ABOUT THE FUND

The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

WHAT IS THE  FUND'S  INVESTMENT  OBJECTIVE?  The  Fund  seeks as high a level of
current  interest  income exempt from federal  income taxes as is available from
investing in municipal securities, while attempting to preserve capital.


WHAT DOES THE FUND  MAINLY  INVEST  IN?  The Fund  invests  mainly in  municipal
securities  that pay interest exempt from federal  individual  income tax. These
primarily include municipal bonds (which are long term  obligations),  municipal
notes (short term  obligations),  interests in municipal leases,  and tax-exempt
commercial  paper.  Most of the  securities  the Fund buys  must be  "investment
grade" (the four highest rating categories of national rating organizations such
as Moody's). As a non-fundamental investment policy, the Fund will not invest in
municipal  securities the interest on which (and thus a  proportionate  share of
the exempt-interest  dividends paid by the Fund) would be subject to the Federal
alternative minimum tax on individuals and corporations.


     The Fund  does not  normally  limit  its  investments  to  securities  of a
particular maturity range, but currently focuses on longer-term  securities with
maturities  between 5 and 30 years  when  issued.  This  portfolio  strategy  is
subject to change.  These  investments  are more fully  explained  in "About the
Fund's Investments," below.

HOW DO THE  PORTFOLIO  MANAGERS  DECIDE  WHAT  SECURITIES  TO  BUY OR  SELL?  In
selecting  securities for the Fund, the portfolio  managers look  nationwide for
municipal  securities  using a variety of factors which may change over time and
may vary in particular cases.

The portfolio managers currently look for:

o Municipal securities that provide high current income,

o A wide range of municipal securities to diversify the portfolio,

o Municipal securities having favorable credit characteristics, and

o Special situations that provide opportunities for value.

     The  portfolio  managers may consider  selling a security if one or more of
these factors no longer apply to a security purchased for the Fund.

WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED FOR? The Fund is designed for individual  investors who
are seeking  income  exempt from federal  income  taxes.  The Fund does not seek
capital gains or growth. Because it invests in tax-exempt  securities,  the Fund
is not  appropriate  for  retirement  plan accounts or for investors who want to
pursue capital growth. The Fund is not a complete investment program.

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund

All investments have risks to some degree. The Fund's investments are subject to
changes in their value from a number of factors,  described below. There is also
the  risk  that  poor  security  selection  by the  Fund's  investment  Manager,
OppenheimerFunds, Inc., will cause the Fund to underperform other funds having a
similar  objective.  There  is no  assurance  that  the Fund  will  achieve  its
objective.

CREDIT RISK. Municipal securities are debt securities that are subject to credit
risk. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a municipal  security might not
make interest and principal  payments on the security as they become due. If the
issuer fails to pay  interest,  the Fund's  income might be reduced,  and if the
issuer fails to repay  principal,  the value of that  security and of the Fund's
shares may be reduced.  Because the Fund can invest as much as 25% of its assets
in municipal securities below investment grade to seek higher income, the Fund's
credit  risks are  greater  than those of funds  that buy only  investment-grade
bonds.  A downgrade in an issuer's  credit rating or other adverse news about an
issuer  can  reduce  the  value  of that  issuer's  security.  Special  Risks of
Lower-Grade Securities.  The Fund's credit risks are greater than those of funds
that buy only  investment-grade  securities.  Lower-grade debt securities (these
are sometimes called "junk bonds") may be subject to greater market fluctuations
and greater risks of loss of income and  principal  than  investment-grade  debt
securities. Securities that are (or that have fallen) below investment grade are
exposed to a greater  risk that the issuers of those  securities  might not meet
their debt  obligations.  These risks can reduce the Fund's share prices and the
income it earns.

While  investment  grade  securities  are  subject  to risks of  non-payment  of
interest and principal,  generally,  higher yielding  lower-grade bonds, whether
rated or unrated,  have greater  risks than  investment  grade  securities.  The
market for lower-grade securities may be less liquid, especially during times of
general  economic  distress,  and  therefore  they may be  harder  to sell at an
acceptable price.


INTEREST RATE RISKS.  Municipal  securities are subject to changes in value when
prevailing  interest  rates change.  When  prevailing  interest  rates fall, the
values of already-issued  municipal  securities  generally rise. When prevailing
interest rates rise, the values of already-issued municipal securities generally
fall and the  securities  may sell at a discount  from their  face  amount.  The
magnitude  of these  price  changes is  generally  greater for bonds with longer
maturities.  When the average  maturity of the Fund's  portfolio is longer,  its
share price may fluctuate more if interest rates change. Additionally,  the Fund
can buy variable rate obligations. When interest rates fall, the yields of these
securities  decline.  Callable  bonds the Fund buys are more likely to be called
when interest  rates fall, and the Fund might then have to reinvest the proceeds
of the callable instrument in other securities that have lower yields,  reducing
its  income.  When  interest  rates  fall,  the  income  the  Fund  earns on its
investments, and the Fund's distributions to shareholders, may decline. The Fund
currently  focuses on longer term  securities to seek higher income.  Therefore,
its share prices may fluctuate more when interest rates change.

Tobacco Settlement  Revenue Bonds.  Tobacco settlement revenue bonds are secured
by an issuing state's  proportionate  share in the Master  Settlement  Agreement
("MSA"). The MSA is an agreement,  reached out of court in November 1998 between
46 states and nearly all the U.S. tobacco  manufacturers  (approximately  99% of
the current  combined market share of tobacco  manufacturers).  The MSA provides
for payments  annually by the  manufacturers to the states and  jurisdictions in
perpetuity, in exchange for releasing all claims against the manufacturers and a
pledge of no further litigation.  Tobacco manufacturers pay into a master escrow
trust based on their market share, and each state receives a fixed percentage of
the payment as set forth in the MSA.

A number of states have securitized the future flow of those payments by selling
bonds  pursuant to  indentures,  some  through  distinct  governmental  entities
created for such purpose.  The bonds are backed by the future  revenue flow that
is used for principal and interest payments on the bonds. Annual payments on the
bonds,  and thus risk to the Fund, are highly dependent on the receipt of future
settlement payments to the state or its governmental  entity, as well as several
other factors.  The actual amount of future settlement payments,  therefore,  is
dependent  on many  factors,  including,  but not  limited to,  annual  domestic
cigarette  shipments,   cigarette  consumption,   inflation  and  the  financial
capability of participating  tobacco  companies.  As a result,  payments made by
tobacco  manufacturers  could be negatively  impacted if the decrease in tobacco
consumption is significantly greater than the forecasted decline. A market share
loss by the MSA companies to non-MSA  participating  tobacco manufacturers would
also  cause a  downward  adjustment  in the  payment  amounts.  A  participating
manufacturer filing for bankruptcy also could cause delays or reductions in bond
payments.  The MSA itself has been subject to legal challenges and has, to date,
withstood those challenges.

Borrowing for Leverage.  As a fundamental policy, the Fund can borrow from banks
in amounts up to one-third of its total assets  (including the amount  borrowed)
less all liabilities and indebtedness other than borrowings.  It may also borrow
up to 5% of its total assets for temporary purposes from any person. This use of
"leverage"  will subject the Fund to greater costs than funds that do not borrow
for  leverage,  and may also make the  Fund's  share  price  more  sensitive  to
interest rate changes.  The interest on borrowed  money is an expense that might
reduce the Fund's yield.

Risks of Using  Derivative  Investments.  The Fund can use  derivatives  to seek
increased  returns or to try to hedge  investment  risks.  In general  terms,  a
derivative  investment is an investment  contract  whose value depends on (or is
derived from) the value of an underlying asset, interest rate or index. Options,
futures,  "inverse  floaters"  and  variable  rate  obligations  are examples of
derivatives the Fund may use.

If the issuer of the derivative investment does not pay the amount due, the Fund
can lose money on its investment. Also, the underlying security or investment on
which the derivative is based,  and the derivative  itself,  may not perform the
way the Manager expected it to perform. If that happens,  the Fund will get less
income  than  expected  and its share price  could  decline.  To try to preserve
capital, the Fund has limits on the amount of particular types of derivatives it
can hold.  However,  using derivatives can increase the volatility of the Fund's
share prices.  Also, some  derivatives may be illiquid,  making it difficult for
the Fund to value them or sell them quickly at an acceptable price.

Inverse  Floaters  Have  Special  Risks.  Variable  rate bonds known as "inverse
floaters" pay interest at rates that move in the opposite direction of yields on
short-term bonds in response to market changes.  As interest rates rise, inverse
floaters  produce  less  current  income,  and their  market  value  can  become
volatile.  Inverse  floaters are a type of  "derivative  security."  Some have a
"cap," so that if  interest  rates  rise  above the  "cap,"  the  security  pays
additional  interest income. If rates do not rise above the "cap," the Fund will
have paid an  additional  amount for a feature that proves  worthless.  The Fund
will not invest more than 20% of its total assets in inverse floaters.

HOW RISKY IS THE FUND OVERALL?  The risks described  above  collectively
form the  overall  risk  profile  of the Fund,  and can  affect the value of the
Fund's investments,  its investment  performance,  and the prices of its shares.
Particular  investments and investment  strategies also entail risks. This means
that you can lose money by investing  in the Fund.  When you redeem your shares,
they may be  worth  more or less  than  what  you  paid  for  them.  There is no
assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.  The value of the
Fund's investments in municipal securities will change over time due to a number
of factors. They include changes in general bond market movements, the change in
value of particular  bonds or the income they pay because of an event  affecting
the issuer,  or changes in interest  rates that can affect bond prices  overall.
These changes can affect the value of the Fund's  investments and its prices per
share.  The Fund's  derivative  investments have additional risks that can cause
fluctuations in the Fund's share prices. In the OppenheimerFunds  spectrum,  the
Fund is more  conservative  than some types of taxable bond funds,  such as high
yield bond funds, but has greater risks than money market funds.

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

The Fund's Past Performance

The bar chart and table below show one measure of the risks of  investing in the
Fund, by showing changes in the Fund's performance (for its Class A shares) from
year to year for the last 10  calendar  years  and by  showing  how the  average
annual total returns of the Fund's shares, both before and after taxes,  compare
to those of a  broad-based  market index.  The  after-tax  returns for the other
classes of shares will vary.

The after-tax returns are shown for Class A shares only and are calculated using
the historical  highest  individual  federal marginal income tax rates in effect
during the periods shown, and do not reflect the impact of state or local taxes.
In certain cases, the figure  representing  "Return After Taxes on Distributions
and Sale of Fund  Shares"  may be higher than the other  return  figures for the
same period.  A higher  after-tax return results when a capital loss occurs upon
redemption  and  translates  into an assumed tax  deduction  that  benefits  the
shareholder.  The after-tax returns are calculated based on certain  assumptions
mandated by regulation and your actual  after-tax  returns may differ from those
shown,  depending on your  individual tax situation.  The Fund's past investment
performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the
Fund will perform in the future.


Annual Total Returns (Class A) (as of 12/31 each year)
[See  appendix to  prospectus  for data in bar chart  showing  the annual  total
return]


Sales charges and taxes are not included in the  calculations  of return in this
bar chart, and if those charges and taxes were included, the returns may be less
than those shown.

For  the  period  from  1/1/04  through  6/30/04,  the  cumulative  return  (not
annualized)  before taxes for Class A shares was 0.69%.  During the period shown
in the bar  chart,  the  highest  return  (not  annualized)  before  taxes for a
calendar  quarter was 8.58%  (1Qtr95)  and the lowest  return  (not  annualized)
before taxes for a calendar quarter was -6.51% (1Qtr94).

The Fund's average annual total returns include  applicable  sales charges:  for
Class A, the current  maximum  initial  sales charge of 4.75%;  for Class B, the
contingent  deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year);  and for Class
C, the 1% contingent deferred sales charge for the 1-year period.  Because Class
B  shares  convert  to  Class  A  shares  72  months  after  purchase,  Class  B
"life-of-class"  performance  does not include  any  contingent  deferred  sales
charge and uses Class A performance for the period after conversion. The returns
measure the performance of a hypothetical  account and assume that all dividends
and capital gains  distributions  have been reinvested in additional shares. The
performance  of the  Fund's  Class A  shares  is  compared  to  Lehman  Brothers
Municipal Bond Index,  an unmanaged  index of a broad range of investment  grade
municipal bonds. The index performance includes  reinvestment of income but does
not reflect  transaction costs, fees,  expenses or taxes. The Fund's investments
vary from those in the index.


Fees and Expenses of the Fund


The following  tables are meant to help you understand the fees and expenses you
may pay if you buy and hold  shares  of the Fund.  The Fund  pays a  variety  of
expenses directly for management of its assets, administration,  distribution of
its shares and other  services.  Those expenses are  subtracted  from the Fund's
assets to  calculate  the Fund's net asset  values per share.  All  shareholders
therefore  pay  those  expenses  indirectly.  Shareholders  pay  other  expenses
directly,  such as sales charges and account  transaction  charges.  The numbers
below are based on the Fund's  expenses  during  its fiscal  year ended July 31,
2004.

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

Expenses may vary in future years. "Other Expenses" include transfer agent fees,
custodial  fees,  and  accounting  and legal  expenses  that the Fund pays.  The
transfer agent has made a voluntary undertaking to the Fund to limit its fees to
0.35% of  average  daily  net  assets  per  fiscal  year for all  classes.  That
undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time. The "Other Expenses" in the
table  represent the expenses  incurred  during the prior fiscal year;  transfer
agent fees did not exceed the expense limitation described above.

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

2. Applies to redemptions in first year after purchase.  The contingent deferred
sales charge  gradually  declines  from 5% to 1% in years one through six and is
eliminated after that.

3. Applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase.


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

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




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

     If shares are redeemed:              1 Year               3 Years             5 Years             10 Years

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

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

1. Class B expenses  for years 7 through 10 are based on Class A expenses  since
Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase.


About the Fund's Investments

THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISKS. The allocation of the Fund's
portfolio among  different  types of investments  will vary over time based upon
the  Manager's  evaluation  of economic and market  trends.  Under normal market
conditions,  the  Fund  attempts  to  invest  100% of its  assets  in  municipal
securities.  As a fundamental  policy,  the Fund invests at least 80% of its net
assets (plus borrowings for investment  purposes) in municipal  securities.  The
Fund's  portfolio  might  not  always  include  all of the  different  types  of
investments described below.

     The  Manager  tries to reduce  risks by  carefully  researching  securities
before they are  purchased.  The Fund  attempts to reduce its exposure to market
risks by  diversifying  its  investments,  that is, by not holding a substantial
amount  of  securities  of any  one  issuer  and by not  investing  too  great a
percentage  of the  Fund's  assets in any one  issuer.  However,  changes in the
overall market prices of municipal  securities and the income they pay can occur
at any time.  The yield and share price of the Fund will  change  daily based on
changes  in  interest  rates and market  conditions,  and in  response  to other
economic events. The Statement of Additional  Information contains more detailed
information about the Fund's investment policies and risks.

MUNICIPAL  SECURITIES.  The Fund  buys  municipal  bonds and  notes,  tax-exempt
commercial paper,  certificates of participation in municipal leases,  and other
debt  obligations.  These debt obligations are issued by state  governments,  as
well as their political  subdivisions (such as cities, towns and counties),  and
their agencies and authorities.  The Fund can also buy securities  issued by the
District of Columbia,  any  commonwealths,  territories  or  possessions  of the
United States, or their respective  agencies,  instrumentalities or authorities,
if the interest paid on the security is not subject to federal individual income
tax (in the  opinion of bond  counsel to the issuer at the time the  security is
issued).

What is a Municipal Security?

A municipal security is essentially a loan by the buyer to the issuer of the
security. The issuer promises to pay back the principal amount of the loan
and normally pays interest exempt from federal individual income tax.

     Municipal  securities  are issued to raise money for a variety of public or
private  purposes,  including  financing state or local  governments,  financing
specific  projects or public  facilities.  The Fund can buy both  long-term  and
short-term  municipal  securities.  Long-term securities have a maturity of more
than one  year.  The Fund  currently  focuses  on  longer-term  securities  with
maturities between 5 and 30 years when issued, to seek higher income.

The Fund can buy municipal securities that are "general obligations," secured by
the issuer's  pledge of its full faith,  credit and taxing power for the payment
of principal and interest. Some debt securities,  such as zero coupon securities
may be subject to calls by the issuer to redeem the debt or to prepayment  prior
to their stated maturity.  The Fund can also buy "revenue  obligations," payable
only  from  the  revenues  derived  from  a  particular  facility  or  class  of
facilities,  or a specific excise tax or other revenue source.

o  Municipal  Lease  Obligations.  Municipal  leases are used by state and local
governments to obtain funds to acquire land,  equipment or facilities.  The Fund
can invest in  certificates  of  participation  that  represent a  proportionate
interest in payments made under  municipal  lease  obligations.  Most  municipal
leases, while secured by the leased property, are not general obligations of the
issuing municipality. They often contain "non-appropriation" clauses under which
the municipal government has no obligation to make lease or installment payments
in  future  years  unless  money  is  appropriated  on a  yearly  basis.  If the
government  stops making  payments or  transfers  its payment  obligations  to a
private entity,  the obligation  could lose value or become taxable.  Some lease
obligations might not have an active trading market, making it difficult for the
Fund to sell them quickly at an acceptable price.

Ratings of Municipal  Securities the Fund Buys. Most of the municipal securities
the Fund buys are "investment grade" at the time of purchase.  The Fund does not
invest more than 25% of its total  assets in  municipal  securities  that at the
time of purchase are not  "investment-grade."  The Fund can invest in securities
rated as low as "C" or "D" or which may be in  default at the time the Fund buys
them. While securities rated "Baa" by Moody's or "BBB" by Standard &  Poor's
are considered  "investment grade," they have some speculative  characteristics.
"Investment  grade"  securities  are those rated within the four highest  rating
categories  of Moody's,  Standard  &  Poor's or Fitch or another  nationally
recognized rating organization,  or (if unrated) are judged by the Manager to be
comparable to rated investment grade securities. Rating categories are described
in the  Statement  of  Additional  Information.  A reduction  in the rating of a
security  after  the Fund  buys it will not  automatically  require  the Fund to
dispose of that security. However, the Manager will evaluate those securities to
determine whether to keep them in the Fund's portfolio.

The Manager may rely to some extent on credit  ratings by nationally  recognized
rating  agencies in evaluating  the credit risk of  securities  selected for the
Fund's  portfolio.  It may also use its own research and analysis.  Many factors
affect an issuer's  ability to make timely  payments,  and the credit risks of a
particular security may change over time.

Floating Rate/Variable Rate Obligations. Some municipal securities have variable
or floating  interest  rates.  Variable rates are adjustable at stated  periodic
intervals.  Floating rates are automatically  adjusted  according to a specified
market rate for such investments,  such as the percentage of the prime rate of a
bank, or the 91-day U.S. Treasury Bill rate. These obligations may be secured by
bank letters of credit or other credit support arrangements.

CAN THE FUND'S  INVESTMENT  OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES  CHANGE?  The 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 the
Fund's  outstanding  voting  shares.  The  Fund's  investment   objective  is  a
fundamental policy. Other investment  restrictions that are fundamental policies
are listed in the Statement of Additional  Information.  An investment policy or
technique  is  not  fundamental  unless  this  Prospectus  or the  Statement  of
Additional Information says that it is.

OTHER INVESTMENT  STRATEGIES.  To seek its objective,  the Fund can also use the
investment  techniques and strategies described below. The Fund might not always
use all of them.  These  techniques  involve risks although some are designed to
help reduce overall investment risks.

Other  Derivatives.  The Fund  can  invest  in  derivative  securities  that pay
interest  that depends on the change in value of an underlying  asset,  interest
rate or index.  Options  and  futures  (discussed  below) are also  examples  of
derivatives. The Fund may use derivatives to seek increased returns or to try to
hedge investment  risks.  Examples of external  pricing  mechanisms are interest
rate  swaps,   municipal  bond  indices  or  swap  indices.

Puts and Stand-By  Commitments.  The Fund can acquire "stand-by  commitments" or
"puts" with respect to municipal securities.  The Fund obtains the right to sell
specified  securities at a set price on demand to the issuing  broker-dealer  or
bank. However, this feature may result in a lower interest rate on the security.
The Fund  acquires  stand-by  commitments  or puts  solely to enhance  portfolio
liquidity.

"When-Issued"  and  "Delayed  Delivery"  Transactions.  The  Fund  can  purchase
municipal  securities  on a  "when-issued"  basis and can  purchase or sell such
securities on a "delayed  delivery" basis.  Between the purchase and settlement,
no payment is made for the  security  and no interest  accrues to the buyer from
the investment. There is a risk of loss to the Fund if the value of the security
declines prior to the settlement date.

Borrowing  for  Investment  Leverage.  The Fund  can  borrow  money to  purchase
additional  securities,  a technique referred to as "leverage." As a fundamental
policy,  the Fund's borrowing for investment  purposes must be from banks and is
limited to not more than 331/3% of the Fund's total assets.

Illiquid  Securities.  Investments  may be illiquid  because they do not have an
active  trading  market,  making it  difficult  to value them or dispose of them
promptly at an acceptable  price.  The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its
net assets in illiquid  securities.  The Manager  monitors  holdings of illiquid
securities  on an ongoing  basis to  determine  whether to sell any  holdings to
maintain  adequate  liquidity.  The  Fund  cannot  buy  a  security  that  has a
restriction on its resale.

Hedging.  The Fund can buy and sell futures contracts,  put and call options, or
enter into interest rate swap agreements.  These are all referred to as "hedging
instruments."  The  Fund  does  not  use  hedging  instruments  for  speculative
purposes,  and has  limits  on the use of them.  The Fund  does not use  hedging
instruments  to a substantial  degree and is not required to use them in seeking
its objective.  Hedging involves risks. If the Manager uses a hedging instrument
at the wrong time or judges market conditions incorrectly,  the hedge might fail
and the strategy could reduce the Fund's returns. The Fund could also experience
losses if the prices of its futures and options  positions  were not  correlated
with its other investments or if it could not close out a position because of an
illiquid market for the future or option.

Portfolio Turnover.  The Fund may engage in short-term trading to try to achieve
its objective.  While portfolio  turnover can affect  transaction costs the Fund
pays,  in most  cases  the  Fund  does  not pay  brokerage  commissions  on debt
securities  it buys.  If the  Fund  realizes  capital  gains  when it sells  its
portfolio  investments,  it generally must pay those gains out to  shareholders,
increasing their taxable  distributions.  Increased  portfolio  turnover creates
higher   brokerage  and   transaction   costs  for  the  Fund  (and  may  reduce
performance). The Financial Highlights table at the end of this Prospectus shows
the Fund's portfolio turnover rates during recent prior fiscal years.

Temporary  Defensive  and Interim  Investments.  In times of adverse or unstable
market, political or economic conditions,  the Fund can invest up to 100% of its
total assets in temporary  defensive  investments that are inconsistent with the
Fund's  principal  investment  strategies.  Generally  they would be  short-term
municipal  securities but could be U.S.  government  securities or  highly-rated
corporate debt securities.  The income from some temporary defensive investments
may not be  tax-exempt,  and therefore  when making those  investments  the Fund
might  not  achieve  its  objective.  The  Fund  may  also  hold  cash  and cash
equivalents  pending the  investment of proceeds from the sale of Fund shares or
portfolio securities, or to meet anticipated redemptions of Fund shares.

How the Fund is Managed

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


     The Manager has been an investment  advisor since 1960. The Manager and its
subsidiaries and controlled  affiliates managed more than $155 billion in assets
as of June 30, 2004,  including other Oppenheimer funds with more than 7 million
shareholder accounts.  The Manager is located at Two World Financial Center, 225
Liberty Street,  11th Floor, New York, NY 10281-1008.

