ABOUT THE FUND

The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE? The Fund seeks a high level of total
return on its assets through a combination of current income and capital
appreciation.

WHAT DOES THE FUND MAINLY INVEST IN? As a matter of non-fundamental policy
that shall not be changed without 60 days advance notice to shareholders, the
Fund invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets
(plus borrowings for investment purposes) in convertible securities. Those
convertible securities include domestic and (to a limited extent) foreign
corporate bonds, notes, warrants and preferred stocks that can be exchanged
for (converted into) common stock of the issuer. The Fund can invest without
limit in lower-grade, high-yield convertible debt securities, sometimes
called "junk bonds," and many of the convertible bonds the Fund buys are
below investment grade.

The Fund has no limitations on the range of maturities of the debt
securities in which it can invest and therefore may hold bonds with short-,
medium- or long-term maturities. In addition, the Fund does not limit its
investments to securities of issuers in a particular market capitalization
range and can hold securities of small-cap, medium-cap and large-cap issuers.

While the Fund can also invest up to 20% of its net assets in
non-convertible debt securities and common stocks, not more than 15% of its
net assets can be invested in common stocks that do not pay dividends. These
investments are more fully explained in "About the Fund's Investments," below.

HOW DOES THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER DECIDE WHAT SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL? In
selecting securities for the Fund, the Fund's portfolio manager uses a
disciplined, value-oriented investment approach based on a fundamental
"bottom-up" analysis of the financial condition of individual issuers rather
than overall market or industry conditions or trends. The portfolio manager
currently focuses on the factors below (which may vary in particular cases
and may change over time):

o The portfolio manager analyzes the balance sheet strength of individual
issuers, including current and historic financial condition, trading
activity in their securities, present and anticipated cash flows,
estimated values in relation to historic cost, the issuer's managerial
expertise, debt maturity schedules, current and future borrowing
requirements and any change in its condition that might affect its
ability to meet future obligations.
o The portfolio manager searches for convertible debt securities that
might offer participation in equity-like returns without excessive
price volatility.
o To avoid the volatility of owning stocks directly, the portfolio
manager generally sells stocks after they are obtained by converting
securities the Fund held.
o While the Fund is not required to sell securities to maintain 80% of
its net assets in convertible securities, if its investments in
non-convertible securities, cash and common stock exceed 20% of net
assets it will make new investments only in convertible securities
until the 80% standard is met.

WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED FOR? The Fund is designed primarily for investors
seeking high total return over the long term from a fund that invests for
both current income and capital appreciation in convertible securities. Those
investors should be willing to assume the credit risks of a fund that
typically invests a significant amount of its assets in lower-grade bonds and
the changes in share prices that can occur when interest rates change. The
Fund is intended as a long-term investment, not a short-term trading vehicle,
and may be appropriate as part of an investor's retirement plan portfolio.
However, the Fund is not a complete investment program.

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund

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

CREDIT RISK. Debt securities are subject to credit risk. Credit risk
relates to the ability of the issuer of a security to make interest and
principal payments on the security as they become due. If the issuer fails to
pay interest, the Fund's income might be reduced, and if the issuer fails to
repay principal, the value of that security and of the Fund's shares might be
reduced. Debt securities and preferred stocks issued by domestic and foreign
corporations are subject to risks of default. A downgrade in an issuer's
credit rating or other adverse news about an issuer can reduce the market
value of that issuer's securities.

Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. Because the Fund can invest without
limit in securities rated below investment grade to seek high income,
the Fund's credit risks are greater than those of funds that buy only
investment-grade bonds. Lower-grade debt securities may be subject to
greater market fluctuations and greater risks of loss of income and
principal than investment-grade debt securities. Securities that are
(or that have fallen) below investment grade are exposed to a greater
risk that the issuers of those securities might not meet their debt
obligations. The market for these securities may be less liquid, making
it difficult for the Fund to sell them quickly at an acceptable price.
These risks can reduce the Fund's share prices and the income it earns.

Special Risks of Small-Cap Issuers. While the Fund can buy convertible
securities of companies of small, medium or large market
capitalizations, to the extent the Fund invests in small-capitalization
companies, they may offer greater potential for high total return than
securities of larger issuers. However, Small-cap issuers may have less
of a trading market for their securities and may be subject to greater
risks of default than securities of larger issuers. These factors
increase the potential for losses to the Fund.

INTEREST RATE RISKS. The values of debt securities are subject to change when
prevailing interest rates change. When prevailing interest rates fall, the
values of already-issued debt securities generally rise. When prevailing
interest rates rise, the values of already-issued debt securities generally
fall, and they may sell at a discount from their face amount. The magnitude
of these fluctuations will often be greater for debt securities having longer
maturities than for shorter-term debt securities. The Fund's share prices
can go up or down when interest rates change because of the effect of the
changes on the value of the Fund's investments in debt securities. Also, if
interest rates fall, the Fund's investments in new securities at lower yields
will reduce the Fund's income.

STOCK MARKET RISKS. Because most of the Fund's investments are convertible
into common stock, the prices of the Fund's investments in convertible
securities are sensitive to events that affect the values of the issuer's
common stock. Those can include broad stock market events as well as events
affecting the particular issuer, such as poor earnings reports, loss of major
customers, major litigation, or regulatory changes affecting the issuer or
its industry. The income offered by fixed-income securities can help reduce
the effect of that volatility on the Fund's total return to some degree, but
the prices of the Fund's convertible securities will be affected by those
events.

THERE ARE SPECIAL RISKS IN USING DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS. The Fund can use
derivatives to seek increased income or to try to hedge investment risks. In
general terms, a derivative investment is an investment contract whose value
depends on (or is derived from) the value of an underlying asset, interest
rate or index. Options, structured notes, and equity-linked debt securities
are examples of derivatives the Fund can use.

If the issuer of the derivative does not pay the amount due, the Fund
can lose money on the investment. Also, the underlying security or investment
on which the derivative is based, and the derivative itself, might not
perform the way the Manager expected it to perform. If that happens, the
Fund's share prices could fall or the Fund could get less income than
expected. The Fund has limits on the amount of particular types of
derivatives it can hold and is not required to use them to seek its
objective. Using derivatives can cause the Fund to lose money on its
investments and/or increase the volatility of its share prices.

HOW RISKY IS THE FUND OVERALL? The risks described above collectively form
the overall risk profile of the Fund and can affect the value of the Fund's
investments, its investment performance, and the prices of its shares.
Particular investments and investment strategies also have risks. These risks
mean that you can lose money by investing in the Fund. When you redeem your
shares, they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them. There is
no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The values of debt securities, particularly lower-grade securities, can
be affected by a number of factors, such as interest rate changes and other
market factors, and the prices of the Fund's shares can go up and down. The
income from the Fund's investments may help cushion the Fund's total return
from changes in prices, but debt securities are subject to credit risks that
can also affect their values and income and the share prices of the Fund. In
the OppenheimerFunds spectrum, the Fund generally has more risks than bond
funds that focus primarily on U. S. government securities and
investment-grade bonds but may be less volatile than funds that focus solely
on investments in stocks.

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

The Fund's Past Performance

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

The after-tax returns are shown for Class M shares only and are
calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income
tax rates in effect during the periods shown, and do not reflect the impact
of state or local taxes. In certain cases, the figure representing "Return
After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares" may be higher than the
other return figures for the same period. A higher after-tax return results
when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and translates into an assumed tax
deduction that benefits the shareholder. The after-tax returns are calculated
based on certain assumptions mandated by regulation and your actual after-tax
returns may differ from those shown, depending on your individual tax
situation. The after-tax returns set forth below are not relevant to
investors who hold their fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements such
as 401(k) plans or IRAs or to institutional investors not subject to tax. The
Fund's past investment performance, before and after taxes, is not
necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

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

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

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

For the period from 1/1/05 through 3/31/05, the cumulative return (not
annualized) before taxes for Class M shares was _____%.
During the period shown in the bar chart, the highest return (not annualized)
before taxes for a calendar quarter was _____% (_Qtr__) and the lowest return
(not annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was ______% (_Qtr__).

1 From _______.

Class M shares were first publicly offered 6/3/86 as Class A shares and were
re-designated as Class M shares on 3/11/96. The Fund's class Y shares, which
had been offered since 5/1/95, were re-designated as Class A shares on
3/11/96.

The Fund's average annual total returns include the current maximum initial
sales charges of 5.75% for Class A and 3.25% for Class M; the contingent
deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5 year) for Class B; and the 1%
contingent deferred sales charge for the 1-year period for Class C and the
1-year period for Class N. Because Class B shares automatically convert to
Class A shares 72 months after purchase, Class B "life of class" performance
does not include any contingent deferred sales charge and uses Class A
performance for the period after conversion.

The returns measure the performance of a hypothetical account and assume that
all dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in
additional shares. The performance of the Fund's shares is compared to the
Goldman Sachs Convertible Bond 100 Index, an unmanaged index of convertible
securities and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index
of U.S. corporate and government bonds. The Fund also compares its
performance to that of the S&P 500 Index, an unmanaged index of common
stocks. The indices' performance includes reinvestment of income but does not
reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. The Fund's investments
vary from those in the indices.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

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

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

Expenses may vary in future years. "Other expenses" include transfer agent
fees, custodial fees, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund pays.
The "Other Expenses" in the table are based on, among other things, the fees
the Fund would have paid if the transfer agent had not waived a portion of
its fee under a voluntary undertaking to the Fund to limit these fees to
0.35% of average daily net assets per fiscal year for all classes. That
undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time. After the waiver, the
actual "Other Expenses" and "Total Annual Operating Expenses" as percentages
of average daily net assets were ___% and ___% for Class A shares, ___% and
___% for Class B shares, ___% and ___% for Class C shares and ___% and ___%
for Class N shares, respectively. The Distribution and/or Service (12b-1)
Fees for Class M shares in the table above does not reflect the 0.25% asset
based sales charge which the Board set at zero effective 2/11/04. Actual
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees for Class M shares for fiscal year
12/31/04 were ___%. The transfer agent fees for the other classes of shares
did not exceed the expense limitation described above, therefore Class A,
Class B, Class C and Class M expenses were the same as shown above.

