ABOUT THE FUNDS

The Funds' Investment Objectives and Principal Investment Strategies

WHAT IS EACH FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE? Each Fund seeks total return until
the target retirement date included in its name and then seeks income and
secondarily capital growth.

WHAT DOES EACH FUND MAINLY INVEST IN? Each Fund is a special type of mutual
fund known as a "fund of funds" because it invests in other mutual funds.
Under normal market conditions, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the "Manager"), the
investment manager of each Fund, will invest the Fund's assets in a
diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds. Those funds are referred
to as the "Underlying Funds." "Normal market conditions" exist when
securities markets and economic conditions are not unstable or adverse, in
the judgment of the Manager. Each Fund will seek to achieve its objective by
investing in a portfolio of Underlying Funds that represent various asset
classes and sectors that will change over time as the date in a given Fund's
name gets closer. Each of the Funds will have, and is expected to maintain,
some equity exposure. Equity securities have generally proven to offer higher
rates of return, over the long term, than fixed-income securities and may
play a role both in preparing for and during retirement.

HOW DOES THE MANAGER DECIDE WHAT SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL? Each Fund is
managed based on an approximate retirement year (the "transition" date)
included in its name. The following tables detail the way each Fund expects
to initially allocate investments among the Underlying Funds, which represent
various asset classes. At times, the Funds may invest in other Oppenheimer
equity and fixed-income funds and in Oppenheimer money market funds.

The Funds will present their allocations among the Underlying Funds in their
shareholder reports and as described in the section "About the Funds'
Investments-Portfolio Holdings" below. The Manager may change the Funds'
allocations at any time without advance notice to shareholders.

Shares of the Underlying Funds may be sold for a variety of reasons, such as
to effect a change in asset allocation, secure a gain, limit a loss, or
redeploy assets into more promising opportunities.

WHO ARE THE FUNDS DESIGNED FOR? The Funds are designed primarily for
investors seeking a professionally managed investment program to simplify the
accumulation of assets prior to and during retirement. In general, the Funds'
investment programs assume a retirement age of 65 and expect that the
investor will choose a Fund whose "transition" date is closest to the date
the investor turns 65. The "transition" date of the Fund you select should
not necessarily represent the specific year you intend to retire or start
drawing retirement assets; rather it should be an approximate guide.

To accommodate a wider range of investor preferences and retirement time
horizons than is possible with a single fund, the Oppenheimer LifeCycle Funds
offer Funds with different combinations of asset allocations to provide the
growth potential of equities, the income potential of bonds, and the relative
stability of short-term bond funds. Choosing a Fund with an earlier
transition date represents a more conservative choice; choosing a Fund with a
later transition date represents a more aggressive choice.

Investors should realize that the Funds are not a complete solution to their
retirement needs. Investors must weigh many factors when considering
retirement, including when to retire, what their retirement needs will be,
and what other sources of income they may have.

HOW WILL THE FUNDS CHANGE WITH YOUR CHANGING NEEDS? The Funds' allocations to
various asset classes, through investments in the Underlying Funds, will
become progressively more conservative over time. This approach is designed
to help investors accumulate the assets needed to generate income during
their retirement years. An example of this progression is demonstrated in the
following chart, which reflects an investor's need to reduce investment risks
as his or her retirement year approaches and the need for lower volatility in
a portfolio that may be an investor's primary source of income after
retirement.


[GRAPHIC OMITTED][GRAPHIC OMITTED]
The Manager will monitor the Funds' asset allocations daily and will
regularly rebalance each Fund's portfolio so that it remains consistent with
its target allocations to the indicated asset classes. Each Fund's target
allocations to equity and fixed-income Underlying Funds, as shown in the
chart above, are not expected to vary from the allocations shown by more than
plus or minus five percentage points. However, the Manager may favor
fixed-income securities if the economy is expected to slow sufficiently to
hurt corporate profit growth. The opposite may be true when strong economic
growth is expected. The Manager will examine relative values and prospects
among growth- and value-oriented securities, domestic and international
securities, and small-, mid- and large-cap issuers, as well as the capacity
of the Underlying Funds to absorb and invest additional cash flow. Each
Fund's allocations will be rebalanced at least annually.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER THE TRANSITION DATE? After the transition date, the
Funds will continue on a "glide path" to a more conservative allocation,
designed to place greater emphasis on income and reduce investors' overall
risks. Approximately 10 years after a Fund's stated "transition" year, the
Fund's exposure to equity Underlying Funds will be at its most conservative
and will remain fixed at approximately 20% of assets. At that point,
approximately 75% of the Funds' portfolios will be invested in fixed-income
Underlying Funds and 5% may be invested in other types of Underlying Funds.

CAN THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES CHANGE?  Each Fund's Board
of Trustees can change non-fundamental 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 a Fund's outstanding voting shares (as defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended ("Investment Company Act"). The Funds'
investment objectives and principal investment strategies are not fundamental
policies, however, shareholders will receive at least 60 days' advance notice
of changes in a Fund's investment objective or principal strategies. Unless
otherwise stated in this prospectus or the Statement of Additional
Information, investment policies of the Funds are not fundamental.

Certain investment objectives or strategies of the Underlying Funds are
fundamental policies and others are non-fundamental policies, as indicated in
each Underlying Fund's prospectus or Statement of Additional Information.
Each Underlying Fund's Board of Directors or Trustees can change
non-fundamental policies without shareholder approval, including without the
approval of the Funds.

Main Risks of Investing in the Funds

All investments have risks to some degree. The share prices of each Fund's
shares generally change daily based on the values of the Underlying Funds'
investments, which may be subject to a number of factors described below. By
investing in different types of Underlying Funds, the Funds have partial
exposure to the risks of different areas of the market. The more a Fund
allocates to equity Underlying Funds, the greater the expected risk. The
Funds are also subject to the risk that poor security selection by the
Underlying Funds may cause a Fund to underperform other funds having similar
objectives.

RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE UNDERLYING FUNDS. Each of the Underlying Funds in
which the Funds invest has its own investment risks, and those risks can
affect the value of the Underlying Funds' shares and therefore the value of
the Funds' shares. To the extent that the Funds invest more of their assets
in one Underlying Fund than in another, the Funds will have greater exposure
to the risks of that Underlying Fund. The investment objective and principal
investments of each of the Underlying Funds are described in the section
"More Information About the Underlying Funds." There is no guarantee that the
Underlying Funds will achieve their investment objectives. The risks of the
Underlying Fund's investments are described in the section "About the Funds'
Investments-The Funds' Principal Investment Policies and Risks." The
principal risks of an investment in the LifeCycle Funds are different from
the principal risks of an investment in any one of the individual Underlying
Funds and are described below.

The Underlying Funds will pursue their investment objectives and policies
without the approval of the Funds. If an Underlying Fund were to change its
investment objective or policies, the applicable Fund may be required to sell
its shares of the Underlying Fund at a disadvantageous time. The prospectuses
and Statements of Additional Information of the Underlying Funds are
available without charge upon request by contacting OppenheimerFunds Services
toll free at 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677), or they can be downloaded on the
OppenheimerFunds, Inc. website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

ALLOCATION RISK. Each Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective
depends upon the Manager's skill in selecting the best mix of Underlying
Funds. There is the risk that the Manager's evaluations and assumptions
regarding the Underlying Funds may be incorrect in view of actual market
conditions.

AFFILIATED PORTFOLIO RISK. In managing the Funds, the Manager will have
authority to select and substitute Underlying Funds. The Manager may be
subject to potential conflicts of interest in selecting Underlying Funds
because the fees paid to it by some Underlying Funds are higher than the fees
paid by other Underlying Funds. However the Manager's fund of funds committee
monitors the investment process, identifies, addresses and resolves any
potential issues and reports to the Boards of the Funds and of each
Underlying Fund at least quarterly.

RISKS OF INVESTING IN EQUITY SECURITIES. Stocks and other equity securities
held by the Underlying Funds fluctuate in price in response to changes in
equity markets in general, and their short-term volatility at times may be
great. The prices of individual equity securities do not all move in the same
direction uniformly or at the same time; for example, "growth" stocks may
perform well under circumstances in which "value" stocks in general have
fallen. Different stock markets may behave differently from each other. Other
factors may affect the price of a particular company's securities. Those
factors include poor earnings reports, loss of customers, litigation, or
changes in regulations affecting the company or its industry. To the extent
that an Underlying Fund emphasizes investments in securities of a particular
type, for example foreign stocks, stocks of small or mid sized companies,
growth or value stocks, or stocks of companies in a particular industry, its
share value may fluctuate in response to events affecting the market for
those type of securities.

RISKS OF INVESTING IN FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES. Fixed-income (debt) securities
held by the Underlying Funds may be subject to credit risk, interest rate
risk, and prepayment 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 an issuer fails to pay interest or to repay principal, the
Underlying Fund's income or share value might be reduced. The value of debt
securities are also 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 or from the amount the Underlying Fund paid
for them. When interest rates fall, the issuers of mortgage-related debt
securities may prepay principal to the Underlying Fund more quickly than
expected and the Underlying Fund may be required to reinvest the proceeds at
a lower interest rate.

HOW RISKY ARE THE FUNDS OVERALL? The risks described above collectively form
the overall risk profile of the Funds. However, the allocation strategies
that the Manager employs for the Funds are designed to allow risks to be
offset by one another. For example the downward movement in one security or
asset class may be offset by the upward movement in another. So while the
Underlying Funds have certain risk characteristics, the Manager's strategy of
allocating Fund assets to different Underlying Funds may allow those risks to
be offset. As discussed above, each Fund's risk profile will become more
conservative over time. The Transition 2025 Fund represents the most
conservative investment strategy, while the Transition 2050 Fund is the most
aggressive. The Funds' risks mean that you can lose money by investing in a
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 Funds will achieve their
investment objectives.

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

The Funds' Past Performance

Because the Funds have not commenced operations, there is no prior
performance information. Please remember that the Funds are intended to be
long-term investments, that performance results are historical, and that past
performance (particularly over a short time period) is not predictive of
future results.

Fees and Expenses of the Funds

The following tables are provided to help you understand the fees and
expenses you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Funds. The Funds pay a
variety of expenses directly for distribution of their shares and other
services. Those expenses are subtracted from each Fund's assets to calculate
such Fund's net asset value per share. All shareholders therefore pay those
expenses indirectly. In addition, each Fund will indirectly bear its pro-rata
share of the expenses of the Underlying Funds in which it invests.
Shareholders pay other expenses directly, such as sales charges, which are
the same for each of the Funds. "Other Expenses," "Acquired Fund Fees and
Expenses," and "Total Annual Operating Expenses" are each Fund's anticipated
expenses during its first fiscal year based on estimated average daily net
assets of $25 million.

EXAMPLES. The following examples are intended to help you compare the cost of
investing in the Funds with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The
examples, which are based on the estimated Total Annual Operating Expenses,
assume that you invest $10,000 in the indicated class of shares of the
applicable 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 share class's operating expenses remain the same. Your actual costs may
be higher or lower because expenses will vary over time. Based on these
expense assumptions your expenses would be as follows:

In the first group of examples, expenses include the Class A initial sales
charge for Class A and the applicable Class B, Class C or Class N contingent
deferred sales charges. In the second group of examples, Class A expenses
include the initial 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.
1. A contingent deferred sales charge may apply to redemptions of investments
   of $1 million or more ($500,000 for certain retirement plan accounts) of
   Class A shares. See "How to Buy Shares" for details.
2. Applies to redemptions in the 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 of any Oppenheimer fund.
5. "Other Expenses" include transfer agent fees, custodial expenses and
   accounting and legal expenses that the Funds pay and are based on
   estimated amounts for the Funds' first fiscal year. The transfer agent fee
   is a per account fee and will therefore vary on a percentage basis as the
   number of accounts change. The Funds estimate that this fee will not
   exceed 0.25% per class. The transfer agent has also voluntarily undertaken
   to limit the transfer agent fees paid to 0.35% of average net assets per
   fiscal year for all classes of each Fund. This undertaking may be amended
   or withdrawn at any time.
6. These estimates of the Underlying Funds' fees and expenses, which will be
   incurred indirectly by the Funds, are based on estimates of the total
   annual expense ratios, without giving effect to any waivers or
   reimbursements, of the Underlying Funds in which the applicable Fund
   expects to invest during its first fiscal year. Any material change to a
   Fund's asset allocation to the Underlying Funds could increase or decrease
   the amounts of the estimates and the actual amounts of those expenses may
   vary from these estimates.
7. The Manager has voluntarily undertaken to waive fees and/or reimburse the
   Funds for certain expenses so that each Fund's "Total Annual Fund and
   Underlying Fund Operating Expenses," as a percentage of average daily net
   assets, will not exceed  1.50% for Class A, 2.25 % for Class B and Class
   C, 1.75% for Class N and 1.25% for Class Y shares. The Manager may modify
   or terminate that undertaking at any time without notice to shareholders,
   but will not recover waived fees in subsequent fiscal periods. Those
   expense limitations do not include extraordinary expenses and other
   expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business.
   Notwithstanding the foregoing limits, the Manager is not required to waive
   or reimburse Fund expenses in excess of the indirect management fees
   earned from investments in the Underlying Funds.

About the Funds' Investments

THE FUNDS' PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISKS. The allocation of the
different types of investments will vary over time and the Funds may not
always invest in Underlying Funds that include all of the different types of
investments described in this prospectus. The Statement of Additional
Information contains more detailed information about the Funds' investment
policies and risks.

Investments in the Underlying Funds. Under normal circumstances, the Funds
invest in diversified portfolios made up of varying allocations of
investments in the Underlying Funds. The Underlying Funds in which the Funds
may invest include Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund, Oppenheimer Core
Bond Fund, Oppenheimer International Bond Fund, Oppenheimer International
Growth Fund, Oppenheimer International Value Fund, Oppenheimer Main Street
Fund, Oppenheimer MidCap Fund, Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return
Fund, Oppenheimer Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund, and Oppenheimer Value Fund.
These Underlying Funds were chosen based on the Manager's determination that
they could provide the diversification needed to implement the allocation
strategies of the Funds. The choice of Underlying Funds, the objectives and
policies of the Underlying Funds and the Funds' allocations to the Underlying
Funds may change from time to time without approval by the Funds'
shareholders.

STOCK AND OTHER EQUITY INVESTMENTS. Some of the Underlying Funds may invest
primarily in common stocks or other types of equity securities, including
preferred stocks, rights and warrants, and securities convertible into common
stock. The issuers may be small, medium or large capitalization companies, as
defined in the particular Underlying Fund's prospectus. Not all Underlying
Funds define small- and mid-cap issuers in the same way. Some of the
Underlying Funds may buy securities issued by foreign companies and some may
emphasize investments in "growth" securities or "value" securities.

o     Common Stock. Common stock represents an ownership interest in the
      issuer and fluctuates in price in response to conditions affecting the
      issuer or changes in equity markets in general. An Underlying Fund may
      invest in common stock to seek capital appreciation, dividend income or
      both. Common stock is generally subordinate to the other securities of
      an issuer.

o     Preferred Stock. Preferred stocks are a form of equity security that
      typically have a fixed dividend that may cause their prices to behave
      more like those of debt securities. Preferred stock dividends may be
      cumulative (they remain a liability of the company until they are paid)
      or non-cumulative. If prevailing interest rates rise, the fixed
      dividend on preferred stock may be less attractive, causing the price
      of preferred stocks to decline. The right to payment of dividends on
      preferred stock is generally subordinate to the rights of a
      corporation's debt securities.

o     Convertible Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds may also buy
      interest bearing securities that are convertible into common stock.
      While many convertible securities are debt securities, the Underlying
      Funds consider some of them to be "equity equivalents" because of their
      features allowing them to be converted into common stock. Convertible
      securities may be subject to the risks of the common stock of the
      issuer as well as to credit risk and interest rate risk.  The credit
      rating of an "equity equivalent" convertible security generally has
      less impact on the Underlying Fund's investment decisions than in the
      case of other debt securities.

      Some of the Underlying Funds may buy convertible securities rated below
      investment grade by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor's
      Rating Service or other nationally recognized rating organizations (or,
      if they are unrated, having a comparable rating assigned by the
      Manager). Below investment grade securities (commonly referred to as
      "junk bonds") are subject to a greater risk of default by the issuer
      than investment-grade securities.

Risks of Investing in Common Stock and other Equity Securities. The prices of
common stock and other equity securities fluctuate in response to changing
market conditions, and at times their short-term volatility may be great. An
Underlying Fund's emphasis on growth stocks or stocks issued by foreign
issuers or small- or mid-sized companies can also result in higher
volatility. 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. Other factors
can affect a particular company's stocks price, such as poor earnings
reports, loss of a major customer, litigation against the issuer, or changes
in government regulations affecting the issuer or its industry.

Growth Investing. In selecting equity securities for purchase or sale, some
of the Underlying Funds use a "growth" investment style. A growth investment
style seeks companies whose stock price is expected to increase at a greater
rate than the overall market. They may be newer companies or they may be more
established companies that are entering a growth cycle. Growth companies may
be developing new products or services or may be expanding into new markets
for their products, or they may be companies in businesses with above-average
growth potential. A growth phase may be marked by increases in earnings,
sales, cash flows or other factors, which suggest that the price of the
company's stock may increase in value over time.

The Underlying Funds' portfolio managers may consider the following in
seeking to implement a growth strategy:
o     companies that have strong revenue growth
o     companies with above-average earnings growth
o     companies that can sustain strong revenue and earnings growth
o     stocks with attractive valuations relative to their growth potential

Risks of Growth Investing. The stocks of growth companies may be more
volatile than stocks of other types of companies. If a company's earnings
growth fails to increase as expected, the stock price of a growth company may
decline sharply. Investments in newer or smaller growth 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 older or larger issuers. That means some of the
Underlying Funds could have greater difficulty selling a security of a
smaller or newer issuer at an acceptable price, especially in periods of
market volatility. Newer growth companies tend to retain a large part of
their earnings for research, development or investment in capital assets.
Therefore, they may pay lower dividends than other companies or may not pay
any dividends for some time. Also, it may take a substantial period of time
before such Underlying Fund realizes a gain on an investment in a smaller or
newer company, if it realizes any gain at all.

Value Investing. The portfolio managers of certain other Underlying Funds use
a value investing strategy. In value investing, the portfolio managers use
fundamental company analysis to seek stocks that have low prices in relation
to what the portfolio managers believe to be the stock's real worth based on
the company's prospects. The portfolio managers may consider a number of
factors in this assessment. Among other considerations, they may look for
stocks that they believe are not fully recognized by, or are temporarily out
of favor with, the market. These Underlying Funds seek to realize
appreciation in the value of their holdings when other investors recognize
the intrinsic value of those stocks.

Risks of Value Investing. For Underlying Funds that use a value investing
style, there is the risk that the Underlying Fund may not value a security
accurately. Additionally, if the market does not recognize a selected
security as undervalued, the price of the security might not appreciate in
the way an Underlying Fund anticipates.

Foreign Equity Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds may buy securities of
companies in any country, including companies in "emerging" or "developing"
market countries. The foreign securities some of the Underlying Funds may buy
include stocks and other equity securities of companies organized under the
laws of a foreign country or companies that have a substantial portion (more
than 50%) of their operations or assets abroad, or derive a substantial
portion of their revenue or profits from businesses, investments or sales
outside the United States. Foreign securities include securities traded
primarily on foreign securities exchanges or in foreign over-the-counter
markets. Some of the Underlying Funds invest in securities of foreign issuers
that are represented in the U.S. securities markets by American Depository
Receipts ("ADRs") or similar depository arrangements.

Risks of Foreign Securities. While foreign securities may offer special
investment opportunities, there are also special risks that can reduce an
Underlying Fund's share price and return. 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 the foreign currency. Currency rate
changes can also affect the distributions an Underlying Fund makes from
income it receives from foreign securities as foreign currency values change
against the U.S. dollar. Foreign investing can result in higher transaction
and operating costs for some of the Underlying Funds that invest in foreign
securities. Foreign issuers are not subject to the same accounting and
disclosure requirements that U.S. companies are subject to.

The value of foreign investments may be affected by exchange control
regulations, expropriation or nationalization of a company's assets, foreign
taxes, delays in the settlement of transactions, changes in governmental,
economic or monetary policy in the United States or abroad, or other
political or economic factors. These risks could cause the prices of foreign
stocks to fall and could therefore depress an Underlying Fund's share prices.
Fund shareholders may be unable to deduct or take a credit for foreign taxes
paid by the Underlying Funds on their foreign investments.

Additionally, if an Underlying Fund invests a significant amount of its
assets in foreign securities, it might 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 between 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 Underlying Fund's net asset value is calculated. If such time-zone
arbitrage were successful, it might dilute the interests of other
shareholders. However, the use of "fair value pricing" to adjust the closing
market prices of foreign securities under certain circumstances, to reflect
what the Manager and the Boards of Directors or Trustees of the Underlying
Funds believe to be their fair value, and the imposition of redemption fees
by certain Underlying Funds, may help deter those activities.

Foreign securities owned by an Underlying Fund may trade on weekends or other
days when the Funds and the Underlying Funds do not price their shares. As a
result, the Fund's net asset value may change on days when you will not be
able to purchase or redeem the Fund's shares.

Special Risks of Emerging and Developing Markets. Securities of issuers in
emerging and developing markets may offer special investment opportunities,
but present risks not found in more mature markets. Emerging market countries
may have less developed legal and accounting systems. The governments of
developing countries may be more unstable and present greater risks of
nationalization or restrictions on foreign ownership of stocks of local
companies and investments may be subject to greater risks of government
restrictions on withdrawing dividends paid or the sale proceeds of securities
from the country. Emerging market countries may have less developed
securities markets and exchanges and their economies may be more dependent on
relatively few industries that may be highly vulnerable to local and global
changes.

The securities of issuers in emerging markets may be less liquid, or more
difficult to sell at an acceptable price, than securities of issuers in more
developed markets. Settlements of trades may be subject to greater delays so
that an Underlying Fund might not receive the proceeds of a sale of a
security on a timely basis. Emerging market investments may be substantially
more volatile than investments in the United States or other developed
countries and may be considered speculative.

Special Risks of Investing in Small- and Mid-Sized Companies. Some of the
Underlying Funds may emphasize investments in small- and/or mid-cap
companies, as defined in the Underlying Fund's prospectus. These companies
can include both established and newer companies. While smaller, newer
companies might offer greater opportunities for capital appreciation than
larger, more established companies, they may involve substantially greater
risk of loss and price fluctuation. The Underlying Funds may use different
definitions of "small-cap" and "mid-cap" companies, as stated in each
Underlying Fund's prospectus. The Underlying Funds' prospectuses are
available without charge as indicated in the section "Risks of Investing in
the Underlying Funds," above.

Small- and mid-sized companies may have limited product lines or markets for
their products, more limited access to financial resources and less depth in
management skill than larger companies. Their stocks also may be less liquid
than those of larger issuers. That means that an Underlying Fund could have
greater difficulty selling those securities, especially in periods of market
volatility, which could increase the potential for loss. It also may take a
substantial period of time for an Underlying Fund to realize a gain on an
investment in the stocks of a small- or mid-sized company, if it realizes any
gain at all.

Because the securities of smaller companies may be traded infrequently, to
the extent that an Underlying Fund invests significantly in those securities,
investors may seek to trade shares of the Underlying Funds based on their
knowledge or understanding of the value of those securities (this is
sometimes referred to as "price arbitrage"). Certain of the Underlying Funds,
including the Oppenheimer Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund, impose a 2%
redemption fee under certain circumstances to attempt to deter such price
arbitrage. If such price arbitrage were otherwise successful, it might
interfere with the efficient management of an Underlying Fund's portfolio to
a greater degree than would be the case for a fund that invests in more
liquid securities, because the Underlying 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 an Underlying
Fund's shares held by other shareholders, including the Funds.


Risks of Technology Stocks. Certain Underlying Funds may invest in technology
stocks. The types of companies the portfolio managers of those Underlying
Funds consider to be technology companies can be expected to change over time
as developments in technology occur. To the extent an Underlying Fund is
invested in stocks of technology companies, the value of the Underlying
Fund's shares is particularly vulnerable to risks, including market and
economic events, which affect technology companies and/or companies having
investments in technology. The technology sector has historically exhibited
great price volatility, or fluctuations in stock valuations. The stock prices
of technology companies during the past few years have been highly volatile,
largely due to the rapid pace of product change and development within this
sector. In addition, technologies that are dependent on consumer demand may
be more sensitive to changes in consumer spending patterns. Technology
companies focusing on the information and telecommunications sectors may also
be subject to international, federal and state regulations and may be
adversely affected by changes in those regulations. The portfolio managers of
the Underlying Funds take these factors into account when evaluating the
long-term merits of a technology investment.


Investing in Special Situations. Periodically, some of the Underlying Funds
might use aggressive investment techniques to seek to benefit from what the
portfolio manager perceives to be a "special situation," such as a merger,
reorganization, restructuring or other unusual event that is expected to
affect a particular issuer. However, there is a risk that the anticipated
change or event might not occur, which could have a negative impact on the
price of the issuer's securities. In that case, an Underlying Fund's
investment might not produce the expected gains or might incur a loss.

Cyclical Opportunities. Some of the Underlying Funds may also seek to take
advantage of changes in the business cycle by investing in companies that are
sensitive to those changes. Some of the Underlying Funds might sometimes seek
to take tactical advantage of short-term market movements or in anticipation
of events that would affect particular issuers or industries. There is a risk
that if the event does not occur as expected, the value of the Underlying
Fund's investments could fall.

INVESTMENTS IN FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES. Certain of the Underlying Funds
emphasize investments in debt securities, such as government securities and
corporate bonds and debentures. The Underlying Funds might also buy
short-term debt securities for liquidity purposes pending the purchase of new
investments or to have cash to pay for redemptions of the Underlying Fund's
shares. To seek higher income, some Underlying Funds can invest without limit
in  debt securities, commonly known as "junk bonds," that are rated below
investment grade. That means that they are rated lower than "Baa" by Moody's
Investors Service or "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Rating Service or have
comparable ratings by other nationally-recognized rating organizations or are
unrated securities that the Manager considers to be of equivalent quality.
The Underlying Funds do not purchase debt securities that are in default, but
may continue to hold a debt security after a default event has occurred.

Interest Rate Risk. The values of debt securities are subject to change when
prevailing interest rates change. When interest rates fall, the values of
outstanding debt securities generally rise. When interest rates rise, the
values of outstanding debt securities generally fall, and those securities
may sell at a discount from their face amount. An Underlying Fund's share
prices may go up or down when interest rates change because of the effect of
those changes on the value of the Underlying Fund's investments in debt
securities.

