ABOUT THE FUND

The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE? The Fund seeks long-term capital
appreciation.

WHAT DOES THE FUND MAINLY INVEST IN? The Fund invests mainly in the common
stock of companies located in Japan.  A company generally is considered to be
located in Japan     if it is tied economically to Japan, as determined by
the Fund's management.  The criteria the Fund's management will consider in
making that determination are:
  o it is domiciled in Japan; or
  o its securities are quoted or traded on any Japanese stock exchange;
and

  o it derives at least 50% of its revenue from Japan; or
  o it has at least 50% of its assets in Japan.



The Fund will emphasize investments in equity securities.  Equity investments
include common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible into
common stock.  Under normal market conditions the Fund will invest at least
80% of its net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes in equity
securities of companies located in Japan.  The Fund will provide shareholders
with at least 60 days' prior written notice of any change in this investment
policy. The Fund can (but is not required to) invest up to 100% of its total
assets in foreign securities.

The Fund will generally invest a substantial portion of its assets in stocks
issued by large-cap companies located in Japan. However, at times, the Fund
may invest to a greater extent in stocks issued by small- to mid-cap
companies, whose prices may be more volatile than stocks issued by large-cap
companies.  "Small-cap" companies are those that at the time of purchase have
market capitalizations below USD$500 million.  "Mid-cap" companies are those
that at the time of purchase have market capitalizations between USD$500
million and USD$2 billion.  "Large-cap" companies are those that at the time
of purchase have capitalizations above USD$2 billion.  The Fund will
emphasize investments in growth companies.

HOW DOES THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER DECIDE WHAT SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL? The
Fund's Investment Manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the "Manager"), has
retained Baring Asset Management, Inc. (the "Sub-Adviser") to provide the
day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund's assets. The Fund's portfolio
manager is employed by the Sub-Adviser.


The Sub-Adviser employs a growth at a reasonable price philosophy that
focuses on companies and sectors that the Sub-Adviser believies offer
unrecognized growth and the potential for earnings surprises.  The
Sub-Adviser combines top down country and sector insights with bottom-up
stock analysis to determine candidates for the investment portfolio.

The Sub-Adviser uses quantitative screening to narrow the size of the
investment universe and then performs fundamental analysis on companies
focusing on long-term drivers and short-term catalysts relating principally
to growth surprise, liquidity, management and valuations. The Sub-Adviser
then seeks to construct a broadly diversified portfolio that emphasizes
companies rated highly from a bottom up perspective in industries and sectors
that are rated highly from a top down perspective.  In evaluating prospective
investments, the Sub-Adviser uses internal financial, economic and credit
analysis resources as well as information obtained from external sources.
Sell decisions are generally based on one or a mix of the following: a
stock's price meeting long-term price targets; a stock's price not meeting
the Sub-Adviser's expectations; or the Fund's investment in a stock no longer
being consistent with the Sub-Adviser's views on prevailing economic or
investment cycles.


WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED FOR? The Fund is designed primarily for investors
seeking capital appreciation in their investment over the long term from a
fund that emphasizes investments in Japan. Those investors should be willing
to assume the greater risks of share price fluctuations that are typical for
an aggressive fund focusing on growth stock investments, and the special
risks of investing in both emerging and developed foreign countries. The Fund
does not seek current income and the income from its investments will likely
be small, so it is not designed for investors needing income. Because of its
focus on long-term capital appreciation, the Fund may be appropriate for some
portion of a retirement plan investment for investors with a high risk
tolerance. However, the Fund is not a complete investment program.

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund

All investments carry risks to some degree. The Fund's investments in stocks
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 Sub-Adviser
will cause the Fund to underperform other funds having similar objectives.
Changes in the market prices of securities can occur at any time. The share
prices of the Fund will change daily based on changes in market prices of
securities, market conditions, and in response to other economic and
political events.


RISKS OF INVESTING IN STOCKS. Because the Fund invests primarily in common
stocks of foreign companies, the value of the Fund's portfolio will be
affected by changes in the foreign stock markets and the special economic and
other factors that might primarily affect the prices of particular foreign
markets and in particular, the Japanese stock market. The Fund's emphasis on
growth stocks can also result in higher volatility, as explained below under
"Growth Stock Investments". That volatility is likely to be even greater for
stocks issued by small- and mid-cap companies in which the Fund may invest a
substantial amount of its assets. Market risk will affect the Fund's net
asset values per share, which will fluctuate as the values of the Fund's
portfolio securities change. 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.


Additionally, stocks of issuers in a particular industry may be affected by
changes in economic conditions that affect that industry more than others, or
by changes in government regulations, availability of basic resources or
supplies, or other events affecting that industry. To the extent the Fund
emphasizes investments in a particular industry, its share values may
fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry.

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.

RISKS OF FOREIGN INVESTING. While foreign securities may offer special
investment opportunities, there are also special risks. The change in value
of a foreign currency against the U.S. dollar will result in a change in the
U.S. dollar value of securities denominated in that foreign currency. Foreign
issuers are not subject to the same accounting and disclosure requirements
that U.S. companies are subject to. These risks could cause the prices of
foreign stocks to fall and could therefore depress the Fund's share prices.
The value of foreign investments may be affected by exchange control
regulations, expropriation or nationalization of a company's assets, foreign
taxes, delays in settlement of transactions, changes in governmental economic
or monetary policy in the U.S. or abroad, or other political and economic
factors.

Additionally, the Fund may be exposed to "time-zone arbitrage" attempts by
investors seeking to take advantage of the differences in value of foreign
securities that might result from events that occur after the close of the
foreign securities market on which a foreign security is traded and before
the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that day, when the
Fund's net asset value is calculated. If such time-zone arbitrage were
successful, it might dilute the interests of other shareholders. However, the
Fund's use of "fair value pricing" to adjust the closing market prices of
foreign securities under certain circumstances, to reflect what the Manager
and the Board believe to be their fair value, and the imposition of
redemption fees, may help deter those activities.

Risks of Investing in Japan.  The Fund's concentration in Japanese issuers
will expose it to the risks of adverse social, political and economic events
which occur in Japan or affect the Japanese markets.  These risks may
adversely affect the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment
objective.  Securities traded on Japanese stock exchanges have exhibited
significant volatility in recent years.  Investments in Japanese issuers may
also present special additional risks not typically associated with
investments in domestic securities, including reduction of income by Japanese
taxes, transaction charges for currency exchange, different accounting and
reporting standards, higher brokerage commissions and delays in settlement of
portfolio transactions.


      Currency Exchange Rate Risk.  Investments in securities issued and
       traded in Japanese currency (the "yen") may be affected by changes in
       exchange rates between that currency and the U.S. dollar, as well as
       between currencies of countries other than the U.S.  For example, if
       the value of the U.S. dollar goes up compared to the yen, an
       investment traded in the yen will go down in value because it will be
       worth fewer U.S. dollars.  Currency hedging will not take place within
       the Fund, so investors should be aware that changes in exchange rates
       between currencies may cause the value of the Fund's investments to
       diminish or increase.


SPECIAL RISKS OF GROWTH STOCKS. Stocks of growth companies may provide
greater opportunities for capital appreciation but may be more volatile than
other stocks. That volatility is likely to be even greater for growth
companies in emerging markets.

The Fund can buy stocks of companies in any capitalization range and focuses
its investments on securities of companies the Sub-Adviser thinks have growth
possibilities. Newer small companies may offer greater opportunities for
capital appreciation, but they involve substantially greater risks of loss
and price fluctuations. Their stocks may be less liquid than those of larger
issuers. That means the Fund could have greater difficulty selling a security
of a smaller issuer at an acceptable price, especially in periods of market
volatility. That factor increases the potential for losses to the Fund. Also,
it may take a substantial period of time before the Fund realizes a gain on
an investment in a small-cap company, if it realizes any gain at all.

Special Risks of Stocks Issued by Small- and Mid-Cap Companies. These
companies can include both established and newer companies. While newer
growth companies might offer greater opportunities for capital appreciation
than larger, more established companies, they involve substantially greater
risks of loss and price fluctuations than larger issuers.

Stocks of small- and mid-cap companies may have limited product lines or
markets for their products, limited access to financial resources and less
depth in management skill than larger, more established companies. Their
stocks may be less liquid than those of larger issuers. That means the Fund
could have greater difficulty selling their securities at an acceptable
price, especially in periods of market volatility. That factor increases the
potential for losses to the Fund. Also, it may take a substantial period of
time before the Fund realizes a gain on an investment in the stocks of a
small- or mid-cap company, if it realizes any gain at all.


To the extent that the Fund invests significantly in small-cap equity
securities, because those types of securities may be traded infrequently,
investors may seek to trade fund shares based on their knowledge or
understanding of the value of those types of securities (this is sometimes
referred to as "price arbitrage"). The Fund may impose a 2% redemption fee in
certain circumstances to attempt to deter such price arbitrage. Such price
arbitrage, if otherwise successful, might interfere with the efficient
management of the Fund's portfolio to a greater degree than would be the case
for funds that invest in more liquid securities, because the Fund may have
difficulty selling those securities at advantageous times or prices to
satisfy the liquidity requirements created by large and/or frequent trading
activity. Successful price arbitrage activities might also dilute the value
of fund shares held by other shareholders.


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. When you redeem your
shares, they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them. There is
no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The prices of the Fund's shares can go up and down substantially. The Fund
generally does not use income-oriented investments to help cushion the Fund's
total return from changes in stock prices. In the OppenheimerFunds spectrum,
the Fund is an aggressive investment vehicle, designed for investors willing
to assume greater risks in the hope of achieving long-term capital
appreciation. It is likely to be subject to greater fluctuations in its share
prices than funds that do not invest in foreign securities (especially
emerging market securities) or funds that focus on both stocks and bonds.


The Fund's Past Performance


Because the Fund commenced operations on January 31, 2007, prior performance
information for a full calendar year is not yet available. To obtain the
Fund's performance information to date, you can contact the Fund's transfer
agent, OppenheimerFunds Services ("Transfer Agent") at the toll-free
telephone number on the back cover of this Prospectus or visit the
OppenheimerFunds website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.  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.


Fees and Expenses of the Fund

The following tables are provided to help you understand the fees and
expenses you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund. The Fund pays a
variety of expenses directly for management of its assets, administration,
distribution of its shares and other services. Those expenses are subtracted
from the Fund's assets to calculate the Fund's net asset values per share.
All shareholders therefore pay those expenses indirectly. Shareholders pay
other transaction expenses directly, such as sales charges. The numbers below
are based on the Fund's estimated expenses during its first full fiscal year.

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

Expenses may vary in future years. The Manager has agreed to waive its
management fees and/or reimburse expenses such that "Total Annual Operating
Expenses" for Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, Class N shares
and Class Y shares, respectively, do not exceed 1.60%, 2.35%, 2.35%, 1.85%
and 1.35% of average daily net assets. Because the Fund is a new fund,
however, with less than six months of operations as of its fiscal year end,
the rates for management fees are the maximum rates that can be charged.
"Other Expenses" include transfer agent fees, custodial fees, and accounting
and legal expenses that the Fund pays. The transfer agent has voluntarily
undertaken to waive a portion of its fees to limit these fees to 0.35% of
average net assets per fiscal year for all classes.

1.    A Class A contingent deferred sales charge may apply to redemptions of
   investments of $1 million or more or to certain retirement plan
   redemptions. See "How to Buy Shares" for details.

2.    Applies to redemptions in first year after purchase. The contingent
   deferred sales charge gradually declines from 5% to 1% in years one
   through six and is eliminated after that.
3.    Applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase.
4.    Applies to shares redeemed within 18 months of a retirement plan's
   first purchase of Class N shares.
5.    The redemption fee applies to the proceeds of Fund shares that are
   redeemed (either by selling or exchanging to another Oppenheimer fund)
   within 30 days of their purchase. See "How to Sell Shares" for more
   information on when the redemption fee will apply.

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 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               $730         $1,055

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

Class B Shares               $741          $1042

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

Class C Shares               $341          $742

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

Class N Shares               $290          $587

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

Class Y Shares               $138          $430

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

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

If shares are not           1 Year        3 Years
redeemed:

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

Class A Shares               $730         $1,055

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

Class B Shares               $241          $742

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

Class C Shares               $241          $742

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

Class N Shares               $190          $587

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

Class Y Shares               $138          $430

-----------------------------------------------------
 In the first example,  expenses  include the initial sales charge for Class A
 and the  applicable  Class B, Class C and 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  contingent
 deferred sales charges. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.

About the Fund's Investments

THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISKS. The allocation of the
Fund's portfolio among different investments will vary over time based upon
the Sub-Adviser's evaluation of economic and market trends. The Fund's
portfolio might not always include all of the different types of investments
described in this prospectus. The Statement of Additional Information
contains more detailed information about the Fund's investment policies and
risks.

The Sub-Adviser tries to reduce risks by carefully researching securities
before they are purchased. The Fund attempts to reduce its exposure to market
risks by diversifying its investments, that is, by not holding a substantial
amount of stock of any one company and by not investing too great a
percentage of the Fund's assets in any one company. Also, the Fund does not
concentrate more than 25% of its assets in investments in any one industry or
group of related industries. That limit does not apply to securities issued
or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies and instrumentalities or
securities issued by investment companies.

However, changes in the overall market prices of securities can occur at any
time. The share prices of the Fund will change daily based on changes in
market prices of securities and market conditions and in response to other
economic events.

Growth Stock Investments. The Fund emphasizes investments in common stocks of
foreign companies that the Sub-Adviser believes have growth potential. Growth
companies can be new or established companies that may be developing new
products or services that have relatively favorable prospects, or that are
expanding into new and growing markets. Current examples include companies in
the fields of telecommunications, biotechnology, computer software, and new
consumer products.


Growth companies may be applying new technology on new or improved
distribution techniques, or developing new services that might enable them to
capture a dominant or important market position. They may have a special area
of expertise or the capability to take advantage of changes in demographic
factors in a more profitable way than competitors.


Growth companies tend to retain a large part of their earnings for research,
development or investment in capital assets. Therefore, they do not tend to
emphasize paying dividends, and may not pay any dividends for some time. They
are selected for the Fund's portfolio because the Sub-Adviser believes the
price of their stock will increase over the long term. However, growth stocks
may be more volatile than other stock investments. They may lose favor with
investors if the issuer's business plans do not produce the expected results,
or if growth investing falls out of favor with investors. Growth stocks may
be subject to more volatility because of investor speculation about the
issuer's prospects.


Foreign Securities. The foreign securities the Fund can buy include stocks
and other equity securities of companies organized under the laws of a
foreign country, or companies that have a substantial portion of their
operations or assets abroad or derive a substantial portion of their revenue
or profits from businesses, investments or sales outside the U.S. Foreign
securities include securities traded primarily on foreign securities
exchanges or in foreign over-the-counter markets. The Fund considers
securities of foreign issuers that are represented in the United States
securities markets by American Depository Receipts ("ADRs") or similar
depository arrangements to be "foreign securities" for purposes of its
investment allocations.


The Fund can also buy debt securities issued by foreign companies, but they
would primarily be convertible securities. It can buy debt securities issued
by foreign governments or their agencies, but these are not expected to be a
main investment strategy of the Fund.

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 fundamental policy. Other 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.

OTHER INVESTMENT STRATEGIES. To seek its objective, the Fund can use the
non-principal investment techniques and strategies described below. The Fund
might not always use all of them, and is not required to use them to achieve
its objective. These techniques have risks, although some are designed to
help reduce overall investment or market risks.

Convertible Securities. While the Fund emphasizes investments in common
stocks, it can also buy securities convertible into common stock. Many
convertible securities are a form of debt security, but the Sub-Adviser
regards some of them as "equity substitutes" because of their feature
allowing them to be converted into common stock. Therefore, their credit
ratings have less impact on the Sub-Adviser's investment decision than in the
case of other debt securities. Nevertheless, convertible debt securities are
subject to both credit risk and interest rate risk described below. The Fund
does not expect that its holdings of convertible securities (or other debt
securities) will normally represent more than 5% of its total assets.

The Fund can buy below-investment-grade convertible debt securities.
Lower-grade debt securities may be subject to greater market fluctuations and
greater risks of loss of income and principal than investment-grade debt
securities. Securities that are (or that have fallen) below investment grade
are exposed to a greater risk that the issuers of those securities might not
meet their debt obligations.  These risks can reduce the Fund's share prices
and the income it earns. To the extent the Fund buys debt securities it will
focus primarily on investment-grade securities.


o     Credit Risk.  Debt securities are subject to credit risk.  Credit risk
      relates to the ability of the issuer of a security to make interest and
      principal payments on the security as they become due. If the issuer
      fails to pay interest, the Fund's income might be reduced, and if the
      issuer fails to repay principal, the value of that security and of the
      Fund's shares might be reduced. A downgrade in an issuer's credit
      rating or other adverse news about an issuer can reduce the value of
      that issuer's securities. The debt securities the Fund may invest in,
      particularly high-yield, lower-grade debt securities, or "junk" bonds,
      are subject to greater risk of default than investment grade debt
      securities. Lower-grade debt securities may also be subject to greater
      market fluctuations and greater risks of loss of income and principal
      than investment-grade debt securities.


o     Interest Rate Risk. The values of debt securities are subject to change
      when prevailing interest rates change.  When prevailing interest rates
      fall, the values of already-issued debt securities generally rise.
      When prevailing interest rates rise, the values of already-issued debt
      securities generally fall, and they may sell at a discount from their
      face amount. The magnitude of these fluctuations will often be greater
      for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities.  The
      Fund's share prices can go up or down when interest rates change
      because of the effect of the changes on the value of the Fund's
      investments in debt securities.

Investing in Special Situations. At times the Fund might use aggressive
investment techniques. These might include seeking to benefit from what the
portfolio manager perceives to be "special situations", such as mergers,
reorganizations or other unusual events expected to affect a particular
issuer. However, there is a risk in investing in special situations that the
change or event might not occur, which could have a negative impact on the
price of the issuer's securities. The Fund's investment might not produce the
expected gains or could incur a loss for the portfolio.

Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies. The Fund can invest in small,
unseasoned companies. These are companies that have been in continuous
operation for less than three years, including the operations of any
predecessors. These securities may have limited liquidity (which means the
Fund may have difficulty selling them at an acceptable price when it wants
to) and their prices may be very volatile, especially in the short term.

Investing in Domestic Securities. The Fund does not expect to invest more
than 10% of its total assets under normal market conditions in securities of
U.S. issuers. However, it can hold common and preferred stocks of U.S.
companies as well as their debt securities, and can also invest in U.S.
corporate and government debt securities for defensive and liquidity
purposes.

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. Restricted securities may
have terms that limit their resale to other investors or may require
registration under applicable securities laws before they may be sold
publicly. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of its net assets in
illiquid or restricted securities. Certain restricted securities that are
eligible for resale to qualified institutional purchasers may not be 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 Fund can invest up to 25% of its net assets in
"derivative" investments to seek higher returns or to try to hedge investment
risks, although it does not currently use them to a significant degree. 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, exchange-traded options, futures
contracts, forward contracts and other hedging instruments the Fund might use
can be considered "derivative" investments. In addition to using derivatives
for hedging, the Fund might use other derivative investments because they
offer the potential for increased value, although it does not do so currently
to a significant degree.

o     Special Risks of Derivative Investments. Markets underlying securities
      and indices may move in a direction not anticipated by the Sub-Adviser.
      Interest rate and stock market changes in the U.S. and abroad may also
      influence the performance of derivatives. If the issuer of the
      derivative does not pay the amount due, the Fund can lose money on the
      investment. Also, the underlying security or investment on which the
      derivative is based, and the derivative itself, may not perform the way
      the Sub-Adviser expected it to perform. If that happens, the Fund's
      share price could decline. Certain derivative investments held by the
      Fund may be illiquid.

      The Fund has limits on the amount of particular types of derivatives it
      can hold. However, using derivatives can cause the Fund to lose money
      on its investments and/or increase the volatility of its share prices.
      As a result of these risks, the Fund could realize less principal or
      income from the investment than expected.

Hedging.  The Fund can buy and sell derivative instruments, such as futures
contracts, put and call options and forward contracts, in an effort to
protect the Fund from losses due to declines in the value of the Fund's
portfolio. The use of derivatives strategies for this purpose is frequently
referred to as "hedging." Underlying investments for these hedging
instruments may include securities, securities indices, currencies and other
derivative investments. The Fund has percentage limits on its use of hedging
instruments and is not required to use them in seeking its objective. The
Fund does not currently use hedging strategies to a significant degree.

There are special risks associated with the use of hedging instruments. For
example, options trading involves the payment of premiums and can increase
portfolio turnover. If a covered call written by the Fund is exercised on an
investment that has increased in value, the Fund will be required to sell the
investment at the call price and will not be able to realize any profit if
the investment has increased in value above the call price.


If the Sub-Adviser used a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judged
market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might fail and the strategy could
reduce the Fund's return. The Fund could also experience losses if the prices
of its futures and options positions were not correlated with its other
investments or if it could not close out a position because of an illiquid
market.


Investments By "Funds of Funds." The Fund's Board of Trustees has approved
making Class Y shares of the Fund available as an investment for certain
Oppenheimer funds that act as "funds of funds." Currently, no funds of funds
invest in shares of the Fund, but they may do so in the future. From time to
time those funds may invest significant portions of their assets in shares of
the Fund and their investments may represent a significant portion of the
Fund's outstanding shares or of its outstanding Class Y shares. The
Oppenheimer funds of funds typically use asset allocation strategies under
which they may increase or reduce the amount of their investment in the Fund
frequently, and may do so on a daily basis during volatile market conditions.
If the size of those purchases and redemptions of the Fund's shares were
significant relative to the size of the Fund's assets, the Fund could be
required to purchase or sell portfolio securities, increasing its transaction
costs and possibly reducing its performance for all share classes. For a
further discussion of potential effects of frequent trading in the Fund's
shares, please refer to the section titled "Are There Limitations on Frequent
Purchases, Redemptions and Exchanges?" in this prospectus.


Portfolio  Turnover.  Although the Fund seeks long-term capital  appreciation,
it may engage in active  and  frequent  trading  while  trying to achieve  its
objective,  and may have a high  portfolio  turnover rate (for  example,  over
100%).  Increased  portfolio turnover creates higher brokerage and transaction
costs  for the Fund (and may  reduce  performance).  Additionally,  securities
trading  can  cause  the  Fund  to  realize  gains  that  are  distributed  to
shareholders as taxable distributions.

Investments in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund can
invest its free cash balances in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional
Money Market Fund, to provide liquidity or for defensive purposes. The Fund
invests in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund rather than purchasing
individual short-term investments to try to seek a higher yield than it could
obtain on its own. Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund is a
registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money
market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended and is part
of the Oppenheimer Family of Funds. It invests in a variety of short-term,
high-quality, dollar-denominated money market instruments issued by the U.S.
Government, domestic and foreign corporations, other financial institutions,
and other entities. Those investments may have a higher rate of return than
the investments that would be available to the Fund directly. At the time of
an investment, the Manager cannot predict what the yield of the Oppenheimer
Institutional Money Market Fund will be because of the wide variety of
instruments that fund holds in its portfolio. The return on those investments
may, in some cases, be lower than the return that would have been derived
from other types of investments that would provide liquidity. As a
shareholder, the Fund will be subject to its proportional share of the
expenses of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund's Class E shares,
including its advisory fee. However, the Manager will waive a portion of the
Fund's advisory fee to the extent of the Fund's share of the advisory fee
paid to the Manager by Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund.

Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments.  For temporary defensive
purposes in times of adverse or unstable market, economic or political
conditions, the Fund can invest up to 100% of its assets in investments that
may be inconsistent with the Fund's principal investment strategies.
Generally the Fund would invest in shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money
Market Fund or in the types of money market instruments described above or in
other short-term U.S. Government securities. The Fund might also hold these
types of securities as interim investments pending the investment of proceeds
from the sale of Fund shares or the sale of Fund portfolio securities or to
meet anticipated redemptions of Fund shares. To the extent the Fund invests
in these securities, it might not achieve its investment objective.

PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS. The Fund's portfolio holdings are included in semi-annual
      and annual reports that are distributed to shareholders of the Fund
      within 60 days after the close of the period for which such report is
      being made. The Fund also discloses its portfolio holdings in its
      Statements of Investments on Form N-Q, which are filed with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 60 days after the
      close of its first and third fiscal quarters. These required filings
      are publicly available at the Securities and Exchange Commission.
      Therefore, portfolio holdings of the Fund are made publicly available
      no later than 60 days after the close of each of the Fund's fiscal
      quarters.

      A description of the Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the
      disclosure of the Fund's portfolio securities is available in the
      Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

How the Fund is Managed


THE MANAGER. The Manager handles the Fund's 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 adviser since 1960. The Manager and
its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates managed more than $250 billion in
assets as of June 30, 2007, including other Oppenheimer funds with more than
6 million shareholder accounts. The Manager is located at Two World Financial
Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1008.

Advisory Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the
      Manager an advisory fee at an annual rate that declines on additional
      assets as the Fund grows: 1.00% of the first $250 million, 0.95% of the
      next $250 million, 0.90% of the next $500 million, and 0.85% of average
      annual net assets over $1 billion.


The Sub-Adviser. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser, Baring Asset
      Management, Inc., to provide day-to-day portfolio management for the
      Fund. The Sub-Adviser has operated as an investment adviser since 1967.
      The Sub-Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of
      Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company ("MassMutual") of
      Springfield, Massachusetts, the parent company of the Manager, and is
      located at Independence Wharf, 470 Atlantic Avenue, Boston,
      Massachusetts 02210-2208. The Sub-Adviser is also an affiliate of
      Baring Asset Management Limited ("BAML") and Baring Asset Management
      (Japan) Limited ("BAMJ") (the Sub-Adviser together with BAMJ and BAML
      and its subsidiaries, the "BAM Group"). As of June 30, 2007, the BAM
      Group managed over $46.3 billion in assets on behalf of clients located
      around the world.


Sub-Advisory Fees. The Manager, not the Fund, pays the Sub-Adviser an annual
      fee under the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the
      Sub-Adviser. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the fee the Fund
      pays the Manager. The Manager will pay the Sub-Adviser a fee equal to
      40% of the investment management fee received by the Manager from the
      Fund.

      A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees' approval of
       the Fund's investment advisory and sub-advisory contracts is available
       in the Fund's Annual Report to shareholders for the fiscal period
       ended May 31, 2007.


Portfolio Manager. The Fund's portfolio is managed by Joji Maki, Toyokazu
      Kaneko and Atsushi Yamazaki, who are primarily responsible for the
      day-to-day management of the Fund's investments.

      Joji Maki, a Certified Management Accountant, is the Fund's lead
      portfolio manager and head of the BAM Group's Japan Equity team. Mr.
      Maki joined BAMJ in August 2000.  Mr. Maki also chairs the BAM Group's
      Japan Investment Team. Mr. Maki previously worked for Nikko Asset
      Management in Tokyo from 1987 to 2000, where he was head of its Equity
      Management Group.  Mr. Maki has been the lead portfolio manager since
      the Fund's inception.

      Toyokazu Kaneko, a Certified Management Accountant, is the Investment
      Manager of the Japan Equity Team. He is a member of the Consumer
      Staples, Consumer Discretionary, Energy & Materials, and Industrial
      global sector teams. He joined BAMJ in November 2006 from Nissay Asset
      Management, where he was an Investment Manager for three years. He has
      been a member of the portfolio management team of the Fund since it's
      inception.


      Atsushi Yamazaki, a Certified Management Accountant, is the Investment
      Manager of the Japan Equity Team. He joined BAMJ in August 2004, from
      DLIBJ Asset Management in Tokyo, where he was an Investment Manager for
      four years. Prior to that, he spent ten years at Nikko Asset
      Management. He has been a member of the portfolio management team of
      the Fund since it's inception.


       Additional information about the Fund's Portfolio Management Team,
      regarding compensation, other accounts managed and their ownership of
      Fund shares, is provided in the Statement of Additional Information.


ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

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. A broker or dealer may charge a processing fee for that
      service. Your account information will be shared with the dealer you
      designate as the dealer of record for the account.

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 do not list a dealer on the application, Class A
      shares are your only purchase option. The Distributor will act as your
      agent in buying Class A 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. Class B, Class C or Class
      N shares may not be purchased by a new investor directly from the
      Distributor without the investor designating another registered
      broker-dealer. If a current investor no longer has another
      broker-dealer of record for an existing Class B, Class C or Class N
      account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the
      broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the
      investor's agent to purchase the shares.

o     Paying by Federal Funds Wire. Shares purchased through the Distributor
      may be paid for by Federal Funds wire. The minimum wire purchase is
      $2,500. 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 can 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 share purchase instructions automatically,
      under an Asset Builder Plan, described below, or by telephone
      instructions using OppenheimerFunds PhoneLink, also described below.
      Please refer to "AccountLink," below for more details.
o     Buying Shares Through Asset Builder Plans. You may purchase shares of
      the Fund automatically from your account at a bank or other financial
      institution under an Asset Builder Plan with AccountLink. Details are
      in the Asset Builder application and the Statement of Additional
      Information.

   WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT YOU MUST INVEST? In most cases, you can buy
   Fund shares with a minimum initial investment of $1,000 and make
   additional investments at any time with as little as $50. There are
   reduced minimums available under the following special investment plans:

o     If you establish one of the many types of retirement plan accounts that
        OppenheimerFunds offers, more fully described below under "Special
        Investor Services," you can start your account with as little as
        $500.
o     By using an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic Exchange Plan (details are
        in the Statement of Additional Information), or government allotment
        plan, you can make an initial investment for as little as $500. The
        minimum subsequent investment is $50, except that for any account
        established under one of these plans prior to November 1, 2002, the
        minimum additional investment will remain $25.
o     A minimum initial investment of $250 applies to certain fee based
        programs that have an agreement with the Distributor. The minimum
        subsequent investment for those programs is $50.
o     The minimum investment requirement does not apply to reinvesting
        dividends from the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds (a list of them
        appears in the Statement of Additional Information, or you can ask
        your dealer or call the Transfer Agent), or reinvesting distributions
        from unit investment trusts that have made arrangements with the
        Distributor.


AT WHAT PRICE ARE SHARES SOLD? 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.  Your financial
advisor can provide you with more information regarding the time by which you
must submit your purchase order and whether the adviser is an authorized
agent for the receipt of purchase orders.


Net Asset Value. The Fund calculates the net asset value of each class of
      shares as of the close of the NYSE, on each day the NYSE is open for
      trading (referred to in this prospectus as a "regular business day").
      The NYSE normally closes at 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, but may close
      earlier on some days. All references to time in this prospectus are to
      "Eastern time."

      The net asset value per share for a class of shares on a "regular
      business day" is determined by dividing the value of the Fund's net
      assets attributable to that class by the number of shares of that class
      outstanding on that day. To determine net asset values, the Fund assets
      are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations. If
      market quotations are not readily available or do not accurately
      reflect fair value for a security (in the Manager's judgment) or if a
      security's value has been materially affected by events occurring after
      the close of the market on which the security is principally traded,
      that security may be valued by another method that the Board of
      Trustees believes accurately reflects the fair value. Because some
      foreign securities trade in markets and on exchanges that operate on
      weekends and U.S. holidays, the values of some of the Fund's foreign
      investments may change on days when investors cannot buy or redeem Fund
      shares.

      The Board has adopted valuation procedures for the Fund and has
      delegated the day-to-day responsibility for fair value determinations
      to the Manager's Valuation Committee. Fair value determinations by the
      Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Board
      at its next scheduled meeting after the fair valuations are determined.
      In determining whether current market prices are readily available and
      reliable, the Manager monitors the information it receives in the
      ordinary course of its investment management responsibilities for
      significant events that it believes in good faith will affect the
      market prices of the securities of issuers held by the Fund. Those may
      include events affecting specific issuers (for example, a halt in
      trading of the securities of an issuer on an exchange during the
      trading day) or events affecting securities markets (for example, a
      foreign securities market closes early because of a natural disaster).
      The Fund uses fair value pricing procedures to reflect what the Manager
      and the Board believe to be more accurate values for the Fund's
      portfolio securities, although it may not always be able to accurately
      determine such values. There can be no assurance that the Fund could
      obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the
      security at the same time at which the Fund determines its net asset
      value per share. In addition, the discussion of "time-zone arbitrage"
      describes effects that the Fund's fair value pricing policy is intended
      to counteract.

      If, after the close of the principal market on which a security held by
      the Fund is traded and before the time as of which the Fund's net asset
      values are calculated that day, an event occurs that the Manager learns
      of and believes in the exercise of its judgment will cause a material
      change in the value of that security from the closing price of the
      security on the principal market on which it is traded, the Manager
      will use its best judgment to determine a fair value for that security.


      The Manager believes that foreign securities' prices may be affected by
      volatility that occurs in U.S. markets on a trading day after the close
      of foreign securities markets. The Manager's fair valuation procedures
      therefore include a procedure whereby foreign securities' prices may be
      "fair valued" to take those factors into account.


The Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, the
      Distributor or its designated agent must receive your order, in proper
      form as described in this prospectus, by the time the NYSE closes that
      day. If your order is received on a day when the NYSE 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 an authorized dealer, your
      dealer must receive the order by the close of the NYSE for you to
      receive that day's offering price. If your order is received on a day
      when the NYSE is closed or after it is closed, the order will receive
      the next offering price that is determined.




------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT CLASSES OF SHARES DOES THE FUND OFFER? The Fund offers investors five
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 for regular accounts or lesser amounts
      for certain retirement plans). 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 6 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 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.
Class Y Shares. Class Y shares are offered only to certain institutional
      investors that have a special agreement with the Distributor.


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. If your
goals and objectives change over time and you plan to purchase additional
shares, 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.
Because of the effect of class-based expenses, your choice will also depend
on how much you plan to invest. For example, the reduced sales charges
available for larger purchases of Class A shares may, over time, offset the
effect of paying an initial sales charge on your investment, compared to the
effect over time of higher class-based expenses on shares of Class B, Class C
or Class N. 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.
   o  Investing for the Shorter Term. While the Fund is meant to be a
      long-term investment, if you have a relatively short-term investment
      horizon (that is, you plan to hold your shares for not more than six
      years), you should most likely invest in Class A or Class C shares
      rather than Class B shares. That is because of the effect of the Class
      B contingent deferred sales charge if you redeem within six years, as
      well as the effect of the Class B asset-based sales charge on the
      investment return for that class in the short-term. Class C shares
      might be the appropriate choice (especially for investments of less
      than $100,000), because there is no initial sales charge on Class C
      shares, and the contingent deferred sales charge does not apply to
      amounts you sell after holding them one year.

      However, if you plan to invest more than $100,000 for the shorter term,
      then as your investment horizon increases toward six years, Class C
      shares might not be as advantageous as Class A shares. That is because
      the annual asset-based sales charge on Class C shares will have a
      greater impact on your account over the longer term than the reduced
      front-end sales charge available for larger purchases of Class A
      shares.

      If you 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. The Distributor normally will not accept purchase orders
      of more than $100,000 of Class B shares or $1 million or more of Class
      C shares from a single investor. Dealers or other financial
      intermediaries purchasing shares for their customers in omnibus
      accounts are responsible for compliance with those limits.

o     Investing for the Longer Term.  If you are investing  less than $100,000
      for the  longer-term,  for example for retirement,  and do not expect to
      need  access to your money for seven  years or more,  Class B shares may
      be 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 or Class Y shares, such as the
      Class B, Class C and Class N asset-based sales charge described below
      and in the Statement of Additional Information.


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 held by the dealer or financial
      institution for its own account or for its customers.


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   Concession As a
                                           Charge As a

Due to rounding,  the actual sales charge for a particular  transaction may be
higher or lower than the rates listed above.

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.

CAN YOU REDUCE CLASS A SALES CHARGES? You and your spouse may be eligible to
buy Class A shares of the Fund at reduced sales charge rates set forth in the
table above under the Fund's "Right of Accumulation" or a "Letter of Intent."
The Fund reserves the right to modify or to cease offering these programs at
any time.

o     Right of Accumulation. To qualify for the reduced Class A sales charge
         that would apply to a larger purchase than you are currently making
         (as shown in the table above), you can add the value of any Class A,
         Class B or, Class C shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds
         that you or your spouse currently own, or are currently purchasing,
         to the value of your Class A share purchase. Your Class A shares of
         Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on
         which you have not paid a sales charge will not be counted for this
         purpose. In totaling your holdings, you may count shares held in
         your individual accounts (including IRAs and 403(b) plans), your
         joint accounts with your spouse, or accounts you or your spouse hold
         as trustees or custodians on behalf of your children who are minors.
         A fiduciary can count all shares purchased for a trust, estate or
         other fiduciary account that has multiple accounts (including
         employee benefit plans for the same employer). If you are buying
         shares directly from the Fund, you must inform the Distributor of
         your eligibility and holdings at the time of your purchase in order
         to qualify for the Right of Accumulation. If you are buying shares
         through your financial intermediary you must notify your
         intermediary of your eligibility for the Right of Accumulation at
         the time of your purchase.

            To count shares of eligible  Oppenheimer funds held in accounts at
         other  intermediaries  under this Right of  Accumulation,  you may be
         requested to provide the  Distributor  or your  current  intermediary
         with a copy of all account  statements  showing your current holdings
         of  the  Fund  or  other  eligible   Oppenheimer   funds,   including
         statements  for accounts held by you and your spouse or in retirement
         plans or trust or custodial  accounts for minor children as described
         above.  The Distributor or intermediary  through which you are buying
         shares will  calculate  the value of your eligible  Oppenheimer  fund
         shares,  based on the current  offering  price,  to  determine  which
         Class A sales charge rate you qualify for on your current purchase.

o     Letters of Intent. You may also qualify for reduced Class A sales
         charges by submitting a Letter of Intent to the Distributor. A
         Letter of Intent is a written statement of your intention to
         purchase a specified value of Class A, Class B or Class C shares of
         the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds over a 13-month period. The
         total amount of your intended purchases of Class A, Class B and
         Class C shares will determine the reduced sales charge rate that
         will apply to your Class A share purchases of the Fund during that
         period. Purchases made up to 90 days before the date that you submit
         a Letter of Intent will be included in that determination. Your
         Class N shares, and any Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market
         Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on which you have not paid a
         sales charge, will not be counted for this purpose.  Submitting a
         Letter of Intent does not obligate you to purchase the specified
         amount of shares. You may also be able to apply the Right of
         Accumulation to these purchases.

            If you do not complete the purchases outlined in the Letter of
         Intent, the front-end sales charge you paid on your purchases will
         be recalculated to reflect the actual value of shares you purchased.
         A certain portion of your shares will be held in escrow by the
         Fund's Transfer Agent for this purpose. Please refer to "How to Buy
         Shares - Letters of Intent" in the Fund's Statement of Additional
         Information for more complete information.

Other Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers. The Fund and the
Distributor offer other opportunities to purchase shares without front-end or
contingent deferred sales charges under the programs described below. The
Fund reserves the right to amend or discontinue these programs at any time
without prior notice.
o     Dividend Reinvestment. Dividends and/or capital gains distributions
         received by a shareholder from the Fund may be reinvested in shares
         of the Fund or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which shares
         of the Fund may be exchanged without a sales charge, at the net
         asset value per share in effect on the payable date. You must notify
         the Transfer Agent in writing to elect this option and must have an
         existing account in the fund selected for reinvestment.
o     Exchanges of Shares. Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of
         certain other Oppenheimer funds at net asset value per share at the
         time of exchange, without sales charge, and shares of the Fund can
         be purchased by exchange of shares of certain other Oppenheimer
         funds on the same basis. Please refer to "How to Exchange Shares" in
         this prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information for
         more details, including a discussion of circumstances in which sales
         charges may apply on exchanges.
o     Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months of a redemption of certain
         Class A and Class B shares, the proceeds may be reinvested in Class
         A shares of the Fund, or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into
         which shares of the Fund may be exchanged, without a sales charge.
         This privilege applies to redemptions of Class A shares that were
         subject to an initial sales charge or Class A or Class B shares that
         were subject to a contingent deferred sales charge when redeemed.
         The investor must ask the Transfer Agent or his or her financial
         intermediary for that privilege at the time of reinvestment and must
         identify the account from which the redemption was made.
o     Other Special Reductions and Waivers. The Fund and the Distributor
         offer additional arrangements to reduce or eliminate front-end sales
         charges or to waive contingent deferred sales charges for certain
         types of transactions and for certain categories of investors
         (primarily retirement plans that purchase shares in special programs
         through the Distributor). These are described in greater detail in
         Appendix B to the Statement of Additional Information. The Fund's
         Statement of Additional Information may be ordered by calling
         1.800.225.5677 or may be accessed through the OppenheimerFunds
         website, at www.oppenheimerfunds.com (under the heading "I Want To,"
         follow the hyperlink "Access Fund Documents" and click on the icon
         in the column "SAI" next to the Fund's name). A description of these
         waivers and special sales charge arrangements is also available for
         viewing on the OppenheimerFunds website (under the heading "Fund
         Information," click on the hyperlink "Sales Charge Waivers"). To
         receive a waiver or special sales charge rate under these programs,
         the purchaser must notify the Distributor (or other financial
         intermediary through which shares are being purchased) at the time
         of purchase, or must notify the Transfer Agent at the time of
         redeeming shares for waivers that apply to contingent deferred sales
         charges.


Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. There is no initial sales charge on
Class A share purchases totaling $1 million or more of one or more of the
Oppenheimer funds. However, those Class A shares may be subject to a 1.0%
contingent deferred sales charge if they are redeemed within an 18 month
"holding period" measured from the beginning of the calendar month of their
purchase (except for shares in certain retirement plans, described below).
That sales charge will be calculated on the lesser of the original net asset
value of the redeemed shares or the aggregate net asset value of the redeemed
shares at the time of redemption.


The Class A contingent deferred sales charge does not apply to shares
purchased by the reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions and
will not exceed the aggregate amount of the concessions the Distributor pays
on all of your purchases of Class A shares, of all Oppenheimer funds, that
are subject to the contingent deferred sales charge.

The Distributor pays concessions from its own resources equal to 1.0% of
Class A purchases of $1 million or more (other than purchases by certain
retirement plans). The concession will not be paid on shares purchased by
exchange or shares that were previously subject to a front-end sales charge
and dealer concession.

o     Class A Purchases by Certain Retirement Plans. There is no initial
         sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of the Fund by
         retirement plans that have $1 million or more in plan assets. There
         is also no contingent deferred sales charge on any group retirement
         plan shares purchased after March 1, 2007.


         Until March 1, 2007, the Distributor paid a concession from its own
         resources on purchases by certain group retirement plans that were
         established prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement
         plans"). Shares purchased in grandfathered retirement plans prior to
         March 1, 2007 will continue to be subject to the contingent deferred
         sales charge if they are redeemed within 18 months after purchase.
         Beginning March 1, 2007, the Distributor will not pay a concession
         on new share purchases by retirement plans (except plans that have
         $5 million or more in plan assets) and no new group retirement plan
         purchases will be subject to the contingent deferred sales charge,
         including purchases in grandfathered retirement plans. For shares
         purchased prior to March 1, 2007, the concession for grandfathered
         retirement plans was 0.75% of the first $2.5 million of purchases
         plus 0.25% of purchases in excess of $2.5 million. Effective March
         1, 2007, the concession for grandfathered retirement accounts is
         0.25%.


HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS B SHARES? Class B shares are sold at net asset value
per share without an initial sales charge. However, 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%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 72 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.

      Class N shares are sold at net asset value without an initial sales
charge. 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.

WHO CAN BUY CLASS Y SHARES? Class Y shares are sold at net asset value per
share without a sales charge directly to institutional investors that have
special agreements with the Distributor for this purpose. They may include
insurance companies, registered investment companies, employee benefit plans
and Section 529 plans, among others. Individual investors cannot buy Class Y
shares directly.

      An institutional investor that buys Class Y shares for its customers'
accounts may impose charges on those 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 at their Colorado office) and the special account features
available to investors buying those other classes of shares do not apply to
Class Y shares. Instructions for buying, selling, exchanging or transferring
Class Y shares must be submitted by the institutional investor, not by its
customers 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 that reimburses the Distributor for a portion of the
       costs of providing services to Class A shareholder accounts. The Fund
       makes these payments quarterly, based on 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 for providing personal service
       and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A
       shares.

      Prior to March 1, 2007, the Distributor paid the first year's service
      fee in advance for shares purchased in grandfathered retirement plans
      and it retained the service fee from the Fund with respect to those
      shares during the first year after their purchase. After the shares
      were held by a grandfathered retirement plan for a year, the
      Distributor paid the ongoing service fee to the dealer of record on a
      periodic basis. For shares purchased in grandfathered plans on or after
      March 1, 2007, the Distributor does not make any payment in advance and
      does not retain the service fee for the first year.


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 normally 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 periodically.

      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 normally 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.
      The Distributor normally retains the asset-based sales charge on Class
      C shares during the first year after the purchase of Class C shares.
      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
      normally retains the asset-based sales charge on Class N shares. See
      the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

      For certain group retirement plans held in omnibus accounts, the
      Distributor may pay the full Class C or Class N asset-based sales
      charge and the service fee to the dealer beginning in the first year
      after the purchase of such shares in lieu of paying the dealer the
      sales concession and the advance of the first year's service fee at the
      time of purchase. New group omnibus plans may not purchase Class B
      shares.

      For Class C shares purchased through the OppenheimerFunds
      Record(k)eeper Pro program, the Distributor will pay the Class C
      asset-based sales charge to the dealer of record in the first year
      after the purchase of such shares in lieu of paying the dealer a sales
      concession at the time of purchase. The Distributor will use the
      service fee it receives from the Fund on those shares to reimburse
      FASCore, LLC for providing personal services to the Class C accounts
      holding those shares.

OTHER PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS. The Manager
and the Distributor, in their discretion, also may pay dealers or other
financial intermediaries and service providers for distribution and/or
shareholder servicing activities. These payments are made out of the
Manager's and/or the Distributor's own resources, including from the profits
derived from the advisory fees the Manager receives from the Fund. These cash
payments, which may be substantial, are paid to many firms having business
relationships with the Manager and Distributor. These payments are in
addition to any distribution fees, servicing fees, or transfer agency fees
paid directly or indirectly by the Fund to these financial intermediaries and
any commissions the Distributor pays to these firms out of the sales charges
paid by investors. These payments by the Manager or Distributor from their
own resources are not reflected in the tables in the section called "Fees and
Expenses of the Fund" in this prospectus because they are not paid by the
Fund.

     "Financial intermediaries" are firms that offer and sell Fund shares to
their clients, or provide shareholder services to the Fund, or both, and
receive compensation for doing so. Your securities dealer or financial
advisor, for example, is a financial intermediary, and there are other types
of financial intermediaries that receive payments relating to the sale or
servicing of the Fund's shares. In addition to dealers, the financial
intermediaries that may receive payments include sponsors of fund
"supermarkets," sponsors of fee-based advisory or wrap fee programs, sponsors
of college and retirement savings programs, banks and trust companies
offering products that hold Fund shares, and insurance companies that offer
variable annuity or variable life insurance products.