Portfolio Manager.  Since July 1, 2002, the Fund has been managed by a portfolio
management team comprised of Ronald Fielding and other investment  professionals
selected from the Manager's Rochester Division.  This portfolio  management team
is primarily  responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio.
Mr.  Fielding is a Senior Vice President of the Manager (since January 1996) and
a Vice  President of the Fund.  Mr.  Fielding  serves in a similar  capacity for
other Oppenheimer funds.

Advisory  Fees.  Under  the  investment  advisory  agreement,  the Fund pays the
Manager an advisory  fee at an annual rate which  declines as the Fund's  assets
grow: 0.60% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets, 0.55% of the
next  $100  million,  0.50% of the next  $200  million,  0.45% of the next  $250
million,  0.40% of the next $250 million, and 0.35% of average annual net assets
over $1 billion.  The Fund's  management fee for its last fiscal year ended July
31, 2004, was 0.53% of average annual net assets for each class of shares.

Pending  Litigation.  Three law suits have been filed as putative derivative and
class action against the Fund's  investment  Manager,  Distributor  and Transfer
Agent,  some of the  Oppenheimer  fund,  including  the  Fund and  Directors  or
Trustees of some of those funds. The complaints  allege that the Manager charged
excessive fees for distribution  and other costs,  improperly used assets of the
funds  in the form of  directed  brokerage  commissions  and  12b-1  fees to pay
brokers to promote sales of Oppenheimer  funds, and failed to properly  disclose
the use of fund assets to make those  payments in  violation  of the  Investment
Company Act and the  Investment  Advisers Act of 1940.  The  complaints  further
allege that by permitting and/or  participating in those actions,  the defendant
Directors  breached  their  fiduciary  duties  to fund  shareholders  under  the
Investment  Company Act and at common law.  Those law suits were filed on August
31, 2004, September 3, 2004, and September 14, 2004, respectively,  in the U. S.
District  Court for the  Southern  District  of New York.  The  complaints  seek
unspecified  compensatory  and  punitive  damages,   rescission  of  the  funds'
investment advisory agreements,  an accounting of all fees paid, and an award of
attorneys' fees and litigation expenses.

The Manager and the  Distributor  believe the claims asserted in these law suits
to be without merit, and intend to defend the suits vigorously.  The Manager and
the  Distributor  do not believe  that the pending  actions are likely to have a
material  adverse  effect  on the  Fund or on their  ability  to  perform  their
respective investment advisory or distribution agreements with the Fund.

ABOUT your account


How to Buy Shares

You can buy shares  several ways, as described  below.  The Fund's  Distributor,
OppenheimerFunds  Distributor,  Inc.,  may  appoint  servicing  agents to accept
purchase (and redemption) orders. The Distributor,  in its sole discretion,  may
reject any purchase  order for the Fund's  shares.

Buying Shares Through Your Dealer. You can buy shares through any dealer, broker
or financial  institution that has a sales agreement with the Distributor.  Your
dealer will place your order with the  Distributor  on your behalf.  A broker or
dealer may charge for that service.


 Buying Shares Through the  Distributor.  Complete an  OppenheimerFunds
 New  Account  Application  and  return  it  with a  check  payable  to
 "OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc." Mail it to P.O. Box 5270, Denver,
 Colorado  80217.  If you don't list a dealer on the  application,  the
 Distributor will act as your agent in buying the shares.  However,  we
 recommend that you discuss your  investment  with a financial  advisor
 before you make a purchase to be sure that the Fund is appropriate for
 you.

 Paying by Federal Funds Wire. Shares purchased through the Distributor
 may be paid for by Federal  Funds  wire.  The  minimum  investment  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.

 Buying Shares Through OppenheimerFunds  AccountLink. With AccountLink,
 you pay for  shares  by  electronic  funds  transfers  from  your bank
 account.  Shares are purchased for your account by a transfer of money
 from your bank  account  through the  Automated  Clearing  House (ACH)
 system.  You can provide those  instructions  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.

Buying Shares Through Asset Builder Plans.  You may purchase  shares of the Fund
automatically  each  month  from  your  account  at a bank  or  other  financial
institution  under an Asset  Builder Plan with  AccountLink.  Details are in the
Asset Builder Application and the Statement of Additional Information.

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

               o 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  subsequent  investments
               (after  making the initial  investment  of $500) for as little as
               $50. For any type of account established under one of these plans
               prior to November 1, 2002, the minimum additional investment will
               remain $25.

               The minimum investment  requirement does not apply to reinvesting
               dividends  from the Fund or  other  Oppenheimer  funds (a list of
               them appears in the Statement of Additional  Information,  or you
               can ask your dealer or call the Transfer  Agent),  or reinvesting
               distributions   from  unit  investment   trusts  that  have  made
               arrangements with the Distributor.

               AT WHAT PRICE ARE SHARES SOLD?  Shares are sold at their offering
               price  which is the net asset  value per share  plus any  initial
               sales charge that applies.  The offering  price that applies to a
               purchase order is based on the next  calculation of the net asset
               value per share that is made after the  Distributor  receives the
               purchase  order at its  offices in  Colorado,  or after any agent
               appointed by the Distributor receives the order.

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

               The net asset value per share for a class of shares on a "regular
               business  day" is  determined by dividing the value of the Fund's
               net assets  attributable to that class by the number of shares of
               that  class  outstanding  on that  day.  To  determine  net asset
               values,  the Fund  assets  are valued  primarily  on the basis of
               current market  quotations.  If market quotations are not readily
               available or do not accurately  reflect fair value for a security
               (in the  Manager's  judgment) or if a  security's  value has been
               materially  affected by events  occurring  after the close of the
               exchange or market on which the security is  principally  traded,
               that  security may be valued by another  method that the Board of
               Directors/Trustees believes accurately reflects the fair value.

               The Board has adopted  valuation  procedures for the Fund and has
               delegated   the   day-to-day   responsibility   for  fair   value
               determinations to the Manager's Valuation  Committee.  Fair value
               determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and
               ratification by the Board at its next scheduled meeting after the
               fair  valuations are determined.  In determining  whether current
               market prices are readily  available  and  reliable,  the Manager
               monitors the  information  it receives in the ordinary  course of
               its investment management responsibilities for significant events
               that it believes  in good faith will affect the market  prices of
               the  securities  of issuers  held by the Fund.  Those may include
               events affecting specific issuers (for example, a halt in trading
               of the securities of an issuer on an exchange  during the trading
               day) or events  affecting  securities  markets  (for  example,  a
               foreign  securities  market  closes  early  because  of a natural
               disaster).

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

               The  Manager  believes  that  foreign  securities  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, in most cases the  Distributor or its designated
               agent must  receive  your order by the time the  Exchange  closes
               that day. If your order is received on a day when the Exchange is
               closed or after it has  closed,  the order will  receive the next
               offering  price that is determined  after your order is received.


Buying Through a Dealer.  If you buy shares  through a dealer,  your dealer must
receive  the  order  by  the  close  of  the  Exchange  and  transmit  it to the
Distributor so that it is received before the Distributor's close of business on
a regular  business  day  (normally  5:00 P.M.) to receive  that day's  offering
price,   unless  your  dealer  has  made  alternative   arrangements   with  the
Distributor.  Otherwise,  the order will receive the next offering price that is
determined.


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


Class A  Shares.  If you  buy  Class  A  shares,  you pay an
initial sales charge (on investments up to $1 million).  The
amount  of that  sales  charge  will vary  depending  on the
amount you invest. The sales charge rates are listed in "How
Can You Buy Class A Shares?" below.

Class B Shares.  If you buy Class B shares,  you pay no sales charge at the time
of purchase,  but you will pay an annual  asset-based  sales charge. If you sell
your shares  within 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.



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

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

     How Long Do You  Expect to Hold Your  Investment?  While  future  financial
     needs cannot be predicted  with  certainty,  knowing how long you expect to
     hold your investment will assist you in selecting the appropriate  class of
     shares.  Because of the effect of  class-based  expenses,  your choice will
     also depend on how much you plan to invest. For example,  the reduced sales
     charges  available  for larger  purchases of Class A shares may, over time,
     offset  the effect of paying an initial  sales  charge on your  investment,
     compared to the effect over time of higher  class-based  expenses on shares
     of Class B or Class C.

o  Investing  for the  Shorter  Term.  While the Fund is meant to be a long-term
investment, if you have a relatively short-term investment horizon (that is, you
plan to hold your  shares for not more than six  years),  you should most likely
invest in Class A or Class C shares rather than Class B shares.  That is because
of the  effect of the Class B  contingent  deferred  sales  charge if you redeem
within six years, as well as the effect of the Class B asset-based  sales charge
on the investment return for that class in the short-term.  Class C shares might
be the  appropriate  choice  (especially for investments of less than $100,000),
because there is no initial sales charge on Class C shares,  and the  contingent
deferred  sales charge does not apply to amounts you sell after holding them one
year.


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


If you invest $1 million or more,  in most cases Class A shares will be the most
advantageous  choice,  no matter  how long you intend to hold your  shares.  The
Distributor  will not accept  purchase  orders of  $100,000  or more for 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.

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 and Class C  shareholders.  Other
     features  may not be  advisable  (because  of the effect of the  contingent
     deferred sales charge) for Class B and Class C 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 and Class C shareholders will be
reduced by the additional  expenses borne by those classes that are not borne by
Class A  shares,  such as the  Class B and  Class  C  asset-based  sales  charge
described  below  and  in  the  Statement  of  Additional   Information.   Also,
checkwriting is not available on accounts subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge.

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

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

     The sales charge varies depending on the amount of your purchase. A portion
of the sales  charge may be retained by the  Distributor  or  allocated  to your
dealer as 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:

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

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

o Right of Accumulation.  To reduce the Class A front-end sales charge under the
rates in the table  above  that  apply to larger  purchases,  you can add to the
amount of your current purchase the value of investments currently being made by
you and your spouse (or  previously  made by you and your spouse and still held)
in Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds (a list is
in the  Statement  of  Additional  Information  under  "How to Buy  Shares - The
Oppenheimer  Funds").  You may not include Class A shares of  Oppenheimer  Money
Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer  Cash Reserves on which you did not pay a sales
charge for this purpose. In totaling your holdings, you may count shares held in
your individual  accounts (including IRAs and 403(b) plans), your joint accounts
with your spouse,  or accounts you or your spouse hold as trustees or custodians
on behalf of your  children  who are minors.  A  fiduciary  can count all shares
purchased for a trust,  estate or other fiduciary  account  (including  employee
benefit plans for the same employer) that has multiple accounts.  To qualify for
this Right of Accumulation,  if you are buying shares directly from the Fund you
must inform the Fund's  Distributor of your eligibility and holdings at the time
of your purchase.  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  (depending  on the way you are
buying  your  shares) a copy of each  account  statement  showing  your  current
holdings of the Fund or other eligible  Oppenheimer funds,  including statements
for  accounts  held by you and your  spouse or in  retirement  plans or trust or
custodial  accounts for minor children as described  above.  The  Distributor or
intermediary  through  which you are buying shares will combine the value of all
your eligible  Oppenheimer fund accounts based on the current offering price per
share to determine what Class A sales charge  breakpoints you may qualify for on
your current purchase.

o Letters of Intent.  You may also reduce the Class A front-end  sales charge on
current  purchases  of shares of the Fund under the rates in the table  above by
submitting  a Letter  of  Intent  to the  Distributor.  A Letter  of Intent is a
written statement of your intention to purchase Class A and/or Class B shares of
the Fund (and other Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money
Market Fund and  Oppenheimer  Cash Reserves) over a 13-month  period.  The total
amount of your intended  purchases of Class A and Class B shares will  determine
the  reduced  sales  charge  rate that will  apply to Class A shares of the Fund
purchased  during  that  period.  You can include  purchases  made up to 90 days
before the date of the Letter.  Submitting  a Letter of Intent does not obligate
you to purchase the specified amount of shares.  You can also apply the Right of
Accumulation to these purchases.

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

Other  Special  Sales  Charge  Arrangements  and  Waivers.   The  Fund  and  the
Distributor  offer other  opportunities to purchase shares without  front-end or
contingent  deferred sales charges under the programs  described below. The Fund
reserves the right to amend or  discontinue  these  programs at any time without
prior notice.

o Dividend  Reinvestment.  Dividends and/or capital gains distributions received
by a shareholder from the Fund may be reinvested in shares of the Fund or any of
the other  Oppenheimer  funds without  sales charge,  at the net asset value per
share in effect on the  payable  date.  You must  notify the  Transfer  Agent in
writing  to elect  this  option  and must have an  existing  account in the fund
selected for reinvestment.

o Exchanges of Shares. Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of certain
other  Oppenheimer  funds at net asset value per share at the time of  exchange,
without  sales  charge,  and shares of the Fund can be  purchased by exchange of
shares of certain  other  Oppenheimer  funds on the same basis.  Please refer to
"How to Exchange  Shares" in this  Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional
Information for more details,  including a discussion of  circumstances in which
sales charges may apply on exchanges.

o Reinvestment  Privilege.  Within six months of a redemption of certain Class A
and Class B shares, the proceeds may be reinvested in Class A shares of the Fund
without sales charge.  This  privilege  applies to redemptions of Class A shares
that were  subject to an initial  sales charge or Class A or Class B shares that
were subject to a contingent  deferred sales charge when redeemed.  The investor
must ask the Transfer Agent for that privilege at the time of  reinvestment  and
must identify the account from which the redemption was made.

o Other  Special  Reductions  and Waivers.  The Fund and the  Distributor  offer
additional  arrangements  to reduce or eliminate  front-end  sales charges or to
waive  contingent  deferred sales charges for certain types of transactions  and
for certain  classes of  investors  (primarily  retirement  plans that  purchase
shares in special  programs  through the  Distributor).  These are  described in
greater detail in Appendix C to the Statement of Additional  Information,  which
is also available on the OppenheimerFunds  website, at  www.oppenheimerfunds.com
(under the hyperlinks "Access Accounts and Services - Investor Service Center").
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 notify the Transfer
Agent  with at the time of  redeeming  shares  for those  waivers  that apply to
contingent deferred sales charges.

Class A Contingent  Deferred  Sales Charge.  There is no initial sales charge on
purchases  of  Class  A  shares  of any one or  more  of the  Oppenheimer  funds
aggregating  $1  million  or  more.  The  Distributor  pays  dealers  of  record
concessions  in an amount  equal to 0.50% of  purchases  of $1  million  or more
(other than purchases by retirement plans, which are not permitted in the Fund).
That concession will not be paid on purchases of shares by exchange or that were
previously subject to a front-end sales charge and dealer concession.

If you redeem any of those shares within an 18 month "holding  period"  measured
from  the  beginning  of the  calendar  month of their  purchase,  a  contingent
deferred  sales charge  (called the "Class A contingent  deferred sales charge")
may be deducted from the redemption proceeds. That sales charge will be equal to
1.0% of the lesser of:

o the aggregate net asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption
(excluding  shares  purchased  by  reinvestment  of  dividends  or capital  gain
distributions); or

o the original net asset value of the redeemed shares.

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

HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS B SHARES?  Class B shares are sold at net asset  value per
share without an initial sales charge.  However,  if Class B shares are redeemed
within six years from the beginning of the calendar month of their  purchase,  a
contingent deferred sales charge will be deducted from the redemption  proceeds.
The  Class  B  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  is paid  to  compensate  the
Distributor for its expenses of providing  distribution-related  services to the
Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares.

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

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

Years Since Beginning of Month in Which Purchase Order      Contingent Deferred Sales Charge on Redemptions in That

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

Automatic Conversion of Class B Shares. Class B shares automatically  convert to
Class A shares 72 months  after  you  purchase  them.  This  conversion  feature
relieves Class B shareholders  of the  asset-based  sales charge that applies to
Class B shares under the Class B Distribution and Service Plan, described below.
The conversion is based on the relative net asset value of the two classes,  and
no sales load or other charge is imposed.  When any Class B shares that you hold
convert,  any other Class B shares that were acquired by  reinvesting  dividends
and  distributions  on the converted shares will also convert to Class A shares.
For further information on the conversion feature and its tax implications,  see
"Class B Conversion" in the Statement of Additional Information.


How Can you Buy Class C Shares?  Class C shares are sold at net asset  value per
share without an initial sales charge.  However,  if Class C shares are redeemed
within a holding period of 12 months from the beginning of the calendar month of
their purchase, a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0% will be deducted from
the redemption proceeds. The Class C contingent deferred sales charge is paid to
compensate the  Distributor  for its expenses of providing  distribution-related
services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class C shares.


DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS.

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
shares.  It reimburses the  Distributor  for a portion of its costs incurred for
services  provided to accounts that hold Class A shares.  Reimbursement  is made
quarterly  at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average  annual net assets of
Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor  currently uses all of those fees to
pay dealers,  brokers,  banks and other  financial  institutions  quarterly  for
providing  personal  service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
hold Class A shares.

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

The  asset-based  sales  charge and service  fees  increase  Class B and Class C
expenses by 1.00% of the net assets per year of the  respective  class.  Because
these fees are paid out of the  Fund's  assets on an  ongoing  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 or  Class C  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 on a quarterly
basis.


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 Class C
asset-based  sales  charge  during  the  first  year  after  Class C shares  are
purchased. See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

Under certain circumstances,  the Distributor will pay the full Class B or Class
C  asset-based  sales charge and the service fee to the dealer  beginning in the
first year after  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,   if  there  is  a  special  agreement  between  the  dealer  and  the
Distributor.  In those  circumstances,  the sales concession will not be paid to
the dealer.

In addition,  the Manager and the Distributor may make  substantial  payments to
dealers or other financial intermediaries and service providers for distribution
and/or shareholder servicing activities,  out of their own resources,  including
the profits from the advisory fees the Manager  receives from the Fund.  Some of
these  distribution-related  payments  may  be  made  to  dealers  or  financial
intermediaries  for marketing,  promotional or related expenses;  these payments
are often referred to as "revenue sharing." In some  circumstances,  those types
of payments may create an incentive  for a dealer or financial  intermediary  or
its  representatives  to  recommend  or  offer  shares  of  the  Fund  or  other
Oppenheimer  funds to its  customers.  You should ask your  dealer or  financial
intermediary for more details about any such payments it receives.

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 in proper form (which means that it must comply with the  procedures
described  below) and is accepted by the Transfer Agent.  The Fund lets you sell
your  shares by  writing a letter,  by wire,  by using the  Fund's  checkwriting
privilege,  or by telephone.  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,  please call the Transfer Agent first, at
1.800.225.5677, for assistance.

Certain Requests Require a Signature Guarantee. To protect you and the Fund from
fraud, the following  redemption  requests must be in writing and must include a
signature  guarantee (although there may be other situations that also require a
signature guarantee):

o You wish to redeem more than $100,000 and receive a check.

o The redemption check is not payable to all shareholders  listed on the account
statement.

o The  redemption  check is not sent to the  address  of record on your  account
statement.

o Shares are being transferred to a Fund account with a different owner or name.

o Shares are being  redeemed  by someone  (such as an  Executor)  other than the
owners.

Where Can You Have Your Signature  Guaranteed?  The Transfer Agent will accept a
guarantee of your signature by a number of financial institutions, including:

a U.S. bank, trust company, credit union or savings association,

a foreign bank that has a U.S. correspondent bank,

a U.S.  registered  dealer or  broker in  securities,  municipal  securities  or
government securities, or

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.

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

Checkwriting.  To write checks against your Fund account, request that privilege
on your account application,  or contact the Transfer Agent for signature cards.
They must be signed  (with a signature  guarantee)  by all owners of the account
and  returned  to the  Transfer  Agent so that checks can be sent to you to use.
Shareholders  with joint  accounts can elect in writing to have checks paid over
the  signature  of one  owner.  If you  previously  signed a  signature  card to
establish  checkwriting in another  Oppenheimer fund, simply call 1.800.225.5677
to request  checkwriting for an account in this Fund with the same  registration
as the other account.

o Checks can be written to the order of whomever you wish, but may not be cashed
at the bank the checks are payable through or the Fund's custodian bank.

o Checkwriting privileges are not available for accounts holding shares that are
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.

o Checks  must be written  for at least $500.  Checks  written  below the stated
amount on the check will not be accepted.  However,  if you have existing checks
indicating a $100 minimum, you may still use them for amounts of $100 or more.

o Checks  cannot be paid if they are written for more than your  account  value.
Remember,  your shares fluctuate in value and you should not write a check close
to the total account value.

o You may not write a check that would  require  the Fund to redeem  shares that
were purchased by check or Asset Builder Plan payments within the prior 10 days.

o Don't use your  checks if you  changed  your Fund  account  number,  until you
receive new checks.


HOW DO you SELL SHARES BY MAIL? Write a letter of instruction that includes:

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 Exchange that day, which is normally 4:00
P.M.,  but may be earlier on some days.  You may not redeem shares under a share
certificate by telephone.

o To  redeem  shares  through  a  service  representative  or  automatically  on
PhoneLink, call 1.800.225.5677.

Whichever  method  you use,  you may  have a check  sent to the  address  on the
account statement, or, if you have linked your Fund account to your bank account
on AccountLink, you may have the proceeds sent to that bank account.

Are There Limits on Amounts Redeemed by Telephone?

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

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

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


CAN YOU SELL SHARES THROUGH your DEALER?  The Distributor has made  arrangements
to repurchase Fund shares from dealers and brokers on behalf of their customers.
Brokers or dealers may charge 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 or Class C  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 C to the  Statement  of  Additional
Information and you advise the Transfer Agent of your eligibility for the waiver
when you place your redemption request.)

     A contingent  deferred  sales charge will be based on the lesser of the net
asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption or the original net
asset value. A contingent deferred sales charge is not imposed on:

the amount of your account value  represented  by an increase in net asset value
over the initial purchase price,

shares   purchased  by  the   reinvestment   of   dividends  or  capital   gains
distributions, or

shares  redeemed in the  special  circumstances  described  in Appendix C to the
Statement of Additional Information.

     To  determine  whether a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  applies to a
redemption, the Fund redeems shares in the following order:

1. shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions,

2. shares held for the holding period that applies to the class, and

3. shares held the longest during the holding period.

     Contingent  deferred sales charges are not charged when you exchange shares
of the Fund for shares of other Oppenheimer funds. However, if you exchange them
within the  applicable  contingent  deferred sales charge  holding  period,  the
holding period will carry over to the fund whose shares you acquire.  Similarly,
if you acquire shares of this Fund by exchanging  shares of another  Oppenheimer
fund that are still  subject  to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  holding
period, that holding period will carry over to this Fund.

How to Exchange Shares

To exchange shares, you must meet several conditions:

o Shares of the fund  selected for exchange  must be available  for sale in your
state of residence.

o The prospectuses of both funds must offer the exchange privilege.

o You must hold the shares you buy when you establish  your account for at least
seven days before you can exchange  them.  After the account is open seven days,
you can exchange shares any regular business day.

o You must meet the minimum purchase  requirements for the fund whose shares you
purchase by exchange.

o Before exchanging into a fund, you must obtain and read its prospectus.


     Shares of a particular  class of the Fund may be exchanged  only for shares
of the same class in the other Oppenheimer funds. For example,  you can exchange
Class A shares of this Fund only for  Class A shares of  another  fund.  In some
cases, sales charges may be imposed on exchange transactions.  For tax purposes,
exchanges  of  shares  involve  a sale of the  shares  of the fund you own and a
purchase of the shares of the other fund,  which may result in a capital gain or
loss.  Please refer to "How to Exchange  Shares" in the  Statement of Additional
Information for more details.

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


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

Written Exchange  Requests.  Submit an  OppenheimerFunds  Exchange Request form,
signed  by all  owners  of the  account.  Send it to the  Transfer  Agent at the
address on the back cover. Exchanges of shares held under certificates cannot be
processed unless the Transfer Agent receives the certificates with the request.