These fluctuations will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than
for shorter-term debt securities. When the average maturity of the Underlying
Fund's portfolio is longer, its shares prices may fluctuate more when
interest rates change. An Underlying Fund may also buy zero-coupon or
"stripped" securities, which may be particularly sensitive to interest rate
changes. Interest rate changes may have different effects on the values of
mortgage-related securities because of prepayment and extension risks.

o     Prepayment Risk. Mortgage-related securities are subject to the risk of
      unanticipated prepayment. That is the risk that when interest rates
      fall, borrowers will prepay the mortgages that underlie these
      securities more quickly than expected, causing the issuer of the
      security to repay the principal to the Underlying Fund prior to the
      security's expected maturity. The Underlying Fund may need to reinvest
      the proceeds at a lower interest rate, reducing its income.
      Mortgage-related securities subject to prepayment risk generally offer
      less potential for gains when prevailing interest rates fall. If an
      Underlying Fund buys mortgage-related securities at a premium,
      accelerated prepayments on those securities could cause the Underlying
      Fund to lose a portion of its principal investment represented by the
      premium. Interest-only and principal-only mortgage-backed securities,
      which certain Underlying Funds may buy, are especially sensitive to
      interest rate changes, which can affect not only their prices but can
      also change the income flows and prepayment assumptions about those
      investments.

o     Extension Risk. If interest rates rise rapidly, repayments of mortgages
      may occur at a slower rate than expected and the expected maturity of
      mortgage-related securities could lengthen as a result.
      Mortgage-related securities generally have a greater potential for loss
      when prevailing interest rates rise. That could cause the value of an
      Underlying Fund's shares to fall.

o     Credit Risk. Debt securities are also subject to credit risk. Credit
      risk is the risk that the issuer of a security might not make interest
      and principal payments on the security as they become due. Securities
      directly issued by the U.S. Treasury and certain agencies that are
      backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government have little
      credit risk, and securities issued by other agencies of the U.S.
      government generally have low credit risks. Securities issued by
      private issuers generally have greater credit risks than government
      issued securities.

      If an issuer fails to pay interest, an Underlying Fund's income might
      be reduced, and if an issuer fails to repay principal, the values of
      that security and of the Underlying Fund's shares might fall.
      High-yield, lower-grade debt securities are especially subject to risks
      of default. A downgrade in an issuer's credit rating or other adverse
      news about an issuer can reduce the market value of that issuer's
      securities. Securities issued by U.S. government agencies or
      instrumentalities carry an implied credit support from the U.S.
      government. These government agencies and instrumentalities are
      currently subject to a degree of focus by the U.S. Treasury, the U.S.
      Congress and the regulatory agencies which oversee those government
      agencies and instrumentalities. It is possible that the implied credit
      support of the U.S. government could be modified or withdrawn. However,
      at this time the likelihood of that event cannot be predicted at this
      time. In the event that the credit support is modified or withdrawn,
      those securities may be subject to a credit downgrade and the value of
      those securities may decline.

o     Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. The Underlying Funds that may
      invest in below investment grade securities ("junk bonds") may have
      greater credit risks than funds that buy only investment-grade bonds.
      Lower-grade debt securities may be subject to greater price
      fluctuations and risks of loss of income and principal than
      investment-grade debt securities. Securities that are below investment
      grade are exposed to a greater risk that the issuer might not meet its
      debt obligations or might default. There may be less of a market for
      lower grade securities, making it harder to value them or sell them at
      an acceptable price and possibly exposing an Underlying Fund to "price
      arbitrage" attempts as described above. Additionally, these securities
      may be subject to a greater risk of default. These risks may reduce an
      Underlying Fund's share price and the income it earns.

Foreign Debt Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds may invest in a variety
of debt securities issued by foreign governments and companies, as well as
"supra-national" entities, such as the World Bank. They can include bonds,
debentures, and notes, including derivative investments called "structured"
notes, described below. The Underlying Funds' foreign debt investments may be
denominated in U.S. dollars or in foreign currencies and can include "Brady
Bonds." Those are U.S.-dollar denominated debt securities collateralized by
zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities. They are typically issued by emerging
market countries and are considered speculative securities with higher risks
of default.

U.S. Government Securities. Not all of the U.S. government securities that
certain Underlying Funds buy are backed by the full faith and credit of the
U.S. government as to the payment of interest and repayment of principal.
Some are backed by the right of the entity to borrow from the U.S. Treasury.
Others are backed only by the credit of the issuing governmental entity. All
of these different types of securities, described below, are generally
referred to as "U.S. government securities" in this prospectus.

o     U.S. Treasury Obligations. These include Treasury bills (which have
      maturities of one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (which have
      maturities of more than one year and up to ten years when issued), and
      Treasury bonds (which have maturities of more than ten years when
      issued). All Treasury securities are backed by the full faith and
      credit of the United States as to the timely payment of interest and
      repayment of principal. Certain Underlying Funds can buy U.S. Treasury
      securities that have been "stripped" of their coupons, zero-coupon U.S.
      Treasury securities as described below, and Treasury Inflation
      Protection Securities.

o     Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
      Instrumentalities. Certain Underlying Funds can invest in both direct
      obligations and mortgage-related securities that have different levels
      of credit support from the U.S. government. Some of these securities
      are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, such
      as Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae") pass-through
      mortgage certificates. Some are supported by the right of the issuer to
      borrow from the U.S. Treasury under certain circumstances, such as
      Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"), Federal Home Loan
      Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") and Federal Home Loan Bank
      obligations. Others are supported only by the credit of the entity that
      issued them.

o     Mortgage-Related U.S. Government Securities. Certain Underlying Funds
      invest a significant amount of their assets in mortgage-related U.S.
      government securities. These include interests in pools of residential
      or commercial mortgages, in the form of collateralized mortgage-backed
      obligations ("CMOs") and other "pass-through" mortgage securities. CMOs
      have collateral to secure payment of interest and principal. They may
      be issued in different series with different interest rates and
      maturities. The collateral of U.S. government CMOs is either in the
      form of mortgage pass-through certificates issued or guaranteed by a
      U.S. agency or instrumentality or mortgage loans insured by a U.S.
      government agency.

      The prices and yields of CMOs are determined, in part, by assumptions
      about the cash flows from the payments on the underlying mortgages.
      Changes in interest rates may cause the rate of expected prepayments of
      those mortgages to change. Prepayment risk and extension risk,
      described above, can make the prices of CMOs and other mortgage-related
      securities very volatile when interest rates change. That volatility
      may affect an Underlying Fund's share price.

o     Forward Rolls. Certain Underlying Funds can enter into "forward roll"
      transactions with respect to mortgage-related securities. In this type
      of transaction, the Underlying Fund sells a mortgage-related security
      to a buyer for a specific settlement date and simultaneously agrees to
      repurchase a similar security on a future settlement date at a set
      price.

      During the period between the sale settlement date and the repurchase
      settlement date the Underlying Funds will not be entitled to receive
      interest and principal payments on the securities that have been sold.
      It is possible that the market value of the securities that an
      Underlying Fund has agreed to repurchase may decline below the price
      that the Underlying Fund is obligated to pay for the securities, or
      that the counterparty might default in its obligation. At any given
      time, a substantial portion of certain Underlying Fund's assets may be
      subject to these risks.

Private-Issuer Securities. Certain Underlying Funds may invest primarily in
debt securities issued by private issuers that do not offer any credit
backing of the U.S. government. These may include multi-class debt or
pass-through certificates secured by mortgage loans. They may be issued by
banks, savings and loans, mortgage bankers or special trusts. Certain
Underlying Funds can buy other types of asset-backed securities
collateralized by loans, other assets or receivables. Private issuer
securities are subject to the credit risks of the issuer. There is the risk
that the issuer may not make timely payment of interest or repay principal
when due, although in some cases those payment obligations may be supported
by insurance or guarantees. Certain Underlying Funds limit their investments
in private issuer securities to "investment-grade" securities, which are
rated within the four highest rating categories by Moody's Investors Service,
Inc. or Standard & Poor's Rating Service and to unrated securities that the
Manager deems comparable to rated securities in those categories. The
Underlying Funds are not automatically required to dispose of a security if
its rating falls after the Underlying Fund buys it. However, the Manager will
evaluate those securities to determine whether to keep them in the Underlying
Fund's portfolio.

Participation Interest in Loans. These securities represent an undivided
fractional interest in a loan obligation of a borrower. They are typically
purchased from banks or dealers that have made the loan or are members of the
loan syndicate. The loans may be to foreign or U.S. companies. They are
subject to the risk of default by the borrower. If the borrower fails to pay
interest or repay principal, an Underlying Fund may lose money on its
investment. No Underlying Fund will invest more than 5% of its net assets in
participation interests of any one borrower.

Asset-Backed Securities. Certain Underlying Funds can buy asset-backed
securities, which are fractional interests in pools of loans and are
collateralized by the loans, other assets or receivables. They are typically
issued by trusts and special purpose corporations that pass the income from
the underlying pool to the purchasers. These securities are subject to the
risk of default by the issuer as well as by the borrowers of the underlying
loans in the pool, and to interest rate and prepayment risks.

"Structured" Notes. Some of the Underlying Funds may buy "structured" notes,
which are specially-designed to replicate the value of an index (such as a
currency or securities index) or a commodity. The terms of the instrument may
be negotiated, or "structured," by the purchaser and the borrower issuing the
note.

The values of these notes will fall or rise in response to the changes in the
value of the underlying security or index. The value of these notes may be
affected by events pertaining to the credit of the borrower, referred to as
"counter-party" risks. The values of these notes are also subject to interest
rate risks and therefore some of the Underlying Funds could receive more or
less than they originally invested when a note matures, or they might receive
less interest than the stated coupon payment if the underlying investment or
index does not perform as anticipated. The prices of these notes may be very
volatile and they may have a limited trading market, making it difficult for
an Underlying Fund to value them or sell them at an acceptable price.

Zero-Coupon and "Stripped" Securities. Some of the debt securities that
certain of the Underlying Funds may buy are zero-coupon bonds that pay no
interest and are issued at a substantial discount from their face value. They
may be issued by the U.S. government or private issuers. "Stripped"
securities are the separate income or principal components of a debt
security. Some mortgage related securities may be stripped, with each
component having a different proportion of principal or interest payments.
One class might receive all the interest and the other all the principal
payments. The securities that are entitled to only the principal payments may
be sold at a substantial discount from the market value of the initial
mortgage related security.

Zero-coupon and stripped securities are particularly sensitive to changes in
interest rates and may be subject to greater price fluctuations as a result
of interest rate changes than interest-bearing securities. Some of the
Underlying Funds may have to pay out the imputed income on zero-coupon
securities without receiving the actual cash currently. The value of
interest-only and principal-only securities mortgage related securities are
also very sensitive to changes in prepayments of the underlying mortgages.
The market for zero-coupon and stripped securities may be limited, making it
difficult for the Fund to sell its holdings at an acceptable price.

Risks of Non-Diversification. One of the Underlying Funds, Oppenheimer
International Bond  Fund is "non-diversified" under the Investment Company
Act. Accordingly, these funds can invest a greater portion of their assets in
the securities of a single issuer than "diversified" funds. To the extent
that these funds invest a relatively high percentage of their assets in the
securities of a single issuer or a limited number of issuers, these funds are
subject to additional risk of loss if those securities lose market value.

Money Market Instruments. To seek current income while preserving liquidity,
the Funds and some of the Underlying Funds can also invest in "money market
instruments," which are short-term, high-quality, dollar-denominated money
market instruments issued by the U.S. government, domestic and foreign
corporations and financial institutions, and other entities. These include
U.S. government securities, high-quality corporate debt securities having a
remaining maturity of one year or less, bankers' acceptances, commercial
paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, and other short-term
corporate debt obligations. While money market instruments generally have
lower risks than other fixed income securities, they may also offer lower
returns.

Investments in Institutional Money Market Fund.  The Funds and the Underlying
Funds also can also invest their free cash balances in the Class E shares of
Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund, to provide liquidity or for
defensive purposes.  A Fund or an Underlying Fund may invest 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, and is part of the Oppenheimer Family of
Funds. It invests in a variety of 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 Funds and the Underlying Funds
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 on that
would be been derived from other types of investments that would provide
liquidity. As shareholders, the Funds and the Underlying Funds will be
subject to their 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 Funds' and the Underlying
Funds' advisory fee to the extent of the their share of the Oppenheimer
Institutional Money Market Fund's advisory fee.

DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS. Each of the Underlying Funds may use derivatives to
seek increased returns or to try to hedge investment and interest rate risks.
Oppenheimer International Growth Fund can invest up to 25% of its net assets
in derivatives. The other Underlying Funds have no stated limit on derivative
investments, but will comply with all applicable laws and regulations. There
is no target range for indirect investment in derivatives at the Fund level.

In general terms, a derivative investment is one whose value depends on (or
is derived from) the value of an underlying asset, interest rate, index,
commodity or currency. Options, futures, interest rate swaps, structured
notes, mortgage-related securities and forward contracts are examples of
derivatives that some of the Underlying Funds could use.

If the issuer of the derivative does not pay the amount due, an Underlying
Fund may lose money on the investment. Also, the underlying security or
investment on which the derivative is based, and the derivative itself, might
not perform the way the Manager expected it to perform. If that happens, an
Underlying Fund's share price could fall and it may realize less income than
expected. Some derivatives may be illiquid, making it difficult to value them
or sell them at an acceptable price. Using derivatives can increase the
volatility of an Underlying Fund's share price.

Futures and Options. Certain Underlying Funds use futures contracts and put
and call options to attempt to increase investment return, and to manage
exposure to changing interest rates, commodity prices, securities prices, and
other economic variables. Futures and options may be considered derivative
investments.

Certain Underlying Funds can purchase and sell commodity futures contracts,
forward contracts, options on futures contracts and options and futures on
commodity indices. Certain Underlying Funds can also buy and sell other types
of futures contracts and options relating to them.

Buying and Selling Put and Call Options. A call option gives the buyer the
right, but not the obligation, to purchase an underlying asset at a specified
price. A put option gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to
sell an underlying asset at a specified price. Selling a put or a call option
obligates the seller to respectively buy or sell an underlying asset at a
specified price if the option is exercised. Certain Underlying Funds may buy
and sell exchange-traded and over-the-counter options.

Certain Underlying Funds may sell ("write") calls if they are "covered." That
means the Underlying Fund already owns the securities that are subject to the
call. For other calls, an Underlying Fund must segregate liquid assets to
cover its potential obligation under the call. For certain Underlying Funds,
there is no limit on the amount of its total assets that may be subject to
"covered" calls. Certain Underlying Funds may also sell puts. In doing so, an
Underlying Fund must segregate liquid assets to cover its obligations under
the put. No more than 50% of any Underlying Fund's total assets may be
subject to puts that it sells.

Futures Contracts. A commodity futures contract obligates the seller to
deliver at a specified date a specified quantity of a commodity at a
specified price. In practice, only a very small percentage of all futures
contracts result in actual delivery of the underlying commodity. At the
maturity of a futures contract, an Underlying Fund may either accept or make
delivery of the asset specified in the contract, or at or prior to maturity
enter into a closing transaction involving the purchase or sale of an
offsetting contract. Closing transactions with respect to futures contracts
are effected on a commodities exchange; a clearing corporation associated
with the exchange assumes responsibility for closing out such contracts.

Forward Contracts. Certain Underlying Funds may invest in forward contracts
to buy or sell foreign currency for future delivery at a fixed price. An
Underlying Fund may use them to try to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a
security denominated in a foreign currency that the Underlying Fund has
purchased or sold, or to protect against possible losses from changes in the
relative value of the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency. Certain Underlying
Funds may also use "cross hedging," a technique that seeks to hedge against
changes in currencies other than the currency in which a security is
denominated. The use of forward contracts may reduce the gain on an
investment that would otherwise result from a change in the relationship
between the U.S. dollar and the foreign currency in which the investment is
denominated or may not fully offset a loss resulting from the change in the
relative value.

Swap Transactions. Swap transactions are privately negotiated agreements
between an Underlying Fund and a counterparty to exchange or swap investment
cash flows or assets at specified intervals in the future. The obligations
may extend beyond one year.

There is no central exchange or market for swap transactions and therefore
they are less liquid investments than exchange-traded instruments. If an
Underlying Fund were to sell a swap it owned to a third party, the Underlying
Fund would still remain primarily liable on the obligations underlying the
swap contract. Additionally, the Underlying Fund would bear the risk that the
counterparty might default under a swap agreement.

Certain Underlying Funds may enter into credit default swaps, both (i)
directly and (ii) indirectly in the form of a swap embedded within a
structured security to protect against the risk that a debt security will
default. An Underlying Fund pays a fee to enter into the trade and receives a
fixed payment during the life of the swap. If there is a credit event (for
example, the security fails to timely pay interest or principal), the
Underlying Fund either delivers the defaulted bond (if the Underlying Fund
has taken the short position in the credit default swap, also known as
"buying credit protection") or pays the par amount of the defaulted bond (if
the Underlying Fund had taken the long position in the credit default swap,
also know as "selling credit protection"). Risks of credit default swaps
include the cost of paying for credit protection if there are no credit
events, and adverse pricing when purchasing bonds to satisfy its delivery
obligation where the Underlying Fund took a short position in the swap and
there has been a credit event.

Certain Underlying Funds can engage in total return swaps. A total return
swap gives an Underlying Fund the right to receive the appreciation in value
of an asset in return for paying a fee to the counterparty. The fee paid by
the Underlying Fund will typically be determined by multiplying the face
value of the swap agreement by an agreed-upon interest rate. If the asset
declines in value over the term of the swap, the Underlying Fund would also
be required to pay the dollar value of the that decline to the counterparty.

The applicable Underlying Funds intend to invest in swap transactions only if
they are excluded from regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
under the Commodity Exchange Act and the rules thereunder.

Commodity-Linked "Structured" Hybrid Securities. One of the Underlying Funds,
Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund, invests in commodity-linked
"structured" securities to gain exposure to commodities markets. Structured
securities are hybrid instruments typically issued by banks, brokerage firms,
insurance companies and other corporations. They are considered "hybrid"
instruments because they have both commodity-like and security-like
characteristics. In general, hybrid instruments have characteristics of debt
securities and either commodity futures contracts or commodity options
contracts, or a combination of both. Structured hybrid instruments are
derivatives because at least part of their value is derived from the value of
the underlying commodity, commodity index or other economic variable. The
value of a hybrid instrument typically is based on the price movements of a
physical commodity (such as heating oil, livestock, or agricultural
products), a commodity futures contract, a commodity index, or some other
readily measurable variable that reflects changes in the value of particular
commodities or the commodities markets. The securities are referred to as
"structured" securities because the purchaser can negotiate with the issuer
to obtain specific terms and features that are tailored to the purchaser's
investment needs.

Because the performance of structured hybrid instruments is linked to the
performance of an underlying commodity, commodity index or other economic
variable, those investments are subject to "market risks" with respect to the
movements of the commodity markets and may be subject to certain other risks
that do not affect traditional equity and debt securities. If the interest
payment on a hybrid instrument is linked to the value of a particular
commodity, commodity index or other economic variable and the underlying
investment loses value, the purchaser might not receive the anticipated
interest on its investment. If the amount of principal to be repaid on a
structured hybrid instrument is linked to the value of a particular
commodity, commodity index or other economic variable, the purchaser might
not receive all of the principal at maturity of the investment.

The value of the structured hybrid instruments the Oppenheimer Commodity
Strategy Total Return Fund buys may fluctuate significantly because the
values of the underlying investments to which they are linked are themselves
extremely volatile. The risk of loss associated with a particular instrument
may be significantly higher than 50% of the value of the investment at any
time. Additionally, the particular terms of a structured hybrid instrument
may create economic leverage by requiring payments that are a multiple of the
price increase or decrease of the underlying commodity, commodity index, or
other economic variable. Economic leverage may increase the volatility of the
structured hybrid instruments because they would increase or decrease in
value more quickly than the underlying commodity, commodity index or other
economic variable. A liquid secondary market may not exist for the structured
hybrid instruments the Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund buys,
which may make it difficult to sell such instruments at an acceptable price
or to accurately value them.



Risks Of Leverage. Certain derivatives that some Underlying Funds may buy
involve a degree of leverage.  Economic leverage occurs when an investor has
the right to a return on an investment that exceeds the return that the
investor would be expected to receive based on the amount contributed to the
investment. Economically leveraged investments can increase the gain or the
loss associated with changes in the value of an underlying economic variable.
Underlying Funds have limits on the leverage ratio of each investment they
can buy as well as on their overall portfolio.

Repurchase Agreements. Certain Underlying Funds can enter into repurchase
agreements for investment purposes. They also may be used for cash management
purposes or in swap transactions for liquidity. In a repurchase transaction,
an Underlying Fund buys a security and simultaneously sells it to the seller
for delivery at a future date. Repurchase agreements must be fully
collateralized. However, if the seller fails to pay the resale price on the
delivery date, the Underlying Fund may incur costs in disposing of the
collateral and may experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to
do so. If the default on the part of the seller is due to its bankruptcy, the
Underlying Fund's ability to liquidate the collateral may be delayed or
limited.

Investments By "Funds of Funds." Class Y shares of certain Underlying Funds
may also be offered as an investment to other Oppenheimer funds that act as
"funds of funds." The Boards of Directors or Trustees of those Underlying
Funds have approved making each Underlying Fund's shares available as an
investment to the Funds and to such other funds of funds, which may invest
significant portions of their assets in shares of the Underlying Funds, as
described in their respective prospectuses. The Funds and other funds of
funds, individually and/or collectively, may own significant amounts of those
Underlying Fund's shares from time to time. Funds of funds typically use
asset allocation strategies under which they may increase or reduce the
amount of their investment in the Underlying Fund frequently, which may occur
on a daily basis under volatile market conditions. Depending on a number of
factors, such as the flows of cash into and from an Underlying Fund as a
result of the activity of other investors and the Underlying Fund's
then-current liquidity, those purchases and redemptions of an Underlying
Fund's shares by the Funds and/or such other funds of funds could require the
Underlying Fund to purchase or sell portfolio securities, increasing its
transaction costs and possibly reduce its performance, if the size of those
purchases and redemptions were significant relative to the size of the
Underlying Fund.

Industry And Sector Focus. At times, some of the Underlying Funds may
increase the relative emphasis of their investments in a particular industry,
group of industries or sector. Stocks of issuers in a particular industry or
sector might be affected by changes in economic conditions or by changes in
government regulations, availability of basic resources or supplies, or other
events that affect that industry or sector more than others. If an Underlying
Fund has a greater emphasis on investments in a particular industry or
sector, its share value may fluctuate in response to events affecting that
industry or sector to a greater extent than the share value of funds without
such an emphasis.

OTHER INVESTMENT STRATEGIES. To seek their objectives, the Underlying Funds
may also use certain of the investment techniques and strategies described
below. The Manager of an Underlying Fund might not always use all of the
strategies described below. These investments and techniques have their own
risks, although some are designed to help reduce overall investment or market
risks.

Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Investments of an Underlying Fund may be
illiquid if they do not have an active trading market, making it difficult to
value them or sell 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. Of the Underlying Funds that can invest in illiquid or restricted
securities, none of them will invest more than 15% of net assets in such
securities. Certain restricted securities that are eligible for resale to
qualified institutional purchasers may not be subject to that limit. The
Manager monitors Underlying Funds' holdings of illiquid securities on an
ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any holdings to maintain adequate
liquidity.

Loans of Portfolio Securities.  Some of the Underlying Funds have entered
into a Securities Lending Agreement with JPMorgan Chase. Under that
agreement, securities in the portfolio of an Underlying Fund may be loaned to
brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The Securities Lending
Agreement provides that loans must be adequately collateralized and may be
made only in conformity with the Underlying Fund's Securities Lending
Guidelines, adopted by its Board of Directors or Trustees. The value of the
securities loaned may not exceed 25% of the value of the Underlying Fund's
net assets.

Purchases & Sales by Other Funds.  An Underlying Fund may have investment
policies similar to those of another Underlying Fund and/or other funds
advised by the Manager. If one of those other funds purchases or sells a
particular security at the same time that the Underlying Fund is purchasing
or selling it, such purchases or sales could affect the supply or price of
the security. The simultaneous purchase of a security by one Underlying Fund
and its sale by another Underlying Fund could also increase the trading costs
borne indirectly by the Funds.

Additional information about each Underlying Fund is contained in its
prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. To obtain a prospectus or
Statement of Additional Information of any of the Underlying Funds, simply
call the toll-free number on the back cover of this prospectus. Those
documents  and other information about the Underlying Funds may also be
viewed or downloaded on the Manager's website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

Measurement of Investment Restrictions.  Investment restrictions, such as a
required minimum or maximum investment in a particular type of security, are
measured at the time each Fund purchases a security. The status, market
value, maturity, credit quality, or other characteristics of each Fund's or
Underlying Fund's securities may change after they are purchased, and this
may cause the amount of each Fund's or Underlying Fund's assets invested in
such securities to exceed the stated maximum restriction or fall below the
stated minimum restriction. If this occurs, it would not be considered a
violation of the investment restriction.

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

Portfolio Turnover. A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as
"portfolio turnover." It is not anticipated that any of the Funds will have a
portfolio turnover rate of over 100%. An  Underlying Fund may engage in
active and frequent trading to try to achieve its objectives, however, and
may have a high portfolio turnover (for example, over 100%). If a Fund or an
Underlying Fund realizes capital gains when it sells investments, it must
generally pay those gains out to shareholders, increasing their taxable
distributions. Increased portfolio turnover creates higher brokerage and
transaction costs (and may reduce performance). However, most of the Funds'
portfolio transactions involve trades in the Underlying Funds that do not
entail brokerage commissions.

PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS. Each Fund's portfolio holdings are included in
semi-annual and annual reports that are distributed to shareholders of the
Funds within 60 days after the close of the period for which such report is
being made. Each 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 and on its EDGAR filing website.
Therefore, portfolio holdings of the Funds are made publicly available no
later than 60 days after the close of each of the Funds' fiscal quarters. The
same policies apply to the holdings of each of the Underlying Funds.

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

How the Funds are Managed

THE MANAGER. The Manager chooses each Fund's investments and handles its
day-to-day business. The Manager carries out its duties, subject to the
policies established by each Fund's Board of Trustees, under an investment
advisory agreement that states the Manager's responsibilities with respect to
that Fund. The advisory agreements also describe the expenses that each Fund
is responsible for paying to conduct its business.

