Additional Information About Investment Policies and Risks

     The investment  objectives,  the principal investment policies and the main
risks of each Portfolio are described in the Prospectus for that Portfolio. This
Statement of Additional  Information  contains  supplemental  information  about
those  policies  and  risks  and the types of  securities  that the  Portfolios'
investment  Manager,  OppenheimerFunds,  Inc.,  can select  for the  Portfolios.
Additional information is also provided about the strategies that each Portfolio
may use to try to achieve its objective.

Investment  Policies.  The  composition  of the  investment  portfolio  of  each
Portfolio and the techniques  and strategies  that the Manager uses in selecting
investment  securities  will vary over time.  The Portfolios are not required to
use all of the investment techniques and strategies described below at all times
in seeking their goal.  They may use some of the special  investment  techniques
and strategies at some times or not at all.

     In the discussion of the investment strategies of the Portfolios below, the
Portfolios are categorized  according to the types of investments they primarily
make. Total Return  Portfolio,  Growth  Portfolio and Oppenheimer  International
Growth  Fund/VA are  referred  to as "Equity  Portfolios,"  because  they invest
mainly or substantially in common stocks and other equity securities. Government
Securities  Portfolio is referred to as a "Fixed Income Portfolio,"  because the
main emphasis of its investment program is debt securities.  However a Portfolio
is referred to in general,  the discussion  below of particular  investments and
strategies  indicates  which  Portfolios can use that investment or technique as
part of their investment program.  For example,  some investments can be held by
only some of the  Portfolios  and some can be held by all.  Please  refer to the
Prospectus  of a  particular  Portfolio  for an  explanation  of  its  principal
investment policies and risks.

     |X| Equity  Securities.  The Equity Portfolios invest in equity securities,
which  include  common  stocks,  preferred  stocks,  rights  and  warrants,  and
securities  convertible  into common stock.  Certain  equity  securities  may be
selected  for  some  of  the   Portfolios   not  only  for  their   appreciation
possibilities but because they may provide dividend income.

     The  capitalization  ranges  of  the  issuers  of  equity  securities  that
particular  Portfolios invest in are discussed in the Prospectuses.  Some of the
Portfolios  may emphasize  securities  of issuers in one or more  capitalization
ranges,  such as mid-cap and large-cap issuers.  "Capitalization"  refers to the
market  capitalization of a company,  which, in general terms, is the value of a
company  determined  by the total  market  value of its issued  and  outstanding
common stock.  There are no fixed dollar amounts for  particular  capitalization
ranges,  and the ranges currently used by the Portfolios may change over time as
investors change their views as to what, for example,  a "small-cap"  company is
in relation to "mid-cap" and "large-cap" as the stock market changes.  Different
Portfolios  may also have different  definitions  of what  constitutes a small-,
mid- or large-cap issuer.

     Small-cap  growth  companies  may offer greater  opportunities  for capital
appreciation  than securities of large,  more  established  companies.  However,
these securities also involve greater risks than securities of larger companies.
Securities  of small  capitalization  issuers  may be subject  to greater  price
volatility  in general  than  securities  of  large-cap  and mid-cap  companies.
Therefore,   to  the  degree  that  a  Portfolio  has   investments  in  smaller
capitalization  companies at times of market volatility,  that Portfolio's share
price may fluctuate  more.  Those  investments  may be limited to the extent the
Manager  believes  that  such  investments   would  be  inconsistent   with  the
Portfolio's investment objective.

     |_| Growth  Companies (All Equity  Portfolios).  The Equity  Portfolios can
invest in securities of "growth" companies. Growth companies are those companies
that the Manager  believes are entering  into a growth cycle in their  business,
with the  expectation  that their  stock  will  increase  in value.  They may be
established  companies  as well as newer  companies  in the  development  stage.
Growth companies may have a variety of  characteristics  that in the view of the
portfolio manager of a Portfolio defines them as "growth" issuers.

     Growth companies may include  companies that are generating or applying new
technologies,  new or improved distribution techniques or new services. They may
own or develop  natural  resources.  They may be companies that can benefit from
changing  consumer  demands or  lifestyles,  or  companies  that have  projected
earnings in excess of the average for their  sector or  industry.  In each case,
they have  prospects that the portfolio  manager  believes are favorable for the
long term.

     |_|  Preferred  Stocks (All Equity  Portfolios).  Preferred  stock,  unlike
common  stock,  has a  stated  dividend  rate  payable  from  the  corporation's
earnings.  Preferred  stock  dividends  may  be  cumulative  or  non-cumulative,
participating,  or auction rate. "Cumulative" dividend provisions require all or
a portion of prior unpaid  dividends to be paid before  dividends can be paid on
the issuer's common stock.  Preferred stock may be "participating"  stock, which
means that it may be entitled  to a dividend  exceeding  the stated  dividend in
certain cases.

     If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred  stocks may be less
attractive,  causing the price of preferred  stocks to decline.  Preferred stock
may have mandatory sinking fund provisions, as well as provisions allowing calls
or redemptions  prior to maturity,  which also have a negative  impact on prices
when interest rates decline.  The rights of preferred stock on distribution of a
corporation's assets in the event of a liquidation are generally  subordinate to
the rights  associated with a  corporation's  debt  securities.  Preferred stock
generally  has  a  preference  over  common  stock  on  the  distribution  of  a
corporation's assets in the event of liquidation of the corporation.

     |_| Convertible Securities (All Equity Portfolios).  While some convertible
securities are a form of debt security,  in some cases their conversion  feature
(allowing  conversion  into the  issuer's  common  stock) may cause a  portfolio
manager  to regard  them as "equity  equivalents."  In those  cases,  the rating
assigned to the security has less impact on the portfolio  manager's  investment
decision  with  respect  to   convertible   securities   than  in  the  case  of
non-convertible fixed income securities. Convertible debt securities are subject
to  the  credit  risks  and  interest  rate  risks   described  below  in  "Debt
Securities."

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

     To determine whether  convertible  securities should be regarded as "equity
equivalents," the portfolio managers typically examine the following factors:

(1) whether,  at the option of the  investor,  the  convertible  security can be
exchanged for a fixed number of shares of common stock of the issuer,

(2) whether the issuer of the  convertible  securities has restated its earnings
per share of common stock on a fully  diluted basis  (considering  the effect of
conversion of the convertible securities), and

(3) the extent to which the  convertible  security  may be a  defensive  "equity
substitute,"  providing the ability to  participate in any  appreciation  in the
price of the issuer's common stock.

     |_| Rights and Warrants  (All Equity  Portfolios).  Warrants  basically are
options to purchase  equity  securities at specific  prices valid for a specific
period of time.  Their prices do not necessarily  move parallel to the prices of
the underlying  securities.  Rights are similar to warrants, but normally have a
short duration and are distributed  directly by the issuer to its  shareholders.
Rights and warrants  have no voting  rights,  receive no  dividends  and have no
rights with respect to the assets of the issuer. A Portfolio may invest up to 5%
of its total assets in warrants or rights.  That 5% limitation does not apply to
warrants a Portfolio has acquired as part of units with other securities or that
are attached to other securities.  No more than 2% of a Portfolio's total assets
may be  invested  in  warrants  that are not listed on either The New York Stock
Exchange or The American Stock Exchange.

     |X| Foreign Securities (All Equity  Portfolios).  Each Equity Portfolio can
invest in foreign  securities,  consistent  with any limitations a Portfolio may
have on foreign  investing  set forth in its  Prospectus  or this  Statement  of
Additional  Information.  These may include debt and equity securities issued by
companies  or  governmental  issuers in developed  countries or emerging  market
countries.  Growth  Portfolio and Total Return  Portfolio  have  non-fundamental
policies,   described  in  "Investment  Restrictions,"  below,  that  limit  the
percentage of their assets that can be invested in foreign securities.

     The Portfolios can invest in obligations of foreign  branches of U.S. banks
and U.S. branches of foreign banks. These investments are subject to some of the
risks of foreign  securities and do not offer the protection of Federal  Deposit
Insurance Corporation insurance.

     Investing in foreign  securities  offers  potential  benefits not available
from  investing  solely in  securities  of domestic  issuers.  They  include the
opportunity  to invest in foreign  issuers that appear to offer growth or income
potential,  or in foreign  countries with economic  policies or business  cycles
different from those of the U.S., or to reduce  fluctuations  in portfolio value
by taking  advantage  of  foreign  stock or bond  markets  that do not move in a
manner parallel to U.S. markets. In buying foreign  securities,  a Portfolio may
convert  U.S.  dollars  into  foreign  currency,  but only to effect  securities
transactions  on  foreign  securities  exchanges  and  not to use  currency  for
speculative  purposes  or  to  hold  it as an  investment.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  Oppenheimer International Growth Fund/VA may invest up to 10% of its
net assets in the euro for investment purposes.

     With respect to each of the  Portfolios  except  Oppenheimer  International
Growth  Fund/VA,  securities of foreign issuers that are represented by American
Depository  Receipts (ADRs), or that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange or
traded  in  the  U.S.  over-the-counter  markets  are  not  considered  "foreign
securities" for the purposes of a Portfolio's  investment  allocations.  That is
because  they are not subject to many of the special  considerations  and risks,
discussed below, that apply to foreign securities traded and held abroad.

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

     |_| Risks of Foreign Investing. Investments in foreign securities may offer
special  opportunities  for investing but also present special  additional risks
and  considerations  not  typically  associated  with  investments  in  domestic
securities. Some of these additional risks are: o reduction of income by foreign
taxes; o fluctuation in value of foreign  investments due to changes in currency
rates,  currency  devaluation  or currency  control  regulations  (for  example,
currency  blockage);  o  transaction  charges for currency  exchange;  o lack of
public information about foreign issuers; o lack of uniform accounting, auditing
and  financial  reporting  standards in foreign  countries  comparable  to those
applicable to domestic issuers;  o less volume on foreign exchanges than on U.S.
exchanges;  o greater  volatility and less liquidity on foreign  markets than in
the  U.S.;  o  less  governmental  regulation  of  foreign  issuers,  securities
exchanges  and brokers than in the U.S.; o greater  difficulties  in  commencing
lawsuits;  o higher  brokerage  commission  rates than in the U.S.;  o increased
risks of delays in settlement of portfolio  transactions or loss of certificates
for portfolio  securities;  o possibilities in some countries of  expropriation,
confiscatory  taxation,  political,  financial or social  instability or adverse
diplomatic developments;  and o unfavorable differences between the U.S. economy
and foreign economies.

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

     |_| Special  Risks of Emerging  Markets.  Emerging and  developing  markets
abroad may also offer special opportunities for investing but have greater risks
than more developed foreign markets, such as those in Europe, Canada, Australia,
New  Zealand and Japan.  There may be even less  liquidity  in their  securities
markets,  and settlements of purchases and sales of securities may be subject to
additional  delays.  They are  subject to greater  risks of  limitations  on the
repatriation of income and profits because of currency  restrictions  imposed by
local  governments.  Those  countries may also be subject to the risk of greater
political and economic  instability,  which can greatly affect the volatility of
prices of securities in those  countries.  The portfolio  managers will consider
these factors when  evaluating  securities in these markets,  and the Portfolios
currently  do not  expect to invest a  substantial  portion  of their  assets in
emerging markets.

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

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

     |X| Debt  Securities.  The Portfolios can invest in debt securities to seek
their  objectives.  Foreign debt  securities are subject to the risks of foreign
securities described above. In general,  debt securities are also subject to two
additional types of risk: credit risk and interest rate risk.

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

     The  portfolios  can buy  rated  and  unrated  debt  securities.  In making
investments in debt securities,  the portfolio  managers may rely to some extent
on the  ratings  of rating  organizations  or it may use their own  research  to
evaluate a  security's  credit-worthiness.  If a  Portfolio  buys  unrated  debt
securities,   to   consider   them   part  of  the   Portfolio's   holdings   of
investment-grade  securities,  they  must be judged  by the  Manager  to be of a
quality  comparable  to  securities  rated  as  investment  grade  by  a  rating
organization.

     U.S. government  securities,  although unrated, are generally considered to
be equivalent to securities in the highest rating  categories.  Investment-grade
securities  are  securities  that are rated at least "Baa" by Moody's  Investors
Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's") or at least "BBB" by Standard  &  Poor's Ratings
Service  ("Standard  &  Poor's") or that have comparable  ratings by another
nationally-recognized rating organization.  The Portfolios other than Government
Securities Portfolio can also buy non-investment-grade debt securities (commonly
referred to as "junk bonds").

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

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

     |_| Lower-Grade  Securities (All Equity  Portfolios).  Because  lower-grade
securities  tend to offer  higher  yields than  investment-grade  securities,  a
Portfolio might invest in lower-grade securities to seek higher income.