Telephone Exchange  Requests.  Telephone exchange requests may be made either by
calling a service  representative or by using PhoneLink for automated  exchanges
by calling 1.800.225.5677. Telephone exchanges may be made only between accounts
that are  registered  with the same  name(s)  and  address.  Shares  held  under
certificates may not be exchanged by telephone.


ARE THERE  LIMITATIONS  ON EXCHANGES?  There are certain  exchange  policies you
should be aware of:

Shares are redeemed from one fund and are normally purchased from the other fund
in the same  transaction 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 account)  receives an exchange request that conforms to the
policies described above. It must be received by the close of The New York Stock
Exchange that day,  which is normally 4:00 P.M. but may be earlier on some days.
The Transfer Agent may delay the  reinvestment of the proceeds of an exchange up
to seven days if it determines in its discretion that an earlier  transmittal of
the  redemption  proceeds to the receiving fund would be detrimental to the Fund
from which the exchange is made or to the receiving fund.

The interests of the Fund's  shareholders  and the Fund's  ability to manage its
investments may be adversely  affected when its shares are repeatedly  exchanged
over the short  term.  When  large  dollar  amounts  are  involved,  the  Fund's
implementation  of its investment  strategies may be negatively  affected or the
Fund might have to raise or retain more cash than the  portfolio  manager  would
normally retain, to meet unanticipated  redemptions.  Frequent exchange activity
also may force the Fund to sell portfolio securities at disadvantageous times to
raise the cash needed to meet those exchange requests.  These factors might hurt
the Fund's  performance.  When the  Transfer  Agent in its  discretion  believes
frequent  trading  activity  by  any  person,  group  or  account  would  have a
disruptive effect on the Fund's ability to manage its investments,  the Fund and
the Transfer Agent may reject  purchase  orders and/or  exchanges into the Fund.
The history of exchange  activity in all accounts known by the Transfer Agent to
be under common ownership or control within the Oppenheimer funds complex may be
considered  by the  Transfer  Agent,  with  respect to the  review of  exchanges
involving  this Fund as part of the Transfer  Agent's  procedures  to detect and
deter excessive exchange activity.  The Transfer Agent may permit exchanges that
it believes in the  exercise of its judgment  are not  disruptive.  The Transfer
Agent might not be able to detect frequent  exchange  activity  conducted by the
underlying owners of shares held in omnibus accounts, and therefore might not be
able to effectively prevent frequent exchange activity in those accounts.  There
is no  guarantee  that the Transfer  Agent's  controls  and  procedures  will be
successful to identify  investors who engage in excessive trading activity or to
curtail that activity.

As stated above, the Fund permits dealers or financial  intermediaries to submit
exchange  requests on behalf of their customers (unless the customer has revoked
that  authority).  The Manager,  the Distributor  and/or the Transfer Agent have
agreements  with a limited  number of  broker-dealers  and  investment  advisers
permitting  them to submit  exchange  orders in bulk on behalf of their clients,
provided that those  broker-dealers  or advisers agree to  restrictions on their
exchange  activity (which are more stringent than the restrictions that apply to
other  shareholders).  Those  restrictions  include  limitations  on  the  funds
available for exchanges,  the requirement to give advance notice of exchanges to
the  Transfer  Agent,  and  limits on the  amount of client  assets  that may be
invested in a particular  fund.  The Fund and its Transfer Agent may restrict or
refuse bulk exchange requests submitted by a financial intermediary on behalf of
a large number of accounts  (including  pursuant to the  arrangements  described
above) if, in the Transfer Agent's judgment  exercised in its discretion,  those
exchanges would be disruptive to either fund in the exchange transaction.

o The Fund may amend,  suspend or terminate the exchange  privilege at any time.
The Fund may refuse any exchange order and is currently not obligated to provide
notice before rejecting an exchange order.

o If the Transfer Agent cannot  exchange all the shares you request because of a
restriction  cited  above,  only  the  shares  eligible  for  exchange  will  be
exchanged.

Shareholder Account Rules and Policies


More  information  about the Fund's policies and procedures for buying,  selling
and exchanging shares is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.

A $12 annual "Minimum Balance Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a value
of less than $500. The fee is  automatically  deducted from each applicable Fund
account  annually  on or about the  second  to last  "regular  business  day" of
September.  See the Statement of Additional Information  (shareholders may visit
the  OppenheimerFunds  website)  to  learn  how you can  avoid  this fee and for
circumstances under which this fee will not be assessed.

The  offering  of  shares  may be  suspended  during  any  period  in which  the
determination of net asset value is suspended, and the offering may be suspended
by the Board of Trustees at any time the Board believes it is in the Fund's best
interest to do so.

Telephone transaction privileges for purchases,  redemptions or exchanges may be
modified, suspended or terminated by the Fund at any time. The Fund will provide
you notice whenever it is required to do so by applicable law. If an account has
more  than  one  owner,  the  Fund  and  the  Transfer  Agent  may  rely  on the
instructions of any one owner.  Telephone  privileges apply to each owner of the
account  and the  dealer  representative  of record for the  account  unless the
Transfer Agent receives cancellation instructions from an owner of the account.

The Transfer  Agent will record any  telephone  calls to verify data  concerning
transactions  and  has  adopted  other  procedures  to  confirm  that  telephone
instructions  are genuine,  by requiring  callers to provide tax  identification
numbers  and  other  account  data or by  using  PINs,  and by  confirming  such
transactions in writing.  The Transfer Agent and the Fund will not be liable for
losses or expenses arising out of telephone instructions  reasonably believed to
be genuine.

Redemption or transfer  requests  will not be honored  until the Transfer  Agent
receives all required  documents in proper form. From time to time, the Transfer
Agent in its discretion may waive certain of the  requirements  for  redemptions
stated in this Prospectus.

Dealers that perform account  transactions for their clients by participating in
NETWORKING through the National Securities Clearing  Corporation are responsible
for obtaining their clients' permission to perform those  transactions,  and are
responsible  to their  clients  who are  shareholders  of the Fund if the dealer
performs any transaction erroneously or improperly.

The  redemption  price for shares will vary from day to day because the value of
the securities in the Fund's portfolio  fluctuates.  The redemption price, which
is the net asset value per share, will normally differ for each class of shares.
The  redemption  value of your  shares may be more or less than  their  original
cost.

Payment for  redeemed  shares  ordinarily  is made in cash.  It is  forwarded by
check,  or  through  AccountLink  or by Federal  Funds  wire (as  elected by the
shareholder)  within seven days after the  Transfer  Agent  receives  redemption
instructions in proper form. However, under unusual circumstances  determined by
the Securities and Exchange Commission, payment may be delayed or suspended. For
accounts  registered  in the name of a  broker-dealer,  payment will normally be
forwarded within three business days after redemption.


The  Transfer  Agent may delay  processing  any type of  redemption  payment  as
described  under "How to Sell Shares" for recently  purchased  shares,  but only
until the  purchase  payment has  cleared.  That delay may be as much as 10 days
from the date the  shares  were  purchased.  That  delay may be  avoided  if you
purchase  shares by Federal Funds wire or certified  check, or arrange with your
bank to provide  telephone or written  assurance to the Transfer Agent that your
purchase payment has cleared.

     Involuntary  redemptions  of small  accounts may be made by the Fund if the
     account  value has fallen  below $200 for reasons  other than the fact that
     the  market  value  of  shares  has  dropped.  In some  cases,  involuntary
     redemptions  may be made to  repay  the  Distributor  for  losses  from the
     cancellation of share purchase orders.

Shares may be "redeemed in kind" under unusual  circumstances (such as a lack of
liquidity  in the Fund's  portfolio  to meet  redemptions).  This means that the
redemption  proceeds  will  be paid  with  liquid  securities  from  the  Fund's
portfolio.  If the Fund  redeems your shares in kind,  you may bear  transaction
costs  and will  bear  market  risks  until  such  time as such  securities  are
converted into cash.

Federal regulations may require the Fund to obtain your name, your date of birth
(for a natural person),  your  residential  street address or principal place of
business and your Social  Security  Number,  Employer  Identification  Number or
other  government  issued  identification  when you open an account.  Additional
information  may be  required  in  certain  circumstances  or to open  corporate
accounts.  The Fund or the Transfer Agent may use this information to attempt to
verify your  identity.  The Fund may not be able to  establish an account if the
necessary information is not received. The Fund may also place limits on account
transactions  while it is in the process of attempting to verify your  identity.
Additionally,  if the Fund is unable to verify your identity  after your account
is  established,  the Fund may be  required to redeem your shares and close your
account.

"Backup  withholding"  of  federal  income tax may be  applied  against  taxable
dividends,  distributions and redemption proceeds  (including  exchanges) if you
fail to furnish the Fund your  correct,  certified  Social  Security or Employer
Identification  Number when you sign your  application,  or if you  under-report
your income to the Internal Revenue Service.

To avoid sending duplicate copies of materials to households, the Fund will mail
only one copy of each  prospectus,  annual  and  semi-annual  report  and annual
notice of the Fund's  privacy policy to  shareholders  having the same last name
and address on the Fund's records.  The consolidation of these mailings,  called
householding, benefits the Fund through reduced mailing expense.

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

DIVIDENDS.  The Fund intends to declare  dividends  separately for each class of
shares from net  tax-exempt  income  and/or net taxable  investment  income each
regular  business day and to pay those  dividends to  shareholders  monthly on a
date selected by the Board of Trustees.  Daily dividends will not be declared or
paid on  newly-purchased  shares until  Federal  Funds are available to the Fund
from the purchase payment for such shares.


     The Fund attempts to pay  dividends on Class A shares at a constant  level.
There is no  assurance  that it will be able to do so. The Board of Trustees may
change  the  targeted  dividend  level at any  time,  without  prior  notice  to
shareholders.  The amount of those dividends and any other distributions paid on
other classes of shares may vary over time, depending on market conditions,  the
composition of the Fund's portfolio,  and expenses borne by the particular class
of  shares.  Dividends  and  other  distributions  paid on Class A  shares  will
generally  be higher  than  dividends  for  Class B and  Class C  shares,  which
normally have higher  expenses than Class A. The Fund cannot  guarantee  that it
will pay any dividends or other distributions.

Capital  Gains.  Although the Fund does not seek capital  gains,  it may realize
capital  gains  on the sale of  portfolio  securities.  If it does,  it may make
distributions  out of any net short-term or long-term  capital gains in December
of each year.  The Fund may make  supplemental  distributions  of dividends  and
capital gains  following  the end of its fiscal year.  There can be no assurance
that the Fund will pay any capital  gains  distributions  in a particular  year.
Long-term capital gains will be separately identified in the tax information the
Fund sends you after the end of the calendar year.


WHAT  CHOICES  DO YOU  HAVE FOR  RECEIVING  DISTRIBUTIONS?  When  you open  your
account,  specify on your application how you want to receive your dividends and
distributions. You have four options:

Reinvest All  Distributions in the Fund. You can elect to reinvest all dividends
and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the Fund.

Reinvest   Dividends  or  Capital   Gains.   You  can  elect  to  reinvest  some
distributions  (dividends,  short-term  capital gains or long-term capital gains
distributions)  in the Fund while receiving the other types of  distributions by
check or having them sent to your bank account through AccountLink.

Receive  All  Distributions  in Cash.  You can elect to  receive a check for all
dividends and capital gains distributions or have them sent to your bank through
AccountLink.

Reinvest  Your  Distributions  in  Another  OppenheimerFunds  Account.  You  can
reinvest   all   distributions   in  the  same   class  of  shares  of   another
OppenheimerFunds account you have established.


Taxes. Dividends paid from net investment income earned by the Fund on municipal
securities will be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Dividends and capital gains  distributions  may be subject to federal,  state or
local taxes.  Any short-term  capital gain  distributions  are taxable to you as
ordinary income.  Any long-term capital gain distributions are taxable to you as
long-term  capital gains,  no matter how long you have owned shares in the Fund.
The Fund may derive gains in part from municipal  obligations the Fund purchased
below their  principal or face  values.  All, or a portion of these gains may be
taxable to you as  ordinary  income  rather  than  capital  gains.  Whether  you
reinvest your  distributions in additional  shares or take them in cash, the tax
treatment is the same.

     Every  year the Fund  will  send you and the IRS a  statement  showing  the
amount of any taxable  distribution  you received in the previous year. The Fund
will also send you a separate statement summarizing the total distributions paid
by the Fund.

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

     Remember,  There May be Taxes on  Transactions.  Because  the Fund's  share
     prices  fluctuate,  you may have a  capital  gain or loss  when you sell or
     exchange your shares. A capital gain or loss is the difference  between the
     price you paid for the  shares  and the price  you  received  when you sold
     them. Any capital gain is subject to capital gains tax.

Returns of Capital Can Occur. In certain cases,  distributions  made by the Fund
may be  considered  a  non-taxable  return of capital to  shareholders.  If that
occurs, it will be identified in notices to shareholders

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

Financial Highlights


The Financial  Highlights  Table is presented to help you  understand the Fund's
financial  performance  for the past  five  fiscal  years.  Certain  information
reflects  financial  results for a single Fund share.  The total  returns in the
table  represent  the rate that an  investor  would have  earned (or lost) on an
investment   in  the  Fund   (assuming   reinvestment   of  all   dividends  and
distributions).  This  information  has been  audited  by KPMG LLP,  the  Fund's
independent  registered  public  accounting firm,  whose report,  along with the
Fund's  financial  statements,  is  included  in  the  Statement  of  Additional
Information, which is available on request.

ABOUT the fund


Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

The investment  objective,  the principal investment policies and the main risks
of the Fund are  described  in the  Prospectus.  This  Statement  of  Additional
Information contains supplemental information about those policies and the types
of securities that the Fund's investment  manager,  OppenheimerFunds,  Inc. (the
"Manager"),  may select for the Fund. Additional  explanations are also provided
about the strategies the Fund may use to try to achieve its objective.

The Fund's  Investment  Policies.  The Fund does not make  investments  with the
objective of seeking capital growth,  since that would generally be inconsistent
with its goal of seeking tax-exempt income. However, the value of the securities
held by the Fund may be affected by changes in general  interest rates.  Because
the current value of debt securities varies inversely with changes in prevailing
interest rates, if interest rates increased after a security was purchased, that
security  would normally  decline in value.  Conversely,  should  interest rates
decrease after a security was purchased, normally its value would rise.

     However,  those fluctuations in value will not generally result in realized
gains or  losses  to the  Fund  unless  the Fund  sells  the  security  prior to
maturity.  A debt  security held to maturity is redeemable by its issuer at full
principal  value plus  accrued  interest.  The Fund does not  usually  intend to
dispose  of  securities  prior to their  maturity,  but may do so for  liquidity
purposes,  or  because of other  factors  affecting  the  issuer  that cause the
Manager to sell the particular security. In that case, the Fund could experience
a capital gain or loss on the sale.

     There are  variations in the credit quality of municipal  securities,  both
within a particular rating  classification  and between  classifications.  These
variations depend on numerous factors. The yields of municipal securities depend
on a number of factors, including general conditions in the municipal securities
market,  the size of a particular  offering,  the maturity of the obligation and
rating (if any) of the issue.  These  factors are  discussed  in greater  detail
below.

Municipal  Securities.  The types of municipal  securities in which the Fund may
invest are  described in the  Prospectus  under "About the Fund's  Investments."
Municipal  securities  are  generally  classified as general  obligation  bonds,
revenue bonds and notes.  A discussion of the general  characteristics  of these
principal types of municipal securities follows below.

     Municipal  Bonds.  We have classified  longer term municipal  securities as
"municipal bonds." The principal  classifications  of long-term  municipal bonds
are "general  obligation"  and "revenue"  (including  "industrial  development")
bonds. They may have fixed, variable or floating rates of interest, as described
below.

     Some bonds may be  "callable,"  allowing  the issuer to redeem  them before
their maturity date. To protect  bondholders,  callable bonds may be issued with
provisions that prevent them from being called for a period of time.  Typically,
that is 5 to 10 years from the issuance date.  When interest  rates decline,  if
the call protection on a bond has expired, it is more likely that the issuer may
call the bond.  If that occurs,  the Fund might have to reinvest the proceeds of
the called bond in bonds that pay a lower rate of return.

     General  Obligation  Bonds.  The basic security  behind general  obligation
bonds is the issuer's  pledge of its full faith and credit and taxing power,  if
any,  for the  repayment of  principal  and the payment of interest.  Issuers of
general obligation bonds include states,  counties,  cities, towns, and regional
districts.  The proceeds of these  obligations  are used to fund a wide range of
public projects,  including construction or improvement of schools, highways and
roads, and water and sewer systems. The rate of taxes that can be levied for the
payment  of  debt   service  on  these  bonds  may  be  limited  or   unlimited.
Additionally,  there  may  be  limits  as to  the  rate  or  amount  of  special
assessments that can be levied to meet these obligations.


     Revenue Bonds.  The principal  security for a revenue bond is generally the
net revenues  derived from a particular  facility,  group of facilities,  or, in
some cases,  the  proceeds  of a special  excise tax or other  specific  revenue
source,  such as a  state's  or local  government's  proportionate  share of the
Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement.  Revenue bonds are issued to finance a wide
variety of capital  projects.  Examples include  electric,  gas, water and sewer
systems; highways,  bridges, and tunnels; port and airport facilities;  colleges
and universities; and hospitals.


     Although the principal security for these types of bonds may vary from bond
to bond, many provide additional  security in the form of a debt service reserve
fund that may be used to make  principal  and interest  payments on the issuer's
obligations.  Housing  finance  authorities  have  a  wide  range  of  security,
including   partially  or  fully  insured  mortgages,   rent  subsidized  and/or
collateralized  mortgages,  and/or the net revenues from housing or other public
projects.  Some  authorities  provide further  security in the form of a state's
ability (without obligation) to make up deficiencies in the debt service reserve
fund.

     Industrial  Development Bonds.  Industrial development bonds are considered
municipal bonds if the interest paid is exempt from federal income tax. They are
issued by or on behalf of public  authorities to raise money to finance  various
privately operated facilities for business and manufacturing,  housing,  sports,
and pollution control. These bonds may also be used to finance public facilities
such as airports,  mass transit systems,  ports, and parking. The payment of the
principal  and interest on such bonds is dependent  solely on the ability of the
facility's  user to meet its financial  obligations  and the pledge,  if any, of
real and personal property financed by the bond as security for those payments.

     Private Activity Municipal Securities. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the "Tax
Reform Act") reorganized,  as well as amended, the rules governing tax exemption
for  interest  on  certain  types of  municipal  securities.  The Tax Reform Act
generally  did not change the tax  treatment of bonds issued in order to finance
governmental operations. Thus, interest on general obligation bonds issued by or
on  behalf  of state or local  governments,  the  proceeds  of which are used to
finance the operations of such governments, continues to be tax-exempt. However,
the Tax Reform Act  limited  the use of  tax-exempt  bonds for  non-governmental
(private)  purposes.  More  stringent  restrictions  were  placed  on the use of
proceeds of such bonds.  Interest on certain  private  activity bonds is taxable
under the  revised  rules.  There is an  exception  for  "qualified"  tax-exempt
private  activity bonds,  for example,  exempt facility bonds including  certain
industrial  development  bonds,  qualified  mortgage  bonds,  qualified  Section
501(c)(3) bonds, and qualified student loan bonds.

     In addition,  limitations as to the amount of private  activity bonds which
each state may issue were  revised  downward by the Tax Reform  Act,  which will
reduce the supply of such  bonds.  The value of the  Fund's  portfolio  could be
affected if there is a reduction in the availability of such bonds.

     Interest on certain  private  activity  bonds  issued after August 7, 1986,
which  continues  to be  tax-exempt,  will be treated as a tax  preference  item
subject  to the  federal  alternative  minimum  tax  (discussed  below) to which
certain  taxpayers  are  subject.  The Fund may hold  municipal  securities  the
interest  on  which  (and  thus a  proportionate  share  of the  exempt-interest
dividends paid by the Fund) will be subject to the Federal  alternative  minimum
tax on individuals and corporations.

     The term "private business use" means any direct or indirect use in a trade
or  business  carried  on by an  individual  or  entity  other  than a state  or
municipal  governmental unit. Under the private loan restriction,  the amount of
bond proceeds that may be used to make private loans is limited to the lesser of
5% or $5.0 million of the proceeds. Thus, certain issues of municipal securities
could lose their  tax-exempt  status  retroactively  if the issuer fails to meet
certain  requirements as to the expenditure of the proceeds of that issue or the
use of the bond-financed  facility. The Fund makes no independent  investigation
of the users of such bonds or their use of  proceeds  of the bonds.  If the Fund
should hold a bond that loses its tax-exempt status  retroactively,  there might
be  an  adjustment  to  the   tax-exempt   income   previously   distributed  to
shareholders.

     Additionally,  a private  activity bond that would otherwise be a qualified
tax-exempt  private  activity bond will not, under Internal Revenue Code Section
147(a),  be a qualified  bond for any period during which it is held by a person
who is a "substantial user" of the facilities or by a "related person" of such a
substantial user. This "substantial  user" provision applies primarily to exempt
facility bonds,  including industrial  development bonds. The Fund may invest in
industrial  development bonds and other private activity bonds.  Therefore,  the
Fund may not be an appropriate  investment  for entities which are  "substantial
users" (or persons  related to "substantial  users") of such exempt  facilities.
Those entities and persons should consult their tax advisers  before  purchasing
shares of the Fund.

     A  "substantial  user"  of  such  facilities  is  defined  generally  as  a
"non-exempt  person who  regularly  uses part of a facility"  financed  from the
proceeds  of exempt  facility  bonds.  Generally,  an  individual  will not be a
"related  person" under the Internal  Revenue Code unless such individual or the
individual's   immediate  family  (spouse,   brothers,   sisters  and  immediate
descendants)  own directly or indirectly in the aggregate more than 50% in value
of the equity of a corporation or partnership which is a "substantial user" of a
facility financed from the proceeds of exempt facility bonds.

     Municipal Notes.  Municipal securities having a maturity (when the security
is  issued)  of less  than one  year are  generally  known as  municipal  notes.
Municipal  notes  generally are used to provide for short-term  working  capital
needs. Some of the types of municipal notes the Fund can invest in are described
below.


|_| Tax Anticipation Notes. These are issued to finance working capital needs of
municipalities.  Generally,  they are issued in anticipation of various seasonal
tax revenue, such as income, sales, use or other business taxes, and are payable
from these specific future taxes.

|_| Revenue Anticipation Notes. These are notes issued in expectation of receipt
of other types of revenue,  such as Federal  revenues  available  under  Federal
revenue-sharing programs.

|_| Bond  Anticipation  Notes.  Bond  anticipation  notes are  issued to provide
interim financing until long-term financing can be arranged. The long-term bonds
that are issued typically also provide the money for the repayment of the notes.

|_|  Construction  Loan Notes.  These are sold to provide  project  construction
financing until permanent financing can be secured.  After successful completion
and acceptance of the project, it may receive permanent financing through public
agencies, such as the Federal Housing Administration.

|X| Tax Exempt  Commercial Paper.  This type of short-term  obligation  (usually
having a  maturity  of 270 days or less) is  issued  by a  municipality  to meet
current working capital needs.

|X| Municipal  Lease  Obligations.  The Fund's  investments  in municipal  lease
obligations  may be through  certificates of  participation  that are offered to
investors by public  entities.  Municipal leases may take the form of a lease or
an installment purchase contract issued by a state or local government authority
to obtain funds to acquire a wide variety of equipment and facilities.

     Some municipal lease securities may be deemed to be "illiquid"  securities.
Their  purchase  by the Fund would be limited as  described  below in  "Illiquid
Securities."  From  time to time  the Fund may  invest  more  than 5% of its net
assets in municipal  lease  obligations  that the Manager has  determined  to be
liquid under guidelines set by the Board of Trustees.  Those guidelines  require
the Manager to evaluate:

|_| the frequency of trades and price quotations for such securities;

|_| the number of dealers or other potential  buyers willing to purchase or sell
such securities;

|_| the availability of market-makers; and

|_| the nature of the trades for such securities.