     In general, these payments to financial intermediaries can be
categorized as "distribution-related" or "servicing" payments. Payments for
distribution-related expenses, such as marketing or promotional expenses, are
often referred to as "revenue sharing." Revenue sharing payments may be made
on the basis of the sales of shares attributable to that dealer, the average
net assets of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds attributable to the
accounts of that dealer and its clients, negotiated lump sum payments for
distribution services provided, or sales support fees. In some circumstances,
revenue sharing payments may create an incentive for a dealer or financial
intermediary or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Fund
or other Oppenheimer funds to its customers. These payments also may give an
intermediary an incentive to cooperate with the Distributor's marketing
efforts. A revenue sharing payment may, for example, qualify the Fund for
preferred status with the intermediary receiving the payment or provide
representatives of the Distributor with access to representatives of the
intermediary's sales force, in some cases on a preferential basis over funds
of competitors. Additionally, as firm support, the Manager or Distributor may
reimburse expenses related to educational seminars and "due diligence" or
training meetings (to the extent permitted by applicable laws or the rules of
the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), formerly known as the
NASD) designed to increase sales representatives' awareness about Oppenheimer
funds, including travel and lodging expenditures. However, the Manager does
not consider a financial intermediary's sale of shares of the Fund or other
Oppenheimer funds when selecting brokers or dealers to effect portfolio
transactions for the funds.

     Various factors are used to determine whether to make revenue sharing
payments. Possible considerations include, without limitation, the types of
services provided by the intermediary, sales of Fund shares, the redemption
rates on accounts of clients of the intermediary or overall asset levels of
Oppenheimer funds held for or by clients of the intermediary, the willingness
of the intermediary to allow the Distributor to provide educational and
training support for the intermediary's sales personnel relating to the
Oppenheimer funds, the availability of the Oppenheimer funds on the
intermediary's sales system, as well as the overall quality of the services
provided by the intermediary and the Manager or Distributor's relationship
with the intermediary. The Manager and Distributor have adopted guidelines
for assessing and implementing each prospective revenue sharing arrangement.
To the extent that financial intermediaries receiving distribution-related
payments from the Manager or Distributor sell more shares of the Oppenheimer
funds or retain more shares of the funds in their client accounts, the
Manager and Distributor benefit from the incremental management and other
fees they receive with respect to those assets.

     Payments may also be made by the Manager, the Distributor or the
Transfer Agent to financial intermediaries to compensate or reimburse them
for administrative or other client services provided such as sub-transfer
agency services for shareholders or retirement plan participants, omnibus
accounting or sub-accounting, participation in networking arrangements,
account set-up, recordkeeping and other shareholder services. Payments may
also be made for administrative services related to the distribution of Fund
shares through the intermediary. Firms that may receive servicing fees
include retirement plan administrators, qualified tuition program sponsors,
banks and trust companies, and others. These fees may be used by the service
provider to offset or reduce fees that would otherwise be paid directly to
them by certain account holders, such as retirement plans.

     The Statement of Additional Information contains more information about
revenue sharing and service payments made by the Manager or the Distributor.
Your dealer may charge you fees or commissions in addition to those disclosed
in this prospectus. You should ask your dealer or financial intermediary for
details about any such payments it receives from the Manager or the
Distributor and their affiliates, or any other fees or expenses it charges.

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.
Your shares will be sold at the next net asset value calculated after your
order is received by the Distributor or your authorized financial
intermediary, in proper form (which means that it must comply with the
procedures described below) and is accepted by the Transfer Agent. The Fund
lets you sell your shares by writing a letter, by wire, or by telephone, less
any applicable contingent deferred sales charges or redemption fee. You can
also set up Automatic Withdrawal Plans to redeem shares on a regular basis.
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 Fee. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on the proceeds of
Fund shares that are redeemed within 30 days of their purchase. The fee also
applies in the case of shares redeemed in exchange transactions. The
redemption fee is collected by the Transfer Agent and paid to the Fund. It is
intended to help offset the trading, market impact, and administrative costs
associated with short-term money movements into and out of the Fund, and to
help deter excessive short term trading. The fee is imposed to the extent
that Fund shares redeemed exceed Fund shares that have been held more than 30
days. For shares of the Fund that were acquired by exchange, the holding
period is measured from the date the shares were acquired in the exchange
transaction. Shares held the longest will be redeemed first.

      The redemption fee is not imposed on shares:


o     held in omnibus accounts of certain financial intermediaries, such as a
            broker-dealer or a retirement plan fiduciary if those
            institutions have not implemented the system changes necessary to
            be capable of processing the redemption fee. However, account
            holders whose investments in the Fund are held in omnibus
            accounts through certain other financial intermediaries may be
            subject to the redemption fee on terms that are generally in
            accordance with the redemption fee terms in this prospectus but
            that may differ in certain details. For certain retirement plans
            treated as omnibus accounts by the Fund's Transfer Agent, the
            redemption fee may be charged on participant initiated exchanges
            or redemptions. Shares held in retirement plans that are not in
            omnibus accounts, such as Oppenheimer-sponsored retirement plans,
            IRAs, and 403(b)(7) plans are also subject to the redemption fee.
            The redemption fee is not assessed on shares that are:

o     held by investors in certain asset allocation programs that offer
            automatic re-balancing or wrap-fee or similar fee-based programs
            and that have been identified to the Distributor and the Transfer
            Agent;
o     redeemed for rebalancing transactions under the OppenheimerFunds
            Portfolio Builder program;
o     redeemed pursuant to an OppenheimerFunds automatic withdrawal plan;
o     redeemed due to the death or disability of the shareholder;
o     redeemed as part of an automatic dividend exchange election established
            in advance of the exchange;
o     redeemed to pay fees assessed by the Fund or the Transfer Agent against
            the account;
o     redeemed from accounts for which the dealer, broker or financial
            institution of record has entered into an agreement with the
            Distributor that permits such redemptions without the imposition
            of these fees, such as asset allocation programs;
o     redeemed for conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares or pursuant
            to fund mergers; and
o     involuntary redemptions resulting from failure to meet account minimums.


You should consult with your financial intermediary or retirement plan
provider for more details on this redemption fee


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.

Receiving 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 NYSE that day, which is
normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, but may be earlier on some days. You may not
redeem shares held in an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored qualified retirement plan
account or under a share certificate 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 a  processing  fee 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 or your
financial intermediary 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 you acquire 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.


How to Exchange Shares

If you want to change all or part of your investment from one Oppenheimer
fund to another, you can exchange your shares for shares of the same class of
another Oppenheimer fund that offers the exchange privilege. For example, you
can exchange Class A shares of the Fund only for Class A shares of another
fund. 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 selected fund must offer the exchange privilege.
   o  When you establish an account, you must hold the shares you buy for at
      least seven days before you can exchange them. After your account is
      open for seven days, you can exchange shares on any regular business
      day, subject to the limitations described below.
   o  You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the selected fund.
   o  Generally, exchanges may be made only between identically registered
      accounts, unless all account owners send written exchange instructions
      with a signature guarantee.
   o  Before exchanging into a fund, you must obtain its prospectus and
      should read it carefully.

      For tax purposes, an exchange of shares of the Fund is considered a
sale of those shares and a purchase of the shares of the fund into which you
are exchanging. An exchange may result in a capital gain or loss.

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

A contingent  deferred  sales  charge  (CDSC) is not charged when you exchange
shares of the Fund for shares of another  Oppenheimer  fund.  However,  if you
exchange your shares during the applicable  CDSC holding  period,  the holding
period will carry over to the fund shares that you acquire.  Similarly, if you
acquire shares of the Fund in exchange for shares of another  Oppenheimer fund
that are subject to a CDSC  holding  period,  that  holding  period will carry
over to the  acquired  shares of the Fund.  In either of these  situations,  a
CDSC may be imposed if the acquired  shares are redeemed before the end of the
CDSC holding period that applied to the exchanged shares.

There are a number of other special  conditions and limitations  that apply to
certain types of exchanges.  These conditions and  circumstances are described
in  detail  in the  "How to  Exchange  Shares"  section  in the  Statement  of
Additional Information.

HOW DO YOU SUBMIT EXCHANGE REQUESTS? Exchanges may be requested in writing,
by telephone or internet, or by establishing an Automatic Exchange Plan.

Written Exchange Requests. Send a request letter, signed by all owners of the
      account, to the Transfer Agent at the address on the back cover.
      Exchanges of shares for which share certificates have been issued
      cannot be processed unless the Transfer Agent receives the certificates
      with the request letter.

Telephone and Internet Exchange Requests. Telephone exchange requests may be
      made either by calling a service representative or by using PhoneLink
      by calling 1.800.225.5677. You may submit internet exchange requests on
      the OppenheimerFunds internet website, at www.oppenheimerfunds.com. You
      must have obtained a user I.D. and password to make transactions on
      that website. Telephone and/or internet exchanges may be made only
      between accounts that are registered with the same name(s) and address.
      Shares for which share certificates have been issued may not be
      exchanged by telephone or the internet.

Automatic Exchange Plan. Shareholders can authorize the Transfer Agent to
      exchange a pre-determined amount of shares automatically on a monthly,
      quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis.

Please refer to "How to Exchange Shares" in the Statement of Additional
Information for more details.

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON FREQUENT PURCHASES, REDEMPTIONS AND EXCHANGES?


Risks from Excessive Purchase, Redemption and Short-Term Exchange Activity.
The OppenheimerFunds exchange privilege affords investors the ability to
switch their investments among Oppenheimer funds if their investment needs
change. However, there are limits on that privilege. Frequent purchases,
redemptions and exchanges of Fund shares may interfere with the sub-adviser's
ability to manage the Fund's investments efficiently, increase the Fund's
transaction and administrative costs and/or affect the Fund's performance,
depending on various factors, such as the size of the Fund, the nature of its
investments, the amount of Fund assets the portfolio manager maintains in
cash or cash equivalents, the aggregate dollar amount and the number and
frequency of trades. If large dollar amounts are involved in exchange and/or
redemption transactions, the Fund might be required to sell portfolio
securities at unfavorable times to meet redemption or exchange requests, and
the Fund's brokerage or administrative expenses might be increased.


Therefore, the Manager and the Fund's Board of Trustees have adopted the
following policies and procedures to detect and prevent frequent and/or
excessive exchanges, and/or purchase and redemption activity, while balancing
the needs of investors who seek liquidity from their investment and the
ability to exchange shares as investment needs change. There is no guarantee
that the policies and procedures described below will be sufficient to
identify and deter excessive short-term trading.

o     Timing of Exchanges. Exchanged shares are normally redeemed from one
      fund and the proceeds are reinvested in the fund selected for exchange
      on the same regular business day on which the Transfer Agent or its
      agent (such as a financial intermediary holding the investor's shares
      in an "omnibus" or "street name" account) receives an exchange request
      that conforms to these policies. The request must be received by the
      close of the NYSE that day, which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time,
      but may be earlier on some days, in order to receive that day's net
      asset value on the exchanged shares. Exchange requests received after
      the close of the NYSE will receive the next net asset value calculated
      after the request is received. However, the Transfer Agent may delay
      transmitting the proceeds from an exchange for up to five business days
      if it determines, in its discretion, that an earlier transmittal of the
      redemption proceeds to the receiving fund would be detrimental to
      either the fund from which the exchange is being made or the fund into
      which the exchange is being made. The proceeds will be invested in the
      fund into which the exchange is being made at the next net asset value
      calculated after the proceeds are received. In the event that such a
      delay in the reinvestment of proceeds occurs, the Transfer Agent will
      notify you or your financial representative.

o     Limits on Disruptive Activity. The Transfer Agent may, in its
      discretion, limit or terminate trading activity by any person, group or
      account that it believes would be disruptive, even if the activity has
      not exceeded the policy outlined in this prospectus. The Transfer Agent
      may review and consider the history of frequent trading activity in all
      accounts in the Oppenheimer funds known to be under common ownership or
      control as part of the Transfer Agent's procedures to detect and deter
      excessive trading activity.


o     Exchanges of Client Accounts by Financial advisors. The Fund and the
      Transfer Agent permit dealers and financial intermediaries to submit
      exchange requests on behalf of their customers (unless that authority
      has been revoked). A fund or the Transfer Agent may limit or refuse
      exchange requests submitted by financial intermediaries if, in the
      Transfer Agent's judgment, exercised in its discretion, the exchanges
      would be disruptive to any of the funds involved in the transaction.


o     Redemptions of Shares. These exchange policy limits do not apply to
      redemptions of shares. Shareholders are permitted to redeem their
      shares on any regular business day, subject to the terms of this
      prospectus. The Fund assesses a 2% fee on the proceeds of Fund shares
      that are redeemed or exchanged within 30 days after their purchase in
      certain circumstances. Further details are provided under "How to Sell
      Shares."

o     Right to Refuse Exchange and Purchase Orders. The Distributor and/or
      the Transfer Agent may refuse any purchase or exchange order in their
      discretion and are not obligated to provide notice before rejecting an
      order. The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege
      at any time. You will receive 60 days' notice of any material change in
      the exchange privilege unless applicable law allows otherwise.

o     Right to Terminate or Suspend Account Privileges. The Transfer Agent
      may send a written warning to direct shareholders that the Transfer
      Agent believes may be engaging in excessive purchases, redemptions
      and/or exchange activity and reserves the right to suspend or terminate
      the ability to purchase shares and/or exchange privileges for any
      account that the Transfer Agent determines, in carrying out these
      policies and in the exercise of its discretion, has engaged in
      disruptive or excessive trading activity, with or without such warning.

o     Omnibus Accounts. If you hold your shares of the Fund through a
      financial intermediary such as a broker-dealer, a bank, an insurance
      company separate account, an investment adviser, an administrator or
      trustee of a retirement plan or 529 plan, that holds your shares in an
      account under its name (these are sometimes referred to as "omnibus" or
      "street name" accounts), that financial intermediary may impose its own
      restrictions or limitations to discourage short-term or excessive
      trading. You should consult your financial intermediary to find out
      what trading restrictions, including limitations on exchanges, may
      apply.

While the Fund, the Distributor, the Manager and the Transfer Agent encourage
financial intermediaries to apply the Fund's policies to their customers who
invest indirectly in the Fund, the Transfer Agent may not be able to detect
excessive short term trading activity facilitated by, or in accounts
maintained in, the "omnibus" or "street name" accounts of a financial
intermediary. Therefore the Transfer Agent might not be able to apply this
policy to accounts such as (a) accounts held in omnibus form in the name of a
broker-dealer or other financial institution, or (b) omnibus accounts held in
the name of a retirement plan or 529 plan trustee or administrator, or (c)
accounts held in the name of an insurance company for its separate
account(s), or (d) other accounts having multiple underlying owners but
registered in a manner such that the underlying beneficial owners are not
identified to the Transfer Agent.

However, the Transfer Agent will attempt to monitor overall purchase and
redemption activity in those accounts to seek to identify patterns that may
suggest excessive trading by the underlying owners. If evidence of possible
excessive trading activity is observed by the Transfer Agent, the financial
intermediary that is the registered owner will be asked to review account
activity, and to confirm to the Transfer Agent and the Fund that appropriate
action has been taken to curtail any excessive trading activity. However, the
Transfer Agent's ability to monitor and deter excessive short-term trading in
omnibus or street name accounts ultimately depends on the capability and
cooperation of the financial intermediaries controlling those accounts.

Additional Policies and Procedures. The Fund's Board has adopted the
following additional policies and procedures to detect and prevent frequent
and/or excessive exchanges and purchase and redemption activity:

o     30-Day Limit. A direct shareholder may exchange some or all of the
      shares of the Fund held in his or her account to another eligible
      Oppenheimer fund once in a 30 calendar-day period. When shares are
      exchanged into a fund account, that account will be "blocked" from
      further exchanges into another fund for a period of 30 calendar days
      from the date of the exchange. The block will apply to the full account
      balance and not just to the amount exchanged into the account. For
      example, if a shareholder exchanged $1,000 from one fund into another
      fund in which the shareholder already owned shares worth $10,000, then,
      following the exchange, the full account balance ($11,000 in this
      example) would be blocked from further exchanges into another fund for
      a period of 30 calendar days. A "direct shareholder" is one whose
      account is registered on the Fund's books showing the name, address and
      tax ID number of the beneficial owner.

o     Exchanges Into Money Market Funds. A direct shareholder will be
      permitted to exchange shares of a stock or bond fund for shares of a
      money market fund that offers an exchange privilege at any time, even
      if the shareholder has exchanged shares into the stock or bond fund
      during the prior 30 days. However, all of the shares held in that money
      market fund would then be blocked from further exchanges into another
      fund for 30 calendar days.

o     Dividend Reinvestments/B Share Conversions. Reinvestment of dividends
      or distributions from one fund to purchase shares of another fund and
      the conversion of Class B shares into Class A shares will not be
      considered exchanges for purposes of imposing the 30-day limit.

o     Asset Allocation. Third-party asset allocation and rebalancing programs
      will be subject to the 30-day limit described above. Asset allocation
      firms that want to exchange shares held in accounts on behalf of their
      customers must identify themselves to the Transfer Agent and execute an
      acknowledgement and agreement to abide by these policies with respect
      to their customers' accounts. "On-demand" exchanges outside the
      parameters of portfolio rebalancing programs will be subject to the
      30-day limit. However, investment programs by other Oppenheimer
      "funds-of-funds" that entail rebalancing of investments in underlying
      Oppenheimer funds will not be subject to these limits.

o     Automatic Exchange Plans. Accounts that receive exchange proceeds
      through automatic or systematic exchange plans that are established
      through the Transfer Agent will not be subject to the 30-day block as a
      result of those automatic or systematic exchanges (but may be blocked
      from exchanges, under the 30-day limit, if they receive proceeds from
      other exchanges).


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 "Minimum Balance Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a
      value of less than $500. The fee is automatically deducted from each
      applicable Fund account annually in September. See the Statement of
      Additional Information to learn how you can avoid this fee and for
      circumstances under which this fee will not be assessed.
The offering of shares may be suspended during any period in which the
      determination of net asset value is suspended, and the offering may be
      suspended by the Board of Trustees at any time the Board believes it is
      in the Fund's best interest to do so.
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. The redemption value of your shares may be more
      or less than their original cost.
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.
Involuntary redemptions of small accounts may be made by the Fund if the
      account value has fallen below $200 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 the Fund redeems your shares in kind, you may
      bear transaction costs and will bear market risks until such time as
      such securities are converted into cash.
Federal regulations may require the Fund to obtain your name, your date of
      birth (for a natural person), your residential street address or
      principal place of business and your Social Security Number, Employer
      Identification Number or other government issued identification when
      you open an account. Additional information may be required in certain
      circumstances or to open corporate accounts. The Fund or the Transfer
      Agent may use this information to attempt to verify your identity. The
      Fund may not be able to establish an account if the necessary
      information is not received. The Fund may also place limits on account
      transactions while it is in the process of attempting to verify your
      identity. Additionally, if the Fund is unable to verify your identity
      after your account is established, the Fund may be required to redeem
      your shares and close your account.
"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 and pay dividends separately for each
class of shares from net investment income on an annual basis. Dividends and
distributions paid to Class A and Class Y shares will generally be higher
than dividends for Class B, Class C and Class N shares, which normally have
higher expenses than Class A and Class Y shares. 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 annually. 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 DO YOU HAVE FOR RECEIVING DISTRIBUTIONS? When you open your
account, specify on your application how you want to receive your dividends
and distributions. You have four options:
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 AccountLink.
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.

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.

      If more than 50% of the Fund's assets are invested in foreign
securities at the end of any fiscal year, the Fund may elect under the
Internal Revenue Code to permit shareholders to take a credit or deduction on
their federal income tax returns for foreign taxes paid by the Fund.

      Every year the Fund will send you and the Internal Revenue Service 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.

      The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment
company" under the Internal Revenue Code, but reserves the right not to
qualify. It qualified during its last fiscal year. The Fund, as a regulated
investment company, will not be subject to federal income taxes on any of its
income, provided that it satisfies certain income, diversification and
distribution requirements.

Avoid "Buying a Distribution." If you buy shares on or just before the
      ex-dividend date, or just before the Fund declares a capital gains
      distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and then
      receive a portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or capital
      gain.
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.

      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.

Financial Highlights

The Financial Highlights Table is presented to help you understand the Fund's

ABOUT THE FUND

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 ("SAI") contains supplemental information about those
policies and risks and the types of securities that the portfolio manager,
can select for the Fund. Additional information is also provided about the
strategies that the Fund may 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 portfolio manager, who is
employed by Baring Asset Management, Inc. (the "Sub-Adviser"), may use in
selecting portfolio securities will vary over time. The Fund is not required
to use the investment techniques and strategies described below in seeking
its objective. It may use some of the special investment techniques and
strategies at some times or not at all.


      |X|   Investments in Stocks and Other Equity Securities. The Fund
focuses its investments in common stocks of foreign growth companies, but it
can invest in other equity securities. Equity securities include common
stocks, preferred stocks, rights and warrants, and securities convertible
into common stock.

      Current income is not a criterion used to select portfolio securities.
However, certain debt securities can be selected for the Fund's portfolio for
defensive purposes. The Fund can also buy debt securities that the
Sub-Adviser believes might offer some opportunities for capital appreciation
when stocks are disfavored, including convertible securities as discussed
below.

      Securities of newer growth companies might offer greater opportunities
for capital appreciation than securities of large, more established
companies. However, these securities also involve greater risks than
securities of more established companies.


      The Fund does not limit its investments in equity securities to issuers
having a market capitalization of a specified size or range, and therefore
may invest in securities of small-, mid- and large-capitalization issuers. At
times, the Fund may have substantial amounts of its assets invested in
securities of issuers in one or more capitalization ranges, based upon the
Sub-Adviser's applying the Fund's investment strategies and its judgment of
where the best market opportunities are to seek the 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 Fund has substantial investments in
smaller capitalization companies at times of market volatility, the Fund's
share price may fluctuate more than that of funds focusing on larger
capitalization issuers.


       |X|  Growth Companies. Growth companies are those companies that the
Sub-Adviser believes are entering into a growth cycle in their business, with
the expectation that their stock will increase in value. They may be
established companies as well as newer companies in the development stage.


         Growth companies might have a variety of characteristics that in the
         Sub-Adviser's view define them as "growth" issuers. They might be
         generating or applying new technologies, new or improved
         distribution techniques or new services. They might own or develop
         natural resources. They might be companies that can benefit from
         changing consumer demands or lifestyles, or companies that have
         projected earnings in excess of the average for their sector or
         industry. In each case, they have prospects that the Sub-Adviser
         believes are favorable for the long term. The portfolio manager of
         the Fund looks for growth companies with strong, capable management,
         sound financial and accounting policies, successful product
         development and marketing and other factors.

      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: 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.
         Convertible securities are subject to credit risks and interest rate
         risk as discussed below under "Investing in Debt Securities".

      While many convertible securities are a form of debt security, in some
      cases their conversion feature (allowing conversion into equity
      securities) causes the Sub-Adviser to regard them more as "equity
      equivalents". In those cases, the credit rating assigned to the
      security has less impact on the Sub-Adviser'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 Sub-Adviser examines the following factors:
(1)   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,
(2)   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
(3)   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.

      Rights and Warrants. The Fund can invest up to 5% of its total assets
         in warrants or rights. That 5% limit does not apply to warrants and
         rights the Fund has acquired as part of units of securities or that
         are attached to other securities that the Fund buys.

         Warrants basically are options to purchase equity securities at
         specific prices valid for a specific period of time. The market for
         warrants may be very limited and they may be difficult for the Fund
         to dispose of promptly at an acceptable price.  Their prices do not
         necessarily move parallel to the prices of the underlying securities
         and they may often rise or fall in value more quickly than 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.

      Preferred Stocks. Preferred stocks are equity securities but have
         certain attributes of debt securities. Preferred stock, unlike
         common stock, has a stated dividend rate payable from the
         corporation's earnings. Preferred stock dividends may be cumulative
         or non-cumulative, participating, or auction rate. "Cumulative"
         dividend provisions require all or a portion of prior unpaid
         dividends to be paid before the issuer can pay dividends on common
         shares.