     "Lower-grade"  debt  securities are those rated below  "investment  grade,"
which  means they have a rating  lower than "Baa" by Moody's or lower than "BBB"
by Standard &  Poor's or similar ratings by other rating  organizations.  If
they are unrated,  and are determined by the Manager to be of comparable quality
to debt securities rated below investment grade, they are considered part of the
Portfolio's holdings of lower-grade securities.

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

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

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

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

     Mortgage-related  securities  that are issued or  guaranteed by agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. government, discussed below under "U.S. Government
Securities,"  have relatively little credit risk (depending on the nature of the
issuer) but are subject to interest rate risks and prepayment risks.

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

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

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

     During  periods  of  rapidly   rising   interest   rates,   prepayments  of
mortgage-related  securities  may occur at slower than  expected  rates.  Slower
prepayments  effectively  may lengthen a  mortgage-related  security's  expected
maturity.  Generally,  that would cause the value of the  security to  fluctuate
more widely in responses to changes in interest  rates.  If the prepayments on a
Portfolio's   mortgage-related   securities  were  to  decrease   broadly,   the
sensitivity  of the  Portfolio's  share price to  interest  rate  changes  would
increase.

     As with other debt securities,  the values of  mortgage-related  securities
may be affected by changes in the market's perception of the creditworthiness of
the entity issuing the securities or guaranteeing them. Their values may also be
affected by changes in government regulations and tax policies.

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

(1)  pass-through  certificates  issued or  guaranteed  by  Government  National
Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie
Mae), or Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac),

(2) unsecuritized  mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing  Administration
or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans' Affairs,

(3) unsecuritized conventional mortgages,

(4) other mortgage-related securities, or

(5) any combination of the securities mentioned above.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     The yields to maturity  of I/Os and P/Os are very  sensitive  to  principal
repayments  (including   prepayments)  on  the  underlying  mortgages.   If  the
underlying  mortgages   experience  greater  than  anticipated   prepayments  of
principal,  a Portfolio might not fully recoup its investment in an I/O based on
those  assets.  If  underlying   mortgages   experience  less  than  anticipated
prepayments  of  principal,  the yield on the P/Os based on them  could  decline
substantially.

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

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

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

     |X| Money Market  Instruments  (All  Portfolios).  The following is a brief
description  of the types of the money  market  securities  the  Portfolios  can
invest in. Money market securities are high-quality, short-term debt instruments
that  may be  issued  by the  U.S.  government,  corporations,  banks  or  other
entities. They may have fixed, variable or floating interest rates.

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

     |_| Bank Obligations.  "Banks" include commercial banks,  savings banks and
savings  and loan  associations,  which may or may not be members of the Federal
Deposit   Insurance   Corporation.   The   Portfolios  can  buy  time  deposits,
certificates  of deposit and bankers'  acceptances.  They must be: o obligations
issued or  guaranteed  by a  domestic  bank  (including  a  foreign  branch of a
domestic bank) having total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion, or o obligations
of a foreign bank with total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion.

     |_| Commercial  Paper.  The Portfolios can invest in commercial paper if it
is rated within the top three rating  categories  of Standard  &  Poor's and
Moody's or other  rating  organizations.  If the paper is not  rated,  it may be
purchased if the Manager  determines  that it is comparable to rated  commercial
paper in the top three rating categories of national rating organizations.

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

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

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

     The  Portfolios  have no  limitations on the type of issuer from whom these
notes will be purchased.  However,  in connection  with such purchases and on an
ongoing basis, the portfolio  manager will consider the earning power, cash flow
and other liquidity  ratios of the issuer,  and its ability to pay principal and
interest on demand,  including  a  situation  in which all holders of such notes
made demand  simultaneously.  Investments  in master demand notes are subject to
the  limitation  on  investments  by  the  Portfolios  in  illiquid  securities.
Currently,  the  Portfolios  do not intend  that their  investments  in variable
amount master demand notes will exceed 5% of a Portfolio's total assets.

Other  Investment  Techniques and Strategies.  In seeking their  respective
objectives,  each  Portfolio  may from time to time use the types of  investment
strategies and investments  described  below. A Portfolio is not required to use
all of these strategies at all times, and at times may not use them.

Investment in Other Investment Companies.  The Portfolios can also invest in the
securities of other  investment  companies,  which can include  open-end  funds,
closed-end funds and unit investment trusts,  subject to the limits set forth in
the  Investment  Company  Act  that  apply to those  types of  investments.  For
example, the Portfolios can invest in Exchange-Traded Funds, which are typically
open-end  funds or unit  investment  trusts,  listed  on a stock  exchange.  The
Portfolios  might do so as a way of  gaining  exposure  to the  segments  of the
equity  or  fixed-income  markets  represented  by  the  Exchange-Traded  Funds'
portfolio,  at times when the Portfolio  may not be able to buy those  portfolio
securities directly.

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

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

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

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

     |X|  Asset-Backed  Securities  (Government  Securities  Portfolio and Total
Return Portfolio).  Asset-backed securities are fractional interests in pools of
assets,  typically  accounts  receivable or consumer  loans.  They are issued by
trusts or  special-purpose  corporations.  They are  similar to  mortgage-backed
securities,  described above, and are backed by a pool of assets that consist of
obligations of individual borrowers.  The income from the pool is passed through
to the holders of  participation  interest  in the pools.  The pools may offer a
credit enhancement,  such as a bank letter of credit, to try to reduce the risks
that the underlying debtors will not pay their obligations when due.

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

     |X|  Zero-Coupon  Securities  (All  Portfolios).  The  Portfolios  can  buy
zero-coupon and delayed-interest securities, and "stripped" securities. Stripped
securities are debt  securities  whose  interest  coupons are separated from the
security and sold  separately.  They can  include,  among  others,  foreign debt
securities  and U.S.  Treasury  notes or bonds that have been  stripped of their
interest  coupons,  U.S.  Treasury bills issued without  interest  coupons,  and
certificates representing interests in stripped securities.

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

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

     A Portfolio's  investment in zero-coupon securities may cause the Portfolio
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 Portfolio  might 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 Portfolio shares.

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

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

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

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

     At the time a Portfolio makes the commitment to purchase or sell a security
on a when-issued or  delayed-delivery  basis,  it records the transaction on its
books and  reflects  the value of the  security  purchased  in  determining  the
Portfolio's net asset value. In a sale  transaction,  it records the proceeds to
be received.  The  Portfolio  will  identify on its books liquid assets at least
equal in value to the value of the  Portfolio's  purchase  commitments  until it
pays for the investment.  Growth  Portfolio,  Oppenheimer  International  Growth
Fund/VA and Total Return Portfolio  anticipate that a Portfolio's  commitment to
purchase  when-issued  securities and forward commitments will not exceed 33% of
that  Portfolio's  total  assets  under  normal  market  conditions.  Government
Securities   Portfolio  can  invest  in   when-issued   securities  and  forward
commitments without limitation.

     When-issued and delayed-delivery transactions can be used by a Portfolio 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, a
Portfolio 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,  a Portfolio  might sell  portfolio
securities  and  purchase the same or similar  securities  on a  when-issued  or
delayed-delivery basis to obtain the benefit of currently higher cash yields.

     |X|  Repurchase  Agreements  (All  Portfolios).  A  Portfolio  can  acquire
securities  subject  to  repurchase  agreements.  It might  do so for  liquidity
purposes to meet anticipated redemptions of shares, or pending the investment of
the  proceeds  from sales of shares,  or pending  the  settlement  of  portfolio
securities transactions, or for temporary defensive purposes.

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

     The  majority  of these  transactions  run from  day to day,  and  delivery
pursuant to the resale typically occurs within one to five days of the purchase.
Repurchase  agreements  having a maturity  beyond  seven  days are  subject to a
Portfolio's limits on holding illiquid  investments.  A Portfolio will not enter
into a  repurchase  agreement  that causes more than 15% of its net assets to be
subject to repurchase  agreements  having a maturity beyond seven days. There is
no limit on the  amount of a  Portfolio's  net  assets  that may be  subject  to
repurchase agreements having maturities of seven days or less.

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

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

     |X| Illiquid and Restricted Securities (All Portfolios). Under the policies
and procedures established by the Board of Directors, the Manager determines the
liquidity of certain of a Portfolio's investments. To enable a Portfolio to sell
its holdings of a restricted security not registered under the Securities Act of
1933,  the Portfolio may have to cause those  securities to be  registered.  The
expenses of registering restricted securities may be negotiated by the Portfolio
with the  issuer  at the  time  the  Portfolio  buys  the  securities.  When the
Portfolio must arrange  registration  because it wishes to sell the security,  a
considerable period may elapse between the time the decision is made to sell the
security and the time the security is  registered  so that the  Portfolio  could
sell it. The Portfolio  would bear the risks of any downward  price  fluctuation
during that period.

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

     Each  Portfolio  has  limitations  that apply to  purchases  of  restricted
securities,  as stated in its Prospectus.  Those percentage  restrictions do not
limit purchases of restricted securities that are eligible for sale to qualified
institutional purchasers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, if those
securities have been determined to be liquid by the Manager under Board-approved
guidelines.  Those  guidelines  take into account the trading  activity for such
securities and the  availability of reliable  pricing  information,  among other
factors.  If there is a lack of  trading  interest  in a  particular  Rule  144A
security,  a  Portfolio's  holdings of that  security  may be  considered  to be
illiquid.  Illiquid  securities include repurchase  agreements  maturing in more
than seven days and  participation  interests that do not have puts  exercisable
within seven days.

     |X|  Municipal   Securities  (Total  Return  Portfolio).   These  are  debt
obligations   issued  by  the   governments   of  states  and  their   agencies,
instrumentalities  and  authorities,  as well as  their  political  subdivisions
(cities towns and counties, for example),  that are used to finance a variety of
public and private  purposes.  Those purposes  include  financing state or local
governments and financing specific public projects and facilities. The Portfolio
can invest in them because the portfolio  managers believe they offer attractive
yields relative to the yields and risks of other debt securities, rather than to
seek tax-exempt interest income for distribution to shareholders.

     |X| Floating  Rate and Variable  Rate  Obligations  (All  Portfolios).  The
interest rate on a floating rate note is adjusted  automatically  according to a
stated  prevailing  market rate,  such as a bank's  prime rate,  the 91-day U.S.
Treasury Bill rate, or some other standard.  The  instrument's  rate is adjusted
automatically  each  time the base  rate is  adjusted.  The  interest  rate on a
variable  rate  note is also  based on a stated  prevailing  market  rate but is
adjusted  automatically at specified  intervals.  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 portfolio  manager of a Portfolio  may determine  that an unrated
floating  rate  or  variable  rate  obligation  meets  the  Portfolio'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 no more than 30 days'  notice.  The tender may be at par value
plus accrued interest,  according to the terms of the obligations. 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.

     Step-coupon  bonds have a coupon  interest  rate that changes  periodically
during the life of the  security  on  predetermined  dates that are set when the
security is issued.

     |X| "Structured"  Notes (Government  Securities  Portfolio and Total Return
Portfolio).   "Structured"   notes  are   specially-designed   derivative   debt
investments with principal  payments or interest payments that are linked to the
value of an index (such as a currency or  securities  index) or  commodity.  The
terms of the instrument may be "structured" by the purchaser (the Portfolio) and
the borrower issuing the note.

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

     |X| Inverse  Floaters  (Government  Securities  Portfolio  and Total Return
Portfolio).  "Inverse floaters" are debt obligations on which the interest rates
typically  fall as market  rates  increase  and  increase as market  rates fall.
Changes in market interest rates or the floating rate of the security  inversely
affect the residual interest rate of an inverse floater.  As a result, the price
of an  inverse  floater  will  be  considerably  more  volatile  than  that of a
fixed-rate obligation when interest rates change.

     To  provide  investment  leverage,  an  issuer  might  decide  to issue two
variable rate obligations  instead of a single  long-term,  fixed-rate bond. The
interest rate on one obligation reflects short-term interest rates. The interest
rate on the other instrument, the inverse floater, reflects the approximate rate
the issuer would have paid on a fixed-rate bond,  multiplied by a factor of two,
minus  the rate  paid on the  short-term  instrument.  The two  portions  may be
recombined to create a fixed-rate  bond. A Portfolio might acquire both portions
of that  type of  offering,  to  reduce  the  effect  of the  volatility  of the
individual  securities.  This provides a flexible  portfolio  management tool to
vary the  degree of  investment  leverage  efficiently  under  different  market
conditions.

     Inverse floaters may offer  relatively high current income,  reflecting the
spread between  short-term and long-term  tax-exempt  interest rates. As long as
the 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. A Portfolio  might invest in inverse  floaters to
seek higher 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 a Portfolio  when the  Portfolio has invested in inverse
floaters  that expose the  Portfolio  to the risk of  short-term  interest  rate
fluctuations.  "Embedded" caps might be used to hedge a portion of a Portfolio'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
Portfolio  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,
can be used to increase or decrease a Portfolio'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 a Portfolio if the portfolio
manager judges market conditions incorrectly or employs a strategy that does not
correlate well with the  Portfolio's  other  investments.  These  techniques can
cause losses if the  counterparty  does not perform its promises.  An additional
risk of investing in 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 securities that are not derivative  investments but have similar credit
quality, redemption provisions and maturities.

