without shareholder approval (1) to have the Fund redeem all issued and
outstanding shares and then terminate the Fund, (2) to merge the Fund into
the Underlying Fund, or (3) to continue the existence of the Fund.
Shareholders who continue their investment in the Fund after the Maturity
Date will receive prior notice of the Board's decision. If the Board chooses
to have the Fund redeem all issued and outstanding shares and terminate the
Fund, those remaining shareholders will receive the then-current net asset
value which may be more or less than their Warranty Amount. If the Board
chooses to continue the existence of the Fund during the Post-Warranty
Period, then the Fund's investment objectives will be changed by the Board to
the single objective of seeking high total return and the Fund's name will
change to an appropriate name as determined by the Board. To achieve that
objective, the Fund may invest its assets during the Post-Warranty Period
primarily in shares of the Underlying Fund, common stocks of U.S. companies
of different capitalization ranges, and debt securities, such as bonds and
debentures. The Manager will sell a portfolio security during the
Post-Warranty Period if it determines that the security will not provide the
return anticipated. During the Post-Warranty Period, the Fund's shares will
be offered on a continuous basis. Shareholders will not have the benefit of
the Financial Warranty during the Post-Warranty Period.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency or any person.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fund's Past Performance

Because the Fund has not commenced  operations,  there is no prior performance
information.  Please  remember  that the Fund is  intended  to be a  long-term
investment  and  that  performance  results  are  historical,  and  that  past
performance  (particularly  over a  short-term  period) is not  predictive  of
future  results.  Because  the Fund may  invest a  significant  amount  of its
assets  in  Class Y  shares  of the  Underlying  Fund,  performance  data  and
financial  information about Class Y shares of the Underlying Fund is included
at the end of this  Prospectus.  That  information  is not intended to predict
the  performance  of the Fund.  The Fund's  performance  will  differ from the
performance of the Underlying Fund.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

The Fund pays a variety of expenses directly for management of its assets,
administration, distribution of its shares and other services and for the
Financial Warranty. Those expenses are subtracted from the Fund's assets to
calculate the Fund's net asset value per share. All shareholders therefore
pay those expenses indirectly. The fees for the Fund may be higher than fees
paid by other mutual funds which do not offer principal protection. In
addition, the Fund and therefore its shareholders will indirectly bear its
pro-rata share of the expenses of the Underlying Fund. Shareholders pay other
expenses directly, such as sales charges and account transaction charges. The
following tables are meant to help you understand the fees and expenses you
may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund. "Other Expenses" and "Total
Annual Operating Expenses" are based on the Fund's anticipated expenses
during its first fiscal year.

Expenses may vary in future years. "Other Expenses" include transfer agent
fees, custodial fees, the Warranty Agreement fee of             % of average
                                                    ------------
daily net assets of the Fund, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund
pays. The Transfer Agent has voluntarily undertaken to the Fund to limit the
transfer agent fees to 0.35% of average daily net assets per fiscal year for
each class. That voluntary undertaking may be amended or terminated at any
time. "Total Annual Operating Expenses" include the Fund's portion of the
Underlying Fund's fees and expenses paid by the Fund as a shareholder of the
Underlying Fund and assumes the Fund invests 50% of its assets in shares of
the Underlying Fund. The Fund's actual operating expenses may be higher as a
result of changes in the allocation of assets to the Underlying Fund, the
expenses of the Underlying Fund and/or the Fund's own expenses.
1. A contingent  deferred sales charge may apply to redemptions of investments
of $1 million or more of Class A shares.  See "How Can You Buy Class A Shares"
for details.
2.  Applies  to  redemptions  in first  year after  purchase.  The  contingent
deferred  sales  charge  declines  to 1% in the sixth  year and is  eliminated
after that.
3. Applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase.
4. A contingent  deferred  sales charge applies to shares  redeemed  within 18
months of retirement plan's first purchase of Class N shares.
5. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares 88 months after
   purchase.
6. "Management Fees" in the table above reflect the maximum annual management
fee rate under the investment advisory agreement. The investment advisory
agreement requires that the Fund's management fee be reduced by the amount of
management fees paid to the Manager by the Underlying Fund on assets
representing investments by the Fund in shares of the Underlying Fund so that
shareholders of the Fund do not pay direct and indirect management fees in
excess of 0.50%. Therefore, as the percentage of the Fund's assets invested
in the Underlying Fund increase, the Fund's management fees will decline, but
not below zero. If the Fund becomes completely and irreversibly invested in
the debt portfolio, the Management Fees will be 0.25% for the remainder of
the Warranty Period. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive its
management fee to 0.40% (annualized) per month in any month following a month
where the average daily equity allocation was less than 10%. The Manager may
amend or terminate that voluntary undertaking at any time without notice to
shareholders.
7. The Manager has  contractually  agreed to reduce its management fee for the
remainder  of  the  Warranty  Period  in  the  event  that  the  Fund  becomes
completely  and  irreversibly  invested  in the debt  portfolio  to the extent
necessary so that total annual  operating  expenses of the Fund are limited to
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.  Those  expense  limitations  do not  include
Extraordinary  Expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course
of the Fund's  business.  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. If the Fund's annual operating  expenses exceed those
limits while the Fund's assets are  completely and  irreversibly  allocated to
the debt portfolio,  the Warranty Amount will be reduced by the portion of the
Fund's annual operating  expenses that exceed those limits.  Additionally,  if
the Fund becomes  completely and irreversibly  invested in the debt portfolio,
the  Warranty  Fee  payable  by the Fund to the  Warranty  Provider  under the
Warranty  Agreement  will  decrease to _____% per annum.  In such  event,  the
Fund's  Management Fees,  Other Expenses and Total Annual  Operating  Expenses
would be estimated as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             Class A      Class B      Class C     Class N
                             Shares        Shares      Shares       Shares

Expenses
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8. 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. The amount of
expense reimbursement shown in the fee table above assumes an allocation of
50% of the Fund's assets to shares of the Underlying Fund. That expense
reimbursement will fluctuate as the allocation changes. The Manager may amend
or terminate that voluntary undertaking at any time without notice to
shareholders.  The Manager has voluntarily undertaken to waive its management
fee and assume all expenses of the Fund, with the exception of the 12b-1 fee,
during the Warranty Period.

EXAMPLES. The following examples are intended to help you compare the cost of
investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The
examples are based on the Total Annual Operating Expenses shown in the table
above, and assume that you invest $10,000 in a class of shares of the Fund
for the time periods indicated and reinvest your dividends and distributions.

      The first example assumes that you redeem all of your shares at the end
of those periods. The second example assumes that you keep your shares. Both
examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year and that
the class's operating expenses remain the same. Your actual costs may be
higher or lower because expenses will vary over time. Based on these
assumptions your expenses would be as follows:

-----------------------------------------------------------
If shares are redeemed:            1 Year       3 Years
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class A Shares                      $764        $1,161
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class B Shares                      $776        $1,147
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class C Shares                      $376         $847
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class N Shares                      $326         $697
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
If shares are not redeemed:        1 Year       3 Years
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class A Shares                      $764        $1,161
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class B Shares                      $276         $847
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class C Shares                      $276         $847
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
Class N Shares                      $226         $697
-----------------------------------------------------------

In the first example, expenses include the initial sales charge for Class A
and the applicable Class B, Class C or Class N contingent deferred sales
charges. In the second example, the Class A expenses include the sales
charge, but Class B, Class C and Class N expenses do not include the
contingent deferred sales charges.

About the Fund's Investments

THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES. The allocation of the Fund's assets
among the debt portfolio and the equity portfolio will vary over time based
upon the Warranty Formula, which is a mathematical formula intended to allow
the Fund to have a net asset value on the Maturity Date at least equal to the
Warranty Amount. The Statement of Additional Information contains more
detailed information about the Fund's investment policies and risks.

Investment in Shares of Oppenheimer Main Street Fund. The Fund invests the
equity portfolio in Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Main Street Fund (the
"Underlying Fund"). The Underlying Fund seeks high total return, by investing
mainly in common stocks of U.S. companies of different capitalization ranges,
presently focusing on large capitalization issuers. It also can buy debt
securities, such as bonds and debentures but does not currently emphasize
these investments. The portfolio managers of the Underlying Fund use a
variety of proprietary quantitative models to rank stocks on the basis of
valuation, momentum and investor psychology, fundamental research about
particular industries and individual judgment. While this process and the
inter-relationship of the factors used may change over time and its
implementation may vary in particular cases, in general the selection process
currently involves the use of:
   o  Multi-factor  quantitative  models:  These include a group of "top-down"
      models that analyze  data such as relative  valuations,  relative  price
      trends,  interest  rates and the shape of the yield  curve.  These  help
      direct  portfolio  emphasis  by market  capitalization  (small,  mid, or
      large),  industries,  and value or growth styles. A group of "bottom up"
      models  helps to rank  stocks in a  universe  typically  including  3000
      stocks,  selecting stocks for relative attractiveness by analyzing stock
      and company characteristics.
   o  Fundamental research: The portfolio managers use internal research and
      analysis by other market analysts, with emphasis on current company
      news and industry-related events.
   o  Judgment: The Underlying Fund's portfolio is then continuously
      rebalanced by the portfolio managers, using the tools described above.

      The portfolio managers of the Underlying Fund emphasize wide
diversification. The allocation of the Underlying Fund's portfolio among
different investments will vary over time based upon the Manager's evaluation
of economic and market trends. The Underlying Fund's portfolio might not
always include all of the different types of investments described below.

Stock Investments. The Underlying Fund currently invests mainly in common
      stocks. The Underlying Fund currently focuses on securities of issuers
      that have large capitalizations. Historically their stock prices have
      tended to be less volatile than securities of smaller issuers. However,
      the Underlying Fund can buy stocks of issuers in all capitalization
      ranges. "Capitalization" refers to the market value of all of the
      issuer's outstanding common stock.
Debt Securities. The mix of equities and debt securities in the Underlying
      Fund's portfolio will vary over time depending on the Manager's
      judgment about market and economic conditions. The Underlying Fund
      currently does not emphasize investment in debt securities. The
      Underlying Fund's investments in debt securities can include securities
      issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and
      instrumentalities, and foreign and domestic corporate bonds, notes and
      debentures. They may be selected for their income possibilities, for
      liquidity and to help cushion fluctuations in the Underlying Fund's net
      asset values.
      The debt securities the Underlying Fund buys may be rated by nationally
      recognized rating organizations such as Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
      or Standard & Poor's Rating Service or they may be unrated securities
      assigned a comparable rating by the Manager.
o     Special Credit Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. The Underlying Fund can
      invest up to 25% of its total assets in "lower-grade" securities
      commonly known as "junk bonds." These are securities rated below "Baa"
      by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or "BBB" by Standard & Poors Ratings
      Service or having similar ratings by other ratings organizations, or if
      unrated, assigned a comparable rating by the Manager. However, the
      Underlying Fund currently does not intend to invest more than 10% of
      its assets in lower-grade securities and cannot invest more than 10% of
      its total assets in lower-grade securities that are not convertible.
      Debt securities below investment grade, whether rated or unrated, have
      greater risks than investment-grade securities. There may be less of a
      market for them and therefore they may be harder to sell at an
      acceptable price. There is a relatively greater possibility that the
      issuer's earnings may be insufficient to make the payments of interest
      and principal when due. These risks mean that the Underlying Fund's net
      asset value per share could be affected by declines in value of these
      securities.
Risks of Foreign Investing. The Underlying Fund can buy securities of
      companies or governments in any country, developed or underdeveloped.
      While there is no limit on the amount of the Underlying Fund's assets
      that may be invested in foreign securities, the Manager does not
      currently plan to invest significant amounts of the Underlying Fund's
      assets in foreign securities. While foreign securities offer special
      investment opportunities, there are also special risks, such as the
      effects of a change in value of a foreign currency against the U.S.
      dollar, which will result in a change in the U.S. dollar value of
      securities denominated in that foreign currency.
Other Equity Securities. Equity securities include common stocks, as well as
      "equity equivalents" such as preferred stocks and securities
      convertible into common stock. Preferred stock has a set dividend rate
      and ranks after bonds and before common stocks in its claim for
      dividends and on assets if the issuer is liquidated or becomes
      bankrupt. The Manager considers some convertible securities to be
      "equity equivalents" because of the conversion feature and in that case
      their rating has less impact on the investment decision than in the
      case of debt securities.
Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Investments may be illiquid because they
      do not have an active trading market, making it difficult to value them
      or dispose of them promptly at an acceptable price. A restricted
      security is one that has a contractual restriction on its resale or
      which cannot be sold publicly until it is registered under the
      Securities Act of 1933. The Underlying Fund will not invest more than
      10% of its net assets in illiquid or restricted securities (the Board
      can increase that limit to 15%). Certain restricted securities that are
      eligible for resale to qualified institutional purchasers are not
      subject to that limit. The Manager monitors holdings of illiquid
      securities on an ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any
      holdings to maintain adequate liquidity.
Derivative Investments. The Underlying Fund can invest in a number of
      different kinds of "derivative" investments. In general terms, a
      derivative investment is an investment contract whose value depends on
      (or is derived from) the value of an underlying asset, interest rate or
      index. In the broadest sense, options, futures contracts, and other
      hedging instruments the Underlying Fund might use may be considered
      "derivative" investments. The Underlying Fund currently does not use
      derivatives to a significant degree and is not required to use them in
      seeking its objective.
      Derivatives have risks. If the issuer of the derivative investment does
      not pay the amount due, the Underlying Fund can lose money on the
      investment. The underlying security or investment on which a derivative
      is based, and the derivative itself, may not perform the way the
      Manager expected it to. As a result of these risks the Underlying Fund
      could realize less principal or income from the investment than
      expected or its hedge might be unsuccessful. As a result, the
      Underlying Fund's share prices could fall. Certain derivative
      investments held by the Underlying Fund might be illiquid.
   o  Hedging. The Underlying Fund can buy and sell futures contracts, put
      and call options, forward contracts and options on futures and
      securities indices. These are all referred to as "hedging instruments."
      Some of these strategies would hedge the Underlying Fund's portfolio
      against price fluctuations. Other hedging strategies, such as buying
      futures and call options, would tend to increase the Underlying Fund's
      exposure to the securities market.
      There are also special risks in particular hedging strategies. Options
      trading involves the payment of premiums and can increase portfolio
      turnover. If the Manager used a hedging instrument at the wrong time or
      judged market conditions incorrectly, the strategy could reduce the
      Underlying Fund's return.
Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments. In times of unstable adverse
      market or economic conditions, the Underlying Fund can invest up to
      100% of its total assets in temporary defensive investments that are
      inconsistent with its principal investment strategies. Generally, they
      would be money market instruments, U.S. government securities,
      highly-rated commercial paper, or repurchase agreements. The Underlying
      Fund may also hold these types of securities pending the investment of
      proceeds from the sale of Underlying Fund shares or portfolio
      securities or to meet anticipated redemptions of Underlying Fund
      shares. To the extent the Underlying Fund invests defensively in these
      securities, it may not achieve its investment objective.
      For more information about the types of securities the Underlying Fund
      may invest in, you can request a prospectus of Oppenheimer Main Street
      Fund by calling the toll-free number listed on the back cover of this
      prospectus.