         If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may
         be less attractive, causing the price of preferred stocks to
         decline. Preferred stocks may have mandatory sinking fund
         provisions, as well as provisions for their call or redemption prior
         to maturity which can have a negative effect on their prices when
         interest rates decline. Preferred stock may be "participating"
         stock, which means that it may be entitled to a dividend exceeding
         the stated dividend in certain cases.

         Preferred stocks are equity securities because they do not
         constitute a liability of the issuer and therefore do not offer the
         same degree of protection of capital as debt securities and may not
         offer the same degree of assurance of continued income as debt
         securities. The rights of preferred stock on distribution of a
         corporation's assets in the event of its liquidation are generally
         subordinate to the rights associated with a corporation's debt
         securities. Preferred stock generally has a preference over common
         stock on the distribution of a corporation's assets in the event of
         its liquidation.


      |X| Foreign Securities. "Foreign securities" include equity and debt
securities of companies organized under the laws of countries other than the
United States and of governments other than the U.S. government. "Foreign
securities" also include securities of companies (including those that are
located in the U.S. or organized under U.S. law) that derive a significant
portion of their revenue or profits from foreign businesses, investments or
sales, or that have a significant portion of their assets abroad. Those
securities may be traded on foreign securities exchanges or in the foreign
over-the-counter markets.


      The amount of the Fund's assets invested in securities of issuers in
Japan will vary over time based upon the Sub-Adviser's evaluation of the
investment merits of particular issuers as well as the market and economic
conditions in a particular country or region, but, under normal market
conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets plus
borrowings for investment purposes in equity securities of companies located
in Japan. Factors that might be considered could include, for example, a
country's balance of payments, inflation rate, economic self-sufficiency, and
social and political factors.

      Because the Fund may purchase securities denominated in foreign
currencies, a change in the value of such foreign currency against the U.S.
dollar will result in a change in the amount of income the Fund has available
for distribution. Because a portion of the Fund's investment income may be
received in foreign currencies, the Fund will be required to compute its
income in U.S. dollars for distribution to shareholders, and therefore the
Fund will absorb the cost of currency fluctuations. After the Fund has
distributed income, subsequent foreign currency losses may result in the
Fund's having distributed more income in a particular fiscal period that was
available from investment income, which could result in a return of capital
to shareholders.

      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.

|X|   Depositary Receipts.  The Fund may invest in depositary receipts
("Depositary Receipts") or other, similar securities that represent an
investment in or are convertible into securities of foreign issuers.
Depositary Receipts may be sponsored or unsponsored and include American
Depositary Receipts ("ADR"s), European Depositary Receipts ("EDR"s) and
Global Depositary Receipts ("GDR"s).  ADRs are typically issued by an
American bank or trust company and represent an interest in underlying
securities issued by a foreign corporation. EDRs are issued in Europe and
GDRs are issued throughout the world. They each represent a similar ownership
arrangement. Other types of Depositary Receipts may be issued in particular
markets or with respect to the securities of a particular geographic area.
Depositary Receipts are generally subject to the same risks as foreign
securities. In addition, Depositary Receipts are not necessarily denominated
in the same currency as their underlying securities, and thus the Fund may be
subject to currency risk. The depositary usually charges fees upon the
deposit and withdrawal of the underlying securities, the conversion of
dividends into U.S. dollars or other currency disposition of non-cash
distributions and the performance of other services. Depositary Receipts are
considered "foreign securities" for the purpose of the Fund's investment
allocations. Some of the Depositary Receipts that the Fund may invest in are
"unsponsored." Holders of unsponsored depositary receipts generally bear all
the costs of the facility.  The issuers of unsponsored Depositary Receipts
are not obligated to disclose information that may be considered material in
the United States. If less information is available regarding an issuer, the
market price of those Depositary Receipts may not correspond to the value of
the underlying securities.  The depositary of an unsponsored facility
frequently is under no obligation to pass through voting rights to depositary
receipt holders with respect to the underlying securities.



      |X|   Foreign Debt Obligations. The debt obligations of foreign
governments and their agencies and instrumentalities may or may not be
supported by the full faith and credit of the foreign government. The Fund
can buy securities issued by certain "supra-national" entities, which include
entities designated or supported by governments to promote economic
reconstruction or development, international banking organizations and
related government agencies. Examples are the International Bank for
Reconstruciton and Development (commonly called the "World Bank"), the Asian
Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank.

      The governmental members of these supra-national entities are
"stockholders" that typically make capital contributions and may be committed
to make additional capital contributions if the entity is unable to repay its
borrowings. A supra-national entity's lending activities may be limited to a
percentage of its total capital, reserves and net income. There can be no
assurance that the constituent foreign governments will continue to be able
or willing to honor their capitalization commitments for those entities.


o     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, currency devaluation 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     foreign exchange contracts;
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     foreign withholding taxes on interest and dividends;
o     possibilities in some countries of expropriation, nationalization,
                  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.


      Passive Foreign Investment Companies. Some securities of corporations
domiciled outside the U.S. which the Fund may purchase, may be considered
passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs") under U.S. tax laws. PFICs are
those foreign corporations which generate primarily passive income. They tend
to be growth companies or "start-up" companies. For federal tax purposes, a
corporation is deemed a PFIC if 75% or more of the foreign corporation's
gross income for the income year is passive income or if 50% or more of its
assets are assets that produce or are held to produce passive income. Passive
income is further defined as any income to be considered foreign personal
holding company income within the subpart F provisions defined by Internal
Revenue Code ("IRC")ss.954.


      Investing in PFICs involves the risks associated with investing in
foreign securities, as described above. There are also the risks that the
Fund may not realize that a foreign corporation it invests in is a PFIC for
federal tax purposes. Federal tax laws impose severe tax penalties for
failure to properly report investment income from PFICs. Following industry
standards, the Fund makes every effort to ensure compliance with federal tax
reporting of these investments. PFICs are considered foreign securities for
the purposes of the Fund's minimum percentage requirements or limitations of
investing in foreign securities.


      Portfolio Turnover. "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at which
the Fund traded its portfolio securities during its last 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, depending on market conditions. 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 IRC.


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

      Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies. The 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 might have a limited trading market, which could adversely
affect the Fund's ability to dispose of them and can reduce the price the
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 Fund is attempting to dispose of its
holdings of that security. In that case the Fund might receive a lower price
for its holdings than might otherwise be obtained. The Fund has no limit on
the amount of its net assets that may be invested in those securities.

      Investing in Debt Securities. While the Fund does not invest for the
purpose of seeking current income, at times the Fund can invest in debt
securities, including the convertible debt securities described above under
the description of equity investments. Debt securities also can be selected
for investment by the Fund for defensive purposes, as described below. For
example, when the stock market is volatile, or when the portfolio manager
believes that growth opportunities in stocks are not attractive, certain debt
securities might not only offer defensive opportunities but also some
opportunities for capital appreciation.

      The Fund's debt investments can include corporate bonds and notes of
foreign or U.S. companies, as well as U.S. and foreign government securities.
It is not expected that this will be a significant portfolio strategy of the
Fund under normal market circumstances, and the Fund normally does not intend
to invest more than 5% of its total assets in debt securities. Foreign debt
securities are subject to the risks of foreign investing described above. In
general, domestic and foreign fixed- income securities are also subject to
two additional types of risk: credit risk and interest rate risk.


o     Credit Risk. Some of the special credit risks of debt securities are
discussed in the Prospectus. For lower-grade debt securities 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 risks of
foreign investing discussed in the Prospectus and in this SAI.


      However, the Fund's limitations on buying these investments may reduce
the risks to the Fund, as will the 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.

o     Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in
value of fixed-income 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 fixed-income
investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase
their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend
to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in
value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter
maturities.

      Fluctuations in the market value of fixed-income 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.

o     Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. While the Fund can invest in
higher-yielding lower-grade debt securities (that is, securities below
investment grade), its debt investments will generally be investment grade.
Those are securities rated in the four highest rating categories of Moody's
Investors Service ("Moody's"), Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division
of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. ("Standard and Poor's") and Fitch, Inc.
("Fitch"), or having equivalent ratings from other nationally recognized
rating agencies or, in the case of unrated securities, comparable ratings
assigned to a security by the Sub-Adviser.

      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 or similar ratings by other nationally
recognized rating organizations. If they are unrated, and are determined by
the Sub-Adviser to be of comparable quality to debt securities rated below
investment grade, they are included in the limitation on the percentage of
the Fund's assets that can be invested in debt securities as stated above.


      The Fund can invest in securities rated as low as "C" or "D" or which
are in default when the Fund buys them. Securities rated "Baa" by Moody's or
"BBB" by Standard & Poor's are considered investment grade but may be subject
to greater market fluctuations and risks of loss of income and principal than
higher-grade securities. They may be considered to have speculative elements.
Definitions of the debt security ratings categories of Moody's, Standard &
Poor's and Fitch are included in Appendix A to this SAI.


      The Fund can also buy unrated securities to which the Sub-Adviser
assigns a rating based upon its evaluation of the yield and risks of
comparable rated securities. The Fund is not obligated to dispose of a
security if the rating is reduced after the Fund buys the security, but the
Sub-Adviser will monitor those securities to determine whether they should be
retained in the Fund's portfolio.

      Investing in Cyclical Opportunities. The Fund might also seek to take
advantage of changes in the business cycle by investing in companies that are
sensitive to those changes if the Sub-Adviser believes they have growth
potential. For example, when the economy is expanding,
companies in the consumer durables and technology sectors might benefit and
present long-term growth opportunities. The Fund focuses on seeking growth
over the long term but might seek to take tactical advantage of short-term
market movements or events affecting particular issuers or industries. There
is the risk that those securities can lose value when the issuer or industry
is out of favor in the business cycle.

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


      In a repurchase transaction, the 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 Fund's investment manager,
OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (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 Fund's policy limits on holding illiquid investments,
described below. The Fund cannot 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
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 of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act"), are collateralized by the
underlying security. The 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 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 ("SEC"), the 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.

o     Reverse Repurchase Agreements. The Fund can use reverse repurchase
agreements on debt obligations it owns. Under a reverse repurchase agreement,
the Fund sells an underlying debt obligation and simultaneously agrees to
repurchase the same security at an
agreed-upon price at an agreed-upon date. The Fund will identify on its books
liquid assets in an amount sufficient to cover its obligations under reverse
repurchase agreements, including interest, until payment is made to the
seller.

      These transactions involve the risk that the market value of the
securities sold by the Fund under a reverse repurchase agreement could
decline below the price at which the Fund is obligated to repurchase them.
These agreements are considered borrowings by the Fund and will be subject to
the asset coverage requirement under the Fund's policy on borrowing discussed
below.

      |X|   Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Under the policies and
procedures established by the Fund's Board of Trustees, the Manager
determines the liquidity of certain of the Fund's investments. To enable the
Fund to sell its holdings of a restricted security not registered under
applicable securities laws, the Fund may have to cause those securities to be
registered. The expenses of registering restricted securities may be
negotiated by the Fund with the issuer at the time the Fund buys the
securities. When the Fund must arrange registration because the 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 Fund could sell it. The Fund would bear the risks of any downward
price fluctuation during that period.

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

      The 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 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.

Borrowing  for Leverage.  The Fund may not 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
statute,  rules or  regulations  may be  amended or  interpreted  from time to
time.  Borrowing may entail  "leverage,"  and may be a speculative  investment
strategy.  Any  borrowing  will be made only from banks and,  pursuant  to the
requirements  of the  Investment  Company Act, will be made only to the extent
that  the  value  of the  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 the Fund's assets, when computed in that
manner, 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 that coverage requirement.  To do so, the Fund may have to sell a portion
of its  investments  at a time  when it would  otherwise  not want to sell the
securities.  Interest  on money the Fund  borrows is an expense the Fund would
not otherwise  incur,  so that during periods of substantial  borrowings,  its
expenses may increase more than the expenses of funds that do not borrow.  The
use of  leverage  also may make the Fund's  share  prices  more  sensitive  to
interest rate changes.

|X|   Loans of Portfolio Securities. To raise cash for liquidity purposes,
the Fund can lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and other
types of financial institutions approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees.
These loans are limited to not more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total
assets. The Fund currently does not intend to engage in loans of securities,
but if it does so, such loans will not likely exceed 5% of the Fund's total
assets.

      There are some risks in connection with securities lending. The Fund
might experience a delay in receiving additional collateral to secure a loan,
or a delay in recovery of the loaned securities if the borrower defaults. The
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 Fund is permitted to invest. To be acceptable as collateral,
letters of credit must obligate a bank to pay amounts demanded by the 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 Fund.

      When it lends securities, the 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. Each type of interest may be shared with the borrower. The Fund
may also pay reasonable finders', custodian and administrative fees in
connection with these loans. The terms of the Fund's loans must meet
applicable tests under the Internal Revenue Code and must permit the Fund to
reacquire loaned securities on five days' notice or in time to vote on any
important matter.


      Derivatives. The Fund can invest in a variety of derivative investments
to seek income for liquidity needs or for hedging purposes. Some derivative
investments the Fund can use are the hedging instruments described below in
this SAI. However, the Fund does not use, and does not currently contemplate
using, derivatives or hedging instruments to a significant degree.


      Some of the derivative investments the 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 Sub-Adviser expected.

      Hedging. Although the Fund does not anticipate the extensive use of
hedging instruments, the Fund can use them. It is not required to do so in
seeking its objective. To attempt to protect against declines in the market
value of the Fund's portfolio, to permit the Fund to retain unrealized gains
in the value of portfolio securities which have appreciated, or to facilitate
selling securities for investment reasons, the Fund could:
o     sell futures contracts,
o     buy puts on futures or on securities, or
o     write covered calls on securities or futures. Covered calls can also be
            used to seek income, but the Sub-Adviser does not expect to
            engage extensively in that practice.

      The Fund might use hedging to establish a position in the securities
market as a temporary substitute for purchasing particular securities. In
that case, the Fund would normally seek to purchase the securities and then
terminate that hedging position. The 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
Fund could:
o     buy futures, or
o     buy calls on such futures or on securities.

      The Fund's strategy of hedging with futures and options on futures will
be incidental to the Fund's activities in the underlying cash market. The
particular hedging instruments the Fund can use are described below. The Fund
may employ new hedging instruments and strategies when they are developed, if
those investment methods are consistent with the Fund's investment objective
and are permissible under applicable regulations governing the Fund.

o     Futures. The Fund can buy and sell futures contracts that relate to
(1) broadly-based stock indices (these are referred to as "stock index
futures"), (2) foreign currencies (these are referred to as "forward
contracts") and (3) an individual stock ("single stock futures").

      A single stock future obligates the seller to deliver (and the
purchaser to take) cash or a specified equity security to settle the futures
transaction. Either party could also enter into an offsetting contract to
close out the position. Single stock futures trade on a very limited number
of exchanges, with contracts typically not fungible among the exchanges.

      A broadly-based stock index is used as the basis for trading stock
index futures. An index 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. 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.

      No money is paid or received by the Fund on the purchase or sale of a
future. Upon entering into a futures transaction, the 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
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 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 Fund may 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 Fund. Any loss or gain on the future is then
realized by the 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.

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

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

      When the Fund writes a call on a security, it receives cash (a
premium). The 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 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 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 Fund would keep the cash premium and the investment.

      When the Fund writes a call on an index, it receives cash (a premium).
If the buyer of the call exercises it, the Fund will pay an amount of cash
equal to the difference between the closing price of the call and the
exercise price, multiplied by the 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 Fund would keep
the cash premium.

      The Fund's custodian, or a securities depository acting for the
custodian, will act as the Fund's escrow agent, through the facilities of the
Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC"), as to the investments on which the 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
Fund enters into a closing transaction.

      If the 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 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 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 Fund may
purchase a corresponding call in a "closing purchase transaction". The 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 Fund wrote is more or less than the price of the call the Fund purchases
to close out the transaction. The Fund may realize a profit if the call
expires unexercised, because the 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 Fund they are taxable
as ordinary income. If the 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 Fund may 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 Fund must cover the call by identifying on
its books an equivalent dollar amount of liquid assets. The Fund will
identify additional liquid assets on the Fund's books if the value of the
identified assets drops below 100% of the current value of the future.
Because of this segregation requirement, in no circumstances would the Fund's
receipt of an exercise notice as to that future require the Fund to deliver a
futures contract. It would simply put the Fund in a short futures position,
which is permitted by the Fund's hedging policies.

o     Writing Put Options. The 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 Fund will not write puts if, as a result, more than 50% of
the Fund's net assets would be required to be identified on the Fund's books
to cover such put options.

      If the Fund writes a put, the put must be covered by liquid assets
identified on the Fund's books. The premium the 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 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 Fund has
written expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a gain in the amount of the
premium less the transaction costs incurred. If the put is exercised, the
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 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 Fund incurred.

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

      As long as the 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 Fund to take delivery of the underlying
security and pay the exercise price. The 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 Fund
effects a closing purchase transaction by purchasing a put of the same series
as it sold. Once the Fund has been assigned an exercise notice, it cannot
effect a closing purchase transaction.

      The Fund may 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 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 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 Fund, are taxable as ordinary income.

o     Purchasing Puts and Calls. The Fund can purchase calls to protect
against the possibility that the Fund's portfolio will not participate in an
anticipated rise in the securities market. When the Fund buys a call (other
than in a closing purchase transaction), it pays a premium. The 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 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 Fund exercises the call. If the 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 Fund will have paid the premium but
lost the right to purchase the underlying investment.

      The Fund can buy puts whether or not it holds the underlying investment
in its portfolio. When the 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 Fund owns
enables the 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 Fund will have paid the premium but lost the right to sell the underlying
investment. However, the Fund may sell the put prior to its expiration. That
sale may or may not be at a profit.

      Buying a put on an investment the Fund does not own (such as an index
or future) permits the Fund either 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 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 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 Fund may buy a call or put only if, after the purchase, the value
of all call and put options held by the Fund will not exceed 5% of the Fund's
total assets.

o     Buying and Selling Call and Put Options on Foreign Currencies. The 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 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 Fund wants to acquire.

      If the Sub-Adviser 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 Sub-Adviser 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 Fund's
position. The Fund will then have incurred option premium payments and
transaction costs without a corresponding benefit.

      A call the Fund writes on a foreign currency is "covered" if the 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 identified
on its books) upon conversion or exchange of other foreign currency held in
its portfolio.

      The 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 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 Fund covers the option
by identifying on its books liquid assets in an amount equal to the exercise
price of the option.

o     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 Sub-Adviser uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges market
conditions incorrectly, hedging strategies may reduce the Fund's return. The
Fund could also experience losses if the prices of its futures and options
positions were not correlated with its other investments.

      The Fund's option activities could affect its portfolio turnover rate
and brokerage commissions. The exercise of calls written by the Fund might
cause the Fund to sell related portfolio securities, thus increasing its
turnover rate. The exercise by the 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 Fund's control,
holding a put might cause the Fund to sell the related investments for
reasons that would not exist in the absence of the put.

      The 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 Fund's net asset value being more
sensitive to changes in the value of the underlying investment.

      If a covered call written by the Fund is exercised on an investment
that has increased in value, the 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 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 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 Fund's securities. For example,
it is possible that while the Fund has used hedging instruments in a short
hedge, the market might advance and the value of the securities held in the
Fund's portfolio might decline. If that occurred, the 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
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 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 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 Fund
does so the market might decline. If the Fund then concludes not to invest in
securities because of concerns that the market might decline further or for
other reasons, the Fund will realize a loss on the hedging instruments that
is not offset by a reduction in the price of the securities purchased.

o     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 Fund uses them to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a
security denominated in a foreign currency that the 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 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 Fund may also use "cross-hedging" where the 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 Fund may 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 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 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 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 Fund could 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 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 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
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
Fund's portfolio securities denominated in that foreign currency. When the
Fund believes that the U.S. dollar might 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 Fund could
enter into a forward contract to sell a different foreign currency for a
fixed U.S. dollar amount if the 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 Fund are denominated. That is referred to as a
"cross hedge".

      The Fund will cover its short positions in these cases by identifying
on its books assets having a value equal to the aggregate amount of the
Fund's commitment under forward contracts. The Fund will not enter into
forward contracts or maintain a net exposure to such contracts if the
consummation of the contracts would obligate the Fund to deliver an amount of
foreign currency in excess of the value of the 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 Fund
may maintain a net exposure to forward contracts in excess of the value of
the 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 Fund may purchase a call option
permitting the 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 Fund may purchase a put option permitting
the 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 Sub-Adviser 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 Fund is obligated to deliver, the
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 Fund is obligated
to deliver to settle the trade, the 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 Fund to
sustain losses on these contracts and to pay additional transactions costs.
The use of forward contracts in this manner might reduce the Fund's
performance if there are unanticipated changes in currency prices to a
greater degree than if the Fund had not entered into such contracts.

      At or before the maturity of a forward contract requiring the Fund to
sell a currency, the Fund might sell a portfolio security and use the sale
proceeds to make delivery of the currency. In the alternative the Fund might
retain the security and offset its contractual obligation to deliver the
currency by purchasing a second contract. Under that contract the Fund will
obtain, on the same maturity date, the same amount of the currency that it is
obligated to deliver. Similarly, the 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 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 Fund of engaging in forward contracts vary 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 Fund
must evaluate the credit and performance risk of the counterparty under each
forward contract.

      Although the 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 Fund may 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 Fund
at one rate, while offering a lesser rate of exchange if the Fund desires to
resell that currency to the dealer.

o     Total Return Swap Transactions. The Fund may enter into total return
swaps. The Fund will only enter into total return swaps if consistent with
its fundamental investment objectives or policies. A swap contract is
essentially like a portfolio of forward contracts, under which one party
agrees to exchange an asset (for example, bushels of wheat) for another asset
(cash) at specified dates in the future. A one-period swap contract operates
in a manner similar to a forward or futures contract because there is an
agreement to swap a commodity for cash at only one forward date. The Fund may
engage in swap transactions that have more than one period and therefore more
than one exchange of assets.

      The Fund may invest in total return swaps to gain exposure to the
overall commodity markets. In a total return commodity swap the Fund will
receive the price appreciation of a commodity index, a portion of the index,
or a single commodity in exchange for paying an agreed-upon fee. If the
commodity swap is for one period, the Fund will pay a fixed fee, established
at the outset of the swap. However, if the term of the commodity swap is more
than one period, with interim swap payments, the Fund will pay an adjustable
or floating fee. With a "floating" rate, the fee is pegged to a base rate
such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), and is adjusted each
period. Therefore, if interest rates increase over the term of the swap
contract, the Fund may be required to pay a higher fee at each swap reset
date.


o     Regulatory Aspects of Hedging Instruments. The Commodities Futures
Trading Commission (the "CFTC") has eliminated limitations on futures trading
by certain regulated entities including registered investment companies and
consequently registered investment companies may engage in unlimited futures
transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund claims an exclusion
from regulation as a commodity pool operator. The Fund has claimed such an
exclusion from registration as a commodity pool operator under the Commodity
Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Fund may use futures and options for hedging and
non-hedging purposes to the extent consistent with its investment objective,
internal risk management guidelines adopted by the Fund's Manager (as they
may be amended from time to time), and as otherwise set forth in the Fund's
Prospectus or this SAI.


      Transactions in options by the 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 Fund may
write or hold may be affected by options written or held by other entities,
including other investment companies having the same advisor as the Fund (or
an advisor that is an affiliate of the 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 SEC staff interpretations regarding applicable provisions of the
Investment Company Act, when the Fund purchases a future, it must segregate
cash or readily marketable short-term debt instruments in an amount equal to
the purchase price of the future, less the margin deposit applicable to it.

o     Tax Aspects of Certain Hedging Instruments. Certain foreign currency
exchange contracts in which the Fund may 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 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 Fund to exempt those transactions from
this marked-to-market treatment.