Loans  of  Portfolio  Securities  (All  Portfolios).  Besides  using  repurchase
transactions,   Oppenheimer   International  Growth  Fund/VA  and  Total  Return
Portfolio  can  lend  its  portfolio  securities  in  amounts  up to  10% of the
Portfolio's  total assets.  Oppenheimer  International  Growth Fund/VA and Total
Return  Portfolio  currently  do not use this  strategy,  but if they do so they
expect to limit such loans to not more than 5% of their total assets.  Loans can
be made to brokers,  dealers and other types of financial  institutions approved
by the Board of Directors.

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

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

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

Interfund  Borrowing and Lending  Arrangements.  Consistent with its fundamental
policies and pursuant to an  exemptive  order issued by the SEC, the  Portfolios
may  engage  in  borrowing  and  lending  activities  with  other  funds  in the
OppenheimerFunds  complex.  Borrowing money from affiliated funds may afford the
Portfolios the flexibility to use the most cost-effective alternative to satisfy
its borrowing  requirements.  Lending money to an affiliated  fund may allow the
Portfolios 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.

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

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

o the Portfolios  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 Portfolio;

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

o the Portfolio  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 Portfolio; and

o the Directors  will be provided  with a report of all interfund  loans and the
Directors  will  monitor  all such  borrowings  to ensure  that the  Portfolio'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 Portfolio might have to borrow from a bank at
a higher  interest  cost if  money  to lend  were  not  available  from  another
Oppenheimer fund.

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

o the Portfolio will not lend money to affiliated funds unless the interest rate
on such loan is determined under the terms of the exemptive order;

o the Portfolio 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
Portfolio'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  Directors  reports  on all  interfund  loans
demonstrating  that the  Portfolio's  participation  is appropriate and that the
loan is consistent with its investment objectives and policies.

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

     Borrowing.  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),  except that a fund may
borrow up to 5% of its total  assets for  temporary  purposes  from any  person.
Under the Investment Company Act, there is a rebuttable  presumption that a loan
is  temporary if it is repaid  within 60 days and not extended or renewed.  As a
matter of fundamental  policy,  the Portfolios are authorized to borrow up to 33
1/3% of its total assets. During periods of substantial borrowings, the value of
the Portfolio's  assets would be reduced due to the added expense of interest on
borrowed monies.  The Portfolio is authorized to borrow, and to pledge assets to
secure  such  borrowings,  up  to  the  maximum  extent  permissible  under  the
Investment Company Act (i.e.,  presently 50% of net assets).  Any such borrowing
will be made only pursuant to the requirements of the Investment Company Act and
will be made only to the extent that the value of each  Portfolio's  assets less
its  liabilities,  other  than  borrowings,  is equal  to at  least  300% of all
borrowings  including  the  proposed  borrowing.  If the value of a  Portfolio's
assets,  so computed,  should fail to meet the 300% asset coverage  requirement,
the Portfolio is required, within three business days to reduce its bank debt to
the extent  necessary to meet such requirement and may have to sell a portion of
its investments at a time when independent investment judgment would not dictate
such sale.  Interest on money  borrowed is an expense  the  Portfolio  would not
otherwise  incur, so that it may have little or no net investment  income during
periods of  substantial  borrowings.  Since  substantially  all of a Portfolio's
assets  fluctuate  in  value,  but  borrowing  obligations  are  fixed  when the
Portfolio  has  outstanding  borrowings,  the net  asset  value  per  share of a
Portfolio  correspondingly  will tend to  increase  and  decrease  more when the
Portfolio's  assets  increase or decrease in value than would  otherwise  be the
case.

     The Portfolio has the ability to borrow from banks on an unsecured basis to
invest the borrowed funds in portfolio securities. This speculative technique is
known as  "leverage."  The Portfolio may not borrow money,  except to the extent
permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations  thereunder
or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to the Portfolio, as such statute,
rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

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

     |X| Hedging  (All  Portfolios).  Although  the  Portfolios  can use certain
hedging  instruments  and  techniques,  they  are not  obligated  to use them in
seeking their  objectives.  A  Portfolio's  strategy of hedging with futures and
options on futures  will be  incidental  to the  Portfolio's  activities  in the
underlying cash market. The particular  hedging  instruments each Portfolios can
use are described below.

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

|_| Writing  Covered Call Options.  (All  Portfolios).  The Portfolios can write
(that is, sell) covered calls.  If a Portfolio  sells a call option,  it must be
covered.  That means the  Portfolio  must own the  security  subject to the call
while the call is outstanding,  or, for certain calls on indices and currencies,
the call may be covered by segregating liquid assets to enable that Portfolio to
satisfy its obligations if the call is exercised.  Up to 20% of each Portfolio's
total assets may be subject to calls the Portfolio writes.

     When a Portfolio writes a call on a security, it receives cash (a premium).
That  Portfolio  agrees to sell the  underlying  security  to a  purchaser  of a
corresponding  call on the  same  security  during  the call  period  at a fixed
exercise price  regardless of market price changes  during the call period.  The
call period is usually not more than nine months.  The exercise price may differ
from the market price of the underlying security.  The Portfolio shares 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  Portfolio
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
Portfolio would keep the cash premium and the investment.

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

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

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

     To  terminate  its  obligation  on a call it has written,  a Portfolio  may
purchase a corresponding call in a "closing purchase transaction." The Portfolio
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
Portfolio  wrote  is more or less  than the  price  of the  call  the  Portfolio
purchases to close out the  transaction.  The  Portfolio may realize a profit if
the call expires  unexercised,  because the Portfolio will retain the underlying
security  and the premium it received  when it wrote the call.  Any such profits
are considered  short-term capital gains for federal income tax purposes, as are
the premiums on lapsed calls.  If a Portfolio  cannot effect a closing  purchase
transaction  due to the lack of a  market,  it will  have to hold  the  callable
securities until the call expires or is exercised.

     The  Portfolios may also write calls on a futures  contract  without owning
the  futures  contract  or  securities   deliverable  under  the  contract.  The
Portfolios  may use call  options  on  futures  contracts  solely  for bona fide
hedging purposes. To do so, at the time the call is written, the Portfolios must
cover the call by segregating on its books an equivalent dollar amount of liquid
assets. A Portfolio will segregate  additional liquid assets if the value of the
segregated  assets drops below 100% of the current value of the future.  Because
of this segregation requirement, in no circumstances would a Portfolio's receipt
of an exercise  notice as to that future  require  the  Portfolios  to deliver a
futures contract. It would simply put the Portfolio in a short futures position,
which is permitted by the Portfolios' hedging policies.

     |_| Writing Put Options.  (All Portfolios) The Portfolios can also sell put
options on futures.  A put option on securities gives the purchaser the right to
sell,  and the writer the  obligation to buy, the  underlying  investment at the
exercise price during the option period.  The Portfolios will not write puts, if
as a result,  more than 50% of the Portfolios net assets would be required to be
identified on its books to cover such options.

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

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

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

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

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

     |_| Purchasing Calls and Puts. (All Portfolios) The Portfolios can purchase
calls to protect against the possibility that its investment  portfolio will not
participate in an anticipated  rise in the securities  market.  When a Portfolio
buys a call (other than in a closing purchase  transaction),  it pays a premium.
The Portfolio then has the right to buy the underlying  investment from a seller
of a corresponding call on the same investment during the call period at a fixed
exercise price.

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

     When a Portfolio  purchases a put, it pays a premium and, except as to puts
on indices, has the right to sell the underlying investment to a seller of a put
on a corresponding investment during the put period at a fixed exercise price.

     Buying  a put on  securities  or  futures  a  Portfolio  owns  enables  the
Portfolio to attempt to protect  itself during the put period  against a decline
in the value of the  underlying  investment  below the exercise price by selling
the underlying  investment at the exercise price to a seller of a  corresponding
put. If the market price of the  underlying  investment is equal to or above the
exercise  price and, as a result,  the put is not  exercised or resold,  the put
will become  worthless at its  expiration  date. In that case the Portfolio will
have  paid the  premium  but lost the right to sell the  underlying  investment.
However,  the Portfolio may sell the put prior to its expiration.  That sale may
or may not be at a profit.

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

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

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

     |_| Buying and Selling  Options on Foreign  Currencies.  All Portfolios can
sell exchange-traded call options on foreign currencies.  Government  Securities
Portfolio   and   Oppenheimer   International   Growth   Fund/VA  can  also  buy
exchange-traded  calls on foreign currencies.  Oppenheimer  International Growth
Fund/VA can buy call options on currencies in the OTC markets. A Portfolio could
use these  calls to try to  protect  against  declines  in the  dollar  value of
foreign  securities  and increases in the dollar cost of foreign  securities the
Portfolio wants to acquire.

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

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

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

     |_| Futures.  The Portfolios have different policies and limitations on the
purchase and sale of futures contracts:

o Each Portfolio can buy and sell future contracts on stock indices.

o Each Portfolio can buy and sell futures contracts on individual stocks.

o  Total  Return  Portfolio,   Oppenheimer   International  Growth  Fund/VA  and
Government   Securities  Portfolio  may  buy  and  sell  interest  rate  futures
contracts.

o Each portfolio that can invest in securities  denominated in foreign  currency
can purchase and sell futures on foreign currencies.

o  Total  Return  Portfolio,   Oppenheimer   International  Growth  Fund/VA  and
Government  Securities  Portfolio can buy and sell futures  contracts related to
financial indices.

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

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

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

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

     |_|  Forward  Contracts  (All Equity  Portfolios).  Forward  contracts  are
foreign  currency  exchange  contracts.  They  are  used to buy or sell  foreign
currency for future delivery at a fixed price. A Portfolio can use them to "lock
in" the U.S. dollar price of a security  denominated in a foreign  currency that
the  Portfolio has bought or sold, or to protect  against  possible  losses from
changes in the  relative  values of the U.S.  dollar and a foreign  currency.  A
Portfolio  may also use  "cross-hedging"  where  the  Portfolio  hedges  against
changes in  currencies  other than the  currency in which a security it holds is
denominated.

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

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

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

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

     A Portfolio will cover its short positions in these cases by identifying on
its books  liquid  assets  having a value equal to the  aggregate  amount of the
Portfolio's  commitment under forward contracts. A Portfolio will not enter into
forward  contracts  or  maintain  a  net  exposure  to  such  contracts  if  the
consummation  of the contracts would obligate the Portfolio to deliver an amount
of foreign currency in excess of the value of its portfolio  securities or other
assets  denominated in that currency or another  currency that is the subject of
the hedge.

     However,  to avoid excess  transactions and transaction  costs, a Portfolio
may maintain a net  exposure to forward  contracts in excess of the value of its
portfolio  securities or other assets  denominated in foreign  currencies if the
excess amount is "covered" by liquid securities denominated in any currency. The
cover must be at least equal at all times to the amount of that  excess.  As one
alternative,  the Portfolio may purchase a call option permitting it to purchase
the amount of foreign  currency  being  hedged by a forward  sale  contract at a
price no higher than the forward  contract  price. As another  alternative,  the
Portfolio may purchase a put option  permitting it to sell the amount of foreign
currency  subject to a forward  purchase  contract  at a price as high or higher
than the forward contract price.

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

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

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

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

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

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

     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 a  Portfolio  under a swap  agreement  will be greater  than the  payments it
received.  Credit risk arises from the possibility  that the  counterparty  will
default. If the counterparty  defaults, the Portfolio's loss will consist of the
net amount of  contractual  interest  payments  that the  Portfolio  has not yet
received.  The Manager will monitor the  creditworthiness of counterparties to a
Portfolio's interest rate swap transactions on an ongoing basis.

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

     |_|  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 a Portfolio's  return.  A Portfolio
could also experience  losses if the prices of its futures and options positions
were not correlated with its other investments.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     Transactions  in  options by the  Portfolios  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 a Portfolio 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  Portfolio  (or an adviser
that is an affiliate of the Portfolio's  investment advisor). The exchanges also
impose  position  limits on  futures  transactions.  An  exchange  may order the
liquidation of positions found to be in violation of those limits and may impose
certain other sanctions.

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

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

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

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

(1) gains or losses  attributable  to  fluctuations in exchange rates that occur
between the time a Portfolio  accrues  interest or other  receivables or accrues
expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the
Portfolio actually collects such receivables or pay such liabilities, and

(2)  gains or  losses  attributable  to  fluctuations  in the value of a foreign
currency  between the date of  acquisition  of a debt security  denominated in a
foreign  currency  or  foreign  currency  forward  contracts  and  the  date  of
disposition.