Investment in Debt Securities. As stated above, during the Offering Period
the Fund will invest in short-term debt securities. 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 a maturity approximately equal to the period remaining in
the Warranty Period. The Fund might also invest in high-grade corporate debt
securities.

U.S. Government Securities. U.S. government securities the Fund buys will
      consist of 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 (having
      maturities of one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (having
      maturities of more than one year and up to ten years when issued), and
      Treasury bonds (having 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. The Fund can buy U. S. Treasury securities that have been
      "stripped" of their coupons and zero-coupon 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 U.S. government. Government National Mortgage
      Association ("Ginnie Mae") pass-through mortgage certificates, for
      example, are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
      government.
Zero-Coupon Securities. Some of the debt securities the Fund buys are
      zero-coupon bonds that pay no interest. The Fund can invest up to 100%
      of its assets in zero-coupon U.S. government securities. They are
      issued at a substantial discount from their face value.
      Zero-coupon securities are subject to greater fluctuations in price
      from interest rate changes than typical debt securities that pay
      interest on a regular basis. The Fund may have to pay out the imputed
      income on zero-coupon securities without receiving the cash currently.
      The Fund will not purchase zero coupon securities in the form of
      collateralized mortgage obligations.
Short-Term Debt Securities. The Fund can buy high-quality, short-term money
      market instruments, including obligations of the U.S. Government and
      its agencies, and certain short-term demand and time deposits in,
      certificates of deposit of and bankers' acceptances issued by certain
      U.S. depository institutions or trust companies, and certain commercial
      paper, which are short-term, negotiable promissory notes of companies.
      Because these instruments tend to offer lower yields than other debt
      securities, the Fund ordinarily uses them for liquidity and cash
      management purposes or for defensive purposes when market conditions
      are unstable.
Portfolio Turnover. The Fund can engage in active and frequent trading to try
      to achieve its objective, and will likely have a high portfolio
      turnover rate. Portfolio turnover increases the Fund's transaction
      costs. However, most of the Fund's portfolio transactions are principal
      trades that do not entail brokerage fees. If the Fund realizes capital
      gains when it sells its portfolio investments, it must generally pay
      those gains out to shareholders, increasing their taxable
      distributions.

Asset allocation. The Manager allocates the Fund's assets between the equity
portfolio (shares of the Underlying Fund) and the debt portfolio (primarily
zero coupon U.S. government securities) based upon the Warranty Formula. The
Manager evaluates the relative allocation between the equity portfolio and
debt portfolio daily and makes any necessary adjustments to the Fund's
portfolio. The Warranty Formula may allocate between 0% to 100% of the Fund's
assets to the equity portfolio. However, at the Fund's commencement of
operations following the Offering Period, it is anticipated that
approximately 40% to 60% of the Fund's assets will be allocated to the equity
portfolio. The allocation during the Warranty Period will fluctuate in
response to changes in the securities markets. Factors reflected in the asset
allocation methodology include, but are 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
o     The length of time remaining until the Maturity Date

      Under the terms of the Warranty Agreement, the Fund may be required in
certain limited circumstances, including a material decline in the value of
the Fund's assets relative to the Warranty Amount or a breach by the Fund or
the Manager of its obligations under the Warranty Agreement, to invest all or
a substantial portion of its assets in U.S. government securities (as well as
cash and cash equivalents to the extent necessary to meet redemption requests
and Fund expenses) or in zero coupon U.S. government securities (and cash or
cash equivalents to the extent necessary to meet redemption requests and Fund
expenses), or under certain circumstances, high-grade corporate debt
securities.

      Specifically, situations where the Warranty Provider can require the
Fund to invest all of its assets in the debt portfolio include:
o     if the Fund issues additional shares during the Warranty Period in
         violation of the Warranty Agreement;
o     if the Fund invests in securities other than as permitted in this
         prospectus;
o     if the Fund's investment in the equity portfolio on any given day
         exceeds certain limitations as established by, or fails to allocate
         assets pursuant to, the Warranty Formula;
o     if the Fund fails to comply with the expense limitations imposed on the
         Fund if it is required to invest completely and irreversibly in the
         debt portfolio;
o     if the Fund fails to pay the Warranty Agreement fee when due;
o     if the investment advisory agreement with the Manager is terminated and
         the successor investment adviser is not acceptable to the Warranty
         Provider;
o     if the Manager fails to manage the Fund in accordance with its
         objectives, policies and strategies;
o     if the Manager or the Custodian fail to provide the Warranty Provider
         with certain information necessary for it to monitor the Fund's
         compliance with the Warranty Agreement;
o     if representations or warranties made by the Manager or the Fund in
         certain agreements and documents were incorrect or misleading when
         made;
o     if the Manager, the Fund or the Custodian fails to perform any
         obligation or breaches any covenant under the Warranty Agreement or
         other related agreements and such failure could have an adverse
         effect on the Warranty Provider (including a change to the Fund's
         investment objective or any material change to the Fund's investment
         policies or strategies without the Warranty Provider's prior written
         consent, even where such change is in the Fund's and the
         shareholders' best interest);
o     if the commencement of any proceeding in a federal, state or local
         court which if adversely determined, could have an adverse effect on
         the Manager or the Fund;
o     if an action or proceeding is commenced to place the Fund or the
         Manager in receivership or bankruptcy;
o     if any governmental or regulatory action limits, suspends, or
         terminates the rights, privileges or operation of the Manager or the
         Fund that could adversely affect the Manager or the Fund; or
o     if the Warranty Formula calls for an allocation to equity securities to
         be below 2.5%.

      Under the Warranty Agreement, the Fund is also required to satisfy
certain risk management requirements, which will also restrict the manner in
which the Fund may invest its assets. The Fund's holdings of cash and cash
equivalents will generally be limited to an amount necessary to meet
anticipated expenses and redemptions.

      The Warranty Formula may require the Fund to have a higher portfolio
turnover rate as compared to other mutual funds.

The Warranty Agreement and the Financial Warranty. The Fund has entered into
the Warranty Agreement to help make sure that on the Maturity Date, each
shareholder will be entitled to redeem his or her shares for an amount not
less than the Warranty Amount, i.e., the initial value of that shareholder's
account on the second business day after the end of the Offering Period
(including any net income earned by the Fund during the Offering Period and
the two business days subsequent thereto, but reduced by any adjustments the
Warranty Provider is permitted to make under the Warranty Agreement and less
sales charges and Extraordinary Expenses and a proportionate reduction for
dividends and distributions paid in cash and shares redeemed). Certain
calculations under the Warranty Agreement (including the calculation of any
shortfall) will be performed by an affiliate of the Warranty Provider as
calculation agent.

      The Warranty Agreement requires the Manager to comply with certain
agreed upon investment parameters in an attempt to limit the Fund's risk.
These investment parameters are designed to reduce, but do not eliminate, the
risk that the Fund's assets will be insufficient to allow the Fund to redeem
shares at not less than the Warranty Amount on the Maturity Date. 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. If the Fund receives notice of termination from the Warranty
Provider, the Fund will promptly notify shareholders of such termination.

These circumstances include:
o     if the Fund liquidates, is merged, reorganizes or sells all or
      substantially all of its assets;
o     if the Manager ceases to be the adviser of the Fund and any successor
      adviser is not acceptable to the Warranty Provider;
o     if the custodian agreement is terminated or amended and in either case
      the custodian or successor custodian is no longer obligated or does not
      agree to provide the Warranty Provider with certain information
      regarding the Fund's portfolio as required by the Warranty Agreement;
o     if under the terms of the Warranty Agreement, the Manager or the
      custodian is required to allocate all of the Fund's assets to the debt
      portfolio and fails to do so within a reasonable time;
o     if the Fund's assets are not invested entirely in the fixed-income
      portfolio when required by the Warranty Agreement.

      The Warranty Provider (or its affiliate) 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. In monitoring the Fund's
compliance, the Warranty Provider (or its affiliate) will rely predominantly
on information provided by the Fund, the Manager and the Fund's custodian.

      The Warranty Provider may terminate the Warranty Agreement prior to the
Warranty Period if the Fund's net assets at the end of the Offering Period
are less than $75 million. The Fund and the Manager may terminate the
Warranty Agreement if the Warranty Provider becomes insolvent or if the
credit rating of Bank of America Corporation is suspended, withdrawn or
downgraded below "BBB+" by S&P or "Baa1" by Moodys.

      The Fund will pay to the Warranty Provider, under the Warranty
Agreement, an annual fee equal to           % of the average daily net assets
                                  ----------
of the Fund during the Warranty Period. If the Fund is required to make a
complete and irreversible allocation of its assets to the debt portfolio, the
Warranty fee will thereafter be reduced to ______% of the average daily net
assets of the Fund. 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 his or her Warranty Amount (a "Shortfall"), the Warranty
Provider will pay to the Fund an amount sufficient to make sure that each
shareholder's account can be redeemed on the Maturity Date for an amount
equal to his or her Warranty Amount. The amount of any Shortfall required to
be paid by the Warranty Provider will be less if the Warranty Amount is
reduced.  The Warranty Amount will be reduced by (i) the amount of any
dividends and distributions taken in cash rather than reinvested in
additional shares of the Fund; (ii) the value of any shares redeemed; (iii)
the shareholder's pro rata portion of the amount of any Extraordinary
Expenses or any expenses incurred by the Fund in excess of the expense limits
described under "Warranty Period" on page 11; (iv) the shareholder's pro rata
portion of the value of any shares issued by the Fund during the Warranty
Period other than in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions; (v) the amount of any increase in the Warranty Amount per
share as a result of changes in accounting practices for the Fund, corporate
actions or certain other events; and (vi) if the Manager is required to make
payments under the Warranty Agreement in certain instances and the Manager
fails to do so in a timely manner, the amount of the payments the Manager
failed to make (on a pro rata basis).

      A shareholder's ability to receive his or her Warranty Amount depends
on the financial condition of the Warranty Provider. If the Warranty Provider
becomes insolvent or its credit deteriorates substantially, payment under the
Financial Warranty may not be made or may become unlikely. In such event, the
Board could take a variety of actions, including replacing the Financial
Warranty or liquidation of the Fund. In such circumstances, shareholders
could suffer a loss of principal. The Board is under no obligation to replace
the Financial Warranty. If it does so, the fee charged by any replacement
warranty provider may be higher or lower than the fee charged by Main Place
Funding, LLC.  If the Board were to determine that liquidation of the Fund
during the Warranty Period is in the shareholders' best interests, the
Warranty Agreement would automatically terminate upon such liquidation and
the Warranty Provider would have no obligations to make a payment to the
Fund. In that event neither the Manager nor any other person would be liable
to make a payment to the Fund to provide shareholders with their Warranty
Amount. Upon liquidation, shareholders would receive the then-current net
asset value of their Fund account, which may be less than the Warranty Amount
they would have received on the Maturity Date.

      The Warranty Agreement may be amended with the prior consent of the
Warranty Provider, the Fund and the Manager. Therefore, material changes to
the Warranty Agreement may be made without shareholder approval, even to the
extent such change could have a direct or indirect impact on a shareholder's
investment in the Fund. Any material amendments to the Warranty Agreement
will be disclosed in amendments to this prospectus.

      The Fund will provide you with a copy of the most recent audited annual
or unaudited quarterly financial statements of the Warranty Provider, free of
charge, upon your request. To receive a copy of these financial statements
please contact the Fund at the telephone number or write to the Fund at the
address shown on the outside back cover of this Prospectus.

CAN THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES CHANGE? The Fund's Board of
Trustees can change non-fundamental investment policies without shareholder
approval, although significant changes will be described in amendments to
this Prospectus. Fundamental policies cannot be changed without the approval
of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting shares. The Fund's investment
objective is a non-fundamental policy. Investment restrictions that are
fundamental policies are listed in the Statement of Additional Information.
An investment policy is not fundamental unless this Prospectus or the
Statement of Additional Information says that it is.

How is the Warranty Amount Determined?

Example.*Assume you have $20,000 to invest in Fund shares. Assume that you
decided to purchase Class A shares and the public offering price is $10.61
per share (initial net asset value of $10.00 per share plus a sales load of
5.75%). After deducting your sales load of 5.75%,
$18,850.14 will be invested in Fund shares and you will have 1,885.01 shares
in your account. Your initial Warranty Amount will be $18,850.14.

* Figures used in the example have been rounded to the nearest hundredth.
The full amount of your investment will not receive the benefit of the
Financial Warranty. Rather, the Financial Warranty protects only the amount
invested, as reduced by any adjustments to the Warranty Amount by the
Warranty Provider permitted under the Warranty Agreement and less any sales
charges and your proportionate share of certain Extraordinary Expenses, and
reduced proportionately for any dividends paid in cash or redemption of
shares.

Redemption of shares during the Warranty Period will decrease the Warranty
Amount to which a shareholder is entitled. If a shareholder redeems shares in
the Fund, he or she will then hold fewer shares at the then-current Warranty
Amount per share, thereby reducing the overall Warranty Amount for the
shareholder. A redemption made from the Fund prior to the Maturity Date will
be made at the Fund's then-current net asset value per share, less any
applicable deferred sales charge, which may be higher or lower than the
Warranty Amount per share.

The Warranty Amount per share will decline as dividends and distributions are
made to shareholders. If a shareholder automatically reinvests dividends and
distributions in additional shares of the Fund, the shareholder's total
Warranty Amount will remain the same because he or she will hold a greater
number of shares at a reduced Warranty Amount per share following payment of
a dividend or distribution. The result is to preserve the total Warranty
Amount to which he or she was entitled before the dividend or distribution
was made. If a shareholder elects to receive any dividends or distributions
in cash, however, he or she will hold the original number of shares at the
reduced Warranty Amount per share following payment of a dividend or
distribution. This will reduce the Warranty Amount to which such shareholder
was entitled before the dividend or distribution was made.

Example 1. Assume you reinvest your dividends and distributions. The number
of shares you own in the Fund will increase at each date on which a dividend
or distribution is effective. Although the number of shares in your account
increases, and the Warranty Amount per share decreases, your overall Warranty
Amount does not change. Using our example, assume it is now ____________,
2003 and the Fund makes effective a dividend of $0.15 per share. Also, assume
that the net asset value is $11.25 per share at the end of the day on
___________, 2003.