      Certain forward contracts the 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 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 Fund accrues interest or other
           receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated
           in a foreign currency and the time the 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 Fund's  investment  income  available  for  distribution  to its
shareholders.

      Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments.  When market conditions are
unstable,  or the Sub-Adviser  believes it is otherwise  appropriate to reduce
holdings in stocks,  the Fund can invest in a variety of debt  securities  for
defensive purposes.  The Fund can also purchase these securities for liquidity
purposes to meet cash needs due to the  redemption of Fund shares,  or to hold
while  waiting to  reinvest  cash  received  from the sale of other  portfolio
securities. The Fund can buy:
o     high-quality (rated in the top two rating categories of
            nationally-recognized rating organizations or deemed by the
            Sub-Adviser to be of comparable quality), short-term money market
            instruments, including those issued by the U. S. Treasury or
            other government agencies,
o     commercial paper (short-term, unsecured, promissory notes of domestic
            or foreign companies) rated in the top two rating categories of a
            nationally-recognized rating organization,
o     debt obligations of corporate issuers, rated investment grade (rated at
            least Baa by Moody's or at least BBB by Standard & Poor's, or a
            comparable rating by another rating organization), or unrated
            securities judged by the Sub-Adviser to be of a quality
            comparable to rated securities in those categories,
o     certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic and
            foreign banks and savings and loan associations, and
o     repurchase agreements.

      Short-term debt securities would normally be selected for defensive or
cash management purposes because they can normally be disposed of quickly,
are not generally subject to significant fluctuations in principal value and
their value will be less subject to interest rate risk than longer-term debt
securities.

Other 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 SAI 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 SAI, as appropriate. The Fund's principal 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 may not borrow money, except to the extent permitted by the
Investment Company Act or any rules, exemptions or interpretations thereunder
that may be adopted, granted or issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC).

o     The Fund cannot make loans, 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 statute, rules or
regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

o     The Fund cannot invest more than 25% of its total assets in any one
industry or group of related industries. That limit does not apply to
securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and
instrumentalities or securities issued by investment companies.

o     The Fund cannot invest in real estate, physical commodities or
commodity contracts, except to the extent permitted under the Investment
Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom,
as such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time
to time.

o     The Fund cannot issue senior securities, except to the extent permitted
under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any
exemption therefrom, as such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or
interpreted from time to time.

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

      Currently, under the Investment Company Act, and the Oppenheimer funds'
exemptive order, a fund may borrow only from banks and/or affiliated
investment companies in an amount up to one-third of its total assets
(including the amount borrowed less all liabilities and indebtedness other
than borrowing), except that a fund may borrow up to 5% of its total assets
for temporary purposes from any person. Under the Investment Company Act,
there is a rebuttable presumption that a loan is temporary if it is repaid
within 60 days and not extended or renewed. Also, presently under the
Investment Company Act, a fund may lend its portfolio securities in an amount
not to exceed 33 1/3 percent of the value of its total assets. The Investment
Company Act also requires each registered fund to adopt a fundamental policy
regarding investments in real estate and/or commodities. To the extent that a
Fund has restrictions on or not permitted to invest in real estate, real
estate related securities and/or commodities, that information is set out in
the investment restrictions in this section. Presently, under the Investment
Company Act a registered mutual fund cannot make any commitment as an
underwriter, if immediately thereafter the amount of its outstanding
underwriting commitments, plus the value of its investments in securities of
issuers (other than investment companies) of which it owns more than ten
percent of the outstanding voting securities, exceeds twenty-five percent of
the value of the fund's total assets, except to the extent that a fund may be
considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act when
reselling securities held in its own portfolio.

      Does the Fund Have Additional Restrictions That Are Not "Fundamental"
Policies? The Fund has an additional operating policy which is stated below,
that is not
"fundamental", and which can be changed by the Board of Trustees without
shareholder approval.

o     As a non-fundamental policy, the Fund cannot sell securities short
      except in collateralized transactions. In those cases the Fund must own
      an equivalent amount of the securities sold short. Not more than 15% of
      the Fund's net assets may be held as collateral for short sales at any
      time. The Fund does not expect to engage in this type of transaction as
      part of its normal portfolio management techniques.

o     Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of
      its net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes, in securities
      issued by companies located in Japan.  Shareholders will be given 60
      days' advance written notice of any change to this 80% policy. A
      company generally is considered to be located in Japan if it is tied
      economically to Japan, as determined by the Fund's management.  The
      criteria the Fund's management will consider in making that
      determination are:
              o it is domiciled in Japan; or
              o its securities are quoted or traded on any Japanese stock
            exchange; and
              o it derives at least 50% of their revenue from Japan; or
              o it has at least 50% of their assets in Japan.

       The portfolio manager determines whether a specific company meets
       these criteria based on publicly available information.

o     The Fund cannot invest in the securities of other registered 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.


      Unless the Prospectus or this SAI states that a percentage restriction
applies on an ongoing basis, it applies only at the time the Fund makes an
investment (except in the case of borrowing and investments from illiquid
securities). 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 classifications of industries and
groups of related industries. This classification is not a fundamental policy.


    Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings. The Fund has adopted policies and
    procedures concerning the dissemination of information about its
    portfolio holdings by employees, officers and/or directors of the
    Manager, Sub-Adviser, Distributor and Transfer Agent. These policies are
    designed to assure that non-public information about portfolio securities
    is distributed only for a legitimate business purpose, and is done in a
    manner that (a) conforms to applicable laws and regulations and (b) is
    designed to prevent that information from being used in a way that could
    negatively affect the Fund's investment program or enable third parties
    to use that information in a manner that is harmful to the Fund.

o     Public Disclosure. The Fund's portfolio holdings are made publicly
            available no later than 60 days after the close of each of the
            Fund's fiscal quarters in its semi-annual report to shareholders,
            its annual report to shareholders, or its Statements of
            Investments on Form N-Q. Those documents are publicly available
            at the SEC. In addition, the top 20 month-end holdings may be
            posted on the OppenheimerFunds' website at
            www.oppenheimerfunds.com (select the Fund's name under the "View
            Fund Information for:" menu) with a 15-day lag.  The Fund may
            release a more restrictive list of holdings (e.g., the top five
            or top 10 portfolio holdings) or may release no holdings if that
            is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.  Other
            general information about the Fund's portfolio investments, such
            as portfolio composition by asset class, industry, country,
            currency, credit rating or maturity, may also be posted.


          Until publicly disclosed, the Fund's portfolio holdings are
    proprietary, confidential business information. While recognizing the
    importance of providing Fund shareholders with information about their
    Fund's investments and providing portfolio information to a variety of
    third parties to assist with the management, distribution and
    administrative process, the need for transparency must be balanced
    against the risk that third parties who gain access to the Fund's
    portfolio holdings information could attempt to use that information to
    trade ahead of or against the Fund, which could negatively affect the
    prices the Fund is able to obtain in portfolio transactions or the
    availability of the securities that portfolio managers are trading on the
    Fund's behalf.


          The Manager and its subsidiaries and affiliates, employees,
    officers, and directors, shall neither solicit nor accept any
    compensation or other consideration (including any agreement to maintain
    assets in the Fund or in other investment companies or accounts managed
    by the Manager or any affiliated person of the Manager) in connection
    with the disclosure of the Fund's non-public portfolio holdings. The
    receipt of investment advisory fees or other fees and compensation paid
    to the Manager, the Sub-Adviser and their subsidiaries pursuant to
    agreements approved by the Fund's Board shall not be deemed to be
    "compensation" or "consideration" for these purposes. It is a violation
    of the Code of Ethics for any covered person to release holdings in
    contravention of portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures
    adopted by the Fund.

          A list of the top 20 portfolio securities holdings (based on
    invested assets), listed by security or by issuer, as of the end of each
    month may be disclosed to third parties (subject to the procedures below)
    no sooner than 15 days after month-end.

          Except under special limited circumstances discussed below,
    month-end lists of the Fund's complete portfolio holdings may be
    disclosed no sooner than 30-days after the relevant month-end, subject to
    the procedures below. If the Fund's complete portfolio holdings have not
    been disclosed publicly, they may be disclosed pursuant to special
    requests for legitimate business reasons, provided that:


o     The third-party recipient must first submit a request for release of
            Fund portfolio holdings, explaining the business reason for the
            request;
o     Senior officers (a Senior Vice President or above) in the Manager's
            Portfolio and Legal departments must approve the completed
            request for release of Fund portfolio holdings; and
o     The third-party recipient must sign the Manager's portfolio holdings
            non-disclosure agreement before receiving the data, agreeing to
            keep information that is not publicly available regarding the
            Fund's holdings confidential and agreeing not to trade directly
            or indirectly based on the information.


          The Fund's complete portfolio holdings positions may be released to
    the following categories of entities or individuals on an ongoing basis,
    provided that such entity or individual either (1) has signed an
    agreement to keep such information confidential and not trade on the
    basis of such information or (2) is subject to fiduciary obligations, as
    a member of the Fund's Board, or as an employee, officer and/or director
    of the Manager, Sub-Adviser, Distributor, or Transfer Agent, or their
    respective legal counsel, not to disclose such information except in
    conformity with these policies and procedures and not to trade for
    his/her personal account on the basis of such information:

o     Employees of the Fund's Manager, Sub-Adviser, Distributor and Transfer
            Agent who need to have access to such information (as determined
            by senior officers of such entity),

o     The Fund's independent registered public accounting firm,
o     Members of the Fund's Board and the Board's legal counsel,
o     The Fund's custodian bank,
o     A proxy voting service designated by the Fund and its Board,
o     Rating/ranking organizations (such as Lipper and Morningstar),
o     Portfolio pricing services retained by the Manager to provide portfolio
            security prices, and
o     Dealers, to obtain bids (price quotations if securities are not priced
            by the Fund's regular pricing services).


          Portfolio holdings information of the Fund may be provided, under
    limited circumstances, to brokers and/or dealers with whom the Fund
    trades and/or entities that provide investment coverage and/or analytical
    information regarding the Fund's portfolio, provided that there is a
    legitimate investment reason for providing the information to the broker,
    dealer or other entity. Month-end portfolio holdings information may,
    under this procedure, be provided to vendors providing research
    information and/or analytics to the Fund, with at least a 15-day delay
    after the month end, but in certain cases may be provided to a broker or
    analytical vendor with a 1-2 day lag to facilitate the provision of
    requested investment information to the manager to facilitate a
    particular trade or the portfolio manager's investment process for the
    Fund. Any third party receiving such information must first sign the
    Manager's portfolio holdings non-disclosure agreement as a pre-condition
    to receiving this information.


          Portfolio holdings information (which may include information on
    individual securities positions or multiple securities) may be provided
    to the entities listed below (1) by portfolio traders employed by the
    Manager in connection with portfolio trading, and (2) by the members of
    the Manager's Security Valuation Group and Accounting Departments in
    connection with portfolio pricing or other portfolio evaluation purposes:

o     Brokers and dealers in connection with portfolio transactions
            (purchases and sales)

o     Brokers and dealers to obtain bids or bid and asked prices (if
            securities held by the Fund are not priced by the Fund's regular
            pricing services)
o     Dealers to obtain price quotations where the Fund is not identified as
            the owner.


          Portfolio holdings information (which may include information on
    the Fund's entire portfolio or individual securities therein) may be
    provided by senior officers of the Manager or attorneys on the legal
    staff of the Manager, Distributor, or Transfer Agent, in the following
    circumstances:

o     Response to legal process in litigation matters, such as responses to
            subpoenas or in class action matters where the Fund may be part
            of the plaintiff class (and seeks recovery for losses on a
            security) or a defendant,

o     Response to regulatory requests for information (the SEC, Financial
            Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), state securities
            regulators, and/or foreign securities authorities, including
            without limitation requests for information in inspections or for
            position reporting purposes),
o     To potential sub-advisers of portfolios (pursuant to confidentiality
            agreements),

    diligence or similar meetings with clients or prospective purchasers of
    Fund shares or their financial intermediary representatives.

          The Fund's shareholders may, under unusual circumstances (such as a
    lack of liquidity in the Fund's portfolio to meet redemptions), receive
    redemption proceeds of their Fund shares paid as pro rata shares of
    securities held in the Fund's portfolio. In such circumstances,
    disclosure of the Fund's portfolio holdings may be made to such
    shareholders.


    Any permitted release of otherwise non-public portfolio holdings
    information must be in accordance with the Fund's then-current policy on
    approved methods for communicating confidential information, including

    technology.

          The Chief Compliance Officer (the "CCO") of the Fund and the
    Manager, Distributor, and Transfer Agent shall oversee the compliance by
    the Manager, Sub-Adviser, Distributor, Transfer Agent, and their
    personnel with these policies and procedures. At least annually, the CCO
    shall report to the Fund's Board on such compliance oversight and on the
    categories of entities and individuals to which disclosure of portfolio
    holdings of the Fund has been made during the preceding year pursuant to
    these policies. The CCO shall report to the Fund's Board any material
    violation of these policies and procedures and shall make recommendations
    to the Board as to any amendments that the CCO believes are necessary and
    desirable to carry out or improve these policies and procedures.


           The Manager and/or the Fund have entered into ongoing arrangements
    to make available information about the Fund's portfolio holdings. One or
    more of the Oppenheimer funds may currently disclose portfolio holdings
    information based on ongoing arrangements to the following parties:

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History. The Fund is an open-end, diversified management
investment company with an unlimited number of authorized shares of
beneficial interest. The Fund was organized as a Massachusetts business trust
in September 2006


|X|   Classes of Shares. The Trustees are authorized, without shareholder
approval, to create new series and classes of shares, to reclassify unissued
shares into additional series or classes and to 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, preemptive rights or subscription rights.
Shares may be voted in person or by proxy at shareholder meetings.


      The Fund currently has five classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class
C, Class N and Class Y. All classes invest in the same investment portfolio.
Only retirement plans may purchase Class N shares. Only certain institutional
investors may purchase Class Y 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     will generally have a different net asset value,
o     will generally 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 a vote of  shareholders.  Each  share  of the  Fund
represents  an interest in the Fund  proportionately  equal to the interest of
each other share of the same class.


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

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

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

      The Fund's contractual arrangements state that any person doing
business with the Fund (and each shareholder of the Fund) agrees under its
Declaration of Trust to look solely to the assets of the Fund for
satisfaction of any claim or demand that may arise out of any dealings with
the Fund. 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 and Sub-Adviser.


      The Board of Trustees has an Audit Committee, a Regulatory & Oversight
Committee and a Governance Committee. Each committee is comprised solely of
Trustees who are not "interested persons" under the Investment Company Act
(the "Independent Trustees"). The members of the Audit Committee are David K.
Downes (Chairman), Mary F. Miller, Joel W. Motley, Russell S. Reynolds, Jr.,
Joseph M. Wikler and Peter I. Wold. The Audit Committee held two meetings
during the Fund's fiscal year ended May 31, 2007. The Audit Committee
furnishes the Board with recommendations regarding the selection of the
Fund's independent registered public accounting firm (also referred to as the
"independent Auditors"). Other main functions of the Audit Committee outlined
in the Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:
(i) reviewing the scope and results of financial statement audits and the
audit fees charged; (ii) reviewing reports from the Fund's independent
Auditors regarding the Fund's internal accounting procedures and controls;
(iii) reviewing reports from the Manager's Internal Audit Department;
(iv) maintaining a separate line of communication between the Fund's
independent Auditors and the Independent Trustees; (v) reviewing the
independence of the Fund's independent Auditors; and (vi) pre-approving the
provision of any audit or non-audit services by the Fund's independent
Auditors, including tax services, that are not prohibited by the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, to the Fund, the Manager and certain affiliates of the
Manager.

      The members of the Regulatory & Oversight Committee are Robert G. Galli
(Chairman), David K. Downes, Matthew P. Fink, Phillip A. Griffiths, Joel W.
Motley and Joseph M. Wikler. The Regulatory & Oversight Committee held two
meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended May 31, 2007. The Regulatory &
Oversight Committee evaluates and reports to the Board on the Fund's
contractual arrangements, including the Investment Advisory and Distribution
Agreements, transfer agency and shareholder service agreements and custodian
agreements as well as the policies and procedures adopted by the Fund to
comply with the Investment Company Act and other applicable law, among other
duties as set forth in the Regulatory & Oversight Committee's Charter.

      The members of the Governance Committee are Phillip A. Griffiths
(Chairman), Matthew P. Fink, Robert G. Galli, Mary F. Miller, Russell S.
Reynolds, Jr. and Peter I. Wold. The Governance Committee held three meetings
during the Fund's fiscal year ended May 31, 2007. The Governance Committee
reviews the Fund's governance guidelines, the adequacy of the Fund's Codes of
Ethics, and develops qualification criteria for Board members consistent with
the Fund's governance guidelines, provides the Board with recommendations for
voting portfolio securities held by the Fund, and monitors the Fund's proxy
voting, among other duties set forth in the Governance Committee's Charter.


      The Governance Committee's functions also include the selection and
nomination of Trustees, including Independent Trustees for election. The
Governance 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 Governance Committee has been able to identify from its
own resources an ample number of qualified candidates. Nonetheless, under the
current policy of the Board, if the Board determines that a vacancy exists or
is likely to exist on the Board, the Governance Committee will consider
candidates for Board membership including those recommended by the Fund's
shareholders. The Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by
Independent Board members or recommended by any other Board members including
Board members affiliated with the Fund's Manager. The Governance Committee
may, upon Board approval, retain an executive search firm to assist in
screening potential candidates. Upon Board approval, the Governance Committee
may also use the services of legal, financial, or other external counsel that
it deems necessary or desirable in the screening process. Shareholders
wishing to submit a nominee for election to the Board may do so by mailing
their submission to the offices of OppenheimerFunds, Inc., Two World
Financial Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York
10281-1008, to the attention of the Board of Trustees of Oppenheimer Baring
Japan Fund, c/o the Secretary of the Fund.

      Submissions should, at a minimum, be accompanied by the following: (1)
the name, address, and business, educational, and/or other pertinent
background of the person being recommended; (2) a statement concerning
whether the person is an "interested person" as defined in the Investment
Company Act; (3) any other information that the Fund would be required to
include in a proxy statement concerning the person if he or she was
nominated; and (4) the name and address of the person submitting the
recommendation and, if that person is a shareholder, the period for which
that person held Fund shares. Shareholders should note that a person who owns
securities issued by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (the parent
company of the Manager) would be deemed an "interested person" under the
Investment Company Act. In addition, certain other relationships with
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company or its subsidiaries, with
registered broker-dealers, or with the Funds' outside legal counsel may cause
a person to be deemed an "interested person."

      The Governance Committee has not established specific qualifications
that it believes must be met by a trustee nominee. In evaluating trustee
nominees, the Governance Committee considers, among other things, an
individual's background, skills, and experience; whether the individual is an
"interested person" as defined in the Investment Company Act; and whether the
individual would be deemed an "audit committee financial expert" within the
meaning of applicable SEC rules. The Governance Committee also considers
whether the individual's background, skills, and experience will complement
the background, skills, and experience of other Trustees and will contribute
to the Board. There are no differences in the manner in which the Governance
Committee evaluates nominees for trustees based on whether the nominee is
recommended by a shareholder. Candidates are expected to provide a mix of
attributes, experience, perspective and skills necessary to effectively
advance the interests of shareholders.

      In  addition  to  being a Board  member  of each of the  Board I  Funds,
Messrs.  Downes,  Galli and  Wruble are  directors  or  trustees  of ten other
portfolios in the Oppenheimer fund complex.


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


      Messrs. Gillespie, Murphy, Petersen, Szilagyi, Vandehey, Wixted and
Zack and Mss. Bloomberg and Ives, who are officers of the Fund, hold the same
offices with one or more of the other Board I Funds. As of September 4, 2007
the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group, owned of record or
beneficially less than 1% of any class of shares of the Fund.The Trustees and
officers of the Fund as a group, did not own more than 1% of the equity
securities of any other share class or of the Fund as a whole. The foregoing
statement does not reflect ownership of shares held of record by an employee
benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares beneficially
owned under that plan by the officers of the Fund listed above. In addition,
none of the Independent Trustees (nor any of their immediate family members)
owns securities of either the Manager, the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor of
the Board I Funds or of any entity directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under common control with the Manager, the Sub-Adviser or
the Distributor.

22.   Compensation paid to Mr. Downes for serving as a director or trustee of

         |X|   Retirement Plan for Trustees.  The Board I Funds adopted a
retirement plan that provides for payments to retired Independent Trustees.
Payments are up to 80% of the average compensation paid during a Trustee's
five years of service in which the highest compensation was received. A
Trustee must serve as director or trustee for any of the Board I Funds for at
least seven years to be eligible for retirement plan benefits and must serve
for at least 15 years to be eligible for the maximum benefit.  The Board has
frozen the retirement plan with respect to new accruals as of December 31,
2006 (the "Freeze Date").  Each Trustee continuing to serve on the Board of
any of the Board I Funds after the Freeze Date (each such Trustee a
"Continuing Board Member") may elect to have his accrued benefit as of the
date (i.e., an amount equivalent to the actuarial present value of his
benefit under the retirement plan as of the Freeze Date) (i) paid at once or
over time, (ii) rolled into the Compensation Deferral Plan described below,
or (iii) in the case of Continuing Board Members having at least 7 years of
service as of the Freeze Date paid in the form of an annual benefit or joint
and survivor annual benefit.  The Board determined to freeze the retirement
plan after considering a recent trend among corporate boards of directors to
forego retirement plan payments in favor of current compensation.

      |X|   Compensation Deferral Plan. The Board of Trustees has adopted a
Compensation Deferral  Plan for Independent Trustees that enables them to
elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual fees they are
entitled to receive from certain Board I 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 amount of compensation deferred and the
performance of the selected funds.


      Deferral of the Trustees' fees under the plan will not materially
affect a Fund's assets, liabilities or net income per share. The plan will
not obligate a 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 SEC, a fund 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 compensation account.

The Manager. The Manager is wholly-owned by Oppenheimer Acquisition Corp., a
holding company controlled by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, a
global, diversified insurance and financial services organization.


      |X|   Code of Ethics. The Fund, the Manager and the Distributor have a
Code of Ethics. The Sub-Adviser also has a Code of Ethics.  The Codes of
Ethics are 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 Codes of Ethics permit
personnel subject to them 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 applicable Code of Ethics is carefully
monitored and enforced by the Manager or the Sub-Adviser.