      The Manager has been an investment adviser since January 1960. The
Manager and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates managed more than $260
billion in assets as of December 31, 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 Manager will not
charge a management fee to the Funds, however the Manager will collect
indirect management fees through the investments in the Underlying Funds. The
estimated indirect management fees of the Funds, as a percent of their
average daily net assets are as follows:


                           Class A  Class B  Class C  Class N Class Y
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition 2025 Fund        0.65%    0.65%    0.65%    0.65%   0.65%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition 2040 Fund        0.67%    0.67%    0.67%    0.67%   0.67%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition 2050 Fund        0.68%    0.68%    0.68%    0.68%   0.68%
----------------------------------------------------------------------

      The Manager has voluntarily agreed to a total expense limitation on the
aggregate amount of combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying
Fund level) expenses, as follows:

                           Class A  Class B  Class C  Class N Class Y
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition 2025 Fund        1.50%    2.25%    2.25%    1.75%   1.25%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition 2040 Fund        1.50%    2.25%    2.25%    1.75%   1.25%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition 2050 Fund        1.50%    2.25%    2.25%    1.75%   1.25%
----------------------------------------------------------------------


The limitations will be applied after giving effect to reimbursements by the
Distributor of 12b-1 fees paid by a Fund with respect to Class A shares of
any Underlying Fund that does not offer  Class Y shares. The expense
limitations do not include extraordinary expenses and other expenses not
incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business and the Manager is not
required to waive or reimburse Fund expenses in excess of the indirect
management fees earned from investments in the Underlying Funds.


A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees' approval of each
Fund's investment advisory contract will be available in the Fund's
Semi-Annual Report to the shareholders for the period ending August 31, 2008.

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

You can buy shares several ways, as described below. The Funds' 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 a 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, Class N or Class Y 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 federal 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 an Asset Builder Plan. You may purchase shares of
      the Funds 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 shares
of the Funds with a minimum initial investment of $1,000 and make additional
investments at any time with as little as $50. There are reduced initial
minimums available in certain circumstances, including 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 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.

o     The minimum purchase amounts listed do not apply to omnibus accounts.

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 you must
submit your purchase order and whether the adviser is an authorized agent for
the receipt of purchase orders.

Net Asset Value. Each Fund calculates the net asset value of each class its
of shares based upon the net asset value per share of the applicable class of
the Underlying Funds as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (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."

For each Underlying Fund, the net asset value per share for a class of shares
on a "regular business day" is determined by dividing the value of the
Underlying 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 Underlying Fund assets are valued primarily on the basis of current
market quotations. If market quotations are not readily available or do not
accurately reflect the 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 NYSE  or market on which the security is principally
traded, that security may be valued by another method that the Underlying
Fund's Board of Trustees or Directors believes accurately reflects its 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 Underlying
Fund's foreign investments may change on days when investors cannot buy or
redeem the Underlying Fund's shares.

The Boards of Trustees/Directors have adopted valuation procedures for the
Underlying Funds and have 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 applicable Board at its next scheduled meeting after the
fair valuation is 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 Underlying 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 a securities markets (for example, a foreign securities
market closes early because of a natural disaster). The Underlying Funds use
fair value pricing procedures to reflect what the Manager  and the Board
believe to be more accurate values for the Underlying Funds' portfolio
securities, although they may not always be able to accurately determine such
values. In additions the discussion of "time-zone arbitrage" describes
effects that the Underlying Funds' fair value pricing policy is intended to
counteract.

If, after the close of the principal market on which a security held by an
Underlying Fund is traded and before the time as of which the Underlying
Fund's net asset values are calculated that day, a significant event occurs
that the Manager learns of and believes 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 values 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 a 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 DO THE FUNDS OFFER? The Funds offer 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 a particular
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 adviser. 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. Each 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 adviser 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 each 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 adviser 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 each 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, a 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       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 Funds 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 or financial intermediary when purchasing shares or the Transfer
Agent or financial intermediary 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 Funds at reduced sales charge rates set forth in
the table above under the Funds' "Right of Accumulation" or a "Letter of
Intent." The Funds reserve 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 Funds 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 and advisor sold Section 529 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 and Single K Plans for the
      benefit of a sole proprietor). If you are buying shares directly from
      the Funds, you must inform the Distributor of your eligibility and
      holdings at the time of your purchase in order to qualify for this
      Right of Accumulation. If you are buying shares through your financial
      intermediary, you must notify your intermediary of your eligibility for
      this 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 Funds 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 all your eligible Oppenheimer fund shares based
      on the current offering price, to determine what Class A sales charge
      rate you may qualify for on your current purchase.

      Investors may also count Class A, Class B, Class C, Class G and Class H
      unit purchases in advisor sold Section 529 plans, for which the Manager
      or the Distributor serves as the Program Manager or Program
      Distributor, to determine which Class A sales charge will apply to a
      current Class A share purchase. You must notify the Distributor or your
      current intermediary of any qualifying 529 plan holding.

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 or Class A, Class B, Class C,
         Class G and Class H unit purchases in advisor sold Section 529
         plans, for which the Manager or Distributor serves as the Program
         Manager or Program Distributor over a 13-month period. Purchases of
         Class N shares or Class Y shares, purchases made by reinvestment of
         dividends or capital gains distributions, purchases of Class A
         shares under the "reinvestment privilege" described below, and
         purchases of Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
         or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on which a sales charge has not been
         paid, will not be counted as "qualified purchases" for satisfying
         the terms of a Letter. You must notify the Distributor or your
         financial intermediary of any qualifying 529 plan holdings.

         The total amount of your intended purchases will determine the
         reduced sales charge rate that will apply to your Class A share
         purchases of the Fund during the 13-month period. 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. You may also be able to
         apply the Right of Accumulation to these purchases.



Other Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers. The Funds and the
Distributor offer other opportunities to purchase shares without front-end or
contingent deferred sales charges under the programs described below. The
Funds reserve 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 a Fund may be reinvested in shares of
      that Fund, or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which shares of a
      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 or financial intermediary to elect this option and must have an
      existing account in the fund selected for reinvestment.
o     Exchanges of Shares. Shares of the Funds 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 Funds 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 certain circumstances in which sales
      charges may apply to an exchange.
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 a Fund, or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which
      shares of that 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. An 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. The reinvestment privilege does not
      apply to reinvestment purchases made through automatic investment
      options.
o     Other Special Reductions and Waivers. The Funds 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 classes 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, which may be ordered by
      calling 1.800.225.5677 or 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 of 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 1.00%
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 Funds 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 purchase 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 Funds 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
                                               Redemptions in That Year
   Which Purchase Order was Accepted      (As % of Amount Subject to Charge)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 0 - 1                                   5.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 1 - 2                                   4.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 2 - 3                                   3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 3 - 4                                   3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 4 - 5                                   2.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 5 - 6                                   1.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
              More than 6                                None
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the table, a "year" is a 12-month period. In applying the contingent
deferred sales charge, all purchases are considered to have been made on the
first regular business day of the month in which the purchase was made.

Automatic Conversion of Class B Shares. Class B shares automatically convert
to Class A shares 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 1.00%
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 Funds 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 1.00% 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 a 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.

      Institutional investors that buy Class Y shares for their customers'
accounts may impose charges on those accounts. The procedures for buying,
selling, exchanging and transferring a 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. Each Fund has adopted a Service Plan for
      Class A shares that reimburses the Distributor for a portion of the
      costs of providing services provided to Class A shareholders. Each 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 each 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 a 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 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.

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The
      Funds have 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 in servicing
      accounts. Under the plans, each 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 1.00% 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 each 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 1.00% 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 1.00% 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 will 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)eeperPro 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 Funds on those shares to reimburse
      FACore, 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 Underlying
Funds. 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 Funds or directly or
indirectly by the Underlying Funds 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
Funds.

"Financial intermediaries" are firms that offer and sell Fund shares to their
clients, or provide shareholder services to the Funds, or both, and receive
compensation for doing so. Your securities dealer or financial adviser, 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
Funds' 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 Funds 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 Funds
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 Funds 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 Funds 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.

the account registration (and the dealer of record) may request certain
account transactions through a special section of that website. To perform
account transactions or obtain account information online, you must first
obtain a user I.D. and password on that website. If you do not want to have
Internet account transaction capability for your account, please call the
Transfer Agent at 1.800.225.5677. At times, the website may be inaccessible
or its transaction features may be unavailable.

AUTOMATIC WITHDRAWAL AND EXCHANGE PLANS. The Funds have several plans that
enable you to sell shares automatically or exchange them to another
OppenheimerFunds account on a regular basis. Please call the Transfer Agent
or consult the Statement of Additional Information for details.

RETIREMENT PLANS. You may buy shares of the Funds for your retirement plan
account. If you participate in a plan sponsored by your employer, the plan
trustee or administrator must buy the shares for your plan account. The
Distributor also offers a number of different retirement plans that
individuals and employers can use:

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These include regular IRAs, Roth IRAs,
      SIMPLE IRAs and rollover IRAs.

SEP-IRAs. These are Simplified Employee Pension Plan IRAs for small business
      owners or self-employed individuals.

403(b)(7) Custodial Plans. These are tax-deferred plans for employees of
      eligible tax-exempt organizations, such as schools, hospitals and
      charitable organizations.

401(k) Plans. These are special retirement plans for businesses.

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 Funds
let you sell your shares by writing a letter, by wire, by telephone or on the
internet. 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.

Certain Requests Require a Signature Guarantee. To protect you and the Funds
      from fraud, the following redemption requests must be in writing and
      must have 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 Fund
      shares in your plan account.

Receiving Redemption Proceeds by Wire. While the Funds normally send 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
      Funds 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 Funds redeem 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 Funds 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 the Funds 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 that 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 Funds 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  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 another fund, you must obtain its prospectus and
      should read it carefully.

      For tax purposes, an exchange of shares of a 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 a 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 a 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 Manager's
ability to manage a 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, a 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 Funds' Boards 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 Advisers. The Funds 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 such 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. 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 Funds 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 a 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 Section 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 Funds, the Distributor, the Manager and the Transfer Agent
encourage financial intermediaries to apply each Fund's policies to their
customers who invest indirectly in a 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 Section 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 applicable 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 Funds' Boards have 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 a Fund held in his or her account to another eligible
      Oppenheimer fund once in a 30 calendar-day period. When shares are
      exchanged into the 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 a 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 Funds' 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 Fund accounts 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 for information about the 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 of a Fund at any time the Board
      believes it is in a Fund's best interest to do so.

Telephone transaction privileges for purchases, redemptions or exchanges may
      be modified, suspended or terminated by the Funds at any time. The
      Funds will provide you notice whenever it is required to do so by
      applicable law. If an account has more than one owner, the Funds 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
      Funds 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 Funds 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 Funds' share holdings in the Underlying Funds will fluctuate.
      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 Funds if the
      account value has fallen below $500 for reasons other than a decline in
      the market value of the shares. In some cases, involuntary redemptions
      may be made to repay the Distributor for losses from the cancellation
      of share purchase orders. See the section "How to Buy Shares -
      Cancellation of Purchase Orders" in the Statement of Additional
      Information for more information.

Shares may be "redeemed in kind" under unusual circumstances. This means that
      the redemption proceeds will be paid with liquid securities from a
      Fund's portfolio, normally shares of one or more of the Underlying
      Funds. If a 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 Funds 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 Funds or the Transfer
      Agent may use this information to attempt to verify your identity. The
      Funds may not be able to establish an account if the necessary
      information is not received. The Funds may also place limits on Fund
      transactions while it is in the process of attempting to verify your
      identity. Additionally, if a Fund is unable to verify your identity
      after your account is established, the Fund may be required to redeem
      your Fund 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 a 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 ("IRS").

To avoid sending duplicate copies of materials to households, the Funds will
      mail only one copy of each prospectus, annual and semi-annual report
      and annual notice of the Funds' privacy policy to shareholders having
      the same last name and address on the Funds' records. The consolidation
      of these mailings, called householding, benefits the Funds 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 Funds intend to declare 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 Funds have no fixed
dividend rates and cannot guarantee that they will pay any dividends or
distributions.

CAPITAL GAINS. The Funds may realize capital gains on the sale of portfolio
securities. If so, they may make distributions out of any net short-term or
long-term capital gains annually. A Fund may make supplemental distributions
of dividends and capital gains following the end of its fiscal year. There
can be no assurance that a 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 a Fund. You can elect to reinvest all dividends
      and capital gains distributions in additional shares of a 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 a 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
      Oppenheimer fund if that fund is available for exchanges and if you
      have an account established in that fund.

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 a 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 generally are taxable as ordinary income. Long-term capital
gains are taxable as long-term capital gains when distributed to
shareholders, regardless of how long you have held your shares. Certain
dividend income and long-term capital gains received by the Funds are
eligible for taxation at a reduced rate that applies to non-corporate
shareholders. Whether you reinvest your distributions in additional shares or
take them in cash, the tax treatment is the same.

      Dividends and distributions to Fund shareholders may be from amounts a
Fund receives as dividends or distributions from the Underlying Funds or from
gains on the sale of shares in the Underlying Funds. Changes in a Fund's
portfolio holdings may increase turnover of the Fund's assets, which may
result in the realization of additional taxable gains or losses by the Fund.
It may also result in a larger portion of any net gains being treated as
short-term capital gains, which generally would be taxed as ordinary income
when distributed to shareholders. Generally, the character of the income or
capital gains that a Fund receives from the Underlying Funds will "pass
through" to the Fund, subject to certain exceptions, as long as the
Underlying Funds continue to qualify as "regulated investment companies". As
noted above, distributions of any gains and income will be taxable to
shareholders even if those distributions are reinvested in Fund shares.

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

      The Funds intend each year to qualify as regulated investment companies
under the Internal Revenue Code, but reserve the right not to so qualify. As
regulated investment companies, the Funds will not be subject to Federal
income taxes on any of their income, provided that they satisfy certain
income, diversification and distribution requirements.

      If a shareholder is neither a lawful permanent resident nor a citizen
of the United States or if a shareholder is a foreign entity, the Fund's
ordinary income dividends (which include distributions of net-short-term
capital gains) generally will be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax,
unless a lower treaty rate applies. However, for taxable years beginning
before January 1, 2008, certain distributions designated by the Fund as
either interest related dividends or short term gain dividends and paid to a
foreign shareholder would be eligible for an exemption from U.S. withholding
tax. It is not expected that the Funds would be designating any interest
related dividends.

      By law, your dividends and redemption proceeds will be subject to a
withholding tax if you have not provided a taxpayer identification number or
Social Security Number or if the number you have provided is incorrect.

      The Funds intend to invest in an Underlying Fund only if it qualifies
for treatment as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue
Code. If an Underlying Fund fails to qualify as a regulated investment
company, it may be subject to federal income tax. Although there is no
assurance an Underlying Fund will qualify as a regulated investment company,
a Fund will promptly dispose of any shares in its portfolio which have been
issued by an Underlying Fund which has failed to qualify as a regulated
investment company.

Avoid "Buying a Distribution." If you buy shares on or just before the
      ex-dividend date, or just before a 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 Funds' 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 a 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 adviser
about the effect of an investment in a Fund on your particular tax situation.

More Information About The Underlying Funds

Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks capital
appreciation. This Underlying Fund currently invests mainly in common stocks
of "growth companies." These may be newer companies or established companies
of any capitalization range that the portfolio manager of this Underlying
Fund believes may appreciate in value over the long term.

This Underlying Fund's portfolio manager focuses on factors that may vary in
particular cases and over time in seeking broad diversification of the Fund's
portfolio among industries and market sectors. The portfolio manager may look
for:

o     companies in businesses with above-average growth potential,
o     companies with growth rates that the portfolio managers believe are
      sustainable over time,
o     stocks with reasonable valuations relative to their growth potential.

Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks total return by
investing mainly in debt instruments. As a non-fundamental policy (which will
not be changed without providing 60 days notice to Underlying Fund
shareholders), under normal market conditions, this Underlying Fund invests
at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in
investment-grade bonds. Those investment-grade debt securities can include:

o     domestic and foreign corporate debt obligations,
o     domestic and foreign government bonds, including U.S. government
      securities, and
o     mortgage-related securities (including CMOs) issued by private issuers.

This Underlying Fund's investments in U.S. government securities include
securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or
federally-chartered corporate entities referred to as "instrumentalities."
These include mortgage-related U.S. government securities and CMOs. This
Underlying Fund can also invest in money market instruments and other debt
obligations.

There is no set allocation of this Underlying Fund's assets among the classes
of securities that this Underlying Fund buys, but this Underlying Fund
focuses mainly on U.S. government securities and investment-grade debt
securities. However, if market conditions change, this Underlying Fund's
portfolio managers might change the relative allocation of its assets. This
Underlying Fund can invest up to 20% of its total assets in high-yield debt
securities that are below investment-grade.

This Underlying Fund seeks to maintain an average effective portfolio
duration of three to six years (measured on a dollar-weighted basis) to try
to reduce the volatility of the value of its securities portfolio. This
Underlying Fund has no limitations on the range of maturities of the debt
securities in which it can invest and therefore may hold bonds with short-,
medium- or long-term maturities. Because of market events and interest rate
changes, the duration of the portfolio might not meet that target at all
times. The Manager will attempt to maintain the overall weighted average
credit quality of the portfolio at a rating of "A-" (or equivalent) or higher
from any nationally recognized credit rating organization. This Underlying
Fund can use derivatives to seek increased returns or try to hedge investment
risks.

Oppenheimer International Bond Fund -  This Underlying Fund's primary
objective is to seek total return. As a secondary objective, this Underlying
Fund seeks income when consistent with total return. This Underlying Fund
invests mainly in debt securities of foreign government and corporate
issuers. Those debt securities generally, referred to as "bonds," include
long-term and short-term government bonds, participation interests in loans,
corporate debt obligations, "structured" notes and other debt obligations.
They may include "zero coupon" or "stripped" securities.

Under normal circumstances, this Underlying Fund invests at least 80% of its
net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in "bonds" and invests
in at least three countries other than the United States. This Underlying
Fund's non-fundamental policy of investing at least 80% of its net assets in
"bonds" will not be changed by its Board of Trustees without first providing
shareholders 60 days written notice of the change. This Underlying Fund does
not limit its investments to securities of issuers in a particular market
capitalization or maturity range or rating category, and can hold rated and
unrated securities. This Underlying Fund can invest without limit in
securities below investment grade (commonly called "junk bonds") to seek
total return and higher income. Therefore, this Underlying Fund's credit
risks are greater than those of funds that buy only investment-grade bonds.
This Underlying Fund invests in debt securities of issuers in both developed
and emerging markets throughout the world.

Oppenheimer International Growth Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks long-term
capital appreciation by investing in common stocks of foreign companies.

This Underlying Fund currently invests mainly in common stocks of growth
companies that are domiciled outside the United States or have their primary
operations outside the United States. "Growth companies" are issuers that the
Underlying Fund's portfolio manager believes have favorable long-term growth
prospects.

This Underlying Fund does not limit its investments to issuers within a
specific market capitalization range. At times, this Underlying Fund may
invest a substantial portion of its assets in a particular capitalization
range. For example, this Underlying Fund currently invests a substantial
portion of its assets in stocks issued by small- to mid-sized companies whose
prices may be more volatile than stocks issued by larger companies.

Oppenheimer International Value Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks long-term
capital appreciation.

The Underlying Fund currently invests mainly in common stocks of companies
believed by the Underlying Fund's Manager to be undervalued, that are
domiciled outside the United States or have their primary operations outside
the U.S.

The Underlying Fund does not limit its investments to issuers within a
specific market capitalization range. At times, the Underlying Fund  may
invest a substantial portion of its assets in a particular capitalization
range. For example, the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets
in stocks issued by small and mid-sized companies.

The Underlying Fund can invest in emerging markets as well as developed
markets throughout the world, although it may place greater emphasis on
investing in one or more particular regions from time to time, such as Europe
or Asia. It can invest 100% of its assets in foreign securities. Under normal
market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus
borrowings for investment purposes) in foreign common and preferred stock or
issuers in at least five different countries outside the United States.

Oppenheimer Main Street Fund(R)- This Underlying Fund seeks a high total
return. This Underlying Fund currently invests mainly in common stocks of
U.S. companies of different capitalization ranges, presently focusing on
large-capitalization issuers. It also can buy debt securities, such as bonds
and debentures, but does not currently emphasize these investments.

In selecting securities for purchase or sale by this Underlying Fund, the
portfolio managers use an investment process that combines quantitative
models, fundamental research about particular securities and individual
judgment. While this process and the inter-relationship of the factors used
may change over time and its implementation may vary in particular cases, in
general the selection process currently involves the use of:

   o  Multi-factor quantitative models:  The Fund uses both "top down" and
      "bottom up" models.  The "top down" models are primarily used to help
      the portfolio managers determine their market capitalization exposure
      (large, mid, small) and rely on indicators such as relative valuations,
      relative price trends and interest rate relationships.  The "bottom up"
      models help the portfolio managers identify the most attractive stocks
      within each market capitalization category.  These stock selection
      models are based upon many factors that measure the attractiveness of
      individual securities relative to each other.  The portfolio managers
      typically follow and analyze more than 3,000 stocks on a daily basis
      and select those that are deemed attractive.
   o  Fundamental research: The portfolio managers use internal research and
      analysis by other market analysts, with emphasis on current company
      news and industry-related events.
   o  Judgment:  The portfolio is then continuously rebalanced by the
      portfolio managers, using the tools described above.

Oppenheimer MidCap Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks capital appreciation.
This Underlying Fund invests mainly in equity securities, stocks and
securities convertible into common stock. It invests primarily in equity
companies, but can also buy foreign stocks. Under normal market conditions,
as a non-fundamental policy, this Underlying Fund invests at least 80% of its
net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in companies that have a
market capitalization of between $2 billion and $11.5 billion stocks. This
Underlying Fund's non-fundamental policy of investing at least 80% of its net
assets will not be changed by the board of trustees of this Underlying Fund
without first providing shareholders 60 days' written notice.

Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks
total return. Total return refers to the change in value of an investment in
shares of this Underlying Fund over time resulting from changes in the value
of its investments and income on those investments.

This Underlying Fund's strategy provides investment exposure to the
commodities markets. It normally invests at least 65% of its assets in:

o     "Hybrid instruments" that are commodity-linked derivatives, the value
      of which is based on the price movements of a physical commodity (such
      as heating oil, livestock, or agricultural products), a commodity
      futures contract, a commodity index (such as the GSCI), or some other
      readily measurable variable that reflects changes in the value of
      particular commodities or the commodities markets; and
o     Investment-grade and non-investment-grade corporate bonds and notes;
      securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies
      and instrumentalities; repurchase agreements; futures contracts;
      options; interest rate swaps; forward contracts; and asset-backed
      securities.

Commodity-linked derivatives provide investors with exposure to the
investment returns of "real assets" that trade in the commodities markets
without investing directly in physical commodities. "Real assets," as opposed
to stocks or bonds, are assets that have tangible properties, such as oil,
livestock, and agricultural or metal products.

This Underlying Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in a
wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary. The subsidiary invests primarily in
commodity and financial futures and options contracts, and in fixed income
securities and other investments intended to serve as margin or collateral
for the subsidiary's derivatives positions. The subsidiary is subject to the
same investment restrictions and limitations, and follows the same compliance
policies and procedures, as this Underlying Fund.

Oppenheimer Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund - This Underlying Fund's objective
is to seek capital appreciation. This Underlying Fund invests mainly in
stocks of U.S. issuers having a market capitalization up to $13 billion. That
includes both small cap stocks (stocks of issuers that have a market
capitalization under $3 billion) and mid cap stocks (stocks of issuers having
a capitalization between $3 billion and $13 billion). This Underlying Fund
has no fixed ratio for small cap and mid cap stocks in its portfolio, and
while its focus is on stocks of U.S. companies, it may invest in stocks of
small and mid cap foreign issuers as well. Under normal market conditions
this Underlying Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus the
amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities and
small cap and mid cap domestic and foreign issuers. This Underlying Fund
emphasizes investment in equity securities of companies that its portfolio
managers believe are undervalued in the marketplace.

Oppenheimer Value Fund - This Underlying Fund seeks long-term growth of
capital by investing primarily in common stocks with low price-earnings
ratios and better-than-anticipated earnings. Realization of current income is
a secondary consideration. This Underlying Fund may invest mainly in common
stocks of different capitalization ranges, but also can buy other
investments, including:

o     preferred stocks, rights and warrants and convertible debt securities,
      and
o     securities of U.S. and foreign companies, although there are limits on
      this Underlying Fund's investments in foreign securities.

......About the Funds

......Additional Information About the Funds' Investment Policies and Risks

      The investment objective, the principal investment policies, and the main
risks of the Funds are described in the Prospectus. Each Fund is a special type
of fund known as a "fund of funds" that invests primarily in a diversified
portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds. Those funds are referred to as the
"Underlying Funds." This Statement of Additional Information contains supplemental
information about those policies and risks and the types of securities the Funds'
and Underlying Funds' investment manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the "Manager"),
can select for the Funds or the Underlying Funds. Additional information is also
provided about the strategies that each Fund may use to try to achieve its
objective.

      The Funds' Investment Policies.  Each Fund normally invests in a portfolio
of Class Y shares of the Oppenheimer Underlying Funds. The Funds may invest in
Class A shares of an Underlying Fund if Class Y shares are not available. The
composition of those investments, and the factors considered in allocating the
Funds' assets among the Underlying Funds, may vary over time. From time to time,
the Funds may also invest in the securities of individual issuers directly, as
described below. The risks of such direct investments in those securities are the
same risks that the securities have in the portfolios of the Underlying Funds.
However a Fund may have greater exposure to such securities, and therefore to
such risks, when it makes a direct investment. As indicated in the Prospectus,
the Funds intend to initially invest in the following Underlying Funds:

      The Funds and the Underlying Funds are not required to use all of these
investment techniques and strategies in seeking their objectives. They may use
some of the investment techniques and strategies only at certain times or not at
all.

      For more complete information about each Underlying Fund's investment
policies and strategies, please refer to each Underlying Fund's prospectus and
SAI. You may obtain a copy of an Underlying Fund's prospectus and SAI by calling
1.800.225.5677, or by downloading it from the OppenheimerFunds, Inc. website at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com.



Equity Securities

Some of the Underlying Funds focus their investments in equity securities of U.S.
and/or foreign companies. Equity securities include common stocks, preferred
stocks, rights and warrants, and securities convertible into common stock.
Investments in equity securities may include stocks of companies of all market
capitalization ranges: small-cap, mid-cap and large-cap. Certain of the
Underlying Funds emphasize equity investments in one or more capitalization
ranges. Certain of the Underlying Funds pursue a "growth" investing strategy,
while others pursue a "value" investing policy.

      |X|...Preferred Stock.  Some of the Underlying Funds may invest in
preferred stock. 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. "Cumulative" dividend provisions require all or a
portion of prior unpaid dividends to be paid before dividends can be paid on the
issuer's common stock. Preferred stock may be "participating" stock, which means
that it may be entitled to a dividend exceeding the stated dividend in certain
cases.