     While the Fund holds such  securities,  the Manager will also  evaluate the
likelihood of a continuing market for these securities and their credit quality.

     Municipal   leases  have  special  risk   considerations.   Although  lease
obligations do not constitute general  obligations of the municipality for which
the  municipality's  taxing power is pledged,  a lease  obligation is ordinarily
backed by the  municipality's  covenant to budget for,  appropriate and make the
payments due under the lease  obligation.  However,  certain  lease  obligations
contain  "non-appropriation"  clauses which provide that the municipality has no
obligation to make lease or installment purchase payments in future years unless
money is appropriated  for that purpose on a yearly basis.  While the obligation
might be secured by the lease, it might be difficult to dispose of that property
in case of a default.


     Projects  financed with  certificates  of  participation  generally are not
subject to state constitutional debt limitations or other statutory requirements
that may apply to other municipal  securities.  Payments by the public entity on
the obligation  underlying the certificates  are derived from available  revenue
sources.  That  revenue  might be  diverted  to the  funding of other  municipal
service  projects.  Payments of interest  and/or  principal  with respect to the
certificates  are not  guaranteed and do not constitute an obligation of a state
or any of its political subdivisions.

     In addition to the risk of "non-appropriation,"  municipal lease securities
do not have as highly liquid a market as conventional municipal bonds. Municipal
leases,  like  other  municipal  debt  obligations,  are  subject to the risk of
non-payment of interest or repayment of principal by the issuer.  The ability of
issuers of  municipal  leases to make timely  lease  payments  may be  adversely
affected in general economic downturns and as relative governmental cost burdens
are reallocated among federal,  state and local governmental units. A default in
payment of income would  result in a reduction  of income to the Fund.  It could
also result in a reduction in the value of the municipal lease and that, as well
as a default in  repayment of  principal,  could result in a decrease in the net
asset value of the Fund.

     Ratings of Municipal  Securities.  Ratings by ratings organizations such as
Moody's  Investors  Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's"),  Standard &  Poor's Ratings
Services, a division of the McGraw-Hill  Companies,  Inc. ("S&P") and Fitch,
Inc.  represent the respective rating agency's opinions of the credit quality of
the municipal  securities  they  undertake to rate.  However,  their ratings are
general  opinions and are not guarantees of quality.  Municipal  securities that
have the same maturity, coupon and rating may have different yields, while other
municipal  securities  that have the same  maturity  and  coupon  but  different
ratings may have the same yield.


     Subsequent  to its purchase by the Fund, a municipal  security may cease to
be rated or its rating may be reduced below the minimum required for purchase by
the Fund. Neither event requires the Fund to sell the security,  but the Manager
will consider  such events in  determining  whether the Fund should  continue to
hold the  security.  To the extent that ratings  given by Moody's,  S&P,  or
Fitch, Inc. change as a result of changes in those rating organizations or their
rating systems, the Fund will attempt to use comparable ratings as standards for
investments in accordance with the Fund's investment policies.


     The Fund may buy municipal securities that are "pre-refunded." The issuer's
obligation  to  repay  the   principal   value  of  the  security  is  generally
collateralized with U.S. government securities placed in an escrow account. This
causes the  pre-refunded  security to have essentially the same risks of default
as a AAA-rated security.


     A list of the rating  categories  of Moody's,  S&P and Fitch,  Inc. for
municipal  securities is contained in Appendix A to this Statement of Additional
Information.  Because  the Fund may  purchase  securities  that are  unrated  by
nationally  recognized  rating  organizations,  the  Manager  will  make its own
assessment of the credit  quality of unrated  issues the Fund buys.  The Manager
will use criteria similar to those used by the rating agencies,  and assigning a
rating category to a security that is comparable to what the Manager  believes a
rating agency would assign to that security.  However, the Manager's rating does
not constitute a guarantee of the quality of a particular issue.


     |_| Special Risks of  Lower-Grade  Securities.  Lower grade  securities may
have a higher yield than securities  rated in the higher rating  categories.  In
addition to having a greater risk of default than higher-grade securities, there
may be less of a market for these securities.  As a result they may be harder to
sell at an acceptable  price.  The  additional  risks mean that the Fund may not
receive the anticipated  level of income from these  securities,  and the Fund's
net  asset  value  may be  affected  by  declines  in the  value of  lower-grade
securities.  However,  because the added risk of lower quality  securities might
not be consistent with the Fund's policy of  preservation  of capital,  the Fund
limits its investments in lower quality securities.

     Other Investment Techniques and Strategies.  In seeking its objective,  the
Fund  may from  time to time  employ  the  types of  investment  strategies  and
investments described below.

     Portfolio Turnover. A change in the securities held by the Fund from buying
and selling  investments is known as "portfolio  turnover."  Short-term  trading
increases  the  rate  of  portfolio  turnover  and  could  increase  the  Fund's
transaction  costs.  However,  the Fund ordinarily incurs little or no brokerage
expense because most of the Fund's  portfolio  transactions are principal trades
that do not require payment of brokerage commissions.

     The Fund ordinarily does not trade securities to achieve short-term capital
gains,  because they would not be tax-exempt  income.  To a limited degree,  the
Fund may engage in short-term trading to attempt to take advantage of short-term
market variations. It may also do so to dispose of a portfolio security prior to
its maturity. That might be done if, on the basis of a revised credit evaluation
of the  issuer  or other  considerations,  the Fund  believes  such  disposition
advisable  or it needs to  generate  cash to  satisfy  requests  to redeem  Fund
shares.  In those  cases,  the Fund may  realize a  capital  gain or loss on its
investments.  The Fund's annual portfolio turnover rate normally is not expected
to exceed 100%.

     Floating  Rate  and  Variable  Rate   Obligations.   Variable  rate  demand
obligations  have a demand feature that allows the Fund to tender the obligation
to the issuer or a third party prior to its  maturity.  The tender may be at par
value plus accrued interest, according to the terms of the obligation.


     The  interest  rate on a  floating  rate  demand  note is based on a stated
prevailing  market rate,  such as a bank's prime rate, the 91-day U.S.  Treasury
Bill rate, or some other standard,  and is adjusted automatically each time such
rate is adjusted. The interest rate on a variable rate demand note is also based
on a stated  prevailing  market rate but is adjusted  automatically at specified
intervals of not less than one year. Generally, the changes in the interest rate
on such  securities  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.
The Manager may determine that an unrated  floating rate or variable rate demand
obligation  meets the 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.

     Floating rate and variable rate demand notes 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 not exceeding
one year and upon not more than 30 days' notice. The issuer of that type of note
normally has a corresponding  right in its discretion,  after a given period, to
prepay  the  outstanding  principal  amount of the note plus  accrued  interest.
Generally  the issuer  must  provide a specified  number of days'  notice to the
holder.


     Inverse  Floaters and Other  Derivative  Investments.  Inverse floaters may
offer  relatively high current income,  reflecting the spread between  long-term
and short-term tax exempt  interest  rates. As long as the municipal yield curve
remains  relatively steep and short-term rates remain  relatively low, owners of
inverse  floaters will have the  opportunity  to earn  interest at  above-market
rates because they receive  interest at the higher long-term rates but have paid
for bonds with lower  short-term  rates.  If the yield curve flattens and shifts
upward,  an inverse  floater will lose value more  quickly  than a  conventional
long-term  bond.  The Fund  will  invest  in  inverse  floaters  to seek  higher
tax-exempt  yields than are available from fixed-rate bonds that have comparable
maturities and credit  ratings.  In some cases the holder of an inverse  floater
may have an option to convert the floater to a  fixed-rate  bond,  pursuant to a
"rate-lock option."

     Some inverse  floaters  have a feature  known as an interest  rate "cap" as
part of the terms of the  investment.  Investing in inverse  floaters  that have
interest  rate caps might be part of a  portfolio  strategy to try to maintain a
high current  yield for the Fund when the Fund has invested in inverse  floaters
that  expose  the Fund to the risk of  short-term  interest  rate  fluctuations.
"Embedded"  caps can be used to hedge a portion of the Fund's exposure to rising
interest  rates.  When  interest  rates exceed a  pre-determined  rate,  the cap
generates additional cash flows that offset the decline in interest rates on the
inverse floater,  and the hedge is successful.  However, the Fund bears the risk
that if interest rates do not rise above the pre-determined rate, the cap (which
is purchased for  additional  cost) will not provide  additional  cash flows and
will expire worthless.

     Inverse floaters are a form of derivative investment.  Certain derivatives,
such as options,  futures, indexed securities and entering into swap agreements,
can be used to  increase or decrease  the Fund's  exposure to changing  security
prices,  interest  rates or other  factors that affect the value of  securities.
However,  these  techniques  could result in losses to the Fund,  if the Manager
judges  market  conditions  incorrectly  or  employs  a  strategy  that does not
correlate  well with the Fund's other  investments.  These  techniques can cause
losses if the counterparty does not perform its promises.  An additional risk of
investing in municipal securities that are derivative  investments is that their
market value could be expected to vary to a much greater  extent than the market
value of  municipal  securities  that are not  derivative  investments  but have
similar credit quality, redemption provisions and maturities.

     When-Issued  and  Delayed  Delivery  Transactions.  The Fund  can  purchase
securities on a "when-issued" basis, and may purchase or sell such securities on
a "delayed  delivery"  basis.  "When-issued"  or  "delayed  delivery"  refers to
securities  whose  terms  and  indenture  are  available  and for which a market
exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery.

     When  such  transactions  are  negotiated  the price  (which  is  generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made.  Delivery
and  payment  for the  securities  take  place  at a later  date.  Normally  the
settlement  date is within six months of the  purchase  of  municipal  bonds and
notes.  However,  the Fund may, from time to time, purchase municipal securities
having a settlement  date more than six months and possibly as long as two years
or more after the trade date. The securities are subject to change in value from
market  fluctuation  during the settlement  period. 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 loss to the Fund. No income begins to
accrue  to the  Fund on a  when-issued  security  until  the Fund  receives  the
security at settlement of the trade.

     The Fund will engage in when-issued transactions in order to secure what is
considered  to be an  advantageous  price and yield at the time of entering into
the  obligation.  When the Fund  engages  in  when-issued  or  delayed  delivery
transactions,  it relies on the buyer or seller, as the case may be, to complete
the  transaction.  Their  failure  to do so may  cause  the  Fund  to  lose  the
opportunity   to  obtain  the  security  at  a  price  and  yield  it  considers
advantageous.

     When the 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 for its portfolio or for delivery pursuant to
options  contracts it has entered  into,  and not for the purposes of investment
leverage.  Although  the Fund will enter into  when-issued  or  delayed-delivery
purchase  transactions  to  acquire  securities,  the  Fund  may  dispose  of  a
commitment  prior to settlement.  If the Fund chooses to dispose of the right to
acquire a when-issued  security  prior to its  acquisition  or to dispose of its
right to deliver or receive against a forward commitment, it may incur a gain or
loss.

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

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

     Zero-Coupon  Securities.  The Fund may buy zero-coupon and delayed interest
municipal  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.

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

     Puts and  Standby  Commitments.  When the Fund  buys a  municipal  security
subject to a standby commitment to repurchase the security, the Fund is entitled
to same-day  settlement from the purchaser.  The Fund receives an exercise price
equal to the amortized cost of the underlying security plus any accrued interest
at the  time of  exercise.  A put  purchased  in  conjunction  with a  municipal
security  enables the Fund to sell the  underlying  security  within a specified
period of time at a fixed exercise price.

     The Fund might  purchase a standby  commitment or put separately in cash or
it might  acquire the security  subject to the standby  commitment  or put (at a
price that reflects  that  additional  feature).  The Fund will enter into these
transactions  only with banks and  securities  dealers  that,  in the  Manager's
opinion,  present minimal credit risks.  The Fund's ability to exercise a put or
standby  commitment  will depend on the ability of the bank or dealer to pay for
the  securities if the put or standby  commitment  is exercised.  If the bank or
dealer should default on its  obligation,  the Fund might not be able to recover
all or a  portion  of any  loss  sustained  from  having  to sell  the  security
elsewhere.

     Puts  and  standby  commitments  are not  transferable  by the  Fund.  They
terminate if the Fund sells the underlying  security to a third party.  The Fund
intends to enter into these  arrangements  to  facilitate  portfolio  liquidity,
although  such  arrangements  might  enable  the  Fund to sell a  security  at a
pre-arranged  price that may be higher than the  prevailing  market price at the
time the put or standby commitment is exercised. However, the Fund might refrain
from  exercising  a  put  or  standby   commitment  if  the  exercise  price  is
significantly  higher than the prevailing market price, to avoid imposing a loss
on the seller that could jeopardize the Fund's business  relationships  with the
seller.

     A put or standby commitment  increases the cost of the security and reduces
the yield otherwise  available from the security.  Any consideration paid by the
Fund for the put or standby  commitment will be reflected on the Fund's books as
unrealized  depreciation  while the put or  standby  commitment  is held,  and a
realized  gain or loss  when the put or  commitment  is  exercised  or  expires.
Interest income received by the Fund from municipal  securities  subject to puts
or stand-by  commitments may not qualify as tax exempt in its hands if the terms
of the put or  stand-by  commitment  cause the Fund not to be treated as the tax
owner of the underlying municipal securities.

     Repurchase   Agreements.   The  Fund  may  acquire  securities  subject  to
repurchase  agreements.  It may 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.  In a
repurchase  transaction,  the Fund acquires 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 a primary
dealer in government  securities,  which meet the credit requirements set by the
Manager from time to time.


     The majority of these  transactions run from day to day.  Delivery pursuant
to  resale  typically  will  occur  within  one to five  days  of the  purchase.
Repurchase  agreements  having a maturity  beyond  seven days are subject to the
Fund's limits on holding illiquid  investments.  There is no limit on the amount
of the Fund's assets that may be subject to repurchase  agreements of seven days
or less.  They must meet credit  requirements  set by the  Manager  from time to
time.


     Repurchase agreements,  considered "loans" under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 (the  "Investment  Company Act"), are  collateralized  by the underlying
security.  The Fund's repurchase  agreements require that at all times while the
repurchase  agreement is in effect,  the collateral's value must equal or exceed
the  repurchase  price to fully  collateralize  the  repayment  obligation.  The
Manager will monitor the vendor's creditworthiness to confirm that the vendor is
financially sound and will continuously monitor the collateral's value. However,
if the vendor fails to pay the resale price on the delivery  date,  the Fund may
incur costs in disposing of the collateral and may experience losses if there is
any delay in its ability to do so.


     Pursuant  to an  Exemptive  Order  issued by the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"),  the Fund, along with other affiliated  entities managed
by the Manager,  may transfer  uninvested  cash  balances into one or more joint
repurchase  accounts.  These  balances  are  invested in one or more  repurchase
agreements,  secured  by  U.S.  government  securities.  Securities  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 of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

     Illiquid  Securities.  The Fund has  percentage  limitations  that apply to
purchases  of  illiquid  securities,  as stated in the  Prospectus.  The  Fund's
fundamental  policies  prohibit it from purchasing any restricted  security that
would require registration with the SEC before it could be sold publicly.


     Loans of Portfolio Securities. To attempt to raise income or raise cash for
liquidity  purposes,  the Fund may lend its  portfolio  securities  to  brokers,
dealers and other  financial  institutions.  These loans are limited to not more
than 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets.  The Fund  presently  does not
intend to engage in loans of securities  that will exceed 5% of the value of the
Fund's total assets in the coming year.  Income from  securities  loans does not
constitute   exempt-interest   income  for  the  purpose  of  paying  tax-exempt
dividends.

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

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

     Borrowing  for  Leverage.   The  Investment  Company  Act  imposes  certain
restrictions on the borrowing  activities of mutual funds.  The  restrictions on
borrowing are designed to protect shareholders and their investment in a fund by
limiting a fund's  ability to leverage its assets.  Leverage  exists when a fund
has the right to a return on an  investment  that  exceeds  the  amount the fund
contributed  to the  investment.  Borrowing  money to make an  investment  is an
example  of how a fund  leverages  its  assets.  The  use  of  leverage  exposes
shareholders  and their  investments  in a fund to a greater  risk of loss.  For
example,  borrowing  may cause the value of a fund's  shares to be more volatile
than if the fund did not borrow.  The Fund's  borrowing  policy is a fundamental
investment  policy.  Currently,  under the Investment Company Act, a mutual fund
may  borrow  only from  banks  and the  maximum  amount  it may  borrow is up to
one-third  of  its  total  assets  (including  the  amount  borrowed)  less  all
liabilities and indebtedness  other than borrowing.  The Fund may also 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.

     The Fund will pay interest on these loans,  and that interest  expense will
raise the  overall  expenses  of the Fund and  reduce  its  returns.  If it does
borrow,  its expenses will be greater than  comparable  funds that do not borrow
for  leverage.  The interest on a loan might be more (or less) than the yield on
the securities  purchased with the loan proceeds.  Additionally,  the Fund's net
asset  value  per share  might  fluctuate  more  than that of funds  that do not
borrow.

     Hedging. The Fund may use hedging to attempt to protect against declines in
the market value of its portfolio, to permit the Fund to retain unrealized gains
in the value of portfolio  securities  that have  appreciated,  or to facilitate
selling securities for investment reasons. To do so the Fund may:

     |_| sell interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures,

     |_| buy puts on such futures or securities, or

     |_|  write  covered  calls  on  securities,  broadly-based  municipal  bond
indices,  interest rate futures or municipal bond index  futures.  Covered calls
may also be written on debt securities to attempt to increase the Fund's income,
but that income would not be tax-exempt.  Therefore it is unlikely that the Fund
would write covered calls for that purpose.

     The  Fund  may  also  use  hedging  to  establish  a  position  in the debt
securities  market as a temporary  substitute  for  purchasing  individual  debt
securities. In that case the Fund will normally seek to purchase the securities,
and then terminate  that hedging  position.  For this type of hedging,  the Fund
may:

              buy interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures, or
              buy calls on such futures or on securities.

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


     Futures.  The Fund  may buy and sell  futures  contracts  relating  to debt
securities  (these are called  "interest  rate  futures"),  on individual  stock
("single  stock  futures") and municipal  bond indices (these are referred to as
"municipal bond index futures").


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


     A "municipal bond index" assigns  relative values to the municipal bonds in
the index, and is used as the basis for trading long-term municipal bond futures
contracts.  Municipal  bond index  futures are similar to interest  rate futures
except that  settlement is made only in cash. The obligation  under the contract
may also be satisfied by entering into an offsetting  contract.  The  strategies
which the Fund  employs in using  municipal  bond index  futures  are similar to
those with regard to interest rate futures.

     Upon  entering  into a futures  transaction,  the Fund will be  required to
deposit an initial margin payment in cash or U.S. government securities with the
futures commission merchant (the "futures broker"). Initial margin payments will
be deposited  with the Fund's  custodian  bank in an account  registered  in the
futures  broker's  name.  However,  the  futures  broker can gain access to that
account  only under  certain  specified  conditions.  As the future is marked to
market (that is, its value on the Fund's books is changed) to reflect changes in
its market value,  subsequent margin payments,  called variation margin, will be
paid to or by the futures broker daily.

     At any time prior to the  expiration  of the future,  the Fund may elect to
close out its  position  by taking an  opposite  position  at which time a final
determination  of variation margin is made and additional cash is required to be
paid by or released to the Fund.  Any gain or loss is then  realized by the Fund
on the future for tax  purposes.  Although  interest rate futures by their terms
call for  settlement  by the  delivery  of debt  securities,  in most  cases the
obligation  is fulfilled  without such  delivery by entering  into an offsetting
transaction.  All futures  transactions  are effected  through a clearing  house
associated with the exchange on which the contracts are traded.

     The Fund may  concurrently  buy and sell  futures  contracts  in a strategy
anticipating  that the future the Fund  purchased  will perform  better than the
future the Fund sold. For example, the Fund might buy municipal bond futures and
concurrently  sell U.S.  Treasury Bond futures (a type of interest rate future).
The Fund would benefit if municipal bonds  outperform  U.S.  Treasury Bonds on a
duration-adjusted basis.

     Duration is a volatility  measure  that refers to the  expected  percentage
change in the value of a bond resulting from a change in general  interest rates
(measured  by each 1%  change  in the rates on U.S.  Treasury  securities).  For
example,  if a bond has an effective  duration of three years,  a 1% increase in
general  interest  rates  would be  expected  to cause  the value of the bond to
decline about 3%. There are risks that this type of futures strategy will not be
successful.  U.S.  Treasury  bonds might perform  better on a  duration-adjusted
basis than municipal  bonds,  and the assumptions  about duration that were used
might be incorrect (in this case,  the duration of municipal  bonds  relative to
U.S. Treasury Bonds might have been greater than anticipated).

     Put and  Call  Options.  The Fund  may buy and  sell  certain  kinds of put
options (puts) and call options (calls). These strategies are described below.

Writing  Covered Call Options.  The Fund may write (that is, sell) call options.
The Fund's call writing is subject to a number of restrictions:

(1) After the Fund writes a call,  not more than 25% of the Fund's  total assets
may be subject to calls.

(2) Calls the Fund sells must be listed on a securities or commodities  exchange
or quoted on NASDAQ, the automated  quotation system of The NASDAQ Stock Market,
Inc. or traded in the over-the-counter market.

(3) Each call the Fund writes must be "covered"  while it is  outstanding.  That
means the Fund must own the investment on which the call was written.

(4) The Fund may write calls on futures contracts whether or not it owns them.

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

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


     When the Fund writes an over-the-counter ("OTC") option, it will enter into
an  arrangement  with a primary  U.S.  Government  securities  dealer which will
establish  a formula  price at which the Fund  will have the  absolute  right to
repurchase  that OTC option.  The formula  price would  generally  be based on a
multiple of the premium  received  for the option,  plus the amount by which the
option is exercisable  below the market price of the  underlying  security (that
is, the option is  "in-the-money").  When the Fund writes an OTC option, it will
treat as illiquid (for purposes of its  restriction on illiquid  securities) the
mark-to-market  value of any OTC option held by it, unless the option is subject
to a buy-back  agreement by the executing broker.  The SEC is evaluating whether
OTC options  should be considered  liquid  securities.  The procedure  described
above could be affected by the outcome of that evaluation.


     To terminate its obligation on a call it has written, the Fund may purchase
a corresponding  call in a "closing  purchase  transaction."  The Fund will then
realize a profit or loss,  depending  upon  whether the net of the amount of the
option transaction costs and the premium received on the call the Fund wrote was
more or less  than the  price of the call the Fund  purchased  to close  out the
transaction.  A profit  may also be  realized  if the call  lapses  unexercised,
because the Fund retains the underlying investment and the premium received. Any
such profits are considered  short-term  capital gains for Federal tax purposes,
as are premiums on lapsed calls.  When  distributed by the Fund they are taxable
as ordinary income.

     The Fund may also  write  calls on  futures  contracts  without  owning the
futures contract or securities  deliverable under the contract. To do so, at the
time the call is written,  the Fund must cover the call by segregating in escrow
an equivalent dollar value of liquid assets. The Fund will segregate  additional
liquid  assets if the  value of the  escrowed  assets  drops  below  100% of the
current  value  of  the  future.  Because  of  this  escrow  requirement,  in no
circumstances  would the Fund's receipt of an exercise  notice as to that future
put the Fund in a "short" futures position.

     Purchasing  Puts and  Calls.  The Fund may buy  calls  only on  securities,
broadly-based municipal bond indices,  municipal bond index futures and interest
rate  futures.  It may also buy  calls to close  out a call it has  written,  as
discussed  above.  Calls  the  Fund  buys  must be  listed  on a  securities  or
commodities  exchange,  or quoted on NASDAQ,  or traded in the  over-the-counter
market.  A call or put option must not be purchased if the purchase  would cause
the  value of all the  Fund's  put and call  options  to  exceed 5% of its total
assets.