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

     |X| Temporary Defensive  Investments.  When market conditions are unstable,
or the  Manager  believes  it is  otherwise  appropriate  to reduce  holdings in
stocks,  the Portfolios can invest in a variety of debt securities for defensive
purposes.  The  Portfolios  can also  purchase  these  securities  for liquidity
purposes to meet cash needs due to the  redemption  of Portfolio  shares,  or to
hold while waiting to reinvest  cash  received from the sale of other  portfolio
securities. The Portfolios can buy:

|_|   obligations   issued  or  guaranteed  by  the  U.  S.  government  or  its
instrumentalities or agencies,

|_| commercial  paper  (short-term,  unsecured,  promissory notes of domestic or
foreign  companies)  rated in the three top rating  categories  of a  nationally
recognized rating organization,

|_| short-term debt  obligations of corporate  issuers,  rated  investment grade
(rated at least Baa by Moody's or at least BBB by Standard  &  Poor's,  or a
comparable rating by another rating organization),  or unrated securities judged
by the  Manager  to have a  comparable  quality  to  rated  securities  in those
categories,

|_|  certificates  of deposit and bankers'  acceptances  of domestic and foreign
banks having total assets in excess of U.S. $1 billion, and

|_| repurchase agreements.

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

Investment Restrictions

     |X|  What  Are  "Fundamental  Policies?"  Fundamental  policies  are  those
policies that each Portfolio has adopted to govern its  investments  that can be
changed only by the vote of a "majority" of the Portfolio's  outstanding  voting
securities.  Under the Investment  Company Act, 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 Portfolios'  investment  objectives are not fundamental  policies,  but
will not be  changed  by the  Board  of  Directors  without  advance  notice  to
shareholders.  Other  policies  described in the Prospectus or this Statement of
Additional  Information are  "fundamental"  only if they are identified as such.
The Board of Directors can change  non-fundamental  policies without shareholder
approval. However,  significant changes to investment policies will be described
in  supplements  or updates to the  Prospectus  or this  Statement of Additional
Information,  as  appropriate.   The  Portfolios'  most  significant  investment
policies are described in the Prospectus.

     |X| Do the Portfolios Have Additional  Fundamental Policies?  The following
investment  restrictions  are  fundamental  policies of Total Return  Portfolio,
Growth Portfolio,  Government Securities Portfolio and Oppenheimer International
Growth Fund/VA.

|_| A  Portfolio  cannot  invest in  "senior  securities",  except to the extent
permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations  thereunder
or any exemption  therefrom that is applicable to the Company,  as such statute,
rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

|_| Total Return Portfolio and Growth Portfolio cannot concentrate  investments.
That means these  portfolios  cannot invest 25% or more of their total assets in
companies in any one industry. That limit does not apply to securities issued or
guaranteed  by the U.S.  government  or its  agencies and  instrumentalities  or
securities issued by investment companies.

|_| A Portfolio cannot invest in physical commodities or commodities  contracts.
However, a Portfolio can invest in hedging  instruments  permitted by any of its
other investment policies, and can buy or sell options,  futures,  securities or
other  instruments  backed by, or the investment return from which is linked to,
changes in the price of physical commodities, commodity contracts or currencies.

|_| A Portfolio  cannot  invest in real estate or in  interests  in real estate.
However,  a Portfolio can purchase  securities of issuers holding real estate or
interests in real estate (including securities of real estate investment trusts)
if permitted by its other investment policies.

|_| A Portfolio may not borrow money,  except to the extent  permitted under the
Investment  Company Act, the rules or  regulations  thereunder  or any exemption
therefrom  that  is  applicable  to the  Company,  as  such  statute,  rules  or
regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

|_| A  Portfolio  cannot make loans,  except to the extent  permitted  under the
Investment  Company Act, the rules or  regulations  thereunder  or any exemption
therefrom  that is  applicable  to the  Portfolio,  as such  statute,  rules  or
regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

|_| Total Return  Portfolio,  Growth  Portfolio  and  Oppenheimer  International
Growth Fund/VA 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
Portfolio's  total  assets.  The limit  does not apply to  securities  issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities or
securities of other investment companies.

|_| A Portfolio  cannot  underwrite  securities  of other  issuers.  A permitted
exception is if the Portfolio is deemed to be an underwriter  under the 1933 Act
in selling its investment securities.

Do the Portfolios Have Other Restrictions that are Not Fundamental Policies?

     The Portfolios have an additional  restriction on their investment policies
that is not  fundamental,  which  means  that it can be  changed by the Board of
Directors,  without obtaining  approval from the Portfolio's  outstanding voting
securities.

|_| Total Return  Portfolio and Growth  Portfolio cannot invest in securities of
foreign issuers if at the time of acquisition more than 10% of its total assets,
taken at  market  value,  would be  invested  in those  securities.  However,  a
Portfolio  can invest up to 25% of its total  assets in  securities  (i) issued,
assumed or  guaranteed  by foreign  governments,  or political  subdivisions  or
instrumentalities  thereof,  (ii)  assumed or  guaranteed  by domestic  issuers,
including  Eurodollar  securities,  or (iii)  issued,  assumed or  guaranteed by
foreign issuers having a class of securities  listed for trading on The New York
Stock Exchange.

How the Portfolios Are Managed

Organization and History.  Panorama Series Fund, Inc., the investment company of
which each  Portfolio is a series,  was  incorporated  in Maryland on August 17,
1981.  It is  referred  to as the  "Company"  in this  Statement  of  Additional
Information.  Prior to May 1, 1996,  the  Company was named  Connecticut  Mutual
Financial Services Series Fund I, Inc.

Classes of Shares. The Directors are authorized,  without shareholder  approval,
to create new  series  and  classes of  shares.  The  Directors  may  reclassify
unissued  shares of the Portfolio into  additional  series or classes of shares.
The Directors 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 a Portfolio.  Shares do not have cumulative voting rights or
preemptive or subscription rights.  Shares may be voted in person or by proxy at
shareholder meetings.

     Each  Portfolio  currently  has two classes of shares  authorized.  All the
Portfolios   offer  a  class  with  no  name  designation  and  the  Oppenheimer
International  Growth  Fund/VA  offers a Service  Share Class.  All classes of a
particular  portfolio  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 a Portfolio  represents an
interest in that Portfolio  proportionately  equal to the interest of each other
share of the same class.


Meetings of  Shareholders.  Although the Portfolios are not required by Maryland
law to hold annual meetings,  it may hold shareholder meetings from time to time
on important  matters.  The shareholders of the Portfolio's  parent  corporation
have the right to call a meeting to remove a Director or to take  certain  other
action described in the Articles of Incorporation or under Maryland law.

     The Portfolios  will hold meetings when required to do so by the Investment
Company Act or other applicable law. The Portfolios will hold a meeting when the
Directors  call a  meeting  or  upon  proper  request  of  shareholders.  If the
Portfolio's parent corporation  receives a written request of the record holders
of at least 25% of the  outstanding  shares eligible to be voted at a meeting to
call a meeting for a specified  purpose  (which  might  include the removal of a
Director),  the Directors will call a meeting of shareholders for that specified
purpose.  The  Portfolio's  parent  corporation has undertaken that it will then
either give the applicants  access to the Portfolio's  shareholder  list or mail
the  applicants'  communication  to all other  shareholders  at the  applicants'
expense.

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

     The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee and a Review  Committee.  The
Audit Committee is comprised solely of Independent Directors. The members of the
Audit Committee are Edward L. Cameron (Chairman),  William L. Armstrong,  George
C. Bowen and Robert J. Malone.  The Audit  Committee held 8 meetings  during the
fiscal year ended  December 31, 2002.  The Audit  Committee  furnishes the Board
with  recommendations  regarding  the selection of the  Portfolio's  independent
auditors. The Audit Committee furnishes the Board with recommendations regarding
the selection of the Portfolio's  independent auditors.  Other main functions of
the Audit Committee include, but are not limited to: (i) reviewing the scope and
results of audits and the audit fees charged;  (ii)  reviewing  reports from the
Portfolio's  independent  auditors regarding the Portfolio's internal accounting
procedures and controls; and (iii) establishing a separate line of communication
between the Portfolio's independent auditors and its independent Directors.

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

     To date,  the Committee has been able to identify from its own resources an
ample number of qualified candidates. Nonetheless, shareholders may submit names
of individuals,  accompanied by complete and properly supported resumes, for the
Audit Committee's  consideration by mailing such information to the Committee in
care of the  Portfolio.  The Committee may consider such persons at such time as
it meets to consider possible nominees.  The Committee,  however,  reserves sole
discretion  to  determine  the   candidates  to  present  to  the  Board  and/or
shareholders  when it meets for the purpose of considering  potential  nominees.
The  members of the Review  Committee  are Jon S. Fossel  (Chairman),  Robert G.
Avis, Sam Freedman,  Beverly  Hamilton and F. William  Marshall,  Jr. The Review
Committee held 7 meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.  Among
other functions,  the Review Committee reviews reports and makes recommendations
to the Board concerning the fees paid to the Portfolio's  transfer agent and the
services  provided to the Portfolio by the transfer agent.  The Review Committee
also reviews the Portfolio's  investment performance and policies and procedures
adopted  by the  Portfolio  to  comply  with  Investment  Company  Act and other
applicable law.

Directors and Officers of the Company.  Except Mr. Murphy, each of the Directors
is an  "Independent  Director,"  as defined in the  Investment  Company Act. Mr.
Murphy is an "Interested Director," because he is affiliated with the Manager by
virtue of his  positions  as an officer and  director of the  Manager,  and as a
shareholder of its parent  company.  Mr. Murphy was elected as a Director of the
Company  with the  understanding  that in the  event he  ceases  to be the chief
executive  officer of the  Manager,  he will resign as a director of the Company
and the other  Board II Funds  (defined  below)  for  which he is a  trustee  or
director.

     The  Company's  Directors  and officers and their  positions  held with the
Company  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  Directors  also includes the dollar
range of shares of the Company as well as the  aggregate  dollar range of shares
beneficially  owned in any of the  Oppenheimer  funds overseen by the Directors.
All of the Directors are also trustees or directors of the following Oppenheimer
funds  (except  for Ms.  Hamilton  and Mr.  Malone,  who  are  not  Trustees  of
Oppenheimer  Senior  Floating  Rate  Fund and Mr.  Murphy  is not a  Trustee  or
Managing General Partner of any of the Centennial trusts) (referred to as "Board
II Funds"):

Oppenheimer Cash Reserves                 Oppenheimer Select Managers
Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund          Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund

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

     Messrs.  Murphy,  Masterson,  Molleur,  Vottiero,  Wixted, Zack, Reinganum,
Monoyios, Evans, Bisbey and Steinmetz, and Mses. Bechtolt, Feld and Ives who are
officers of the Portfolios,  respectively hold the same offices with one or more
of the other  Board II Funds as with the  Portfolios.  As of April 4, 2003,  the
Directors  and  officers  of  the  Company,  as a  group,  owned  of  record  or
beneficially  less  than  1% of  the  outstanding  shares  of the  Company.  The
foregoing  statement  does not reflect  ownership of shares held of record by an
employee  benefit  plan for  employees  of the  Manager,  other  than the shares
beneficially  owned under that plan by the officers of the Company listed above.
In addition,  each  Independent  Director,  and his family  members,  do not own
securities  of either the  Manager or  Distributor  of the Board II Funds or any
person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control
with the Manager or Distributor.

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

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

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

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

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

     |X| Major  Shareholders.  As of April 4. 2003 all of the outstanding shares
of Government  Securities Portfolio were held by separate investment accounts of
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, 1295 State Street,  Springfield, MA
01111,  for variable  annuity  contracts,  variable life insurance  policies and
other investment  products owned by its customers.  The holders of 5% or more of
the  outstanding  shares of Growth  Portfolio  and Total Return  Portfolio  were
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, 1295 State Street,  Springfield, MA
01111.

The Manager. OppenheimerFunds, Inc., the Manager, is wholly-owned by Oppenheimer
Acquisition  Corporation,  a holding company controlled by Massachusetts  Mutual
Life Insurance Company.

     |X| Code of Ethics.  The Company,  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 a Portfolio's portfolio transactions.  Covered persons include
persons  with  knowledge  of the  investments  and  investment  intentions  of a
Portfolio 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 Portfolio,  subject to a number of  restrictions
and  controls.  Compliance  with the Code of Ethics is carefully  monitored  and
enforced by the Manager.