      If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be less
attractive, causing the price of preferred stocks to decline. Preferred stock may
have mandatory sinking fund provisions, as well as provisions allowing calls or
redemptions prior to maturity, which can also have a negative impact on prices
when interest rates decline.

      Preferred stocks are equity securities because they do not constitute a
liability of the issuer and therefore do 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 a 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 liquidation of the
corporation.

      |X|...Convertible Securities.  Some of the Underlying Funds may invest in
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 the 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 prevailing interest rates fall and decrease when prevailing
interest rates rise. If the conversion value exceeds the investment value, the
security will behave more like an equity security. In that case, it will likely
sell at a premium over its conversion value and its price will tend to fluctuate
directly with the price of the underlying security.

      While some convertible securities are a form of debt security, in certain
cases their conversion feature (allowing conversion into equity securities)
causes them to be regarded by the Manager more as "equity equivalents." As a
result, the credit rating assigned to the security might have less impact on the
Manager's investment decision with respect to convertible securities than in the
case of non-convertible fixed-income securities. Convertible debt securities are
subject to the credit risks and interest rate risks described below in "Main
Risks of Debt Securities."

      To determine whether convertible securities should be regarded as "equity
equivalents," the Manager may examine 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.

      |X|...Rights and Warrants. Some of the Underlying Funds may invest in
warrants or rights. For specific limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments
in rights and warrants, refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each
Underlying Fund.

      Warrants basically are options to purchase equity securities at specific
prices valid for a specific period of time. Their prices do not necessarily move
parallel to the prices of the underlying securities. Rights are similar to
warrants, but normally have a short duration and are distributed directly by the
issuer to its shareholders. Rights and warrants have no voting rights, receive no
dividends and have no rights with respect to the assets of the issuer.

      |X|...Growth Companies. Some of the Underlying Funds invest in growth
companies. Growth companies are those companies that the Manager believes are
entering into growth cycles in their businesses, 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 may have a variety of characteristics that, in the
Manager's view, define them as "growth" issuers. They may be generating or
applying new technologies, new or improved distribution techniques or new
services. They may own or develop natural resources. They may 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 Manager believes are favorable for the long
term. The portfolio managers of the Underlying Funds look for growth companies
with strong, capable management sound financial and accounting policies,
successful product development and marketing and other factors.

      |X|...Value Investing. In selecting equity investments, the portfolio
managers of certain Underlying Funds may use a value investing style. In using a
value approach, the portfolio managers seek stock and other equity securities
that appear to be temporarily undervalued, by various measures, such as
price/earnings ratios. Value investing seeks stocks having prices that are low in
relation to their real worth or future prospects, in the hope that the portfolios
will realize appreciation in the value of their holdings when other investors
realize the intrinsic value of the stock.

      Using value investing requires research as to the issuer's underlying
financial condition and prospects. Some of the measures used to identify these
securities include, among others:

o     Price/Earnings Ratio, which is the stock's price divided by its earnings
            per share. A stock having a price/earnings ratio lower than its
            historical range, or the market as a whole or that of similar
            companies may offer attractive investment opportunities.
o     Price/Book Value Ratio, which is the stock price divided by the book value
            of the company per share, which measures the company's stock price in
            relation to its asset value.
o     Discounted Future Value Analysis, which involves two steps: determining the
            probable value of the stock at a specific point in the future by
            researching the current and future prospects of the company; and then
            comparing the probable value to the current stock price to determine
            if the stock is sufficiently undervalued and if it offers an
            attractive return over the investment horizon.
o     Valuation of Assets, which compares the stock price to the value of the
            company's underlying assets, including their projected value in the
            marketplace and liquidation value.

      |X|   Small- and Mid-Cap Issuers.  Securities of small- and
mid-capitalization issuers may be subject to greater price volatility in general
than securities of large-cap issuers. Therefore, to the degree that an Underlying
Fund has investments in small- or mid-capitalization companies at times of market
volatility, its share prices may fluctuate more than a fund that invests in the
securities of large-capitalization companies. The market capitalization ranges
used by the Underlying Funds will vary from fund to fund. For specific
information on the market capitalization ranges and types of investments in
equity securities for an Underlying Fund, refer to the prospectus and Statement
of Information for each Underlying Fund.

      |X|   Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies.  Some of the Underlying
Funds can invest in securities of small, unseasoned companies. These are
companies that have been in operation for less than three years, including the
operations of any predecessors. Securities of these companies may be subject to
volatility in their prices. They may have a limited trading market, which may
adversely affect an Underlying Fund's ability to dispose of them and can reduce
the price the Underlying Fund might be able to obtain for them. Other investors
that own a security issued by a small, unseasoned issuer for which there is
limited liquidity might trade the security when the Underlying Fund is attempting
to dispose of its holdings of that security. In that case, an Underlying Fund
might receive a lower price for its holdings than might otherwise be obtained.
For specific limitations on the Underlying Fund's investments in small,
unseasoned companies, refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each
Underlying Fund.

      |X|   Cyclical Opportunities.  Some of the Underlying Funds seek to take
advantage of changes in the business cycle by investing in companies that are
sensitive to those changes if the portfolio manager(s) of those Underlying Funds
believes they have growth potential. For example, when the economy is expanding,
companies in the consumer durable and technology sectors might benefit and offer
long-term growth opportunities. Other cyclical industries include insurance, for
example. Those Underlying Funds focus on seeking growth over the long term, but
could seek to take tactical advantage of short-term market movements or events
affecting particular issuers or industries.

      |X|   Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Some of the Underlying Funds
can invest in REITs, as well as real estate development companies and operating
companies. They can also buy shares of companies engaged in other real estate
businesses. REITs are trusts that sell shares to investors and use the proceeds
to invest in real estate. A REIT can focus on a particular project, such as a
shopping center or apartment complex, or may buy many properties or properties
located in a particular geographic region.

      To the extent a REIT focuses on a particular project, sector of the real
estate market or geographic region, its share price will be affected by economic
and political events affecting that project, sector or geographic region.
Property values may fall due to increasing vacancies or declining rents resulting
from unanticipated economic, legal, cultural or technological developments. REIT
prices also may drop because of the failure of borrowers to pay their loans, a
dividend cut, a disruption to the real estate investment sales market, changes in
federal or state taxation policies affecting REITs, and poor management.

      |X|   Investing in Foreign Securities.  Some of the Underlying Funds may
invest in foreign securities. "Foreign securities" include equity and debt
securities issued or guaranteed by companies organized under the laws of
countries other than the United States and debt securities issued or guaranteed
by governments other than the U.S. government or by foreign supra-national
entities, such as the World Bank. They 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. Securities denominated in foreign currencies issued by
U.S. companies are also considered to be "foreign securities." For specific
information on the type of securities that an Underlying Fund considers "foreign
securities" and the limitations on the total amount of assets of the Underlying
Funds that can be invested in foreign securities, refer to the prospectuses and
statements of additional information for the Underlying Funds.

      Securities of foreign issuers that are represented by American Depository
Receipts or that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange or traded in the U.S.
over-the-counter markets may be considered "foreign securities" for the purpose
of the Underlying Funds' investment allocations because they are subject to some
of the special considerations and risks, discussed below, that apply to foreign
securities traded and held abroad.

      Investing in foreign securities offers potential benefits not available
from investing solely in securities of domestic issuers. They include the
opportunity to invest in foreign issuers that appear to offer income 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 securities markets that do not move in a manner parallel to
U.S. markets, or to benefit from the appreciation relative to the U.S. Dollar of
foreign currencies in which such securities may denominated. The Underlying Funds
will hold foreign currency only in connection with the purchase or sale of
foreign securities.

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

o     reduction of income by foreign taxes;
o     fluctuation in value of foreign investments due to changes in currency,
         rates or currency 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, securities exchanges and
         brokers than in the U.S.;
o     greater difficulties in commencing lawsuits;
o     higher brokerage commission rates than in the U.S.;
o     increased risks of delays in settlement of portfolio transactions or loss
         of certificates for portfolio securities;
o     foreign withholding taxes;
o     possibilities in some countries of expropriation, confiscatory taxation,
         political, financial or social instability or adverse diplomatic
         developments; and
o     possible 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. Certain types of foreign
securities have other particular risks. The following information describes some
of the risks of particular foreign securities.

      |X|   Passive Foreign Investment Companies. Some securities of corporations
      domiciled outside the U.S. which the Underlying Funds 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 the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
      "Internal Revenue Code")ss.954.

      Investing in PFICs involves the risks associated with investing in foreign
      securities, as described above. There are also the risks that an Underlying
      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 Underlying Funds make every effort to ensure compliance with
      federal tax reporting of these investments. PFICs are considered foreign
      securities for the purposes of the Underlying Funds' minimum percentage
      requirements or limitations of investing in foreign securities.

      Subject to the limits under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
      "Investment Company Act"), the Underlying Funds may also invest in foreign
      mutual funds which are also deemed PFICs (since nearly all of the income of
      a mutual fund is generally passive income). Investing in these types of
      PFICs may allow exposure to various countries because some foreign
      countries limit, or prohibit, all direct foreign investment in the
      securities of companies domiciled therein.

      In addition to bearing their proportionate share of a Fund's expenses
      (management fees and operating expenses), shareholders will also indirectly
      bear similar expenses of such entities. Additional risks of investing in
      other investment companies are described below under "Investment in Other
      Investment Companies."

      |X|        Special Risks of Emerging and Developing Markets. Emerging and
      developing markets abroad may also offer special opportunities for
      investing but have greater risks than more developed foreign markets, such
      as those in Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. There may be
      even less liquidity in their securities markets, and settlements of
      purchases and sales of securities may be subject to additional delays. They
      are subject to greater risks of limitations on the repatriation of income
      and profits because of currency restrictions imposed by local governments.
      Those countries may also be subject to the risk of greater political and
      economic instability, which can greatly affect the volatility of prices of
      securities in those countries. The Underlying Funds' Manager will consider
      these factors when evaluating securities in these markets. For specific
      limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments in emerging and developing
      markets, refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each
      Underlying Fund.

         o  Settlement of Transactions. Settlement procedures in developing
            markets may differ from those of more established securities markets.
            Settlements may also be delayed by operational problems. Securities
            issued by developing countries and by issuers located in those
            countries may be subject to extended settlement periods. Delays in
            settlement could result in temporary periods during which a portion
            of an Underlying Fund's assets is uninvested and no return is earned
            on those assets. The inability of an Underlying Fund to make intended
            purchases of securities due to settlement problems could cause an
            Underlying Fund to miss investment opportunities. An Underlying Fund
            could suffer losses from the inability to dispose of portfolio
            securities due to settlement problems. As a result there could be
            subsequent declines in the value of the portfolio security, a
            decrease in the level of liquidity of an Underlying Fund's portfolio
            or, if an Underlying Fund has entered into a contract to sell the
            security, a possible liability to the purchaser.

         o  Price Volatility. Securities prices in developing markets may be
            significantly more volatile than is the case in more developed
            nations of the world. In particular, countries with emerging markets
            may have relatively unstable governments. That presents the risk of
            nationalization of businesses, restrictions on foreign ownership or
            prohibitions of repatriation of assets. These countries may have less
            protection of property rights than more developed countries. The
            economies of developing countries may be predominantly based on only
            a few industries and, as such, may be highly vulnerable to changes in
            local or global trade conditions.

         o  Less Developed Securities Markets. Developing market countries may
            have less well-developed securities markets and exchanges.
            Consequently they have lower trading volume than the securities
            markets of more developed countries. These markets may be unable to
            respond effectively to increases in trading volume. Therefore, prompt
            liquidation of substantial portfolio holdings may be difficult at
            times. As a result, these markets may be substantially less liquid
            than those of more developed countries, and the securities of issuers
            located in these markets may have limited marketability.

         o  Government Restrictions. In certain developing countries, government
            approval may be required for the repatriation of investment income,
            capital or the proceeds of sales of securities by foreign investors,
            such as an Underlying Fund. Also, a government might impose temporary
            restrictions on remitting capital abroad if the country's balance of
            payments deteriorates, or it might do so for other reasons. If
            government approval were delayed or refused, an Underlying Fund could
            be adversely affected. Additionally, an Underlying Fund could be
            adversely affected by the imposition of restrictions on investments
            by foreign entities.

         o  Privatization Programs. The governments in some developing countries
            have been engaged in programs to sell all or part of their interests
            in government-owned or controlled enterprises. Privatization programs
            may offer opportunities for significant capital appreciation, and the
            Manager may invest Underlying Funds assets in privatization programs
            in what it considers to be appropriate circumstances. In certain
            developing countries, the ability of foreign entities such as an
            Underlying Fund to participate in privatization programs may be
            limited by local law. Additionally, the terms on which an Underlying
            Fund might be permitted to participate may be less advantageous than
            those afforded local investors. There can be no assurance that
            privatization programs will be successful.

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

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



Debt Securities

      Some of the Underlying Funds invest in debt securities with differing
credit and maturity characteristics, and with fixed or floating interest rates,
to seek their objectives. Other Underlying Funds may invest in debt securities
for defensive purposes and/or for liquidity. Certain types of debt securities in
which the Underlying Funds may invest are described below. For specific
limitations on an Underlying Fund's investments in debt securities, refer to the
Statement of Additional Information for that fund.

      |X|   Floating Rate and Variable Rate Obligations. Some of the securities
that some of the Underlying Funds can purchase have variable or floating interest
rates The interest rate on a floating rate note is adjusted automatically
according to a stated prevailing market rate, such as a bank's prime rate, the
91-day U.S. Treasury Bill rate, or some other standard. The instrument's rate is
adjusted automatically each time the base rate is adjusted. The interest rates on
variable rate obligations are adjusted at stated periodic intervals.

      Generally, the changes in the interest rate on floating and variable rate
obligations reduce the fluctuation in their market value. As interest rates
decrease or increase, the potential for capital appreciation or depreciation is
less than that for fixed-rate obligations of the same maturity.

      Floating rate and variable rate obligations that have a stated maturity in
excess of one year may have features that permit the holder to recover the
principal amount of the underlying security at specified intervals, generally not
exceeding one year and upon no more than 30 days' notice. Variable rate
obligations may have a demand feature that allows an Underlying Fund to tender
the obligation to the issuer or a third party at certain times. The tender may be
at par value plus accrued interest, according to the terms of the obligations.
Floating rate notes may also have a feature that allows the holder to receive
payment prior to maturity. The issuer of a "demand" obligation normally has a
corresponding right to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the note plus
accrued interest after a given period. The issuer usually must provide a
specified number of days' notice to the holder.

      The floating rate and variable rate obligations in which an Underlying Fund
may invest generally must meet the credit quality requirements of that fund. The
Manager may determine that an unrated floating rate or variable rate obligation
meets an Underlying Fund's quality standards by reason of being backed by a
letter of credit or guarantee issued by a bank that meets those quality standards.

      |X|   Zero Coupon Securities. An Underlying Fund may buy zero-coupon,
delayed interest and "stripped" securities. Stripped securities are debt
securities whose interest coupons are separated from the security and sold
separately. An Underlying Fund can buy different types of zero-coupon or stripped
securities, including, among others, foreign debt securities and U.S. Treasury
notes or bonds that have been stripped of their interest coupons, U.S. Treasury
bills issued without interest coupons, and certificates representing interests in
stripped securities.

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

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

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

      |X|   Lower-Grade Debt Securities. "Lower-grade" debt securities are those
rated below "investment grade," which means they have a rating lower than "Baa"
by Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") or lower than "BBB" by Standard & Poor's
Rating Services ("S&P") or Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch"), or similar ratings by other
rating organizations. If they are unrated, and are determined by an Underlying
Fund's manager to be of comparable quality to debt securities rated below
investment grade, they are considered part of the Underlying Fund's portfolio of
lower-grade securities. International Bond Fund and Global Opportunities Fund can
invest in securities rated as low as "C" or "D" or which may be in default at the
time of purchase. A description of the debt security ratings categories of the
principal rating organizations is included in Appendix A to this Statement of
Additional Information.

      Because lower-grade debt securities tend to offer higher yields than
investment-grade securities, an Underlying Fund might invest in lower-grade
securities if its manager is trying to achieve higher income. For specific
limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments in lower-grade debt securities,
refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

      |X|   Bank Obligations and Securities That Are Secured By Them. Some of the
Underlying Funds can invest in bank obligations, including time deposits,
certificates of deposit, and bankers' acceptances. They must be either
obligations of a domestic bank with total assets of at least $1 billion or
obligations of a foreign bank with total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion.
Those Underlying Funds may also invest in instruments secured by bank obligations
(for example, debt which is guaranteed by the bank). For purposes of this policy,
the term "bank" includes commercial banks, savings banks, and savings and loan
associations that may or may not be members of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation.

      Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits in a bank for a specified period
of time at a stated interest rate. They may or may not be subject to withdrawal
penalties. However, time deposits that are subject to withdrawal penalties, other
than those maturing in seven days or less, are subject to the limitation on
investments by the Underlying Funds in illiquid investments.

      Bankers' acceptances are marketable short-term credit instruments used to
finance the import, export, transfer or storage of goods. They are deemed
"accepted" when a bank guarantees their payment at maturity.

      |X|   Loan Participation Interests. Some of the Underlying Funds can invest
in participation interests, subject to the Underlying Funds' limitations on
investments in illiquid investments. A participation interest is an undivided
interest in a loan made by the issuing financial institution in the proportion
that the buyer's participation interest bears to the total principal amount of
the loan. The issuing financial institution may have no obligation to an
Underlying Fund other than to pay the Underlying Fund the proportionate amount of
the principal and interest payments it receives. For specific limitations on the
Underlying Funds' investments in participation interests, refer to the Statement
of Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

      Participation interests are primarily dependent upon the creditworthiness
of the borrowing corporation, which is obligated to make payments of principal
and interest on the loan. There is a risk that a borrower may have difficulty
making payments. If a borrower fails to pay scheduled interest or principal
payments, an Underlying Fund could experience a reduction in its income. The
value of that participation interest might also decline, which could affect the
net asset value of an Underlying Fund's shares. If the issuing financial
institution fails to perform its obligations under the participation agreement,
an Underlying Fund might incur costs and delays in realizing payment and suffer a
loss of principal and/or interest.

      |X|   Master Demand Notes. Master demand notes are corporate obligations
that permit the investment of fluctuating amounts by some Underlying Funds at
varying rates of interest under direct arrangements between an Underlying Fund,
as lender, and the borrower. They permit daily changes in the amounts borrowed.
An Underlying Fund has the right to increase the amount under the note at any
time up to the full amount provided by the note agreement, or to decrease the
amount. The borrower may prepay up to the full amount of the note without
penalty. These notes may or may not be backed by bank letters of credit.

      Because these notes are direct lending arrangements between the lender and
borrower, it is not expected that there will be a trading market for them. There
is no secondary market for these notes, although they are redeemable (and thus
are immediately repayable by the borrower) at principal amount, plus accrued
interest, at any time. Accordingly, an Underlying Fund's right to redeem such
notes is dependent upon the ability of the borrower to pay principal and interest
on demand. For specific limitations on an Underlying Fund's investments in these
notes, refer to the Underlying Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

      The Underlying Funds may have no limitations on the type of issuer from
whom these notes will be purchased. However, in connection with such purchases
and on an ongoing basis, the Manager will consider the earning power, cash flow
and other liquidity ratios of the issuer, and its ability to pay principal and
interest on demand, including a situation in which all holders of such notes made
demand simultaneously. Investments in master demand notes may be subject to the
limitation on investments by an Underlying Fund in illiquid securities, described
in the Underlying Fund's prospectus and SAI.

      |X|   Foreign Debt Obligations. Some of the Underlying Funds can invest in
obligations issued by foreign governments and private foreign issuers.

      ?  Foreign Sovereign Debt Obligations. The debt obligations of a foreign
      government and its agencies and instrumentalities may or may not be
      supported by the full faith and credit of the foreign government.

      Some of the Underlying Funds also can buy securities issued by certain
      "supra-national" entities, which include entities designated or supported by
      various governments to promote economic reconstruction or development,
      international banking organizations and related government agencies.
      Examples are the International Bank for Reconstruction 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.

      ?  Brady Bonds. Some of the Underlying Funds can invest in U.S.
      dollar-denominated "Brady Bonds." These foreign debt obligations may be
      fixed-rate par bonds or floating-rate discount bonds. They are generally
      collateralized in full as to repayment of principal at maturity by U.S.
      Treasury zero-coupon obligations that have the same maturity as the Brady
      Bonds. Brady Bonds can be viewed as having three or four valuation
      components: (i) the collateralized repayment of principal at final
      maturity; (ii) the collateralized interest payments; (iii) the
      uncollateralized interest payments; and (iv) any uncollateralized repayment
      of principal at maturity. Those uncollateralized amounts constitute what is
      called the "residual risk."

      If there is a default on collateralized Brady Bonds resulting in
      acceleration of the payment obligations of the issuer, the zero-coupon U.S.
      Treasury securities held as collateral for the payment of principal will
      not be distributed to investors, nor will those obligations be sold to
      distribute the proceeds. The collateral will be held by the collateral
      agent to the scheduled maturity of the defaulted Brady Bonds. The defaulted
      bonds will continue to remain outstanding, and the face amount of the
      collateral will equal the principal payments which would have then been due
      on the Brady Bonds in the normal course. Because of the residual risk of
      Brady Bonds and the history of defaults with respect to commercial bank
      loans by public and private entities of countries issuing Brady Bonds,
      Brady Bonds are considered speculative investments.

      |X|   U.S. Government Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds may invest
in U.S. government securities. These are securities issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. Treasury or other U.S. government agencies or federally-chartered corporate
entities referred to as "instrumentalities." The obligations of U.S. government
agencies or instrumentalities in which the Underlying Funds can invest may or may
not be guaranteed or supported by the "full faith and credit" of the United
States. "Full faith and credit" means generally that the taxing power of the U.S.
government is pledged to the payment of interest and repayment of principal on a
security. If a security is not backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States, the owner of the security must look principally to the agency issuing the
obligation for repayment. The owner might not be able to assert a claim against
the United States if the issuing agency or instrumentality does not meet its
commitment.

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

      ?  Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
      Instrumentalities. These include direct obligations and mortgage-related
      securities that have different levels of credit support from the
      government. Some are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
      government, such as Government National Mortgage Association pass-through
      mortgage certificates (called "Ginnie Maes"). Some are supported by the
      right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury under certain
      circumstances, such as Federal National Mortgage Association bonds and
      Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation obligations.

      |X|   Mortgage-Related Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds can invest
in mortgage-related securities. Mortgage-related securities are a form of
derivative investment collateralized by pools of commercial or residential
mortgages. Pools of mortgage loans are assembled as securities for sale to
investors by government agencies or entities or by private issuers. These
securities include collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), mortgage
pass-through securities, stripped mortgage pass-through securities, interests in
real estate mortgage investment conduits ("REMICs") and other real estate-related
securities.

      Mortgage-related securities that are issued or guaranteed by agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. government have relatively little credit risk
(depending on the nature of the issuer) but are subject to interest rate risks
and prepayment risks, as described in the Prospectus.

      As with other debt securities, the prices of mortgage-related securities
tend to move inversely to changes in interest rates. Some of the Underlying Funds
can buy mortgage-related securities that have interest rates that move inversely
to changes in general interest rates, based on a multiple of a specific index.
Although the value of a mortgage-related security may decline when interest rates
rise, the converse is not always the case.

      ?  Collateralized Mortgage Obligations. Collateralized mortgage obligations
      or CMOs, are multi-class bonds that are backed by pools of mortgage loans
      or mortgage pass-through certificates. They may be collateralized by:

o     pass-through certificates issued or guaranteed by Government National
               Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal National Mortgage Association
               (FNMA), or Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC),
o     unsecuritized mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration
               or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans' Affairs,
o     unsecuritized conventional mortgages,
o     other mortgage-related securities, or
o     any combination of these.

      Each class of CMO, referred to as a "tranche," is issued at a specific
      coupon rate and has a stated maturity or final distribution date. Principal
      prepayments on the underlying mortgages may cause the CMO to be retired
      much earlier than the stated maturity or final distribution date. The
      principal and interest on the underlying mortgages may be allocated among
      the several classes of a series of a CMO in different ways. One or more
      tranches may have coupon rates that reset periodically at a specified
      increase over an index. These are floating rate CMOs, and typically have a
      cap on the coupon rate. Inverse floating rate CMOs have a coupon rate that
      moves in the reverse direction to an applicable index. The coupon rate on
      these CMOs will increase as general interest rates decrease. These are
      usually much more volatile than fixed rate CMOs or floating rate CMOs.

      ?  Forward Rolls. Some of the Underlying Funds can enter into "forward
      roll" transactions with respect to mortgage-related securities. In this type
      of transaction, an Underlying Fund sells a mortgage-related security to a
      buyer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (the same
      type of security, and having the same coupon and maturity) at a later date
      at a set price. The securities that are repurchased will have the same
      interest rate as the securities that are sold, but typically will be
      collateralized by different pools of mortgages (with different prepayment
      histories) than the securities that have been sold. Proceeds from the sale
      are invested in short-term instruments, such as repurchase agreements. The
      income from those investments, plus the fees from the forward roll
      transaction, are expected to generate income to an Underlying Fund in
      excess of the yield on the securities that have been sold.

      An Underlying Fund will only enter into "covered" rolls. To assure its
      future payment of the purchase price, the Underlying Funds will identify on
      its books liquid assets in an amount equal to the payment obligation under
      the roll.

      These transactions have risks. During the period between the sale and the
      repurchase, Underlying Funds will not be entitled to receive interest and
      principal payments on the securities that have been sold. It is possible
      that the market value of the securities an Underlying Fund sells might
      decline below the price at which the Underlying Funds are obligated to
      repurchase securities.

      ?  "Stripped" Mortgage Related Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds may
      invest in stripped mortgage-related securities that are created by
      segregating the cash flows from underlying mortgage loans or mortgage
      securities to create two or more new securities. Each has a specified
      percentage of the underlying security's principal or interest payments.
      These are a form of derivative investment.

      Mortgage securities may be partially stripped so that each class receives
      some interest and some principal. However, they may be completely stripped.
      In that case all of the interest is distributed to holders of one type of
      security, known as an "interest-only" security, or "I/O," and all of the
      principal is distributed to holders of another type of security, known as a
      "principal-only" security or "P/O." Strips can be created for pass through
      certificates or CMOs.

      The yields to maturity of I/Os and P/Os are very sensitive to principal
      repayments (including prepayments) on the underlying mortgages. If the
      underlying mortgages experience greater than anticipated prepayments of
      principal, the Underlying Fund might not fully recoup its investment in an
      I/O based on those assets. If underlying mortgages experience less than
      anticipated prepayments of principal, the yield on the P/Os based on them
      could decline substantially. The market for some of these securities may be
      limited, making it difficult for an Underlying Fund to dispose of its
      holdings at an acceptable price.