A contingent deferred sales charge may apply to redemptions of investments of
$1 million or more ($500,000 for certain retirement plan accounts) of
Class A shares. See "How to Buy Shares" for details.

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

Applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase.
Applies to shares redeemed within 18 months of a retirement plan's first

purchase of Class N shares.

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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If shares are redeemed: 1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class A Shares $ $ $ $
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Class B Shares $ $ $ $ 1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class C Shares $ $ $ $
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class M Shares $ $ $ $
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class N Shares $ $ $ $
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If shares are not 1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years
redeemed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class M Shares $ $ $ $
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class N Shares $ $ $ $
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the first example, expenses include the initial sales charge for Class A
and Class M and the applicable Class B, Class C or Class N contingent
deferred sales charges. In the second example, the Class A and Class M
expenses include the sales charge, but Class B, Class C and Class N expenses
do not include the contingent deferred sales charges.
1. Class B expenses for years 7 through 10 are based on Class A expenses
since Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after
purchase.

About the Fund's Investments

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

The Manager tries to reduce risks by carefully researching securities
before they are purchased, and in some cases by using hedging techniques. The
Fund attempts to reduce its exposure to market risks by diversifying its
investments, that is, by not holding a substantial amount of securities of
any one company and by not investing too great a percentage of the Fund's
assets in any one company. Also, the Fund does not concentrate 25% or more
of its investments in any one industry.

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

Convertible Securities. Convertible debt securities pay interest and
convertible preferred stocks pay dividends until they mature or are
converted, exchanged or redeemed. Because of the conversion feature,
the price of a convertible security will normally vary in some
proportion to changes in the price of the underlying common stock. In
general, convertible securities:

o have higher yields than common stocks but lower yields than comparable
non-convertible securities,
o may be subject to less fluctuation in value than the underlying stock
because of their income, and
o provide potential for capital appreciation if the market price of the
underlying common stock increases (and in those cases may be thought of
as "equity substitutes").

-----------------------------------
What is a "Convertible" Security? A convertible security is one that can
be converted into or exchanged for a set amount of common stock of an issuer
within a particular period of time at a specified price or according to a
price formula.
-----------------------------------

The Fund does not invest only in securities of issuers in a particular
market capitalization range, and at times the Manager might increase
the relative emphasis of securities of issuers in a particular
capitalization range if the Manager believes they offer greater
opportunities for total return.

Securities of smaller, newer companies may offer greater potential for
higher returns, but they are also subject to greater risks of default
than larger, more established issuers. They may have unseasoned
management, they may lack established markets for their products or
services and may be dependent on only a few customers or suppliers for
a greater amount of their business. Also, they may not have the
financial strength to sustain them through business downturns or
adverse market conditions. These securities may have less of a trading
market than securities of larger issuers, and it might be harder for
the Fund to dispose of its holdings at an acceptable price when it
wants to sell them. As a result, to the extent the Fund invests in
securities of these issuers, they have greater risks. The Fund might
not achieve its expected returns from these securities and its share
price may fluctuate more to the extent that it holds these investments.

In selecting securities for the Fund's portfolio and evaluating their
yield potential and credit risk, the Manager does not rely solely on
ratings by rating organizations but evaluates business and economic
factors affecting an issuer as well. The debt securities the Fund buys
may be rated by nationally-recognized rating organizations such as
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Rating Service, or
they may be unrated securities assigned an equivalent rating by the
Manager. Credit ratings evaluate the expectation of scheduled payments
of interest and principal, not market risks. Rating agencies might not
always change their credit ratings of an issuer in a timely manner to
reflect the events that could affect an issuer's ability to make timely
payments on its obligations.

The Fund can invest in debt securities that are investment grade or
below investment grade in credit quality and at times will invest
substantial amounts of its assets in securities below investment grade
to seek higher income as part of its goal. "Investment-grade" rated
securities are those in the four highest rating categories of national
ratings organizations. The ratings definitions of the principal ratings
organizations are included in Appendix A to the Statement of Additional
Information.

Convertible Preferred Stock. Unlike common stock, preferred stock typically
has a stated dividend rate. When prevailing interest rates rise, the
value of preferred stock having a fixed dividend rate tends to fall.
The right to payment of dividends on preferred stock generally is
subordinate to the rights of the company's debt securities. Preferred
stock dividends may be cumulative (they remain a liability of the
company until paid) or non-cumulative.

Some convertible preferred stock with a mandatory conversion feature
has a set call price to buy the underlying common stock. If the
underlying common stock price is less than the call price, the holder
will pay more for the common stock than its market price. The issuer
might also be able to redeem the stock prior to the mandatory
conversion date, which could diminish the potential for capital
appreciation on the investment.

"Mandatory-Conversion" Securities. These securities may combine features of
both equity and debt securities. Normally they have a mandatory
conversion feature and an adjustable conversion ratio. One type of
mandatory conversion security is the convertible preferred stock
discussed above. Another is the "equity-linked" debt security, having a
principal amount at maturity that depends on the performance of a
specified equity security, such as the issuer's common stock. Their
values can also be affected by interest rate changes and credit risks
of the issuer. They may be structured in a way that limits their
potential for capital appreciation and the entire value of the security
may be at risk of loss depending on the performance of the underlying
equity security. Since the market for these securities is still
relatively new, they may be less liquid than other convertible
securities.

Lower-Grade Securities. Lower-grade convertible securities may offer greater
opportunities for higher returns than higher-grade securities.
Lower-grade securities are those rated below "Baa" by Moody's or lower
than "BBB" by Standard & Poor's or similar ratings by other
nationally-recognized rating organizations. The Fund does not invest in
securities rated below "C" or which are in default. While securities
rated "Baa" by Moody's or "BBB" by S&P are considered "investment
grade," they have some speculative characteristics.

o Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. While investment-grade
securities are subject to risks of non-payment of interest and
principal, in general, higher-yielding lower-grade bonds, whether rated
or unrated, have greater risks than investment-grade securities as
stated in "Main Risks of Investing in the Fund." There may be less of
a market for them and therefore they may be harder to sell at an
acceptable price. These risks mean that the Fund might not achieve the
expected income from lower-grade securities, and that the Fund's net
asset value per share could be affected by declines in value of these
securities.

The Fund also invests in investment-grade debt securities. It is not
required to dispose of debt securities whose ratings fall after the
Fund buys them. However, the portfolio manager will monitor those
holdings of issuers whose credit quality falls to determine whether the
Fund should sell them.

Derivative Investments. In addition to using hedging instruments such as
options, the Fund can use other derivative investments, such as
structured notes and "mandatory-conversion" securities, including
"equity-linked" debt securities, because they offer the potential for
increased income and principal value.

Markets underlying securities and indices may move in a direction not
anticipated by the Manager. Interest rate and stock market changes in
the U.S. and abroad may also influence the performance of derivatives.
As a result of these risks the Fund could realize less principal or
income from the investment than expected. Certain derivative
investments held by the Fund may be illiquid.

o "Structured" Notes. Structured notes are specially-designed derivative
debt investments. Payments of principal or interest on those notes are
linked to the value of an index (such as a currency or securities
index), an individual stock, or a commodity. The terms of the
instrument may be "structured" by the purchaser (the Fund) and the
borrower issuing the note.

The principal and/or interest payments depend on the performance of one
or more other securities or indices. 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. Therefore, the Fund could receive more or less
than it originally invested when the notes mature. It might receive
less interest than the stated coupon payment if the underlying
investment or index does not perform as anticipated. Their values may
be very volatile and they may have a limited trading market, making it
difficult for the Fund to sell its investment at an acceptable price.

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

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

Foreign Securities. The Fund can invest up to 15% of its net assets in
foreign securities. The Fund can buy securities of companies in both
developed markets and emerging markets. The Fund's foreign debt
investments can be denominated in U.S. dollars or in foreign
currencies. The Fund will buy foreign currency only in connection with
the purchase and sale of foreign securities and not for speculation.

o Risks of Foreign Investing. While foreign securities offer special
investment opportunities, there are also special risks that can reduce
the Fund's share prices and returns. The change in value of a foreign
currency against the U.S. dollar will result in a change in the U.S.
dollar value of securities denominated in that foreign currency.
Currency rate changes can also affect the distributions the Fund makes
from the income it receives from foreign securities as foreign currency
values change against the U.S. dollar. Foreign investing can result in
higher transaction and operating costs for the Fund. Foreign issuers
are not subject to the same accounting and disclosure requirements that
U.S. companies are subject to.

The value of foreign investments may be affected by exchange control
regulations, expropriation or nationalization of a company's assets,
foreign taxes, delays in settlement of transactions, changes in
governmental economic or monetary policy in the U.S. or abroad, or
other political and economic factors.

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

Zero-Coupon Securities. Some of the debt securities the Fund can buy are
zero-coupon bonds that pay no interest and are issued at a substantial
discount from their face value. Zero-coupon securities are subject to
greater fluctuations in price from interest rate changes than
interest-bearing securities. The Fund may have to pay out the imputed
income on zero-coupon securities without receiving the actual cash
currently.

Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Investments may be illiquid because they
do not have an active trading market, making it difficult to value them
or dispose of them promptly at an acceptable price. Restricted
securities may have terms that limit their resale to other investors or
may require registration under applicable securities laws before they
may be sold publicly. The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net
assets in illiquid or restricted securities. The Board can increase
that limit to 15%. Certain restricted securities that are eligible for
resale to qualified institutional purchasers may not be subject to that
limit. The Manager monitors holdings of illiquid securities on an
ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any holdings to maintain
adequate liquidity.

Hedging. The Fund can buy and sell put and call options. These are referred
to as "hedging instruments." The Fund is not required to use hedging
instruments to seek its objective. The Fund does not use hedging
instruments for speculative purposes and has limits on its use of them.

The Fund could write covered call options on stocks, purchase put
options on stocks and enter into closing transactions on these options
for a number of purposes. It might do so to try to manage its exposure
to the possibility that the prices of its portfolio securities may fall
or to try to increase its income.