     Each Company's  Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Companys'  registration
statement filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission and can be reviewed
and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You can obtain
information about the hours of operation of the Public Reference Room by calling
the SEC at 1-202-942-8090.  The Code of Ethics can also be viewed as part of the
Company's  registration  statement  on the  SEC's  EDGAR  database  at the SEC's
Internet  web  site at  www.sec.gov.  Copies  may be  obtained,  after  paying a
duplicating  fee,  by  electronic  request  at  the  following  E-mail  address:
publicinfo@sec.gov.,  or by  writing  to the  SEC's  Public  Reference  Section,
Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

     |X| The Investment  Advisory  Agreement.  The Manager  provides  investment
management  services to each Portfolio  under an investment  advisory  agreement
between  the Manager  and the  respective  Portfolio.  The  investment  advisory
agreements require the Manager,  at its expense,  to provide each Portfolio with
adequate office space,  facilities and equipment.  They also require the Manager
to provide and  supervise  the  activities  of all  administrative  and clerical
personnel  required  to  provide  effective  corporate  administration  for each
Portfolio.  Those  responsibilities  include the  compilation and maintenance of
records with respect to its operations,  the preparation and filing of specified
reports, and the composition of proxy materials and registration  statements for
the continuous public sale of shares of the Portfolio.

     Expenses not expressly  assumed by the Manager under an advisory  agreement
or by the Distributor under the General Distributor's  Agreement are paid by the
relevant Portfolio. The advisory agreements list examples of expenses to be paid
by a  Portfolio.  The major  categories  relate to  interest,  taxes,  brokerage
commissions, fees to certain Directors, legal, and audit expenses, custodian and
transfer agent expenses, share issuance costs, certain printing and registration
costs and non-recurring expenses,  including litigation costs, expenses incident
to shareholder  meetings,  insurance  premiums,  and share redemption costs. The
management  fees paid by a Portfolio to the Manager are  calculated at the rates
listed in the  Portfolio's  Prospectus,  which are  applied to the assets of the
Portfolio as a whole. Whenever more than one class of shares is issued, the fees
are  allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative  proportion  of a
Company's net assets  represented by that class. The management fees paid by the
portfolios  to the Manager  during the  Portfolio's  last three fiscal years are
listed below.

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

     The  investment  advisory  agreements  state that in the absence of willful
misfeasance,  bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or
reckless  disregard of its obligations and duties under the investment  advisory
agreement,  the Manager is not liable for any loss resulting from any good faith
errors or  omissions  in  connection  with any  matters  to which the  agreement
relates.  Each  investment  advisory  agreement  permits  the  Manager to act as
investment adviser for any other person, firm or corporation.

     |X| Annual Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement.  Each year, the Board
of Directors,  including a majority of the Independent Directors, is required to
approve the renewal of the investment advisory agreement for each Portfolio. 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
Portfolio  pays with  respect to Service  shares.  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 agreements.  Among other factors,
     the Board considered:

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

o The profitability of the Portfolio to the Manager;

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

o Economies of scale that may be available to the Portfolio 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
Portfolio from its relationship with the Manager, and

o The direct and indirect  benefits the Manager  received from its  relationship
with the Portfolio.  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 each
     Portfolio.  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 Portfolio 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  Directors,
     meeting  separately  from the full  Board with  experienced  Counsel to the
     Independent  Directors  who  assisted the Board in its  deliberations.  The
     Counsel to the  Independent  Directors is independent of the Manager within
     the  meaning  and intent of the SEC Rules  regarding  the  independence  of
     counsel.

          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  agreements,  including the investment advisory
     fee, in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.

Brokerage Policies of the Portfolios

Brokerage Provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreements. One of the duties of
the  Manager  under  each  investment  advisory  agreement  is  to  arrange  the
investment securities  transactions for each Portfolio.  Each advisory agreement
contains provisions relating to the employment of broker-dealers  ("brokers") to
effect a Portfolio's  portfolio  transactions.  The Manager is authorized by the
advisory agreements to employ broker-dealers,  (including  "affiliated" brokers,
as that term is defined in the  Investment  Company Act). The Manager may employ
broker-dealers  that it  thinks,  in its best  judgment  based  on all  relevant
factors,  will implement the policy of each  Portfolio to obtain,  at reasonable
expense,  the "best execution" of a Portfolio's  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  required,  to the best of its ability,  to be aware of the current  rates of
eligible brokers and to minimize the expenses paid to the extent consistent with
the  interest  and  policies  of a  Portfolio  as  established  by the  Board of
Directors.

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

          Subject  to any  policy  established  by the Board of  Directors,  the
     Manager is  primarily  responsible  for the  investment  decisions  of each
     Portfolio  and for placing its  portfolio  transactions.  While the Manager
     generally  seeks  reasonably   competitive  spreads  or  commissions,   the
     Portfolios  will  not  necessarily  pay the  lowest  spread  or  commission
     available.

Description  of  Brokerage  Practices  Followed by the  Manager.  Subject to the
provisions of the advisory  agreements and the  procedures  and rules  described
above,  generally the Manager's  portfolio traders allocate brokerage based upon
recommendations  from the portfolio  managers.  In certain instances,  portfolio
managers may directly place trades and allocate  brokerage.  In either case, the
Manager's executive officers supervise the allocation of brokerage.

          Transactions  in securities  other than those for which an exchange is
     the primary market are generally done with principals or market makers.  In
     transactions on foreign exchanges, a Portfolio may be required to pay fixed
     brokerage  commissions  and  would  not  have  the  benefit  of  negotiated
     commissions  available  in U.S.  markets.  Brokerage  commissions  are paid
     primarily for effecting  transactions  in listed  securities or for certain
     fixed  income  agency  transactions  in  the  secondary  market.  Otherwise
     brokerage  commissions  are paid only if it  appears  likely  that a better
     price or execution  can be obtained by doing so. In an option  transaction,
     ordinarily a Portfolio uses the same broker for the purchase or sale of the
     option and any transaction in the securities to which the option relates.

          Most purchases of debt securities,  commercial paper, and money market
     instruments  made  by the  Portfolios  are  principal  transactions  at net
     prices,  and the  Portfolios  incur little or no brokerage  costs for these
     transactions.   Purchases  of  securities  from   underwriters   include  a
     commission  or  concession  paid  by the  issuer  to the  underwriter,  and
     purchases from dealers include a spread between the bid and asked price.

          Other funds advised by the Manager have investment policies similar to
     those of the  Portfolios.  Those other funds may  purchase or sell the same
     securities  as the  Portfolios  at the same time as the  Portfolios,  which
     could affect the supply and price of the  securities.  If two or more funds
     advised by the Manager  purchase the same security on the same day from the
     same dealer,  the transactions  under those combined orders are averaged as
     to price and  allocated  in  accordance  with the  purchase  or sale orders
     actually placed for each account.

          The  investment  advisory  agreements  permit 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
     for the  commissions  of those  other  accounts  may be useful  both to the
     Portfolios and one or more of the other accounts.  Investment  research may
     be  supplied 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 Board of Directors  permits the Manager to use stated  commissions
     on  secondary   fixed-income  trades  to  obtain  research  if  the  broker
     represents to the Manager that:  (i) the trade is not from the broker's own
     inventory,  (ii) the trade was executed by the broker on an agency basis at
     the  stated  commission,  and (iii) the trade is not a  riskless  principal
     transaction.  The Board of Directors permits the Manager to use commissions
     on fixed  price  offerings  to obtain  research,  in the same  manner as is
     permitted for agency transactions.

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

          No principal transactions and, except under unusual circumstances,  no
     agency transactions for Government  Securities Portfolio will be handled by
     any affiliated  securities  dealer.  In the unusual  circumstance when that
     Portfolio  pays  brokerage  commissions,   the  above-described   brokerage
     practices and policies are followed.

Distribution and Service Plans (Service Shares Only)

          Under  its  General  Distributor's  Agreements  with  the  Portfolios,
     OppenheimerFunds   Distributor,   Inc.  will  only  act  as  the  principal
     underwriter of the Portfolios' Service shares.

          Each  Portfolio  has  adopted a  Distribution  and  Service  Plan (the
     "Plan") for its Service shares under Rule 12b-1 of the  Investment  Company
     Act, pursuant to which each Portfolio will make payments to the Distributor
     in connection with the distribution and/or servicing of Service shares. The
     Distributor will pay insurance  company separate account sponsors and other
     entities that offer and/or provide services to Service shares, as described
     in the  Prospectus.  Each Plan has been approved by a vote of (i) the Board
     of  Directors  of the  Company,  including  a majority  of the  Independent
     Directors,  cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
     that Plan,  and (ii) the Manager as the  then-sole  initial  holder of such
     shares.

          Under the Plans,  no  payment  will be made to any  insurance  company
     separate  account  sponsor or affiliate  thereof under a  Portfolio's  Plan
     (each is referred to as a "Recipient")  in any quarter if the aggregate net
     assets of a Portfolio's Service shares held by the Recipient for itself and
     its  customers  did not  exceed  a  minimum  amount,  if any,  that  may be
     determined  from time to time by a majority  of the  Company's  Independent
     Directors.  The  Board of  Directors  has set the fee at  0.25% of  average
     annual net assets and set no minimum amount.

          Under the Plans,  the Manager and the Distributor may make payments to
     affiliates and, in their sole discretion,  from time to time, may use their
     own  resources  at no direct  cost to the  Portfolio  to make  payments  to
     brokers,  dealers or other  financial  institutions  for  distribution  and
     administrative services they perform.

          Unless  terminated as described  below,  each Plan continues in effect
     from  year to year but  only as long as such  continuance  is  specifically
     approved at least  annually by the  Company's  Board of  Directors  and its
     Independent  Directors by a vote cast in person at a meeting called for the
     purpose of voting on such  continuance.  Any Plan may be  terminated at any
     time by the vote of a majority of the Independent  Directors or by the vote
     of the holders of a "majority" (as defined in the  Investment  Company Act)
     of the outstanding  Service shares.  For purposes of voting with respect to
     the  Plans,   Account  owners  are  considered  to  be  shareholders  of  a
     Portfolio's  shares.  No Plan may be amended  to  increase  materially  the
     amount of payments to be made unless such  amendment is approved by Account
     owners of the class affected by the amendment. All material amendments must
     be approved by the Board and a majority of the Independent Directors.

          While the plans are in effect and Service shares are outstanding,  the
     Treasurer  of the Company  must  provide  separate  written  reports to the
     Company's  Board of Directors at least  quarterly  describing the amount of
     payments  made  pursuant  to each Plan.  These  reports  are subject to the
     review and approval of the Independent Directors.

          During  calendar  year  2002,  the  Oppenheimer  International  Growth
     Fund/VA paid to the  Distributor a total of $1,331 under its 12b-1 Plan for
     Service shares. The Distributor retained no portion of that amount. Service
     shares  were not issued  during  calendar  year 2002 for Growth  Portfolio,
     Total Return Portfolio and Government Securities Portfolio.

Performance of the Portfolios

Explanation of Performance Terminology. The Portfolios use a variety of terms to
illustrate  their  performance.  These terms  include  "standardized  yield" and
"dividend  yield" for the Government  Securities  Portfolio and "average  annual
total return" and "cumulative  total return" for all Portfolios.  An explanation
of how yields and total returns are  calculated  is set forth below.  The charts
below show the  performance  of the Portfolios as of the most recent fiscal year
end.  You can obtain  current  performance  information  by calling the Transfer
Agent at 1.800.981.2871.

          The  illustrations of performance data in  advertisements  must comply
     with rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Those rules describe
     the  types  of  performance  data  that  may be  used  and  how it is to be
     calculated. In general, any advertisement by a Portfolio of its performance
     data must include the average annual total returns for the Portfolio. Those
     returns must be shown for the 1- 5 and 10-year  periods (or the life of the
     class, if less) ending as of the most recently ended calendar quarter prior
     to  the   publication   of  the   advertisement   (or  its  submission  for
     publication). Certain types of yields may also be shown, provided that they
     are accompanied by standardized average annual total returns.

          Performance  information  for  Service  shares  is not  shown  for the
     following  Portfolios  since they were not offered  prior to  December  31,
     2002: Total Return  Portfolio,  Growth Portfolio and Government  Securities
     Portfolio.  Because  Service  shares are subject to an additional  fee, the
     performance is expected to be lower for any given period.

          The  Portfolios are not sold directly to members of the public but are
     available  only  as the  underlying  investments  for  variable  annuities,
     variable life  insurance  policies and other  investment  products  through
     separate  investment  accounts of different  insurance  companies  that may
     impose  charges and fees.  A  Portfolio's  investment  results,  when shown
     alone, do not deduct those charges and fees. If those fees and charges were
     included, the Portfolio's performance results would be less.