      ?  Mortgage-Related U.S. Government Securities. These include interests in
      pools of residential or commercial mortgages, in the form of collateralized
      mortgage obligations and other "pass-through" mortgage securities. CMOs
      that are U.S. government securities have collateral to secure payment of
      interest and principal. They may be issued in different series with
      different interest rates and maturities. The collateral is either in the
      form of mortgage pass-through certificates issued or guaranteed by a U.S.
      agency or instrumentality or mortgage loans insured by a U.S. government
      agency. For specific limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments in
      mortgage-related U.S. government securities, refer to the Statement of
      Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

      The prices and yields of CMOs are determined, in part, by assumptions about
      the cash flows from the rate of payments of the underlying mortgages.
      Changes in interest rates may cause the rate of expected prepayments of
      those mortgages to change. In general, prepayments increase when general
      interest rates fall and decrease when interest rates rise.

      If prepayments of mortgages underlying a CMO occur faster than expected
      when interest rates fall, the market value and yield of the CMO will be
      reduced. Additionally, an Underlying Fund may have to reinvest the
      prepayment proceeds in other securities paying interest at lower rates,
      which could reduce that Underlying Funds' yield.

      When interest rates rise rapidly, if prepayments occur more slowly than
      expected, a short- or medium-term CMO can in effect become a long-term
      security, subject to greater fluctuations in value. These are the
      prepayment risks described above and can make the prices of CMOs very
      volatile when interest rates change. The prices of longer-term debt
      securities tend to fluctuate more than those of shorter-term debt
      securities. That volatility will affect the Underlying Funds' share prices.

      ?  GNMA Certificates (Ginnie Mae). The GNMA is a wholly-owned corporate
         instrumentality of the United States within the U.S. Department of
         Housing and Urban Development. GNMA's principal programs involve its
         guarantees of privately-issued securities backed by pools of mortgages.
         Ginnie Maes are debt securities representing an interest in one or a
         pool of mortgages that are insured by the Federal Housing Administration
         or the Farmers Home Administration or guaranteed by the Veterans
         Administration.

         The Ginnie Maes in which some of the Underlying Funds invest are of the
         "fully modified pass-through" type. They provide that the registered
         holders of the Certificates will receive timely monthly payments of the
         pro-rata share of the scheduled principal payments on the underlying
         mortgages, whether or not those amounts are collected by the issuers.
         Amounts paid include, on a pro rata basis, any prepayment of principal
         of such mortgages and interest (net of servicing and other charges) on
         the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Ginnie Maes, whether or
         not the interest on the underlying mortgages has been collected by the
         issuers.

         The Ginnie Maes purchased by the Underlying Funds are guaranteed as to
         timely payment of principal and interest by GNMA. In giving that
         guaranty, GNMA expects that payments received by the issuers of Ginnie
         Maes on account of the mortgages backing the Certificates will be
         sufficient to make the required payments of principal of and interest on
         those Ginnie Maes. However, if those payments are insufficient, the
         guaranty agreements between the issuers of the Ginnie Maes and GNMA
         require the issuers to make advances sufficient for the payments. If the
         issuers fail to make those payments, GNMA will do so.

         Under federal law, the full faith and credit of the United States is
         pledged to the payment of all amounts that may be required to be paid
         under any guaranty issued by GNMA as to such mortgage pools. An opinion
         of an Assistant Attorney General of the United States, dated December 9,
         1969, states that such guaranties "constitute general obligations of the
         United States backed by its full faith and credit." GNMA is empowered to
         borrow from the United States Treasury to the extent necessary to make
         any payments of principal and interest required under those guaranties.

         Ginnie Maes are backed by the aggregate indebtedness secured by the
         underlying FHA-insured, FMHA-insured or VA-guaranteed mortgages. Except
         to the extent of payments received by the issuers on account of such
         mortgages, Ginnie Maes do not constitute a liability of those issuers,
         nor do they evidence any recourse against those issuers. Recourse is
         solely against GNMA. Holders of Ginnie Maes (such as the Underlying
         Funds) have no security interest in or lien on the underlying mortgages.

         Monthly payments of principal will be made, and additional prepayments
         of principal may be made, to the Underlying Funds with respect to the
         mortgages underlying the Ginnie Maes held by the Underlying Funds. All
         of the mortgages in the pools relating to the Ginnie Maes in the
         Underlying Funds are subject to prepayment without any significant
         premium or penalty, at the option of the mortgagors. While the mortgages
         on 1-to-4-family dwellings underlying certain Ginnie Maes have a stated
         maturity of up to thirty (30) years, it has been the experience of the
         mortgage industry that the average life of comparable mortgages, as a
         result of prepayments, refinancing and payments from foreclosures, is
         considerably less.

      ?  FNMA Certificates ("Fannie Mae"). FNMA, a federally-chartered and
         privately-owned corporation, issues FNMA Certificates which are backed
         by a pool of mortgage loans. FNMA guarantees to each registered holder
         of a FNMA Certificate that the holder will receive amounts representing
         the holder's proportionate interest in scheduled principal and interest
         payments, and any principal prepayments, on the mortgage loans in the
         pool represented by such Certificate, less servicing and guarantee fees,
         and the holder's proportionate interest in the full principal amount of
         any foreclosed or other liquidated mortgage loan. In each case the
         guarantee applies whether or not those amounts are actually received.
         The obligations of FNMA under its guarantees are obligations solely of
         FNMA and are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United
         States or any of its agencies or instrumentalities other than FNMA.

      ?  FHLMC Certificates. FHLMC, a corporate instrumentality of the United
         States, issues FHLMC Certificates representing interests in mortgage
         loans. FHLMC guarantees to each registered holder of a FHLMC Certificate
         timely payment of the amounts representing a holder's proportionate
         share of:

o     interest payments less servicing and guarantee fees,
o     principal prepayments, and
o     the ultimate collection of amounts representing the holder's proportionate
               interest in principal payments on the mortgage loans in the pool
               represented by the FHLMC Certificate, in each case whether or not
               such amounts are actually received.

         The obligations of FHLMC under its guarantees are obligations solely of
         FHLMC and are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United
         States.

      ?  Commercial (Privately-Issued) Mortgage Related Securities. Some of the
      Underlying Funds can invest in commercial mortgage-related securities
      issued by private entities. Generally these are multi-class debt or
      pass-through certificates secured by mortgage loans on commercial
      properties. They are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. These
      securities typically are structured to provide protection to investors in
      senior classes from possible losses on the underlying loans. They do so by
      having holders of subordinated classes take the first loss if there are
      defaults on the underlying loans. They may also be protected to some extent
      by guarantees, reserve funds or additional collateralization mechanisms.

      |X|   Asset-Backed Securities. Some of the Underlying Funds may invest in
asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are fractional interests in
pools of assets, typically accounts receivable or consumer loans. They are issued
by trusts or special-purpose corporations. These securities are subject to
prepayment risks and the risk of default by the issuer as well as by the
borrowers of the underlying loans in the pool. They are similar to
mortgage-related securities, described above, and are backed by a pool of assets
that consist of obligations of individual borrowers. The income from the pool is
passed through to the holders of participation interest in the pools. The pools
may offer a credit enhancement, such as a bank letter of credit, to try to reduce
the risks that the underlying debtors will not pay their obligations when due.
However, the enhancement, if any, might not be for the full par value of the
security. If the enhancement is exhausted and any required payments of interest
or repayments of principal are not made, an Underlying Fund could suffer losses
on its investment or delays in receiving payment.

      The value of an asset-backed security is affected by changes in the
market's perception of the asset backing the security, the creditworthiness of the
servicing agent for the loan pool, the originator of the loans, or the financial
institution providing any credit enhancement, and is also affected if any credit
enhancement has been exhausted. The risks of investing in asset-backed securities
are ultimately related to payment of consumer loans by the individual borrowers.
As a purchaser of an asset-backed security, an Underlying Fund would generally
have no recourse to the entity that originated the loans in the event of default
by a borrower. The underlying loans are subject to prepayments, which may shorten
the weighted average life of asset-backed securities and may lower their return,
in the same manner as in the case of mortgage-backed securities and CMOs.

      |X|   Money Market and Other Short-Term Debt Obligations.  Some of the
Underlying Funds can invest in a variety of high quality money market instruments
and other short-term debt obligations, under both normal market conditions and
for defensive purposes. Money market securities are high-quality, short-term debt
instruments that are issued by the U.S. government, corporations, banks or other
entities. They may have fixed, variable or floating interest rates. The following
is a brief description of the types of money market securities and short-term
debt obligations the Underlying Funds can invest in.

      ?  Bank Obligations. Some of the Underlying Funds can buy time deposits,
      certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances. They must be:

o     obligations issued or guaranteed by a domestic bank or foreign bank
               (including a foreign branch of a domestic bank) having total
               assets of at least U.S. $1 billion,
o     banker's acceptances (which may or may not be supported by letters of
               credit) only if guaranteed by a U.S. commercial bank with total
               assets of at least U.S. $1 billion.

      Some of the Underlying Funds can make time deposits. These are
      non-negotiable deposits in a bank for a specified period of time. They may
      be subject to early withdrawal penalties. Time deposits that are subject to
      early withdrawal penalties are subject to an Underlying Fund's limits on
      illiquid investments. "Banks" include commercial banks, savings banks and
      savings and loan associations.

      ?  Commercial Paper. Some of the Underlying Funds can invest in commercial
      paper if it is rated within the top three rating categories of S&P and
      Moody's or other rating organizations. If the paper is not rated, it may be
      purchased if the Underlying Funds' manager determines that it is comparable
      to rated commercial paper in the top three rating categories of national
      rating organizations.

      Some of the Underlying Funds can buy commercial paper that is not in the
      top three rating categories (including U.S. dollar-denominated securities
      of foreign branches of U.S. banks) if the commercial paper is guaranteed as
      to principal and interest by a bank, government or corporation whose
      certificates of deposit or commercial paper may otherwise be purchased by
      an Underlying Fund.



Main Risks of Debt Securities

      In general, debt securities are subject to two primary types of risk:
credit risk and interest rate risk. The values of debt securities may be affected
by changes in the market's perception of the likely direction of interest rates
and/or the creditworthiness of the entity issuing or guaranteeing a security.
Their values may also be affected by changes in government regulations and tax
policies.

      |X|   Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet
interest or principal payments or both as they become due. In general,
lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent
than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.

      Some of the Underlying Funds' investments are investment-grade debt
securities and U.S. government securities. U.S. government securities, although
unrated, are generally considered to be equivalent to securities in the highest
rating categories. Investment-grade bonds are bonds that are rated at least "Baa"
by Moody's, or at least "BBB" by S&P and Fitch, or have comparable ratings by
another nationally-recognized rating organization.

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

      Some of the Underlying Funds also buy non-investment-grade debt securities
(commonly referred to as "junk bonds"). "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 S&P or Fitch or similar ratings by other
nationally recognized rating organizations. If they are unrated, and are
determined by an Underlying Fund's manager to be of comparable quality to debt
securities rated below investment grade, they are included in the limitation on
the percentage of the Underlying Fund's assets that can be invested in
lower-grade securities.

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

      Fluctuations in the market value of debt securities after an Underlying
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 an Underlying Fund's net asset values will be
affected by those fluctuations.

      |X|   Special Risks of Lower-Grade Debt Securities. Because lower-grade
debt securities tend to offer higher yields than investment-grade securities, an
Underlying Fund might invest in lower-grade securities if its manager is trying
to achieve higher income. For specific limitations on Underlying Funds'
investments in lower-grade debt securities, refer to the Statement of Additional
Information for each Underlying Fund.

      "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
S&P or Fitch, or similar ratings by other rating organizations. If they are
unrated, and are determined by an Underlying Fund's manager to be of comparable
quality to debt securities rated below investment grade, they are considered part
of the Underlying Fund's portfolio of lower-grade securities. International Bond
and Global Opportunities can invest in securities rated as low as "C" or "D" or
which may be in default at the time such Underlying Fund buys them.

      Some of the special credit risks of lower-grade securities include the
following: 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.

      To the extent they can be converted into stock, convertible securities may
be less subject to some of the risks of volatility than non-convertible high
yield bonds, since stock may be more liquid and less affected by some of these
risk factors.

      |X|   Mortgage Prepayment and Extension Risks.  In periods of declining
interest rates, mortgages are more likely to be prepaid. As a result, a
mortgage-related security's maturity can be shortened by unscheduled prepayments
on the underlying mortgages. Therefore, it is not possible to predict accurately
the security's yield. The principal that is returned earlier than expected may
have to be reinvested in other investments having a lower yield than the prepaid
security. Therefore, these securities may be less effective as a means of
"locking in" attractive long-term interest rates, and they may have less potential
for appreciation during periods of declining interest rates, than conventional
bonds with comparable stated maturities.

      Prepayment risks can lead to substantial fluctuations in the value of a
mortgage-related security. In turn, this can affect the value of the Underlying
Funds' shares. If a mortgage-related security has been purchased at a premium,
all or part of the premium an Underlying Fund paid may be lost if there is a
decline in the market value of the security, whether that results from interest
rate changes or prepayments on the underlying mortgages. In the case of stripped
mortgage-related securities, if they experience greater rates of prepayment than
were anticipated, an Underlying Fund may fail to recoup its initial investment on
the security.

      During periods of rapidly rising interest rates, prepayments of
mortgage-related securities may occur at slower than expected rates. Slower
prepayments effectively may lengthen a mortgage-related security's expected
maturity. Generally, that would cause the value of the security to fluctuate more
widely in response to changes in interest rates. If the prepayments on the
Underlying Funds' mortgage-related securities were to decrease broadly, the
Underlying Funds' effective duration and therefore its sensitivity to interest
rates, would increase.



Derivative Securities

      Many Underlying Funds can invest in a variety of derivative investments to
seek income, to seek income for liquidity needs or for hedging purposes. Some
derivative investments the Underlying Funds can use are the hedging instruments
described below in this Statement of Additional Information. Segregated accounts
will be maintained for all derivative transactions, to the extent required by the
Investment Company Act. For specific limitations, if any, on the Underlying
Funds' investments in derivatives, refer to the Statement of Additional
Information for each Underlying Fund.

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

      Other derivative investments some of the Underlying Funds 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
Underlying Funds' manager expected.

      |X|   Using Derivatives for Hedging. Many Underlying Funds can use
derivative instruments for hedging, even if they do not use them in seeking their
objectives, to attempt to protect against declines in the market value of the
Underlying Funds' portfolios, to permit the Underlying Fund to retain unrealized
gains in the value of portfolio securities which have appreciated, or to
facilitate selling securities for investment reasons, those Underlying Funds
could:
o     sell futures contracts,
o     buy puts on futures or on securities, or
o     write covered calls on securities or futures. Covered calls may also be
               used to increase certain Underlying Funds' income.

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

o     buy futures, or
o     buy calls on futures or on securities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      An Underlying Fund may 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 an Underlying
Fund does so the market might decline. If an Underlying Fund then concludes not
to invest in securities because of concerns that the market might decline further
or for other reasons, the Underlying Fund will realize a loss on the hedging
instruments that is not offset by a reduction in the price of the securities
purchased.

      |X|   Futures Contracts. Some of the Underlying Funds can buy and sell
futures contracts that relate to (1) broadly-based bond or other security indices
(these are referred to as "financial futures"); (2) commodity contracts (these
are referred to as "commodity futures"); (3) debt securities (these are referred
to as "interest rate futures"); (4) foreign currencies (these are referred to as
"forward contracts"); (5) individual stock (these are referred to as "single stock
futures"); (6) bond indices (these are referred to as "bond index futures"); and
(7) broadly-based stock indices (these are referred to as "stock index futures").
For specific information on the permitted type of futures contract for an
Underlying Fund, refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each
Underlying Fund.

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

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

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

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

      At any time prior to expiration of the future, an Underlying 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 Underlying Funds. Any loss or gain on the future is then
realized by the Underlying Funds for tax purposes. All futures transactions,
except forward contracts, are effected through a clearinghouse associated with
the exchange on which the contracts are traded.

      |X|   Options. Some Underlying Funds can buy and sell certain kinds of put
options ("puts") and call options ("calls"). The Underlying Funds can buy and
sell exchange-traded and over-the-counter put and call options, including index
options, securities options, currency options, commodities options, and options
on the other types of futures described in this Statement of Additional
Information.

      ?  Writing (Selling) Covered Call Options. Some Underlying Funds can write
         (that is, sell) covered calls. If an Underlying Fund sells a call
         option, it must be covered. That means the Underlying Fund must own the
         security subject to the call while the call is outstanding, or, for
         calls on futures and indices, the call may be covered by identifying
         liquid assets to enable the Underlying Fund to satisfy its obligations
         if the call is exercised. For specific limitations on the Underlying
         Funds' investments in covered calls, refer to the Statement of
         Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

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

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

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

         When the Underlying Fund writes an over-the-counter ("OTC") option, it
         will enter into an arrangement with a primary U.S. government securities
         dealer which will establish a formula price at which the Underlying Fund
         will have the absolute right to repurchase that OTC option. The formula
         price will generally be based on a multiple of the premium received for
         the option, plus the amount by which the option is exercisable below the
         market price of the underlying security (that is, the option is "in the
         money"). When the Underlying Fund writes an OTC option, it will treat as
         illiquid (for purposes of its restriction on holding illiquid
         securities) the mark-to-market value of any OTC option it holds, unless
         the option is subject to a buy-back agreement by the executing broker.

         To terminate its obligation on a call it has written, the Underlying
         Fund may purchase a corresponding call in a "closing purchase
         transaction." The Underlying Fund will then realize a profit or loss,
         depending upon whether the net of the amount of the option transaction
         costs and the premium received on the call the Underlying Fund wrote is
         more or less than the price of the call the Underlying Fund purchases to
         close out the transaction. The Underlying Fund may realize a profit if
         the call expires unexercised, because the Underlying Fund will retain
         the underlying security and the premium it received when it wrote the
         call. Any such profits are considered short-term capital gains for
         federal income tax purposes. When distributed by the Underlying Fund
         they are taxable as ordinary income. If the Underlying Fund cannot
         effect a closing purchase transaction due to the lack of a market, it
         will have to hold the callable securities until the call expires or is
         exercised.

         The Underlying Fund 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 Underlying Fund
         must cover the call by identifying on it books an equivalent dollar
         amount of liquid assets. The Underlying Fund will identify additional
         liquid assets on its books to cover the call if the value of the
         identified assets drops below 100% of the current value of the future.
         Because of this asset coverage requirement, in no circumstances would
         the Underlying Fund's receipt of an exercise notice as to that future
         require the Underlying Fund to deliver a futures contract. It would
         simply put the Underlying Fund in a short futures position, which is
         permitted by the Underlying Fund's hedging policies.

      ?  Writing Put Options.  Some Underlying Funds can sell put options on
         securities, broadly-based securities indices, foreign currencies and
         futures. 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. For specific limitations on
         the Underlying Funds' investments in put options, refer to the Statement
         of Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

         If an Underlying Fund writes a put, the put must be covered by liquid
         assets identified on the Underlying Fund's books. The premium the
         Underlying Fund receives from writing a put represents a profit, as long
         as the price of the underlying investment remains equal to or above the
         exercise price of the put. However, the Underlying Fund also assumes the
         obligation during the option period to buy the underlying investment
         from the buyer of the put at the exercise price, even if the value of
         the investment falls below the exercise price.

         If a put an Underlying Fund has written expires unexercised, the
         Underlying Fund realizes a gain in the amount of the premium less the
         transaction costs incurred. If the put is exercised, the Underlying Fund
         must fulfill its obligation to purchase the underlying investment at the
         exercise price. That price will usually exceed the market value of the
         investment at that time. In that case, the Underlying Fund may incur a
         loss if it sells the underlying investment. That loss will be equal to
         the sum of the sale price of the underlying investment and the premium
         received minus the sum of the exercise price and any transaction costs
         the Underlying Fund incurred.

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

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

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

      ?  Purchasing Puts and Calls.  Some Underlying Funds can buy puts on
         securities, broadly-based securities indices, foreign currencies and
         futures, whether or not they own the underlying investment. Convertible
         securities funds may buy only those puts that relate to stocks including
         stocks underlying the convertible securities that the Underlying Fund
         owns. When an Underlying Fund purchases a put, it pays a premium and,
         except as to puts on indices, has the right to sell the underlying
         investment to a seller of a put on a corresponding investment during the
         put period at a fixed exercise price.

         Buying a put on securities or futures an Underlying Fund owns enables
         the Underlying Fund to attempt to protect itself during the put period
         against a decline in the value of the underlying investment below the
         exercise price by selling the underlying investment at the exercise
         price to a seller of a corresponding put. If the market price of the
         underlying investment is equal to or above the exercise price and, as a
         result, the put is not exercised or resold, the put will become
         worthless at its expiration date. In that case the Underlying Fund will
         have paid the premium but lost the right to sell the underlying
         investment. However, the Underlying Fund 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 Underlying Fund does not own (such as
         an index or future) permits the Underlying 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.

         Some of the Underlying Fund can purchase calls on securities,
         broadly-based securities indices, foreign currencies and futures. They
         may do so to protect against the possibility that an Underlying Fund's
         portfolio will not participate in an anticipated rise in the securities
         market. When an Underlying Fund buys a call (other than in a closing
         purchase transaction), it pays a premium. The Underlying Fund then has
         the right to buy the underlying investment from a seller of a
         corresponding call on the same investment during the call period at a
         fixed exercise price. For specific limitations on the Underlying Fund's
         investments in calls and puts, refer to the Statement of Additional
         Information for each Underlying Fund.

         An Underlying Fund benefits only if it sells the call at a profit or if,
         during the call period, the market price of the underlying investment is
         above the sum of the call price plus the transaction costs and the
         premium paid for the call and the Underlying Fund exercises the call. If
         the Underlying Fund does not exercise the call or sell it (whether or
         not at a profit), the call will become worthless at its expiration date.
         In that case the Underlying Fund will have paid the premium but lost the
         right to purchase the underlying investment.

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

      ?  Buying and Selling Options on Foreign Currencies.  Some of the
         Underlying Funds 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. An Underlying Fund could use these
         calls and puts to try to protect against declines in the dollar value of
         foreign securities and increases in the dollar cost of foreign
         securities the Underlying Fund wants to acquire.

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

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

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

      |X|   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. An Underlying Fund may use them to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price
of a security denominated in a foreign currency that an Underlying Fund has
bought or sold, or to protect against possible losses from changes in the
relative values of the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency. An Underlying Fund may
also use "cross-hedging" where an Underlying Fund hedges against changes in
currencies other than the currency in which a security it holds is denominated.

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

      An Underlying 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 an
Underlying Fund owns or intends to acquire, but it does fix a rate of exchange in
advance. Although forward contracts may reduce the risk of loss from a decline in
the value of the hedged currency, at the same time they limit any potential gain
if the value of the hedged currency increases.

      When an Underlying Fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale of
a security denominated in a foreign currency, or when it anticipates receiving
dividend payments in a foreign currency, the Underlying Fund might desire to
"lock-in" the U.S. dollar price of the security or the U.S. dollar equivalent of
the dividend payments. To do so, the Underlying Fund 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 Underlying Fund against a loss from an adverse change in the
currency exchange rates during the period between the date on which the security
is purchased or sold or on which the payment is declared, and the date on which
the payments are made or received.

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

      An Underlying 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 Underlying Fund's commitment under forward contracts. An Underlying Fund will
not enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure to such contracts if
the consummation of the contracts would obligate the Underlying Fund to deliver
an amount of foreign currency in excess of the value of the Underlying Fund's
portfolio securities or other assets denominated in that currency or another
currency that is the subject of the hedge.

      However, to avoid excess transactions and transaction costs, an Underlying
Fund may maintain a net exposure to forward contracts in excess of the value of
the Underlying Fund's portfolio securities or other assets denominated in foreign
currencies if the excess amount is "covered" by liquid securities denominated in
any currency. The cover must be at least equal at all times to the amount of that
excess. As one alternative, an Underlying Fund may purchase a call option
permitting the Underlying Fund to purchase the amount of foreign currency being
hedged by a forward sale contract at a price no higher than the forward contract
price. As another alternative, an Underlying Fund may purchase a put option
permitting the Underlying Fund to sell the amount of foreign currency subject to
a forward purchase contract at a price as high or higher than the forward
contract 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 Underlying Fund's manager might
decide to sell the security and deliver foreign currency to settle the original
purchase obligation. If the market value of the security is less than the amount
of foreign currency an Underlying Fund is obligated to deliver, the Underlying
Fund might have to purchase additional foreign currency on the "spot" (that is,
cash) market to settle the security trade. If the market value of the security
instead exceeds the amount of foreign currency an Underlying Fund is obligated to
deliver to settle the trade, the Underlying Fund might have to sell on the spot
market some of the foreign currency received upon the sale of the security. There
will be additional transaction costs on the spot market in those cases.

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

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

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

      Although the Underlying Funds value their assets daily in terms of U.S.
dollars, they do not intend to convert their holdings of foreign currencies into
U.S. dollars on a daily basis. The Underlying Funds 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 Underlying Funds at
one rate, while offering a lesser rate of exchange if the Underlying Funds desire
to resell that currency to the dealer.

      |X|   Interest Rate Swap Transactions.  Some of the Underlying Funds can
enter into interest rate swap agreements. In an interest rate swap, an Underlying
Fund and another party exchange their right to receive or their obligation to pay
interest on a security. For example, they might swap the right to receive
floating rate payments for fixed rate payments. An Underlying Fund can enter into
swaps only on securities that it owns. The Underlying Fund will identify on its
books liquid assets (such as cash or U.S. government securities) to cover any
amounts it could owe under swaps that exceed the amounts it is entitled to
receive, and it will adjust that amount daily, as needed. For specific
limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments in interest rate swap
transactions, refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each
Underlying Fund.

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

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

      |X|   Total Return Swap Transactions.  Some of the Underlying Funds may
enter into total return swaps. For specific limitations on the Underlying Funds'
investments in total return swaps, refer to the Statement of Additional
Information for each Underlying Fund. 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 Underlying Funds may engage in swap transactions that
have more than one period and therefore more than one exchange of assets.