To recalculate your Warranty Amount per share:
1.    Determine the value of your dividend. Your total dividend will equal
         the per share dividend multiplied by the number of shares you own
         the day before the dividend is declared. In our example, we will
         multiply 1,885.01 shares by $0.15 per share to arrive at $282.75.
2.    Determine the number of shares that will get added to your account when
         your dividend is reinvested. Your additional shares equal the value
         of your dividend divided by the ending net asset value per share on
         the day the dividend was declared. In our case, $282.75 divided by
         $11.25 equals 25.13 additional shares.
3.    Adjust your account for your additional shares. Add 1,885.01 and 25.13
         to arrive at your new share balance of 1,910.14.
4.    Determine your new Warranty Amount per share. Take your original
         Warranty Amount and divide by your new share balance. Using our
         example, divide $18,850.14 by 1,910.14 shares to arrive at the new
         Warranty Amount per share of $9.87.
5.    Your Warranty Amount still equals $18,850.14.

      If you do not reinvest your dividends and distributions in additional
shares of the Fund, your Warranty Amount will be reduced with the same effect
as if you had reinvested such dividends and distributions and then
immediately redeemed them.

Example 2. Assume you elect to receive Fund dividends and distributions in
cash. On each date on which a dividend or distribution is effective, the
number of shares you own in the Fund will remain the same and the Warranty
Amount per share will decrease resulting in your overall Warranty Amount
declining. Using our example, assume it is now __________, 2003 and the Fund
makes effective a dividend of $0.15 per share. Also assume that the net asset
value is $11.25 per share at the end of the day on ___________, 2003.

      To recalculate your Warranty Amount per share:
1.    Determine the value of your dividend. Your total dividend will equal
         the per share dividend multiplied by the number of shares you own
         the day before the dividend is declared. In our example, we multiply
         1,885.01 shares by $0.15 per share to arrive at $282.75. If you
         reinvested the distribution, you would have received 25.13
         additional shares for a total of 1,910.14 shares. However, because
         you will receive this amount in cash rather than additional Fund
         shares, the number of Fund shares you own remains at 1,885.01.

2.    Determine your new Warranty Amount per share. Take your original
         Warranty Amount and divide by the number of shares you would have
         had if you reinvested the distribution. Using our example, divide
         $18,850.14 by 1,910.14 shares to arrive at $9.87 per share.

3.    Multiply $9.87 by the number of shares you actually own (1,885.01) to
         arrive at your new Warranty Amount of $18,605.05.

      Although shareholders can perform this calculation themselves, the Fund
will recalculate the Warranty Amount per share whenever the Fund declares a
dividend or makes a distribution. It is possible that the Fund's calculations
may differ from a shareholder's calculation, for example, because of rounding
or the number of decimal places used. In each case, the Fund's calculations
will control.

      See "Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes" for additional details
regarding the Financial Warranty.

How the Fund is Managed

THE MANAGER. The Manager chooses the Fund's investments and handles its
day-to-day business. The Manager carries out its duties, subject to the
policies established by the Fund's Board of Trustees, under an investment
advisory agreement that states the Manager's responsibilities. The agreement
sets the fees the Fund pays to the Manager and describes the expenses that
the Fund is responsible to pay to conduct its business.

The Manager has been an investment advisor since January 1960. The Manager
and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates managed more than $________
billion in assets as of __________, 2003, including other Oppenheimer funds,
with more than ____ million shareholder accounts. The Manager is located at
498 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10018.

Portfolio Managers.  Angelo Manioudakis and other investment professionals
      selected from the Manager's high-grade team in its fixed-income
      department are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of
      the Fund's fixed-income portfolio.  Kenneth Winston and other members
      of the Manager's risk management department shall be primarily
      responsible for the allocation of the Fund's assets between shares of
      Oppenheimer Main Street Growth & Income Fund and debt securities.
      Messrs. Manioudakis and Winston are Vice Presidents of the Fund and
      Senior Vice Presidents of the Manager.  Prior to joining the Manager in
      April 2002, Mr. Manioudakis was a portfolio Manager at Morgan Stanley
      Investment Management (since August 1993).  Prior to joining the
      Manager in May 2001, Mr. Winston was a Managing Partner at Richards &
      Tierney, Inc. (since 1994).

Advisory Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the
      Manager a management fee at an annual rate of 0.50% of the average
      annual net assets of the Fund. 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. The
      Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive its management fee during the
      Offering Period. In addition, during the Warranty Period the Manager
      has voluntarily agreed to reduce the management fee payable by the Fund
      to 0.40% (annualized) 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.

ABOUT your account

How to Buy Shares

HOW DO YOU BUY SHARES DURING THE OFFERING PERIOD? Shares of the Fund may only
be purchased during the Offering Period which is expected to run from
_________, 2003 through ___________, 2003, unless extended. The Fund reserves
the right to extend the Offering Period. You can buy shares several ways, as
described below. The Fund's Distributor, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc.,
may appoint servicing agents to accept purchase (and redemption) orders. The
Distributor, in its sole discretion, may reject any purchase order for the
Fund's shares.
Buying Shares Through Your Dealer. You can buy shares through any dealer,
      broker or financial institution that has a sales agreement with the
      Distributor. Your dealer will place your order with the Distributor on
      your behalf.
Buying Shares Through the Distributor. Complete an OppenheimerFunds New
      Account Application and return it with a check payable to
      "OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc." Mail it to P.O. Box 5270, Denver,
      Colorado 80217. If you don't list a dealer on the application, the
      Distributor will act as your agent in buying the shares. However, we
      recommend that you discuss your investment with a financial advisor
      before you make a purchase to be sure that the Fund is appropriate for
      you.
o     Paying by Federal Funds Wire. Shares purchased through the Distributor
      may be paid for by Federal Funds wire. The minimum investment is
      $5,000, $2,500 for retirement plans. Before sending a wire, call the
      Distributor's Wire Department at 1.800.225.5677 to notify the
      Distributor of the wire and to receive further instructions.
o     Buying Shares Through OppenheimerFunds AccountLink. With AccountLink,
      you pay for shares by electronic funds transfers from your bank
      account. Shares are purchased for your account by a transfer of money
      from your bank account through the Automated Clearing House (ACH)
      system. You can provide those instructions by telephone using
      OppenheimerFunds PhoneLink, described below. Please refer to
      "PhoneLink," below for more details.
o     You may not purchase additional shares during the Warranty Period other
      than in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

HOW MUCH MUST YOU INVEST? You can buy Fund shares with a minimum investment
of $5,000. Under retirement plans, such as IRAs, pension and profit-sharing
plans, the minimum investment is $2,500. The minimum investment requirement
does not apply to reinvesting dividends in the Fund.

AT WHAT PRICE ARE SHARES SOLD? Orders to purchase shares must be received no
later than _________, 2003 unless the offering period is extended. The Fund
may reject any order to buy shares. Shares will not be offered during the
Warranty Period, except in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions. Selected securities dealers or other financial intermediaries,
may directly charge you a processing fee to confirm a purchase. Such
processing fee is not included in the Warranty Amount. Shares are sold at
their offering price which is the net asset value per share plus any initial
sales charge that applies. The offering price that applies to a purchase
order is based on the next calculation of the net asset value per share that
is made after the Distributor receives the purchase order at its offices in
Colorado, or after any agent appointed by the Distributor receives the order
and sends it to the Distributor.

Net Asset Value. The Fund calculates the net asset value of each class of
      shares as of the close of The New York Stock Exchange, on each day the
      Exchange is open for trading (referred to in this Prospectus as a
      "regular business day"). The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M.,
      Eastern time, but may close earlier on some days. All references to
      time in this Prospectus mean "Eastern time."

      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. To determine net asset value, the
      Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures to value the Fund's
      securities.

      If, after the close of the principal market on which a security held by
      the Fund is traded, and before the time the Fund's securities are
      priced that day, an event occurs that the Manager deems likely to cause
      a material change in the value of such security, the Fund's Board of
      Trustees has authorized the Manager, subject to the Board's review, to
      ascertain a fair value for such security. A security's valuation may
      differ depending on the method used for determining value.

The Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, in
      most cases the Distributor or its designated agent must receive your
      order by the time of day The New York Stock Exchange closes that day.
      If your order is received on a day when the Exchange is closed or after
      it has closed, the order will receive the next offering price that is
      determined after your order is received.

Buying Through a Dealer. If you buy shares through a dealer, your dealer must
      receive the order by the close of The New York Stock Exchange and
      transmit it to the Distributor so that it is received no later than the
      Distributor's close of business on ________, 2003, unless your dealer
      has made alternative arrangements with the Distributor.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT CLASSES OF SHARES DOES THE FUND OFFER? The Fund offers investors four
different classes of shares. The different classes of shares represent
investments in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes are subject
to different expenses and will likely have different share prices. When you
buy shares, be sure to specify the class of shares. If you do not choose a
class, your investment will be made in Class A shares.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class A Shares. If you buy Class A shares, you pay an initial sales charge
      (on investments up to $1 million). The amount of that sales charge will
      vary depending on the amount you invest. The sales charge rates are
      listed in "How Can You Buy Class A Shares?" below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class B Shares. If you buy Class B shares, you pay no sales charge at the
      time of purchase, but you will pay an annual asset-based sales charge.
      If you sell your shares within six years of buying them, you will
      normally pay a contingent deferred sales charge. That contingent
      deferred sales charge varies depending on how long you own your shares,
      as described in "How Can You Buy Class B Shares?" below. Class B shares
      automatically convert to Class A shares 88 months after purchase.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class C Shares. If you buy Class C shares, you pay no sales charge at the
      time of purchase, but you will pay an annual asset-based sales charge.
      If you sell your shares within 12 months of buying them, you will
      normally pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%, as described
      in "How Can You Buy Class C Shares?" below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class N Shares. If you buy Class N shares (available only through certain
      retirement plans), you pay no sales charge at the time of purchase, but
      you will pay an annual asset-based sales charge. If you sell your
      shares within 18 months of the retirement plan's first purchase of
      Class N shares, you may pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%,
      as described in "How Can You Buy Class N Shares?" below.

WHICH CLASS OF SHARES SHOULD YOU CHOOSE? Once you decide that the Fund is an
appropriate investment for you, the decision as to which class of shares is
best suited to your needs depends on a number of factors that you should
discuss with your financial advisor. Some factors to consider are how much
you plan to invest and how long you plan to hold your investment. Because the
front-end sales charge you pay on the purchase of Class A shares reduces the
Warranty Amount for Class A shareholders, Class A shares will have a lower
Warranty Amount than the Class B, Class C or Class N shares. If your goals
and objectives change over time, you should re-evaluate those factors to see
if you should consider another class of shares. The Fund's operating costs
that apply to a class of shares and the effect of the different types of
sales charges on your investment will vary your investment results over time.

      The discussion below is not intended to be investment advice or a
recommendation, because each investor's financial considerations are
different. The discussion below assumes that you will purchase only one class
of shares and not a combination of shares of different classes. Of course,
these examples are based on approximations of the effects of current sales
charges and expenses projected over time, and do not detail all of the
considerations in selecting a class of shares. You should analyze your
options carefully with your financial advisor before making that choice.

How Long Do You Expect to Hold Your Investment? While future financial needs
      cannot be predicted with certainty, knowing how long you expect to hold
      your investment will assist you in selecting the appropriate class of
      shares. The Fund is designed for those investors who do not anticipate
      needing to take dividends and distributions in cash or needing to
      redeem their shares prior to the Maturity Date. Because of the effect
      of class-based expenses, your choice will also depend on how much you
      plan to invest. For retirement plans that qualify to purchase Class N
      shares, Class N shares will generally be more advantageous than Class B
      and Class C shares.

      For non-retirement plan investors who invest $1 million or more, in
      most cases Class A shares will be the most advantageous choice, no
      matter how long you intend to hold your shares. For that reason, the
      Distributor normally will not accept purchase orders of $500,000 or
      more of Class B shares or $1 million or more of Class C shares from a
      single investor. If you are investing less than $100,000 and intend on
      redeeming your shares on the Maturity Date and do not expect to need
      access to your money for the seven year Warranty Period, Class B or
      Class C shares may be more appropriate.

Are There  Differences  in Account  Features  That Matter to You? Some account
      features  may  not  be  available  to  Class  B,  Class  C and  Class  N
      shareholders.  Other  features  may  not be  advisable  (because  of the
      effect of the  contingent  deferred  sales  charge) for Class B, Class C
      and Class N shareholders.  Therefore,  you should  carefully  review how
      you plan to use your  investment  account before deciding which class of
      shares to buy.

      Additionally, the dividends payable to Class B, Class C and Class N
      shareholders will be reduced by the additional expenses borne by those
      classes that are not borne by Class A shares, such as the Class B,
      Class C and Class N asset-based sales charge described below and in the
      Statement of Additional Information. Share certificates will not be
      issued for any class of shares of the Fund except for Class A share
      accounts with a value of $1 million or more. If you are considering
      using your shares as collateral for a loan, that may be a factor to
      consider.

How Do Share Classes Affect Payments to Your Broker? A financial advisor may
      receive different compensation for selling one class of shares than for
      selling another class. It is important to remember that Class B, Class
      C and Class N contingent deferred sales charges and asset-based sales
      charges have the same purpose as the front-end sales charge on sales of
      Class A shares: to compensate the Distributor for concessions and
      expenses it pays to dealers and financial institutions for selling
      shares. The Distributor may pay additional compensation from its own
      resources to securities dealers or financial institutions based upon
      the value of shares of the Fund owned by the dealer or financial
      institution for its own account or for its customers.

SPECIAL SALES CHARGE ARRANGEMENTS AND WAIVERS. Appendix B to the Statement of
Additional Information details the conditions for the waiver of sales charges
that apply in certain cases, and the special sales charge rates that apply to
purchases of shares of the Fund by certain groups, or under specified
retirement plan arrangements or in other special types of transactions. To
receive a waiver or special sales charge rate, you must advise the
Distributor when purchasing shares or the Transfer Agent when redeeming
shares that a special condition applies.

HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS A SHARES? Class A shares are sold at their offering
price, which is normally net asset value plus an initial sales charge.
However, in some cases, described below, purchases are not subject to an
initial sales charge, and the offering price will be the net asset value. In
other cases, reduced sales charges may be available, as described below or in
the Statement of Additional Information. Out of the amount you invest, the
Fund receives the net asset value to invest for your account.