     When  the  Fund  purchases  a  call  (other  than  in  a  closing  purchase
transaction),  it pays a premium. For calls on securities that the Fund buys, it
has the right to buy the underlying  investment from a seller of a corresponding
call on the same  investment  during the call period at a fixed exercise  price.
The Fund  benefits  only if (1) the call is sold at a profit  or (2) the call is
exercised when the market price of the underlying investment is above the sum of
the exercise price plus the transaction  costs and premium paid for the call. If
the call is not either  exercised or sold (whether or not at a profit),  it will
become  worthless at its  expiration  date.  In that case the Fund will lose its
premium payment and the right to purchase the underlying investment.

     Calls on municipal  bond indices,  interest rate futures and municipal bond
index  futures  are settled in cash rather  than by  delivering  the  underlying
investment.  Gain or loss depends on changes in the  securities  included in the
index in question  (and thus on price  movements in the debt  securities  market
generally) rather than on changes in price of the individual futures contract.

     The Fund may buy only those puts that  relate to  securities  that the Fund
owns,  broadly-based  municipal  bond indices,  municipal  bond index futures or
interest rate futures  (whether or not the Fund owns the futures).  The Fund may
not sell puts other than puts it has previously purchased.

     When the Fund  purchases  a put,  it pays a premium.  The Fund then has the
right to sell the underlying  investment to a seller of a  corresponding  put on
the same  investment  during the put period at a fixed exercise  price.  Puts on
municipal  bond  indices are settled in cash.  Buying a put on a debt  security,
interest rate future or municipal  bond index future the Fund owns enables it to
protect  itself  during  the put  period  against a decline  in the value of the
underlying  investment  below the  exercise  price.  If the market  price of the
underlying  investment  is equal to or above the exercise  price and as a result
the put is not  exercised  or  resold,  the put  will  become  worthless  at its
expiration  date.  In that case the Fund will lose its  premium  payment and the
right to sell the underlying  investment.  A put may be sold prior to expiration
(whether or not at a profit).

     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 Fund's returns.  The Fund could
also experience  losses if the prices of its futures and options  positions were
not correlated with its other investments.

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

     The Fund may 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. Such commissions may be higher on a relative
basis than the  commissions  for  direct  purchases  or sales of the  underlying
investments. Premiums paid for options are small in relation to the market value
of the underlying  investments.  Consequently,  put and call options offer large
amounts of leverage.  The leverage offered by trading in options could result in
the Fund's net asset value being more  sensitive  to changes in the value of the
underlying investment.

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

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

     The risk of  imperfect  correlation  increases  as the  composition  of the
Fund's portfolio diverges from the securities  included in the applicable index.
To compensate  for the imperfect  correlation  of movements in the price of debt
securities  being hedged and movements in the price of the hedging  instruments,
the Fund may use hedging  instruments in a greater dollar amount than the dollar
amount  of debt  securities  being  hedged.  It  might  do so if the  historical
volatility of the prices of the debt securities being hedged is greater 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 natures of those markets.  All
participants   in  the  futures  markets  are  subject  to  margin  deposit  and
maintenance   requirements.   Rather  than  meeting  additional  margin  deposit
requirements,  investors  may close out  futures  contracts  through  offsetting
transactions  which could distort the normal  relationship  between the cash and
futures markets. From the point of view of speculators, the deposit requirements
in the  futures  markets  are  less  onerous  than  margin  requirements  in the
securities  markets.  Therefore,  increased  participation by speculators in the
futures markets may cause temporary price distortions.

     The Fund  may use  hedging  instruments  to  establish  a  position  in the
municipal  securities  markets as a  temporary  substitute  for the  purchase of
individual  securities  (long  hedging).  It is  possible  that the  market  may
decline.  If the Fund then concludes not to invest in such securities because of
concerns that there may be further market decline or for other reasons, the Fund
will realize a loss on the hedging instruments that is not offset by a reduction
in the purchase price of the securities.

     An  option  position  may be  closed  out  only on a market  that  provides
secondary  trading for options of the same series.  There is no assurance that a
liquid  secondary market will exist for a particular  option.  If the Fund could
not effect a closing  purchase  transaction due to a lack of a market,  it would
have to hold the callable investment until the call lapsed or was exercised, and
could experience losses.

     Interest Rate Swap  Transactions.  In an interest  rate swap,  the Fund and
another  party  exchange  their  right to  receive  or their  obligation  to pay
interest on a security.  For example,  they may swap a right to receive floating
rate  payments  for fixed  rate  payments.  The Fund  enters  into swaps only on
securities it owns.  The Fund may not enter into swaps with respect to more than
25% of its total assets.  Also, the Fund will  segregate  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. Income from interest rate swaps may be taxable.

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

     The Fund will enter into swap transactions with appropriate  counterparties
pursuant to master netting agreements.  A master netting agreement provides that
all swaps done between the Fund and that counterparty under the master agreement
shall be regarded as parts of an integral agreement.  If on any date amounts are
payable under one or more swap transactions, the net amount payable on that date
shall be paid. In addition, the master netting agreement may provide that if one
party  defaults  generally or on one swap,  the  counterparty  may terminate the
swaps with that party.  Under master netting  agreements,  if there is a default
resulting  in a loss to one  party,  that  party's  damages  are  calculated  by
reference to the average cost of a  replacement  swap with respect to 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| Regulatory Aspects of Hedging  Instruments.  The Commodities Futures Trading
Commission (the "CFTC")  recently  eliminated  limitations on futures trading by
certain  regulated  entities  including  registered   investment  companies  and
consequently  registered  investment  companies may engage in unlimited  futures
transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund claims an exclusion from
regulation as a commodity pool operator.  The Fund has claimed such an exclusion
from registration as a commodity pool operator under the Commodity  Exchange Act
("CEA").  The Fund may use futures  and  options  for  hedging  and  non-hedging
purposes to the extent consistent with its investment  objective,  internal risk
management  guidelines  adopted by the Fund's investment advisor (as they may be
amended from time to time), and as otherwise set forth in the Fund's  prospectus
or this statement of additional information.


     Transactions in options by the Fund are subject to limitations  established
by the option exchanges.  The exchanges limit the maximum number of options that
may be  written or held by a single  investor  or group of  investors  acting in
concert.  Those limits apply  regardless  of whether the options were written or
purchased  on the  same  or  different  exchanges,  or are  held  in one or more
accounts  or through  one or more  different  exchanges  or through  one or more
brokers.  Thus,  the  number of  options  that the Fund may write or hold may be
affected  by  options  written  or  held  by  other  entities,  including  other
investment  companies having the same adviser as the Fund (or an adviser that is
an affiliate of the Fund's  adviser).  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  interpretations  of staff  members of the SEC  regarding  applicable
provisions of the  Investment  Company Act, when the Fund  purchases an interest
rate future or municipal  bond index 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 its custodian bank.


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

     Interfund Borrowing.  The Fund will not borrow from affiliated funds unless
the terms of the  borrowing  arrangement  are at least as favorable as the terms
the Fund could  otherwise  negotiate with a third party. To assure that the Fund
will  not be  disadvantaged  by  borrowing  from  an  affiliated  fund,  certain
safeguards  are being  implemented.  Examples  of these  safeguards  include the
following:

o the Fund will not borrow money from affiliated  funds unless the interest rate
is more favorable than available bank loan rates;

o the  Fund's  borrowing  from  affiliated  funds  must be  consistent  with its
investment objective and investment policies;

o the loan rates will be the average of the overnight  repurchase agreement rate
available through the OppenheimerFunds  joint repurchase agreement account and a
pre-established   formula  based  on  quotations  from   independent   banks  to
approximate  the lowest  interest rate at which bank loans would be available to
the Fund;

o if the Fund has  outstanding  borrowings  from all sources greater than 10% of
its  total  assets,  then the  Fund  must  secure  each  additional  outstanding
interfund loan by segregating liquid assets of the Fund as collateral;

o the Fund cannot borrow from an affiliated  fund in excess of 125% of its total
redemptions for the preceding seven days;

o each interfund loan may be repaid on any day by the Fund; and

o the Trustees  will be provided  with a report of all  interfund  loans and the
Trustees   will  monitor  all  such   borrowings   to  ensure  that  the  Fund's
participation is appropriate.

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

     Interfund  Lending.  To assure that the Fund will not be  disadvantaged  by
making loans to affiliated  funds,  certain  safeguards  are being  implemented.
Examples of these safeguards include the following:

o the Fund will not lend money to  affiliated  funds unless the interest rate on
such loan is determined to be reasonable under the circumstances;

o the Fund may not make interfund loans in excess of 15% of its net assets;

o an interfund loan to any one affiliated fund shall not exceed 5% of the Fund's
net assets;

o an interfund loan may not be outstanding for more than seven days;

o each interfund loan may be called on one business day's notice; and

o the  Manager  will  provide  the  Trustees  reports  on  all  interfund  loans
demonstrating that the Fund's  participation is appropriate and that the loan is
consistent with its investment objectives and policies.

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


     Temporary  Defensive and Interim  Investments.  The securities the Fund may
invest in for temporary defensive purposes include the following:

|_| short-term municipal securities;

|_| obligations  issued or guaranteed by the U.S.  Government or its agencies or
instrumentalities;

|_|  corporate  debt  securities  rated  within  the three  highest  grades by a
nationally recognized rating agency;

|_|  commercial  paper  rated "A-1" by S&P,  or a  comparable  rating by another
nationally recognized rating agency; and

|_| certificates of deposit of domestic banks with assets of $1 billion or more.

     Taxable Investments.  While the Fund can invest up to 20% of its net assets
in  investments  that  generate  income  subject  to income  taxes,  it does not
anticipate  investing  substantial  amounts of its assets in taxable investments
under normal market  conditions or as part of its normal trading  strategies and
policies. To the extent it invests in taxable securities,  the Fund would not be
able to met its objective of providing  tax exempt  income to its  shareholders.
Taxable  investments  include,  for  example,  hedging  instruments,  repurchase
agreements,  and the  types of  securities  the  Fund  would  buy for  temporary
defensive purposes.

         Investment Restrictions

          What  Are  "Fundamental  Policies?"  Fundamental  policies  are  those
     policies  that the Fund has adopted to govern its  investments  that can be
     changed only by the vote of a "majority" of the Fund's  outstanding  voting
     securities.  Under the  Investment  Company Act, such a "majority"  vote is
     defined as the vote of the holders of the lesser of:

|_| 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

|_| more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

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


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

|_| The Fund  cannot  invest  in  securities  or other  investments  other  than
municipal  securities,  the temporary  investments  described in its Prospectus,
repurchase agreements,  covered calls, private activity municipal securities and
hedging  instruments  described  in "About the Fund" in the  Prospectus  or this
Statement of Additional Information.

|_| The Fund cannot make loans,  except to the extent  permitted  under the 1940
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.

|_| The Fund may not borrow money, except to the extent permitted under the 1940
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.

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

|_| The Fund cannot invest 25% or more of its total assets in any 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. Nor does that limit apply to municipal securities in general.

|_| The Fund cannot  invest in real estate,  physical  commodities  or commodity
contracts,  except to the  extent  permitted  under  the 1940 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.


The Fund cannot issue any bonds, debentures or senior equity securities.

|X| Does the Fund Have Additional Non-Fundamental Policies?

          The Fund currently has an operating policy (which is not a fundamental
     policy but will not be changed without the approval of a shareholder  vote)
     that  prohibits  the Fund from issuing  senior  securities.  However,  that
     policy does not  prohibit  certain  activities  that are  permitted  by the
     Fund's other policies, including borrowing,  entering into delayed-delivery
     and when-issued  arrangements for portfolio  securities  transactions,  and
     entering into contracts to buy or sell  derivatives,  hedging  instruments,
     options, futures and the related margin,  collateral or escrow arrangements
     permitted under its other investment policies.


|_| The Fund  cannot  invest  more  than 10% of its net  assets in  illiquid  or
restricted securities (including repurchase agreements maturing beyond seven (7)
days).

|_| The Fund cannot invest in securities of other investment  companies,  except
to the extent permitted under the 1940 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. Also, the Fund cannot invest in the securities
of other registered investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in
reliance  on  sub-paragraph  (F) or (G) of section  12(d)(1)  of the  Investment
Company Act of 1940. The Fund would be permitted under this policy to invest its
assets in the securities of one or more open-end management investment companies
for which the Manager,  one of its  affiliates or a successor is the  investment
advisor or sub-advisor.  That fund must have  substantially the same fundamental
investment objective, policies and limitations as the Fund.

|_| The Fund will not invest in municipal  securities the interest on which (and
thus a proportionate  share of the  exempt-interest  dividends paid by the Fund)
would be subject to the  Federal  alternative  minimum  tax on  individuals  and
corporations.

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


Diversification.  The  Fund  intends  to be  "diversified"  as  defined  in  the
Investment  Company Act and to satisfy the  restrictions  against  investing too
much of its assets in any "issuer" as set forth in the  restrictions  above.  In
implementing  this  policy,  the  identification  of the  issuer of a  municipal
security  depends on the terms and  conditions of the security.  When the assets
and  revenues  of an  agency,  authority,  instrumentality  or  other  political
subdivision  are  separate  from  those of the  government  creating  it and the
security is backed only by the assets and revenues of the  subdivision,  agency,
authority or instrumentality,  the latter would be deemed to be the sole issuer.
Similarly,  if an industrial  development  bond is backed only by the assets and
revenues of the non-governmental  user, then that user would be deemed to be the
sole issuer.  However,  if in either case the creating  government or some other
entity  guarantees  a security,  the  guarantee  would be  considered a separate
security and would be treated as an issue of such government or other entity.

Applying the Restriction Against  Concentration.  To implement its policy not to
concentrate its investments,  the Fund has adopted the industry  classifications
set forth in  Appendix B to this  Statement  of  Additional  Information.  Those
industry classifications are not a fundamental policy.

          In implementing  the Fund's policy not to concentrate its investments,
     the Manager will consider a non-governmental user of facilities financed by
     industrial  development  bonds as being in a particular  industry.  That is
     done even though the bonds are municipal  securities,  as to which the Fund
     has  no  concentration   limitation.   Although  this  application  of  the
     concentration  restriction is not a fundamental policy of the Fund, it will
     not be changed without shareholder approval.

          The Manager has no present intention of investing more than 25% of the
     total  assets of the Fund in  securities  of  issuers  located  in the same
     state, or in securities  paying  interest  derived from revenues of similar
     types of projects. Neither of these is a fundamental policy, and therefore,
     either of them may be changed without shareholder approval. Should any such
     change  occur,   the   Prospectus   and/or  this  Statement  of  Additional
     Information will be supplemented or revised to reflect the change.

How the Fund Is Managed


Organization  and  History.  The  Fund is an  open-end,  diversified  management
investment  company with an unlimited number of authorized  shares of beneficial
interest.  The Fund was  originally  incorporated  in  Maryland  in 1976 but was
reorganized  in 1987 as a  Massachusetts  business  trust.  Prior to November 7,
2003, it was named "Oppenheimer Municipal Bond Fund".

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

The Fund  currently has three classes of shares:  Class A, Class B, Class C. All
classes invest in the same investment portfolio. Each class of shares:

o has its own dividends and distributions,

o pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes,

o may have a different net asset value,

o may have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one class are
different from interests

of another class, and

o votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

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


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

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


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

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

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


          The Board of Trustees has an Audit Committee, a Regulatory & Oversight
     Committee,  a  Governance  Committee  and  a  Proxy  Committee.  The  Audit
     Committee is comprised solely of Independent  Trustees.  The members of the
     Audit  Committee  are Joel  Motley  (Chairman),  Edward V.  Regan,  Kenneth
     Randall and Mary Miller.  The Audit  Committee  held 6 meetings  during the
     Fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2004.  The Audit  Committee  provides the
     Board  with   recommendations   regarding   the  selection  of  the  Fund's
     independent  registered  public  accounting  firm. The Audit Committee also
     reviews the scope and results of audits and the audit fees charged, reviews
     reports  from the Fund's  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm
     concerning  the Fund's  internal  accounting  procedures,  and controls and
     reviews reports of the Manager's  internal  auditor,  among other duties as
     set forth in the Committee's charter.

     The members of the Regulatory & Oversight Committee are Robert G. Galli
(Chairman),  Joel Motley and Phillip Griffiths.  The Regulatory &  Oversight
Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2004. The
Regulatory &  Oversight  Committee evaluates and reports to the Board on the
Fund's  contractual   arrangements,   including  the  Investment   Advisory  and
Distribution  Agreements,   transfer  and  shareholder  service  agreements  and
custodian  agreements as well as the policies and procedures adopted by the Fund
to comply with the Investment  Company Act and other applicable law, among other
duties as set forth in the Committee's charter.

     The members of the Governance  Committee are Phillip Griffiths  (Chairman),
Kenneth  Randall and Russell S. Reynolds,  Jr. The  Governance  Committee held 5
meetings  during the Fund's  fiscal  year ended July 31,  2004.  The  Governance
Committee reviews the Fund's governance  guidelines,  the adequacy of the Fund's
Codes  of  Ethics,  and  develops   qualification  criteria  for  Board  members
consistent with the Fund's governance  guidelines,  among other duties set forth
in the Committee's charter.

     The members of the Proxy Committee are Edward V. Regan (Chairman),  Russell
S. Reynolds Jr. and John V. Murphy.  The Proxy  Committee  held 1 meeting during
the Fund's  fiscal year ended July 31, 2004.  The Proxy  Committee  provides the
Board with  recommendations  for proxy voting and  monitors  proxy voting by the
Fund.

     Trustees  and  Officers  of the Fund.  Except for Mr.  Murphy,  each of the
Trustees is an  "Independent  Trustee"  under the  Investment  Company  Act. Mr.
Murphy is an "Interested  Trustee," because he is affiliated with the Manager by
virtue of his  positions  as an officer and  director of the  Manager,  and as a
shareholder of its parent company.

     The Fund's Trustees and officers and their positions held with the Fund and
length of  service  in such  position(s)  and their  principal  occupations  and
business  affiliations during the past five years are listed in the chart below.
The information for the Trustees also includes the dollar range of shares of the
Fund as well as the aggregate dollar range of shares  beneficially  owned in any
of the Oppenheimer funds overseen by the Trustees.  All of the Trustees are also
trustees or  directors  of the  following  publicly  offered  Oppenheimer  funds
(referred to as "Board I Funds"):

Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals                 Oppenheimer Global Fund
Oppenheimer AMT-Free New York Municipals        Oppenheimer Global Opportunities
                                                        Fund
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund           Oppenheimer Gold & Special

Oppenheimer Discovery Fund                      Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income
                                                        Trust
Oppenheimer Emerging Growth Fund                Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal
                                                        Trust
Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund          Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund                   Oppenheimer U.S. Government Trust

                                                                                                                     ---

     In addition to being a trustee or director of the Board I Funds,  Mr. Galli
is also a director  or trustee of 10 other  portfolios  in the  OppenheimerFunds
complex.  Present or former  officers,  directors,  trustees and employees  (and
their immediate family members) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates, and
retirement  plans  established  by them for their  employees  are  permitted  to
purchase Class A shares of the Fund and the other Oppenheimer funds at net asset
value without  sales  charge.  The sales charges on Class A shares is waived for
that  group  because  of  the  economies  of  sales  efforts   realized  by  the
Distributor.

     Messrs. Fielding,  Murphy, Petersen,  Vandahey,  Vottiero, Wixted and Zack,
and Mses. Bloomberg, Ives and Lee respectively hold the same offices with one or
more of the other  Board I Funds as with the Fund.  As of August 30,  2004,  the
Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group,  owned of record or  beneficially
less than 1% of each class of shares of the Fund.  The foregoing  statement does
not  reflect  ownership  of shares  of the Fund  held of  record by an  employee
benefit plan for  employees of the Manager,  other than the shares  beneficially
owned under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above. In addition, each
Independent  Trustee,  and his or her family  members,  do not own securities of
either the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or any person directly or
indirectly  controlling,  controlled by or under common control with the Manager
or Distributor.

     |X|  Affiliated  Transactions  and  Material  Business  Relationships.  Mr.
Reynolds has reported he has a controlling  interest in The Directorship  Group,
Inc. ("The Directorship Search Group"), a director recruiting firm that provided
consulting  services to  Massachusetts  Mutual  Life  Insurance  Company  (which
controls the Manager) for fees of $137,500 for calendar year ended  December 31,
2002. Mr. Reynolds  reported that The Directorship  Search Group did not provide
consulting  services to Massachusetts  Mutual Life Insurance  Company during the
calendar year ended  December 31, 2003,  and does not expect to provide any such
services in the calendar year ended December 31, 2004.


     The Independent  Trustees have unanimously  (except for Mr.  Reynolds,  who
abstained) determined that the consulting  arrangements between The Directorship
Search Group and  Massachusetts  Mutual Life Insurance Company were not material
business or  professional  relationships  that would  compromise  Mr.  Reynolds'
status  as an  Independent  Trustee.  Nonetheless,  to  assure  certainty  as to
determinations  of the Board and the  Independent  Trustees  as to matters  upon
which the Investment  Company Act or the rules thereunder  require approval by a
majority of Independent Trustees,  Mr. Reynolds will not be counted for purposes
of determining whether a quorum of Independent Trustees was present or whether a
majority of Independent Trustees approved the matter.

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

Vice Chairman

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

Messrs.  Levy and Lipstein and Ms. Moynihan retired as Trustees from the Board I
Funds effective January 1, 2003, March 31, 2003 and July 31, 2003, respectively.
Ms. Moynihan  received $208 aggregate  compensation  from the Fund. For calendar
year 2003,  Messrs Levy and Lipstein and Ms.  Moynihan  each  received  $43,425,
$75,076 and $88,229  respectively  from all of the  Oppenheimer  funds for which
they served as Trustee.

1. Aggregate Compensation From Fund includes fees and deferred compensation,  if
any, for a Trustee.

2. Estimated Annual Retirement Benefits to be Paid Upon Retirement is based on a
straight  life payment plan  election  with the  assumption  that a Trustee will
retire at the age of 75 and is  eligible  (after 7 years of  service) to receive
retirement  plan  benefits  as  described  below  under   "Retirement  Plan  for
Trustees."

3. Includes $849 deferred by Mr.  Yeutter under the Deferred  Compensation  Plan
described below.

4. Includes  $36,990  estimated to be paid to Mr. Galli for serving as a trustee
or director of 10 other Oppenheimer funds that are not Board I Funds.

5.  Includes  $96,000 paid to Mr. Galli for serving as trustee or director of 10
other Oppenheimer funds that are not Board I Funds.

6. Includes  $2,549 deferred by Mr.  Griffiths  under the Deferred  Compensation
Plan described below.

7. Includes $1,074 deferred by Mr. Motley under the Deferred  Compensation  Plan
described below.

8. The amount for Mr.  Spiro is based on the  assumption  that he will retire at
age 82 when he becomes  eligible to receive  retirement  plan benefits  (after 7
years of service).

|X| Retirement  Plan for Trustees.  The Fund has 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 trustee for any
of the  Board I Funds  for at least  seven  years in  order to be  eligible  for
retirement plan benefits and must serve for at least 15 years to be eligible for
the maximum  benefit.  Each  Trustee's  retirement  benefits  will depend on the
amount of the Trustee's future compensation and length of service.

|X| Deferred Compensation Plan for Trustees. The Board of Trustees has adopted a
Deferred  Compensation 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 the Fund. 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 Fund's assets,  liabilities or net income per share.  The plan will not
     obligate  the Fund to retain  the  services  of any  Trustee  or to pay any
     particular  level of  compensation  to any  Trustee.  Pursuant  to an Order
     issued by the SEC, the Fund may invest in the funds selected by the Trustee
     under the plan  without  shareholder  approval  for the limited  purpose of
     determining the value of the Trustee's deferred fee account.

     |X| Major  Shareholders.  As of August 30, 2004, the only persons who owned
     of record or was known by the Fund to own of record 5% or more of any class
     of the Fund's outstanding shares were:

     Merrill  Lynch  Pierce  Fenner & Smith,  Inc.  for the Sole  Benefit of its
     Customers,  4800 Deer  Lake  Drive  East,  Floor 3,  Jacksonville,  Florida
     32246-6484,   which  owned   250,026.311   Class  B  shares   (representing
     approximately 5.11% of the Fund's then outstanding Class B) and 203,944.742
     Class  C  shares  (representing  approximately  6.70%  of the  Fund's  then
     outstanding Class C).