      The Underlying Funds may invest in total return swaps to gain exposure to
the overall commodity markets. In a total return commodity swap the Underlying
Funds 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 Underlying Funds 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 Underlying Funds will
pay an adjustable or floating fee. With a "floating" rate, the fee is pegged to a
base rate such as the LIBOR, and is adjusted each period. Therefore, if interest
rates increase over the term of the swap contract, the Underlying Funds may be
required to pay a higher fee at each swap reset date.

      |X|   Swaption Transactions.  Some of the Underlying Funds may enter into a
swaption transaction, which is a contract that grants the holder, in return for
payment of the purchase price (the "premium") of the option, the right, but not
the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap at a preset rate within a
specified period of time, with the writer of the contract. The writer of the
contract receives the premium and bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the
preset rate on the underlying interest rate swap. Unrealized gains/losses on
swaptions are reflected in investment assets and investment liabilities in the
Underlying Funds' statement of financial condition.

      |X|   Credit Derivatives.  Some of the Underlying Funds may enter into
credit default swaps, both directly ("unfunded swaps") and indirectly in the form
of a swap embedded within a structured note ("funded swaps"), to protect against
the risk that a security will default. Unfunded and funded credit default swaps
may be on a single security, or on a basket of securities. An Underlying Fund
pays a fee to enter into the swap and receives a fixed payment during the life of
the swap. An Underlying Fund may take a short position in the credit default swap
(also known as "buying credit protection"), or may take a long position in the
credit default swap note (also known as "selling credit protection").

      An Underlying Fund would take a short position in a credit default swap
(the "unfunded swap") against a long portfolio position to decrease exposure to
specific high yield issuers. If the short credit default swap is against a
corporate issue, the Underlying Fund must own that corporate issue. However, if
the short credit default swap is against sovereign debt, the Underlying Fund may
own either: (i) the reference obligation, (ii) any sovereign debt of that foreign
country, or (iii) sovereign debt of any country that its manager determines is
closely correlated as an inexact bona fide hedge.

      If an Underlying Fund takes a short position in the credit default swap, if
there is a credit event (including bankruptcy, failure to timely pay interest or
principal, or a restructuring), the Underlying Fund will deliver the defaulted
bonds and the swap counterparty will pay the par amount of the bonds. An
associated risk is adverse pricing when purchasing bonds to satisfy the delivery
obligation. If the swap is on a basket of securities, the notional amount of the
swap is reduced by the par amount of the defaulted bond, and the fixed payments
are then made on the reduced notional amount.

      Taking a long position in the credit default swap note (i.e., purchasing
the "funded swap") would increase the Underlying Fund's exposure to specific high
yield corporate issuers. The goal would be to increase liquidity in that market
sector via the swap note and its associated increase in the number of trading
instruments, the number and type of market participants, and market
capitalization.

      If an Underlying Fund takes a long position in the credit default swap
note, if there is a credit event the Underlying Fund will pay the par amount of
the bonds and the swap counterparty will deliver the bonds. If the swap is on a
basket of securities, the notional amount of the swap is reduced by the par
amount of the defaulted bond, and the fixed payments are then made on the reduced
notional amount.

      Other risks of credit default swaps include the cost of paying for credit
protection if there are no credit events, pricing transparency when assessing the
cost of a credit default swap, counterparty risk, and the need to fund the
delivery obligation (either cash or the defaulted bonds, depending on whether the
Underlying Fund is long or short the swap, respectively). For specific
limitations on the Underlying Fund's investments in credit derivatives, refer to
the Statement of Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

      |X|   "Structured" Notes.  Some of the Underlying Funds can buy
"structured" notes, which are specially-designed derivative debt investments with
principal payments or interest payments that are linked to the value of an index
(such as a currency or securities index) or commodity. The terms of the
instrument may be "structured" by the purchaser (the Underlying Fund) and the
borrower issuing the note.

      The principal and/or interest payments depend on the performance of one or
more other securities or indices, and the values of these notes will therefore
fall or rise in response to the changes in the values of the underlying security
or index. They are subject to both credit and interest rate risks and therefore
the Underlying Fund could receive more or less than it originally invested when
the notes mature, or it might receive less interest than the stated coupon
payment if the underlying investment or index does not perform as anticipated.
Their values may be very volatile and they may have a limited trading market,
making it difficult for the Underlying Fund to sell its investment at an
acceptable price.

      |X|   Regulatory Aspects of Certain Derivative 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 Underlying
Fund claims an exclusion from regulation as a commodity pool operator. The
Underlying Funds have claimed such an exclusion from registration as a commodity
pool operator under the Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Underlying Funds may
use futures and options for hedging and non-hedging purposes to the extent
consistent with their investment objective, internal risk management guidelines
adopted by the Underlying Funds' investment advisor (as they may be amended from
time to time), and as otherwise set forth in the Underlying Funds' prospectus or
this Statement of Additional Information.

      Transactions in options by the Underlying Funds are subject to limitations
established by the option exchanges. The exchanges limit the maximum number of
options that may be written or held by a single investor or group of investors
acting in concert. Those limits apply regardless of whether the options were
written or purchased on the same or different exchanges or are held in one or
more accounts or through one or more different exchanges or through one or more
brokers. Thus, the number of options that the Underlying Funds 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 Underlying Funds (or an
advisor that is an affiliate of the Underlying Funds' 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 an Underlying 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. The account must be a segregated account or accounts held by the Underlying
Fund.

      |X|   Tax Aspects of Certain Derivative Instruments.  Certain foreign
currency exchange contracts in which the Underlying Funds may invest are treated
as "Section 1256 contracts" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Internal Revenue Code"). In general, gains or losses relating to Section
1256 contracts are characterized as 60% long-term and 40% short-term capital
gains or losses under the Code. However, foreign currency gains or losses arising
from Section 1256 contracts that are forward contracts generally are treated as
ordinary income or loss. In addition, Section 1256 contracts held by the
Underlying Funds at the end of each taxable year are "marked-to-market," and
unrealized gains or losses are treated as though they were realized. These
contracts also may be marked-to-market for purposes of determining the excise tax
applicable to investment company distributions and for other purposes under rules
prescribed pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code. An election can be made by the
Underlying Funds to exempt those transactions from this marked-to-market
treatment.

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

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

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

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


Other Investments and Investment Strategies

In seeking their investment objectives, certain Underlying Funds may from time to
time use the types of investments and investment strategies described below. The
Underlying Funds are not required to use these strategies, and may not use any or
all of them.

      |X|   Repurchase Agreements.  Some of the Underlying Funds can acquire
securities subject to repurchase agreements. An Underlying Fund 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.

      In a repurchase transaction, an Underlying Fund buys a security from, and
simultaneously resells it to, an approved vendor for delivery on an agreed-upon
future date. The resale price exceeds the purchase price by an amount that
reflects an agreed-upon interest rate effective for the period during which the
repurchase agreement is in effect. Approved vendors include U.S. commercial
banks, U.S. branches of foreign banks, or broker-dealers that have been
designated as primary dealers in government securities. They must meet credit
requirements set by the Underlying Fund's 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 an
Underlying Fund's limits on holding illiquid investments. There is generally no
limit on the amount of the Underlying Funds' net assets that may be subject to
repurchase agreements having maturities of seven days or less for defensive
purposes. For specific limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments in
securities subject to repurchase agreements, refer to the Statement of Additional
Information for each Underlying Fund.

      Repurchase agreements, considered "loans" under the Investment Company Act
are collateralized by the underlying security. The Underlying Funds' repurchase
agreements require that at all times while the repurchase agreement is in effect,
the value of the collateral must equal or exceed the repurchase price to fully
collateralize the repayment obligation. However, if the vendor fails to pay the
resale price on the delivery date, the Underlying Funds may incur costs in
disposing of the collateral and may experience losses if there is any delay in
its ability to do so. The Underlying Funds' 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 Underlying Funds, along with other affiliated entities
managed by their manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more
joint repurchase accounts. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase
agreements, secured by U.S. government securities. Securities that are pledged as
collateral for repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the
agreements mature. Each joint repurchase arrangement requires that the market
value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and
principal; however, in the event of default by the other party to the agreement,
retention or sale of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

      |X|   Reverse Repurchase Agreements.  Some of the Underlying Funds can use
reverse repurchase agreements on debt obligations they own. Under a reverse
repurchase agreement, an Underlying Fund sells an underlying debt obligation and
simultaneously agrees to repurchase the same security at an agreed-upon price on
an agreed-upon date. The Underlying 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 Underlying Fund under a reverse repurchase agreement could decline
below the price at which the Underlying Fund is obligated to repurchase them.
These agreements are considered borrowings by the Underlying Fund and will be
subject to the asset coverage requirement under the Underlying Fund's policy on
borrowing.

      |X|   "When-Issued" and "Delayed-Delivery" Transactions.  Some of the
Underlying Funds may invest in securities on a "when-issued" basis and may
purchase or sell securities on a "delayed-delivery" basis. When-issued and
delayed-delivery are terms that refer to securities whose terms and indenture are
available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for
immediate delivery. For specific limitations on the Underlying Fund's investments
in "when-issued" and "delayed-delivery" transactions, refer to the Statement of
Additional Information for each Underlying Fund.

      When such transactions are negotiated, the price (which is generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made. Delivery
and payment for the securities take place at a later date. The securities are
subject to change in value from market fluctuations during the period until
settlement. The value at delivery may be less than the purchase price. For
example, changes in interest rates in a direction other than that expected by the
Manager before settlement will affect the value of such securities and may cause
a loss to an Underlying Fund. During the period between purchase and settlement,
no payment is made by an Underlying Fund to the issuer and no interest accrues to
the Underlying Fund from the investment until it receives the security at
settlement. There is a risk of loss to the Underlying Fund if the value of the
security changes prior to the settlement date, and there is the risk that the
other party may not perform.

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

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

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

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

      |X|   Loans of Portfolio Securities.  To raise cash for income or liquidity
purposes, some of the Underlying Funds can lend their portfolio securities to
brokers, dealers and other types of financial institutions approved by each
Underlying Fund's Board of Trustees or Directors. For specific limitations on the
Underlying Funds' loans of portfolio securities, refer to the Statement of
Additional Information for each Underlying Fund. In addition, these loans are
subject to the other conditions described in the Statement of Additional
Information of each Underlying Fund.

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

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

      Some of the Underlying Funds may lend their portfolio securities to
brokers, dealers and other financial institutions pursuant to the Securities
Lending Agreement (the "Securities Lending Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase,
subject to the restrictions stated in the prospectuses of those Underlying Funds.
Under the Securities Lending Agreement and applicable regulatory requirements
(which are subject to change), the loan collateral must, on each business day, be
at least equal to the value of the loaned securities and must consist of cash,
bank letters of credit or securities of the U.S. government (or its agencies or
instrumentalities), or other cash equivalents in which those Underlying Funds are
permitted to invest. To be acceptable as collateral, letters of credit must
obligate a bank to pay to JP Morgan Chase, as agent, amounts demanded by an
Underlying Fund if the demand meets the terms of the letter. Such terms of the
letter of credit and the issuing bank must be satisfactory to JP Morgan Chase and
the Underlying Funds. The Underlying Fund will receive, pursuant to the
Securities Lending Agreement, 80% of all annual net income (i.e., net of rebates
to the Borrower) from securities lending transactions. JP Morgan Chase has
agreed, in general, to guarantee the obligations of borrowers to return loaned
securities and to be responsible for expenses relating to securities lending. The
Underlying Funds will be responsible, however, for risks associated with the
investment of cash collateral, including the risk that the issuer of the security
in which the cash collateral has been invested defaults. The Securities Lending
Agreement may be terminated by either JP Morgan Chase or the Underlying Funds on
30 days' written notice. The terms of an Underlying Fund's loans must also meet
applicable tests in order to receive favorable treatment under the Internal
Revenue Code and permit the Underlying Fund to reacquire loaned securities on
five business days' notice or in time to vote on any important matter. An
Underlying Fund will lend its portfolio securities in conformity with its
Securities Lending Guidelines, as adopted by each Underlying Fund's Board.

      |X|   Borrowing for Leverage.  The Funds and many of the Underlying Funds
have the ability to borrow from banks, to invest the borrowed funds in portfolio
securities. This speculative technique is known as "leverage." Currently, under
the Investment Company Act, absent exemptive relief, a mutual fund may borrow
only from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow is up to one-third of its
total assets (including the amount borrowed) less 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. If the value of the Funds' or the
Underlying Funds' assets fail to meet the 300% asset coverage requirement, the
Funds or the Underlying Funds will reduce their bank debt within three days to
meet the requirement. To do so, the Funds or the Underlying Funds might have to
sell a portion of their investments at a disadvantageous time.

            The Funds or the Underlying Funds will pay interest on their
borrowings, and that interest expense will raise the overall expenses of the
Funds or the Underlying Funds and reduce their returns. If they do borrow, their
expenses will be greater than comparable funds that do not borrow for leverage.
Additionally, the Fund's or the Underlying Funds' net asset values per share
might fluctuate more than that of funds that do not borrow.

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

      The Underlying Fund may also acquire restricted securities through private
placements. Those securities have contractual restrictions on their public
resale. Those restrictions may make it more difficult to value them, and might
limit an Underlying Fund's ability to dispose of the securities and might lower
the amount the Underlying Fund could realize upon the sale.

      The Underlying Funds have limitations that apply to purchases of restricted
securities, as stated in their prospectuses. Those percentage restrictions
generally 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, as amended (the "Securities Act"), 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, an Underlying Fund's
holdings of that security may be considered to be illiquid.

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

      |X|   Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments.  When market, economic
or political conditions are unstable, or the Funds or the Underlying Funds'
Manager believes it is otherwise appropriate to reduce holdings in stocks, the
Funds and the Underlying Funds can invest in a variety of debt securities for
defensive purposes. The Funds and the Underlying Funds can also purchase these
securities for liquidity purposes to meet cash needs due to the redemption of a
Fund or an Underlying Fund, or to hold while waiting to reinvest cash received
from the sale of other portfolio securities. For specific types of securities an
Underlying Fund can buy when assuming a temporary defensive or interim investment
position, refer to the Statement of Additional Information for each Underlying
Fund. Examples of temporary defensive and interim investments the Funds may use,
and that some of the Underlying Funds may use, include:

o     high-quality (rated in the top two rating categories of
         nationally-recognized rating organizations or deemed by the Manager 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),
o     short-term debt obligations of corporate issuers,
o     certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic and foreign
         banks and savings and loan associations, and
o     repurchase agreements.

      These short-term debt securities would 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.



Portfolio Turnover

      "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at which the Funds and the
Underlying Funds trade their portfolio securities. For example, if the Funds or
Underlying Funds sold all of their securities during a one year period, their
portfolio turnover rate would be 100%. The Funds' and Underlying Funds' portfolio
turnover rates will fluctuate from year to year. It is not anticipated that the
Funds will have a high portfolio turnover rate, however, the Underlying Funds may
have a portfolio turnover rate of more than 100% annually.

      Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage and transaction
costs for the Underlying Funds, which may reduce their overall performance. Most
of the Funds' portfolio transactions, however, should involve trades in the
Underlying Funds that do not entail brokerage commissions. The realization of
capital gains from selling portfolio securities may result in distributions of
taxable long-term capital gains to shareholders. The Funds and the Underlying
Funds will normally distribute all of the capital gains they realize each year to
avoid excise taxes under the Internal Revenue Code.

            Investment Restrictions
The Funds and the Underlying Funds each have their own "fundamental" and
"non-fundamental" investment restrictions as described below. Certain of those
restrictions apply only to the extent required by the Investment Company Act, the
rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom. If the applicable
provisions of the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations or any
exemption should change, those restrictions will automatically reflect the new
requirements. Therefore the effect of those fundamental policies may change
without notice and without a shareholder vote.

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

      |X|   What Are "Fundamental Policies?" Fundamental policies are those
policies of each Fund or Underlying Fund that can be changed only by the vote of
a "majority" of such 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.

Each Fund's investment objective is not a fundamental policy. The investment
objectives of the Underlying Funds may be fundamental or non-fundamental,
according to the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of each
Underlying Fund. Other policies described in the Prospectus or this Statement of
Additional Information, of the Funds and/or the Underlying Funds, are
"fundamental" only if they are identified as such. Each Fund's Board of Trustees
and each Underlying Fund's Board of Directors or Trustees can change
non-fundamental policies without shareholder approval. However, significant
changes to the Funds' investment policies will be described in supplements or
updates to the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information, as
appropriate. The Funds' principal investment policies are described in the
Prospectus.

Do the Funds Have Additional Fundamental Policies? The following investment
restrictions are fundamental policies of the Funds:

o     A 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. This limitation applies to 75%
      of each 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. For purposes
      of this restriction, a Fund's investments will be considered be its pro
      rata portion of each Underlying Fund's portfolio securities.
o     A Fund cannot invest 25% or more of its total assets in any one industry or
      in a 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 to securities issued by investment companies.
o     A 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 Funds, as such statute, rules
      or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.
o     A 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     A 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     A 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     A Fund may not underwrite securities issued by others, except to the extent
      that such Fund may be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the
      Securities Act of 1933, as amended, when reselling securities held in its
      own portfolio.

      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 or an Underlying 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.


Do the Funds Have Any Restrictions That Are Not Fundamental? Each Fund has
investment restrictions that are not fundamental policies, which means that they
can be changed by vote of a majority the Fund's Board of Trustees without
shareholder approval. The following investment restriction is a non-fundamental
policy of the Funds:

o     A Fund may not invest in illiquid securities, except to the extent
      permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations
      thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to the Funds, as
      such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time
      to time. This restriction shall not apply to securities that mature within
      seven days or securities that the Board of Directors of the Fund has
      otherwise determined to be liquid pursuant to applicable law.

Currently, under the Investment Company Act, a mutual fund cannot invest in
illiquid securities (i.e., securities that cannot be readily resold or that
cannot otherwise be marketed, redeemed or put to the issuer or a third party), if
at the time of acquisition more than 15% of its net assets would be invested in
such securities. The shares of the Underlying Funds are not illiquid investments
under the Funds' policies or the applicable Investment Company Act rules and
regulations.

Do the Underlying Funds Have Fundamental Policies? Each of the Underlying Funds
has its own fundamental policies. Those policies may differ from the fundamental
policies of the Funds or the other Underlying Funds. The Funds and the Underlying
Funds each apply their own policies with respect to their own portfolio
investments. The following investment restrictions are fundamental policies of
the Underlying Funds:

                             Capital Appreciation Fund

o     Capital Appreciation 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. This limitation applies to
75% of Capital Appreciation 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.

o     Capital Appreciation 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 Capital Appreciation Fund, as
such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to
time.

o     Capital Appreciation Fund cannot make loans, except to the extent permitted
under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any
exemption there from that is applicable to Capital Appreciation Fund, as such
statute, rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

o     Capital Appreciation Fund cannot invest 25% or more of its total assets in
any one industry. 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     Capital Appreciation 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     Capital Appreciation 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     Capital Appreciation 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.

                                  Core Bond Fund

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

o     Core Bond Fund cannot concentrate its investments (that means it cannot
invest 25% or more of its total assets) in any one industry. Gas, water, electric
and telephone utilities are considered to be separate industries for this purpose.

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

o     Core Bond Fund cannot invest in real estate or real estate mortgage loans.
However, Core Bond can purchase and sell securities issued or secured by
companies that invest in or deal in real estate or interests in real estate.

o     Core Bond Fund cannot underwrite securities. 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     Core Bond Fund cannot borrow money in excess of 33 ?% of the value of its
total assets. Core Bond may borrow only from banks and/or affiliated investment
companies. With respect to this fundamental policy, Core Bond can borrow only if
it maintains a 300% ratio of assets to borrowings at all times in the manner set
forth in the Investment Company Act.

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



                              International Bond Fund

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

o     International Bond Fund cannot buy or sell real estate. However,
International Bond Fund can purchase debt securities secured by real estate or
interests in real estate or issued by companies, including real estate
investment trusts, which invest in real estate or interests in real estate.

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

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

o     International Bond Fund cannot borrow money in excess of 33 1/3% of the
value of its total assets.  International Bond Fund may borrow only from banks
and/or affiliated investment companies.  International Bond Fund cannot make
any investment at a time during which its borrowings exceed 5% of the value of
its assets.  With respect to this fundamental policy, International Bond Fund
can borrow only if it maintains a 300% ratio of assets to borrowings at all
times in the manner set forth in the Investment Company Act.

International Bond Fund cannot concentrate investments. That means it cannot
invest 25% or more of its total assets in any one industry. International Bond
Fund will not invest 25% or more of its total assets in government securities of
any one foreign company or in debt and equity securities issued by companies
organized under the laws of any one foreign country. Obligations of the U.S.
government, its agencies and instrumentalities are not considered to be part of
an "industry" for the purposes of this policy.

Non-Diversification of International Bond Fund's Investments.  International Bond
Fund is "non-diversified," as defined in the Investment Company Act.  Funds that
are diversified have restrictions against investing too much of their assets in
the securities of any one "issuer."  That means that International Bond Fund can
invest more of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than a fund that
is diversified.

      Being non-diversified poses additional investment risks, because if
International Bond Fund invests more of its assets in fewer issuers, the value of
its shares is subject to greater fluctuations from adverse conditions affecting
any one of those issuers.  However, International Bond Fund does limit its
investments in the securities of any one issuer to qualify for tax purposes as a
"regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code.  By qualifying, it
does not have to pay federal income taxes on amounts distributed if more than 90%
of its earnings are distributed to shareholders.  To qualify, International Bond
Fund must meet a number of conditions.  First, not more than 25% of the market
value of International Bond Fund's total assets may be invested in the securities
of a single issuer.  Second, with respect to 50% of the market value of its total
assets, (1) no more than 5% of the market value of its total assets may be
invested in the securities of a single issuer, and (2) International Bond Fund
must not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of a single
issuer.  This is not a fundamental policy.
                             International Growth Fund

o     International Growth 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. This 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.

o     International Growth 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 International Growth Fund, as such
statute, rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations

Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption
therefrom that is applicable to the Fund, as such statute, rules or

o     Main Street Fund cannot buy securities issued or guaranteed by any one
issuer if more than 5% of its total assets would be invested in securities of
that issuer or it would then own more than 10% of that issuer's voting

limit does not apply to securities issued by the U.S. Government or any of its
agencies or instrumentalities, or securities of other investment companies.

permitted exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the

prohibit certain investment activities for which assets of Main Street Fund are
designated as segregated, or margin, collateral or escrow arrangements are
established, to cover the related obligations. Examples of those activities
include borrowing money, reverse repurchase agreements, delayed-delivery and
when-issued arrangements for portfolio securities transactions, and contracts to
buy or sell derivatives, hedging instruments, options or futures.

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

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

of other investment companies.

contracts, except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the

                       Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund

o     Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not purchase the securities,
hybrid instruments and other instruments of any issuer if, as a result, 25% or
more of Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's total assets would be invested in
the securities of companies whose principal business activities are in the same
industry. This restriction does not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities, or repurchase
agreements secured by them.

         However, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will invest 25% or more of
its total assets in securities, hybrid instruments and other instruments,
including futures and forward contracts, related options and swaps, linked to the
energy and natural resources, agriculture, livestock, industrial metals, and
precious metals industries. The individual components of an index will be
considered as separate industries for this purpose.

o     Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not issue any senior security.
However, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may enter into commitments to
purchase securities in accordance with Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's
investment program, including reverse repurchase agreements, delayed-delivery and
when-issued securities, which may be considered the issuance of senior
securities. Additionally, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may engage in
transactions that may result in the issuance of a senior security to the extent
permitted under the Investment Company Act and applicable regulations,
interpretations of the Investment Company Act or an exemptive order. Commodity
Strategy Total Return Fund may also engage in short sales of securities to the
extent permitted in its investment program and other restrictions. The purchase
or sale of hybrid instruments, futures contracts and related options shall not be
considered to involve the issuance of senior securities. Moreover, Commodity
Strategy Total Return Fund may borrow money as authorized by the Investment
Company Act.

o     Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not purchase or sell physical
commodities unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other
instruments. This restriction shall not prevent Commodity Strategy Total Return
Fund from purchasing or selling hybrid instruments, options and futures contracts
with respect to individual commodities or indices, or from investing in
securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities or indices.

o     Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not purchase or sell real estate
unless acquired as a result of direct ownership of securities or other
instruments. This restriction shall not prevent Commodity Strategy Total Return
Fund from investing in securities or other instruments backed by real estate or
securities of companies engaged in the real estate business, including real
estate investment trusts. This restriction does not preclude Commodity Strategy
Total Return Fund from buying securities backed by mortgages on real estate or
securities of companies engaged in such activities. Commodity Strategy Total
Return Fund can also invest in real estate operating companies and shares of
companies engaged in other real estate related businesses.

o     Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund cannot underwrite securities issued by
other persons. A permitted exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter

affiliated funds, provided that no such loan may be made if, as a result, the
aggregate of such loans would exceed 33 ?% of the value of its total assets
(taken at market value at the time of such loans), and (d) through repurchase
agreements. Currently, the Investment Company Act permits (a) lending of
securities, (b) purchasing debt securities or similar evidences of indebtedness,
(c) repurchase agreements and (d) interfund lending consistent with Commodity
Strategy Total Return Fund's exemptive order; or

o     Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund cannot borrow money in excess of 33 ?%
of the value of its total assets. Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may borrow
only from banks and/or affiliated investment companies. With respect to this
fundamental policy, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund can borrow only if it
maintains a 300% ratio of assets to borrowings at all times in the manner set
forth in the Investment Company Act. Currently, the Investment Company Act
permits a mutual fund to borrow from banks and/or affiliated investment companies
up to one-third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed). Commodity
Strategy Total Return Fund may borrow up to 5% of its total assets for temporary
purposes from any person. Interfund borrowing must be consistent with Commodity
Strategy Total Return Fund's exemptive order.

Do the Underlying Funds Have Any Restrictions That Are Not Fundamental? Each of
the Underlying Funds has its own investment restrictions that are not fundamental
policies, which means that they can be changed by vote of a majority of each
respective Underlying Fund's Board of Trustees without shareholder approval.
Those policies may differ from the policies of the Funds or the other Underlying
Funds. The Funds and the Underlying Funds each apply their own policies with
respect to their own portfolio investments. The following investment restrictions
are non-fundamental policies of the Underlying Funds as indicated below.

o     None of the Underlying Funds can 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 and
U.S. Government Trust cannot invest in any securities of other investment
companies except if it acquires them as part of a merger, consolidation or
acquisition of assets.

o     For purposes of each applicable Underlying Fund's policy not to concentrate
its investments as described above, each applicable Underlying Fund has adopted
classifications of industries and groups of related industries. These
classifications are not fundamental policies.

o     Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund cannot invest in interests in oil, gas, or
other mineral exploration or development programs.

o     Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund will provide at least 60 days' prior notice of

of small- and mid-cap domestic and foreign issuers, respectively.

hypothecate any of its assets. However, it can make margin deposits and escrow
arrangements in connection with any of the hedging instruments permitted by any
of its other investment policies. MidCap Fund cannot invest in companies for the

of that issuer and together own more than 5% of the securities of that issuer.

o     Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund cannot make short sales or purchase securities
on margin. However, Small- & Mid- Cap Value Fund can make short-term borrowings
when necessary for the clearance of purchases of portfolio securities.

         Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings

      Each Fund and each Underlying Fund have adopted policies and procedures
concerning the dissemination of information about their portfolio holdings by
employees, officers and/or directors of the Manager, Distributor, and Transfer
Agent. These policies are designed to ensure 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 a Funds' or Underlying Funds' investment program or enable
third parties to use that information in a manner that is harmful to the Funds or
Underlying Funds.

o     Public Disclosure. The Funds' and the Underlying Funds' portfolio holdings
         are made publicly available no later than 60 days after the close of
         each of the Funds' or Underlying Funds' fiscal quarters in semi-annual
         and annual reports to shareholders, or in its Statements of Investments
         on Form N-Q, which 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 "View Fund
         Information for:" menu) with a 15-day lag.  The Funds and Underlying
         Funds may release a more restrictive list of holdings (e.g. the top five
         or top 10 portfolio holding) or may release no holdings if that is in
         the best interests of the Funds or Underlying Funds and its
         shareholders.  Other general information about the Funds' and Underlying
         Funds' portfolio investments, such as portfolio composition by asset
         class, industry, country, currency, credit rating or maturity, may also
         be posted.

      Until publicly disclosed, the Funds' or Underlying Funds' portfolio
holdings are proprietary, confidential business information. While recognizing
the importance of 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 Funds' or Underlying Funds' portfolio holdings information could
attempt to use that information to trade ahead of or against the Funds or
Underlying Funds, which could negatively affect the prices the Funds or
Underlying Funds are able to obtain in portfolio transactions or the availability
of the securities that the portfolio manager is trading on the Funds' or
Underlying Funds' 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 Funds or
Underlying Funds in other investment companies or accounts managed by the Manager
or any affiliated person of the Manager) in connection with the disclosure of the
Funds' or Underlying Funds' non-public portfolio holdings. The receipt of
investment advisory fees or other fees and compensation paid to the Manager and
its subsidiaries pursuant to agreements approved by each Fund's or Underlying
Funds' 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 Funds or Underlying Funds.

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 Funds' or Underlying Funds' complete portfolio holdings may be disclosed no
sooner than 30-days after the relevant month-end, subject to the procedures
below. If the Funds' or Underlying Funds' 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 a
         Fund's or Underlying Funds' 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 a Fund's or Underlying Funds' 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 Funds' or
         Underlying Funds' holdings confidential and agreeing not to trade
         directly or indirectly based on the information.

The Funds' or Underlying Funds' 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 each
Fund's or Underlying Fund's Board, or as an employee, officer and/or director of
the Manager, 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 each Fund's or Underlying Fund's Manager, Distributor and
         Transfer Agent who need to have access to such information (as
         determined by senior officers of such entity),
o     Each Fund's or Underlying Fund's certified public accountants and
         independent registered public accounting firm,
o     Members of each Fund's or Underlying Fund's Board and the Board's legal
         counsel,
o     The Funds' or an Underlying Fund's custodian bank,
o     A proxy voting service designated by a Fund or Underlying 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
         a Fund's or Underlying Fund's regular pricing services).

Portfolio holdings information of the Funds or Underlying Funds may be provided,
under limited circumstances, to brokers and/or dealers with whom the Funds or
Underlying Funds trade and/or entities that provide investment coverage and/or
analytical information regarding the Funds' or Underlying Funds' portfolios,
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 Funds or Underlying Funds, 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 Funds or Underlying Funds.
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 Funds or Underlying Funds are not priced by a Fund's or
         Underlying Fund's regular pricing services),
o     Dealers to obtain price quotations where the Funds or Underlying Funds are
         not identified as the owner.

Portfolio holdings information (which may include information on a Funds' or
Underlying Funds' 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 Funds or Underlying Funds
         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, NASD, 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),
o     To consultants for retirement plans for plan sponsors/discussions at due
         diligence meetings (pursuant to confidentiality agreements),
o     Investment bankers in connection with merger discussions (pursuant to
         confidentiality agreements).

Portfolio managers and analysts may, subject to the Manager's policies on
communications with the press and other media, discuss portfolio information in
interviews with members of the media, or in due diligence or similar meetings
with clients or prospective purchasers of the Funds' or Underlying Funds' shares
or their financial intermediary representatives.

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

Any permitted release of otherwise non-public portfolio holdings information must
be in accordance with the Funds' and Underlying Funds' then-current policy on
approved methods for communicating confidential information, including but not
limited to the Funds' and Underlying Funds' policy as to use of secure e-mail
technology.

The Chief Compliance Officer (the "CCO") of the Funds, the Underlying Funds, the
Manager, the Distributor, and the Transfer Agent shall oversee compliance by the
Manager, Distributor, Transfer Agent, and their personnel with these policies and
procedures. At least annually, the CCO shall report to each Fund's and Underlying
Fund's Board on such compliance oversight and on the categories of entities and
individuals to which disclosure of portfolio holdings of the Funds or Underlying
Funds has been made during the preceding year pursuant to these policies. The CCO
shall report to each Fund's and Underlying Fund's Board any material violation of
these policies and procedures during the previous calendar quarter 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 Funds and the Underlying Funds have entered into ongoing
arrangements to make available information about the Funds' or Underlying Funds'
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 Funds Are Managed


      Organization and History. The Funds are open-end, diversified management
investment companies with an unlimited number of authorized shares of beneficial
interest. The Funds were organized as Massachusetts business trusts on November
12, 2007.

      |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 Funds. Shares do not
have cumulative voting rights, preemptive rights or subscription rights. Shares
may be voted in person or by proxy at shareholder meetings.

      Each 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 the vote of shareholders. Each share of a 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, each
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 Funds, to remove a Trustee
or to take other action described in the Funds' Declarations 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
applicable 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 such Fund's outstanding shares. The Trustees may also take other
action as permitted by the Investment Company Act.

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

      Each Fund's contractual arrangements state that any person doing business
with the Fund (and each shareholder of the Funds) 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. Each Fund is governed by
a Board of Trustees, which is responsible for protecting the interests of
shareholders under Massachusetts law. The Funds and the Underlying Funds may have
the same individuals as members of their respective boards, and in each instance
such board members maintain fiduciary duties to fund shareholders under the
Investment Company Act. The Manager's fund of funds committee monitors the
investment process, identifies, addresses and resolves any potential issues and
reports periodically to the Boards of the Funds and of each Underlying Fund. The
Trustees meet periodically throughout the year to oversee the Funds' activities,
review its performance, and review the actions of the Manager.

      The Board of Trustees has an Audit Committee, a Regulatory & Oversight
Committee, and a Governance Committee. Each of the committees is comprised solely
of Independent Trustees.

      The members of the Audit Committee are David K. Downes (Chairman), Phillip
A. Griffiths, Mary F. Miller, Russell S. Reynolds, Jr., Joseph M. Wikler and
Peter I. Wold. 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 Funds' independent
Auditors and the Independent Trustees; (v) reviewing the independence of the
Funds' independent Auditors; and (vi) pre-approving the provision of any audit or
non-audit services by the Funds' 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 evaluates and
reports to the Board on the Funds' 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 Funds 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 Joel W. Motley (Chairman),
Matthew P. Fink, Robert G. Galli, Mary F. Miller, Russell S. Reynolds, Jr. and
Peter I. Wold. The Governance Committee reviews the Funds' governance guidelines,
the adequacy of the Funds' 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 Funds, and
monitors the Funds' 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 Funds' 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 Fund Name, 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 Funds 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.

Trustees is an Independent Trustee. All of the Trustees are also directors or

      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
OppenheimerFunds complex.

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

      Messrs. Wolfgruber, Webman, Schadt, Leavy, Kurinets, Gillespie, Murphy,
Petersen, Szilagyi, Vandehey, Wixted and Zack and Mss. Bloomberg and Ives who are
officers of the Funds, hold the same offices with one or more of the other Board I
Funds. As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, the Funds had
not commenced operations and therefore none of the Trustees or officers owned
shares of any of the Funds. In addition, none of the Independent Trustees (nor any
of their immediate family members) owns securities of either the Manager 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 or the
Distributor.

Biographical Information. The Trustees and officers, their positions with the
Funds, length of service in such position(s) and principal occupations and
business affiliations during at least the past five years are listed in the

share ownership in the Funds and in all of the registered investment companies

      |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 that 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 Boards of Trustees have 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 is determined based upon the performance of
the selected funds.

      Deferral of Trustees' fees under the plan will not materially affect the
Funds' assets, liabilities or net income per share. The plan will not obligate
the Funds 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, the Funds
may invest in the funds selected by the Trustee under the plan without
shareholder approval for the limited purpose of determining the value of the
Trustee's deferred compensation account.

Major Shareholders. As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information,
the Funds had not commenced operations and OppenheimerFunds, Inc. was the only
shareholder of record of the Funds.

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

      The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to each 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. The Code of
Ethics can also be viewed as part of each 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. Each Fund is structured as a fund of funds
and, as such, will invest assets in certain of the Underlying Funds. Accordingly,
each Fund, in its capacity as a shareholder in the Underlying Funds, may be
requested to vote on a matter pertaining to those Underlying Funds. With respect
to any such matter, each Fund will vote its shares in the Underlying Funds in the
same proportion as the vote of all other shareholders in that Underlying Fund.

      Each Underlying Fund has adopted Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures under
which the Underlying Fund votes proxies relating to securities ("portfolio
proxies") held by the Underlying Fund. Each Underlying Fund's primary
consideration in voting portfolio proxies is the financial interests of the
Underlying Fund and its shareholders. The Underlying Funds will retain an
unaffiliated third-party as its agent to vote portfolio proxies in accordance
with the Underlying Funds' Proxy Voting Guidelines and to maintain records of
such portfolio proxy voting. The Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures
Proxy Voting include provisions to address conflicts of interest that may arise
between the Underlying Funds 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 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     Each Underlying Fund votes with the recommendation of the issuer's
         management on routine matters, including election of directors nominated
         by management and ratification of auditors, unless circumstances
         indicate otherwise.
o     Each Underlying 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, each Underlying Fund opposes anti-takeover proposals and
         supports elimination, or the ability of shareholders to vote on the
         preservation or elimination, of anti-takeover proposals, absent unusual
         circumstances.
o     Each Underlying Fund supports shareholder proposals to reduce a
         super-majority vote requirement, and opposes management proposals to add
         a super-majority vote requirement.
o     Each Underlying Fund opposes proposals to classify the board of directors.
o     Each Underlying Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.
o     Each Underlying Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options without
         shareholder approval.
o     Each Underlying Fund generally considers executive compensation questions
         such as stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary business
         activity. Each Underlying Fund analyzes stock option plans, paying
         particular attention to their dilutive effect. While each Underlying
         Fund generally supports management proposals, it opposes plans it
         considers to be excessive.

      The Funds, and each Underlying Fund, is required to file Form N-PX, with
each complete proxy voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later
than August 31st of each year. Each Fund's Form N-PX filing is available (i)
without charge, upon request, by calling the Funds' 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 Funds under investment advisory
agreements between the Manager and the Funds. The Manager selects securities for
the Funds' portfolios and handles their day-to-day business. The portfolio
managers of the Funds are employed by the Manager and are the persons who are
principally responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds' portfolios.
Other members of the Manager's investment teams provide the portfolio managers
with counsel and support in managing the Funds' portfolios.

      The agreements require the Manager, at its expense, to provide the Funds
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 Funds.
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 Funds.

      The Funds pay expenses not expressly assumed by the Manager under the
advisory agreement. The advisory agreement lists examples of expenses paid by the
Funds. 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 Funds to the Manager are calculated at the rates described in the Prospectus,
which are applied to the assets of the Funds as a whole. The fees are allocated
to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the Funds' net
assets represented by that class.

      The investment advisory agreement states that in the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties or
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the investment advisory
agreement, the Manager is not liable for any loss the Funds sustain in connection
with matters to which the agreement relates.

      The agreement permits the Manager to act as investment advisor 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 investment advisor or
general distributor. If the Manager shall no longer act as investment advisor to
the Fund, the Manager may withdraw the right of the Fund to use the name
"Oppenheimer" as part of its name.

Portfolio Managers. The Funds are managed by an Asset Allocation Committee which
includes Rudi W. Schadt, Jerry A. Webman and Kurt Wolfgruber (each is referred to
as a "Portfolio Manager" and collectively they are referred to as the "Portfolio
Managers") who are responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds'
investments.


      |X|   Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the Funds'
investments, members of the portfolio management team also manage other
investment portfolios and other accounts, on behalf of the Manager or its
affiliates. The following table provides information regarding those portfolios
and accounts as of January 31, 2008:

1.  In millions
2.  Does not include personal accounts of portfolio managers and their
families, which are subject to the Code of Ethics.


      As indicated above, each of the Portfolio Managers also manage other funds.
Potentially, at times, those responsibilities could conflict with the interests
of the Funds. That may occur whether the investment strategies of the other funds
are the same as, or different from, the Funds' investment objectives and
strategies. For example, the Portfolio Manager may need to allocate investment
opportunities between a Fund and another fund having similar objectives or
strategies, or he may need to execute transactions for another fund that could
have a negative impact on the value of securities held by a Fund. Not all funds
and accounts advised by the Manager have the same management fee. If the
management fee structure of another fund is more advantageous to the Manager than
the fee structure of the Funds, the Manager could have an incentive to favor the
other funds. However, the Manager's compliance procedures and Code of Ethics
recognize the Manager's fiduciary obligations to treat all of its clients,
including the Funds, fairly and equitably, and are designed to preclude the
Portfolio Managers from favoring one client over another. It is possible, of
course, that those compliance procedures and the Code of Ethics may not always be
adequate to do so. At different times, the Portfolio Managers may manage other
funds or accounts with investment objectives and strategies that are similar to
those of a fund, or may manage funds or accounts with investment objectives and
strategies that are different from those of the Funds.

      |X|   Compensation of the Portfolio Managers. The Portfolio Managers are
employed and compensated by the Manager, not the Funds. Under the Manager's
compensation program for its portfolio managers and portfolio analysts, their
compensation is based primarily on the investment performance results of the
Funds and accounts they manage, rather than on the financial success of the
Manager. This is intended to align the portfolio managers' and analysts'
interests with the success of the Funds and accounts and their investors. The
Manager's compensation structure is designed to attract and retain highly
qualified investment management professionals and to reward individual and team
contributions toward creating shareholder value. As of the date of this Statement
of Additional Information, each Portfolio Manager's compensation consisted of
three elements: a base salary, an annual discretionary bonus and eligibility to
participate in long-term awards of options and appreciation rights in regard to
the common stock of the Manager's holding company parent. Senior portfolio
managers may also be eligible to participate in the Manager's deferred
compensation plan. Portfolio Managers who are responsible for duties as senior
executives of the Manager may also receive compensation for the performance of
their duties in that separate capacity.

      The base pay component of each portfolio manager is reviewed regularly to
ensure that it reflects the performance of the individual, is commensurate with
the requirements of the particular portfolio, reflects any specific competence or
specialty of the individual manager, and is competitive with other comparable
positions. The annual discretionary bonus is determined by senior management of
the Manager and is based on a number of factors, including a Fund's pre-tax
performance for periods of up to five years, measured against an appropriate
Lipper benchmark selected by management. The Portfolio Managers do not receive
additional compensation with respect to the performance of the Funds. They are
compensated based on the performance of the Underlying Funds. Other factors
considered include management quality (such as style consistency, risk
management, sector coverage, team leadership and coaching) and organizational
development. The compensation structure is intended to be internally equitable
and serve to reduce potential conflicts of interest between the Portfolio and
other Funds managed by the Portfolio Managers. The compensation structure of
certain other portfolios managed by the Portfolio Managers may be different from
the compensation structure of the Underlying Funds, described above. The
Portfolio Manager's compensation with regard to those portfolios may, under
certain circumstances, include an amount based on the amount of the management
fee.

      |X|   Ownership of Funds Shares. As of the date of this Statement of
Additional Information, the Funds have not commenced operations. Accordingly,
none of the Portfolio Managers beneficially owned any shares of the Funds.

            Brokerage Policies of the Funds

Most of the portfolio transactions of the Funds will be the purchase or sale of
securities of the Underlying Funds, which do not involve any commissions or other
transaction fees. If a Fund invests in other securities, the Manager will follow
the brokerage practices of the Underlying Funds described below.

Brokerage Provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreements.  One of the duties of
the Manager under the investment advisory agreement of each Underlying Fund is to
arrange the portfolio transactions for those funds. The advisory agreement
contains provisions relating to the employment of broker-dealers to effect the
Underlying Funds' portfolio transactions. The Manager is authorized '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 Funds to obtain, at
reasonable expense, the "best execution" of the Funds' 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, the Manager 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 each Underlying Fund as established
by its Board of Trustees.

      Under the Underlying Funds' investment advisory agreements, in choosing
brokers to execute portfolio transactions, the Manager may select brokers (other
than affiliates) that provide both brokerage and research services to the
Underlying Funds and/or the other accounts over which the Manager or its
affiliates have investment discretion. 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
each Underlying Fund subject to the provisions of the Underlying Fund's
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.

      Other accounts advised by the Manager have investment policies similar to
those of an Underlying Fund. Those other accounts may purchase or sell the same
securities as an Underlying Fund at the same time as an Underlying 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 (and the Underlying Funds' Boards
of Trustees have approved) procedures that permit the Underlying Funds to direct
portfolio securities transactions to brokers or dealers that also promote or sell
shares of the Underlying Funds, subject to the "best execution" considerations
discussed above. Those procedures are designed to prevent: (1) the Manager's
personnel who effect an Underlying Fund's portfolio transactions from taking into
account a broker's or dealer's promotion or sales of the Underlying Fund's shares
when allocating those portfolio transactions, and (2) the Underlying Funds, the
Manager and the Distributor from entering into agreements or understandings under
which the Manager directs or is expected to direct an Underlying Funds' 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 Underlying
Funds' shares or the shares of any of the other Oppenheimer funds.

      The Underlying Funds' investment advisory agreements permit the Manager to
allocate brokerage for research services. The research services provided by a
particular broker may be useful both to an Underlying 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 of an
Underlying Fund 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 of an Underlying Fund 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 an Underlying
Fund's portfolio or are being considered for purchase. The Manager provides
information to the Underlying Funds' Boards about the commissions paid to brokers
furnishing such services, together with the Manager's representation that the
amount of such commissions was reasonably related to the value or benefit of such
services.

            Distribution and Service Plans

The Distributor. Under its General Distributor's Agreement with the Funds, the
Distributor acts as the Funds' principal underwriter in the continuous public
offering of the Funds' 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.

Distribution and Service Plans. Each 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 Funds pay
the Distributor for all or a portion of the 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, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of
voting on that plan. 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.

      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 Funds, to compensate
brokers, dealers, financial institutions and other intermediaries for providing
distribution assistance and/or administrative services or that otherwise promote
sales of the Funds' shares. These payments, some of which may be referred to as
"revenue sharing," may relate to the Funds' 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 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 Funds automatically
convert into Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the Funds must obtain the
approval of both Class A and Class B shareholders for a proposed material
amendment to the Class A Plan that would materially increase payments under the
plan. That approval must be by a "majority" (as defined in the Investment Company
Act) of the shares of each Class, voting separately by class.

      While the Plans are in effect, the Treasurer of the Funds 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 Funds who are not "interested persons" of the Funds are
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, no payment will be made to any recipient in any period in
which the aggregate net asset value of all Fund shares 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.

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

      The Distributor does not received 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 fees paid by the Funds 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.

      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.

      |X|   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 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 Funds 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 or 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
periodic service fee payments 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 the 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 or 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 increases
Class N expenses by 0.50% of the net assets per year of the respective class.

      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
concessions and service fee in advance at the time of purchase.

      The asset-based sales charges on Class B, Class C and Class N shares allow
investors to buy shares without a front-end sales charge while allowing the
Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those shares. The Funds pay the
asset-based sales charges to the Distributor for its services rendered in
distributing Class B, Class C and Class N shares. The payments are made to the
Distributor in recognition that the Distributor:

o     pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at the time of
         sale and pays service fees as described above,
o     may finance payment of sales concessions and/or the advance of the service
         fee payment to recipients under the plans, or may provide such financing
         from its own resources or from the resources of an affiliate,
o     employs personnel to support distribution of Class B, Class C and Class N
         shares,
o     bears the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses (other
         than those furnished to current shareholders) and state "blue sky"
         registration fees and certain other distribution expenses,
o     may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B, Class C
         and Class N shares without receiving payment under the plans and
         therefore may not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent the
         plans,
o     receives payments under the plans consistent with the service fees and
         asset-based sales charges paid by other non-proprietary funds that
         charge 12b-1 fees,
o     may use the payments under the plan to include the Funds in various
         third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund shares,
o     may experience increased difficulty selling the Funds' 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 Funds, 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 Funds 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 Funds 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 Funds. 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 a 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.

      All payments under the plans are subject to the limitations imposed by the
Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), formerly
known as the NASD. on payments of asset-based sales charges and service fees.

            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 Statement of Additional Information. 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
Statement of Additional Information. 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 Funds' 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 Funds' 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 Funds 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 the NASD. 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 Funds or other Oppenheimer
funds, or to support the marketing or promotional efforts of the Distributor in
offering shares of the Funds or other Oppenheimer funds. In addition, some types
of payments may provide a financial intermediary with an incentive to recommend
the Funds 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 Funds' Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information. 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 Funds or other Oppenheimer funds, a financial intermediary's
sales of shares of the Funds or such other Oppenheimer funds is not a
consideration for the Manager when choosing brokers or dealers to effect
portfolio transactions for the Funds 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 Funds
      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, 2007, 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 Funds

Explanation of Performance Terminology. The Funds use a variety of terms to
illustrate their 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. You can obtain current performance information
by calling the Funds' Transfer Agent at 1.800.225.5677 or by visiting the
OppenheimerFunds Internet website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

      The Funds' illustrations of their 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 they are to be calculated. In general, any advertisement
by the Funds of their performance data must include the average annual total
returns for the advertised class of shares of the Funds.

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

o     Total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical account in a 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 Funds' performance returns may not reflect the effect of taxes on
      dividends and capital gains distributions.
o     An investment in the Funds is not insured by the FDIC or any other
      government agency.
o     The principal value of the Funds' 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 Funds are affected by market conditions, the quality of the
Funds' investments, the maturity of those investments, the types of investments
the Funds hold, and its operating expenses that are allocated to the particular
class.

      |X|   Total Return Information. There are different types of "total
returns" to measure each Fund's performance. Total return is the change in value
of a hypothetical investment in the Funds 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 Funds use 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 period.

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

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

      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 Funds 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 Funds distributions, but not on
the redemption of Fund shares, according to the following formula:

      1/n
(ATVD)
(----) - 1 = Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on 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
Funds 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:

       1/n
(ATVDR)
(-----) - 1 = Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on Distributions and Redemption)
(  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 Funds 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. 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.  Each Fund compares its performance annually to
that of an appropriate broadly-based market index in its Annual Report to
shareholders. You can obtain that information by contacting the Transfer Agent at
the addresses or telephone numbers shown on the cover of this Statement of
Additional Information. Each 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.

      |X|   Lipper Rankings.  From time to time the Funds may publish the ranking
of the performance of their 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 Funds,
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 fund 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 Funds may publish the star
rating of the performance of their classes of shares by Morningstar, Inc., an
independent mutual funds monitoring service. Morningstar rates mutual funds in
their specialized market sector. The Funds are not yet rated.

      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 the funds' 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 Funds may include in its advertisements and
sales literature performance information about the Funds 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 Funds'
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 funds statistical services.

      Investors may also wish to compare the returns on the Funds' 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
Funds' returns and share prices are not guaranteed or insured by the FDIC or any
other agency and will fluctuate daily, while bank depository obligations may be
insured by the FDIC and may provide fixed rates of return. Repayment of principal
and payment of interest on Treasury securities is backed by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. government.

      From time to time, the Funds 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 Funds may include in its advertisements and sales
literature the total return performance of a hypothetical investment account that
includes shares of the Funds 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
Funds and the total return performance of other Oppenheimer funds included in the
account. Additionally, from time to time, the Funds' 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 Funds.

         About Your Account

      How to Buy Shares

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

When you purchase shares of the Funds, your ownership interest in the shares in
the Funds will be recorded as a book entry on the records of the Funds. The Funds
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 Funds receive 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
Funds 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 Funds 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
Statement of Additional Information because the Distributor or dealer or broker
incurs little or no selling expenses.

The Oppenheimer Funds. The Oppenheimer funds are those mutual funds for which the
Distributor acts as the distributor and currently include the following:

you purchase Class A, Class B or Class C shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer
funds or Class A, Class B, Class C, Class G and Class H units purchases in
advisor sold Section 529 plans, for which the Manager or the Distributor serves
as the Program Manager or Program Distributor. A Letter is an investor's
statement in writing to the Distributor of his or her intention to purchase a
specified value of those shares or units during a 13-month period (the "Letter
period"), which begins on the date of the investor's first share purchase
following the establishment of the Letter. The sales charge on each purchase of
Class A shares during the Letter period will be at the rate that would apply to a
single lump-sum purchase of shares in the amount intended to be purchased. In
submitting a Letter, the investor makes no commitment to purchase shares.
However, if the investor does not fulfill the terms of the Letter within the
Letter period, he or she agrees to pay the additional sales charges that would
have been applicable to the purchases that were made. The investor agrees that
shares equal in value to 2% of the intended purchase amount will be held in
escrow by the Transfer Agent for that purpose, as described in "Terms of Escrow"
below. It is the responsibility of the dealer of record and/or the investor to
advise the Distributor about the Letter when placing purchase orders during the
Letter period. The investor must also notify the Distributor or his or her
financial intermediary of any qualifying 529 plan holdings.

      To determine whether an investor has fulfilled the terms of a Letter, the
Transfer Agent will count purchases of "qualified" Class A, Class B and Class C
shares and Class A, Class B, Class C, Class G and Class H units during the Letter
period. Purchases of Class N or Class Y shares, purchases made by reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions from the Fund or other Oppenheimer
funds, purchases of Class A shares with redemption proceeds under the
Reinvestment Privilege, and purchases of Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money
Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on which a sales charge has not
been paid do not count as "qualified" shares for satisfying the terms of a
Letter. An investor will also be considered to have fulfilled the Letter if the
value of the investor's total holdings of qualified shares on the last day of the
Letter period, calculated at the net asset value on that day, equals or exceeds
the intended purchase amount.