Options trading involves the payment of premiums and has special tax
effects on the Fund. There are also special risks in particular hedging
strategies. For example, if a covered call written by the Fund is
exercised on an investment that has increased in value, the Fund will
be required to sell the investment at the call price and will not be
able to realize any profit if the investment has increased in value
above the call price.

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

Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments. For cash management purposes the
Fund can hold cash equivalents such as commercial paper, repurchase
agreements, U.S. Treasury bills and other short-term U.S. government
securities. In times of adverse or unstable market, economic or
political conditions, the Fund can invest up to 100% of its assets in
temporary investments that are inconsistent with the Fund's principal
investment strategies. These would ordinarily be short-term U.S.
government securities, commercial paper in the top two rating
categories of a national rating organization, bank obligations of
domestic banks having assets of at least $500 million or repurchase
agreements. The Fund can also hold these securities pending the
investment of proceeds from the sale of Fund shares or portfolio
securities or to meet anticipated redemption requests. To the extent
the Fund invests defensively in these securities, it might not achieve
its investment objective.

Portfolio Turnover. The Fund's investment process may cause the Fund to
engage in active and frequent trading. Therefore, the Fund may engage
in short-term trading while trying to achieve its objective. Increased
portfolio turnover creates higher brokerage and transaction costs for
the Fund (and may reduce performance). Additionally, securities trading
can cause the Fund to realize capital gains that are distributed to
shareholders as taxable distributions. The Financial Highlights table
at the end of this Prospectus shows the Fund's portfolio turnover rate
for each of the past five fiscal years.

PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS. The Fund's portfolio holdings are included in
semi-annual and annual reports that are distributed to shareholders of the
Fund within 60 days after the close of the period for which such report is
being made. The Fund also makes disclosures of the portfolio securities
holdings in Statement of Investments under Form N-Q, filed with the SEC no
later than 60 days after the close of the first and third fiscal quarters.
These additional quarterly filings are publicly available at the SEC.
Therefore, portfolio holdings of the Fund are made publicly available no
later than 60 days after the close of the Fund's fiscal quarter.

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

How the Fund Is Managed

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

The Manager has been an investment advisor since 1960. The Manager and
its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates managed more than $___ billion in
assets as of March ___, 2005, including other Oppenheimer funds with more
than 7 million shareholder accounts. The Manager is located at Two World
Financial Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York
10281-1008.

Portfolio Manager. The portfolio manager of the Fund is Edward Everett. Mr.
Everett has been a portfolio manager of the Fund since July 12, 1993
and he is the person principally responsible for the day-to-day
management of the Fund's portfolio. Mr. Everett is a Vice President of
the Manager and of the Fund. Prior to joining the Manager in January
1996, he was a portfolio manager of Fielding Management Company, Inc.,
an investment advisor.

Advisory Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the
Manager an advisory fee at an annual rate that declines on additional
assets as the Fund grows: 0.625% of the first $50 million of average
annual net assets of the Fund, 0.50% of the next $250 million, and
0.4375% of average annual net assets over $300 million. The Fund's
advisory fee for its last fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 was ____%
of average annual net assets for each class of shares.

Pending Litigation. A consolidated amended complaint has been filed as
putative derivative and class actions against the Manager, Distributor and
Transfer Agent, as well as 51 of the Oppenheimer funds (collectively the
"funds") including the Fund, 31 present and former Directors or Trustees and
9 present and former officers of certain of the Funds. This complaint, filed
in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on
January 10, 2005, consolidates into a single action and amends six individual
previously-filed putative derivative and class action complaints. Like those
prior complaints, the complaint alleges that the Manager charged excessive
fees for distribution and other costs, improperly used assets of the funds in
the form of directed brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees to pay brokers to
promote sales of the funds, and failed to properly disclose the use of fund
assets to make those payments in violation of the Investment Company Act and
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Also, like those prior complaints, the
complaint further alleges that by permitting and/or participating in those
actions, the Directors/Trustees and the Officers breached their fiduciary
duties to Fund shareholders under the Investment Company Act and at common
law. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages,
rescission of the funds' investment advisory agreements, an accounting of all
fees paid, and an award of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses.

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

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

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

Buying Shares Through Your Dealer. You can buy shares through any dealer,
broker or financial institution that has a sales agreement with the
Distributor. Your dealer will place your order with the Distributor on
your behalf. A broker or dealer may charge for that service.
Buying Shares Through the Distributor. Complete an OppenheimerFunds new
account application and return it with a check payable to
"OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc." Mail it to P.O. Box 5270, Denver,
Colorado 80217. If you don't list a dealer on the application, the
Distributor will act as your agent in buying the shares. However, we
recommend that you discuss your investment with a financial advisor
before you make a purchase to be sure that the Fund is appropriate for
you.

o Paying by Federal Funds Wire. Shares purchased through the Distributor
may be paid for by Federal Funds wire. The minimum investment is
$2,500. Before sending a wire, call the Distributor's Wire Department
at 1.800.225.5677 to notify the Distributor of the wire and to receive
further instructions.
o Buying Shares Through OppenheimerFunds AccountLink. With AccountLink,
you pay for shares by electronic funds transfers from your bank
account. Shares are purchased for your account by a transfer of money
from your bank account through the Automated Clearing House (ACH)
system. You can provide those instructions automatically, under an
Asset Builder Plan, described below, or by telephone instructions using
OppenheimerFunds PhoneLink, also described below. Please refer to
"AccountLink," below for more details.

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

WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT YOU MUST INVEST? In most cases, you can buy Fund
shares with a minimum initial investment of $1,000 and make additional
investments at any time with as little as $50. There are reduced minimums
available under the following special investment plans:
o If you establish one of the many types of retirement plan accounts that
OppenheimerFunds offers, more fully described below under "Special
Investor Services," you can start your account with as little as $500.
o By using an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic Exchange Plan (details are
in the Statement of Additional Information), or government allotment
plan, you can make subsequent investments (after making the initial
investment of $500) for as little as $50. For any type of account
established under one of these plans prior to November 1, 2002, the
minimum additional investment will remain $25.
o The minimum investment requirement does not apply to reinvesting
dividends from the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds (a list of them
appears in the Statement of Additional Information, or you can ask your
dealer or call the Transfer Agent), or reinvesting distributions from
unit investment trusts that have made arrangements with the Distributor.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, the
Distributor or your financial intermediary must receive your order by
the time the Exchange closes. If your order is received on a day when
the Exchange is closed or after it has closed on a regular business
day, the order will receive the offering price that is determined on
the next regular business day.

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

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

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class A Shares. If you buy Class A shares, you pay an initial sales charge
(on investments up to $1 million for regular accounts or lesser amounts
for certain retirement plans). The amount of that sales charge will
vary depending on the amount you invest. The sales charge rates are
listed in "How Can You Buy Class A Shares?" below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class B Shares. If you buy Class B shares, you pay no sales charge at the
time of purchase, but you will pay an annual asset-based sales charge.
If you sell your shares within 6 years of buying them, you will
normally pay a contingent deferred sales charge. That contingent
deferred sales charge varies depending on how long you own your shares,
as described in "How Can You Buy Class B Shares?" below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class C Shares. If you buy Class C shares, you pay no sales charge at the
time of purchase, but you will pay an annual asset-based sales charge.
If you sell your shares within 12 months of buying them, you will
normally pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%, as described
in "How Can You Buy Class C Shares?" below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class M Shares. If you buy Class M shares, you pay an initial sales charge.
The amount of that sales charge depends on the amount you invest.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class N Shares. If you buy Class N shares (available only through certain
retirement plans), you pay no sales charge at the time of purchase, but
you will pay an annual asset-based sales charge. If you sell your
shares within 18 months of the retirement plan's first purchase of
Class N shares, you may pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%,
as described in "How Can You Buy Class N Shares?" below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

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

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

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

If you invest $1 million or more, in most cases Class A shares will be
the most advantageous choice, no matter how long you intend to hold
your shares. For that reason, the Distributor normally will not accept
purchase orders of $100,000 or more of Class B shares or $1 million or
more of Class C or Class M shares from a single investor. Dealers or
other financial intermediaries purchasing shares for their customers in
omnibus accounts are responsible for compliance with those limits.

o Investing for the Longer Term. If you are investing less than $100,000
for the longer-term, for example for retirement, and do not expect to
need access to your money for seven years or more, Class B shares may
be appropriate.