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


          |_| Yields and total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical
     account  in  the  Portfolio  over  various  periods  and do  not  show  the
     performance  of each  investor's  account  under their  respective  annuity
     contract,  variable life insurance policy or other product.  Your account's
     performance will vary from the model performance data also if you bought or
     sold  shares  during the  period,  or you bought your shares at a different
     time and price than the shares used in the model.

          |_| An  investment  in a  Portfolio  is not insured by the FDIC or any
     other government agency.

          |_| The principal value of a Portfolio's shares, and its yields and/or
     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.  |X| Yields.  The
     Government  Securities  Portfolio  uses a variety  of  different  yields to
     illustrate its current returns.

          |_| Standardized  Yield. The "standardized  yield" (sometimes referred
     to just as "yield") is shown for a stated 30-day period. It is not based on
     actual  distributions  paid by the Portfolio in the 30-day period, but is a
     hypothetical   yield  based  upon  the  net  investment   income  from  the
     Portfolio's  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  Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  designed to
     assure uniformity in the way that all funds calculate their yields:

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

         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 outstanding during the 30-day period that
were entitled to receive dividends.

d = the maximum offering price per share 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.

          |_| Dividend Yield.  The Government  Securities  Portfolio may quote a
     "dividend  yield" for its shares.  Dividend yield is based on the dividends
     paid during the actual dividend  period.  To calculate  dividend yield, the
     dividends  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 = Distribution Paid / No. of Days in the Period x No. of Days in the Calendar Year
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                      Maximum Offering Price (payment date)

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

          |X| Total  Return  Information.  There are  different  types of "total
     returns" to measure a Portfolio's  performance.  Total return is the change
     in value of a hypothetical investment in the Portfolio 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.  The cumulative  total return measures the change in value over the
     entire  period (for  example,  ten years).  An average  annual total return
     shows the  average  rate of return  for each  year in a period  that  would
     produce  the  cumulative  total  return  over the entire  period.  However,
     average annual total returns do not show actual year-by-year performance. A
     Portfolio  uses   standardized   calculations  for  its  total  returns  as
     prescribed by the SEC. The methodology is discussed below.

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

          |_| Average Annual Total Return.  The "average annual total return" 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:

          |_| 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

Other Performance Comparisons.  Each Portfolio 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.  A Portfolio 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 a  Portfolio  may publish the
     ranking of the performance of its 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
     Portfolios,  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 a Portfolio may publish the
     star  rating of the  performance  of its shares by  Morningstar,  Inc.,  an
     independent mutual fund monitoring service.  Morningstar rates mutual funds
     in their specialized market sector. Morningstar rates mutual funds in their
     specialized market sector

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

          A Portfolio may also compare its total return ranking to that of other
     funds in its Morningstar category,  in addition to its star ratings.  Those
     total  return  rankings  are  percentages  from one  percent to one hundred
     percent and are not  risk-adjusted.  For example,  if a fund is in the 94th
     percentile, that means that 94% of the funds in the same category performed
     better than it did.

     Publications.   From  time  to  time  a   Portfolio   may  include  in  its
     advertisements  and  sales  literature  performance  information  about the
     Portfolio  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 Portfolio's 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 a Portfolio's shares
     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, a Portfolio'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, a portfolio 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.

How To Buy and Sell Shares

          Insurance  companies  that  hold  shares  of the  Portfolios  in their
     separate accounts for the benefit of their customers'  variable  annuities,
     variable  life  insurance  policies and other  investment  products are the
     record  holders  and the  owners of shares of  beneficial  interest  in the
     Portfolios. The right of those customers of the insurance companies to give
     directions  to the  insurance  company for the  purchase or  redemption  of
     shares is  determined  under the  contract  between  the  customer  and the
     insurance   company.   Those  customers  are  not   "shareholders"  of  the
     Portfolios.  The rights of those insurance  companies as record holders and
     owners of shares of a  Portfolio  are  different  from the  rights of their
     customers.   The  term   "shareholder"  in  this  Statement  of  Additional
     Information refers only to the insurance  companies whose separate accounts
     hold shares of the Portfolios, and not to contract holders.

          The sale of shares of the Portfolios is currently  limited to Accounts
     as explained on the cover page of this Statement of Additional  Information
     and the  Prospectus.  Such  shares  are sold at their  respective  offering
     prices (net asset  values  without  sales  charges)  and  redeemed at their
     respective  net asset values as described  in the  Prospectus.  The Company
     reserves the right to limit the types of separate  accounts that may invest
     in any Portfolio.

Determination  of Net Asset  Values Per Share.  The net asset value per share of
each  Portfolio is  determined as of the close of business of The New York Stock
Exchange (the  "Exchange") on each day the Exchange is open. The  calculation is
done by dividing the value of a  Portfolio's  net assets by the number of shares
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 or after a  holiday).  All  references  to time in this
Statement of Additional  Information  mean "Eastern  time".  The Exchange's most
recent  annual  announcement  (which is subject to change)  states  that it will
close New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday,
Memorial Day,  Independence Day, Labor Day,  Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
It may also close on other days.

          Dealers  other than  Exchange  members may conduct  trading in certain
     securities on days on which the Exchange is closed (including  weekends and
     holidays)  or after 4:00  P.M.,  on a regular  business  day.  Because  the
     Portfolio's  net asset  values will not be  calculated  on those days,  the
     Portfolio's  net asset  values per share may be  significantly  affected on
     such  days  when   shareholders   may  not   purchase  or  redeem   shares.
     Additionally,   trading  on  European   and  Asian  stock   exchanges   and
     over-the-counter  markets  normally  is  completed  before the close of the
     Exchange.

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

          |X|  Securities  Valuation.  The Board of  Directors  has  established
     procedures  for the valuation of each  Portfolio's  securities.  In general
     those procedures are as follows:

          |_|  Equity  securities  traded on a U.S.  securities  exchange  or on
     Nasdaq are valued as follows:

(1) if last sale information is regularly reported,  they are valued at the last
reported  sale price on the  principal  exchange  on which they are traded or on
Nasdaq, as applicable, on that day, or

(2) if last sale  information  is not  available on a valuation  date,  they are
valued at the last  reported sale price  preceding  the valuation  date if it is
within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked"  prices on the valuation date
or, if not, at the closing "bid" price on the valuation date.

|_| Equity  securities  traded on a foreign  securities  exchange  generally are
valued in one of the following ways:

(1) at the last sale price  available  to the  pricing  service  approved by the
Board of Directors, or

(2) at the last  sale  price  obtained  by the  Manager  from the  report of the
principal  exchange on which the security is traded at its last trading  session
on or immediately before the valuation date, or

(3) at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices obtained from the principal
exchange on which the security is traded or, on the basis of reasonable inquiry,
from two market makers in the security.

          |_| 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  Board  of
     Directors or obtained by the Manager from two active  market  makers in the
     security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.

          |_| The following  securities are valued at the mean between the "bid"
     and "asked" prices determined by a pricing service approved by the Board of
     Directors 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.

          |_|  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.

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

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

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

          Puts,  calls,  and  futures  are  valued at the last sale price on the
     principal exchange on which they are traded or on Nasdaq, as applicable, as
     determined  by a pricing  service  approved by the Board of Directors 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 a  Portfolio  writes an option,  an amount  equal to the  premium
     received is included in the Portfolio'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 Portfolio's  gain on investments,  if a
     call or put  written  by the  Portfolio  is  exercised,  the  proceeds  are
     increased  by the  premium  received.  If a  call  or  put  written  by the
     Portfolio  expires,  the Portfolio has a gain in the amount of the premium.
     If the Portfolio 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 Portfolio exercises a put
     it holds,  the amount the Portfolio  receives on its sale of the underlying
     investment is reduced by the amount of premium paid by the Portfolio.

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

     Dividends and  Distributions.  The  Portfolios  have no fixed  dividend and
     there  can be no  assurance  as to the  payment  of  any  dividends  or the
     realization of any capital gains. The dividends and distributions paid by a
     Portfolio will vary from time to time depending on market  conditions,  the
     composition of the Portfolio's investment portfolio,  and expenses borne by
     the  Portfolio  or borne  separately  by a class (if more than one class of
     shares are  outstanding).  Dividends are calculated in the same manner,  at
     the same time,  and on the same day for each class of shares.  Dividends on
     Service  shares are expected to be lower.  That is because of the effect of
     the additional fee on Service  shares.  Those dividends will also differ in
     amount as a  consequence  of any  difference in the net asset values of the
     different classes of shares.

     Tax Status of the  Portfolios'  Dividends  and  Distributions.  The Company
     intends that each  Portfolio  shall  qualify and be treated as a "regulated
     investment  company"  under  Subchapter M of the Internal  Revenue Code for
     each taxable year. By so qualifying,  the Portfolios will not be subject to
     federal   income  taxes  on  amounts   paid  by  them  as   dividends   and
     distributions,  as described in the respective Prospectuses. Each Portfolio
     is treated as a separate  entity for  purposes of  determining  federal tax
     treatment. The Company will endeavor to ensure that each Portfolio's assets
     are invested so that all  requirements  of Subchapter M are satisfied,  but
     there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so.

          To qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the
     Code,  a Portfolio  must,  among other  things,  derive at least 90% of its
     gross income for the taxable year from dividends,  interest, gains from the
     sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies,  fees
     from  certain  securities  loans  or other  income  (including  gains  from
     options,  futures  and  forward  contracts)  derived  with  respect  to its
     business of  investing in such stock,  securities  or  currencies  (this is
     referred to as the "90% income  test").  The  Portfolio  must also  satisfy
     certain annual distribution and quarterly diversification requirements. For
     purposes of the 90% income test,  income that a Portfolio earns from equity
     interests in certain  entities that are not treated as corporations  (e.g.,
     they are treated as  partnerships  or trusts) for U.S.  tax  purposes  will
     generally have the same character for the Portfolio as in the hands of such
     entities.  Consequently,  the Portfolio may be required to limit its equity
     investments in such entities that earn fee income,  rental income, or other
     nonqualifying income.

          As noted in the  Prospectuses,  each  Portfolio  must, and intends to,
     comply with the diversification  requirements  imposed by Section 817(h) of
     the Code and the regulations under that section. Those requirements,  which
     are in addition to the diversification  requirements imposed on a Portfolio
     by the Investment  Company Act and Subchapter M of the Code,  place certain
     limitations on the assets of each separate account.  Additionally,  because
     Section  817(h) and those  regulations  treat the assets of a Portfolio  as
     assets of the  related  separate  account,  there are  restrictions  on the
     amount of its  assets a  Portfolio  may  invest in  securities  of a single
     issuer. Specifically,  the regulations provide that, except as permitted by
     the "safe harbor"  described  below, as of the end of each calendar quarter
     or within 30 days after a calendar  quarter,  no more than 55% of the total
     assets of a Portfolio may be  represented  by any one  investment,  no more
     than 70% by any two investments,  no more than 80% by any three investments
     and no more  than  90% by any  four  investments.  For  this  purpose,  all
     securities of the same issuer are considered a single investment,  and each
     U.S. Government agency and instrumentality is considered a separate issuer.

          Section 817(h)  provides,  as a safe harbor,  that a separate  account
     will be  treated as being  adequately  diversified  if the  diversification
     requirements  under  Subchapter M are satisfied and no more than 55% of the
     value of the  account's  total  assets are cash and cash  items  (including
     receivables),  U.S. Government securities and securities of other regulated
     investment companies. Failure by a Portfolio to both qualify as a regulated
     investment  company  and  satisfy the  Section  817(h)  requirements  would
     generally  result in treatment of the variable  contract holders other than
     as described in the  applicable  variable  contract  prospectus,  including
     inclusion in ordinary  income of income accrued under the contracts for the
     current and all prior  taxable  years.  Any such failure may also result in
     adverse  tax  consequences  for the  Portfolio  and the  insurance  company
     issuing the contracts.

          Foreign   exchange  gains  and  losses  realized  by  a  Portfolio  in
     connection with certain transactions involving foreign currency denominated
     debt securities,  certain options and futures contracts relating to foreign
     currency,  forward  foreign  currency  contracts,  foreign  currencies,  or
     payables or receivables  denominated  in a foreign  currency are subject to
     Section 988 of the Code, which generally causes such gains and losses to be
     treated as ordinary income and losses and may affect the amount, timing and
     character of  distributions  to  shareholders.  If the net foreign exchange
     loss for a year were to exceed the Portfolio's  investment  company taxable
     income  (computed  without  regard  to such  loss)  the  resulting  overall
     ordinary loss for such year would not be deductible by the Portfolio or its
     shareholders in future years.

          Limitations imposed by the Code on regulated investment companies like
     the Portfolios may restrict the Portfolios'  ability to enter into futures,
     options and currency forward transactions.

          The Portfolios  may be subject to withholding  and other taxes imposed
     by  foreign   countries  with  respect  to  their  investments  in  foreign
     securities.  Tax  conventions  between  certain  countries and the U.S. may
     reduce or eliminate such taxes.

          The federal income tax rules  applicable to mortgage  dollar rolls and
     interest  rate  swaps,  caps,  floors and  collars  are  unclear in certain
     respects,  and  the  Portfolios  may  be  required  to  account  for  these
     instruments under tax rules in a manner that, under certain  circumstances,
     may limit their transactions in these instruments.