      The sales charge varies depending on the amount of your purchase. A
portion of the sales charge may be retained by the Distributor or allocated
to your dealer as a concession. The Distributor reserves the right to reallow
the entire concession to dealers. The current sales charge rates and
concessions paid to dealers and brokers are as follows:

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Amount of Purchase           Front-End Sales  Front-End Sales
                                Charge As a      Charge As a    Concession As

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

Can You Reduce Class A Sales Charges? You may be eligible to buy Class A
      shares at reduced sales charge rates under the Fund's "Right of
      Accumulation," as described in "Reduced Sales Charges" in the Statement
      of Additional Information.

Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. There is no initial sales charge on
      purchases of Class A shares of any one or more of the Oppenheimer funds
      aggregating $1 million or more.  Qualified retirement plans (other than
      single 401(k) plans, SEP and SIMPLE plans) are not permitted to make
      initial purchases of Class A shares subject to a contingent deferred
      sales charge.  The Distributor pays dealers of record concessions in an
      amount equal to 1.0% of purchases of $1 million or more. The concession
      will not be paid on purchases of shares by exchange or that were
      previously subject to a front-end sales charge and dealer concession.

      If you redeem any of those shares within an 18-month "holding period"
      measured from the beginning of the calendar month of their purchase, a
      contingent deferred sales charge (called the "Class A contingent
      deferred sales charge") may be deducted from the redemption proceeds.
      That sales charge will be equal to 1.0% of the lesser of:
o     the aggregate net asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of
      redemption (excluding shares purchased by reinvestment of dividends or
      capital gain distributions) or
o     the original net asset value of the redeemed shares.

      The Class A contingent deferred sales charge will not exceed the
      aggregate amount of the concessions the Distributor paid to your dealer
      on all purchases of Class A shares of all Oppenheimer funds you made
      that were subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge.

Purchases by Certain Retirement Plans. There is no initial sales charge on
      purchases of Class A shares of any one or more Oppenheimer funds by
      retirement plans that have $10 million or more in plan assets and that
      have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor and by
      retirement plans which are part of a retirement plan product or
      platform offered by certain banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors,
      insurance companies or recordkeepers which have entered into a special
      agreement with the Distributor. The Distributor currently pays dealers
      of record concessions in an amount equal to 0.25% of the purchase price
      of Class A shares by those retirement plans from its own resources at
      the time of sale, subject to certain exceptions as described in the
      Statement of Additional Information. There is no contingent deferred
      sales charge upon the redemption of such shares.

HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS B SHARES? Class B shares are sold at net asset value
per share without an initial sales charge. Class B shares cannot be purchased
by exchange of Class B shares from another Oppenheimer fund. If Class B
shares are redeemed within six years from the beginning of the calendar month
of their purchase, a contingent deferred sales charge will be deducted from
the redemption proceeds. The Class B contingent deferred sales charge is paid
to compensate the Distributor for its expenses of providing
distribution-related services to the Fund in connection with the sale of
Class B shares.

      The amount of the contingent deferred sales charge will depend on the
number of years since you invested and the dollar amount being redeemed,
according to the following schedule for the Class B contingent deferred sales
charge holding period:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Years Since Beginning of Month in       Contingent Deferred Sales Charge on
Which Purchase Order was Accepted       Redemptions in That Year
                                        (As % of Amount Subject to Charge)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 - 1                                   5.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 - 2                                   4.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 - 3                                   3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 - 4                                   3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - 5                                   2.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 - 6                                   1.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More than 6                             None
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the table,  a "year" is a  12-month  period.  In  applying  the  contingent
deferred  sales charge,  all purchases are considered to have been made on the
first regular business day of the month in which the purchase was made.

Automatic Conversion of Class B Shares. Class B shares automatically convert
      to Class A shares 88 months after you purchase them. This conversion
      feature relieves Class B shareholders of the asset-based sales charge
      that applies to Class B shares under the Class B Distribution and
      Service Plan, described below. The conversion is based on the relative
      net asset value of the two classes, and no sales load or other charge
      is imposed. When any Class B shares that you hold convert, any other
      Class B shares that were acquired by reinvesting dividends and
      distributions on the converted shares will also convert to Class A
      shares. For further information on the conversion feature and its tax
      implications, see "Class B Conversion" in the Statement of Additional
      Information.

How Can you Buy Class C Shares? Class C shares are sold at net asset value
per share without an initial sales charge. However, if Class C shares are
redeemed within a holding period of 12 months from the beginning of the
calendar month of their purchase, a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%
will be deducted from the redemption proceeds. The Class C contingent
deferred sales charge is paid to compensate the Distributor for its expenses
of providing distribution-related services to the Fund in connection with the
sale of Class C shares.
HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS N SHARES? Class N shares are offered for sale to
retirement plans (including IRAs and 403(b) plans) that purchase $500,000 or
more of Class N shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds or to group
retirement plans (which do not include IRAs and 403(b) plans) that have
assets of $500,000 or more or 100 or more eligible participants. See
"Availability of Class N shares" in the Statement of Additional Information
for other circumstances where Class N shares are available for purchase.

      A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0% will be imposed upon the
redemption of Class N shares, if:
o     The group retirement plan 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
o     With respect to an IRA 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.

      Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on plan
participant accounts. The procedures for buying, selling, exchanging and
transferring the Fund's other classes of shares (other than the time those
orders must be received by the Distributor or Transfer Agent in Colorado) and
the special account features applicable to purchasers of those other classes
of shares described elsewhere in this prospectus do not apply to Class N
shares offered through a group retirement plan. Instructions for buying,
selling, exchanging or transferring Class N shares offered through a group
retirement plan must be submitted by the plan, not by plan participants for
whose benefit the shares are held.

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS.

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.
      The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers,
      brokers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly for providing
      personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
      hold Class A shares.

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 to pay the Distributor for its services and costs in
      distributing Class B, Class C and Class N shares and servicing
      accounts. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual
      asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and Class C shares and
      0.25% on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of
      0.25% per year under the Class B, Class C and Class N plans.

      The asset-based sales charge and service fees increase Class B and
      Class C expenses by 1.0% and increase Class N expenses by 0.50% of the
      net assets per year of the respective class. Because these fees are
      paid out of the Fund's assets on an on-going basis, over time these
      fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more
      than other types of sales charges.

      The Distributor uses the service fees to compensate dealers for
      providing personal services for accounts that hold Class B, Class C or
      Class N shares. The Distributor pays the 0.25% service fees to dealers
      in advance for the first year after the shares are sold by the dealer.
      After the shares have been held for a year, the Distributor pays the
      service fees to dealers on a quarterly basis. The Distributor retains
      the service fees for accounts for which it renders the required
      personal services.

      The Distributor currently pays a sales concession of 3.75% of the
      purchase price of Class B shares to dealers from its own resources at
      the time of sale. Including the advance of the service fee, the total
      amount paid by the Distributor to the dealer at the time of sale of
      Class B shares is therefore 4.00% of the purchase price. The
      Distributor retains the Class B asset-based sales charge. See the
      Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

      The Distributor currently pays a sales concession of 0.75% of the
      purchase price of Class C shares to dealers from its own resources at
      the time of sale. Including the advance of the service fee, the total
      amount paid by the Distributor to the dealer at the time of sale of
      Class C shares is therefore 1.0% of the purchase price. The Distributor
      pays the asset-based sales charge as an ongoing concession to the
      dealer on Class C shares that have been outstanding for a year or more.
      See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

      The Distributor currently pays a sales concession of 0.75% of the
      purchase price of Class N shares to dealers from its own resources at
      the time of sale. Including the advance of the service fee, the total
      amount paid by the Distributor to the dealer at the time of sale of
      Class N shares is therefore 1.0% of the purchase price. The Distributor
      retains the asset-based sales charge on Class N shares. See the
      Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

      and distributions directly to your bank account. Please call the
      Transfer Agent for more information.

      You may purchase shares by telephone during the Offering Period only
after your account has been established. To purchase shares in amounts up to
$250,000 through a telephone representative, call the Distributor at
1.800.225.5677. The purchase payment will be debited from your bank account.

      AccountLink privileges should be requested on your Application or your
dealer's settlement instructions if you buy your shares through a dealer.
After your account is established, you can request AccountLink privileges by
sending signature-guaranteed instructions and proper documentation to the
Transfer Agent. AccountLink privileges will apply to each shareholder listed
in the registration on your account as well as to your dealer representative
of record unless and until the Transfer Agent receives written instructions
terminating or changing those privileges. After you establish AccountLink for
your account, any change of bank account information must be made by
signature-guaranteed instructions to the Transfer Agent signed by all
shareholders who own the account.

PHONELINK. PhoneLink is the OppenheimerFunds automated telephone system that
enables shareholders to perform a number of account transactions
automatically using a touch-tone phone. PhoneLink may be used on
already-established Fund accounts after you obtain a Personal Identification
Number (PIN), by calling the PhoneLink number, 1.800.225.5677.

Purchasing Shares. You may purchase shares during the Offering Period in
      amounts up to $100,000 by phone, by calling 1.800.225.5677. You must
      have established AccountLink privileges to link your bank account with
      the Fund to pay for these purchases.


Exchanging Shares. With the OppenheimerFunds Exchange Privilege, described
      below, you can exchange shares automatically by phone from your Fund
      account to another OppenheimerFunds account you have already
      established by calling the special PhoneLink number.

Selling Shares. You can redeem shares by telephone automatically by calling
      the PhoneLink number and the Fund will send the proceeds directly to
      your AccountLink bank account. Please refer to "How to Sell Shares,"
      below for details.

CAN YOU SUBMIT TRANSACTION REQUESTS BY FAX? You may send requests for certain
types of account transactions to the Transfer Agent by fax (telecopier).
Please call 1.800.225.5677 for information about which transactions may be
handled this way. Transaction requests submitted by fax are subject to the
same rules and restrictions as written and telephone requests described in
this Prospectus.

OPPENHEIMERFUNDS INTERNET WEBSITE. You can obtain information about the Fund,
as well as your account balance, on the OppenheimerFunds Internet website, at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com. Additionally, shareholders listed in the account
registration (and the dealer of record) may request certain account
transactions through a special section of that website. To perform account
transactions or obtain account information online, you must first obtain a
user I.D. and password on that website. If you do not want to have Internet
account transaction capability for your account, please call the Transfer
Agent at 1.800.225.5677. At times, the website may be inaccessible or its
transaction features may be unavailable.

REINVESTMENT PRIVILEGE. If you redeem some or all of your Class A or Class B
shares of the Fund during the Offering Period, you have until the end of the
Offering Period to reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in Class A
shares of the Fund without paying another sales charge. If you redeem some or
all of your Class A or Class B shares of the Fund at any time, you have up to
six months to reinvest all or a part of the redemption proceeds in Class A
shares of other Oppenheimer funds without paying a sales charge. If you
redeem some or all of your Class A or Class B shares of the Fund during the
Post-Warranty Period, you have up to six months to reinvest all or a part of
the redemption proceeds in Class A shares of this Fund or other Oppenheimer
funds without paying a sales charge. This privilege applies only to Class A
shares that you purchased subject to an initial sales charge and to Class A
or Class B shares on which you paid a contingent deferred sales charge when
you redeemed them. This privilege does not apply to Class C or Class N
shares. You must be sure to ask the Distributor for this privilege when you
send your payment.

RETIREMENT PLANS. You may buy shares of the Fund during the Offering Period
for your retirement plan account. If you will be required by law to take a
distribution from your retirement plan in the next seven years which in turn
would require you to redeem shares of the Fund, this Fund may not be an
appropriate investment under your retirement plan because the Warranty Amount
is reduced by such redemptions. If you participate in a plan sponsored by
your employer, the plan trustee or administrator must buy the shares for your
plan account. The Distributor also offers a number of different retirement
plans that individuals and employers can use:

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These include regular IRAs, Roth IRAs,
      SIMPLE IRAs and rollover IRAs.
SEP-IRAs. These are Simplified Employee Pension Plan IRAs for small business
      owners or self-employed individuals.
403(b)(7) Custodial Plans. These are tax-deferred plans for employees of
      eligible tax-exempt organizations, such as schools, hospitals and
      charitable organizations.
Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans. These plans are designed for businesses and
      self-employed individuals.
      Please call the Distributor for OppenheimerFunds retirement plan
documents, which include applications and important plan information.

How to Sell Shares

You can sell (redeem) some or all of your shares on any regular business day.
Prior to the Maturity Date and during the Post-Warranty Period, shares are
redeemed at their net asset value (which may be less than your Warranty
Amount) minus any applicable contingent deferred sales charge. For
redemptions prior to the Maturity Date and during the Post-Warranty Period,
the net asset value used in determining your share price is the next one
calculated after your redemption order is received in proper form (which
means that it must comply with the procedures described below) and is
accepted by the Transfer Agent. Redemption of Fund shares prior to the
Maturity Date will reduce your Warranty Amount. The Fund lets you sell your
shares by writing a letter, or by telephone. If you have questions about any
of these procedures, and especially if you are redeeming shares in a special
situation, such as due to the death of the owner or from a retirement plan
account, please call the Transfer Agent first, at 1.800.225.5677, for
assistance. Redemption requests received after 4:00p.m. (or such earlier time
as may be required by your financial intermediary) will be priced at the net
asset value at the close of business on the next business day.

      For redemptions made on the Maturity Date (____________, 2010), the
value used in determining your share price will be the greater of (i) the
then-current net asset value or (ii) your Warranty Amount per share. See the
example starting on page _____ for help in understanding how this amount is
calculated. Redemptions made prior to the Maturity Date or during the
Post-Warranty Period will not be protected by the Financial Warranty and the
value of your shares will be the then-current net asset value of the Fund,
which may be less than your Warranty Amount.

Certain Requests Require a Signature Guarantee. To protect you and the Fund
      from fraud, the following redemption requests must be in writing and
      must include a signature guarantee (although there may be other
      situations that also require a signature guarantee):
   o  You wish to redeem more than $100,000 and receive a check
   o  The redemption check is not payable to all shareholders listed on the
      account statement
   o  The redemption check is not sent to the address of record on your
      account statement
   o  Shares are being transferred to a Fund account with a different owner
      or name
   o  Shares are being redeemed by someone (such as an Executor) other than
      the owners

Where Can You Have Your Signature Guaranteed? The Transfer Agent will accept
      a guarantee of your signature by a number of financial institutions,
      including:
o     a U.S. bank, trust company, credit union or savings association,
o     a foreign bank that has a U.S. correspondent bank,
o     a U.S. registered dealer or broker in securities, municipal securities
      or government securities, or
o     a U.S. national securities exchange, a registered securities
      association or a clearing agency.
      If you are signing on behalf of a corporation, partnership or other
      business or as a fiduciary, you must also include your title in the
      signature.