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

Additionally, the dividends payable to Class B, Class C and Class N
shareholders will be reduced by the additional expenses borne by those
classes that are not borne by Class A or Class M shares, such as the
Class B, Class C and Class N asset-based sales charge described below
and in the Statement of Additional Information.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Other Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers. The Fund and the
Distributor offer other opportunities to purchase shares without
front-end or contingent deferred sales charges under the programs
described below. The Fund reserves the right to amend or discontinue
these programs at any time without prior notice.
o Dividend Reinvestment. Dividends and/or capital gains distributions
received by a shareholder from the Fund may be reinvested in
shares of the Fund or any of the other Oppenheimer funds
without a sales charge, at the net asset value per share in
effect on the payable date. You must notify the Transfer Agent
in writing to elect this option and must have an existing
account in the fund selected for reinvestment.
o Exchanges of Shares. Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of
certain other Oppenheimer funds at net asset value per share
at the time of exchange, without sales charge, and shares of
the Fund can be purchased by exchange of shares of certain
other Oppenheimer funds on the same basis. Please refer to
"How to Exchange Shares" in this Prospectus and in the
Statement of Additional Information for more details,
including a discussion of circumstances in which sales charges
may apply on exchanges.
o Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months of a redemption of certain
Class A and Class B shares, the proceeds may be reinvested in
Class A shares of the Fund without sales charge. This
privilege applies to redemptions of Class A and Class M shares
that were subject to an initial sales charge or Class A or
Class B shares that were subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge when redeemed. The investor must ask the Transfer
Agent for that privilege at the time of reinvestment and must
identify the account from which the redemption was made.
o Other Special Reductions and Waivers. The Fund and the Distributor
offer additional arrangements to reduce or eliminate front-end
sales charges or to waive contingent deferred sales charges
for certain types of transactions and for certain classes of
investors (primarily retirement plans that purchase shares in
special programs through the Distributor). These are described
in greater detail in Appendix C to the Statement of Additional
Information, which may be ordered by calling 1.800.225.5677 or
through the OppenheimerFunds website, at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com (follow the hyperlinks: "Access
------------------------
Accounts and Services" - Forms & Literature" - "Order
Literature" - "Statements of Additional Information"). A
description of these waivers and special sales charge
arrangements is also available for viewing on the
OppenheimerFunds website (follow the hyperlinks: "Research
Funds" - "Fund Documents" - "View a description . . ."). To
receive a waiver or special sales charge rate under these
programs, the purchaser must notify the Distributor (or other
financial intermediary through which shares are being
purchased) at the time of purchase or notify the Transfer
Agent at the time of redeeming shares for those waivers that
apply to contingent deferred sales charges.
o Purchases by Certain Retirement Plans. There is no initial sales charge
on purchases of Class A shares of the Fund by (1) retirement
plans that have $10 million or more in plan assets and that
have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor and
by (2) retirement plans that are part of a retirement plan
product or platform offered by banks, broker-dealers,
financial advisors, insurance companies or record-keepers that
have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor for
this purpose. The Distributor currently pays dealers of record
concessions in an amount equal to 0.25% of the purchase price
of Class A shares by those retirement plans from its own
resources at the time of sale, subject to certain exceptions
described in "Retirement Plans" in the Statement of Additional
Information. No contingent deferred sales charge is charged
upon the redemption of such shares.
Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. There is no initial
sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of any one or
more of the Oppenheimer funds aggregating $1 million or
more, or on purchases of Class A shares by certain
retirement plans that satisfied certain requirements prior
to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement accounts").
However, those Class A shares may be subject to a Class A
contingent deferred sales charge, as described below.
Retirement plans holding shares of Oppenheimer funds in an
omnibus account(s) for the benefit of plan participants in
the name of a fiduciary or financial intermediary (other
than OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single DB Plus plans) are
not permitted to make initial purchases of Class A shares
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.

The Distributor pays dealers of record concessions in an
amount equal to 1.0% of purchases of $1 million or more
other than purchases by grandfathered retirement accounts.
For grandfathered retirement accounts, the concession is
0.75% of the first $2.5 million of purchases plus 0.25% of
purchases in excess of $2.5 million. In either case, the
concession will not be paid on purchases of shares by
exchange or that were previously subject to a front-end
sales charge and dealer concession.

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

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

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

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

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

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

(As % of Amount Subject to Charge)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 - 1 5.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 - 2 4.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 - 3 3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 - 4 3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - 5 2.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 - 6 1.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More than 6 None
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the table, a "year" is a 12-month period. In applying the contingent
deferred sales charge, all purchases are considered to have been made on the
first regular business day of the month in which the purchase was made.

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

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

HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS M SHARES? Class M shares are sold at their offering
price, which is normally net asset value plus an initial sales charge.1 In
other cases, reduced sales charges may be available under the Fund's "Right
of Accumulation" or Letter of Intent, as described under Class A procedures
above. Out of the amount you invest, the Fund receives the net asset value to
invest for your account.

The sales charge varies depending on the amount you purchase. A portion
of the sales charge may be retained by the Distributor or allocated to your
dealer as a concession. The Distributor reserves the right to reallow the
entire concession to dealers. The Distributor does not accept purchases of
Class M shares in amounts of $1 million or more. The current sales charge
rates and concession paid to dealers are as follows:

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

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

HOW CAN YOU BUY CLASS N SHARES? Class N shares are offered for sale to
retirement plans (including IRAs and 403(b) plans) that purchase $500,000 or
more of Class N shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds or to group
retirement plans (which do not include IRAs and 403(b) plans) that have
assets of $500,000 or more or 100 or more eligible participants. See
"Availability of Class N shares" in the Statement of Additional Information
for other circumstances where Class N shares are available for purchase.

Class N shares are sold at net asset value without an initial sales
charge. A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0% will be imposed upon the
redemption of Class N shares, if:
o The group retirement plan is terminated or Class N shares of all
Oppenheimer funds are terminated as an investment option of the plan
and Class N shares are redeemed within 18 months after the plan's first
purchase of Class N shares of any Oppenheimer fund, or
o With respect to an IRA or 403(b) plan, Class N shares are redeemed
within 18 months of the plan's first purchase of Class N shares of any
Oppenheimer fund.

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

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS.

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for
Class A shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its
costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A
shares. Reimbursement is made quarterly at an annual rate of up to
0.25% of the average annual net assets of Class A shares of the Fund.
The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers,
brokers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly for providing
personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
hold Class A shares. With respect to Class A shares subject to a Class
A contingent deferred sales charge purchased by grandfathered
retirement accounts, the Distributor pays the 0.25% service fee to
dealers in advance for the first year after the shares are sold by the
dealer. The Distributor retains the first year's service fee paid by
the Fund. After the shares have been held by grandfathered retirement
accounts for a year, the Distributor pays the service fee to dealers on
a quarterly basis.

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C, Class M and Class N
Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class
B, Class C, Class M and Class N shares to pay the Distributor for its
services and costs in distributing Class B, Class C, Class M and Class
N shares and servicing accounts. Under the plans, the Fund pays the
Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and
Class C shares and 0.25% on Class N shares. While the Class M plan
permits an annual asset-based sales charge payment of 0.50%, the Board
has set that payment at zero effective February 11, 2004. The
Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under the
Class B, Class C, Class M and Class N plans.

The asset-based sales charge and service fees increase Class B and
Class C expenses by 1.0% and increase Class N expenses by 0.50% of the
net assets per year of the respective class. The service fee increases
Class M expenses by 0.25% of net assets per year. Because these fees
are paid out of the Fund's assets on an on-going basis, over time these
fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more
than other types of sales charges.

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

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

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

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

Under certain circumstances, the Distributor will pay the full Class B,
Class C, Class M or Class N asset-based sales charge and the service
fee to the dealer beginning in the first year after purchase of such
shares in lieu of paying the dealer the sales concession and the
advance of the first year's service fee at the time of purchase, if
there is a special agreement between the dealer and the Distributor.
In those circumstances, the sales concession will not be paid to the
dealer.

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

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

transaction features may be unavailable.

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

RETIREMENT PLANS. You may buy shares of the Fund for your retirement plan
account. If you participate in a plan sponsored by your employer, the plan
trustee or administrator must buy the shares for your plan account. The
Distributor also offers a number of different retirement plans that
individuals and employers can use:
Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These include regular IRAs, Roth IRAs,
SIMPLE IRAs and rollover IRAs.
SEP-IRAs. These are Simplified Employee Pension Plan IRAs for small business
owners or self-employed individuals.

401(k) Plans. These are special retirement plans for businesses.
Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans. These plans are designed for businesses and
self-employed individuals.
Please call the Distributor for OppenheimerFunds retirement plan
documents, which include applications and important plan information.

How to Sell Shares

You can sell (redeem) some or all of your shares on any regular business day.
Your shares will be sold at the next net asset value calculated after your
order is received in proper form (which means that it must comply with the
procedures described below) and is accepted by the Transfer Agent. The Fund
lets you sell your shares by writing a letter, by wire, or by telephone. You
can also set up Automatic Withdrawal Plans to redeem shares on a regular
basis. If you have questions about any of these procedures, and especially if
you are redeeming shares in a special situation, such as due to the death of
the owner or from a retirement plan account, please call the Transfer Agent
first, at 1.800.225.5677, for assistance.

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

o You wish to redeem more than $100,000 and receive a check.
o The redemption check is not payable to all shareholders listed on the
account statement.
o The redemption check is not sent to the address of record on your
account statement.
o Shares are being transferred to a Fund account with a different owner
or name.

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

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

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

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

HOW DO YOU SELL SHARES BY MAIL? Write a letter of instruction that includes:
o Your name,
o The Fund's name,
o Your Fund account number (from your account statement),
o The dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed,
o Any special payment instructions,
o Any share certificates for the shares you are selling,
o The signatures of all registered owners exactly as the account is

registered, and
o Any special documents requested by the Transfer Agent to assure proper
authorization of the person asking to sell the shares.

requests by mail: requests to:
OppenheimerFunds Services OppenheimerFunds Services
P.O. Box 5270 10200 E. Girard Avenue, Building D
Denver, Colorado 80217 Denver, Colorado 80231

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

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

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

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

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

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

A contingent deferred sales charge will be based on the lesser of the
net asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption or the
original net asset value. A contingent deferred sales charge is not imposed
on:
o the amount of your account value represented by an increase in net
asset value over the initial purchase price,
o shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains
distributions, or
o shares redeemed in the special circumstances described in Appendix C to
the Statement of Additional Information.
To determine whether a contingent deferred sales charge applies to a
redemption, the Fund redeems shares in the following order:
1. shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
distributions,
2. shares held for the holding period that applies to the class, and
3. shares held the longest during the holding period.

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

How to Exchange Shares

If you want to change all or part of your investment from one Oppenheimer
fund to another, you can exchange your shares for shares of the same class of
another Oppenheimer fund that offers the exchange privilege. Additionally,
you can exchange Class M shares of this Fund for Class A shares of another
fund. You cannot exchange shares of other Oppenheimer funds for Class M
shares of this Fund (except for shares of money market funds acquired by
exchange from Class M shares of this Fund). In some cases, sales charges may
be imposed on exchange transactions. For example, you can exchange Class A
shares of the Fund only for Class A shares of another fund. To exchange
shares, you must meet several conditions:

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

o The prospectus of the selected fund must offer the exchange privilege.
o When you establish an account, you must hold the shares you buy for at
least seven days before you can exchange them. After your account is
open for seven days, you can exchange shares on any regular business
day, subject to the limitations described below.
o You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the selected fund.
o Generally, exchanges may be made only between identically registered
accounts, unless all account owners send written exchange instructions
with a signature guarantee.
o Before exchanging into a fund, you must obtain its prospectus and
should read it.

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

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

In some cases, sales charges may be imposed on exchange transactions. In
general, a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is not imposed on
exchanges of shares that are subject to a CDSC. However, if you exchange
shares that are subject to a CDSC, the CDSC holding period will be carried
over to the acquired shares, and the CDSC may be imposed if those shares are
redeemed before the end of the CDSC holding period.