          If a Portfolio  acquires stock in certain non-U.S.  corporations  that
     receive at least 75% of their  annual  gross  income from  passive  sources
     (such as interest,  dividends, rents, royalties or capital gain) or hold at
     least 50% of their assets in  investments  producing  such  passive  income
     ("passive foreign investment companies"), the Portfolio could be subject to
     Federal   income   tax  and   additional   interest   charges   on  "excess
     distributions"  received from such companies or gain from the sale of stock
     in such  companies,  even if all income or gain  actually  received  by the
     Portfolio is timely  distributed to its  shareholders.  The Portfolio would
     not be able to pass through to its shareholders any credit or deduction for
     such a tax. Certain  elections may, if available,  ameliorate these adverse
     tax  consequences,  but any such  election  would  require the Portfolio to
     recognize  taxable income or gain without the  concurrent  receipt of cash.
     Each  Portfolio  may limit  and/or  manage  its stock  holdings  in passive
     foreign investment  companies to minimize its tax liability or maximize its
     return from these investments.

Additional Information About the Portfolios

     The Transfer  Agent.  OppenheimerFunds  Services,  the  Company's  Transfer
     Agent, is a division of the Manager.  It is responsible for maintaining the
     Company'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.


     Investors under variable annuity contacts, variable life insurance policies
     and other investment products offered by the insurance companies that offer
     shares of the  Portfolios as investments  for those products  should direct
     questions  about their accounts to the servicing  agent for their insurance
     company,  because  OppenheimerFunds  Services does not maintain the records
     for those annuities, policies or other products.


     The  Custodian  Bank.   JPMorgan  Chase  Bank  is  the  Custodian  for  the
     Portfolios' assets. The Custodian's  responsibilities  include safeguarding
     and controlling the Portfolios' portfolio securities,  collecting income on
     the portfolio  securities  and handling the delivery of such  securities to
     and from the Portfolios.  It is the practice of the Portfolios to deal with
     the  Custodian in a manner  uninfluenced  by any banking  relationship  the
     Custodian  may have with the Manager and its  affiliates.  The  Portfolios'
     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  Auditors.  The  independent  auditors  of the  Portfolios  are
     Deloitte & Touche LLP. They audit the Portfolios'  financial statements
     and perform other related audit services. They also act as auditors for the
     Manager  and  for  certain  other  funds  advised  by the  Manager  and its
     affiliates.


INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Government Securities Portfolio:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Government Securities Portfolio (which is a series of Panorama Series Fund,
Inc.), including the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2002, and the
related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and
the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of
the Portfolio's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
   We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2002, by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received
from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
   In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Government Securities Portfolio as of December 31, 2002, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each
of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Government Securities Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a series of Panorama Series
Fund, Inc. (the Company) which is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Portfolio's
investment objective is to seek a high level of current income with a high
degree of safety of principal, by investing primarily (at least 80% of its net
assets, plus borrowings, under normal market conditions) in U.S. government
securities and U.S. government-related securities. The Portfolio's investment
advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). Shares of the Portfolio are
sold only to separate accounts of life insurance companies, a majority of such
shares are held by separate accounts of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co.,
an affiliate of the investment advisor.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Portfolio.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. 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 Portfolio's
assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last
sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing
bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities
(including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available
are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing
service authorized by the Board of Directors, or at their fair value. Fair value
is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
supervision of the Board of Directors. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis. Delivery and payment for securities
that have been purchased by the Portfolio on a when-issued basis can take place
a month or more after the trade date. Normally the settlement date occurs within
six months after the trade date; however, the Portfolio may, from time to time,
purchase securities whose settlement date extends six months or more beyond
trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are
subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to
their delivery. The Portfolio maintains segregated assets with a market value
equal to or greater than the amount of its commitments. These transactions of
securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of the Portfolio's
net asset value to the extent the Portfolio executes such transactions while
remaining substantially fully invested. As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio
had entered into when-issued purchase commitments of $3,233,063.
     In connection with its ability to purchase securities on a when-issued
basis, the Fund may enter into forward roll transactions with respect to
mortgage-related securities. Forward roll transactions require the sale of
securities for delivery in the current month, and a simultaneous agreement with
the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity) but
not identical securities on a specified future date. The forward roll may not
extend for a period of greater than one year. The Fund generally records the
incremental difference between the forward purchase and sell of each forward
roll as interest income.
     Risks to the Fund of entering into forward roll transactions include the
potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the
potential of the Fund to receive inferior securities to what was sold to the
counterparty at redelivery; counterparty credit risk; and the potential pay down
speed variance between the mortgage-related pools.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio, along with other affiliated funds of
the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
repurchase agreement 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 agreement 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  CONTINUED

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Federal Taxes. The Portfolio intends to continue to comply with provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders.

As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio had available for federal income tax
purposes unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:

             Expiring
             ------------------------------
             2003                  $ 29,989
             2005                   103,711
             2006                    62,129
             2007                   335,952
                                   --------
             Total                 $531,781
                                   ========

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, the Portfolio utilized $278,340
of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in the current
fiscal year.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because paydown gains and losses are treated as
ordinary income (loss) for 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 Portfolio.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2002
and December 31, 2001 was as follows:

                                           Year Ended               Year Ended
                                    December 31, 2002        December 31, 2001
        ----------------------------------------------------------------------
        Distributions paid from:
        Ordinary income                      $963,733               $1,112,769
        Long-term capital gain                     --                       --
        Return of capital                          --                       --
                                            ----------------------------------
        Total                                $963,733               $1,112,769
                                            ==================================

As of December 31, 2002, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis
were as follows:

                Undistributed net investment income    $   869,729
                Accumulated net realized loss             (614,428)
                Net unrealized appreciation              1,905,531
                                                       -----------
                Total                                  $ 2,160,832
                                                       ===========
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and
amortization of premium, is accrued as earned.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts


                      12 | GOVERNMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO




of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Shares of Capital Stock
The Portfolio has authorized 160 million shares of $0.001 par value capital
stock. Transactions in shares of capital stock were as follows:

                                                   Year Ended December 31, 2002       Year Ended December 31, 2001

Dividends and/or distributions reinvested             917,840           963,733        1,039,970         1,112,769

                                                  -------------------------------------------------------------------
Net increase (decrease)                             1,773,706      $  1,935,708           (3,397)      $   (13,063)
                                                  ===================================================================

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 December 31, 2002, were
$4,962,651 and $4,734,831, respectively.

As of December 31, 2002, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on cost
of securities for federal income tax purposes of $23,193,035 was composed of:

            Gross unrealized appreciation             $  1,929,929
            Gross unrealized depreciation                 (107,045)
                                                      ------------
            Net unrealized appreciation               $  1,822,884
                                                      ============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts,
investments in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign
currency exchange contracts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 Portfolio. The annual fees are
0.525% of the first $300 million of average daily net assets of the Portfolio,
0.50% of the next $100 million, and 0.45% of average daily net assets over $400
million.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Fees. The Manager acts as the accounting agent for the Portfolio at
an annual fee of $15,000, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably
incurred.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the
Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the
Portfolio. The Portfolio pays OFS a $22.50 per account fee.
   Additionally, funds offered in variable annuity separate accounts are
subject to minimum fees of $5,000 for assets of less than $10 million and
$10,000 for assets of $10 million or more. The Portfolio is subject to the
minimum fee in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the
applicable minimum fee.
   OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets of the Portfolio. This
undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a particular price on a stipulated future
date at a negotiated price. Futures contracts are traded on a commodity

                      13 | GOVERNMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  CONTINUED


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Futures Contracts Continued
exchange. The Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts that relate to
broadly based securities indices "financial futures" or debt securities
"interest rate futures" in order to gain exposure to or to seek to protect
against changes in market value of stock and bonds or interest rates. The
Portfolio may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts.
   The Portfolio generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases
in interest rates and decreases in market value of portfolio securities. The
Portfolio may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to market
changes as it may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying
fixed income securities.
   Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit
either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received by the Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are
equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized
gains and losses. The Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the
contract is closed or expires.
   Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin
requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of
Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable
and/or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin. Realized
gains and losses are reported on the Statement of Operations as closing and
expiration of futures contracts.
   Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying securities.

As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio had outstanding futures contracts as
follows:

                                                                                                 Unrealized

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Growth Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Growth
Portfolio (which is a series of Panorama Series Fund, Inc.), including the
statement of investments, as of December 31, 2002, and the related statement of
operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for
each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolio's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.
   We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of December 31, 2002, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
   In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Growth
Portfolio as of December 31, 2002, the results of its operations for the year
then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in
the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a series of Panorama Series Fund, Inc. (the
Company) which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Portfolio's
investment objective is to seek a high total return. The Portfolio's investment
advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). Shares of the Portfolio are
sold only to separate accounts of life insurance companies, a majority of such
shares are held by separate accounts of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co.,
an affiliate of the investment advisor.
   The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Portfolio.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. 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 Portfolio's
assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last
sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing
bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities
(including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available
are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing
service authorized by the Board of Directors, or at their fair value. Fair value
is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
supervision of the Board of Directors. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Portfolio are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange.
Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment
income are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective
dates of such transactions.
    The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Portfolio's Statement of Operations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio, along with other affiliated funds of
the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
repurchase agreement 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 agreement 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Portfolio intends to continue to comply with provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders.

As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio had available for federal income tax
purposes unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:

                              Expiring
                              -------------------------
                              2008          $32,898,936
                              2009           38,285,188
                              2010           28,419,014
                                            -----------
                              Total         $99,603,138
                                            ===========

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, the Portfolio did not utilize
any capital loss carryforward.
   As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio had approximately $921,000 of
post-October losses available to offset future capital gains, if any. Such
losses, if unutilized, will expire in 2011. Additionally, the Portfolio had
approximately $9,000 of post-October foreign currency losses which were
deferred. If unutilized by the Portfolio in the following fiscal year, such
losses will expire.




                             16 | GROWTH PORTFOLIO


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. 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 Portfolio.
   The Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
year ended December 31, 2002, amounts have been reclassified to reflect a
decrease in undistributed net investment income of $4,944. Accumulated net
realized loss on investments was decreased by the same amount. Net assets of the
Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2002
and December 31, 2001 was as follows:

                                              Year Ended            Year Ended

Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and amortization
of premium, is accrued as earned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

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 December 31, 2002, were
$176,096,821 and $205,943,799, respectively.

As of December 31, 2002, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on cost of
securities for federal income tax purposes of $191,592,209 was composed of:

          Gross unrealized appreciation      $  3,412,356
          Gross unrealized depreciation       (30,507,042)
                                             ------------
          Net unrealized depreciation        $(27,094,686)
                                             ============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts, investments
in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign currency exchange
contracts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 Portfolio which provides for a fee of
0.625% of the first $300 million of average daily net assets of the Portfolio,
0.50% of the next $100 million, and 0.45% of average daily net assets over $400
million.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Fees. The Manager acts as the accounting agent for the Portfolio at
an annual fee of $15,000, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably
incurred.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Portfolio. The
Portfolio pays OFS a $19.75 per account fee.
   Additionally, funds offered in variable annuity separate accounts are subject
to minimum fees of $5,000 for assets of less than $10 million and $10,000 for
assets of $10 million or more. The Portfolio is subject to the minimum fee in
the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the applicable
minimum fee.
   OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets of the Portfolio. This
undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Foreign Currency Contracts
A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Portfolio may enter into
foreign currency contracts for operational purposes and to seek to protect
against adverse exchange rate fluctuations. Risks to the Portfolio include the
potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.


                             18 | GROWTH PORTFOLIO




   The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Portfolio and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using foreign currency exchange rates as provided by
a reliable bank, dealer or pricing service. Unrealized appreciation and
depreciation on foreign currency contracts are reported in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of
Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
   The Portfolio may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of
the foreign currency transactions. Such realized gains and losses are reported
with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a particular price on a stipulated future
date at a negotiated price. Futures contracts are traded on a commodity
exchange. The Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts that relate to
broadly based securities indices "financial futures" or debt securities
"interest rate futures" in order to gain exposure to or to seek to protect
against changes in market value of stock and bonds or interest rates. The
Portfolio may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts.
   The Portfolio generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases in
interest rates and decreases in market value of portfolio securities. The
Portfolio may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to market changes
as it may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying fixed income
securities.
   Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit
either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received by the Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are
equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized
gains and losses. The Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the
contract is closed or expires.
   Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin
requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of
Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable
and/or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin. Realized gains
and losses are reported on the Statement of Operations as closing and expiration
of futures contracts.
   Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying securities.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Illiquid Securities
As of December 31, 2002, 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 intends to invest no more than 15% 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 December
31, 2002 was $250, which represents less than 0.01% of the Fund's net assets.






INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Oppenheimer International Growth
Fund/VA:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer International Growth Fund/VA (which is a series of Panorama Series
Fund, Inc.), including the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2002,
and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements
of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended,
and the financial highlights for the periods indicated. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
   We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2002, by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received
from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
   In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer International Growth Fund/VA as of December 31, 2002, the results
of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer International Growth Fund/VA (the Fund) is a series of Panorama
Series Fund, Inc. (the Company), which 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 long-term growth of capital by
investing under normal circumstances, at least 90% of its assets in equity
securities of companies wherever located, the primary stock market of which is
outside the United States. The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds,
Inc. (the Manager). Shares of the Fund are sold only to separate accounts of
life insurance companies, a majority of such shares are held by separate
accounts of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co., an affiliate of the
investment advisor.
   The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their
offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment
accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for
variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other
investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is
subject to a distribution and service plan. All classes of shares have
identical rights and voting privileges. Earnings, net assets and net asset
value per share may differ by minor amounts due to each class having its own
expenses directly attributable to that class.
   The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. 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. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last
sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing
bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities
(including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily
available are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio
pricing service authorized by the Board of Directors, or at their fair value.
Fair value is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures
under the supervision of the Board of Directors. Short-term "money market type"
debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts related
to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment income are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions.
   The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains
and losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joint Repurchase Agreements. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds of the
Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
repurchase agreement 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 agreement 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily
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.



                 14 | OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND/VA


Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders.

As of December 31, 2002, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes
unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:

                              Expiring
                              -------------------------
                              2009          $16,530,049
                              2010           12,564,594
                                            -----------
                              Total         $29,094,643
                                            ===========

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, the Fund did not utilize any
capital loss carryforward.
   As of December 31, 2002, the Fund had approximately $5,845,000 of
post-October losses available to offset future capital gains, if any. Such
losses, if unutilized, will expire in 2011. Additionally, the Fund had
approximately $164,000 of post-October foreign currency losses which were
deferred. If unutilized by the Fund in the following fiscal year, such losses
will expire.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of the recognition of certain foreign
currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss) for 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 Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
year ended December 31, 2002, amounts have been reclassified to reflect an
increase in undistributed net investment income of $18,261. Accumulated net
realized loss on investments was increased by the same amount. Net assets of
the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31,
2002 and December 31, 2001 was as follows:
                                                       Year Ended               Year Ended

                                                         =================================


As of December 31, 2002, the components of distributable earnings on a tax
basis were as follows:

                 Undistributed net investment income $    964,065
                 Accumulated net realized loss        (35,380,211)

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


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and
amortization of premium, is accrued as earned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 December 31, 2002, were
$32,350,809 and $45,214,755, respectively.

As of December 31, 2002, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on cost
of securities for federal income tax purposes of $91,425,362 was composed of:

                    Gross unrealized appreciation             $  3,339,845
                    Gross unrealized depreciation              (31,068,993)
                                                              ------------
                    Net unrealized depreciation               $(27,729,148)
                                                              ============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts,
investments in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign
currency exchange contracts.



                 16 | OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND/VA


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. The annual fees are 1.00% of
the first $250 million of average daily net assets of the Fund and 0.90% of
average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 $19.75 per account fee.
   Additionally, funds offered in variable annuity separate accounts are
subject to minimum fees of $5,000 for assets of less than $10 million and
$10,000 for assets of $10 million or more. The Fund is subject to the minimum
fee in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the
applicable minimum fee.
   OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets of the Fund. This
undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a
Distribution and Service Plan for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., the Distributor, for distribution-related services for the
Fund's Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made quarterly at an annual
rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of the Service shares of
the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2002, payments under the Service Plan
totaled $1,331.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Foreign Currency Contracts
A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into
foreign currency contracts for operational purposes and to seek to protect
against adverse exchange rate fluctuations. Risks to the Fund include the
potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.
   The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using foreign currency exchange rates as provided
by a reliable bank, dealer or pricing service. Unrealized appreciation and
depreciation on foreign currency contracts are reported in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of
Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation.
   The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the
foreign currency transactions. Such realized gains and losses are reported with
all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of Operations.

As of December 31, 2002, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as
follows:

                                     Expiration             Contract    Valuation as of     Unrealized           Unrealized

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Total Return Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Total
Return Portfolio (which is a series of Panorama Series Fund, Inc.), including
the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2002, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in
net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Portfolio's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
   We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2002, by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received
from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
   In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Total Return Portfolio as of December 31, 2002, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two
years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

Footnotes to Statement of Investments
1. Non-income producing security.
2. Identifies issues considered to be illiquid--See Note 6 of Notes to Financial
Statements.
3. Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate
security.
4. When-issued security to be delivered and settled after December 31, 2002.
5. Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest
payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically
decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities
increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the
underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is
calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to changes
in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example,
GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based
upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash
flows. These securities amount to $144,790 or 0.05% of the Portfolio's net
assets as of December 31, 2002.
6. Represents securities sold under Rule 144A, which are exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities have
been determined to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of
Directors. These securities amount to $9,048,165 or 2.89% of the Portfolio's net
assets as of December 31, 2002.
7. Securities with an aggregate market value of $3,007,578 are held in
collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures
sales contracts. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Total Return Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a series of Panorama Series Fund,
Inc. (the Company), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Portfolio's
investment objective is to seek to maximize total investment return (including
capital appreciation and income) principally by allocating its assets among
stocks, corporate bonds, U.S. government securities and money market
instruments, according to changing market conditions. The Portfolio's
investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). Shares of the
Portfolio are sold only to separate accounts of life insurance companies, a
majority of such shares are held by separate accounts of Massachusetts Mutual
Life Insurance Co., an affiliate of the investment advisor.
   The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Portfolio.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. 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 Portfolio's
assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last
sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing
bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities
(including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily
available are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a port folio
pricing service authorized by the Board of Directors, or at their fair value.
Fair value is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures
under the supervision of the Board of Directors. Short-term "money market type"
debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Structured Notes. The Portfolio invests in structured notes whose market values
and redemption prices are linked to the market value of specific securities.
The structured notes are leveraged, which increases the Portfolio's exposure to
changes in prices of the underlying securities and increases the volatility of
each note's market value relative to the change in the underlying security
prices. Fluctuations in value of these securities are recorded as unrealized
gains and losses in the accompanying financial statements. The Portfolio
records a realized gain or loss when a structured note is sold or matures. As
of December 31, 2002, the market value of these securities comprised 0.9% of
the Fund's net assets, and resulted in unrealized losses in the current period
of $2,650.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis. Delivery and payment for
securities that have been purchased by the Portfolio on a when-issued basis can
take place a month or more after the trade date. Normally the settlement date
occurs within six months after the trade date; however, the Portfolio may, from
time to time, purchase securities whose settlement date extends six months or
more beyond trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn
interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in
value prior to their delivery. The Portfolio maintains segregated assets with a
market value equal to or greater than the amount of its commitments. These
transactions of securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility
of the Portfolio's net asset value to the extent the Portfolio executes such
transactions while remaining substantially fully invested. As of December 31,
2002, the Portfolio had entered into when-issued purchase commitments of
$36,976,125.
   In connection with its ability to purchase securities on a when-issued
basis, the Portfolio may enter into forward roll transactions with respect to
mortgage-related securities. Forward roll transactions require the sale of
securities for delivery in the current month, and a simultaneous agreement with
the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity)
but not identical securities on a specified future date. The forward roll may
not extend for a period of greater than one year. The Portfolio generally
records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sell of
each forward roll as interest income.
   Risks to the Portfolio of entering into forward roll transactions include
the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement;
the potential of the Portfolio to receive inferior securities to what was sold
to the counterparty at redelivery; counterparty credit risk; and the potential
pay down speed variance between the mortgage-related pools.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Continued


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Portfolio are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange.
Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment
income are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective
dates of such transactions.
   The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and

Joint Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio, along with other affiliated Funds
of the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
repurchase agreement 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 agreement 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Portfolio intends to continue to comply with provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders.

As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio had available for federal income tax
purposes unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:

                                           ============

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, the Portfolio did not utilize
any capital loss carryforward.
   As of December 31, 2002, the Portfolio had approximately $6,721,000 of
post-October losses available to offset future capital gains, if any. Such
losses, if unutilized, will expire in 2011.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of the recognition of certain foreign
currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss) for 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 Portfolio.
   The Portfolio adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
year ended December 31, 2002, amounts have been reclassified to reflect an
increase in undistributed net investment income of $14,480. Accumulated net
realized loss on investments was increased by the same amount. Net assets of
the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and
amortization of premium, is accrued as earned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

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 December 31, 2002, were
$548,261,713 and $576,031,610, respectively.

As of December 31, 2002, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on cost
of securities for federal income tax purposes of $380,445,833 was composed of:

                    Gross unrealized appreciation             $ 11,153,614

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Continued


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Purchases and Sales of Securities Continued
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts,
investments in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign
currency exchange contracts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 Portfolio. The annual fees are
0.625% of the first $600 million of average daily net assets of the Portfolio,
and 0.45% of average daily net assets in excess of $600 million.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Fees. The Manager acts as the accounting agent for the Portfolio at
an annual fee of $15,000, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably
incurred.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Portfolio. The
Portfolio pays OFS a $19.75 per account fee.
   Additionally, Portfolios offered in variable annuity separate accounts are
subject to minimum fees of $5,000 for assets of less than $10 million and
$10,000 for assets of $10 million or more. The Portfolio is subject to the
minimum fee in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the
applicable minimum fee.
   OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets of the Portfolio. This
undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a particular price on a stipulated future
date at a negotiated price. Futures contracts are traded on a commodity
exchange. The Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts that relate to
broadly based securities indices "financial futures" or debt securities
"interest rate futures" in order to gain exposure to or to seek to protect
against changes in market value of stock and bonds or interest rates. The
Portfolio may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts.
   The Portfolio generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases
in interest rates and decreases in market value of portfolio securities. The
Portfolio may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to market
changes as it may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying
fixed income securities.
   Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit
either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received by the Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are
equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized
gains and losses. The Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the
contract is closed or expires.
   Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin
requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of
Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable
and/or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin. Realized
gains and losses are reported on the Statement of Operations as closing and
expiration of futures contracts.
   Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying securities.

6. Illiquid Securities
As of December 31, 2002, 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
Portfolio intends to invest no more than 15% 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
December 31, 2002 was $17,309,072, which represents 5.54% of the Portfolio's
net assets.

                                                          RATINGS DEFINITIONS

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

Moody's Investors Service, Inc.


Long-Term (Taxable) Bond Ratings

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

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

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

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

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

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

     Caa: Bonds rated "Caa" are of poor standing.  Such issues may be in default
     or there may be present  elements of danger with  respect to  principal  or
     interest.

     Ca: Bonds rated "Ca" represent  obligations which are speculative in a high
     degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.

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

     Bonds for which the security depends on the completion of some
     act or the  fulfillment  of some condition are rated  conditionally.  These
     bonds are  secured by (a)  earnings  of projects  under  construction,  (b)
     earnings of projects unseasoned in operating  experience,  (c) rentals that
     begin when  facilities are  completed,  or (d) payments to which some other
     limiting  condition  attaches.  The  parenthetical  rating denotes probable
     credit stature upon  completion of construction or elimination of the basis
     of the condition.

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

     Short-Term Ratings - Taxable Debt

     These  ratings  apply  to the  ability  of  issuers  to honor  senior  debt
     obligations having an original maturity not exceeding one year:

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

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

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

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

Standard & Poor's Rating Services


Long-Term Credit Ratings

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

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

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

     BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

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

     B: Bonds 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:  Bonds 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: Bonds rated "CC" are currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment.

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

     D: Bonds rated "D" are in default. Payments on the obligation are not being
     made on the date due even if the  applicable  grace period has not expired,
     unless  Standard and Poor's believes that such payments will be made during
     such grace  period.  The "D" rating  will also 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.  The "r" symbol is attached to the ratings of instruments  with
     significant noncredit risks.




Short-Term Issue Credit Ratings

     A-1: Obligation is rated in the highest category. The obligor's capacity to
     meet its  financial  commitment on the  obligation  is strong.  Within this
     category,  a plus (+) sign designation  indicates the obligor's capacity to
     meet its financial obligation is extremely strong.

     A-2:  Obligation 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: Obligation 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:   Obligation   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:  Obligation 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:  Obligation is in payment  default.  Payments on the obligation have not
     been  made on the due date  even if the  applicable  grace  period  has not
     expired,  unless  Standard and Poor's  believes  that such payments will be
     made  during such grace  period.  The "D" rating will also be used upon the
     filing of a  bankruptcy  petition  or the  taking  of a  similar  action if
     payments on an obligation are jeopardized.

International Long-Term Credit 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

          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.