     Citigroup  Global  Markets  Inc.,  333  West  34th  Street,  New  York,  NY
     10001-2483,   which  owned   203,915.846   Class  C  shares   (representing
     approximately 6.70% of the Fund's then outstanding Class C).

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

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

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

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

     o The Fund votes with the  recommendation  of the  issuer's  management  on
     routine matters,  including  election of directors  nominated by management
     and ratification of auditors, unless circumstances indicate otherwise.

     o In  general,  the  Fund  opposes  anti-takeover  proposals  and  supports
     elimination of anti-takeover proposals, absent unusual circumstances.

     o The Fund supports  shareholder  proposals to reduce a super-majority vote
     requirement,  and opposes management proposals to add a super-majority vote
     requirement.

     o The Fund opposes proposals to classify the board of directors.

     o The Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.

     o The Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options.

      o The Fund generally  considers  executive  compensation  questions such as
     stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary  business  activity.  The
     Fund analyzes  stock option  plans,  paying  particular  attention to their
     dilutive effect.  While the Fund generally supports  management  proposals,
     the Fund opposes plans it considers to be excessive.

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


     |X| The Investment  Advisory  Agreement.  The Manager  provides  investment
advisory  and  management  services  to the Fund  under an  investment  advisory
agreement  between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager selects  securities for
the  Fund's  portfolio  and  handles  its day-to day  business.  That  agreement
requires the Manager,  at its expense,  to provide the Fund with adequate office
space,  facilities  and  equipment.  It also requires the Manager to provide and
supervise the activities of all  administrative  and clerical personnel required
to   provide   effective   corporate   administration   for  the   Fund.   Those
responsibilities include the compilation and maintenance of records with respect
to the Fund's operations,  the preparation and filing of specified reports,  and
the  composition of proxy materials and  registration  statements for continuous
public sale of shares of the Fund.

     The Fund pays  expenses  not  expressly  assumed by the  Manager  under the
advisory agreement. The investment advisory agreement lists examples of expenses
paid by the  Fund.  The major  categories  relate to  interest,  taxes,  fees to
Independent  Trustees,  legal and audit  expenses,  custodian and transfer agent
expenses,  share  issuance  costs,  certain  printing  and  registration  costs,
brokerage commissions,  and non-recurring  expenses,  including litigation cost.
The management  fees paid by the Fund to the Manager are calculated at the rates
described  in the  Prospectus,  which are applied to the assets of the Fund as a
whole.  The fees are  allocated  to each class of shares based upon the relative
proportion of the Fund's net assets  represented  by that class.  The management
fees paid by the Fund to the  Manager  during  its last three  fiscal  years are
listed below.

                                                       Management Fees
                                                       Paid to
                                                       OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
 Fiscal Year ended 7/31:



      2002                                                  $3,282,631



     2003                                                  $3,140,001



     2004                                                  $3,424,188




     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 for its obligations and duties under the investment  advisory
agreement,  the  Manager is not liable  for any loss the Fund  sustains  for any
investment, adoption of any investment policy or the purchase, sale or retention
of any security.

     The  agreement  permits  the Manager to act as  investment  advisor for any
other  person,  firm  or  corporation  and  to use  the  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 Fund's right to use the name
"Oppenheimer" as part of its name.

     During  the  period  January  1, 2002 to  October  31,  2003,  the  Manager
voluntarily  agreed to waive  advisory  fees at an annual rate equal to 0.05% of
the  Fund's  average  daily  net  assets  until  the  Fund's  trailing  one year
performance  percentile at the end of the preceding  calendar  quarter is in the
third  quintile  or better of the Fund's  Lipper  peer  group.  This  waiver was
voluntary and was terminated when the Fund's relative performance improved.  The
waiver of $53,402 in  management  fees did not  affect the fund  expense  ratios
(when rounded to the nearest  basis  point).  Had this waiver not been in effect
during any portion of the Fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, the Fund would
have paid $3,477,590 in management fees.

     |X| Annual Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement.  Each year, the Board
of  Trustees  including a majority  of the  Independent  Trustees is required to
approve the renewal of the investment advisory agreement. The Investment Company
Act requires  that the Board  request and evaluate and the Manager  provide such
information  as may  be  reasonably  necessary  to  evaluate  the  terms  of the
investment  advisory agreement.  The Board employs an independent  consultant to
prepare a report that provides such  information  as the Board requests for this
purpose.

     The Board also receives  information about the 12b-1  distribution fees the
Fund pays. These distribution fees are reviewed and approved at a different time
of the year.

     The Board reviewed the foregoing information in arriving at its decision to
renew  the  investment  advisory  agreement.  Among  other  factors,  the  Board
considered:

     o The nature,  cost,  and quality of the services  provided to the Fund and
its shareholders;

     o The profitability of the Fund to the Manager;

     o The  investment  performance  of the Fund in comparison to regular market
     indices

     o Economies of scale that may be available to the Fund from the Manager;

     o Fees paid by other mutual funds for similar services;

     o The value and quality of any other  benefits or services  received by the
     Fund from its relationship with the Manager, and

     o  The  direct  and  indirect   benefits  the  Manager  received  from  its
     relationship  with  the  Fund.  These  included  services  provided  by the
     Distributor  and  the  Transfer  Agent,   and  brokerage  and  soft  dollar
     arrangements  permissible  under Section 28(e) of the  Securities  Exchange
     Act.

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

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


          After  careful  deliberation,  the Board,  including  the  Independent
     Trustees,  concluded  that it was in the best interest of  shareholders  to
     continue the investment advisory agreement for another year. In arriving at
     a decision, the Board did not single out any one factor or group of factors
     as being more  important  than other  factors,  but  considered all factors
     together.  The Board  judged  the terms and  conditions  of the  investment
     advisory agreement,  including the investment advisory fee, in light of all
     of the surrounding circumstances.


Brokerage Policies of the Fund


     Brokerage  Provisions  of the  Investment  Advisory  Agreement.  One of the
     duties of the Manager under the investment advisory agreement is to buy and
     sell portfolio  securities for the Fund. The investment  advisory agreement
     allows the  Manager to use  broker-dealers  to effect the Fund's  portfolio
     transactions. The Manager is authorized by the advisory agreement to employ
     broker-dealers,  including,  as that  term  is  defined  in the  Investment
     Company Act) that,  in the Manager's  best  judgment  based on all relevant
     factors, will implement the Fund's policy to obtain, at reasonable expense,
     the "best execution" of portfolio transactions.  "Best execution" refers to
     prompt and reliable  execution at the most favorable price obtainable.  The
     Manager need not seek competitive commission bidding.  However, the Manager
     is expected to minimize the commissions paid to the extent  consistent with
     the  interest  and  policies  of the Fund as  established  by its  Board of
     Trustees.

          Under the  investment  advisory  agreement,  in  choosing  brokers  to
     execute portfolio transactions for the Fund, the Manager may select brokers
     (other than affiliates) that provide  brokerage and/or research services to
     the Fund 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.

          Subject to those considerations,  as a factor in selecting brokers for
     the Fund's portfolio  transactions,  the investment advisory agreement also
     permits  the  Manager  to  consider  sales of  shares of the Fund and other
     investment  companies  for  which the  Manager  or an  affiliate  serves as
     investment   adviser.   Notwithstanding   that  authority,   and  with  the
     concurrence of the Fund's Board, the Manager has determined not to consider
     sales of shares of the Fund and other  investment  companies  for which the
     Manager  or an  affiliate  serves  as  investment  adviser  as a factor  in
     selecting  brokers  for the Fund's  portfolio  transactions.  However,  the
     Manager may continue to effect portfolio  transactions  through brokers who
     sell shares of the Fund.


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

          Most   securities   purchases  made  by  the  Fund  are  in  principal
     transactions  at net  prices.  The Fund  usually  deals  directly  with the
     selling or purchasing  principal or market maker without  incurring charges
     for the  services of a broker on its behalf  unless the Manager  determines
     that a better price or execution may be obtained by using the services of a
     broker.  Therefore,  the Fund does not incur  substantial  brokerage costs.
     Portfolio  securities  purchased from underwriters  include a commission or
     concession  paid by the  issuer  to the  underwriter  in the  price  of the
     security.  Portfolio  securities  purchased  from dealers  include a spread
     between the bid and asked price.


          The Fund  seeks to  obtain  prompt  execution  of  orders  at the most
     favorable net prices.  In an option  transaction,  the Fund ordinarily uses
     the same broker for the purchase or sale of the option and any  transaction
     in the investment to which the option  relates.  Other funds advised by the
     Manager have  investment  objectives  and policies  similar to those of the
     Fund.  Those other funds may  purchase or sell the same  securities  as the
     Fund at the same time as the Fund,  which could affect the supply and price
     of the securities.  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.

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

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

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

Distribution and Service Plans


     The Distributor.  Under its General Distributor's  Agreement with the Fund,
     the Distributor acts as the Fund's principal  underwriter in the continuous
     public offering of the Fund's classes of shares.  The Distributor bears the
     expenses normally attributable to sales, including advertising and the cost
     of  printing  and  mailing  prospectuses,  other  than those  furnished  to
     existing shareholders.  The Distributor is not obligated to sell a specific
     number of shares.

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

     Distribution  and Service  Plans.  The Fund has adopted a Service  Plan for
     Class A shares and  Distribution  and Service Plans for Class B and Class C
     shares under Rule 12b-1 of the  Investment  Company Act.  Under those plans
     the Fund pays the Distributor for all or a portion of its costs incurred in
     connection  with the  distribution  and/or  servicing  of the shares of the
     particular  class.  Each plan has been  approved  by a vote of the Board of
     Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees1, cast in person
     at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan.

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

          Financial  intermediaries,  brokers  and  dealers  may  receive  other
     payments  from the  Distributor  or the Manager from their own resources in
     connection with the promotion and/or sale of shares of the Fund,  including
     payments  to  defray  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  educational
     seminars  and  meetings.  The  Manager or  Distributor  may share  expenses
     incurred by financial intermediaries in conducting training and educational
     meetings about aspects of the Fund for employees of the  intermediaries  or
     for hosting client seminars or meetings at which the Fund is discussed.  In
     their sole  discretion,  the Manager and/or the Distributor may increase or
     decrease  the amount of  payments  they make from their own  resources  for
     these purposes.


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


          The Board of Trustees and the  Independent  Trustees  must approve all
     material  amendments  to a plan.  An amendment to increase  materially  the
     amount of payments to be made under a plan must be approved by shareholders
     of the class affected by the amendment.  Because Class B shares of the Fund
     automatically  convert  into Class A shares 72 months after  purchase,  the
     Fund must obtain the approval of both Class A and Class B shareholders  for
     a proposed  material  amendment  to the Class A plan that would  materially
     increase  payments  under the plan.  That approval must be by a majority of
     the shares of each class, voting separately by class.

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


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


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

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

          For the fiscal  year ended July 31,  2004  payments  under the Class A
     plan totaled  $1,310,838,  all of which all was paid by the  Distributor to
     recipients,  and included $84,742 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's
     parent  company.  Any  unreimbursed  expenses the  Distributor  incurs with
     respect  to Class A shares  for any  fiscal  year may not 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,  other
     financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

          |X| Class B and Class C 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 Fund
     under the plan  during the  period for which the fee is paid.  The types of
     services that recipients provide are similar to the services provided under
     the Class A service plan, described above.

          Each plan permits the Distributor to retain both the asset-based sales
     charges and the service fee on shares or to pay  recipients the service fee
     on a quarterly basis, without payment in advance.  However, the Distributor
     currently  intends to pay the service fee to  recipients in advance for the
     first year after Class B and Class C shares are purchased.  After the first
     year shares are outstanding,  after their purchase,  the Distributor  makes
     service fee payments  quarterly  on those  shares.  The advance  payment is
     based on the net asset value of shares sold.  Shares  purchased by exchange
     do not qualify for the advance  service fee payment.  If Class B or Class C
     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 made on those
     shares.  Class B or  Class C shares  may not be  purchased  by an  investor
     directly  from the  Distributor  without the investor  designating  another
     broker-dealer   of  record.   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
     and Class C 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% of the net  assets  per year of the  respective
     classes.

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

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

pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at the time of sale and
pays service fees as described above,

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,

employs personnel to support distribution of Class B and Class C 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 and
     Class C shares without  receiving payment under the plans and therefore may
     not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent the plans,

     o receives  payments under the plans  consistent  with the service fees and
     asset-based sales charges paid by other  non-proprietary  funds that charge
     12b-1 fees,

     o may use the  payments  under  the plan to  include  the  Fund in  various
     third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund shares,

     o may experience increased difficulty selling the Fund's shares if payments
     under the plan are  discontinued  because most competitor  funds have plans
     that pay dealers for rendering  distribution  services as much or more than
     the amounts currently being paid by the Fund, and

     o may not be able to continue  providing,  at the same or at a lesser cost,
     the same quality distribution sales efforts and services, or to obtain such
     services  from  brokers  and  dealers,  if the  plan  payments  were  to be
     discontinued.


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

Performance of the Fund


     Explanation of Performance Terminology. The Fund uses a variety of terms to
     illustrate  its  performance.  These terms  include  "standardized  yield,"
     "tax-equivalent  yield,"  "dividend  yield," "average annual total return,"
     "cumulative total return," "average annual total return at net asset value"
     and "total  return at net asset  value." An  explanation  of how yields and
     total returns are calculated is set forth below.  The charts below show the
     Fund's  performance  as of the its most  recent  fiscal  year end.  You can
     obtain current performance information by calling the Fund's Transfer Agent
     at 1.800.525.7048 or by visiting the  OppenheimerFunds  Internet website at
     www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

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


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

     Yields and total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical  account
     in the Fund over various  periods and do not show the  performance  of each
     shareholder's  account. Your account's performance will vary from the model
     performance data if your dividends are received in cash, or you buy or sell
     shares during the period, or you bought your shares at a different time and
     price than the shares used in the model.

     The  Fund's  performance  returns  may not  reflect  the effect of taxes on
     dividends and capital gains distributions.

     An  investment  in  the  Fund  is not  insured  by the  FDIC  or any  other
     government agency.

     The principal value of the Fund's shares,  and its yields and total returns
     are not guaranteed  and normally will  fluctuate on a daily basis.

     When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than
     their  original  cost.

     Yields and total  returns  for any given past period  represent  historical
     performance  information  and are not,  and  should  not be  considered,  a
     prediction of future yields or 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 yields and
     total  returns of each class of shares of the Fund are  affected  by market
     conditions,  the quality of the Fund's  investments,  the maturity of those
     investments,  the types of  investments  the Fund holds,  and its operating
     expenses that are allocated to the particular class.


          Yields.  The Fund uses a variety of different yields to illustrate its
     current  returns.  Each  class of shares  calculates  its yield  separately
     because of the different expenses that affect each class.

     o Standardized Yield. The "standardized  yield" (sometimes referred to just
     as "yield") is shown for a class of shares for a stated 30-day  period.  It
     is not based on actual  distributions  paid by the Fund to  shareholders in
     the  30-day  period,  but  is a  hypothetical  yield  based  upon  the  net
     investment income from the Fund's portfolio investments for that period. It
     may  therefore  differ  from the  "dividend  yield"  for the same  class of
     shares, described below.

          Standardized yield is calculated using the following formula set forth
     in rules adopted by the SEC,  designed to assure uniformity in the way that
     all funds calculate their yields:

        Standardized Yield = 2 [(a-b +1)6 -1]
                                 ---
                                 cd

     The symbols above represent the following factors:

     a = dividends and interest earned during the 30-day period.

     b = expenses accrued for the period (net of any expense assumptions).

     c = the average daily number of shares of that class outstanding during the
     30-day period that were entitled to receive dividends.

     d = the maximum  offering  price per share of that class on the last day of
     the period, adjusted for undistributed net investment income.


          The standardized  yield for a particular 30-day period may differ from
     the yield for other periods.  The SEC formula assumes that the standardized
     yield for a 30-day period occurs at a constant rate for a six-month  period
     and is annualized at the end of the six-month period. Additionally, because
     each class of shares is subject to  different  expenses,  it is likely that
     the standardized yields of the Fund's classes of shares will differ for any
     30-day period.

          o Dividend Yield. The Fund may quote a "dividend yield" for each class
     of its shares.  Dividend yield is based on the dividends paid on a class of
     shares during the actual dividend period. To calculate  dividend yield, the
     dividends of a class  declared  during a stated period are added  together,
     and the sum is multiplied by 12 (to annualize the yield) and divided by the
     maximum offering price on the last day of the dividend period.  The formula
     is shown below:

     Dividend Yield = dividends paid x 12/maximum offering price (payment date)


          The maximum  offering  price for Class A shares  includes  the current
     maximum  initial sales charge.  The maximum  offering price for Class B and
     Class C shares is the net asset value per share,  without  considering  the
     effect of contingent deferred sales charges. The Class A dividend yield may
     also be quoted without deducting the maximum initial sales charge.


          Tax-Equivalent Yield. The "tax-equivalent  yield" of a class of shares
     is  the  equivalent  yield  that  would  have  to be  earned  on a  taxable
     investment  to achieve  the  after-tax  results  represented  by the Fund's
     tax-equivalent   yield.  It  adjusts  the  Fund's  standardized  yield,  as
     calculated  above, by a stated tax rate.  Using different tax rates to show
     different tax equivalent  yields shows  investors in different tax brackets
     the tax equivalent yield of the Fund based on their own tax bracket.

          The tax-equivalent  yield is based on a 30-day period, and is computed
     by  dividing  the  tax-exempt  portion  of the  Fund's  current  yield  (as
     calculated  above) by one minus a stated  income  tax rate.  The  result is
     added to the  portion  (if any) of the  Fund's  current  yield  that is not
     tax-exempt.

          The  tax-equivalent  yield may be used to compare  the tax  effects of
     income  derived from the Fund with income from taxable  investments  at the
     tax rates stated.  Your tax bracket is determined by your federal and state
     taxable  income  (the net amount  subject to federal  and state  income tax
     after deductions and exemptions).

               |X| Total Return  Information.  There are diffent types of "total
          returns" to measure the Fund's performance. Total return is the change
          in  value  of a  hypothetical  investment  in the  Fund  over a given
          period,  assuming that all  dividends and capital gains  distributions
          are  reinvested  in  additional  shares  and  that the  investment  is
          redeemed  at the end of the  period.  Because  of the  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,  10 years).  An
          average  annual total return shows the average rate of return for each
          year that would  produce the  cumulative  total return over the entire
          period.  However,  average  annual  total  returnsa do not show actual
          year-by-year performance.  The Fund uses standardized calculations for
          its total returns  prescribed by the SEC. The methodology is discussed
          below.

               In  calculating  total  returns  for Class A shares,  the current
          maximum sales charge of 4.75% (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 shwon: 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 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
        P

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

ATVD l/n     - 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 Fund during
          the specified  period and the effect of capital gains taxes or capital
          loss  tax  benefits  (each   calculated   using  the  highest  federal
          individual  capital gains tax rate in effect on the  redemption  date)
          resulting  from the redemption of the shares at the end of the period.
          It  is  the  rate  of  return  based  on  the  change  in  value  of a
          hypothetical  initial  investment of $1,000 ("P" in the formula below)
          held for a number of years ("n" in the  formula)  to achieve an ending
          value ("ATVDR" in the formula) of that  investment,  after taking into
          account  the  effect  of  taxes  on  fund  distributions  and  on  the
          redemption of Fund shares, according to the following formula:

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

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

    ERV - P       = Total Return

-----------------
       P


               o Total  Returns at Net Asset  Value.  From time to time the Fund
          may also quote a cumulative or an average  annual total return "at net
          asset  value"  (without  deducting  sales  charges)  for each class of
          shares.  Each is based on the  difference in net asset value per share
          at  the  beginning  and  the  end  of the  period  for a  hypothetical
          investment in that class of shares (without  considering  front-end or
          contingent  deferred sales charges) and takes into  consideration  the
          reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.

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

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

     |X|  Morningstar  Ratings.  From time to time the Fund may publish the star
     rating of the performance of its classes of shares by Morningstar, Inc., an
     independent  mutual fund monitoring  service.  Morningstar  rates and ranks
     mutual funds in their specialized market sectors.  The Fund is ranked among
     long duration national municipal bond funds.


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

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


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


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


     From  time to time the Fund may  include  in its  advertisements  and sales
     literature  the  total  return  performance  of a  hypothetical  investment
     account that includes shares of the Fund and other  Oppenheimer  funds. The
     combined  account  may be part of an  illustration  of an asset  allocation
     model or similar  presentation.  The account  performance may combine total
     return  performance  of the Fund and the total return  performance of other
     Oppenheimer funds included in the account. Additionally, from time to time,
     the  Fund's   advertisements   and  sales   literature  may  include,   for
     illustrative or comparative purposes, statistical data or other information
     about general or specific market and economic conditions. That may include,
     for example,

     o information  about the  performance of certain  securities or commodities
     markets or segments of those markets,

     o  information  about  the  performance  of  the  economies  of  particular
     countries or regions,

     o the earnings of companies included in segments of particular  industries,
     sectors, securities markets, countries or regions,

     o the  availability  of  different  types of  securities  or  offerings  of
     securities,

     o information  relating to the gross national or gross domestic  product of
     the United States or other countries or regions,

     o  comparisons   of  various  market  sectors  or  indices  to  demonstrate
     performance, risk, or other characteristics of the Fund.

     How to Buy Shares

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


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

AccountLink.  When shares are purchased through AccountLink,  each purchase must
be at least  $50 and  shareholders  must  invest at least  $500  before an Asset
Builder Plan  (described  below) can be established  on a new account.  Accounts
established  prior  to  November  1,  2002  will  remain  at $25 for  additional
purchases.  Shares will be purchased on the regular business day the Distributor
is instructed to initiate the Automated  Clearing House ("ACH")  transfer to buy
the shares. Dividends will begin to accrue on shares purchased with the proceeds
of ACH  transfers on the business day the Fund  receives  Federal  Funds for the
purchase  through the ACH system before the close of The New York Stock Exchange
("the  Exchange").  The  Exchange  normally  closes at 4:00 P.M.,  but may close
earlier on certain  days.  If Federal Funds are received on a business day after
the close of the Exchange, the shares will be purchased and dividends will begin
to accrue on the next regular  business  day.  The  proceeds of ACH  Oppenheimer
Limited-Term  Government Fund transfers are normally  received by the Fund three
days after the transfers are initiated.  If the proceeds of the ACH transfer are
not received on a timely basis, the Distributor reserves the right to cancel the
purchase order.  The Distributor and the Fund are not responsible for any delays
in purchasing shares resulting from delays in ACH transmissions.

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

Centennial California Tax Exempt
           Trust                      Centennial Tax Exempt Trust

               There is an  initial  sales  charge  on the  purchase  of Class A
          shares of each of the  Oppenheimer  funds  described  above except the
          money market  funds.  Under  certain  circumstances  described in this
          Statement of Additional  Information,  redemption  proceeds of certain
          money market fund shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales
          charge.