Retirement Plan Accounts. There are special procedures to sell shares in an
      OppenheimerFunds retirement plan account. Call the Transfer Agent for a
      distribution request form. Special income tax withholding requirements
      apply to distributions from retirement plans. You must submit a
      withholding form with your redemption request to avoid delay in getting
      your money and if you do not want tax withheld. If your employer holds
      your retirement plan account for you in the name of the plan, you must
      ask the plan trustee or administrator to request the sale of the Fund
      shares in your plan account.

Sending Redemption Proceeds by Wire. While the Fund normally sends your money
      by check, you can arrange to have the proceeds of shares you sell sent
      by Federal Funds wire to a bank account you designate. It must be a
      commercial bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve wire system.
      The minimum redemption you can have sent by wire is $2,500. There is a
      $10 fee for each request. To find out how to set up this feature on
      your account or to arrange a wire, call the Transfer Agent at
      1.800.225.5677.

HOW DO you SELL SHARES BY MAIL? Write a letter of instruction that includes:
   o  Your name
   o  The Fund's name
   o  Your Fund account number (from your account statement)
   o  The dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed
   o  Any special payment instructions
   o  Any share certificates for the shares you are selling
   o  The signatures of all registered owners exactly as the account is
      registered, and
   o  Any special documents requested by the Transfer Agent to assure proper
      authorization of the person asking to sell the shares.

Use the following address for            Send courier or express mail
Requests by mail:                        requests to:
OppenheimerFunds Services                OppenheimerFunds Services
P.O. Box 5270                            10200 E. Girard Avenue, Building D
Denver, Colorado 80217                   Denver, Colorado 80231

HOW DO you SELL SHARES BY TELEPHONE? You and your dealer representative of
record may also sell your shares by telephone. To receive the redemption
price calculated on a particular regular business day, your call must be
received by the Transfer Agent by the close of The New York Stock Exchange
that day, which is normally 4:00 P.M., but may be earlier on some days. You
may not redeem shares held in an OppenheimerFunds retirement plan account by
telephone.
   o  To redeem shares through a service representative or automatically on
      PhoneLink, call 1.800.225.5677.
      Whichever method you use, you may have a check sent to the address on
the account statement, or, if you have linked your Fund account to your bank
account on AccountLink, you may have the proceeds sent to that bank account.

Are There Limits on Amounts Redeemed by Telephone?
Telephone Redemptions Paid by Check. Up to $100,000 may be redeemed by
      telephone in any seven-day period. The check must be payable to all
      owners of record of the shares and must be sent to the address on the
      account statement. This service is not available within 30 days of
      changing the address on an account.

Telephone Redemptions Through AccountLink or by Wire. There are no dollar
      limits on telephone redemption proceeds sent to a bank account
      designated when you establish AccountLink. Normally the ACH transfer to
      your bank is initiated on the business day after the redemption. You do
      not receive dividends on the proceeds of the shares you redeemed while
      they are waiting to be transferred.

      If you have requested Federal Funds wire privileges for your account,
      the wire of the redemption proceeds will normally be transmitted on the
      next bank business day after the shares are redeemed. There is a
      possibility that the wire may be delayed up to seven days to enable the
      Fund to sell securities to pay the redemption proceeds. No dividends
      are accrued or paid on the proceeds of shares that have been redeemed
      and are awaiting transmittal by wire.

CAN  YOU  SELL  SHARES  THROUGH  your  DEALER?   The   Distributor   has  made
arrangements  to repurchase  Fund shares from dealers and brokers on behalf of
their  customers.  Brokers or dealers  may  charge for that  service.  If your
shares are held in the name of your dealer,  you must redeem them through your
dealer.

HOW CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES AFFECT REDEMPTIONS. If you purchase
shares subject to a Class A, Class B, Class C or Class N contingent deferred
sales charge and redeem any of those shares during the applicable holding
period for the class of shares, the contingent deferred sales charge will be
deducted from the redemption proceeds (unless you are eligible for a waiver
of that sales charge based on the categories listed in Appendix B to the
Statement of Additional Information and you advise the Transfer Agent of your
eligibility for the waiver when you place your redemption request.)

      A  contingent  deferred  sales charge will be based on the lesser of the
net  asset  value of the  redeemed  shares  at the time of  redemption  or the
original net asset value.  A contingent  deferred  sales charge is not imposed
on:
o     the amount of your  account  value  represented  by an  increase  in net
      asset value over the initial purchase price,
o     shares  purchased by the  reinvestment  of  dividends  or capital  gains
      distributions, or
o     shares redeemed in the special circumstances  described in Appendix B to
      the Statement of Additional Information.

      To determine whether a contingent deferred sales charge applies to a
redemption, the Fund redeems shares in the following order:
   1. shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
      distributions,
   2. shares held for the holding period that applies to the class, and
   3. shares held the longest during the holding period.

      Contingent deferred sales charges are not charged when you exchange
shares of the Fund for shares of other Oppenheimer funds. However, if you
exchange them within the applicable contingent deferred sales charge holding
period, the holding period will carry over to the fund whose shares you
acquire. Similarly, if during the Offering Period you acquire Class A, Class
C or Class N shares of this Fund by exchanging shares of another Oppenheimer
fund that are still subject to a contingent deferred sales charge holding
period, that holding period will carry over to this Fund. During the
Post-Warranty Period, if you acquire Class A, Class B, Class C or Class N
shares of this Fund by exchanging the same class of shares of another
Oppenheimer fund that are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
holding period, that holding period will carry over to this Fund.

How to Exchange Shares

The Fund does not offer the ability to exchange into the Fund during the
Warranty Period. Because the Fund is not continuously offering its shares
during the Warranty Period, if you exchange your shares of the Fund for
shares of another fund you will not be able to effect an exchange back into
the Fund during the Warranty Period. In addition, your exchange will be
considered a redemption and will reduce your Warranty Amount.

      If you make an exchange prior to the Maturity Date, you may receive an
amount less than your original investment in the Fund.

      Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of certain Oppenheimer
funds at net asset value per share at the time of exchange, without sales
charge. Class A, C and N shares of the Fund can be purchased during the
Offering Period by exchange of the same class of shares of other Oppenheimer
funds on the same basis. You cannot purchase Class B shares of the Fund
during the Offering Period by exchange of shares of other Oppenheimer funds.
To exchange shares, you must meet several conditions:
   o  Shares of the fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in
      your state of residence.
   o  The prospectuses of both funds must offer the exchange privilege.
   o  You must hold the shares you buy when you establish your account for at
      least seven days before you can exchange them. After the account is
      open seven days, you can exchange shares every regular business day.
   o  You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the fund whose
      shares you purchase by exchange.
   o  Before exchanging into a fund, you must obtain and read its prospectus.
      Shares of a particular class of the Fund may be exchanged only for
shares of the same class in the other Oppenheimer funds. For example, you can
exchange Class A shares of this Fund only for Class A shares of another fund.
In some cases, sales charges may be imposed on exchange transactions. For tax
purposes, exchanges of shares involve a sale of the shares of the fund you
own and a purchase of the shares of the other fund, which may result in a
capital gain or loss. Please refer to "How to Exchange Shares" in the
Statement of Additional Information for more details.

      You can find a list of Oppenheimer funds currently available for
exchanges in the Statement of Additional Information or obtain one by calling
a service representative at 1.800.225.5677. That list can change from time to
time.

HOW DO you SUBMIT EXCHANGE REQUESTS? Exchanges may be requested in writing or
by telephone:

Written Exchange Requests. Submit an OppenheimerFunds Exchange Request form,
      signed by all owners of the account. Send it to the Transfer Agent at
      the address on the back cover. Exchanges of shares held under
      certificates cannot be processed unless the Transfer Agent receives the
      certificates with the request.
Telephone Exchange Requests. Telephone exchange requests may be made either
      by calling a service representative or by using PhoneLink for automated
      exchanges by calling 1.800.225.5677. Telephone exchanges may be made
      only between accounts that are registered with the same name(s) and
      address. Shares held under certificates may not be exchanged by
      telephone.

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON EXCHANGES? There are certain exchange policies you
should be aware of:
o     Shares are redeemed from one fund and purchased from the other fund in
      the exchange transaction on the same regular business day on which the
      Transfer Agent receives an exchange request that conforms to the
      policies described above. It must be received by the close of The New
      York Stock Exchange that day, which is normally 4:00 P.M. but may be
      earlier on some days.
   o  The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
      time. The Fund may refuse any exchange order and is currently not
      obligated to provide notice before rejecting an exchange order.
   o  If the Transfer Agent cannot exchange all the shares you request
      because of a restriction cited above, only the shares eligible for
      exchange will be exchanged.

Shareholder Account Rules and Policies

More information about the Fund's policies and procedures for buying, selling
and exchanging shares is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.
A $12 annual fee is assessed on any account valued at less than $500. The fee
      is automatically deducted from the accounts annually on or about the
      second to last business day of September. See the Statement of
      Additional Information or visit the OppenheimerFunds website, to learn
      how you can avoid this fee and for circumstances when this fee will not
      be assessed.
Telephone transaction privileges for purchases, redemptions or exchanges may
      be modified, suspended or terminated by the Fund at any time. The Fund
      will provide you notice whenever it is required to do so by applicable
      law. If an account has more than one owner, the Fund and the Transfer
      Agent may rely on the instructions of any one owner. Telephone
      privileges apply to each owner of the account and the dealer
      representative of record for the account unless the Transfer Agent
      receives cancellation instructions from an owner of the account.
The Transfer Agent will record any telephone calls to verify data concerning
      transactions and has adopted other procedures to confirm that telephone
      instructions are genuine, by requiring callers to provide tax
      identification numbers and other account data or by using PINs, and by
      confirming such transactions in writing. The Transfer Agent and the
      Fund will not be liable for losses or expenses arising out of telephone
      instructions reasonably believed to be genuine.
Redemption or transfer requests will not be honored until the Transfer Agent
      receives all required documents in proper form. From time to time, the
      Transfer Agent in its discretion may waive certain of the requirements
      for redemptions stated in this Prospectus.
Dealers that perform account transactions for their clients by participating
      in NETWORKING through the National Securities Clearing Corporation are
      responsible for obtaining their clients' permission to perform those
      transactions, and are responsible to their clients who are shareholders
      of the Fund if the dealer performs any transaction erroneously or
      improperly.
The redemption price for shares will vary from day to day because the value
      of the securities in the Fund's portfolio fluctuates. The redemption
      price, which is the net asset value per share, will normally differ for
      each class of shares. If you redeem your shares before or after the
      Maturity Date, the redemption value of your shares may be more or less
      than their original cost. The value of your shares on the Maturity Date
      will equal the greater of the Warranty Amount or the Fund's
      then-current net asset value.
Payment for redeemed shares ordinarily is made in cash. It is forwarded by
      check, or through AccountLink or by Federal Funds wire (as elected by
      the shareholder) within seven days after the Transfer Agent receives
      redemption instructions in proper form. However, under unusual
      circumstances determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
      payment may be delayed or suspended. For accounts registered in the
      name of a broker-dealer, payment will normally be forwarded within
      three business days after redemption.
The Transfer Agent may delay processing any type of redemption payment as
      described under "How to Sell Shares" for recently purchased shares, but
      only until the purchase payment has cleared. That delay may be as much
      as 10 days from the date the shares were purchased. That delay may be
      avoided if you purchase shares by Federal Funds wire or certified
      check, or arrange with your bank to provide telephone or written
      assurance to the Transfer Agent that your purchase payment has cleared.
Involuntary redemptions of small accounts may be made by the Fund if the
      account value has fallen below $500 for reasons other than the fact
      that the market value of shares has dropped. In some cases, involuntary
      redemptions may be made to repay the Distributor for losses from the
      cancellation of share purchase orders.
Shares may be "redeemed in kind" under unusual circumstances (such as a lack
      of liquidity in the Fund's portfolio to meet redemptions). This means
      that the redemption proceeds will be paid with liquid securities from
      the Fund's portfolio.  If redemptions are paid in-kind, shareholders
      will incur transaction costs when, and will bear market risk until such
      time as, securities received in-kind are converted into cash. However,
      the Fund has made an election which requires it to pay a certain
      portion of redemption proceeds in cash.  See the section entitled
      "Payments in-Kind" in the Statement of Additional Information for more
      information.
"Backup withholding" of federal income tax may be applied against taxable
      dividends, distributions and redemption proceeds (including exchanges)
      if you fail to furnish the Fund your correct, certified Social Security
      or Employer Identification Number when you sign your application, or if
      you under-report your income to the Internal Revenue Service.
To avoid sending duplicate copies of materials to households, the Fund will
      mail only one copy of each prospectus, annual and semi-annual report
      and annual notice of the Fund's privacy policy to shareholders having
      the same last name and address on the Fund's records. The consolidation
      of these mailings, called householding, benefits the Fund through
      reduced mailing expense.

      If you want to receive multiple copies of these materials, you may call
      the Transfer Agent at 1.800.225.5677. You may also notify the Transfer
      Agent in writing. Individual copies of prospectuses, reports and
      privacy notices will be sent to you commencing within 30 days after the
      Transfer Agent receives your request to stop householding.

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends. The Fund intends to declare dividends separately for each class of
shares from net investment income on an annual basis and to pay them to
shareholders in December on a date selected by the Board of Trustees.
Dividends and distributions paid to Class A shares will generally be higher
than dividends for Class B, Class C and Class N shares, which normally have
higher expenses than Class A. The Fund has no fixed dividend rate and cannot
guarantee that it will pay any dividends or distributions.

Capital Gains. The Fund may realize capital gains on the sale of portfolio
securities. If it does, it may make distributions out of any net short-term
or long-term capital gains in December of each year. The Fund may make
supplemental distributions of dividends and capital gains following the end
of its fiscal year. There can be no assurance that the Fund will pay any
capital gains distributions in a particular year.

WHAT CHOICES TO YOU HAVE FOR RECEIVING DISTRIBUTIONS?

Reinvest All Distributions in the Fund. You can elect to reinvest all
      dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the
      Fund.
Reinvest Dividends or Capital Gains. You can elect to reinvest some
      distributions (dividends, short-term capital gains or long-term capital
      gains distributions) in the Fund while receiving the other types of
      distributions by check or having them sent to your bank account through
      AccountLink.
Receive All Distributions in Cash. You can elect to receive a check for all
      dividends and capital gains distributions or have them sent to your
      bank through Account Link.
Reinvest Your Distributions in Another OppenheimerFunds Account. You can
      reinvest all distributions in the same class of shares of another
      OppenheimerFunds account you have established.

      Unless otherwise specified, all dividends and distributions will be
automatically reinvested in additional full and fractional shares of the
Fund. If you do not reinvest all of your dividends and capital gains
distributions in the Fund during the Warranty Period, your Warranty Amount
will be reduced.