      Each Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement
filed with the SEC and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public
Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You can obtain information about the hours
of operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at
1.202.551.8090. Each Code of Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's
registration statement on the SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's Internet
website at www.sec.gov. Copies may be obtained, after paying a duplicating
fee, by electronic request at the following E-mail address:
publicinfo@sec.gov., or by writing to the SEC's Public Reference Section,
Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.


|X|   Portfolio Proxy Voting. The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting
Policies and Procedures, which include Proxy Voting Guidelines, under which
the Fund votes proxies relating to securities ("portfolio proxies") held by
the Fund. The Fund's primary consideration in voting portfolio proxies is the
financial interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Fund has retained
an unaffiliated third-party as its agent to vote portfolio proxies in
accordance with the Fund's Proxy Voting Guidelines and to maintain records of
such portfolio proxy voting. The Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and
Procedures include provisions to address conflicts of interest that may arise
between the Fund and the Manager or the Manager's affiliates or business
relationships. Such a conflict of interest may arise, for example, where the
Manager or an affiliate of the Manager manages or administers the assets of a
pension plan or other investment account of the portfolio company soliciting
the proxy or seeks to serve in that capacity. The Manager and its affiliates
generally seek to avoid such conflicts by maintaining separate investment
decision making processes to prevent the sharing of business objectives with
respect to proposed or actual actions regarding portfolio proxy voting
decisions. Additionally, the Manager employs the following two procedures:
(1) if the proposal that gives rise to the conflict is specifically addressed
in the Proxy Voting Guidelines, the Manager will vote the portfolio proxy in
accordance with the Proxy Voting Guidelines, provided that they do not
provide discretion to the Manager on how to vote on the matter; and (2) if
such proposal is not specifically addressed in the Proxy Voting Guidelines or
the Proxy Voting Guidelines provide discretion to the Manager on how to vote,
the Manager will vote in accordance with the third-party proxy voting agent's
general recommended guidelines on the proposal provided that the Manager has
reasonably determined that there is no conflict of interest on the part of
the proxy voting agent. If neither of the previous two procedures provides an
appropriate voting recommendation, the Manager may retain an independent
fiduciary to advise the Manager on how to vote the proposal or may abstain
from voting. The Proxy Voting Guidelines' provisions with respect to certain
routine and non-routine proxy proposals are summarized below:
o     The Fund generally votes with the recommendation of the issuer's

         management on routine matters, including ratification of the
         independent registered public accounting firm, unless circumstances
         indicate otherwise.
o     The Fund evaluates nominees for director nominated by management on a
         case-by-case basis, examining the following factors, among others:
         Composition of the board and key board committees, attendance at
         board meetings, corporate governance provisions and takeover
         activity, long-term company performance and the nominee's investment
         in the company.
o     In general, the Fund opposes anti-takeover proposals and supports the
         elimination, or the ability of shareholders to vote on the
         preservation or elimination, of anti-takeover proposals, absent
         unusual circumstances.
o     The Fund supports shareholder proposals to reduce a super-majority vote
         requirement, and opposes management proposals to add a
         super-majority vote requirement.
o     The Fund opposes proposals to classify the board of directors.
o     The Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.
o     The Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options without shareholder
         approval.
o     The Fund generally considers executive compensation questions such as
         stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary business activity.
         The Fund analyzes stock option plans, paying particular attention to
         their dilutive effect. While the Fund generally supports management
         proposals, the Fund opposes plans it considers to be excessive.


      The Fund is required to file Form N-PX, with its complete proxy voting
record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later than August 31st of each
year. The Fund's Form N-PX filing is available (i) without charge, upon
request, by calling the Fund toll-free at 1.800.525.7048 and (ii) on the
SEC's website at www.sec.gov.


|X|   The Investment Advisory Agreement. The Manager provides investment
advisory and management services to the Fund under an investment advisory
agreement between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager handles its
day-to-day business, and the agreement permits the Manager to enter into
Sub-Advisory agreements with other registered investment advisors to obtain
specialized services for the Fund, as long as the Fund is not obligated to
pay any additional fee for those services. The Manager has retained the
Sub-Adviser pursuant to a separate Sub-Advisory Agreement, described below,
under which the Sub-Adviser buys and sells portfolio securities for the Fund.
The portfolio managers of the Fund are employed by the Sub-Adviser and are
the persons who are principally responsible for the day-to-day management of
the Fund's portfolio.

    The 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. 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
and transfer agent expenses, share issuance costs, certain printing and
registration costs and non-recurring expenses, including litigation costs.
The management fees paid by the Fund to the Manager are calculated at the
rates described in the Prospectus, which are applied to the assets of the
Fund as a whole. The fees are allocated to each class of shares based upon
the relative proportion of the Fund's net assets represented by that class.
The management fee paid by the Fund to the Manager during its last fiscal
period was:


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

    Fiscal Year ended May 31        Management Fees Paid to
                                    OppenheimerFunds, Inc.

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

              2007                            $35,102*

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

        * The Manager, not the Fund, pays the Sub-Adviser an annual
          sub-advisory fee. For fiscal year 2007, the sub-advisory
          fee was $14,040.


      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
in connection with matters to which the agreement relates.

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

The Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company ("MassMutual"), the parent
company of the Manager.

|X|   The Sub-Advisory Agreement. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement between
the Manager and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser shall regularly provide
investment advice with respect to the Fund and invest and reinvest cash,
securities and the property comprising the assets of the Fund. The
Sub-Adviser also agrees to provide assistance in the distribution and
marketing of the Fund.

      Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an
annual fee in monthly installments, based on the average daily net assets of
the Fund. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser under the Sub-Advisory agreement is
paid by the Manager, not by the Fund. The Manager will pay the Sub-Adviser a
fee equal to 40% of the investment management fee received by the Manager
from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee
waivers (voluntary or otherwise). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Manager, without the Sub-Adviser's concurrence, agrees to voluntarily waive a
portion of the investment management fee the Fund is required to pay to the
Manager, the Sub-Adviser's fee hereunder shall be based upon the investment
management fee the Fund would have to pay exclusive of any such waiver agreed
to by the Manager in its sole discretion.

      The Sub-Advisory Agreement states that in the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties
or obligations, the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any error in judgment
or mistake of law and shall not be subject to any expenses or liability to
the Manager, the Fund or any of the Fund's shareholders, in connection with
the matters to which the agreement relates.


Portfolio Manager. The Fund's portfolio is managed by Joji Maki (lead
portfolio manager), Toyokazu Kaneko and Atsushi Yamazaki (referred to as the
"Portfolio Managers"). They are the individuals responsible for the
day-to-day management of the Fund's investments.

      Material Conflicts of Interest:  The potential for material conflicts of
interest  may exist when a  portfolio  manager  has  responsibilities  for the
day-to-day  management of multiple  accounts.  The  Sub-Adviser has identified
areas where material  conflicts of interest are most likely to arise,  and has
adopted  policies and procedures  that it believes are reasonably  designed to
address such conflicts.

      It is possible that an investment  opportunity  may be suitable for both
the Fund and other accounts managed by the Portfolio  Manager,  but may not be
available in sufficient  quantities  for both the Fund and the other  accounts
to participate fully.  Similarly,  there may be limited opportunity to sell an
investment  held  by  the  Fund  and  another  account.  The  Sub-Adviser  has
procedures in place to ensure fair  treatment of clients in the  allocation of
trades.  Trades are  pre-allocated  to the relevant  accounts before the order
is  relayed to the  broker.  Monitoring  is  undertaken  on a sample  basis by
compliance to verify that the procedures  governing  fair  allocation and fair
participation  have been  followed and that there are no related  issues which
give rise to any concerns.

      Other  conflicts  of  interest  may arise as a result  of the  Portfolio
Manager  managing both the Fund's  investments  and the  investments  of other
accounts,  and the above is not a complete  description  of every  conflict of
interest that could be deemed to exist.

      Compensation:  The Sub-Adviser's  philosophy on compensation  focuses on
allowing key employees to participate in the success of the  Sub-Adviser.  The
Sub-Adviser is incentive  oriented,  in the sense that  contribution to client
results is more  important  than an  individual's  title or longevity with the
company in determining  their total  compensation.  There are three components
to the compensation package.

      ?   A competitive base salary.
      ?   An annual bonus. For investment  professionals,  at least 2/3 of the
          bonus is based on investment  performance.  The  Sub-Adviser has put
          in place a detailed  analytical system which tracks the 1 and 3 year
          performance  of the  investment  professionals.  The  remainder is a
          subjective  assessment  of the  individual's  sharing of  investment
          insights  company-wide  and their  efforts  in client  service.  The
          benefits   of   this   approach   are   in  the   transparency   and
          accountability that this methodology brings.
      ?   An equity-based  long-term  incentive award.  Approximately  100 key
          employees,   including  the  majority  of  the   investment   staff,
          participate.   Each  year  a  significant   portion  of  bonuses  is
          invested  directly  in  phantom  equity  in the  Sub-Adviser.  These
          shares  are  valued  quarterly  based on a  formula  linked  to firm
          revenues,  profits,  and assets under  management.  Equity ownership
          in the  Sub-Adviser  is  designed to promote a  partnership  culture
          within the organization.

      Ownership of  Securities:  The Portfolio  Managers do not own any shares
of the Fund.

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, 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 for the services provided. The Manager
need not seek competitive commission 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, in choosing brokers to execute
portfolio transactions for the Fund, the Manager may select brokers (other
than affiliates) that provide both brokerage and research services to the
Fund. The commissions paid to those 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.


Brokerage Practices Followed by the Manager. The Manager allocates brokerage
for the Fund subject to the provisions of the investment advisory agreement
and other applicable rules and procedures described below.


      The Manager's portfolio traders allocate brokerage based upon
recommendations from the Manager's portfolio managers, together with the
portfolio traders' judgment as to the execution capability of the broker or
dealer. 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. In
transactions on foreign exchanges, the Fund may be required to pay fixed
brokerage commissions and therefore would not have the benefit of negotiated
commissions that are available in U.S. markets. Brokerage commissions are
paid primarily for transactions in listed securities or for certain
fixed-income agency transactions executed 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. In an option transaction, the Fund
ordinarily uses the same broker for the purchase or sale of the option and
any transaction in the securities to which the option relates.

      Other accounts advised by the Manager have investment policies similar
to those of the Fund. Those other accounts 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 accounts 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. When possible, the Manager tries to combine concurrent orders
to purchase or sell the same security by more than one of the accounts
managed by the Manager or its affiliates. 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.


      Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act prohibits any fund from
compensating a broker or dealer for promoting or selling the fund's shares by
(1) directing to that broker or dealer any of the fund's portfolio
transactions, or (2) directing any other remuneration to that broker or
dealer, such as commissions, mark-ups, mark downs or other fees from the
fund's portfolio transactions, that were effected by another broker or dealer
(these latter arrangements are considered to be a type of "step-out"
transaction). In other words, a fund and its investment adviser cannot use
the fund's brokerage for the purpose of rewarding broker-dealers for selling
the fund's shares.

      However, the Rule permits funds to effect brokerage transactions
through firms that also sell fund shares, provided that certain procedures
are adopted to prevent a quid pro quo with respect to portfolio brokerage
allocations. As permitted by the Rule, the Manager has adopted procedures
(and the Fund's Board of Trustees has approved those procedures) that permit
the Fund to direct portfolio securities transactions to brokers or dealers
that also promote or sell shares of the Fund, subject to the "best execution"
considerations discussed above. Those procedures are designed to prevent: (1)
the Manager's personnel who effect the Fund's portfolio transactions from
taking into account a broker's or dealer's promotion or sales of the Fund
shares when allocating the Fund's portfolio transactions, and (2) the Fund,
the Manager and the Distributor from entering into agreements or
understandings under which the Manager directs or is expected to direct the
Fund's brokerage directly, or through a "step-out" arrangement, to any broker
or dealer in consideration of that broker's or dealer's promotion or sale of
the Fund's shares or the shares of any of the other Oppenheimer funds.

      The investment advisory agreement permits the Manager to allocate
brokerage for research services. The research services provided by a
particular broker may be useful both to the Fund and to one or more of the
other accounts advised by the Manager or its affiliates. Investment research
may be supplied to the Manager by the broker or 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, analytical
software 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.


      Although the Manager currently does not do so, the Board of Trustees
may permit 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 may also permit 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 broaden the scope and
supplement 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.

      During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007, the Fund paid the total
brokerage commissions indicated in the chart below. During the fiscal year
ended May 31, 2007, the Fund did not execute any transactions through or pay
any commissions to firms that provide research services.

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

            2007                               $10,776

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

  *  Amounts do not include spreads or commissions on principal
     transactions on a net trade basis.


     Brokerage Practices Followed by the Sub-Adviser. Under the Sub-Advisory
Agreement and as permitted by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, the Sub-Adviser may cause a Fund to pay a broker-dealer that provides
brokerage and research services to the Sub-adviser an amount of commission
for effecting a securities transaction for the Fund in excess of the amount
other broker-dealers would have charged for the transaction if the
Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that the greater commission is
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services
provided by the executing broker-dealer viewed in terms of either a
particular transaction or the Sub-Adviser's overall responsibilities to the
Fund and to its other clients. The term "brokerage and research services"
includes: providing advice as to the value of securities, the advisability of
investing in, purchasing, or selling securities, and the availability of
securities or of purchasers or sellers of securities; furnishing analyses and
reports concerning issuers, industries, securities, economic factors and
trends, portfolio strategy and the performance of accounts; and effecting
securities transactions and performing functions incidental thereto such as
clearance and settlement.

     Research provided by brokers is used for the benefit of all of the
Sub-Adviser's clients and not solely or necessarily for the benefit of the
Fund. The Sub-Adviser attempts to evaluate the quality of research provided
by brokers. Results of this effort are sometimes used by the sub-advisers as
a consideration in the selection of brokers to execute portfolio
transactions.

     The investment advisory fee that the Fund pays on behalf of the Fund to
the Manager will not be reduced as a consequence of the Sub-Adviser's receipt
of brokerage and research services. To the extent the Fund's portfolio
transactions are used to obtain such services, the brokerage commissions paid
by the Fund will exceed those that might otherwise be paid, by an amount
which cannot now be determined. Such services would be useful and of value to
the Sub-Adviser in serving both the Fund and other clients and, conversely,
such services obtained by the placement of brokerage business of other
clients would be useful to the Sub-Adviser in carrying out its obligations to
the Fund.

     Subject to the overriding objective of obtaining the best execution of
orders, the Fund may use broker-dealer affiliates of the Sub-Adviser to
effect portfolio brokerage transactions under procedures adopted by the
Board. Pursuant to these procedures, the commission rates and other
remuneration paid to the affiliated broker-dealer must be fair and reasonable
in comparison to those of other broker-dealers for comparable transactions
involving similar securities being purchased or sold during a comparable time
period. This standard would allow the affiliated broker or dealer to receive
no more than the remuneration which would be expected to be received by an
unaffiliated broker.

     The investment advisory agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement permit
the Manager and the Sub-Adviser 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 Sub-Adviser 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 Sub-Adviser's other
accounts. Investment research may be supplied to the Sub-Adviser 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, analytical
software and similar products and services. If a research service also
assists the Sub-Adviser in a non-research capacity (such as bookkeeping or
other administrative functions), then only the percentage or component that
provides assistance to the Sub-Adviser in the investment decision-making
process may be paid in commission dollars.

      The Board of Trustees may permit the Sub-Adviser to use stated
commissions on secondary fixed-income agency trades to obtain research if the
broker represents to the Sub-Adviser 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 Sub-Adviser 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 Sub-Adviser. That research
provides additional views and comparisons for consideration, and helps the
Sub-Adviser 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 Sub-Adviser provides information to the Manager and the Board about the
commissions paid to brokers furnishing such services, together with the
Sub-Adviser'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, the
Distributor acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public
offering of the Fund's classes of shares. 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.


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

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 pays 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, including a majority of the Independent Trustees(1), cast in person
at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan.

      Under the Plans, the Manager and the Distributor may make payments to
affiliates.  In their sole discretion, they may also from time to time make
substantial payments from their own resources, which include the profits the
Manager derives from the advisory fees it receives from the Fund, to
compensate brokers, dealers, financial institutions and other intermediaries
for providing distribution assistance and/or administrative services or that
otherwise promote sales of the Fund's shares.  These payments, some of which
may be referred to as "revenue sharing," may relate to the Fund's inclusion
on a financial intermediary's preferred list of funds offered to its clients.


      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 and its
Independent 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 Independent 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 and the Independent 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 72 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 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.

      Each plan states that while it is in effect, the selection and
nomination of those Trustees of the Fund who are not "interested persons" of
the Fund is committed to the discretion of the Independent Trustees. This
does not prevent the involvement of others in the selection and nomination
process as long as the final decision as to selection or nomination is
approved by a majority of the Independent Trustees.


      Under the plans for a class, no payment will be made to any recipient
in any period 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 Independent Trustees.

      Class A Service Plan Fees. Under the Class A service plan, the
Distributor currently uses the fees it receives from the Fund to pay brokers,
dealers and other financial institutions (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 Distributor makes payments to recipients periodically at an
annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual Class A share net
assets held in the accounts of the recipients or their customers.

      The Distributor does not receive or retain the service fee on Class A
shares in accounts for which the Distributor has been listed as the
broker-dealer of record. 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, except in the case of shares purchased prior
to March 1, 2007 with respect to certain group retirement plans that were
established prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement plans"). Prior
to March 1, 2007, the Distributor paid the 0.25% service fee for
grandfathered retirement plans in advance for the first year and retained the
first year's service fee paid by the Fund with respect to those shares. After
the shares were held for a year, the Distributor paid the ongoing service
fees to recipients on a periodic basis. Such shares are subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge if they are redeemed within 18 months. If
Class A shares purchased in a grandfathered retirement plan prior to March 1,
2007 are redeemed within 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 those fees. For
Class A shares purchased in grandfathered retirement plans on or after March
1, 2007, the Distributor does not make any payment in advance and does not
retain the service fee for the first year. Such shares are not subject to the
contingent deferred sales charge.

      For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007 payments under the Class A plan
totaled $4,446 all of which was paid by the Distributor to recipients, and
included $11 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's parent company.  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 Distribution and Service Plan Fees. Under
each plan, distribution and service 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|X|       period. Each plan provides
for the Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate, 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
periodic basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after Class B, Class C and Class N shares are purchased. After the
first year Class B, Class C or Class N shares are outstanding, after their
purchase, the Distributor makes service fee payments periodically 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. Class B, Class C or Class N
shares may not be purchased by a new investor directly from the Distributor
without the investor designating another registered broker-dealer.  If a
current investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an
existing account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the
broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the
investor's agent to purchase the shares.  In those cases, the Distributor
retains the asset-based sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N
shares, but does not retain any service fees as to the assets represented by
that account.

      The asset-based sales charge and service fees increase Class B and
Class C expenses by 1.00% and the asset-based sales charge and service fees
increase Class N expenses by 0.50% of the net assets per year of the
respective classes.


      The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B 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 or Class
N service fee and the asset-based sales charge to the dealer periodically in
lieu of paying the sales concession and service fee in advance at the time of
purchase.

      The asset-based sales charge 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 charge 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.

      During a calendar year, 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 asset-based sales charges paid to the Distributor by the Fund under
the distribution and service plans. Those excess expenses are carried over on
the Distributor's books and may be recouped from asset-based sales charge
payments from the Fund in future years. However, the Distributor has
voluntarily agreed to cap the amount of expenses under the plans that may be
carried over from year to year and recouped that relate to (i) expenses the
Distributor has incurred that represent compensation and expenses of its
sales personnel and (ii) other direct distribution costs it has incurred,
such as sales literature, state registration fees, advertising and
prospectuses used to offer Fund shares. The cap on the carry-over of those
categories of expenses is set at 0.70% of annual gross sales of shares of the
Fund. If those categories of expenses exceed the capped amount, the
Distributor bears the excess costs. If the Class B, Class C or Class N plan
were to be terminated by the Fund, the Fund's Board of Trustees may allow the
Fund to continue payments of the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor
for distributing shares prior to the termination of the plan.

Payments to Fund Intermediaries


      Financial intermediaries may receive various forms of compensation or
reimbursement from the Fund in the form of 12b-1 plan payments as described
in the preceding section of this SAI. They may also receive payments or
concessions from the Distributor, derived from sales charges paid by the
clients of the financial intermediary, also as described in this SAI.
Additionally, the Manager and/or the Distributor (including their affiliates)
may make payments to financial intermediaries in connection with their
offering and selling shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds,
providing marketing or promotional support, transaction processing and/or
administrative services. Among the financial intermediaries that may receive
these payments are brokers and dealers who sell and/or hold shares of the
Fund, banks (including bank trust departments), registered investment
advisers, insurance companies, retirement plan and qualified tuition program
administrators, third party administrators, and other institutions that have
selling, servicing or similar arrangements with the Manager or Distributor.
The payments to intermediaries vary by the types of product sold, the
features of the Fund share class and the role played by the intermediary.


      Possible types of payments to financial intermediaries include, without
limitation, those discussed below.

o     Payments made by the Fund, or by an investor buying or selling shares
         of the Fund may include:

o     depending on the share class that the investor selects, contingent
              deferred sales charges or initial front-end sales charges, all
              or a portion of which front-end sales charges are payable by
              the Distributor to financial intermediaries (see "About Your
              Account" in the Prospectus);
o     ongoing asset-based payments attributable to the share class selected,
              including fees payable under the Fund's distribution and/or
              service plans adopted under Rule 12b-1 under the Investment
              Company Act, which are paid from the Fund's assets and
              allocated to the class of shares to which the plan relates (see
              "About the Fund -- Distribution and Service Plans" above);
o     shareholder servicing payments for providing omnibus accounting,
              recordkeeping, networking, sub-transfer agency or other
              administrative or shareholder services, including retirement
              plan and 529 plan administrative services fees, which are paid
              from the assets of a Fund as reimbursement to the Manager or
              Distributor for expenses they incur on behalf of the Fund.

o     Payments made by the Manager or Distributor out of their respective
         resources and assets, which may include profits the Manager derives
         from investment advisory fees paid by the Fund. These payments are
         made at the discretion of the Manager and/or the Distributor. These
         payments, often referred to as "revenue sharing" payments, may be in
         addition to the payments by the Fund listed above.

o     These types of payments may reflect compensation for marketing support,
              support provided in offering the Fund or other Oppenheimer
              funds through certain trading platforms and programs,
              transaction processing or other services;

o     The Manager and Distributor each may also pay other compensation to the
              extent the payment is not prohibited by law or by any
              self-regulatory agency, such as FINRA. Payments are made based
              on the guidelines established by the Manager and Distributor,
              subject to applicable law.

      These payments may provide an incentive to financial intermediaries to
actively market or promote the sale of shares of the Fund or other
Oppenheimer funds, or to support the marketing or promotional efforts of the
Distributor in offering shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds. In
addition, some types of payments may provide a financial intermediary with an
incentive to recommend the Fund or a particular share class. Financial
intermediaries may earn profits on these payments, since the amount of the
payment may exceed the cost of providing the service. Certain of these
payments are subject to limitations under applicable law. Financial
intermediaries may categorize and disclose these arrangements to their
clients and to members of the public in a manner different from the
disclosures in the Fund's Prospectus and this SAI. You should ask your
financial intermediary for information about any payments it receives from
the Fund, the Manager or the Distributor and any services it provides, as
well as the fees and commissions it charges.


      Although brokers or dealers that sell Fund shares may also act as a
broker or dealer in connection with the execution of the purchase or sale of
portfolio securities by the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds, a financial
intermediary's sales of shares of the Fund or such other Oppenheimer funds is
not a consideration for the Manager when choosing brokers or dealers to
effect portfolio transactions for the Fund or such other Oppenheimer funds.

      Revenue sharing payments can pay for distribution-related or asset
retention items including, without limitation,

o     transactional support, one-time charges for setting up access for the
         Fund or other Oppenheimer funds on particular trading systems, and
         paying the intermediary's networking fees;
o     program support, such as expenses related to including the Oppenheimer
         funds in retirement plans, college savings plans, fee-based advisory
         or wrap fee programs, fund "supermarkets", bank or trust company
         products or insurance companies' variable annuity or variable life
         insurance products;
o     placement on the dealer's list of offered funds and providing
         representatives of the Distributor with access to a financial
         intermediary's sales meetings, sales representatives and management
         representatives.

      Additionally, the Manager or Distributor may make payments for firm
support, such as business planning assistance, advertising, and educating a
financial intermediary's sales personnel about the Oppenheimer funds and
shareholder financial planning needs.


      For the year ended December 31, 2006, the following financial
intermediaries that are broker-dealers offering shares of the Oppenheimer
funds, and/or their respective affiliates, received revenue sharing or
similar distribution-related payments from the Manager or Distributor for
marketing or program support:

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. The charts below show the
Fund's performance as of the Fund's most recent fiscal year end. You can
obtain current performance information by calling the Fund's Transfer Agent
at 1.800.225.5677 or by visiting the OppenheimerFunds Internet website at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com.