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

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

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

Telephone and Internet Exchange Requests. Telephone exchange requests may be
made either by calling a service representative or by using PhoneLink
by calling 1.800.225.5677. You may submit internet exchange requests on
the OppenheimerFunds internet website, at www.oppenheimerfunds.com. You

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON FREQUENT PURCHASES, REDEMPTIONS AND EXCHANGES?

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

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

o Timing of Exchanges. Exchanged shares are normally redeemed from one
fund and the proceeds are reinvested in the fund selected for exchange
on the same regular business day on which the Transfer Agent or its
agent (such as a financial intermediary holding the investor's shares
in an "omnibus" or "street name" account) receives an exchange request
that conforms to these policies. The request must be received by the
close of The New York Stock Exchange that day, which is normally 4:00
p.m. Eastern time, but may be earlier on some days. However, the
Transfer Agent may delay the reinvestment of proceeds from an exchange
for up to five business days if it determines, in its discretion, that
an earlier transmittal of the redemption proceeds to the receiving fund
would be detrimental to either the fund from which the exchange is made
or the fund to which the exchange is made.

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

o Exchanges of Client Accounts by Financial Advisers. The Fund and the
Transfer Agent permit dealers and financial intermediaries to submit
exchange requests on behalf of their customers (unless the customer has
revoked that authority). The Distributor and/or the Transfer Agent have
agreements with a number of financial intermediaries that permit them
to submit exchange orders in bulk on behalf of their clients. Those
intermediaries are required to follow the exchange policies stated in
this Prospectus and to comply with additional, more stringent
restrictions. Those additional restrictions include limitations on the
funds available for exchanges, the requirement to give advance notice
of exchanges to the Transfer Agent, and limits on the amount of client
assets that may be invested in a particular fund. A fund or the
Transfer Agent may limit or refuse bulk exchange requests submitted by
such financial intermediaries if, in the Transfer Agent's judgment,
exercised in its discretion, the exchanges would be disruptive to any
of the funds involved in the transaction.

o Redemptions of Shares. These exchange policy limits do not apply to
redemptions of shares. Shareholders are permitted to redeem their
shares on any regular business day, subject to the terms of this
Prospectus.

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

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

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

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

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

Additional Policies and Procedures. The Fund's Board has adopted additional
policies and procedures to detect and prevent frequent and/or excessive
exchanges and purchase and redemption activity. Those additional policies and
procedures will take effect on June 20, 2005:

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

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

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

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

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

Shareholder Account Rules and Policies

More information about the Fund's policies and procedures for buying, selling
and exchanging shares is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.
A $12 annual "Minimum Balance Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a
value of less than $500. The fee is automatically deducted from each
applicable Fund account annually on or about the second to last
"regular business day" of September. See the Statement of Additional
Information to learn how you can avoid this fee and for circumstances
under which this fee will not be assessed.

The offering of shares may be suspended during any period in which the
determination of net asset value is suspended, and the offering may be
suspended by the Board of Trustees at any time the Board believes it is
in the Fund's best interest to do so.
Telephone transaction privileges for purchases, redemptions or exchanges may
be modified, suspended or terminated by the Fund at any time. The Fund
will provide you notice whenever it is required to do so by applicable
law. If an account has more than one owner, the Fund and the Transfer
Agent may rely on the instructions of any one owner. Telephone
privileges apply to each owner of the account and the dealer
representative of record for the account unless the Transfer Agent
receives cancellation instructions from an owner of the account.
The Transfer Agent will record any telephone calls to verify data concerning
transactions and has adopted other procedures to confirm that telephone
instructions are genuine, by requiring callers to provide tax
identification numbers and other account data or by using PINs, and by
confirming such transactions in writing. The Transfer Agent and the
Fund will not be liable for losses or expenses arising out of telephone
instructions reasonably believed to be genuine.
Redemption or transfer requests will not be honored until the Transfer Agent
receives all required documents in proper form. From time to time, the
Transfer Agent in its discretion may waive certain of the requirements
for redemptions stated in this Prospectus.
Dealers that perform account transactions for their clients by participating
in NETWORKING through the National Securities Clearing Corporation are
responsible for obtaining their clients' permission to perform those
transactions, and are responsible to their clients who are shareholders
of the Fund if the dealer performs any transaction erroneously or
improperly.
The redemption price for shares will vary from day to day because the value
of the securities in the Fund's portfolio fluctuates. The redemption
price, which is the net asset value per share, will normally differ for
each class of shares. The redemption value of your shares may be more
or less than their original cost.
Payment for redeemed shares ordinarily is made in cash. It is forwarded by
check, or through AccountLink or by Federal Funds wire (as elected by
the shareholder) within seven days after the Transfer Agent receives
redemption instructions in proper form. However, under unusual
circumstances determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
payment may be delayed or suspended. For accounts registered in the
name of a broker-dealer, payment will normally be forwarded within
three business days after redemption.
The Transfer Agent may delay processing any type of redemption payment as
described under "How to Sell Shares" for recently purchased shares, but
only until the purchase payment has cleared. That delay may be as much
as 10 days from the date the shares were purchased. That delay may be
avoided if you purchase shares by Federal Funds wire or certified
check, or arrange with your bank to provide telephone or written
assurance to the Transfer Agent that your purchase payment has cleared.
Involuntary redemptions of small accounts may be made by the Fund if the
account value has fallen below $200 for reasons other than the fact
that the market value of shares has dropped. In some cases, involuntary
redemptions may be made to repay the Distributor for losses from the
cancellation of share purchase orders.
Shares may be "redeemed in kind" under unusual circumstances (such as a lack
of liquidity in the Fund's portfolio to meet redemptions). This means
that the redemption proceeds will be paid with liquid securities from
the Fund's portfolio. If the Fund redeems your shares in kind, you may
bear transaction costs and will bear market risks until such time as
such securities are converted into cash.
Federal regulations may require the Fund to obtain your name, your date of
birth (for a natural person), your residential street address or
principal place of business and your Social Security Number, Employer
Identification Number or other government issued identification when
you open an account. Additional information may be required in certain
circumstances or to open corporate accounts. The Fund or the Transfer
Agent may use this information to attempt to verify your identity. The
Fund may not be able to establish an account if the necessary
information is not received. The Fund may also place limits on account
transactions while it is in the process of attempting to verify your
identity. Additionally, if the Fund is unable to verify your identity
after your account is established, the Fund may be required to redeem
your shares and close your account.
"Backup withholding" of federal income tax may be applied against taxable
dividends, distributions and redemption proceeds (including exchanges)
if you fail to furnish the Fund your correct, certified Social Security
or Employer Identification Number when you sign your application, or if
you under-report your income to the Internal Revenue Service.
To avoid sending duplicate copies of materials to households, the Fund will
mail only one copy of each prospectus, annual and semi-annual report
and annual notice of the Fund's privacy policy to shareholders having
the same last name and address on the Fund's records. The consolidation
of these mailings, called householding, benefits the Fund through
reduced mailing expense.

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

DIVIDENDS. The Fund intends to declare dividends separately for each class of
shares from net investment income on each regular business day and to pay
those dividends to shareholders quarterly in March, June, September and
December on a date selected by the Board of Trustees. Daily dividends will
not be declared or paid on newly-purchased shares until Federal Funds are
available to the Fund from the purchase payment for the shares. Dividends and
other distributions paid on Class A and Class M shares will generally be
higher than dividends for Class B, Class C or Class N shares, which normally
have higher expenses than Class A shares. The Fund cannot guarantee that it
will pay any dividends or other distributions.

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

WHAT CHOICES DO YOU HAVE FOR RECEIVING DISTRIBUTIONS? When you open your
account, specify on your application how you want to receive your dividends
and distributions. You have four options:
Reinvest All Distributions in the Fund. You can elect to reinvest all
dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the
Fund.
Reinvest Dividends or Capital Gains. You can elect to reinvest some
distributions (dividends, short-term capital gains or long-term capital
gains distributions) in the Fund while receiving the other types of
distributions by check or having them sent to your bank account through
AccountLink.
Receive All Distributions in Cash. You can elect to receive a check for all
dividends and capital gains distributions or have them sent to your
bank through AccountLink.
Reinvest Your Distributions in Another OppenheimerFunds Account. You can
reinvest all distributions in the same class of shares of another
OppenheimerFunds account you have established.

TAXES. If your shares are not held in a tax-deferred retirement account, you
should be aware of the following tax implications of investing in the Fund.
Distributions are subject to federal income tax and may be subject to state
or local taxes. Dividends paid from short-term capital gains and net
investment income are taxable as ordinary income. Long-term capital gains are
taxable as long-term capital gains when distributed to shareholders. It does
not matter how long you have held your shares. Whether you reinvest your
distributions in additional shares or take them in cash, the tax treatment is
the same.

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

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

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

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

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

ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

The Fund's Investment Policies. The allocation of the Fund's portfolio and
the techniques and strategies that the Manager may use in selecting portfolio
securities will vary over time. The Fund is not required to use all of the
investment techniques and strategies described below in seeking its
objective. It may use some of the special investment techniques and
strategies at some times or not at all.

|X| Convertible Securities. Convertible securities are fixed-income
securities that may be exchanged for or converted into the underlying common
stock of the issuer at the option of the holder during a specified period of
time. Convertible securities may take the form of convertible preferred
stock, convertible bonds or notes, or other fixed-income securities with
stock purchase warrants. They may have a combination of the features of
several of these securities.

Because of the conversion feature, the price of a convertible security
normally will vary in proportion to changes in the price of the underlying
common stock. Convertible securities in general are subject to less price
volatility than the common stocks into which they are convertible because of
their comparatively higher yields. The investment characteristics of each
convertible security vary, and that variety enables the Fund to use
convertible securities in different ways to pursue its investment objective
of high total return. For example, the Fund can invest in:
o convertible securities that provide a relatively high level of income,
with less appreciation potential,
o convertible securities that have high appreciation potential and a
relatively low level of income, and
o convertible securities that provide some combination of both income and
appreciation potential.