TAXES. If your shares are not held in a tax-deferred retirement account, you
should be aware of the following tax implications of investing in the Fund.
Distributions are subject to federal income tax and may be subject to state
or local taxes. Dividends paid from short-term capital gains and net
investment income are taxable as ordinary income. Long-term capital gains are
taxable as long-term capital gains when distributed to shareholders. It does
not matter how long you have held your shares. Whether you reinvest your
distributions in additional shares or take them in cash, the tax treatment is
the same. When you sell or exchange Fund shares you will generally recognize
a capital gain or capital loss in an amount equal to the difference between
the net amount of sale proceeds (or, in the case of an exchange, the fair
market value of the shares) that you receive and your tax basis for the
shares that you sell or exchange. In January of each year the Fund will mail
to you information about your dividends, distributions and any shares you
sold in the previous calendar year.

      The asset allocation process may increase turnover of the Fund's
assets, which may result in the realization of additional gains by the Fund.
It may also result in a larger portion of any net gains being treated as
short-term capital gains, which would be taxed as ordinary income when
distributed to shareholders. As noted above, distributions of any gains and
income will be taxable to shareholders even if those distributions are
reinvested in Fund shares. Shareholders may receive taxable distributions of
income from investments included in the debt portfolio even in situations
where the Fund has capital losses from investments in the equity portfolio.

      The determination of the tax character of any payment of the Warranty
Amount under the Warranty Agreement to the Fund as capital gain or ordinary
income is not free from doubt under federal tax law. The Fund intends to take
the position that its right to receive the payment under the Warranty
Agreement is itself a capital asset, and that the payment in termination of
such right gives rise to capital gain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to
challenge such position, at least the portion of such payment attributable to
capital losses previously realized by the Fund, and perhaps attributable to
the Fund's unrealized capital losses, should be treated as capital gain. Any
such gain would be offset by otherwise allowable capital losses, if any. To
the extent that the Fund distributes such payment to its shareholders, a
portion of such payment may constitute ordinary income to the shareholders,
provided however, that if the trustees of the Fund should elect to terminate
the Fund at the end of the Warranty Period, it is anticipated that the
shareholders receiving such payment in exchange for their shares would be
treated as receiving a return of capital to the extent of their basis in the
shares of the Fund, and to the extent such payment exceeds basis, as having
capital gain.

      Every year the Fund will send you and the IRS a statement showing the
amount of any taxable distribution you received in the previous year. Any
long-term capital gains will be separately identified in the tax information
the Fund sends you after the end of the calendar year.

Remember, There May be Taxes on Transactions. Because the Fund's share prices
      fluctuate, you may have a capital gain or loss when you sell or
      exchange your shares. A capital gain or loss is the difference between
      the price you paid for the shares and the price you received when you
      sold them. Any capital gain is subject to capital gains tax.
Returns of Capital Can Occur. In certain cases, distributions made by the
      Fund may be considered a non-taxable return of capital to shareholders.
      If that occurs, it will be identified in notices to shareholders.

      The Fund will invest in zero coupon U.S.  Treasury  bonds and other debt
securities  that are issued at a discount  or provide for  deferred  interest.
Even  though  the  Fund  receives  no  actual   interest   payments  on  these
securities,  the Fund will be deemed to receive income equal,  generally, to a
portion  of the excess of the face value of the  securities  over their  issue
price  ("original  issue  discount")  each year that the  securities are held.
Since the original issue discount  income earned by the Fund in a taxable year
may not be  represented  by cash  income,  the  Fund may  have to  dispose  of
securities,  which it might otherwise have continued to hold, to generate cash
in order to satisfy its  distribution  requirements  if  shareholders  request
cash distributions.

      This information is only a summary of certain federal income tax
information about your investment. You should consult with your tax advisor
about the effect of an investment in the Fund on your particular tax
situation.

The Underlying Fund's Past Performance

The following information about the Underlying Fund is provided because the
Fund may invest a substantial amount of its assets in Class Y shares of the
Underlying Fund. The following information is for the Underlying Fund only
and is not intended to predict the performance of the Fund. The performance
of the Fund will differ from the performance of the Underlying Fund. The
magnitude of that difference will depend on the amount of the Fund's assets
that are invested in the Underlying Fund.

      The bar chart and table below show one measure of the risks of
investing in the Underlying Fund, by showing the Underlying Fund's
performance (for its Class Y shares) since inception and by showing how the
average annual total returns of the Underlying Fund's Class Y shares, both
before and after taxes, compare to those of a broad-based market index. The
after-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual
federal marginal income tax rates in effect during the periods shown, and do
not reflect the impact of state or local taxes. In certain cases, the figure
representing "Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Underlying Fund
Shares" may be higher than the other return figures for the same period. A
higher after-tax return results when a capital loss occurs upon redemption
and translates into an assumed tax deduction that benefits the shareholder.
The after-tax returns are calculated based on certain assumptions mandated by
regulation. The Underlying Fund's past investment performance both before and
after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Underlying Fund or
the Fund will perform in the future.

Annual Total Returns (Class Y) (as of 12/31 each year)

[See appendix to prospectus for data in bar chart showing annual total
returns]

Sales charges and taxes are not included in the calculations of return in
this bar chart, and if those charges and taxes were included, the returns may
be less than those shown. For the period from 1/1/03 through 6/30/03, the
cumulative return (not annualized) before taxes for Class Y shares was
______%. During the period shown in the bar chart, the highest return (not
annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was 22.05% (4thQTR `98) and
the lowest return (not annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was
-16.49% (3rdQTR `02).

There is no sales charge on Class Y shares. The Underlying Fund's returns
measure the performance of a hypothetical account and assume that all
dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in additional
shares. The performance of the Underlying Fund's Class Y shares is compared
to the S&P 500 Index, an unmanaged index of equity securities. Index
performance reflects the reinvestment of income but does not consider the
effects of transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. The Underlying Fund
may have investments that vary from those in the index.

Financial Highlights of the Underlying Fund

Because the Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II may invest a
significant amount of its assets in the Underlying Fund the following
Financial Highlights Table is presented to help you understand the Underlying
Fund's Class Y share financial performance for the past five fiscal years.
The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have
earned (or lost) on an investment in the Underlying Fund (assuming
reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). This information has been
audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Fund's and the Underlying Fund's
independent auditors, whose report, along with the Underlying Fund's
financial statements is incorporated by reference in the Fund's Statement of
Additional Information, which is available on request.

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. During the Offering Period
(expected to run from _________, 2003 through _________, 2003, unless
extended), the Fund will invest its assets primarily in money market
instruments and short-term debt securities. The Fund's investment objective
during the Offering Period is preservation of capital. Following the Offering
Period, the Fund will enter its "Warranty Period." The "Warranty Period" will
run from the third business day following the end of the Offering Period
(expected to be ____________, 2003) through and including a date seven years
later (expected to be _______________ 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 _________, 2003 (the "Warranty Agreement"), among the Fund,
the Manager and Main Place Funding LLC. 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.

      Main Place Funding LLC ("Main Place") or the "Warranty Provider") is an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation. Main Place's
principal business is to manage closed-end residential mortgage loans and
mortgage-backed securities. Main Place Funding LLC may hedge its risks under
the Warranty Agreement with one or more counterparties, including with an
affiliate of Main Place Funding LLC (which may include the calculation agent
under the Warranty Agreement). Main Place Funding LLC is not required to
hedge its risk under the Warranty Agreement and may choose not to do so. Bank
of America Corporation is organized as a Delaware corporation and operates as
a bank holding company and a financial holding company. Bank of America
Corporation has unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of the Warranty
Provider under the Warranty Agreement.

The Asset Allocation Process. In pursuing the Fund's investment objective
during the Warranty Period, the Manager allocates the Fund's assets between
the equity and fixed income components of the portfolio. The Fund will not
employ an asset allocation model during either the Offering Period or 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 Main Place Funding LLC.
Main Place Funding LLC 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. Main Place
Funding LLC has no right to require any modification to the structure of the
asset allocation formula during the Offering Period or the Warranty Period,
but has discretion in certain limited circumstances to adjust certain
variables in the formula. Because the model impacts Main Place Funding LLC's
financial exposure, Main Place Funding LLC has a right to approve any changes
that the Fund wishes to make to the model during the Offering Period or the
Warranty Period. Main Place Funding LLC has informational rights regarding
the model's allocation and the Fund's portfolio during the Warranty Period,
but these rights are intended to enable Main Place Funding LLC 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.

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. 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 will invest 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.

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 II. That Trust is an open-end, management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust on ___________, 2003. The Fund is
a diversified mutual fund and commenced operations on __________, 2003.

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.

Meetings of Shareholders. Although the Fund is not required by Massachusetts
law to hold annual meetings, it may hold shareholder meetings from time to
time on important matters. The shareholders of the Fund's parent trust have
the right to call a meeting to remove a Trustee or to take certain other
action described in the Declaration of Trust or under Massachusetts 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. 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.

      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 Fund 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 Fund's activities, review its performance,
and review the actions of the Manager. Although the Trust will not normally
hold annual meetings of its shareholders, it may hold shareholder meetings
from time to time on important matters, and shareholders have certain rights
to call a meeting to remove a Trustee or to take other action as described in
the Trust's Declaration of Trust.

      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
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
audits and the audit fees charged; (ii) reviewing reports from the Trust's
independent auditors regarding the Fund's internal accounting procedures and
controls; and (iii) establishing a separate line of communication between the
Trust's independent auditors and its independent Trustees.

      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, Sam Freedman, Beverly Hamilton and F. William Marshall, Jr.
Among other functions, the Review Committee reviews reports and makes
recommendations to the Board concerning the fees paid to the Trust's transfer
agent and the services provided to each Fund by the transfer agent. The
Review Committee also reviews each Fund's investment performance and policies
and procedures adopted by the Trust to comply with Investment Company Act and
other applicable law.

Trustees and Officers of the Fund. Except for Mr. Murphy, each of the
Trustees is an independent trustee of the Fund ("Independent Trustee"). 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. As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, 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 Trust's Trustees and officers and their positions held with the
Trust 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 Mr. Malone, who are not
Trustees of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund and Mr. Murphy is not a
Trustee or Managing General Partner of any of the Centennial funds) (referred
to as "Board II Funds"):
Oppenheimer Cash Reserves                       Oppenheimer Select Managers
Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund                Oppenheimer Senior Floating
Rate Fund
Oppenheimer Capital Income Fund                 Oppenheimer Strategic Income
Fund
Oppenheimer High Yield Fund                     Oppenheimer Total Return
Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer International Bond Fund             Oppenheimer Variable Account

Oppenheimer Municipal Fund                      Centennial New York Tax
Exempt Trust
Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund                     Centennial Tax Exempt Trust

      Present or former  officers,  directors,  trustees  and  employees  (and
their immediate  family members) of the Trust, the Manager and its affiliates,
and retirement plans  established by them for their employees are permitted to
purchase  Class A shares of the Funds 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, Masterson, Molleur, Vottiero, Winston,
Wixted and Zack, and Mses. Bechtolt, Feld and Ives who are officers of the
Trust, respectively hold the same offices with one or more of the other Board
II Funds as with the Trust. Each Independent Trustee, and his 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.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      |X| Remuneration of Trustees. The officers of the Fund and one of the
Trustees of the Fund are affiliated with the Manager and therefore receive no
salary or fee from the Fund. The Trustees of the Fund who are not affiliated
with the Manager will receive a salary or fee from the Fund. As of the date
of the Statement of Additional Information, the Fund has not paid any
compensation to the Trustees because it is a new fund.

      |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 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 the date of this Statement of Additional
Information, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. was the only shareholder of record of any
class of shares of the Fund.

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 Securities and Exchange Commission 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:

Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

      |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 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 considered by the Trustees, all of whom, except Mr.
Murphy, are "Independent Trustees" within the meaning of the 1940 Act,
meeting with experienced Counsel to the Independent Trustees who assisted the
Board in its deliberations. The Board had determined that the Independent
Trustees' Counsel, Mayer, Brown, Rowe & Maw, is 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.

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. 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.

      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. 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.

      All payments under the Class B, Class C and Class N plans are subject
to the limitations imposed by the Conduct Rules of the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. on payments of asset-based sales charges and
service fees.

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 Securities and Exchange Commission. 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:

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
-----
1/n         Distributions 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

How to Buy Shares

Additional information is presented below about the methods that can be used
to buy shares of the Fund during the Offering Period, which ends ___________,
2003, unless extended. Appendix B contains more information about the special
sales charge arrangements offered by the Fund, and the circumstances in which
sales charges may be reduced or waived for certain classes of investors.

AccountLink. When shares are purchased through AccountLink, each purchase
must be at least $50 and shareholders must invest at least $500 before an
                     ---
Asset Builder Plan (described below) can be established on a new account.
Shares will be purchased on the regular business day the Distributor is
instructed to initiate the Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfer to buy
the shares. Dividends will begin to accrue on shares purchased with the
proceeds of ACH transfers on the business day the Fund receives Federal Funds
for the purchase through the ACH system before the close of The New York
Stock Exchange ("the Exchange"). The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M.,
but may close earlier on certain days. If Federal Funds are received on a
business day after the close of the Exchange, the shares will be purchased
and dividends will begin to accrue on the next regular business day. The
proceeds of ACH transfers are normally received by the Fund three days after
the transfers are initiated. If the proceeds of the ACH transfer are not
received on a timely basis, the Distributor reserves the right to cancel the
purchase order. The Distributor and the Fund are not responsible for any
delays in purchasing shares resulting from delays in ACH transmissions.

Reduced Sales Charges. As discussed in the Prospectus, a reduced sales charge
rate may be obtained for Class A shares purchased during the Offering Period
under a Right of Accumulation because of the economies of sales efforts and
reduction in expenses realized by the Distributor, dealers and brokers making
such sales. No sales charge is imposed in certain other circumstances
described in Appendix B to this Statement of Additional Information because
the Distributor or dealer or broker incurs little or no selling expenses.

      |_| Right of Accumulation. To qualify for the lower sales charge rates
that apply to larger purchases of Class A shares, you and your spouse can add
together:
o     Class A and Class B shares you purchase for your individual accounts
          (including IRAs and 403(b) plans), or for your joint accounts, or
          for trust or custodial accounts on behalf of your children who are
          minors, and
o     Current purchases of Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other
          Oppenheimer funds to reduce the sales charge rate that applies to
          current purchases of Class A shares, and
o     Class A and Class B shares of Oppenheimer funds you previously
          purchased subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales charge
          to reduce the sales charge rate for current purchases of Class A
          shares, provided that you still hold your investment in one of the
          Oppenheimer funds.
      A fiduciary can count all shares purchased for a trust, estate or other
fiduciary account (including one or more employee benefit plans of the same
employer) that has multiple accounts. The Distributor will add the value, at
current offering price, of the shares you previously purchased and currently
own to the value of current purchases to determine the sales charge rate that
applies. The reduced sales charge will apply only to current purchases. You
must request it when you buy shares.