   If the terms of the Letter are not fulfilled within the Letter period, 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 on the first
business day following the expiration of the Letter period to reflect the sales
charge rates that are applicable to the actual total purchases.

   If total eligible purchases during the Letter period exceed the intended
purchase amount and also exceed the amount needed to qualify for the next sales
charge rate reduction (stated in the Prospectus), the sales charges paid may be
adjusted to that lower rate. That adjustment will only be made if and when the
dealer returns to the Distributor the amount of the excess concessions allowed or
paid to the dealer over the amount of concessions that are applicable to the
actual amount of purchases. The reduced sales charge adjustment will be made by
adding to the investors account the number of additional shares that would have
been purchased if the lower sales charge rate had been used. Those additional
shares will be determined using the net asset value per share in effect on the
date of such adjustment.

   By establishing a Letter, the investor agrees to be bound by the terms of the
Prospectus, this SAI and the application used for a Letter, and if those terms
are amended to be bound by the amended terms and that any amendments by the Fund
will apply automatically to existing Letters. Group retirement plans qualified
under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code may not establish a Letter,
however defined benefit plans and Single K sole proprietor plans may do so.


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

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

      2. If the Letter applies to more than one fund account, the investor can
designate the fund from which shares will be escrowed. If no fund is selected,
the Transfer Agent will escrow shares in the fund account that has the highest
dollar balance on the date of the first purchase under the Letter. If there are
not sufficient shares to cover the escrow amount, the Transfer Agent will escrow
shares in the fund account(s) with the next highest balance(s). If there are not
sufficient shares in the accounts to which the Letter applies, the Transfer Agent
may escrow shares in other accounts that are linked for Right of Accumulation
purposes. Additionally, if there are not sufficient shares available for escrow
at the time of the first purchase under the Letter, the Transfer Agent will
escrow future purchases until the escrow amount is met.

      3. If, during the Letter period, an investor exchanges shares of the Fund
for shares of another fund (as described in the Prospectus section titled "How to
Exchange Shares"), the Fund shares held in escrow will automatically be exchanged
for shares of the other fund and the escrow obligations will also be transferred
to that fund.

      4. If the total purchases under the Letter are less than the intended
purchases specified, on the first business day after the end of the Letter period
the Distributor will redeem escrowed shares equal in value to the difference
between the dollar amount of the sales charges actually paid and the amount of
the sales charges that would have been paid if the total purchases had been made
at a single time. Any shares remaining after such redemption will be released
from escrow.

      5. If the terms of the Letter are fulfilled, the escrowed shares will be
promptly released to the investor at the end of the Letter period.

      6. 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.
      Asset Builder Plans. As indicated in the Prospectus, you normally must
establish your Fund account with $1,000. However, you can open a Fund account for
as little as $500 if you establish an Asset Builder Plan to automatically
purchase additional shares directly from a bank account at the time of your
initial share purchase. An Asset Builder Plan is available only if your bank is
an ACH member. Under an Asset Builder Plan payments to purchase shares of a Fund
will be debited from your bank account automatically. Normally the debit will be
made two business days prior to the investment dates you select on your
application. Neither the Distributor, the Transfer Agent nor the Funds will be
responsible for any delays in purchasing shares that result from delays in ACH
transmissions.

      To establish an Asset Builder Plan at the time you initially purchase Fund
shares, complete the "Asset Builder Plan" information on the Account Application.
To establish an Asset Builder Plan for an existing account, use the Asset Builder
Enrollment Form. The Account Application and the Asset Builder Enrollment Form
are available by contacting the Distributor or may be downloaded from our website
at: www.oppenheimerfunds.com. Before you establish a new Fund account under the
Asset Builder Plan, you should obtain a prospectus of the selected fund and read
it carefully.

      You may change the amount of your Asset Builder payment or you can
terminate your 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 minimum additional purchase
under a new Asset Builder Plan is $50. For Asset Builder Plans established prior
to November 1, 2002, the minimum additional purchase is $25. Shares purchased by
Asset Builder Plan payments are subject to the redemption restrictions for recent
purchases described in the Prospectus. An Asset Builder Plan may not be used to
buy shares for OppenheimerFunds employer-sponsored qualified retirement accounts.
The Funds reserve 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 Funds without sales charges or at reduced sales charge rates, as
described in an Appendix to this Statement of Additional Information. Certain
special sales charge arrangements are maintained on a daily valuation basis by
Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") or an independent
record keeper that has a contact or special arrangement with Merrill Lynch. If on
the date the plan sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record keeping service
agreement the plan has less than $1 million in assets invested in applicable
investments (other than assets invested in money market funds), than 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 has $1 million or more in assets but less than $5 million in
assets invested in applicable investments (other than assets invested in Class N
shares of the Oppenheimer funds). If on the date the plan sponsor signed the
Merrill Lynch record keeping service agreement the plan has $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
level accounts of a retirement plan. While such compensation may act to reduce
the record keeping fees charged by the retirement plan's record keeper, that
compensation arrangement may be terminated at any time, potentially affecting the
record keeping fees charged by the retirement plan's record keeper.

Cancellation of Purchase Orders. Cancellation of purchase orders for the Funds'
shares (for example, when a purchase check is returned to the Funds unpaid)
causes a loss to be incurred when the net asset values of the Funds' 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 Funds for the loss, the Distributor will do
so. The Funds may reimburse the Distributor for that amount by redeeming shares
from any account registered in that investor's name, or the Funds or the
Distributor may seek other redress.

Classes of Shares. Each class of shares of the Funds represents an interest in
the same portfolio of investments of the Funds. 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 Funds. 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.

      |X|   Class A Shares Subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. Under a
special arrangement with 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 shares 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 "IRS"), 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 Statement of
            Additional Information) which have entered into a special agreement
            with the Distributor for that purpose,
o     to Retirement Plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the
            Internal Revenue Code, the recordkeeper or the plan sponsor for which
            has entered into a special agreement with the Distributor,
o     to Retirement Plans of a plan sponsor where the aggregate assets of all
            such plans invested in the Oppenheimer funds is $500,000 or more,
o     to OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Ascender 401(k) plans that pay for the
            purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class A shares of one or
            more Oppenheimer funds, and
o     to certain customers of broker-dealers and financial advisors that are
            identified in a special agreement between the broker-dealer or
            financial advisor and the Distributor for that purpose.

      The sales concession and the advance of the service fee, as described in
the Prospectus, will not be paid to dealers of record on sales of Class N shares
on:

o     purchases of Class N shares in amounts of $500,000 or more by a retirement
            plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class
            A shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds (other than rollovers from
            an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle or Ascender 401(k) plan to any
            IRA invested in the Oppenheimer funds),
o     purchases of Class N shares in amounts of $500,000 or more by a retirement
            plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class
            C shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds held by the plan for more
            than one year (other than rollovers from an
            OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle or Ascender 401(k) plan to any
            IRA invested in the Oppenheimer funds), and
o     on purchases of Class N shares by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle or
            Ascender 401(k) plan made with the redemption proceeds of Class A
            shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds.

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

      |X|   Allocation of Expenses. Each 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 each 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 a 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 such
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 a Fund account with a share balance valued under $500. The
Minimum Balance Fee is automatically deducted from each such Fund account on or
about the second to last business day of September.

      Listed below are certain cases in which each Fund has elected, in its
discretion, not to assess the Minimum Balance Fee. 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 Class A share 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 (to access account documents
         electronically via eDocs Direct, please visit the Service Center on our
         website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.888.470.0862 for
         instructions);
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, Recordkeeper 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.

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

      Each Fund reserves the authority to modify Fund Account Fees in its
discretion.

Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share. The net asset values per share of
each class of shares of each Fund is 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 a 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 days (for example, in case of weather
emergencies or on days falling before a U.S. holiday). All references to time in
this Statement of Additional Information are to "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 Funds' net asset values will not
be calculated on those days, the Funds' net asset values per share may be
significantly affected on days when shareholders may not purchase or redeem
shares. Additionally, trading on many foreign stock exchanges and in
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 Funds'
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 Board of Directors/Trustees of each
Underlying Fund has established procedures for the valuation of such Underlying
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 as applicable, 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 each Underlying
         Fund's Board of Directors/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 each
         Underlying Fund's Board of Directors/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 funds 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 funds 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 such 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
applicable Board of Directors/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 applicable, 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 a 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 a Fund expires, the Fund has a gain in the amount of the premium.
If a 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 a 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 Funds' custodian bank is not open for
business on a day when the Funds would normally authorize the wire to be made,
which is usually the Funds' 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 Funds are 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 Funds or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which shares of the Funds
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 Funds 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 Funds or
another of the Oppenheimer funds within 90 days of payment of the sales charge,
the shareholder's basis in the shares of the Funds 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." As stated in the Prospectus, payments for shares tendered for
redemption are ordinarily made in cash. However, under certain circumstances, the
Board of Trustees of each Fund may determine that it would be detrimental to the
best interests of the remaining shareholders of the Funds to make payment of a
redemption order wholly or partly in cash. In that case, the Funds may pay the
redemption proceeds in whole or in part by a distribution "in kind" of liquid
securities from the portfolio of the Funds, in lieu of cash. The Funds have
elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under that
rule, the Funds are obligated to redeem shares solely in cash up to the lesser of
$250,000 or 1% of the net assets of the Funds during any 90-day period for any
one shareholder.

      If shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder would generally
receive shares of one or more of the Underlying Funds. Those shares would be
subject to the applicable Underlying Fund's normal fees, sales charges, and
redemption and exchange policies. If a redemption in kind were made in other
types of securities, the shareholder might incur brokerage or other costs in
selling the securities for cash. The Funds will value securities used to pay
redemptions in kind using the same method the Funds and the Underlying Funds use
to value their 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. Each Fund's Board of Trustees has the right to cause the
involuntary redemption of the shares held in any account if the aggregate net
asset value of those shares is less than $500 or such lesser amount as the Board
may fix. The Board will not cause the involuntary redemption of shares in an
account if the aggregate net asset value of such shares has fallen below the
stated minimum solely as a result of market fluctuations. If the Board exercises
this right, it may also fix the requirements for any notice to be given to the
shareholders in question (but not less than 30 days). Alternatively, the Board
may set requirements for the shareholder to increase the investment, or set other
terms and conditions so that the shares would not be involuntarily redeemed.

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

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

Distributions From Retirement Plans. Requests for distributions from
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, 403(b)(7) custodial
plans, 401(k) plans or pension or profit-sharing plans should be addressed to
"Trustee, OppenheimerFunds Retirement Plans," c/o the Transfer Agent at its
address listed in "How To Sell Shares" in the Prospectus or on the back cover of
this Statement of Additional Information. The request must:

      (1)   state the reason for the distribution;
      (2)   state the owner's awareness of tax penalties if the distribution is
            premature; and
      (3)   conform to the requirements of the plan and the Funds' other
            redemption requirements.

      Participants (other than self-employed plan sponsors) in
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored pension or profit-sharing plans with shares of the
Funds 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 Funds,
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 each 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.
Additionally, the order must have been transmitted to and received by the
Distributor prior to its close of business that day (normally 5:00 p.m.).

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

Automatic Withdrawal and Exchange Plans. Investors owning shares of the Funds
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 Funds cannot guarantee receipt of a payment on the date requested. The
Funds reserve 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 Statement of Additional
Information).

      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 Funds 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 exchange a pre-determined amount of shares of the Funds for shares (of
the same class) of other Oppenheimer funds automatically 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 Statement of Additional Information.

      |X|   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 Funds
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 Funds 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 Funds. 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 Funds, 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 Funds. 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 Funds 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 Funds, 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 Funds, 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     Oppenheimer  Institutional  Money  Market Fund only  offers  Class E, Class L
      and Class P shares.
o     Class B and Class C shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are generally
      available only by exchange from the same class of shares of other
      Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k) plans.
o     Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be exchanged
      only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may not be
      acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other Oppenheimer funds
      except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer
      Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M shares.
o     Class A shares of Oppenheimer funds may be exchanged at net asset value for
      shares of certain money market funds offered by the Distributor. Shares of
      certain money market funds purchased without a sales charge may be
      exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge upon
      payment of the sales charge.
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, shareholders

      expiration of the warranty period (8/5/2010).
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II 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 II
      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
      Markets Fund may be acquired by exchange only with a minimum initial
      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 make
      exchanges into the fund with as little as $50.
o     In most cases, shares of Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Value Fund may be
      acquired only by shareholders who currently own shares of that Fund.
o     Oppenheimer Global Value Fund only offers Class A and Class Y shares. Class
      Y shares of that fund may be acquired only by participants in certain group
      retirement plans that have an agreement with the Distributor.


      The Funds may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
time. Although the Funds 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 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. Except,
however, with respect to Class A shares of Oppenheimer Rochester National
Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals acquired prior to October 22, 2007, in
which case the Class A contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on the
acquired shares if they are redeemed within 24 months measured from the beginning
of the calendar month of the initial purchase of the exchanged Class A shares.

o     When Class A shares of Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals and
Rochester Fund Municipals acquired prior to October 22, 2007 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 Funds 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 Funds to be acquired are
purchased on the Redemption Date, but such purchases may be delayed by either
Fund up to five business days if they determine that they would be disadvantaged
by an immediate transfer of the redemption proceeds. The Funds reserve the right,
in their discretion, to refuse any exchange request that may disadvantage them.
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 Funds, the Funds may refuse the request.

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

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

      The different Oppenheimer funds available for exchange have different
investment objectives, policies and risks. A shareholder should assure that the
fund selected is appropriate for his or her investment and should be aware of the
tax consequences of an exchange. For federal income tax purposes, an exchange
transaction is treated as a redemption of shares of one funds 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 Funds, 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 Funds have no fixed dividend rate. 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
Funds' portfolios, and expenses borne by the Funds 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.

      Some of the Underlying Funds have no fixed dividend rate and there can be
no assurance as to the payment of any dividends or the realization of any capital
gains.

      Tax Status of the Funds' Dividends, Distributions and Redemptions of
Shares. The federal tax treatment of the Funds' 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 Funds
and their shareholders.

      The tax discussion in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information is based on tax law in effect on the date of the Prospectus and this
Statement of Additional Information. Those laws and regulations may be changed by
legislative, judicial, or administrative action, sometimes with retroactive
effect. State and local tax treatment of ordinary income dividends and capital
gain dividends from regulated investment companies may differ from the treatment
under the Internal Revenue Code described below. Potential purchasers of shares
of the Funds 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 Funds.

      Generally, the character of the income or capital gains that the Funds
receive from the Underlying Funds will pass through to the Funds' shareholders as
long as the Funds and Underlying Funds continue to qualify as regulated
investment companies. However, short-term capital gains received from the
Underlying Funds will be taxed as ordinary income to the Funds and therefore may
not be offset against long-term capital losses of the Funds and foreign tax
credits or deductions passed through by the Underlying Funds may not "pass
through" to the Funds' shareholders. Additionally, the redemption of Underlying
Fund shares by the Funds may be more frequently characterized as a dividend as
opposed to a sale or exchange of shares under tax rules applicable to
redemptions, thereby resulting in ordinary income without basis offset for the
redeeming Fund rather than capital gain. This will have the effect of increasing
the amount of ordinary income the Funds must distribute to shareholders.

      Qualification as a Regulated Investment Company. The Funds have elected to
be taxed as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As regulated investment companies, the Funds
are not subject to federal income tax on the portion of their 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 they distribute
to shareholders. Qualification as a regulated investment company enables a 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 a Fund (unless 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 a Fund might not meet in a particular year. If a Fund did not
qualify as a regulated investment company, it 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, a 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. Each Fund must also satisfy certain other
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, some of which are described below.
Distributions by a 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, a 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) or certain other income and net income derived from an
interest in qualified publicly traded partnerships, as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code.

      In addition to satisfying the requirements described above, each 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 a Fund's
taxable year, at least 50% of the value of its 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, such Fund must not have invested more than 5% of the value of
its total assets in securities of such issuer and the Fund must not hold more
than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer. No more than 25% of
the value of a Fund's 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), in two or more issuers which the Fund controls and which
are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses or in the securities of
one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code. 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, each 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, such Fund must pay an
excise tax on the amounts not distributed. It is presently anticipated that the
Funds will meet those requirements. To meet this requirement, in certain
circumstances the Funds 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 a 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 Funds anticipate distributing
substantially all of their 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. The tax rate on certain
dividend income and long-term capital gain applicable to non-corporate
shareholders has been reduced for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2009.
Distributions comprised of dividends from domestic corporations and certain
foreign corporations (generally, corporations incorporated in a possession of the
United States, some corporations eligible for treaty benefits under a treaty with
the United States and corporations whose stock is readily tradable on an
established securities market in the United States) are treated as "qualified
dividend income" eligible for taxation at a maximum tax rate of 15% in the hands
of non-corporate shareholders. A certain portion of the Underlying Funds'
dividends when paid to the Funds may be eligible for treatment as qualified
dividend income when paid to noncorporate shareholders of the Funds. In order for
dividends paid by a Fund to be qualified dividend income, the respective
Underlying Fund must meet holding period and certain other requirements with
respect to the dividend-paying stocks in its portfolio, such Fund must meet the
holding period and other requirements with respect to the Underlying Fund shares,
and the non-corporate shareholder must meet holding period and certain other
requirements with respect to the Fund's shares. To the extent that an Underlying
Fund or a Fund engages in securities lending with respect to stock paying
qualified dividend income, the ability to pay qualified dividend income to
shareholders will be limited.

      Special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code govern the eligibility of a
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 a Fund that may qualify for the deduction is limited
to the aggregate amount of qualifying dividends that the Fund derives from
portfolio investments that such 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 a 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 Funds may either retain or distribute to shareholders their net capital
gain for each taxable year. The Funds currently intend to distribute any such
amounts although their ability to do so will depend on whether the Underlying
Funds distribute such gains. If net long term capital gains are distributed and
designated as a capital gain distribution, they will be taxable to shareholders
as 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 distributing Fund before the shareholder acquired his or her
shares.

      If a Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, it will be subject to tax
on it at the 35% corporate tax rate. If a 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 his or her tax return as long-term capital gain, will
receive a refundable tax credit for his/her pro rata share of tax paid by the
respective 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 certain Underlying Funds 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 an Underlying Fund to a reduced rate of, or exemption
from, taxes on such income. The Funds will not be able to pass through certain
foreign tax credits or deductions that would otherwise be available to a
shareholder in an Underlying Fund.

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

      Distributions by the Funds will be treated in the manner described above
regardless of whether the distributions are paid in cash or reinvested in
additional shares of the applicable 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.

      Each 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 a 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 same Fund (including through dividend
reinvestment) 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
applicable 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 paid to stockholders who are nonresident aliens
or foreign entities (which are deemed not "effectively connected income")
generally will be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax under existing provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to foreign individuals and entities
unless a reduced rate of withholding or a withholding exemption is provided under
applicable treaty law. Under the provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of
2004 (the "2004 Tax Act"), dividends derived by a regulated investment company
from short-term capital gains and qualifying net interest income (including
income from original issue discount and market discount) and paid to stockholders
who are nonresident aliens and foreign entities if and to the extent properly
designated as "interest-related dividends" or "short-term capital gain
dividends," generally will not be subject to U.S. withholding tax. Where possible,
the Funds intend to make such designations. Under recent guidance issued by the
IRS, a regulated investment company will generally be allowed to designate the
maximum amount of its qualified dividend income, interest related dividends and
short term capital gain dividends even where the aggregate of the amounts
designated exceeds the amounts of the regulated investment company distributions.
However, in any given tax year, there may be circumstances which would cause a
Fund not to designate the maximum amount of interest-related income or short term
capital gain income eligible for exemption. It is not possible to predict what
portion, if any, of a Fund's distributions will be designated as short-term
capital gains or interest income exempt from withholding in the hands of
nonresident and foreign stockholders.

      The 2004 Tax Act also provides that distributions of a Fund attributable to
gains from sales or exchanges of "U.S. real property interests," as defined in
the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury regulations (including gains on the sale
or exchange of shares in certain "U.S. real property holding corporations," which
may include certain real estate investment trusts among other entities and
certain real estate investment company capital gain dividends) generally will
cause a foreign stockholder to treat such gain as income effectively connected to
a trade or business within the United States, generally subject to tax at the
graduated rates applicable to U.S. stockholders. Such distributions may be
subject to U.S. withholding tax and may require the foreign stockholder to file a
U.S. federal income tax return.

      These provisions generally would apply to distributions with respect to
taxable years of the Funds beginning after December 31, 2004 and before January
1, 2008.

      If the ordinary income dividends from a Fund are effectively connected with
the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign person may claim an
exemption from 30% withholding 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 (in this situation) 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.

      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 Funds, including the applicability of the U.S.
withholding taxes described above.

Dividend Reinvestment in Another Fund. Shareholders of a 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 the Funds' shares may be
exchanged. 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 the Fund on the same basis.

      Additional Information About the Funds

The Distributor. The Funds' 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 Funds'
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 Funds' Transfer Agent, is a
division of the Manager. It is responsible for maintaining the Funds' 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. Citibank, N.A. is the custodian of the Funds' assets. The
custodian's responsibilities include safeguarding and controlling the Funds'
portfolio securities and handling the delivery of such securities to and from the
Funds. It is the practice of the Funds to deal with the custodian in a manner
uninfluenced by any banking relationship the custodian may have with the Manager
and its affiliates. The Funds' 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 Funds. KPMG LLP audits the Funds'
financial statements and performs other related audit services. KPMG LLP also act
as the independent registered public accounting firm for certain other Funds
advised by the Manager and its affiliates. Audit and non-audit services provided
by KPMG LLP to the Funds must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Notes to Financial Statements:

Note 1. Organization

Oppenheimer Transition 2025 Fund, Oppenheimer Transition 2040 Fund, and
Oppenheimer Transition 2050 Fund (collectively, the "Funds", individually a
"Fund"), were each organized as a business trust in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts on November 12, 2007 as a diversified, open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.  Each Fund is a special type of mutual fund known as a "fund of funds"
because it invests in other mutual funds.  Under normal market conditions,
OppenheimerFunds, Inc. ("OFI" or the "Adviser"), the investment manager of each
Fund, will invest the Fund's assets in a diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer
mutual funds (the "Underlying Funds").

The Funds have had no operations through February 8, 2008 other than those
relating to organizational matters and the sale and issuance of shares of
beneficial interest to OFI as noted in the table below:

2050 Fund

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


On February 14, 2008, each Fund's Board of Trustees approved an Investment
Advisory Agreement with OFI and a Distributor's Agreement with OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc. ("OFDI" or the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary of OFI.

Each Fund's investment objective is to seek total return until the target
retirement date included in its name and then seeks income and secondarily
capital growth.

The Funds offer 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 Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without
either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC.










Note 2.  Significant Accounting Policies

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

OFI has directly assumed certain organization and initial offering costs of each
Fund, which are estimated at $77,595 per Fund, and has also agreed to voluntarily
reimburse each Fund for organizational and initial offering costs borne directly
by each Fund, which are estimated at $8,500 per Fund.

Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and
losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares 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.

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

Note 3. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliated Parties

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, OFI will not charge a management fee to
the Funds; however OFI will collect indirect management fees through the
investments in the Underlying Funds.  OFI has voluntarily undertaken to waive
fees and/or reimburse the Funds for certain expenses so that "Total Annual Fund
and Underlying Fund Operating Expenses", as a percentage of average daily net
assets, will not exceed 1.50% for Class A, 2.25% for Class B and Class C, 1.75%
for Class N and 1.25% for Class Y shares.  OFI may modify or terminate that
undertaking at any time.

OppenheimerFunds Services ("OFS"), a division of the Adviser, acts as the
transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Funds.  The Funds will pay OFS a
per account fee.  OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder
servicing agent fees paid directly by each Fund to an annual rate of 0.35% of the
average daily net assets of each class.

OFDI acts as the principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
shares of the Funds.  Each Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares
that 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 up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of
Class A shares of each Fund.  Each Fund has adopted Distribution and Service
Plans for Class B, Class C, and Class N shares.  Under the plans, each 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.










Note 2.  Significant Accounting Policies

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

OFI has directly assumed certain organization and initial offering costs of each
Fund, which are estimated at $77,595 per Fund, and has also agreed to voluntarily
reimburse each Fund for organizational and initial offering costs borne directly
by each Fund, which are estimated at $15,000 per Fund.

Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and
losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares 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.

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

the Funds; however OFI will collect indirect management fees through the
investments in the Underlying Funds.  OFI has voluntarily undertaken to waive fees
and/or reimburse the Funds for certain expenses so that "Total Annual Fund and
Underlying Fund Operating Expenses", as a percentage of average daily net assets,
will not exceed 1.50% for Class A, 2.25% for Class B and Class C, 1.75% for Class
N and 1.25% for Class Y shares.  OFI may modify or terminate that undertaking at
any time.

OppenheimerFunds Services ("OFS"), a division of the Adviser, acts as the
transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Funds.  The Funds will pay OFS a
per account fee.  OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder
servicing agent fees paid directly by each Fund to an annual rate of 0.35% of the
average daily net assets of each class.

OFDI acts as the principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
shares of the Funds.  Each Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares
that 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 up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of
Class A shares of each Fund.  Each Fund has adopted Distribution and Service
Plans for Class B, Class C, and Class N shares.  Under the plans, each 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.

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.

          OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class A
shares(1) of the Oppenheimer funds or the contingent deferred sales charge that
may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.(2)  That is
because of the economies of sales efforts realized by OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., (referred to in this document as the "Distributor"), or by
dealers or other financial institutions that offer those shares to certain
classes of investors. Not all waivers apply to all funds.

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus and
Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds, the term
"Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
          1) plans 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(3)
         4) Group Retirement Plans(4)
         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.

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

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

         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.

            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.

            determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion manager).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

In addition to the waivers set forth in the Prospectus and in this Appendix,
above, the contingent deferred sales charge will be waived for redemptions of
Class A and Class B shares of a Fund and exchanges of Class A or Class B shares
of a Fund into Class A or Class B shares of a Former Connecticut Mutual Fund
provided that the Class A or Class B shares of the Fund to be redeemed or
exchanged were (i) acquired prior to March 18, 1996 or (ii) were acquired by
exchange from an Oppenheimer fund that was a Former Connecticut Mutual Fund.
Additionally, the shares of such Former Connecticut Mutual Fund must have been
purchased prior to March 18, 1996:

   2) upon the disability of a shareholder, as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the
      Internal Revenue Code;

      of the Code, or other employee benefit plans;
4)    as tax-free returns of excess contributions to such retirement or employee
      benefit plans;

      or concession in connection with the purchase of shares of any registered

      procedures set forth in the Fund's Articles of Incorporation, or as adopted
      by the Board of Directors of the Fund.

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

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

None.

Item 25. - Indemnification

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

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


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

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