Convertible bonds and convertible preferred stocks are fixed-income
securities that retain the investment characteristics of fixed-income
securities until they have been converted. The holder is entitled to receive
the fixed income of a bond or the dividend preference of a preferred stock
until the holder elects to exercise the conversion privilege. Convertible
securities are senior securities and therefore have a claim against the
assets of the issuing corporation that is superior to the claims of holders
of the issuer's common stock upon liquidation of the corporation. Convertible
securities, however, are generally subordinated to similar non-convertible
securities of the same company. The interest income and dividends from
convertible bonds and preferred stocks provide income potential and yields
that are generally higher than common stocks, but which are generally lower
than non-convertible securities of similar credit quality.

As with all fixed-income securities, convertible securities are subject
to changes in value from changes in the level of prevailing interest rates.
However, the conversion feature of convertible securities, giving the owner
the right to exchange them for the issuer's common stock, in general causes
the market value of convertible securities to increase when the value of the
underlying common stock increases, and to fall when the stock price falls.
Since securities prices fluctuate, however, there can be no assurance that
the market value of convertible securities will increase. Convertible
securities generally do not have the same potential for capital appreciation
as the underlying stock. When the value of the underlying common stock is
falling, the value of the convertible security may not experience the same
decline as the underlying common stock. It tends to decline to a level (often
called investment value) approximating the yield-to-maturity basis of
non-convertible debt of similar credit quality.

Many convertible securities sell at a premium over their conversion
values. Conversion value is the number of shares of common stock to be
received upon conversion multiplied by the current market price of the stock.
That premium represents the price investors are willing to pay for the
privilege of purchasing a fixed-income security having capital appreciation
potential because of the conversion privilege. If the Fund buys a convertible
security at a premium, there can be no assurance that the underlying common
stock will appreciate enough for the Fund to recover the premium on the
convertible security.

While some convertible securities are a form of debt security, in many
cases their conversion feature (allowing conversion into equity securities)
causes them to be regarded by the Manager more as "equity equivalents." As a
result, the credit rating assigned to the security has less impact on the
Manager's investment decision than in the case of non-convertible
fixed-income 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 prevailing interest rates fall and
decrease when prevailing interest rates rise. If the conversion value exceeds
the investment value, the security will behave more like an equity security.
In that case it will likely sell at a premium over its conversion value and
its price will tend to fluctuate directly with the price of the underlying
security.

|X| Convertible Preferred Stock. Preferred stock, unlike common stock,
has a stated dividend rate payable from the corporation's earnings. Preferred
stock dividends may be cumulative or non-cumulative, participating, or
auction rate. "Cumulative" dividend provisions require all or a portion of
prior unpaid dividends to be paid before dividends can be paid to the
issuer's common stock. "Participating" preferred stock 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 the stock to be called or redeemed prior to its maturity, which can
have a negative impact on the stock's price when interest rates decline.
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. 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.

While preferred stock is an equity security, some convertible preferred
stock has characteristics of both a debt security and a call option. These
securities can be considered derivative securities because of their call
option component, described below. Typically these stocks are convertible to
common stock after a three-year period (although they are callable by the
issuer prior to conversion). They pay a cumulative, fixed dividend that is
senior to, and expected to be in excess of, the dividends paid on the common
stock of the same issuer.

o Mandatory-Conversion Securities. The Fund can also invest in a
more recently-developed variety of convertible securities referred to as
"mandatory-conversion securities." These securities may combine several of
the features of debt securities and equity securities, including both
preferred stock and common stock. Unlike more traditional convertible
securities, however, many of these securities have a mandatory conversion
feature and an adjustable conversion ratio. As a result, many of these
securities offer limited potential for capital appreciation and, in some
instances, are subject to unlimited potential for loss of capital.

These securities are designed and marketed by major investment banking
firms and trade in the marketplace under various acronyms that are
proprietary to the investment banking firm. The Fund may be exposed to
counter-party risk to the extent it invests in synthetic mandatory conversion
securities which are issued by investment banking firms. Those are unsecured
obligations of the issuing firm. Should the firm that issued the security
experience financial difficulty, its ability to perform according to the
terms of the security might become impaired. The mandatory conversion
securities which may be purchased by the Fund include, among others,
"equity-linked debt securities," discussed below, and certain varieties of
convertible preferred stock.

At any time prior to the mandatory conversion date, the issuer can
redeem the preferred stock. At its mandatory conversion date, the preferred
stock is converted into a share (or a fraction of a share) of the issuer's
common stock at the call price that was established at the time the preferred
stock was issued. Generally, the call price is 30% to 45% above the price of
the issuer's common stock at the time the preferred stock is issued and may
be subject to downward adjustment over time. If the share price of the
related common stock on the mandatory conversion date is less than the call
price, the holder of the preferred stock will nonetheless receive only one
share of common stock for each share of preferred stock (plus cash in the
amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends).

The issuer must issue to the holder of the preferred stock the number
of shares of common stock equal to the call price of the preferred stock in
effect on the date of redemption divided by the market value of the common
stock. That market value typically is determined one or two trading days
prior to the date notice of redemption is given. The issuer must also pay the
holder of the preferred stock cash in an amount equal to any accrued but
unpaid dividends on the preferred stock.

Convertible preferred stock is subject to the same market risk as the
common stock of the issuer. However that risk may be mitigated by the higher
dividend paid on the preferred stock. This convertible preferred stock offers
limited opportunity for appreciation, however, because of the call feature.
If the market value of the issuer's common stock increases to the call price
or above the call price of the preferred stock, the issuer can (and would be
expected to) call the preferred stock for redemption at the call price. This
convertible preferred stock is also subject to credit risk of the issuer as
to its ability to pay the dividend. Generally, convertible preferred stock is
less volatile than the related common stock of the issuer, in part because of
the fixed dividend.

o Equity-Linked Debt Securities. The Fund can purchase mandatory
conversion debt securities whose principal amount at maturity depends upon
the performance of a specified equity security. These "equity-linked debt
securities" are a form of derivative security and differ from ordinary debt
securities in that the principal amount received at maturity is not fixed.
Instead, their principal value is based on the price of the linked equity
security at the time the debt security matures. These debt securities usually
mature in three to four years, and during the years to maturity pay interest
at a fixed rate.

Although these debt securities are typically adjusted for events such
as stock splits, stock dividends and certain other events that affect the
market value of the linked equity security, the debt securities are not
adjusted if additional equity securities are issued for cash. An additional
issuance of equity securities of the type to which the debt security is
linked could adversely affect the price of the debt security. In general,
however, these debt securities are less volatile than the equity securities
to which they are linked.

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

While the changes in value of the Fund's portfolio securities after
they are purchased will be reflected in the net asset value of the Fund's
shares, those changes normally do not affect the interest income paid by
those securities (unless the security's interest is paid at a variable rate
pegged to particular interest rate changes). However, those price
fluctuations will be reflected in the valuations of the securities, and
therefore the Fund's net asset values will be affected by those fluctuations.

|X| 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 Fund's debt investments can include high-yield,
non-investment-grade bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").
Investment-grade bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moody's), at least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Rating Services
("S&P") or Fitch, Inc., or that have comparable ratings by another
nationally-recognized rating organization.

In making investments in debt securities, the Manager may rely to some
extent on the ratings of ratings organizations or it may use its own research
to evaluate a security's creditworthiness. If securities the Fund buys are
unrated, they are assigned a rating by the Manager of comparable quality to
bonds having similar yield and risk characteristics within a rating category
of a rating organization.

The Fund does not have investment policies establishing specific
maturity ranges for the Fund's investments, and they may be within any
maturity range (short, medium or long) depending on the Manager's evaluation
of investment opportunities available within the debt securities markets.
Generally, however, it is expected that the Fund's average portfolio maturity
will be of a longer average maturity. The Fund may shift its investment focus
to securities of longer maturity as interest rates decline and to securities
of shorter maturity as interest rates rise.

o Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. The Fund can invest
without limit in lower-grade debt securities, and the Fund will normally
invest its assets primarily in these securities to seek its objective.
Lower-grade securities tend to offer higher yields than investment-grade
securities, but also are subject to greater risks of default by the issuer
in its obligations to pay interest and/or repay principal on the maturity of
the security.

"Lower-grade" debt securities are those rated below "investment grade,"
which means they have a rating lower than "Baa" by Moody's or lower than
"BBB" by S & P or Fitch, Inc., or similar ratings by other rating
organizations. If they are unrated, and are determined by the Manager to be
of comparable quality to debt securities rated below investment grade, they
are considered part of the Fund's portfolio of lower-grade securities. The
Fund will not invest in securities rated below "C" or which are in default at
the time the Fund buys them.

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 risk of foreign investing discussed in
the Prospectus and in this Statement of Additional Information.

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

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

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

|X| Portfolio Turnover. "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at
which the Fund trades its portfolio securities during its fiscal year. For
example, if a fund sold all of its securities during the year, its portfolio
turnover rate would have been 100%. The Fund's portfolio turnover rate will
fluctuate from year to year, and the Fund does not expect to have a portfolio
turnover rate in excess of 150% annually.

Increased portfolio turnover creates higher brokerage and transaction
costs for the Fund, which may reduce its overall performance. Additionally,
the realization of capital gains from selling portfolio securities may result
in distributions of taxable long-term capital gains to shareholders, since
the Fund will normally distribute all of its capital gains realized each
year, to avoid excise taxes under the Internal Revenue Code.

|X| Foreign Securities. The Fund can invest up to 15% of its net assets
in foreign securities. These primarily will be fixed-income debt securities
issued or guaranteed by foreign companies. "Foreign securities" include
equity and debt securities of companies organized under the laws of countries
other than the United States. They may be traded on foreign securities
exchanges or in the foreign over-the-counter markets.

The percentage of the Fund's assets that will be allocated to foreign
securities will vary over time depending on a number of factors. Those
factors may include the Manager's analysis of relative yields of foreign and
U.S. securities, the economies of foreign countries, the condition of a
country's financial markets, the interest rate climate of particular foreign
countries and the relationship of particular foreign currencies to the U.S.
dollar. The Manager analyzes fundamental economic criteria (for example,
relative inflation levels and trends, growth rate forecasts, balance of
payments status, and economic policies) as well as technical and political
data.