     Letters of Intent.  Under a Letter of Intent  ("Letter"),  if you  purchase
     Class A  shares  or  Class A and  Class B  shares  of the  Fund  and  other
     Oppenheimer funds during a 13-month period, you can reduce the sales charge
     rate that applies to your purchases of Class A shares.  The total amount of
     your intended  purchases of both Class A and Class B shares will  determine
     the reduced sales charge rate for the Class A shares  purchased during that
     period. You can include purchases made up to 90 days before the date of the
     Letter.  Letters do not  consider  Class C shares you  purchase or may have
     purchased.

               A Letter is an investor's statement in writing to the Distributor
          of the  intention  to  purchase  Class A shares or Class A and Class B
          shares of the Fund (and  other  Oppenheimer  funds)  during a 13-month
          period (the "Letter  period").  At the  investor's  request,  this may
          include  purchases made up to 90 days prior to the date of the Letter.
          The  Letter  states the  investor's  intention  to make the  aggregate
          amount of  purchases  of shares  which,  when added to the  investor's
          holdings  of shares of those  funds,  will  equal or exceed the amount
          specified in the Letter.  Purchases made by  reinvestment of dividends
          or  distributions  of capital  gains and  purchases  made at net asset
          value without sales charge do not count toward  satisfying  the amount
          of the Letter.

               A Letter  enables  an  investor  to count the Class A and Class B
          shares  purchased  under the Letter to obtain the reduced sales charge
          rate on purchases of Class A shares of the Fund (and other Oppenheimer
          funds)  that  applies  under  the  Right of  Accumulation  to  current
          purchases of Class A shares. Each purchase of Class A shares under the
          Letter will be made at the offering price (including the sales charge)
          that  applies to a single  lump-sum  purchase  of shares in the amount
          intended to be purchased under the Letter.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

               5. The  shares  eligible  for  purchase  under the Letter (or the
          holding  of  which  may be  counted  toward  completion  of a  Letter)
          include:

     (a) Class A shares sold with a front-end sales charge or subject to a Class
     A contingent deferred sales charge,

     (b)  Class B shares  of  other  Oppenheimer  funds  acquired  subject  to a
     contingent deferred sales charge, and

     (c) Class A or Class B shares  acquired  by  exchange of either (1) Class A
     shares of one of the other  Oppenheimer funds that were acquired subject to
     a Class A initial or contingent deferred sales charge or (2) Class B shares
     of one of the other  Oppenheimer  funds  that were  acquired  subject  to a
     contingent deferred sales charge.

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

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

               If you make payments from your bank account to purchase shares of
          the Fund,  your bank account will be debited  automatically.  Normally
          the debit will be made two business days prior to the investment dates
          you  selected  on  your  application.  Neither  the  Distributor,  the
          Transfer  Agent or the Fund  shall be  responsible  for any  delays in
          purchasing shares that result from delays in ACH transmissions.

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

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

     Classes of Shares.  Each class of shares of the Fund represents an interest
     in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund.  However,  each class has
     different shareholder  privileges and features. The net income attributable
     to Class B or Class C shares and the dividends  payable on Class B or Class
     C shares  will be  reduced by  incremental  expenses  borne  solely by that
     class.  Those expenses include the asset-based sales charges to which Class
     B and Class C 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 and Class C shares have no
          initial  sales  charge,  the purpose of the deferred  sales charge and
          asset-based  sales charge on Class B and Class C shares is the same as
          that of the initial sales charge on Class A shares - to compensate the
          Distributor and brokers,  dealers and financial institutions that sell
          shares  of  the  Fund.  A  salesperson  who  is  entitled  to  receive
          compensation  from his or her firm for selling Fund shares may receive
          different  levels  of  compensation  for  selling  one class of shares
          rather than another.

               The  Distributor  will not accept a purchase order of $100,000 or
          more 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).

               |X|  Class  B  Conversion.   Under  current   interpretations  of
          applicable federal income tax law by the Internal Revenue Service, the
          conversion  of  Class B  shares  to Class A  shares  72  months  after
          purchase is not  treated as a taxable  event for the  shareholder.  If
          those laws or the IRS  interpretation of those laws should change, the
          automatic  conversion  feature may be  suspended.  In that  event,  no
          further   conversions  of  Class  B  shares  would  occur  while  that
          suspension  remained in effect.  Although Class B shares could then be
          exchanged  for Class A shares on the basis of relative net asset value
          of the two classes,  without the  imposition of a sales charge or fee,
          such exchange  could  constitute a taxable event for the  shareholder,
          and absent such exchange,  Class B shares might continue to be subject
          to the asset-based sales charge for longer than six years.

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

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

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

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

               Listed below are certain cases in which the Fund has elected,  in
          its discretion,  not to assess the Fund Account Fees. These exceptions
          are subject to change:

     A fund account whose shares were acquired after September 30th of the prior
     year;

     o A fund  account  that  has a  balance  below  $500  due to the  automatic
     conversion  of shares  from  Class B to Class A shares.  However,  once all
     Class B shares held in the account  have been  converted  to Class A shares
     the new account balance may become subject to the Minimum Balance Fee;

     o Accounts of  shareholders  who elect to access  their  account  documents
     electronically via eDoc Direct;

     o A fund account that has only certificated shares and, has a balance below
     $500 and is being escheated;

     o Accounts of shareholders that are held by  broker-dealers  under the NSCC
     Fund/SERV system;

     o Accounts held under the Oppenheimer Legacy Program and/or holding certain
     Oppenheimer  Variable  Account  Funds;

     o Omnibus  accounts  holding  shares  pursuant to the  Pinnacle,  Ascender,
     Custom  Plus,   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.

               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 The 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 the Fund are  determined  as of the  close of
     business  of the  Exchange  on each  day  that the  Exchange  is open.  The
     calculation  is done  by  dividing  the  value  of the  Fund's  net  assets
     attributable  to a class by the  number of shares  of that  class  that are
     outstanding.  The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M.,  Eastern time, but
     may close  earlier  on some  other  days (for  example,  in case of weather
     emergencies  or on days falling before a U.S.  holiday).  All references to
     time in this Statement of Additional  Information  mean "Eastern time." The
     Exchange's most recent annual announcement regarding holidays and days when
     the  market  may close  early is  available  on the  Exchange's  website at
     www.nyse.com.

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

               Securities   Valuation.   The  Fund's   Board  of  Trustees   has
          established procedures for the valuation of the Fund's securities.  In
          general those procedures are as follows:

     o Long-term  debt  securities  having a remaining  maturity in excess of 60
     days are valued  based on the mean  between  the "bid" and  "asked"  prices
     determined by a portfolio  pricing service  approved by the Fund's Board of
     Trustees or obtained by the Manager  from two active  market  makers in the
     security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.

     o The  following  securities  are valued at the mean  between the "bid" and
     "asked" prices determined by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board
     of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
     security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:

     (1) debt  instruments  that  have a  maturity  of more  than 397 days  when
     issued,

     (2) debt  instruments  that had a maturity  of 397 days or less when issued
     and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and

     (3) non-money  market debt  instruments  that had a maturity of 397 days or
     less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60 days or less.

     o The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization of
     premiums and accretion of discounts:

     (1) money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a
     maturity of less than 397 days when  issued that have a remaining  maturity
     of 60 days or less, and

     (2) debt  instruments  held by a money  market  fund that have a  remaining
     maturity of 397 days or less.

     o Securities (including restricted securities) not having readily-available
     market  quotations  are valued at fair value  determined  under the Board's
     procedures. If the Manager is unable to locate two market makers willing to
     give  quotes,  a security  may be priced at the mean  between the "bid" and
     "asked"  prices  provided by a single active market maker (which in certain
     cases may be the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available).

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

               Puts, calls,  futures and municipal bond index futures are valued
          at the last sale  price on the  principal  exchange  on which they are
          traded or on  Nasdaq(R),  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 or on Nasdaq on the
          valuation  date.  If not,  the value shall be the closing bid price on
          the principal exchange or on Nasdaq on the valuation date. If the put,
          call or future is not traded on an exchange or on Nasdaq,  it shall be
          valued by the mean between  "bid" and "asked"  prices  obtained by the
          Manager from two active market makers. In certain cases that may be at
          the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available.

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

How to Sell Shares

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

     Checkwriting.  When a check is  presented  to  United  Missouri  Bank  (the
     "Bank") for  clearance,  the Bank will ask the Fund to redeem a  sufficient
     number of full and fractional shares in the shareholder's  account to cover
     the amount of the check. This enables the shareholder to continue receiving
     dividends on those shares until the check is presented to the Fund.  Checks
     may not be  presented  for payment at the offices of the Bank or the Fund's
     custodian.  This  limitation  does not  affect  the use of  checks  for the
     payment of bills or to obtain cash at other  banks.  The Fund  reserves the
     right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering checkwriting  privileges at
     any time. The Fund will provide you notice whenever it is required to do so
     by applicable law.

               In choosing to take advantage of the Checkwriting  privilege,  by
          signing the account  application or by completing a Checkwriting card,
          each individual who signs:

     (1) for  individual  accounts,  represents  that  they  are the  registered
     owner(s) of the shares of the Fund in that account;

     (2) for accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts and other entities,
     represents  that they are an  officer,  general  partner,  trustee or other
     fiduciary or agent, as applicable,  duly authorized to act on behalf of the
     registered owner(s);

     (3)  authorizes the Fund, its Transfer Agent and any bank through which the
     Fund's  drafts  (checks)  are  payable to pay all checks  drawn on the Fund
     account of such person(s) and to redeem a sufficient  amount of shares from
     that account to cover payment of each check;

     (4)  specifically  acknowledges  that if they choose to permit checks to be
     honored  if there is a single  signature  on  checks  drawn  against  joint
     accounts,  or  accounts  for  corporations,  partnerships,  trusts or other
     entities,  the signature of any one signatory on a check will be sufficient
     to authorize payment of that check and redemption from the account, even if
     that  account  is  registered  in the names of more than one person or more
     than one  authorized  signature  appears  on the  Checkwriting  card or the
     application, as applicable;

     (5)  understands  that the  Checkwriting  privilege  may be  terminated  or
     amended at any time by the Fund and/or the Fund's bank; and

     (6)  acknowledges and agrees that neither the Fund nor its bank shall incur
     any liability for that amendment or termination of checkwriting  privileges
     or for  redeeming  shares to pay checks  reasonably  believed by them to be
     genuine,  or for returning or not paying checks that have not been accepted
     for any reason.

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

     Reinvestment  Privilege.  Within six months of a redemption,  a shareholder
     may reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of:

     o Class A shares  purchased  subject to an initial  sales charge or Class A
     shares on which a contingent deferred sales charge was paid, or

     o Class B shares that were subject to the Class B contingent deferred sales
     charge when redeemed.

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

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

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

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

     Involuntary  Redemptions.  The Fund's  Board of  Trustees  has the right to
     cause the  involuntary  redemption of the shares held in any account if the
     aggregate  net asset value of those shares is less than $200 or such lesser
     amount  as the  Board may fix.  The  Board of  Trustees  will not cause the
     involuntary  redemption  of shares in an account if the aggregate net asset
     value of such shares has fallen below the stated minimum solely as a result
     of market fluctuations.  If the Board exercises this right, it may also fix
     the requirements for any notice to be given to the shareholders in question
     (not less than 30 days). The Board may  alternatively  set requirements for
     the  shareholder  to  increase  the  investment,  or set  other  terms  and
     conditions so that the shares would not be involuntarily redeemed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

               Automatic Exchange Plans. Shareholders can authorize the Transfer
          Agent to  exchange a  pre-determined  amount of shares of the FUnd 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.

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


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

               Shares will be redeemed  to make  withdrawal  payments at the net
          asset value per share  determined on the  redemption  date.  Checks or
          AccountLink  payments  representing  the proceeds of Plan  withdrawals
          will  norally be  transmitted  three  business  days prior to the date
          prior to the date selected for receipt of the payment according to the
          choice specified in writing by trhe 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 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
          thbe plan.  That notice must be in proper form in accordance  with the
          requirements of the then-current Prospectus of the Fund. In that case,
          the Transfer  Agent will redeem the number of shares  requested at the
          net asset  value  per  share in  effect  and will mail a check for the
          proceeds to the Planholder.


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

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

How to Exchange Shares.


     As satted 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 Class Y shares of  Oppenheimer  Real Asset Fund may not be exchanged  for
     shares of any other fund.

     o Class B,  Class C and Class N shares of  Oppenheimer  Cash  Reserves  are
     generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of other
     Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k) plans.

     o  Class  M  shares  of  Oppenheimer  Convertible  Securities  Fund  may be
     exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer  funds. They may not
     be acquired  by  exchange  of shares of any class of any other  Oppenheimer
     funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or Oppenheimer
     Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M shares.

     o Shares of Oppenheimer Capital  Preservation Fund may not be exchanged for
     shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash Reserves or
     Oppenheimer  Limited-Term  Government  Fund.  Only  participants in certain
     retirement  plans may purchase shares of Oppenheimer  Capital  Preservation
     Fund, and only those  participants may exchange shares of other Oppenheimer
     funds for shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund.

     o Class A shares of  Oppenheimer  funds may be exchanged at net asset value
     for shares of any money market fund offered by the  Distributor.  Shares of
     any money market fund purchased without a sales charge may be exchanged for
     shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge upon payment of the
     sales charge. They may also be used to purchase shares of Oppenheimer funds
     subject to an early withdrawal charge or contingent deferred sales charge.

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

     o Shares of the Fund acquired by reinvestment of dividends or distributions
     from any of the other  Oppenheimer  funds or from any unit investment trust
     for which reinvestment arrangements have been made with the Distributor may
     be exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer funds.

     o  Shares  of  Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected  Main  Street  Fund may be
     exchanged  at net asset value for shares of any of the  Oppenheimer  funds.
     However,  shareholders  are not  permitted  to  exchange  shares  of  other
     Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street
     Fund until after the expiration of the warranty period (8/5/2010).

     o Shares of  Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected  Main  Street Fund II may be
     exchanged  at net asset value for shares of any of the  Oppenheimer  funds.
     However,  shareholders  are not  permitted  to  exchange  shares  of  other
     Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street
     Fund II until after the expiration of the warranty period (2/4/2011).


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

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

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

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

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

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


     o With respect to Class B shares (other than Limited-Term  Government Fund,
     Limited  Term  Municipal  Fund,  Limited  Term  New  York  Municipal  Fund,
     Oppenheimer Capital  Preservation Fund and Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate
     Fund),  the Class B contingent  deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B
     shares  acquired by exchange if they are  redeemed  within six years of the
     initial purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

     o With respect to Class B shares of Limited-Term  Government Fund,  Limited
     Term  Municipal  Fund,  Limited Term New York Municipal  Fund,  Oppenheimer
     Capital  Preservation  Fund and Oppenheimer  Senior Floating Rate Fund, the
     Class B  contingent  deferred  sales  charge is  imposed  on Class B shares
     acquired  by exchange  if they are  redeemed  within 5 years of the initial
     purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.


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


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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

     Dividends and  Distributions.  Dividends  will be payable on shares held of
     record at the time of the previous  determination of net asset value, or as
     otherwise  described in "How to Buy Shares."  Daily  dividends  will not be
     declared or paid on newly purchased shares until such time as Federal Funds
     (funds credited to a member bank's account at the Federal Reserve Bank) are
     available  from the purchase  payment for such shares.  Normally,  purchase
     checks  received from  investors are converted to Federal Funds on the next
     business day. Shares purchased through dealers or brokers normally are paid
     for by the third  business  day  following  the  placement  of the purchase
     order.

               Shares redeemed through the regular redemption  procedure will be
          paid  dividends  through and including the day on which the redemption
          request is received by the Transfer  Agent in proper  form.  Dividends
          will be declared on shares repurchased by a dealer or broker for three
          business  days  following the trade date (that is, up to and including
          the day prior to  settlement of the  repurchase).  If all shares in an
          account  are  redeemed,  all  dividends  accrued on shares of the same
          class  in the  account  will  be paid  together  with  the  redemption
          proceeds.

               The Fund's  practice of  attempting  to pay  dividends on Class A
          shares at a constant  level requires the Manager to monitor the Fund's
          portfolio and, if necessary, to select higher-yielding securities when
          it is deemed  appropriate  to seek income at the level  needed to meet
          the  target.  Those  securities  must be within the Fund's  investment
          parameters,  however.  The Fund expects to pay dividends at a targeted
          level from its net investment  income and other  distributable  income
          without any impact on the net asset values per share.

               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.


               The amount of a  distribution  paid on a class of shares may vary
          from time to time depending on market  conditions,  the composition of
          the  Fund's  portfolio,  and  expenses  borne  by the  Fund  or  borne
          separately by a class. Dividends are calculated in the same manner, at
          the same time and on the same day for shares of each  class.  However,
          dividends  on Class B and Class C shares are expected to be lower than
          dividends  on  Class  A  shares.  That  is due to  the  effect  of the
          asset-based  sales  charge  on  Class  B and  Class  C  shares.  Those
          dividends  will  also  differ  in  amount  as  a  consequence  of  any
          difference in net asset value among the different classes of shares.

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


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


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


               If the Fund qualifies as a "regulated  investment  company" under
          the Internal  Revenue Code,  it will not be liable for federal  income
          tax on  amounts it pays as  dividends  and other  distributions.  That
          qualification  enables  the  Fund to "pass  through"  its  income  and
          realized  capital gains to  shareholders  without having to pay tax on
          them. The Fund qualified as a regulated investment company in its last
          fiscal year and intends to qualify in future  years,  but reserves the
          right not to qualify.  The Internal  Revenue Code contains a number of
          complex tests to determine whether the Fund qualifies.  The Fund might
          not meet those tests in a particular year. If it does not qualify, the
          Fund will be treated for tax purposes as an ordinary  corporation  and
          will receive no tax  deduction  for  payments of  dividends  and other
          distributions  made to shareholders.  In such an instance,  all of the
          Fund's dividends would be taxable to shareholders.

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

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

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

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

               Taxation of Fund Distributions. The Fund intends to qualify under
          the   Internal   Revenue   Code   during   each  fiscal  year  to  pay
          "exempt-interest  dividends"  to its  shareholders.  To  satisfy  this
          qualification,  at the end of each  quarter of its  taxable  year,  at
          least  50% of the  value  of  the  Fund's  total  assets  consists  of
          obligations as defined in Section 103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code,
          as  amended.  Exempt-interest  dividends  that  are  derived  from net
          investment  income earned by the Fund on municipal  securities will be
          excludable  from gross income of  shareholders  for federal income tax
          purposes.   To  the   extent   the  Fund   fails  to  qualify  to  pay
          exempt-interest  dividends in any given form,  such dividends would be
          included in the gross income of  shareholders  for federal  income tax
          purposes.

               Net  investment  income  includes  the  allocation  of amounts of
          income from the municipal  securities in the Fund's portfolio that are
          free from federal income taxes.  This  allocation  will be made by the
          use of one  designated  percentage  applied  uniformly  to all  income
          dividends  paid  during  the Fund's tax year.  That  designation  will
          normally  be made  following  the end of each fiscal year as to income
          dividends paid in the prior year. The percentage of income  designated
          as  tax-exempt  may  substantially  differ from the  percentage of the
          Fund's income that was tax-exempt for a given period.

               A shareholder receiving a dividend from income earned by the Fund
          from one or more of the  following  sources must treat the dividend as
          ordinary income in the computation of the shareholder's  gross income,
          regardless of whether the dividend is reinvested:

     (1) certain taxable temporary investments (such as certificates of deposit,
     repurchase  agreements,  commercial  paper  and  obligations  of  the  U.S.
     government, its agencies and instrumentalities);

     (2) income from securities loans;

     (3) income or gains from options or futures,

     (4) any net short-term capital gain; and

     (5) any market discount amortization on tax-exempt bonds.

               The   Fund's   dividends   will   not   be   eligible   for   the
          dividends-received deduction for corporations.  Shareholders receiving
          Social Security or railroad  retirement  benefits should be aware that
          exempt-interest dividends are a factor in determining whether (and the
          extent to which)  such  benefits  are  subject to federal  income tax.
          Losses  realized  by  shareholders  on the  redemption  of Fund shares
          within six months of purchase  will be disallowed  for federal  income
          tax purposes to the extent of  exempt-interest  dividends  received on
          such shares.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     If the ordinary income  dividends from the Fund are  effectively  connected
with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business,  then the foreign person may claim
an  exemption  from the U.S.  tax  described  above  provided the Fund obtains a
properly  completed and signed  Certificate  of Foreign  Status.  If the foreign
person fails to provide a certification of his/her foreign status, the Fund will
be required to withhold U.S. tax at a rate of 28% on ordinary  income  dividends
(not  including  "exempt-interest   dividends"),   capital  gains  distributions
(including  short-term  and  long-term)  and the proceeds of the  redemption  of
shares,  paid to any foreign  person.  All income and any tax  withheld (in this
situation)  by the Fund is  remitted  by the Fund to the  U.S.  Treasury  and is
identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each year.

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

Dividend  Reinvestment  in Another Fund.  Shareholders  of the Fund may elect to
reinvest all dividends and/or capital gains  distributions in shares of the same
class of any of the other Oppenheimer  funds listed above.  Reinvestment will be
made  without  sales  charge at the net  asset  value per share in effect at the
close of business on the payable date of the dividend or distribution.  To elect
this option,  the shareholder must notify the Transfer Agent in writing and must
have an existing  account in the fund selected for  reinvestment.  Otherwise the
shareholder first must obtain a prospectus for that fund and an application from
the Distributor to establish an account.  Dividends  and/or  distributions  from
shares of certain other Oppenheimer funds (other than Oppenheimer Cash Reserves)
may be invested in shares of this Fund on the same basis.

Additional Information About the Fund


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

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

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


     Independent  Registered  Public  Accounting  Firm.  KPMG LLP  serves  as an
     Independent  Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Fund. They audit the
     Fund's financial statements and perform other related audit services.  They
     also  act as an  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm  for the
     Manager and certain other funds advised by the Manager and its  affiliates.
     Audit  and  non-audit  services  provided  by KPMG LLP to the Fund  must be
     pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Bonds rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization are
included in the equivalent Standard & Poor's rating category. As a general
matter, unrated bonds may be backed by mortgage liens or equipment liens on the
underlying property, and also may be guaranteed. Bonds which are backed by a
letter of credit or by other financial institutions or agencies may be assigned
an investment-grade rating by the Manager, which reflects the quality of the
guarantor, institution or agency. Unrated bonds may also be assigned a rating
when the issuer has rated bonds outstanding with comparable credit
characteristics, or when, in the opinion of the Manager, the bond itself
possesses credit characteristics which allow for rating. The unrated bonds in
the portfolio are predominantly smaller issuers which have not applied for a
bond rating. Only those unrated bonds which subsequent to purchase have not been
designated investment grade by the Manager are included in the "Not Rated"
category.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals (the Fund), formerly Oppenheimer Municipal Bond
 Fund, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an
 open-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to
 seek as high a level of current interest income exempt from federal income
 taxes as is available from investing in municipal securities, while attempting
 to preserve capital. The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
 (the Manager).
    The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class A shares are sold
 at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end
 sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales
 charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). All
 classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to
 the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that
 class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due
 to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder
 servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to
 that class. Class A, B and C have separate distribution and/or service plans.
 Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the
 date of purchase.
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
 followed by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SECURITIES VALUATION. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as
 of the close of The New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange), normally 4:00 P.M.
 Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for business. Securities listed
 or traded on National Stock Exchanges or other domestic or foreign exchanges
 are valued based on the last sale price of the security traded on that exchange
 prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. Securities traded on
 NASDAQ are valued based on the closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the
 time when the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security
 is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the
 spread of the closing bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid
 price. Corporate, government and municipal debt instruments having a remaining
 maturity in excess of 60 days and all mortgage-backed securities will be valued
 at the mean between the "bid" and "asked"prices. Securities may be valued
 primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
 authorized by the Board of Trustees. Securities (including restricted
 securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at
 their fair value. Foreign and domestic securities whose values have been
 materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event
 occurring before the Fund's assets are valued but after the close of their
 respective exchanges will be fair valued. Fair value is determined in good
 faith using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board
 of Trustees. Short-term "money market type" debt securities with remaining
 maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost (which
 approximates market value).