1 - "OSM" stands for Oppenheimer Select Managers
      There is an initial sales charge on the purchase of Class A shares of
each of the Oppenheimer funds described above except the money market funds
and Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund. Under certain circumstances
described in this Statement of Additional Information, redemption proceeds of
certain money market fund shares may be subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge.

Retirement Plans. Certain types of retirement plans are entitled to purchase
shares of the Fund without sales charge or at reduced sales charge rates, as
described in Appendix B to this Statement of Additional Information. Certain
special sales charge arrangements described in that Appendix apply to
retirement plans whose records are maintained on a daily valuation basis by
Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") or an independent
record keeper that has a contract or special arrangement with Merrill Lynch.
If on the date the plan sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record keeping
service agreement the plan has less than $3 million in assets (other than
assets invested in money market funds) invested in applicable investments,
then the retirement plan may purchase only Class B shares of the Oppenheimer
funds. Any retirement plans in that category that currently invest in Class B
shares of the Fund will have their Class B shares converted to Class A shares
of the Fund when the plan's applicable investments reach $5 million.
OppenheimerFunds has entered into arrangements with certain record keepers
whereby the Transfer Agent compensates the record keeper for its record
keeping and account servicing functions that it performs on behalf of the
participant level accounts of a retirement plan. While such compensation may
act to reduce the record keeping fees charged by the retirement plan's record
keeper, that compensation arrangement may be terminated at any time,
potentially affecting the record keeping fees charged by the retirement
plan's record keeper.

Cancellation of Purchase Orders. Cancellation of purchase orders for the
Fund's shares (for example, when a purchase check is returned to the Fund
unpaid) causes a loss to be incurred when the net asset values of the Fund's
shares on the cancellation date is less than on the purchase date. That loss
is equal to the amount of the decline in the net asset value per share
multiplied by the number of shares in the purchase order. The investor is
responsible for that loss. If the investor fails to compensate the Fund for
the loss, the Distributor will do so. The Fund may reimburse the Distributor
for that amount by redeeming shares from any account registered in that
investor's name, or the Fund or the Distributor may seek other redress.

Classes of Shares. Each class of shares of the Fund represents an interest in
the same portfolio of investments of the Fund. However, each class has
different shareholder privileges and features. The net income attributable to
Class B, Class C or Class N shares and the dividends payable on Class B,
Class C or Class N shares will be reduced by incremental expenses borne
solely by that class. Those expenses include the asset-based sales charges to
which Class B, Class C and Class N shares are subject.

      The availability of different classes of shares permits an investor to
choose the method of purchasing shares that is more appropriate for the
investor. That may depend on the amount of the purchase, the length of time
the investor expects to hold shares, and other relevant circumstances. Class
A shares normally are sold subject to an initial sales charge. While Class B,
Class C and Class N shares have no initial sales charge, the purpose of the
deferred sales charge and asset-based sales charge on Class B, Class C and
Class N shares is the same as that of the initial sales charge on Class A
shares - to compensate the Distributor and brokers, dealers and financial
institutions that sell shares of the Fund. A salesperson who is entitled to
receive compensation from his or her firm for selling Fund shares may receive
different levels of compensation for selling one class of shares rather than
another.

      The Distributor will not accept any order in the amount of $500,000 or
more for Class B shares or $1 million or more for Class C shares on behalf of
a single investor (not including dealer "street name" or omnibus accounts).
That is because generally it will be more advantageous for that investor to
purchase Class A shares of the Fund.

      |X| Class A Shares Subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. For
purchases of Class A shares at net asset value whether or not subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge as described in the Prospectus, no sales
concessions will be paid to the broker-dealer of record, as described in the
Prospectus, on sales of Class A shares purchased with the redemption proceeds
of shares of another mutual fund offered as an investment option in a
retirement plan in which Oppenheimer funds are also offered as investment
options under a special arrangement with the Distributor, if the purchase
occurs more than 30 days after the Oppenheimer funds are added as an
investment option under that plan. Additionally, that concession will not be
paid on purchases of Class A shares by a retirement plan made with the
redemption proceeds of Class N shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds held
by the plan for more than 18 months.

      |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| Availability of Class N Shares. In addition to the description of
the types of retirement plans which may purchase Class N shares contained in
the prospectus, Class N shares also are offered to the following:
o     to all rollover IRAs (including SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs),
o     to all rollover contributions made to Individual 401(k) plans,
            Profit-Sharing Plans and Money Purchase Pension Plans,
o     to all direct rollovers from OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle and
            Ascender retirement plans,
o     to all trustee-to-trustee IRA transfers,
o     to all 90-24 type 403(b) transfers,
o     to Group Retirement Plans (as defined in Appendix B to this Statement
            of Additional Information) which have entered into a special
            agreement with the Distributor for that purpose,
o     to Retirement Plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the
            Internal Revenue Code, the recordkeeper or the plan sponsor for
            which has entered into a special agreement with the Distributor,
o     to Retirement Plans of a plan sponsor where the aggregate assets of all
            such plans invested in the Oppenheimer funds is $500,000 or more,
o     to OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Ascender 401(k) plans that pay for the
            purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class A shares of one or
            more Oppenheimer funds, and
o     to certain customers of broker-dealers and financial advisors that are
            identified in a special agreement between the broker-dealer or
            financial advisor and the Distributor for that purpose.

      The sales concession and the advance of the service fee, as described
in the Prospectus, will not be paid to dealers of record on sales of Class N
shares on:
         o  purchases of Class N shares in amounts of $500,000 or more by a
            retirement plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption
            proceeds of Class A shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds
            (other than rollovers from an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle
            or Ascender 401(k) plan to any IRA invested in the Oppenheimer
            funds),
         o  purchases of Class N shares in amounts of $500,000 or more 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 (other than rollovers from an
            OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle or Ascender 401(k) plan to
            any IRA invested in the Oppenheimer funds), and
         o  on purchases of Class N shares by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored
            Pinnacle or Ascender 401(k) plan made with the redemption
            proceeds of Class A shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds.

      No sales concessions will be paid to the broker-dealer of record, as
described in the Prospectus, on sales of Class N shares purchased with the
redemption proceeds of shares of another mutual fund offered as an investment
option in a retirement plan in which Oppenheimer funds are also offered as
investment options under a special arrangement with the Distributor, if the
purchase occurs more than 30 days after the Oppenheimer funds are added as an
investment option under that plan.

      |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 Offering Period or
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.
o     All of the Oppenheimer funds currently offer Class A, B, C, N and Y
      shares with the following exceptions:

      The following funds only offer Class A shares:

      shares of any other fund.
o     Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are
      generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of

      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 Senior Floating Rate Fund are not
      available by exchange of shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or
      Class A shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Select Managers Mercury Advisors S&P Index Fund
      and Oppenheimer Select Managers QM Active Balanced Fund are only
      available to retirement plans and are available only by exchange from
      the same class of shares of other Oppenheimer funds held by retirement
      plans.
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.
      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 30% (29% for
payments after _____________, 2003) 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
30% (29% for payments after ____________, 2003) 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 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

Notes to Statement of Assets and Liabilities:

Note 1.  Organization
     Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II (the ""Fund"") is a
     series of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Trust II. That Trust was
     organized as a business trust in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on
     _____________, 2003 as a diversified open-end management investment
     company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
     amended.  The Fund has had no operations through ______________, 2003
     other than those relating to organizational matters and the sale and
     issuance of 10,000 Class A shares, 100 Class B shares, 100 Class C
     shares,  and 100 Class N shares of beneficial interest to
     OppenheimerFunds, Inc.(""OFI"" or the ""Adviser"").

     On March 14th, 2003, the Fund's Board of Trustees approved an Investment
     Advisory Agreement with OFI and a Distributor's Agreement with
     OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (""OFDI""), a wholly-owned subsidiary
     of OFI. On ____________, 2003 the fund's Board of Trustees approved a
     revised Investment Advisory Agreement with OFI.

     The Fund has entered into an agreement with a third party to provide a
     warranty to the Fund.
     The Warranty Agreement is a contractual obligation for the Warranty
     Provider to make a payment to the Fund within 12 days of the end of the
     Warranty Period in the event the Fund's assets are insufficient to
     redeem out Fund shares at the Warranty Amount (which is the investor's
     account value at the end of the Offering Period less any sales charges
     paid and extraordinary expenses incurred by the Fund).  The Warranty
     Agreement may be terminated by the Fund  at any time upon the occurrence
     of an Act of Insolvency with respect to the Warranty Provider, or if the
     Warranty Provider  ceases to be "well capitalized" under FDIC
     regulations and may be terminated by the Warranty Provider only in
     certain specified circumstances as described in the Warranty Agreement.

     The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital preservation in order
     to have a net asset value on the Maturity Date at least equal to the
     Warranty Amount.  The Fund seeks high total return as a secondary
     objective.

     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).

Note 2.  Significant Accounting Policies
     OFI has assumed organization cost estimated to be $150,000 and a portion
     of the initial offering costs estimated at $233,000.

     The Fund's financial statements are prepared in conformity with
     accounting principles generally accepted in the United States which may
     require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results
     could differ from those estimates.

     The Fund intends to comply in its initial fiscal year and thereafter
     with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
     investment companies and as such, will not be subject to federal income
     taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains)
     distributed to shareholders.

     Offering costs will be charged to paid-in-capital in proportion to the
     number of shares sold during the offering period.

Note 3.  Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliated Parties
     The Fund will pay the Adviser a monthly fee (the ""Management Fee"") at
     the annual rate of 0.50% of average annual net assets reduced by the
     amount of management fees paid to OFI by Oppenheimer Main Street Fund
     relating to the Fund's assets invested in Oppenheimer Main Street Fund
     during the payment period. However, Management fees shall not be reduced
     below zero.  In the event the Fund's assets become completely and
     irrevocably invested in debt securities, the management fee will be

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).

         intermediary for purchasing shares.
|_|   Directors, trustees, officers or full-time employees of OpCap Advisors

         Code), in each case if those purchases are made through a broker,
         agent or other financial intermediary that has made special
         arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
|_|   A TRAC-2000 401(k) plan (sponsored by the former Quest for Value
         Advisors) whose Class B or Class C shares of a Former Quest for
         Value Fund were exchanged for Class A shares of that Fund due to the
         termination of the Class B and Class C TRAC-2000 program on November
         24, 1995.
|_|   A qualified Retirement Plan that had agreed with the former Quest for

         fund (other than a fund managed by the Manager or any of its
         subsidiaries) on which an initial sales charge or contingent
         deferred sales charge was paid. This waiver also applies to shares
         purchased by exchange of shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund,

            Retirement Plan if the plan has made special arrangements with
            the Distributor.
         11)      Distributions made on account of a plan termination or

November 24, 1995:

   Quest for Value U.S. Government Income Fund  Quest for Value New York
   Tax-Exempt Fund
   Quest for Value Investment Quality Income Fund     Quest for Value
   National Tax-Exempt Fund
   Quest for Value Global Income Fund     Quest for Value California
   Tax-Exempt Fund

      All of the funds listed above are referred to in this Appendix as the
"Former Quest for Value Funds."  The waivers of initial and contingent
deferred sales charges described in this Appendix apply to shares of an
Oppenheimer fund that are either:
|_|   acquired by such shareholder pursuant to an exchange of shares of an
         Oppenheimer fund that was one of the Former Quest for Value Funds,
         or
|_|   purchased by such shareholder by exchange of shares of another
         Oppenheimer fund that were acquired pursuant to the merger of any of
         the Former Quest for Value Funds into that other Oppenheimer fund on
         November 24, 1995.

A. Reductions or Waivers of Class A Sales Charges.

|X|   Reduced Class A Initial Sales Charge Rates for Certain Former Quest for
Value Funds Shareholders.

Purchases by Groups and Associations. The following table sets forth the
initial sales charge rates for Class A shares purchased by members of
"Associations" formed for any purpose other than the purchase of securities.
The rates in the table apply if that Association purchased shares of any of
the Former Quest for Value Funds or received a proposal to purchase such
shares from OCC Distributors prior to November 24, 1995.

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

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      For purchases by Associations having 50 or more eligible employees or
members, there is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares, but
those shares are subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge
described in the applicable fund's Prospectus.

      Purchases made under this arrangement qualify for the lower of either
the sales charge rate in the table based on the number of members of an
Association, or the sales charge rate that applies under the Right of
Accumulation described in the applicable fund's Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information. Individuals who qualify under this arrangement for
reduced sales charge rates as members of Associations also may purchase
shares for their individual or custodial accounts at these reduced sales
charge rates, upon request to the Distributor.

|X|   Waiver of Class A Sales Charges for Certain Shareholders. Class A
shares purchased by the following investors are not subject to any Class A
initial or contingent deferred sales charges:
         Shareholders who were shareholders of the AMA Family of Funds on
            February 28, 1991 and who acquired shares of any of the Former
            Quest for Value Funds by merger of a portfolio of the AMA Family
            of Funds.
         Shareholders who acquired shares of any Former Quest for Value Fund
            by merger of any of the portfolios of the Unified Funds.

|X|   Waiver of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge in Certain
Transactions. The Class A contingent deferred sales charge will not apply to
redemptions of Class A shares purchased by the following investors who were
shareholders of any Former Quest for Value Fund:

      Investors who purchased Class A shares from a dealer that is or was not
permitted to receive a sales load or redemption fee imposed on a shareholder
with whom that dealer has a fiduciary relationship, under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and regulations adopted under that law.

B. Class A, Class B and Class C Contingent Deferred Sales Charge Waivers.

|X|   Waivers for Redemptions of Shares Purchased Prior to March 6, 1995. In
the following cases, the contingent deferred sales charge will be waived for
redemptions of Class A, Class B or Class C shares of an Oppenheimer fund. The
shares must have been acquired by the merger of a Former Quest for Value Fund
into the fund or by exchange from an Oppenheimer fund that was a Former Quest
for Value Fund or into which such fund merged. Those shares must have been
purchased prior to March 6, 1995 in connection with:
         withdrawals under an automatic withdrawal plan holding only either
            Class B or Class C shares if the annual withdrawal does not
            exceed 10% of the initial value of the account value, adjusted
            annually, and
         liquidation of a shareholder's account if the aggregate net asset
            value of shares held in the account is less than the required
            minimum value of such accounts.

|X|   Waivers for Redemptions of Shares Purchased on or After March 6, 1995
but Prior to November 24, 1995. In the following cases, the contingent
deferred sales charge will be waived for redemptions of Class A, Class B or
Class C shares of an Oppenheimer fund. The shares must have been acquired by
the merger of a Former Quest for Value Fund into the fund or by exchange from
an Oppenheimer fund that was a Former Quest For Value Fund or into which such
Former Quest for Value Fund merged. Those shares must have been purchased on
or after March 6, 1995, but prior to November 24, 1995:
         redemptions following the death or disability of the shareholder(s)
            (as evidenced by a determination of total disability by the U.S.
            Social Security Administration);
         withdrawals under an automatic withdrawal plan (but only for Class B
            or Class C shares) where the annual withdrawals do not exceed 10%
            of the initial value of the account value; adjusted annually, and
         liquidation of a shareholder's account if the aggregate net asset
            value of shares held in the account is less than the required
            minimum account value.