Securities of foreign issuers that are represented by American
Depository Receipts or that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange or
traded in the U.S. over-the-counter markets are not considered "foreign
securities" for the purpose of the Fund's investment allocations, 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 Fund can purchase securities denominated in foreign
currencies, a change in the value of such foreign currency against the U.S.
dollar will result in a change in the amount of income the Fund has available
for distribution. Because a portion of the Fund's investment income may be
received in foreign currencies, the Fund will be required to compute its
income in U.S. dollars for distribution to shareholders, and therefore the
Fund will absorb the cost of currency fluctuations. After the Fund has
distributed income, subsequent foreign currency losses may result in the
Fund's having distributed more income in a particular fiscal period than was
available from investment income, which could result in a return of capital
to shareholders.

Investing in foreign securities offers potential benefits not available
from investing solely in securities of domestic issuers. They include the
opportunity to invest in foreign issuers that appear to offer high income
potential, or in foreign countries with economic policies or business cycles
different from those of the U.S., or to reduce fluctuations in portfolio
value by taking advantage of foreign securities markets that do not move in a
manner parallel to U.S. markets. The Fund will hold foreign currency only in
connection with the purchase or sale of foreign securities.

o Risks of Foreign Investing. Investments in foreign securities
may offer special opportunities for investing but also present special
additional risks and considerations not typically associated with investments
in domestic securities. Some of these additional risks are:
o reduction of income by foreign taxes;
o fluctuation in value of foreign investments due to changes in currency
rates 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.

o 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 Manager will consider these factors when evaluating securities in these
markets, because the selection of those securities must be consistent with
the Fund's investment objective.

|X| Warrants. As a fundamental policy, the Fund cannot invest more than
15% of the value of its net assets in warrants, and not more than 5% of the
Fund's net assets may be invested in warrants that are not listed on The New
York Stock Exchange or The American Stock Exchange. That policy does not
limit the Fund's acquisition of warrants that have been acquired in units or
attached to other securities. This fundamental policy is currently limited by
an operational policy under which the Fund will not invest more than 5% of
the value of its net assets in warrants, and not more than 2% of the Fund's
net assets may be invested in warrants that are not listed on the New York or
American Stock Exchanges. Warrants acquired by the Fund in units or attached
to securities are deemed to be without value for purposes of the limitation
imposed by the operational policy.

A warrant basically is an option to purchase common stock at a specific
price valid for a specific period of time. Usually the price is at a premium
above the market value of the applicable common stock at its issuance.
Warrants may have a life ranging from less than a year to twenty years or may
be perpetual. However, many warrants have expiration dates after which they
are worthless unless the warrants are exercised or sold before they expire.
In addition, if the market price of the common stock does not exceed the
exercise price of the warrant during the life of the warrant, the warrant
will expire worthless. Warrants have no voting rights, pay no dividends and
have no rights with respect to the assets of the corporation issuing them.
The market price of a warrant may increase or decrease more than the market
price of the optioned common stock.

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

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

The majority of these transactions run from day to day. Delivery
pursuant to resale typically will occur within one to five days of the
purchase. Repurchase agreements having a maturity beyond seven days are
subject to the Fund's limits on holding illiquid investments.

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

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"), the Fund, along with other affiliated entities
managed by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or
more joint repurchase accounts. These balances are invested in one or more
repurchase agreements, secured by U.S. government securities. Securities 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. Under policies established by
the Fund's Board of Trustees, the Manager determines the liquidity of some of
the Fund's securities. The Manager monitors holdings of illiquid and
restricted securities on an ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any
holdings to maintain adequate liquidity.

To enable the Fund to sell its holdings of a restricted security not
registered under applicable securities laws, the Fund may have to cause those
securities to be registered. The expenses of registering restricted
securities may be negotiated by the Fund with the issuer at the time the Fund
buys the securities. When the Fund must arrange registration because the Fund
wishes to sell the security, a considerable period may elapse between the
time the decision is made to sell the security and the time the security is
registered so that the Fund could sell it. The Fund would bear the risks of
any downward price fluctuation during that period.

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

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

|X| Borrowing for Leverage. The Fund has a fundamental policy that
permits it to borrow from banks on an unsecured basis, to invest the borrowed
funds in portfolio securities. This technique is known as "leverage." Under
applicable law, borrowings can be made only to the extent that the value of
the Fund's assets, less its liabilities other than borrowings, is equal to at
least 300% of all borrowings (including the proposed borrowing). If the value
of the Fund's assets fails to meet this 300% asset coverage requirement, the
Fund is required to reduce its bank debt within 3 days to meet the
requirement. To do so, the Fund might have to sell a portion of its
investments at a disadvantageous time.

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

|X| Loans of Portfolio Securities. To raise cash for liquidity or
income purposes, the Fund can lend its portfolio securities to brokers,
dealers and other types of financial institutions approved by the Fund's
Board of Trustees. These loans are limited to not more than 10% of the value
of the Fund's net assets under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees. The Fund currently does not intend to lend its securities.

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

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

|X| Derivatives. The Fund can invest in a variety of derivative
investments to seek income or for hedging purposes. Some derivative
investments the Fund can use are the hedging instruments described below in
this Statement of Additional Information.

Among the derivative investments the Fund can invest in are "debt
exchangeable for common stock" of an issuer or "equity-linked debt
securities" of an issuer described in "Convertible Preferred Stock," above.
At maturity, the debt security is exchanged for common stock of the issuer or
it is payable in an amount based on the price of the issuer's common stock at
the time of maturity. Both
alternatives present a risk that the amount payable at maturity will be less
than the principal amount of the debt because the price of the issuer's
common stock might not be as high as the Manager expected.

|X| Hedging. The Fund can use hedging to attempt to protect against
declines in the market value of its portfolio, to permit the Fund to retain
unrealized gains in the value of portfolio securities that have appreciated,
or to facilitate selling securities for investment reasons. To do so the Fund
could:
o buy puts on securities, or
o write covered calls on securities. Covered calls can also be written on
debt securities to attempt to increase the Fund's income.

The Fund is not obligated to use hedging instruments, even though it is
permitted to use them in the Manager's discretion, as described below. The
particular options the Fund can use are described below. The Fund may employ
other hedging instruments and strategies in the future, if those investment
methods are consistent with the Fund's investment objective and fundamental
policies, are permissible under applicable regulations governing the Fund and
are approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees.

The Fund can buy and sell only certain kinds of put options (puts) and
call options (calls). The Fund limits its options trading activity to writing
covered calls on stocks (including the stock underlying a convertible
security the Fund owns), purchasing put options on stocks, and entering into
closing transactions. These strategies are described below.

o Writing Covered Call Options. The Fund can write (that is,
sell) call options on stocks. The Fund's call writing is subject to a number
of restrictions:
(1) Calls the Fund sells must be listed on a national securities exchange.
(2) Each call the Fund writes must be "covered" while it is outstanding.
That means the Fund must own the stock on which the call was
written or must own a security convertible into the stock on
which the option is written.
(3) As a fundamental policy, the Fund cannot write a call that would cause
the value of its securities underlying call options (valued at
the lower of the option price or market value) to exceed 25%
of its net assets.

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

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

The Fund may buy calls only to close out a call it has written, as
discussed above. Calls the Fund buys must be listed on a securities exchange.
To terminate its obligation on a call it has written, the Fund may purchase a
corresponding call in a "closing purchase transaction." The Fund will then
realize a profit or loss, depending upon whether the net of the amount of the
option transaction costs and the premium received on the call the Fund wrote
was more or less than the price of the call the Fund purchased to close out
the transaction. A profit may also be realized if the call lapses
unexercised, because the Fund retains the underlying investment and the
premium received. Any such profits are considered short-term capital gains
for federal income tax purposes, as are the premiums on lapsed calls. When
distributed by the Fund they are taxable as ordinary income. If the Fund
cannot effect a closing purchase transaction due to the lack of a market, it
will have to hold the callable securities until the call expires or is
exercised.

o Purchasing Puts. The Fund may buy only those puts that relate
to stocks, including stocks underlying the convertible securities that the
Fund owns. The Fund may not sell puts other than puts it has previously
purchased, to close out a position.

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

o Risks of Hedging with Options. The use of hedging instruments
requires special skills and knowledge of investment techniques that are
different than what is required for normal portfolio management. If the
Manager uses a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judges market
conditions incorrectly, hedging strategies may reduce the Fund's returns.

The Fund's option activities could affect its portfolio turnover rate
and brokerage commissions. The exercise of calls written by the Fund might
cause the Fund to sell related portfolio securities, thus increasing its
turnover rate. The Fund could pay a brokerage commission each time it buys a
call or put, sells a call or put, or buys or sells an underlying investment
in connection with the exercise of a call or put. Such commissions might be
higher on a relative basis than the commissions for direct purchases or sales
of the underlying investments. Premiums paid for options are small in
relation to the market value of the underlying investments. Consequently, put
and call options offer large amounts of leverage. The leverage offered by
trading in options could result in the Fund's net asset value being more
sensitive to changes in the value of the underlying investment.

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

An option position may be closed out only on a market that provides
secondary trading for options of the same series. There is no assurance that
a liquid secondary market will exist for a particular option.

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

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

o high-quality, (rated in the top two rating categories of
nationally-recognized rating organizations or deemed by the Manager
to be of comparable quality) short-term money market instruments,
including those issued by the U. S. Treasury or other government
agencies,
o commercial paper (rated in the top two rating categories of a
nationally-recognized rating organization) short-term, unsecured,
promissory notes of domestic or foreign companies,
o debt obligations of corporate issuers, rated investment grade (rated at
least Baa by Moody's or at least BBB by S&P, or a comparable rating
by another rating organization) or unrated securities judged by the
Manager to be of a quality comparable to rated securities in those
categories,
o certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic and
foreign banks and savings and loan associations, and
o repurchase agreements.