      The Fund's illustrations of its performance data in advertisements must
comply with rules of the SEC. Those rules describe the types of performance
data that may be used and how it is to be calculated. In general, any
advertisement by the Fund of its performance data must include the average
annual total returns for the advertised class of shares of the Fund.

      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     The Fund's performance returns may not reflect the effect of taxes on
         dividends and capital gains distributions.
o     An investment in the Fund is not insured by the FDIC or any other
         government agency.
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 those
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" in the formula below) (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 1.0%
contingent deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year
period. For Class N shares, the 1.0% contingent deferred sales charge is
deducted for returns for the one-year and life-of-class periods, as
applicable. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.


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


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


o     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:


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

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


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

  P


o     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

o     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 SAI.
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
is a widely-recognized independent mutual fund monitoring service. Lipper
monitors the performance of regulated investment companies, including the
Fund, and ranks their performance for various periods in categories based on
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.


|X|   Morningstar Ratings. From time to time the Fund may publish the star
rating of the performance of its classes of shares by Morningstar, Inc.
("Morningstar"), an independent mutual fund monitoring service. Morningstar
rates mutual funds in their specialized market sector.


      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.

      |X|   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 price 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. 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.

When you purchase shares of the Fund, your ownership interest in the shares
of the Fund will be recorded as a book entry on the records of the Fund.  The
Fund will not issue or re-register physical share certificates.


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.
Accounts established prior to November 1, 2002 will remain at $25 for
additional purchases. 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 "NYSE"). The NYSE 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 NYSE, 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 under Right of Accumulation and
Letters of Intent 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 SAI because the Distributor or dealer or broker incurs
little or no selling expenses.

the Distributor acts as the distributor and currently include the following:

      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.
Under certain circumstances described in this SAI, redemption proceeds of
certain money market fund shares may be subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge.

Letters of Intent.  Under a Letter of Intent ("Letter"), you can reduce the
sales charge rate that applies to your purchases of Class A shares if you
purchase Class A, Class B or Class C shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer
funds during a 13-month period. The total amount of your purchases of Class
A, Class B and Class C shares will determine the sales charge rate that
applies to your Class A share purchases during that period. Purchases made up
to 90 days before the date that you submit a Letter will be included in that
determination. Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. and
Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on which you have not paid a sales charge and any
Class N shares you purchase, or may have purchased, will not be counted
towards satisfying the purchases specified in a Letter.


      A Letter is an investor's statement in writing to the Distributor of
his or her intention to purchase a specified value of Class A, Class B and
Class C shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds during a 13-month
period (the "Letter period"). The Letter states the investor's intention to
make the aggregate amount of purchases of shares which will equal or exceed
the amount specified in the Letter. Purchases made by reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions and purchases made at net asset
value (i.e. without paying a front-end or contingent deferred sales charge)
do not count toward satisfying the amount of the Letter.

      Each purchase of Class A shares under the Letter will be made at the
offering price (including the sales charge) that would apply to a single
lump-sum purchase of shares in the amount intended to be purchased under the
Letter.


      In submitting a Letter, the investor makes no commitment to purchase
shares. However, if the investor's purchases of shares within the Letter
period, when added to the value (at offering price) of the investor's
holdings of shares on the last day of that period, do not equal or exceed the
intended purchase amount, the investor agrees to pay the additional amount of
sales charge applicable to such purchases. That amount is described in "Terms
of Escrow," below (those terms may be amended by the Distributor from time to
time). The investor agrees that shares equal in value to 5% of the intended
purchase amount will be held in escrow by the Transfer Agent subject to the
Terms of Escrow. Also, the investor agrees to be bound by the terms of the
Prospectus, this SAI and the application used for a Letter. If those terms
are amended, as they may be from time to time by the Fund, the investor
agrees to be bound by the amended terms and that those amendments will apply
automatically to existing Letters.


      If the total eligible purchases made during the Letter period do not
equal or exceed the intended purchase amount, the concessions previously paid
to the dealer of record for the account and the amount of sales charge
retained by the Distributor will be adjusted to the rates applicable to
actual total purchases. If total eligible purchases during the Letter period
exceed the intended purchase amount and exceed the amount needed to qualify
for the next sales charge rate reduction set forth in the Prospectus, the
sales charges paid will be adjusted to the lower rate. That adjustment will
be made only if and when the dealer returns to the Distributor the excess of
the amount of concessions allowed or paid to the dealer over the amount of
concessions that apply to the actual amount of purchases. The excess
concessions returned to the Distributor will be used to purchase additional
shares for the investor's account at the net asset value per share in effect
on the date of such purchase, promptly after the Distributor's receipt
thereof.

      The Transfer Agent will not hold shares in escrow for purchases of
shares of Oppenheimer funds by OppenheimerFunds prototype 401(k) plans under
a Letter. If the intended purchase amount under a Letter entered into by an
OppenheimerFunds prototype 401(k) plan is not purchased by the plan by the
end of the Letter period, there will be no adjustment of concessions paid to
the broker-dealer or financial institution of record for accounts held in the
name of that plan.

      In determining the total amount of purchases made under a Letter,
shares redeemed by the investor prior to the termination of the Letter period
will be deducted. It is the responsibility of the dealer of record and/or the
investor to advise the Distributor about the Letter when placing any purchase
orders for the investor during the Letter period. All of such purchases must
be made through the Distributor.

      |X|   Terms of Escrow That Apply to Letters of Intent.

      1. Out of the initial purchase (or subsequent purchases if necessary)
made pursuant to a Letter, shares of the Fund equal in value up to 5% of the
intended purchase amount specified in the Letter shall be held in escrow by
the Transfer Agent. For example, if the intended purchase amount is $50,000,
the escrow shall be shares valued in the amount of $2,500 (computed at the
offering price adjusted for a $50,000 purchase). Any dividends and capital
gains distributions on the escrowed shares will be credited to the investor's
account.

      2. If the total minimum investment specified under the Letter is
completed within the 13-month Letter period, the escrowed shares will be
promptly released to the investor.

      3. If, at the end of the 13-month Letter period the total purchases
pursuant to the Letter are less than the intended purchase amount specified
in the Letter, the investor must remit to the Distributor an amount equal to
the difference between the dollar amount of sales charges actually paid and
the amount of sales charges which would have been paid if the total amount
purchased had been made at a single time. That sales charge adjustment will
apply to any shares redeemed prior to the completion of the Letter. If the
difference in sales charges is not paid within twenty days after a request
from the Distributor or the dealer, the Distributor will, within sixty days
of the expiration of the Letter, redeem the number of escrowed shares
necessary to realize such difference in sales charges. Full and fractional
shares remaining after such redemption will be released from escrow. If a
request is received to redeem escrowed shares prior to the payment of such
additional sales charge, the sales charge will be withheld from the
redemption proceeds.

      4. By signing the Letter, the investor irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Transfer Agent as attorney-in-fact to surrender for redemption
any or all escrowed shares.

5.    The shares eligible for purchase under the Letter (or the holding of
which may be counted toward completion of a Letter) include:
(a)   Class A shares sold with a front-end sales charge or subject to a Class
            A contingent deferred sales charge,
(b)   Class B and Class C shares of other Oppenheimer funds acquired subject
            to a contingent deferred sales charge, and
(c)   Class A, Class B or Class C shares acquired by exchange of either (1)
            Class A shares of one of the other Oppenheimer funds that were
            acquired subject to a Class A initial or contingent deferred
            sales charge or (2) Class B or Class C shares of one of the other
            Oppenheimer funds that were acquired subject to a contingent
            deferred sales charge.

      6. Shares held in escrow hereunder will automatically be exchanged for
shares of another fund to which an exchange is requested, as described in the
section of the Prospectus entitled "How to Exchange Shares" and the escrow
will be transferred to that other fund.


Asset Builder Plans. As explained in the Prospectus, you must initially
establish your account with $500. Subsequently, you can establish an Asset
Builder Plan to automatically purchase additional shares directly from a bank
account for as little as $50. For those accounts established prior to
November 1, 2002 and which have previously established Asset Builder Plans,
additional purchases will remain at $25. Shares purchased by Asset Builder
Plan payments from bank accounts are subject to the redemption restrictions
for recent purchases described in the Prospectus. Asset Builder Plans are
available only if your bank is an ACH member. Asset Builder Plans may not be
used to buy shares for OppenheimerFunds employer-sponsored qualified
retirement accounts.


      If you make payments from your bank account to purchase shares of the
Fund, your bank account will be debited automatically. Normally the debit
will be made two business days prior to the investment dates you selected on
your application. Neither the Distributor, the Transfer Agent nor the Fund
shall be responsible for any delays in purchasing shares that result from
delays in ACH transmissions.

      Before you establish Asset Builder payments, you should obtain a
prospectus of the selected fund(s) from your financial advisor (or the
Distributor) and request an application from the Distributor. Complete the
application and return it. You may change the amount of your Asset Builder
payment or you can terminate these automatic investments at any time by
writing to the Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent requires a reasonable
period (approximately 10 days) after receipt of your instructions to
implement them. The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue
offering Asset Builder plans at any time without prior notice.


      Retirement Plans.  Certain types of retirement plans are entitled to
purchase shares of the Fund without sales charges or at reduced sales charge
rates, as described in Appendix B to this SAI. 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 had less than $1 million in assets invested in applicable investments
(other than assets invested in money market funds), then the retirement plan
may purchase only Class C shares of the Oppenheimer funds. If, on the date
the plan sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record keeping service agreement,
the plan had $1 million or more in assets but less than $5 million in assets
invested in applicable investments (other than assets invested in money
market funds), then the retirement plan may purchase only Class N shares of
the Oppenheimer funds. If, on the date the plan sponsor signed the Merrill
Lynch record keeping service agreement, the plan had $5 million or more in
assets invested in applicable investments (other than assets invested in
money market funds), then the retirement plan may purchase only Class A
shares of the Oppenheimer funds.

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 accounts in 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 a purchase order of more than $100,000
for Class B shares or a purchase order of $1 million or more to purchase
Class C shares on behalf of a single investor (not including dealer "street
name" or omnibus accounts).

Class B, Class C or Class N shares may not be purchased by a new investor
directly from the Distributor without the investor designating another
registered broker-dealer.


      Class A Shares Subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. Under a
special arrangement with the Distributor, 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 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, 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 Class A share purchases by
a retirement plan that are made with the redemption proceeds of Class N
shares of an Oppenheimer fund 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 72 months after 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 six years.

      |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 SAI) 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 Retirement Plans with at least 100 eligible employees or $500,000 or
            more in plan assets,
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).

Fund Account Fees. As stated in the Prospectus, a $12 annual "Minimum Balance
Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a share balance valued under $500.
The Minimum Balance Fee is automatically deducted from each such Fund account
in September.

      Listed below are certain cases in which the Fund has elected, in its
discretion, not to assess the Fund Account Fees.  These exceptions are
subject to change:
o     A fund account whose shares were acquired after September 30th of the
            prior year;
o     A fund account that has a balance below $500 due to the automatic
            conversion of shares from Class B to Class A shares. However,
            once all Class B shares held in the account have been converted
            to Class A shares the new account balance may become subject to
            the Minimum Balance Fee;
o     Accounts of shareholders who elect to access their account documents
            electronically via eDoc Direct;
o     A fund account that has only certificated shares and, has a balance
            below $500 and is being escheated;
o     Accounts of shareholders that are held by broker-dealers under the NSCC
            Fund/SERV system;
o     Accounts held under the Oppenheimer Legacy Program and/or holding
            certain Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds;
o     Omnibus accounts holding shares pursuant to the Pinnacle, Ascender,

            Custom Plus, Record(k)eeper Pro and Pension Alliance Retirement
            Plan programs; and

o     A fund account that falls below the $500 minimum solely due to market
            fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the
            fee is deducted.

         Accounts held in the Portfolio Builder Program which is offered
            through certain broker/dealers to qualifying shareholders.

discretion.


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 NYSE on each day that the NYSE 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 NYSE 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 SAI mean "Eastern time." The NYSE'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 NYSE members may conduct trading in certain
securities on days on which the NYSE 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. Additionally, trading on many foreign
stock exchanges and over-the-counter markets normally is completed before the
close of the NYSE.

      Changes in the values of securities traded on foreign exchanges or
markets as a result of events that occur after the prices of those securities
are determined, but before the close of the NYSE, will not be reflected in
the Fund's calculation of its net asset values that day unless the Manager
determines that the event is likely to effect a material change in the value
of the security. The Manager, or an internal valuation committee established
by the Manager, as applicable, may establish a valuation, under procedures
established by the Board and subject to the approval, ratification and
confirmation by the Board at its next ensuing meeting.


      |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     Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange are valued as
follows:
(1)   if last sale information is regularly reported, they are valued at the

               last reported sale price on the principal exchange on which
               they are traded, on that day, or

(2)   if last sale information is not available on a valuation date, they are
               valued at the last reported sale price preceding the valuation
               date if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and
               "asked" prices on the valuation date or, if not,  at the
               closing "bid" price on the valuation date.
o     Equity securities traded on a foreign securities exchange generally are
valued in one of the following ways:
(1)   at the last sale price available to the pricing service approved by the
               Board of Trustees, or
(2)   at the last sale price obtained by the Manager from the report of the
               principal exchange on which the security is traded at its last
               trading session on or immediately before the valuation date, or
(3)   at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices obtained from the
               principal exchange on which the security is traded or, on the
               basis of reasonable inquiry, from two market makers in the
               security.
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).

      In the case of U.S. government securities, mortgage-backed securities,
corporate bonds and foreign government securities, when last sale information
is not generally available, the Manager may use pricing services approved by
the Board of Trustees. The pricing service may use "matrix" comparisons to
the prices for comparable instruments on the basis of quality, yield and
maturity. Other special factors may be involved (such as the tax-exempt
status of the interest paid by municipal securities). The Manager will
monitor the accuracy of the pricing services. That monitoring may include
comparing prices used for portfolio valuation to actual sales prices of
selected securities.

      The closing prices in the New York foreign exchange market on a
particular business day that are provided to the Manager by a bank, dealer or
pricing service that the Manager has determined to be reliable are used to
value foreign currency, including forward contracts, and to convert to U.S.
dollars securities that are denominated in foreign currency.


      Puts, calls, and futures are valued at the last sale price on the
principal exchange on which they are traded, as determined by a pricing
service approved by the Board of Trustees or by the Manager. If there were no
sales that day, they shall be valued at the last sale price on the preceding
trading day if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked"
prices on the principal exchange on the valuation date. If not, the value
shall be the closing bid price on the principal exchange on the valuation
date. If the put, call or future is not traded on an exchange, it shall be
valued by the mean between "bid" and "asked" prices obtained by the Manager
from two active market makers. In certain cases that may be at the "bid"
price if no "asked" price is available.


      When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received
is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset. An
equivalent credit is included in the liability section. The credit is
adjusted ("marked-to-market") to reflect the current market value of the
option. In determining the Fund's gain on investments, if a call or put
written by the Fund is exercised, the proceeds are increased by the premium
received. If a call or put written by the Fund expires, the Fund has a gain
in the amount of the premium. If the Fund enters into a closing purchase
transaction, it will have a gain or loss, depending on whether the premium
received was more or less than the cost of the closing transaction. If the
Fund exercises a put it holds, the amount the Fund receives on its sale of
the underlying investment is reduced by the amount of premium paid by the
Fund.


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 or 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, Class N or Class Y 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.

      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 $200 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 SAI. 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 NYSE 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 NYSE closes. Normally, the NYSE closes at
4:00 p.m., but may do so earlier on some days.

      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.

Automatic Withdrawal and Exchange Plans. Investors owning shares of the Fund
valued at $5,000 or more can authorize the Transfer Agent to redeem shares
(having a value of at least $50) automatically on a monthly, quarterly,
semi-annual or annual basis under an Automatic Withdrawal Plan. Shares will
be redeemed three business days prior to the date requested by the
shareholder for receipt of the payment. Automatic withdrawals of up to $1,500
per month may be requested by telephone if payments are to be made by check
payable to all shareholders of record. Payments must also be sent to the
address of record for the account and the address must not have been changed
within the prior 30 days. Required minimum distributions from
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored retirement plans may not be arranged on this
basis.

      Payments are normally made by check, but shareholders having
AccountLink privileges (see "How To Buy Shares") may arrange to have
Automatic Withdrawal Plan payments transferred to the bank account designated
on the account application or by signature-guaranteed instructions sent to
the Transfer Agent. Shares are normally redeemed pursuant to an Automatic
Withdrawal Plan three business days before the payment transmittal date you
select in the account application. If a contingent deferred sales charge
applies to the redemption, the amount of the check or payment will be reduced
accordingly.


      The Fund cannot guarantee receipt of a payment on the date requested.
The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering these
plans at any time without prior notice. Because of the sales charge assessed
on Class A share purchases, shareholders should not make regular additional
Class A share purchases while participating in an Automatic Withdrawal Plan.
Class B, Class C and Class N shareholders should not establish automatic
withdrawal plans, because of the potential imposition of the contingent
deferred sales charge on such withdrawals (except where the Class B, Class C
or Class N contingent deferred sales charge is waived as described in
Appendix B to this SAI).


      By requesting an Automatic Withdrawal or Exchange Plan, the shareholder
agrees to the terms and conditions that apply to such plans, as stated below.
These provisions may be amended from time to time by the Fund and/or the
Distributor. When adopted, any amendments will automatically apply to
existing Plans.


      |X|   Automatic Exchange Plans. Shareholders can authorize the Transfer
Agent to automatically exchange a pre-determined amount of shares of the Fund
for shares (of the same class) of other Oppenheimer funds that offer the
exchange privilege on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis under
an Automatic Exchange Plan. The minimum amount that may be exchanged to each
other fund account is $50. Instructions should be provided on the
OppenheimerFunds application or signature-guaranteed instructions. Exchanges
made under these plans are subject to the restrictions that apply to
exchanges as set forth in "How to Exchange Shares" in the Prospectus and
below in this SAI.


      Automatic Withdrawal Plans. Fund shares will be redeemed as necessary
to meet withdrawal payments. Shares acquired without a sales charge will be
redeemed first. Shares acquired with reinvested dividends and capital gains
distributions will be redeemed next, followed by shares acquired with a sales
charge, to the extent necessary to make withdrawal payments. Depending upon
the amount withdrawn, the investor's principal may be depleted. Payments made
under these plans should not be considered as a yield or income on your
investment.

      The Transfer Agent will administer the investor's Automatic Withdrawal
Plan as agent for the shareholder(s) (the "Planholder") who executed the plan
authorization and application submitted to the Transfer Agent. Neither the
Fund nor the Transfer Agent shall incur any liability to the Planholder for
any action taken or not taken by the Transfer Agent in good faith to
administer the plan. Share certificates will not be issued for shares of the
Fund purchased for and held under the plan, but the Transfer Agent will
credit all such shares to the account of the Planholder on the records of the
Fund. Any share certificates held by a Planholder may be surrendered
unendorsed to the Transfer Agent with the plan application so that the shares
represented by the certificate may be held under the plan.

      For accounts subject to Automatic Withdrawal Plans, distributions of
capital gains must be reinvested in shares of the Fund, which will be done at
net asset value without a sales charge. Dividends on shares held in the
account may be paid in cash or reinvested.

      Shares will be redeemed to make withdrawal payments at the net asset
value per share determined on the redemption date. Checks or AccountLink
payments representing the proceeds of Plan withdrawals will normally be
transmitted three business days prior to the date selected for receipt of the
payment, according to the choice specified in writing by the Planholder.
Receipt of payment on the date selected cannot be guaranteed.

      The amount and the interval of disbursement payments and the address to
which checks are to be mailed or AccountLink payments are to be sent may be
changed at any time by the Planholder by writing to the Transfer Agent. The
Planholder should allow at least two weeks' time after mailing such
notification for the requested change to be put in effect. The Planholder
may, at any time, instruct the Transfer Agent by written notice to redeem
all, or any part of, the shares held under the plan. That notice must be in
proper form in accordance with the requirements of the then-current
Prospectus of the Fund. In that case, the Transfer Agent will redeem the
number of shares requested at the net asset value per share in effect and
will mail a check for the proceeds to the Planholder.

      The Planholder may terminate a plan at any time by writing to the
Transfer Agent. The Fund may also give directions to the Transfer Agent to
terminate a plan. The Transfer Agent will also terminate a plan upon its
receipt of evidence satisfactory to it that the Planholder has died or is
legally incapacitated. Upon termination of a plan by the Transfer Agent or
the Fund, shares that have not been redeemed will be held in uncertificated
form in the name of the Planholder. The account will continue as a
dividend-reinvestment, uncertificated account unless and until proper
instructions are received from the Planholder, his or her executor or
guardian, or another authorized person.

      If the Transfer Agent ceases to act as transfer agent for the Fund, the
Planholder will be deemed to have appointed any successor transfer agent to
act as agent in administering the plan.

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:

o     Shares of the Fund acquired 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
      the same class of any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which you may
      exchange shares.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of the same class of any of the
      other Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,

      until after the expiration of the warranty period (3/3/2011).
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund III may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of the same class of any of the
      other Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,
      shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of other Oppenheimer
      funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund
      III until after the expiration of the warranty period (12/16/2011).

o     Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Developing

      investment of $50,000. An existing shareholder of that fund may make
      additional exchanges into that fund with as little as $50.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund may be acquired
      only by existing shareholders of that fund. Existing shareholders may

      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 Oppenheimer
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 Oppenheimer 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     Except with respect to the Class B shares described in the next two
paragraphs, the 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 B shares of Oppenheimer Limited Term California
Municipal Fund, Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund, Oppenheimer Limited
Term Municipal Fund, Limited Term New York Municipal Fund and Oppenheimer
Senior Floating Rate Fund, the Class B contingent deferred sales charge is
imposed on the acquired shares if they are redeemed within five years of the
initial purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

o     With respect to Class B shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves that were
acquired through the exchange of Class B shares initially purchased in the
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund, the Class B contingent deferred sales
charge is imposed on the acquired shares if they are redeemed within five
years of that initial purchase.

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|   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.

      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 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 features that are available in the new fund (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.


      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
SAI, 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.

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
and Class Y 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 SAI is based on tax law
in effect on the date of the Prospectus and this SAI. 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 advisors 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.


      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.

      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.

      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. The Fund may be subject to U.S. Federal income tax, and an interest
charge, on certain distributions or gains from the sale of shares of a
foreign company considered to be a PFIC, even if those amounts are paid out
as dividends to shareholders. To avoid imposition of the interest charge, the
Fund may elect to "mark to market" all PFIC shares that it holds at the end
of each taxable year. In that case, any increase or decrease in the value of
those shares would be recognized as ordinary income or as ordinary loss (but
only to the extent of previously recognized "mark-to-market" gains).

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

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

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

      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.

      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. Any tax withheld by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S.
Treasury and all income and any tax withheld is identified in reports mailed
to shareholders in March of each year with a copy sent to the IRS.

      If the ordinary income dividends from the Fund are effectively
connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign
person may claim an exemption from the U.S. tax described above provided the
Fund obtains a properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status.
If the foreign person fails to provide a certification of his/her foreign
status, the Fund will be required to withhold U.S. tax at a rate of 28% on
ordinary income dividends, capital gains distributions and the proceeds of
the redemption of shares, paid to any foreign person. Any tax withheld by the
Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S. Treasury and all income and any tax
withheld is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each
year with a copy sent to the IRS.

      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 into which you may exchange
shares. 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. 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 may be invested in shares of this Fund on the same basis.