      A shareholder's account will be credited with the amount of any
contingent deferred sales charge paid on the redemption of any Class A, Class
B or Class C shares of the Oppenheimer fund described in this section if the
proceeds are invested in the same Class of shares in that fund or another
Oppenheimer fund within 90 days after redemption.
V.         Special Sales Charge Arrangements for Shareholders of Certain
          Oppenheimer Funds Who Were Shareholders of Connecticut Mutual
                            Investment Accounts, Inc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The initial and contingent deferred sale charge rates and waivers for Class A
and Class B shares described in the respective Prospectus (or this Appendix)
of the following Oppenheimer funds (each is referred to as a "Fund" in this
section):
   Oppenheimer U. S. Government Trust,
   Oppenheimer Bond Fund,
   Oppenheimer Value Fund and
   Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund
are modified as described below for those Fund shareholders who were
shareholders of the following funds (referred to as the "Former Connecticut
Mutual Funds") on March 1, 1996, when OppenheimerFunds, Inc. became the
investment adviser to the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds:
   Connecticut Mutual Liquid Account      Connecticut Mutual Total Return
   Account
   Connecticut Mutual Government Securities Account   CMIA LifeSpan Capital
   Appreciation Account
   Connecticut Mutual Income Account      CMIA LifeSpan Balanced Account

A. Prior Class A CDSC and Class A Sales Charge Waivers.

|X|   Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. Certain shareholders of a
Fund and the other Former Connecticut Mutual Funds are entitled to continue
to make additional purchases of Class A shares at net asset value without a
Class A initial sales charge, but subject to the Class A contingent deferred
sales charge that was in effect prior to March 18, 1996 (the "prior Class A
CDSC"). Under the prior Class A CDSC, if any of those shares are redeemed
within one year of purchase, they will be assessed a 1% contingent deferred
sales charge on an amount equal to the current market value or the original
purchase price of the shares sold, whichever is smaller (in such redemptions,
any shares not subject to the prior Class A CDSC will be redeemed first).

      Those shareholders who are eligible for the prior Class A CDSC are:
         1) persons whose purchases of Class A shares of a Fund and other
            Former Connecticut Mutual Funds were $500,000 prior to March 18,
            1996, as a result of direct purchases or purchases pursuant to
            the Fund's policies on Combined Purchases or Rights of
            Accumulation, who still hold those shares in that Fund or other
            Former Connecticut Mutual Funds, and
         2) persons whose intended purchases under a Statement of Intention
            entered into prior to March 18, 1996, with the former general
            distributor of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds to purchase
            shares valued at $500,000 or more over a 13-month period entitled
            those persons to purchase shares at net asset value without being
            subject to the Class A initial sales charge

      Any of the Class A shares of a Fund and the other Former Connecticut
Mutual Funds that were purchased at net asset value prior to March 18, 1996,
remain subject to the prior Class A CDSC, or if any additional shares are
purchased by those shareholders at net asset value pursuant to this
arrangement they will be subject to the prior Class A CDSC.

|X|   Class A Sales Charge Waivers. Additional Class A shares of a Fund may
be purchased without a sales charge, by a person who was in one (or more) of
the categories below and acquired Class A shares prior to March 18, 1996, and
still holds Class A shares:
         1) any purchaser, provided the total initial amount invested in the
            Fund or any one or more of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds
            totaled $500,000 or more, including investments made pursuant to
            the Combined Purchases, Statement of Intention and Rights of
            Accumulation features available at the time of the initial
            purchase and such investment is still held in one or more of the
            Former Connecticut Mutual Funds or a Fund into which such Fund
            merged;
         2) any participant in a qualified plan, provided that the total
            initial amount invested by the plan in the Fund or any one or
            more of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds totaled $500,000 or
            more;
         3) Directors of the Fund or any one or more of the Former
            Connecticut Mutual Funds and members of their immediate families;
         4) employee benefit plans sponsored by Connecticut Mutual Financial
            Services, L.L.C. ("CMFS"), the prior distributor of the Former
            Connecticut Mutual Funds, and its affiliated companies;
         5) one or more members of a group of at least 1,000 persons (and
            persons who are retirees from such group) engaged in a common
            business, profession, civic or charitable endeavor or other
            activity, and the spouses and minor dependent children of such
            persons, pursuant to a marketing program between CMFS and such
            group; and
         6) an institution acting as a fiduciary on behalf of an individual
            or individuals, if such institution was directly compensated by
            the individual(s) for recommending the purchase of the shares of
            the Fund or any one or more of the Former Connecticut Mutual
            Funds, provided the institution had an agreement with CMFS.

      Purchases of Class A shares made pursuant to (1) and (2) above may be
subject to the Class A CDSC of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds described
above.

      Additionally, Class A shares of a Fund may be purchased without a sales
charge by any holder of a variable annuity contract issued in New York State
by Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company through the Panorama Separate
Account which is beyond the applicable surrender charge period and which was
used to fund a qualified plan, if that holder exchanges the variable annuity
contract proceeds to buy Class A shares of the Fund.

B. Class A and Class B Contingent Deferred Sales Charge Waivers.

In addition to the waivers set forth in the Prospectus and in this Appendix,
above, the contingent deferred sales charge will be waived for redemptions of
Class A and Class B shares of a Fund and exchanges of Class A or Class B
shares of a Fund into Class A or Class B shares of a Former Connecticut
Mutual Fund provided that the Class A or Class B shares of the Fund to be
redeemed or exchanged were (i) acquired prior to March 18, 1996 or (ii) were
acquired by exchange from an Oppenheimer fund that was a Former Connecticut
Mutual Fund. Additionally, the shares of such Former Connecticut Mutual Fund
must have been purchased prior to March 18, 1996:
   1) by the estate of a deceased shareholder;
   2) upon the disability of a shareholder, as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of
      the Internal Revenue Code;
   3) for retirement distributions (or loans) to participants or
      beneficiaries from retirement plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or
      403(b)(7)of the Code, or from IRAs, deferred compensation plans created
      under Section 457 of the Code, or other employee benefit plans;
   4) as tax-free returns of excess contributions to such retirement or
      employee benefit plans;
   5) in whole or in part, in connection with shares sold to any state,
      county, or city, or any instrumentality, department, authority, or
      agency thereof, that is prohibited by applicable investment laws from
      paying a sales charge or concession in connection with the purchase of
      shares of any registered investment management company;
   6) in connection with the redemption of shares of the Fund due to a
      combination with another investment company by virtue of a merger,

      Withdrawal Plan but limited to no more than 12% of the original value
      annually; or
   9) as involuntary redemptions of shares by operation of law, or under
      procedures set forth in the Fund's Articles of Incorporation, or as
      adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund.
VI.       Special Reduced Sales Charge for Former Shareholders of Advance
                                America Funds, Inc.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shareholders of Oppenheimer Municipal Bond Fund, Oppenheimer U.S. Government
Trust, Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Income Fund
who acquired (and still hold) shares of those funds as a result of the
reorganization of series of Advance America Funds, Inc. into those
Oppenheimer funds on October 18, 1991, and who held shares of Advance America
Funds, Inc. on March 30, 1990, may purchase Class A shares of those four
Oppenheimer funds at a maximum sales charge rate of 4.50%.
VII.     Sales Charge Waivers on Purchases of Class M Shares of Oppenheimer
                            Convertible Securities Fund
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund (referred to as the "Fund" in this
section) may sell Class M shares at net asset value without any initial sales
charge to the classes of investors listed below who, prior to March 11, 1996,
owned shares of the Fund's then-existing Class A and were permitted to
purchase those shares at net asset value without sales charge:
|_|   the Manager and its affiliates,
|_|   present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and
         their "immediate families" as defined in the Fund's Statement of
         Additional Information) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates,
         and retirement plans established by them or the prior investment
         advisor of the Fund for their employees,
|_|   registered management investment companies or separate accounts of
         insurance companies that had an agreement with the Fund's prior
         investment advisor or distributor for that purpose,
|_|   dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
         they purchase shares for their own accounts or for retirement plans
         for their employees,
|_|   employees and registered representatives (and their spouses) of dealers
         or brokers described in the preceding section or financial
         institutions that have entered into sales arrangements with those
         dealers or brokers (and whose identity is made known to the
         Distributor) or with the Distributor, but only if the purchaser
         certifies to the Distributor at the time of purchase that the
         purchaser meets these qualifications,
|_|   dealers, brokers, or registered investment advisors that had entered
         into an agreement with the Distributor or the prior distributor of
         the Fund specifically providing for the use of Class M shares of the
         Fund in specific investment products made available to their
         clients, and
|_|   dealers, brokers or registered investment advisors that had entered
         into an agreement with the Distributor or prior distributor of the
         Fund's shares to sell shares to defined contribution employee
         retirement plans for which the dealer, broker, or investment advisor
         provides administrative services.

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.

                                     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 II. 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 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;
o     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| 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 of 1940.

      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 that causes more
than 10% of its net assets to be subject to repurchase agreements having a
maturity beyond seven days. 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 Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Underlying Fund, along with other affiliated entities 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 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 its
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| 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 in this Appendix C.

      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.

            o 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 II 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 Underlying
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 interUnderlying Fund 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. 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 its Statement of Additional
Information. That is not a Fundamental policy.

Item 24. - Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with the Fund

None.

Item 25. - Indemnification
--------------------------

Reference is made to the provisions of Article Seven of Registrant's
Declaration of Trust filed as Exhibit 23(a) to this Registration Statement,
and incorporated herein by reference.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, Registrant has
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling
person of Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person,
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 26. - Business and Other Connections of the Investment Adviser
-------------------------------------------------------------------

(a)   OppenheimerFunds,  Inc. is the investment adviser of the Registrant;  it
and certain  subsidiaries  and  affiliates  act in the same  capacity to other

Item 28. Location of Accounts and Records
-----------------------------------------

The accounts, books and other documents required to be maintained by
Registrant pursuant to Section 31(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940
and rules promulgated thereunder are in the possession of OppenheimerFunds,
Inc. at its offices at 6803 South Tucson Way, Centennial, Colorado 80112-3924.

Item 29. Management Services
----------------------------

Not applicable

Item 30. Undertakings
---------------------

During the Warranty Period, the Registrant hereby undertakes to mail notices
to current shareholders promptly after the happening of significant events
related to the Financial Warranty issued by Main Place Funding, LLC ("Main
Place") (or any successors or substituted entities thereto) to the Fund under
the Financial Warranty Agreement. These significant events include (i) the
termination of the Financial Warranty Agreement; (ii) a default under the
Financial Warranty Agreement that has a material adverse effect on a
shareholder's right to receive his or her Warranty Amount on the Maturity
Date; or (iii) the insolvency of Main Place (or any successors or substituted
entities thereto).

If at any time during the Warranty Period during which the Registrant is
required to file amendments to its registration statement with respect to the
Fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"),
Main Place (or such successors or substituted entities, as applicable) ceases
to file periodic reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Registrant hereby undertakes to update its
registration statement on an annual basis under the 1940 Act to include
updated audited financial statements for Main Place (or any successors or
substituted entities thereto), as applicable, covering the periods that would
otherwise have been required by Form 10-K under the Exchange Act. Further,
the Registrant undertakes under such circumstances to include as an exhibit
to its registration statement as it relates to the Fund, the consent of the
independent auditors of Main Place (or such successors or substituted
entities), as applicable, regarding such reports.

At such times as the Registrant files an amendment to its Registration
Statement on Form N-1A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"1933 Act") which relates to the Fund, the Registrant hereby undertakes to
update its Registration Statement to incorporate by reference the annual
report on Form 10-K or include the audited financial statements covering the
periods that would otherwise have been required by Form 10-K for each of (i)
Main Place, (ii) Main Place's successors to the Financial Warranty Agreement
as applicable, or (iii) any entity that is replaced or substituted for Main
Place under a new financial warranty agreement or the existing Financial
Warranty Agreement. Further, the Registrant undertakes to include as an
exhibit to any amendment to its Registration Statement filed under the 1933
Act, the consent of the independent auditors of Main Place (or such
successors or substituted entities, as applicable) regarding such reports.

In the event that a Warranty Provider to the Fund is an entity other than
Main Place ("Substitute Warranty Provider"), and such Substitute Warranty
Provider files Forms 10-K under the Exchange Act then Registrant hereby
undertakes to incorporate by reference in its Statement of Additional
Information on an annual basis under the 1940 Act updated audited financial
statements for the Substitute Warranty Provider included in such Forms 10-K
under the Exchange Act. In the event that at any time during the Warranty
Period during which the Registrant is required to file amendments to its
Registration Statement under the 1940 Act the Substitute Warranty Provider
ceases to file a Form 10-K pursuant to the Exchange Act or if any other
Substitute Warranty Provider is not required to file a Form 10-K pursuant to
the Exchange Act, the Registrant undertakes to update its Registration
Statement on an annual basis under the 1940 Act to include updated audited
financial statements for the then-current Substitute Warranty Provider (or
any successors or substituted entities thereto) and will obtain a
representation from said Substitute Warranty Provider (or any successors or
substituted entities thereto) that its audited financial statements provided
to Registrant for inclusion in Registrant's Registration Statement, as it may
be amended from time to time, have been and will be prepared in accordance
with Regulation S-X and U.S. GAAP covering the periods that would be required
if the Substitute Warranty Provider was required to file Form 10-K under the
Exchange Act. Any Substitute Warranty Provider's audited financial statements
will also be incorporated by reference in Registrant's Statement of
Additional Information. Further, the Registrant undertakes under any
circumstances described in this paragraph to include as an exhibit to its
Registration Statement as it relates to the Fund, the consent of the
independent auditors of the Substitute Warranty Provider (or such successors
or substituted entities), as applicable, regarding such financial statements.

During the Warranty Period, the Registrant hereby undertakes to include in
the Registrant's annual and semiannual reports (with respect to the Fund) to
shareholders, an offer to supply the most recent annual and/or quarterly
report of Main Place, or any Substitute Warranty Provider to the Financial
Warranty or Financial Warranty Agreement, free of charge, upon a
shareholder's request.