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued
 INVERSE FLOATING RATE SECURITIES. The Fund invests in inverse floating rate
 securities that pay interest at a rate that varies inversely with short-term
 interest rates. Certain of these securities may be leveraged, whereby the
 interest rate varies inversely at a multiple of the change in short-term rates.
 As interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce less current income. The price
 of such securities is more volatile than comparable fixed rate securities. The
 Fund intends to invest no more than 20% of its total assets in inverse
 floaters. Inverse floaters amount to $54,703,012 as of July 31, 2004. Including
 the effect of leverage, inverse floaters represent 16.97% of the Fund's total
 assets as of July 31, 2004.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other than
 those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a
 daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
 assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
 specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 FEDERAL TAXES. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal
 Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
 substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net
 realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any,
 to shareholders, therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is
 required.

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

 thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions. As of July 31, 2004, details
 of the capital loss carryforwards were as follows:

 capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
 3. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003, the Fund utilized $6,676,926 of
 capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.

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

 The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended July 31, 2004
 and July 31, 2003 was as follows:
                                             YEAR ENDED      YEAR ENDED
                                          JULY 31, 2004   JULY 31, 2003
                 -------------------------------------------------------
                 Distributions paid from:
                 Exempt-interest dividends  $35,349,623     $35,935,060

 The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of
 unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments
 for federal income tax purposes as of July 31, 2004 are noted below. The
 primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of
 securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax
 deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or

 TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for
 the Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
 fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended
 July 31, 2004, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by
 $14,112 and payments of $10,506 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an
 accumulated liability of $120,397 as of July 31, 2004.
    The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
 independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or
 a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the
 Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the
 plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been
 invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the
 Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the
 Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund
 asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as
 a component of "Other" within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and
 Liabilities. Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan will not affect the net
 assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund's assets,
 liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until
 distributed in accordance to the Plan.

 3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
 The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other
 than short-term obligations, for the year ended July 31, 2004, were $191,682,20
 and $187,948,239, respectively.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 MANAGEMENT FEES. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with
 the investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee at an
 annual rate of 0.60% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets,
 0.55% of the next $100 million, 0.50% of the next $200 million, 0.45% of the
 next $250 million, 0.40% of the next $250 million, and 0.35% of average annual
 net assets over $1 billion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the
 Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The
 Fund pays OFS a per account fee. For the year ended July 31, 2004, the Fund
 paid $436,049 to OFS for services to the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN (12B-1) FEES. Under its General Distributor's
 Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
 acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
 the Fund's classes of shares.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SERVICE PLAN FOR CLASS A SHARES. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class
 A shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for
 services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made
 quarterly at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of
 Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to
 pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly for
 providing personal services and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
 hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with
 respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent
 years. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement
 of Operations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS FOR CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES. The Fund has
 adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and Class C shares to
 compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution
 of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the plans, the Fund pays the
 Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B and
 Class C shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of up to 0.25% per
 year under each plan. If either the Class B or Class C plan is terminated by
 the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its
 independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled
 to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or
 asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date
 of such termination. The Distributor's aggregate uncompensated expenses under
 the plan at July 31, 2004 for Class B and Class C shares were $1,603,450 and
 $575,897, respectively. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plans are detailed
 in the Statement of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PAYMENTS AND WAIVERS OF EXPENSES. The Manager voluntarily agreed to waive a
 portion of its advisory fee at an annual rate equal to 0.10% of each class's
 average daily net assets while the Fund's trailing one-year performance at the
 end of the preceding calendar quarter is in the fifth quintile of the Fund's
 Lipper peer group. The Manager will voluntarily waive a portion of its advisory
 fee at an annual rate equal to 0.05% of each class's average daily net assets
 while the Fund's trailing one-year performance at the end of the preceding
 calendar quarter is in the fourth quintile of the Fund's Lipper peer group. As
 a result of this agreement the Fund was reimbursed $53,402 for the year ended
 July 31, 2004. The foregoing waiver may be amended or withdrawn by the Manager
 at any time.
    OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
 fees for all classes to 0.35% of average annual net assets per class. During
 the year ended July 31, 2004, OFS waived $7,174, $205 and $134 for Class A,
 Class B and Class C shares, respectively. This undertaking may be amended or
 withdrawn at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 5. ILLIQUID SECURITIES
 As of July 31, 2004, investments in securities included issues that are
 illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available
 market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
 Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of
 purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. The aggregate value
 of illiquid securities subject to this limitation as of July 31, 2004 was
 $54,652,039, which represents 8.50% of the Fund's net assets.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 6. BANK BORROWINGS
 The Fund may borrow up to one-third of its total assets from a bank to purchase
 portfolio securities, to meet redemption obligations or for temporary and
 emergency purposes. The purchase of securities with borrowed funds creates
 leverage in the Fund. The Fund has entered into an agreement which enables it
 to participate with certain other Oppenheimer funds in a committed, unsecured
 line of credit with a bank, which


44 | OPPENHEIMER AMT-FREE MUNICIPALS




 permits borrowings up to $540 million, collectively. Interest is charged to
 each fund, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate
 plus 0.75%. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of
 the average unutilized amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.09% per
 annum.
    The Fund had borrowings outstanding of $31,800,000 at July 31, 2004 at an
 interest rate of 2.12%. For the year ended July 31, 2004, the average monthly
 loan balance was $23,270,854 at an average daily interest rate of 1.78%. The
 Fund had gross borrowings and gross loan repayments of $218,700,000 and
 $222,000,000, respectively, during the year ended July 31, 2004. The maximum
 amount of borrowings outstanding at any month-end was $52,700,000. The Fund
 paid commitment fees of $5,394 and interest of $456,363 during the year ended
 July 31, 2004.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - LITIGATION

Three complaints have been filed as putative derivative and class actions
against the Manager, OFS and the Distributor (collectively, "OppenheimerFunds"),
as well as 51 of the Oppenheimer funds (collectively, the "Funds") including
this Fund, and nine directors/trustees of certain of the Funds (collectively,
the "Directors/Trustees"). The complaints allege that the Manager charged
excessive fees for distribution and other costs, improperly used assets of the
Funds in the form of directed brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees to pay
brokers to promote sales of the Funds, and failed to properly disclose the use
of Fund assets to make those payments in violation of the Investment Company Act
of 1940 and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The complaints further allege
that by permitting and/or participating in those actions, the Directors/Trustees
breached their fiduciary duties to Fund shareholders under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 and at common law.

OppenheimerFunds believes that it is premature to render any opinion as to the
likelihood of an outcome unfavorable to them, the Funds or the
Directors/Trustees and that no estimate can yet be made with any degree of
certainty as to the amount or range of any potential loss. However,
OppenheimerFunds, the Funds and the Directors/Trustees believe that the
allegations contained in the complaints are without merit and intend to defend
these lawsuits vigorously.

                                        MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS DEFINITIONS
                                        ----------------------------------


     Below   are   summaries   of   the   rating   definitions   used   by   the
     nationally-recognized   rating   agencies   listed   below  for   municipal
     securities.  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") Municipal Ratings are opinions
     of the investment  quality of issuers and issues in the U.S.  municipal and
     tax-exempt  markets.  As such, these ratings incorporate Moody's assessment
     of the default probability and loss severity of these issuers and issues.

     Municipal  Ratings  are based upon the  analysis  of four  primary  factors
     relating   to   municipal   finance:    economy,    debt,   finances,   and
     administration/management  strategies.  Each of the  factors  is  evaluated
     individually  and for its effect on the other factors in the context of the
     municipality's ability to repay its debt.

MUNICIPAL LONG-TERM RATING DEFINITIONS

     Aaa: Issuers or issues rated Aaa demonstrate the strongest creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     Aa:  Issuers or issues rated Aa  demonstrate  very strong  creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     A:  Issuers  or  issues  rated  A  present  above-average  creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     Baa:  Issuers  or  issues  rated  Baa  represent  average  creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax- exempt issuers or issues.

     Ba: Issuers or issues rated Ba demonstrate  below-average  creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     B: Issuers or issues rated B demonstrate weak creditworthiness  relative to
     other US municipal or tax- exempt issuers or issues.

     Caa:  Issuers or issues rated Caa  demonstrate  very weak  creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     Ca: Issuers or issues rated Ca demonstrate  extremely weak creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     C:  Issuers or issues  rated C  demonstrate  the  weakest  creditworthiness
     relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

     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.

MIG/VMIG RATINGS: U.S. SHORT-TERM RATINGS

     In  municipal  debt  issuance,   there  are  three  rating  categories  for
     short-term  obligations that are considered investment grade. These ratings
     are designated as Moody's Investment Grade (MIG) and are divided into three
     levels -- MIG 1 through MIG 3. In addition,  those  short-term  obligations
     that are of speculative quality are designated SG, or speculative grade.

     In the case of variable rate demand  obligations  (VRDOs),  a two-component
     rating is assigned.  The first element represents Moody's evaluation of the
     degree of risk associated with scheduled  principal and interest  payments.
     The second  element  represents  Moody's  evaluation  of the degree of risk
     associated with the demand feature, using the MIG rating scale.

     The short-term rating assigned to the demand feature of VRDOs is designated
     as VMIG. When either the long- or short-term aspect of a VRDO is not rated,
     that piece is designated NR, e.g., Aaa/NR or NR/VMIG 1.

     MIG ratings expire at note maturity.  By contrast,  VMIG rating expirations
     will be a function of each issue's specific structural or credit features.

     MIG 1/VMIG 1: Denotes  superior  credit  quality.  Excellent  protection is
     afforded by established cash flows,  highly reliable  liquidity  support or
     demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

     MIG 2/VMIG 2: Denotes  strong credit  quality.  Margins of  protection  are
     ample although not as large as in the preceding group.

     MIG 3/VMIG 3: Denotes  acceptable  credit quality.  Liquidity and cash-flow
     protection may be narrow, and market access for refinancing is likely to be
     less well established.

     SG: Denotes  speculative-grade  credit  quality.  Debt  instruments in this
     category may lack margins of protection.


     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' has 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' differs 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' 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.

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,  it faces  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: The `C'  rating  may be used to  cover a  situation  where a  bankruptcy
     petition has been filed or similar  action has been taken,  but payments on
     this obligation are being continued.


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

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

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

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

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

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

N.R. Not rated.

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

Bond Investment Quality Standards

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

SHORT-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS

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

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

     A-2: A short-term  obligation  rated "A-2" is somewhat more  susceptible to
     the adverse  effects of changes in  circumstances  and economic  conditions
     than  obligations  in higher  rating  categories.  However,  the  obligor's
     capacity  to  meet  its   financial   commitment   on  the   obligation  is
     satisfactory.

     A-3: A  short-term  obligation  rated "A-3"  exhibits  adequate  protection
     parameters.  However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances
     are more  likely to lead to a weakened  capacity of the obligor to meet its
     financial commitment on the obligation.

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

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

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

     Notes. A Standard & Poor's note rating  reflects the liquidity  factors and
     market access risks unique to notes.  Notes due in three years or less will
     likely receive a note rating.  Notes maturing  beyond three years will most
     likely receive a long-term debt rating. The following criteria will be used
     in making that assessment:

     o Amortization  schedule-the  larger the final  maturity  relative to other
     maturities, the more likely it will be treated as a note; and

     o Source of  payment-the  more dependent the issue is on the market for its
     refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note.


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

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

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


Fitch, Inc.

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


INTERNATIONAL LONG-TERM CREDIT RATINGS

The following ratings scale applies to foreign currency and local currency ratings.

Investment Grade:

     AAA: Highest Credit Quality. "AAA" ratings denote the lowest expectation of
     credit risk.  They are assigned  only in the case of  exceptionally  strong
     capacity for timely  payment of  financial  commitments.  This  capacity is
     highly unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events.

     AA: Very High Credit Quality. "AA" ratings denote a very low expectation of
     credit risk.  They  indicate a very strong  capacity for timely  payment of
     financial  commitments.  This capacity is not  significantly  vulnerable to
     foreseeable events.

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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

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

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

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

     Entities  rated in this  category  have  defaulted  on some or all of their
     obligations.  Entities rated "DDD" have the highest prospect for resumption
     of   performance   or  continued   operation   with  or  without  a  formal
     reorganization   process.   Entities  rated  "DD"  and  "D"  are  generally
     undergoing a formal reorganization or liquidation process; those rated "DD"
     are likely to satisfy a higher  portion of their  outstanding  obligations,
     while entities rated "D" have a poor prospect for repaying all obligations.
     Plus (+) and minus (-) signs may be appended  to a rating  symbol to denote
     relative  status within the major rating  categories.  Plus and minus signs
     are not added to the "AAA"  category or to  categories  below "CCC," nor to
     short-term ratings other than "F1" (see below).

INTERNATIONAL SHORT-TERM CREDIT RATINGS

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


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

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

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

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

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

     D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.

                                                    Appendix C
                                                    ----------

  OppenheimerFunds    Special   Sales   Charge   Arrangements   and   Waivers


     In certain  cases,  the initial  sales  charge that applies to purchases of
     Class A shares2 of the Oppenheimer  funds or the contingent  deferred sales
     charge that may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.3
     That  is  because  of  the   economies   of  sales   efforts   realized  by
     OppenheimerFunds  Distributor,  Inc.,  (referred to in this document as the
     "Distributor"),  or by dealers or other financial  institutions  that offer
     those shares to certain classes of investors.

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

          For the  purposes  of some of the waivers  described  below and in the
          Prospectus  and Statement of Additional  Information of the applicable
          Oppenheimer  funds, the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following
          types of plans:

          1) plans  qualified  under  Sections  401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
          Revenue Code,

          2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,

          3) employee benefit plans 4

               4) Group Retirement Plans 5

               5) 403(b)(7) custodial plan accounts

               6) Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), including traditional
               IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs or SIMPLE plans

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

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

I.



   Applicability of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in Certain Cases


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

               There is no initial  sales  charge on purchases of Class A shares
          of any of the  Oppenheimer  funds in the cases listed below.  However,
          these  purchases  may be  subject to the Class A  contingent  deferred
          sales  charge if  redeemed  within 18 months (24 months in the case of
          Oppenheimer   Rochester   National   Municipals   and  Rochester  Fund
          Municipals) of the beginning of the calendar month of their  purchase,
          as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver described elsewhere in
          this  Appendix  applies to the  redemption).  Additionally,  on shares
          purchased  under  these  waivers  that  are  subject  to the  Class  A
          contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  the  Distributor  will  pay  the
          applicable  concession  described  in the  Prospectus  under  "Class A
          Contingent Deferred Sales Charge."6 This waiver provision applies to:

         Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.

               Purchases  of  Class A  shares  by a  Retirement  Plan  that  was
               permitted to purchase  such shares at net asset value but subject
               to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge prior to March 1, 2001.
               That included plans (other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans)
               that:  1) bought shares  costing  $500,000 or more, 2) had at the
               time of purchase  100 or more  eligible  employees  or total plan
               assets of $500,000 or more,  or 3) certified  to the  Distributor
               that it projects to have  annual  plan  purchases  of $200,000 or
               more.

               Purchases by an  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Rollover IRA, if the
               purchases are made:

               1)  through  a  broker,  dealer,  bank or  registered  investment
               adviser that has made special  arrangements  with the Distributor
               for those purchases, or

                    2) by a direct  rollover of a distribution  from a qualified
                    Retirement Plan if the  administrator  of that Plan has made
                    special   arrangements   with  the   Distributor  for  those
                    purchases.

                    Purchases  of Class A shares by  Retirement  Plans that have
                    any of the following record-keeping arrangements:

                    1) The record  keeping is performed by Merrill  Lynch Pierce
                    Fenner & Smith, Inc.  ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation
                    basis for the Retirement  Plan. On the date the plan sponsor
                    signs the  record-keeping  service  agreement  with  Merrill
                    Lynch,  the Plan must have $3  million or more of its assets
                    invested in (a) mutual  funds,  other than those  advised or
                    managed  by  Merrill  Lynch  Investment   Management,   L.P.
                    ("MLIM"),  that are made available under a Service Agreement
                    between  Merrill  Lynch  and  the  mutual  fund's  principal
                    underwriter or distributor, and (b) funds advised or managed
                    by MLIM (the funds  described in (a) and (b) are referred to
                    as "Applicable Investments").

                    2) The record keeping for the  Retirement  Plan is performed
                    on a daily valuation basis by a record keeper whose services
                    are  provided  under a contract or  arrangement  between the
                    Retirement  Plan  and  Merrill  Lynch.  On the date the plan
                    sponsor  signs the record  keeping  service  agreement  with
                    Merrill Lynch,  the Plan must have $3 million or more of its
                    assets  (excluding  assets  invested in money market  funds)
                    invested in Applicable Investments.

                    3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under
                    a service  agreement  with Merrill Lynch and on the date the
                    plan sponsor signs that agreement,  the Plan has 500 or more
                    eligible  employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan
                    conversion manager).

II.     Waivers of Class A Sales Charges of Oppenheimer Funds


                    A. Waivers of Initial and Contingent  Deferred Sales Charges
                    for Certain Purchasers.

                    Class A shares purchased by the following  investors are not
                    subject to any Class A sales charges (and no concessions are
                    paid by the Distributor on such  purchases):  The Manager or
                    its affiliates.

                    Present  or  former   officers,   directors,   trustees  and
                    employees (and their "immediate  families") of the Fund, the
                    Manager and its affiliates, and retirement plans established
                    by them for their  employees.  The term  "immediate  family"
                    refers   to   one's   spouse,    children,    grandchildren,
                    grandparents, parents, parents-in-law, brothers and sisters,
                    sons- and  daughters-in-law,  a sibling's spouse, a spouse's
                    siblings,  aunts, uncles,  nieces and nephews;  relatives by
                    virtue of a remarriage (step-children,  step-parents,  etc.)
                    are included.

                    Registered  management  investment  companies,  or  separate
                    accounts of insurance companies having an agreement with the
                    Manager or the Distributor for that purpose.

                    Dealers  or  brokers  that have a sales  agreement  with the
                    Distributor,  if they purchase shares for their own accounts
                    or for retirement plans for their employees.

                    Employees and registered representatives (and their spouses)
                    of  dealers  or  brokers   described   above  or   financial
                    institutions that have entered into sales  arrangements with
                    such dealers or brokers (and which are identified as such to
                    the Distributor) or with the Distributor. The purchaser must
                    certify to the  Distributor at the time of purchase that the
                    purchase  is for the  purchaser's  own  account  (or for the
                    benefit of such employee's spouse or minor children).

                    Dealers,  brokers,  banks or registered  investment advisors
                    that have  entered into an  agreement  with the  Distributor
                    providing  specifically for the use of shares of the Fund in
                    particular  investment  products  made  available  to  their
                    clients.  Those clients may be charged a transaction  fee by
                    their  dealer,  broker,  bank or advisor for the purchase or
                    sale of Fund shares.

                    Investment  advisors and financial planners who have entered
                    into an agreement for this purpose with the  Distributor and
                    who charge an  advisory,  consulting  or other fee for their
                    services  and buy  shares  for  their  own  accounts  or the
                    accounts of their clients.

                    "Rabbi  trusts" that buy shares for their own  accounts,  if
                    the  purchases  are made  through a broker or agent or other

                    death or disability must have occurred after the account was
                    established, and for disability you must provide evidence of

                    records are maintained on a daily valuation basis by Merrill

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

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

          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.

                    maximum sales charge rate of 4.50%.

                    without sales charge:

                    the Manager and its affiliates,  present or former officers,
                    directors,  trustees  and  employees  (and their  "immediate
                    families" as defined in the Fund's  Statement of  Additional
                    Information)  of the Fund,  the Manager and its  affiliates,
                    and  retirement  plans  established  by  them  or the  prior
                    investment advisor of the Fund for their employees,

                    registered   management  investment  companies  or  separate
                    accounts of insurance  companies  that had an agreement with
                    the Fund's prior investment  advisor or distributor for that
                    purpose,

                    dealers  or  brokers  that have a sales  agreement  with the
                    Distributor,  if they purchase shares for their own accounts
                    or for retirement plans for their employees,

                    employees and registered representatives (and their spouses)
                    of dealers or brokers  described in the preceding section or
                    financial   institutions   that  have   entered  into  sales
                    arrangements  with  those  dealers  or  brokers  (and  whose
                    identity  is made  known  to the  Distributor)  or with  the
                    Distributor,  but  only if the  purchaser  certifies  to the
                    Distributor at the time of purchase that the purchaser meets
                    these qualifications,

                    dealers, brokers, or registered investment advisors that had
                    entered into an agreement with the  Distributor or the prior
                    distributor of the Fund  specifically  providing for the use
                    of  Class  M  shares  of the  Fund  in  specific  investment
                    products made available to their clients, and

                    dealers,  brokers or registered investment advisors that had
                    entered  into an  agreement  with the  Distributor  or prior
                    distributor  of the Fund's  shares to sell shares to defined
                    contribution employee retirement plans for which the dealer,
                    broker,  or  investment   advisor  provides   administrative
                    services.

                    1 In accordance  with Rule 12b-1 of the  Investment  Company
                    Act, the term  "Independent  Trustees" in this  Statement of
                    Additional  Information refers to those Trustees who are not
                    "interested  persons"  of the  Fund  and who do not have any
                    direct or indirect  financial  interest in the  operation of
                    the distribution plan or any agreement under the plan.



                    2  Certain   waivers   also  apply  to  Class  M  shares  of
                    Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund.

                    3 In the case of  Oppenheimer  Senior  Floating Rate Fund, a
                    continuously-offered    closed-end   fund,   references   to
                    contingent  deferred  sales  charges  mean the Fund's  Early
                    Withdrawal  Charges and  references  to  "redemptions"  mean
                    "repurchases" of shares.

                    4 An "employee  benefit plan" means any plan or arrangement,
                    whether or not it is "qualified"  under the Internal Revenue
                    Code,  under which Class N shares of an Oppenheimer  fund or
                    funds are  purchased by a fiduciary  or other  administrator
                    for the  account  of  participants  who are  employees  of a
                    single  employer  or  of  affiliated  employers.  These  may
                    include,  for example,  medical  savings  accounts,  payroll
                    deduction plans or similar plans.  The fund accounts must be
                    registered  in the name of the  fiduciary  or  administrator
                    purchasing the shares for the benefit of participants in the
                    plan.

                    5 The term "Group  Retirement  Plan" means any  qualified or
                    non-qualified retirement plan for employees of a corporation
                    or  sole   proprietorship,   members  and   employees  of  a
                    partnership  or  association  or  other  organized  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.

                    6 However,  that concession will not be paid on purchases of
                    shares in amounts of $1 million or more (including any right
                    of  accumulation)  by a  Retirement  Plan  that pays for the
                    purchase with the  redemption  proceeds of Class C shares of
                    one or more Oppenheimer funds held by the Plan for more than
                    one year.

                    7 This provision does not apply to IRAs.

                    8 This provision only applies to qualified  retirement plans
                    and 403(b)(7)  custodial  plans after your  separation  from
                    service in or after the year you reached age 55.

                    9  The   distribution   must  be  requested  prior  to  Plan
                    termination or the elimination of the  Oppenheimer  funds as
                    an investment option under the Plan.

                    10 This provision does not apply to IRAs.

                    11 This  provision  does not apply to loans  from  403(b)(7)
                    custodial       plans      and      loans      from      the
                    OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.

                    12 This  provision  does not  apply to  403(b)(7)  custodial
                    plans if the participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