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

The Custodian. JPMorgan Chase Bank is the custodian of the Fund's assets. The
custodian's responsibilities include safeguarding and controlling the Fund's
portfolio securities and handling the delivery of such securities to and from
the Fund. It is the practice of the Fund to deal with the custodian in a
manner uninfluenced by any banking relationship the custodian may have with
the Manager and its affiliates. The Fund's cash balances with the custodian
in excess of $100,000 are not protected by federal deposit insurance. Those
uninsured balances at times may be substantial.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. KPMG LLP serves as the
independent registered public accounting firm for the Fund.  KPMG LLP audits
the Fund's financial statements and performs other related audit services.
KPMG LLP also acts as the independent registered public accounting firm for
the Manager and certain other funds advised by the Manager and its

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Oppenheimer Baring Japan Fund (the Fund), is an open-end management investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The
Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). The Manager
has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Baring Asset Management, Inc.

      The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares.
Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset
value plus a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are
sold without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge (CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement
plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those
accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without
either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the institutional investor
may impose charges on those accounts. All classes of shares have identical
rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive
voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and
net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses,
such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder
communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N have
separate distribution and/or service plans. No such plan has been adopted for
Class Y shares. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six
years after the date of purchase. The Fund assesses a 2% fee on the proceeds of
Fund shares that are redeemed (either by selling or exchanging to another
Oppenheimer fund) within 30 days of their purchase. The fee, which is retained
by the Fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES VALUATION. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares
as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the  "Exchange"),  normally 4:00
P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for business. Securities may
be valued  primarily  using  dealer-supplied  valuations or a portfolio  pricing
service  authorized  by the Board of  Trustees.  Securities  listed or traded on
National  Stock  Exchanges or other  domestic  exchanges are valued based on the
last sale price of the security  traded on that exchange  prior to the time when
the Fund's assets are valued. Securities traded on NASDAQ(R) are valued based on
the closing  price  provided by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund's  assets
are valued.  In the absence of a sale,  the  security is valued at the last sale
price on the prior  trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing "bid"
and "asked" prices,  and if not, at the closing bid price.  Securities traded on
foreign  exchanges  are  valued  based on the last sale  price on the  principal
exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing
service,  prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of
a sale,  the security is valued at the official  closing  price on the principal
exchange.  Corporate,   government  and  municipal  debt  instruments  having  a
remaining  maturity in excess of sixty days and all  mortgage-backed  securities
will be  valued  at the mean  between  the "bid"  and  "asked"  prices.  Futures
contracts  traded on a  commodities  or futures  exchange  will be valued at the
final settlement  price or official  closing price on the principal  exchange as
reported by such  principal  exchange at its trading  session ending at, or most
recently  prior to, the time when the  Fund's  assets are  valued.  Options  are
valued daily based upon the last sale price on the  principal  exchange on which
the option is traded.  Securities  (including  restricted  securities) for which
market  quotations  are not  readily  available  are valued at their fair value.
Foreign and domestic  securities  whose values have been materially  affected by
what the Manager  identifies as a significant  event occurring before the Fund's
assets are valued but after the close of their respective exchanges will be fair
valued.  Fair value is  determined  in good  faith  using  consistently  applied
procedures  under the  supervision  of the  Board of  Trustees.  Investments  in
open-end registered investment companies (including affiliated funds) are valued
at that fund's net asset value.  Short-term  "money market type" debt securities
with  remaining  maturities  of sixty days or less are valued at amortized  cost
(which approximates market value).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Fund's accounting records are maintained in
U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and
amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign
investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the New
York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each
day the Exchange is open for business. Foreign exchange rates may be valued
primarily using dealer supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees.

      Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of
portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and
settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the
amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the
Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or
paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the
values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal
period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

      The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a
daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.




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

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

                                                                  NET UNREALIZED

1. During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007, the Fund did not utilize any
capital loss carryforward.

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for
financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and
distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net
realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal
income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the
fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in
which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund. Accordingly, the
following amounts have been reclassified for May 31, 2007. Net assets of the
Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

                                   INCREASE TO       REDUCTION TO

              $3,549                   $31,516            $27,967

2. $768 was distributed in connection with Fund share redemptions.

No distributions were paid during the period ended May 31, 2007.

The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of
unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes as of May 31, 2007 are noted below. The primary
difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and
other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses
or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation
deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer
receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to
receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the
Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar
amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds
selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for
deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment,
resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such
assets are included as a component of "Other" within the asset section of the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan
will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the
Fund's assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be
deferred until distributed in accordance to the compensation deferral plan.

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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CUSTODIAN FEES. "Custodian fees and expenses" in the Statement of Operations may
include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its
custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the
effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows
resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays
interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not
offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the
Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The "Reduction to custodian expenses" line item,
if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund
during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid
with these earnings.





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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INDEMNIFICATIONS. The Fund's organizational documents provide current and former
trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising
in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal
course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general
indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the
Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

annual rate of average net assets as shown in the following table:

              FEE SCHEDULE
              ---------------------------------
              Up to $250 million          1.00%

              Over $1.0 billion           0.85

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUB-ADVISOR FEES. The Manager retains Baring Asset Management, Inc. (the
Sub-Advisor) to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The
Manager pays the Sub-Advisor an annual fee equal to 40% of the management fee
received by the Manager from the Fund. For the period ended May 31, 2007, the
Manager paid $14,040 to the Sub-Advisor for its services to the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays
OFS a per account fee. For the period ended May 31, 2007, the Fund paid $399 to
OFS for services to the Fund.

      Additionally, Class Y shares are subject to minimum fees of $10,000 per
annum for assets of $10 million or more. The Class Y shares are subject to the
minimum fees in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the
applicable minimum fees. OFS may voluntarily waive the minimum fees.





--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OFFERING AND ORGANIZATIONAL COSTS. The Manager paid all offering and
organizational costs associated with the registration and seeding of the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN (12b-1) FEES. Under its General Distributor's
Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
the Fund's classes of shares.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
periodically 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 periodically for
providing personal services and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with
respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent
periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plan are detailed in the Statement
of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the
distribution of those 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 each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or
Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the
Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the
Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of
the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior
to the effective date of such termination. The Distributor determines its
uncompensated expenses under the plan at calendar quarter ends. The
Distributor's aggregate uncompensated expenses under the plan at March 31, 2007
for Class B and Class C shares were $59 and $626, respectively. Fees incurred by
the Fund under the plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SALES CHARGES. Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges
(CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the
proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds
prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the
Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on
the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period
indicated.

Class C shares, respectively. This undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at
any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS

A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into foreign
currency contracts to settle specific purchases or sales of securities
denominated in a foreign currency and for protection from adverse exchange rate
fluctuation. Risks to the Fund include the potential inability of the
counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.

      The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using prevailing foreign currency exchange rates.
Unrealized appreciation and depreciation on foreign currency contracts are
reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable
and in the Statement of Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation.

      The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the
foreign transaction. Contracts closed or settled with the same broker are
recorded as net realized gains or losses. Such realized gains and losses are
reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of
Operations.

      As of May 31, 2007, the Fund had no outstanding foreign currency
contracts.





--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES.
FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an
enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109,
ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions
taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it
is "more-likely-than-not" that tax positions taken in the Fund's tax return will
be ultimately sustained. A tax liability and expense must be recorded in respect
of any tax position that, in Management's judgment, will not be fully realized.
FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. As of
May 31, 2007, the Manager has evaluated the implications of FIN 48 and does not
currently anticipate a material impact to the Fund's financial statements. The
Manager will continue to monitor the Fund's tax positions prospectively for
potential future impacts.

      In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS. This standard establishes a
single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS
No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by
existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. As of May 31, 2007, the Manager does not believe the
adoption of SFAS No. 157 will materially impact the financial statement amounts;
however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop
the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net
assets for the period.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             RATINGS DEFINITIONS

Below are summaries of the rating definitions used by the
nationally-recognized rating agencies listed below. Those ratings represent
the opinion of the agency as to the credit quality of issues that they rate.
The summaries below are based upon publicly available information provided by
the rating organizations.

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's")


LONG-TERM RATINGS: BONDS AND PREFERRED STOCK ISSUER RATINGS

Aaa: Bonds and preferred stock rated "Aaa" are judged to be the best quality.
They carry the smallest degree of investment risk.  Interest payments are
protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is
secure.  While the various protective elements are likely to change, the
changes that can be expected are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally
strong position of such issues.

Aa: Bonds and preferred stock rated "Aa" are judged to be of high quality by
all standards. Together with the "Aaa" group, they comprise what are
generally known as high-grade bonds.  They are rated lower than the best
bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as with "Aaa"
securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude
or there may be other elements present which make the long-term risk appear
somewhat larger than that of "Aaa" securities.

A: Bonds and preferred stock rated "A" possess many favorable investment
attributes and are to be considered as upper-medium grade obligations.
Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate but
elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment some
time in the future.

Baa: Bonds and preferred stock rated "Baa" are considered medium-grade
obligations; that is, they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured.
Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but
certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically
unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and have speculative characteristics as well.

Ba: Bonds and preferred stock rated "Ba" are judged to have speculative
elements. Their future cannot be considered well-assured.  Often the
protection of interest and principal payments may be very moderate and
thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future.
Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class.

B: Bonds and preferred stock rated "B" generally lack characteristics of the
desirable investment. Assurance of interest and principal payments or of
maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long period of time may
be small.

Caa: Bonds and preferred stock rated "Caa" are of poor standing. Such issues
may be in default or there may be present elements of danger with respect to
principal or interest.
Ca: Bonds and preferred stock rated "Ca" represent obligations which are
speculative in a high degree. Such issues are often in default or have other
marked shortcomings.

C:  Bonds and preferred stock rated "C" are the lowest class of rated bonds
and can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any
real investment standing.

Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 in each generic rating
classification from "Aa" through "Caa." The modifier "1" indicates that the
obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the
modifier "2" indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier "3" indicates a
ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category. Advanced refunded
issues that are secured by certain assets are identified with a # symbol.

PRIME RATING SYSTEM (SHORT-TERM RATINGS - TAXABLE DEBT)
These ratings are opinions of the ability of issuers to honor senior
financial obligations and contracts. Such obligations generally have an
original maturity not exceeding one year, unless explicitly noted.


Prime-1: Issuer has a superior ability for repayment of senior short-term
debt obligations.

Prime-2: Issuer has a strong ability for repayment of senior short-term debt
obligations. Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while sound, may be more
subject to variation. Capitalization characteristics, while appropriate, may
be more affected by external conditions. Ample alternate liquidity is
maintained.

Prime-3: Issuer has an acceptable ability for repayment of senior short-term
obligations. The effect of industry characteristics and market compositions
may be more pronounced. Variability in earnings and profitability may result
in changes in the level of debt protection measurements and may require
relatively high financial leverage. Adequate alternate liquidity is
maintained.

Not Prime: Issuer does not fall within any Prime rating category.

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("Standard & Poor's"), a division of The
McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.


LONG-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS

Issue credit ratings are based in varying degrees, on the following
considerations:
o     Likelihood of payment-capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet
      its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the terms
      of the obligation;
o     Nature of and provisions of the obligation; and
o     Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the
      event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the
      laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights.
   The issue ratings definitions are expressed in terms of default risk. As
such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are
typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority
in bankruptcy, as noted above.


AAA: An obligation rated "AAA" have the highest rating assigned by Standard &
Poor's. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the
obligation is extremely strong.

AA:  An obligation rated "AA" differ from the highest rated obligations only
in small degree. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation is very strong.

A: An obligation rated "A" are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse
effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations
in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor's capacity to meet its
financial commitment on the obligation is still strong.

BBB: An obligation rated "BBB" exhibit adequate protection parameters.
However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial
commitment on the obligation.


BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

An obligation rated `BB', `B', `CCC', `CC', and `C' are regarded as having
significant speculative characteristics. `BB' indicates the least degree of
speculation and `C' the highest. While such obligations will likely have some
quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large
uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions.

BB: An obligation rated "BB" are less vulnerable to nonpayment than other
speculative issues. However, they face major ongoing uncertainties or
exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions which could
lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation.

B: An obligation rated "B" are more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations
rated "BB", but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial
commitment on the obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic
conditions will likely impair the obligor's capacity or willingness to meet
its financial commitment on the obligation.

CCC: An obligation rated "CCC" are currently vulnerable to nonpayment, and
are dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for
the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. In the event
of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not
likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the
obligation.

CC: An obligation rated "CC" are currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment.


C: Subordinated debt or preferred stock obligations rated "C" are currently
highly vulnerable to nonpayment. The "C" rating may be used to cover a
situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed or similar action taken,
but payments on this obligation are being continued. A "C" also will be
assigned to a preferred stock issue in arrears on dividends or sinking fund
payments, but that is currently paying.


D: An obligation rated "D" are in payment default. The "D" rating category is
used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due even if the
applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor's believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The "D" rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a
similar action if payments on an obligation are jeopardized.


The ratings from "AA" to "CCC" may be modified by the addition of a plus (+)
or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.


c: The `c' subscript is used to provide additional information to investors
that the bank may terminate its obligation to purchase tendered bonds if the
long-term credit rating of the issuer is below an investment-grade level
and/or the issuer's bonds are deemed taxable.

p: The letter `p' indicates that the rating is provisional. A provisional
rating assumes the successful completion of the project financed by the debt
being rated and indicates that payment of debt service requirements is
largely or entirely dependent upon the successful, timely completion of the
project. This rating, however, while addressing credit quality subsequent to
completion of the project, makes no comment on the likelihood of or the risk
of default upon failure of such completion. The investor should exercise his
own judgment with respect to such likelihood and risk.

Continuance of the ratings is contingent upon Standard & Poor's receipt of an
executed copy of the escrow agreement or closing documentation confirming
investments and cash flows.

r: The `r' highlights derivative, hybrid, and certain other obligations that
Standard & Poor's believes may experience high volatility or high variability
in expected returns as a result of noncredit risks. Examples of such
obligations are securities with principal or interest return indexed to
equities, commodities, or currencies; certain swaps and options; and
interest-only and principal-only mortgage securities. The absence of an `r'
symbol should not be taken as an indication that an obligation will exhibit
no volatility or variability in total return.

N.R. Not rated.

Debt obligations of issuers outside the United States and its territories are
rated on the same basis as domestic corporate and municipal issues. The
ratings measure the creditworthiness of the obligor but do not take into
account currency exchange and related uncertainties.

Bond Investment Quality Standards

Under present commercial bank regulations issued by the Comptroller of the
Currency, bonds rated in the top four categories (`AAA', `AA', `A', `BBB',
commonly known as investment-grade ratings) generally are regarded as
eligible for bank investment. Also, the laws of various states governing
legal investments impose certain rating or other standards for obligations
eligible for investment by savings banks, trust companies, insurance
companies, and fiduciaries in general


SHORT-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS

Short-term ratings are generally assigned to those obligations considered
short-term in the relevant market. In the U.S., for example, that means
obligations with an original maturity of no more than 365 days-including
commercial paper.

A-1: A short-term obligation rated "A-1" is rated in the highest category by
Standard & Poor's. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation is strong. Within this category, certain obligations are
designated with a plus sign (+). This indicates that the obligor's capacity
to meet its financial commitment on these obligations is extremely strong.

A-2: A short-term obligation rated "A-2" is somewhat more susceptible to the
adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than
obligations in higher rating categories. However, the obligor's capacity to
meet its financial commitment on the obligation is satisfactory.
A-3: A short-term obligation rated "A-3" exhibits adequate protection
parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances
are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its
financial commitment on the obligation.

B: A short-term obligation rated "B" is regarded as having significant
speculative characteristics. The obligor currently has the capacity to meet
its financial commitment on the obligation; however, it faces major ongoing
uncertainties which could lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet
its financial commitment on the obligation.

C: A short-term obligation rated "C" is currently vulnerable to nonpayment
and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions
for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

D: A short-term obligation rated "D" is in payment default. The "D" rating
category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due
even if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor's
believes that such payments will be made during such grace period. The "D"
rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the
taking of a similar action if payments on an obligation are jeopardized.

NOTES:
A Standard & Poor's note rating reflects the liquidity factors and market
access risks unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely
receive a note rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely
receive a long-term debt rating. The following criteria will be used in
making that assessment:
o     Amortization schedule-the larger the final maturity relative to other
      maturities, the more likely it will
      be treated as a note; and
o     Source of payment-the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
      refinancing, the more likely
      it will be treated as a note.

SP-1: Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue with a very
strong capacity to pay debt service is given a (+) designation.

SP-2: Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some
vulnerability to adverse financial and economic changes over the term of the
notes.

SP-3: Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest.


Fitch, Inc.

International credit ratings assess the capacity to meet foreign currency or
local currency commitments. Both "foreign currency" and "local currency"
ratings are internationally comparable assessments. The local currency rating
measures the probability of payment within the relevant sovereign state's
currency and jurisdiction and therefore, unlike the foreign currency rating,
does not take account of the possibility of foreign exchange controls
limiting transfer into foreign currency.


INTERNATIONAL LONG-TERM CREDIT RATINGS
The following ratings scale applies to foreign currency and local currency
ratings.

Investment Grade:

AAA: Highest Credit Quality. "AAA" ratings denote the lowest expectation of
credit risk. They are assigned only in the case of exceptionally strong
capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. This capacity is highly
unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events.
AA: Very High Credit Quality. "AA" ratings denote a very low expectation of
credit risk. They indicate a very strong capacity for timely payment of
financial commitments. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to
foreseeable events.

A: High Credit Quality. "A" ratings denote a low expectation of credit risk.
The capacity for timely payment of financial commitments is considered
strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to changes in
circumstances or in economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

BBB: Good Credit Quality. "BBB" ratings indicate that there is currently a
low expectation of credit risk. The capacity for timely payment of financial
commitments is considered adequate, but adverse changes in circumstances and
in economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. This is the
lowest investment-grade category.

Speculative Grade:

BB: Speculative. "BB" ratings indicate that there is a possibility of credit
risk developing, particularly as the result of adverse economic change over
time. However, business or financial alternatives may be available to allow
financial commitments to be met. Securities rated in this category are not
investment grade.


B: Highly Speculative. "B" ratings indicate that significant credit risk is
present, but a limited margin of safety remains. Financial commitments are
currently being met. However, capacity for continued payment is contingent
upon a sustained, favorable business and economic environment.


CCC, CC C: High Default Risk.  Default is a real possibility. Capacity for
meeting financial commitments is solely reliant upon sustained, favorable
business or economic developments. A "CC" rating indicates that default of
some kind appears probable. "C" ratings signal imminent default.


DDD, DD, and D: Default. The ratings of obligations in this category are
based on their prospects for achieving partial or full recovery in a
reorganization or liquidation of the obligor. While expected recovery values
are highly speculative and cannot be estimated with any precision, the
following serve as general guidelines. "DDD" obligations have the highest
potential for recovery, around 90%-100% of outstanding amounts and accrued
interest. "DD" indicates potential recoveries in the range of 50%-90%, and
"D" the lowest recovery potential, i.e., below 50%.

Entities rated in this category have defaulted on some or all of their
obligations. Entities rated "DDD" have the highest prospect for resumption of
performance or continued operation with or without a formal reorganization
process. Entities rated "DD" and "D" are generally undergoing a formal
reorganization or liquidation process; those rated "DD" are likely to satisfy
a higher portion of their outstanding obligations, while entities rated "D"
have a poor prospect for repaying all obligations.


Plus (+) and minus (-) signs may be appended to a rating symbol to denote
relative status within the major rating categories.  Plus and minus signs are
not added to the "AAA" category or to categories below "CCC," nor to
short-term ratings other than "F1" (see below).


INTERNATIONAL SHORT-TERM CREDIT RATINGS
The following ratings scale applies to foreign currency and local currency
ratings. A short-term rating has a time horizon of less than 12 months for
most obligations, or up to three years for U.S. public finance securities,
and thus places greater emphasis on the liquidity necessary to meet financial
commitments in a timely manner.

F1: Highest credit quality. Strongest capacity for timely payment of
financial commitments. May have an added "+" to denote any exceptionally
strong credit feature.

F2: Good credit quality. A satisfactory capacity for timely payment of
financial commitments, but the margin of safety is not as great as in the
case of higher ratings.

F3: Fair credit quality. Capacity for timely payment of financial commitments
is adequate. However, near-term adverse changes could result in a reduction
to non-investment grade.

B: Speculative. Minimal capacity for timely payment of financial commitments,
plus vulnerability to near-term adverse changes in financial and economic
conditions.

C: High default risk. Default is a real possibility. Capacity for meeting
financial commitments is solely reliant upon a sustained, favorable business
and economic environment.

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.





                                  Appendix B

        OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class
A shares(2) 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.(3)  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 the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and SAI of the applicable Oppenheimer funds, the term "Retirement Plan"
refers to the following types of plans:
          1) plans created or qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of
             the Internal Revenue Code,
         2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
         3) employee benefit plans(4)
         4) Group Retirement Plans(5)
         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."(6) This waiver provision applies to:
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares, prior to March 1, 2007, 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 $5 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).

         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

         account.
III.  Waivers of Class B, Class C and Class N Sales Charges of Oppenheimer
      Funds
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Class B, Class C and Class N contingent deferred sales charges will not
be applied to shares purchased in certain types of transactions or redeemed
in certain circumstances described below.

A. Waivers for Redemptions in Certain Cases.

The Class B, Class C and Class N contingent deferred sales charges will be
waived for redemptions of shares in the following cases:
|_|   Shares redeemed involuntarily, as described in "Shareholder Account
         Rules and Policies," in the applicable Prospectus.
|_|   Redemptions from accounts other than Retirement Plans following the
         death or disability of the last surviving shareholder. The death or
         disability must have occurred after the account was established, and
         for disability you must provide evidence of a determination of
         disability by the Social Security Administration.
|_|   The contingent deferred sales charges are generally not waived
         following the death or disability of a grantor or trustee for a
         trust account. The contingent deferred sales charges will only be
         waived in the limited case of the death of the trustee of a grantor
         trust or revocable living trust for which the trustee is also the
         sole beneficiary. The death or disability must have occurred after
         the account was established, and for disability you must provide
         evidence of a determination of disability (as defined in the
         Internal Revenue Code).
|_|   Distributions from accounts for which the broker-dealer of record has
         entered into a special agreement with the Distributor allowing this
         waiver.
|_|   At the sole discretion of the Distributor, the contingent deferred
         sales charge may be waived for redemptions of shares requested by
         the shareholder of record within 60 days following the termination
         by the Distributor of the selling agreement between the Distributor

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).

            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,

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

            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

            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

charge by any holder of a variable annuity contract issued in New York State

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.

         established by them or the prior investment adviser of the Fund for

         insurance companies that had an agreement with the Fund's prior
         investment adviser 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

         Fund's shares to sell shares to defined contribution employee
         retirement plans for which the dealer, broker, or investment adviser
         provides administrative services.
(1) In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, the term
"Independent Trustees" in this Statement of Additional Information refers to
those Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Fund and who do not
have any direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the
distribution plan or any agreement under the plan.

(2) Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.
(3) 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.
(4) 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.
(5) 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

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.
(6) 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.
(7) This provision does not apply to IRAs.
(8) This provision only applies to qualified retirement plans and 403(b)(7)
custodial plans after your separation from service in or after the year you
reached age 55.
(9) The distribution must be requested prior to Plan termination or the
elimination of the Oppenheimer funds as an investment option under the Plan.
(10) This provision does not apply to IRAs.
(11) This provision does not apply to loans from 403(b)(7) custodial plans
and loans from the OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.
(12) This provision does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the
participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.

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 Amended
and Restated 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
investment companies, including without limitation those described in Parts A
and B hereof and listed in Item 26(b) below.

(b)   There is set forth below information as to any other business,
profession, vocation or employment of a substantial nature in which each
officer and director of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. is, or at any time during the
past two fiscal years has been, engaged for his/her own account or in the