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

Investment in Other Investment Companies. The Fund can also invest in the
securities of other investment companies, which can include open-end funds,
closed-end funds and unit investment trusts, subject to the limits set forth
in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act") that
apply to those types of investments. For example, the Fund can invest in
Exchange-Traded Funds, which are typically open-end funds or unit investment
trusts, listed on a stock exchange. The Fund might do so as a way of gaining
exposure to the segments of the equity or fixed-income markets represented by
the Exchange-Traded Funds' portfolio, at times when the Fund 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 Fund does not intend to invest in other investment companies unless the
Manager believes that the potential benefits of the investment justify the
payment of any premiums or sales charges. As a shareholder of an investment
company, the Fund would be subject to its ratable share of that investment
company's expenses, including its advisory and administration expenses. The
Fund does not anticipate investing a substantial amount of its net assets in
shares of other investment companies.

Other Investment Restrictions

|X| What Are "Fundamental Policies?" Fundamental policies are those
policies that the Fund has adopted to govern its investments that can be
changed only by the vote of a "majority" of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities. Under the Investment Company Act, such a "majority" vote is
defined as the vote of the holders of the lesser of:
o 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at a
shareholder meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the
outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or
o more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

The Fund's investment objective is not a fundamental policy, but will
not be changed without approval by the Fund's Board of Trustees and prior
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 Fund's Board of Trustees can change non-fundamental
policies without shareholder approval. However, significant changes to
investment policies will be described in supplements or updates to the
Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information, as appropriate. The
Fund's principal investment policies are described in the Prospectus.

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

o The Fund may not invest more than 25% of the value of the Fund's
total assets in the securities of any one issuer or any group of issuers in
the same industry. However, this restriction does not prevent the Fund from
investing more than 25% of its total assets in securities of the United
States government, or its agencies or instrumentalities.

o With respect to 50% of its total assets, the Fund must limit its
investments to cash, cash items, U.S. government securities and securities of
issuers in which its investments are limited to not more than 5% of the value
of its total assets in the securities of any one issuer and not more than 10%
of its total assets in the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer.

o The Fund may not purchase securities on margin. However, the Fund can
obtain unsecured loans to purchase securities. The aggregate of all unsecured
loans, however, may not exceed 50% of the Fund's total assets. It can also
borrow amounts equivalent to up to 5% of the Fund's net assets for temporary,
extraordinary or emergency purposes.

o The Fund may not make short sales on securities or maintain a short
position. An exception the Fund can do so if at all times when a short
position is open, the Fund owns an equal amount of the securities sold short
or the Fund owns securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for
securities of the same issue as, and equal in amount to, the securities sold
short, without payment of further consideration. Not more than 10% of the
Fund's total assets may be held as collateral for these short sales at any
one time.

o The Fund may not purchase or sell put and call options nor write put
or call options, except as set forth in the Prospectus or this Statement of
Additional Information.

o The Fund may not invest in warrants in amounts in excess of 15% of
the value of its net assets. The valuation of warrants for the purpose of
that limitation shall be determined at the lower of cost or market value.
Warrants acquired by the Fund as part of a unit or attached to securities at
the time of purchase do not count against that percentage limitation. Not
more than 5% of the Fund's net assets may be invested in warrants that are
not listed on The New York Stock Exchange or The American Stock Exchange.

o The Fund may not make loans. However, this policy does not prohibit
the Fund from (1) making loans of its portfolio securities, (2) purchasing
notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness, (3) making deposits with
banks and other financial institutions, or (4) entering into repurchase
agreements.

o The Fund may not purchase or sell real estate or real estate mortgage
loans. However, the Fund may invest not more than 5% of its total assets in
marketable securities of real estate investment trusts.

o The Fund may not deal in commodities or commodities contracts.

o The Fund may not purchase or retain securities of any issuer if any
of its officers and trustees, or any of the officers and directors of the
Manager or the Distributor own individually beneficially more than 0.5% of
the outstanding securities of that issuer, or if all of those persons
together own more than 5% of that issuer's securities.

o The Fund may not invest more than 5% of the value of its total assets
in securities of any company (including its predecessors) that has not been
in business for at least three consecutive years.

o The Fund may not issue any securities that are senior to shares of
the Fund.

o The Fund may not underwrite securities of other issuers.

o The Fund may not acquire securities of any other investment company,
if as a result of that acquisition, the Fund would own in the aggregate: (1)
more than 3% of the voting stock of that investment company; (2) securities
of that investment company having an aggregate value in excess of 5% of the
value of the total assets of the Fund; or (3) securities of that investment
company and of any other investment companies (but excluding treasury stock
of those funds) having an aggregate value in excess of 10% of the total
assets of the Fund. However, none of these limitations applies to a security
received as a dividend or as a result of an offer of exchange, a merger or
plan of reorganization.

o With respect to 75% of its total assets, the Fund cannot buy
securities issued or guaranteed by any one issuer if more than 5% of the
Fund's total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer or if the
Fund would then own more than 10% of that issuer's voting securities. That
restriction does not apply to cash or cash items or securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

Does the Fund Have Any Restrictions That Are Not Fundamental? The Fund has a
number of other investment restrictions that are not fundamental policies,
which means that they can be changed by the Board of Trustees without
shareholder approval. While these investment policies do not require
shareholder approval to be changed, as a matter of operating policy, the Fund
has agreed not to change these policies without prior notice to its
shareholders. These operating policies provide that the Fund may not do any
of the following:

o The Fund may not invest in any issuer for the purpose of exercising
control or management of that issuer, unless approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees.

o The Fund may not invest any part of its total assets in interests in
oil, gas, or other mineral exploration or development programs, although it
may invest in securities of companies which invest in or sponsor such
programs. The Fund may not invest in oil, gas or other mineral leases.

o The Fund may not invest more than 5% of the value of its net assets
in warrants, valued at the lower of cost or market value. The Fund can buy
warrants that are not listed on The New York Stock Exchange or The American
Stock Exchange, but they count toward the 5% limit on warrants described
above and may not exceed 2% of the value of the Fund's net assets. Warrants
acquired by the Fund in units or attached to securities are not covered by
this restriction.

o The Fund cannot invest in the securities of other registered
investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in reliance on
sub-paragraph (F) or (G) of section 12(d)(1) of the Investment Company Act.

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

In carrying out its policy with respect to concentration of
investments, the Fund applies that policy to prohibit the Fund from making an
investment in the securities of any one issuer or group of issuers in the
same industry if that investment would cause 25% or more of the value of the
Fund's total assets to be invested in that industry. In applying its policy
not to concentrate its investments, the Fund has adopted the industry
classifications set forth in Appendix B to this Statement of Additional
Information. This is not a fundamental policy.

In carrying out its policy prohibiting the issuance of senior
securities, the Fund interprets that policy not to prohibit certain
investment activities for which assets of the Fund are designated as
segregated to cover the related obligations. Examples of those activities
include borrowing money, repurchase agreements, and contracts to buy or sell
derivatives.

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

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

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

A list of the top 10 or more portfolio securities holdings (based on invested
----------
assets), listed by security or by issuer, as of the end of each month may be
disclosed to third parties (subject to the procedures below) no sooner than
15 days after month-end. The top 10 or more holdings also shall be posted on
the OppenheimerFunds' website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com in the "Fund
Profiles" section. Other general information about a Fund's portfolio
investments, such as portfolio composition by asset class, industry, country,
currency, credit rating or maturity, may also be posted with a 15-day lag.

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

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

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

o Employees of the Fund's Investment Advisor, Distributor and Transfer
Agent who need to have access to such information (as determined by
senior officers of such entity),
o The Fund's certified public accountants and auditors,
o Members of the Fund's Board and the Board's legal counsel,
o The Fund's custodian bank,
o A proxy voting service designated by the Fund and its Board,
o Rating/ranking organizations (such as Lipper and Morningstar),
o Portfolio pricing services retained by the Investment Advisor to
provide portfolio security prices, and
o Dealers, to obtain bids (price quotations, because securities are not
priced by the Fund's regular pricing services).

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

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

o Brokers and dealers in connection with portfolio transactions
(purchases and sales)
o Brokers and dealers to obtain bids or bid and asked prices (if
securities held by a Fund are not priced by the fund's regular pricing
services)
o Dealers to obtain price quotations where the fund is not identified as
the owner

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

o Response to legal process in litigation matters, such as responses to
subpoenas or in class action matters where the Fund may be part of the
plaintiff class (and seeks recovery for losses on a security) or a
defendant,
o Response to regulatory requests for information (the SEC, NASD, state
securities regulators, and/or foreign securities authorities, including
without limitation requests for information in inspections or for
position reporting purposes),
o To potential sub-advisors of portfolios (but only pursuant to
confidentiality agreements),
o To consultants for retirement plans for plan sponsors/discussions at
due diligence meetings (if entire portfolio holdings are provided,
however, it shall be done only pursuant to a confidentiality agreement),
o Investment bankers in connection with merger discussions (but only
pursuant to confidentiality agreements)

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

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

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

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

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History. The Fund is a series of Bond Fund Series, a
Massachusetts business trust organized in 1986 as an open-end, diversified
management investment company with an unlimited number of authorized shares
of beneficial interest (that trust is referred to in this section as the
"Fund's parent Trust" or the "Trust"). The Trust was originally named
Rochester Convertible Fund and was renamed Rochester Fund Series, which was
its name until it was renamed Bond Fund Series in 1997. The Fund is currently
the only series of the Trust and is a diversified fund. It was called The
Bond Fund for Growth until 1997. In 1997 it was re-named Oppenheimer Bond
Fund for Growth. The Fund's name was changed to Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund in 1998.

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

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

The Fund currently has five classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class
C, Class M and Class N. All classes invest in the same investment
portfolio. Only retirement plans may purchase Class N shares. Each class of
shares:
o has its own dividends and distributions,
o pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes,
o may have a different net asset value,
o may have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one
class are different from interests of another class, and
o votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Board of Trustees has an Audit Committee which is comprised solely
of Independent Trustees. The members of the Audit Committee are John Cannon,
Paul Y. Clinton (Chairman), Thomas W. Courtney, Robert G. Galli, Lacy B.
Herrmann and Brian Wruble. The Audit Committee met ___ times during the
Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.
The Audit Committee furnishes the Board with recommendations regarding the
selection of the Fund's independent auditor.

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

To date, the Committee has been able to identify from its own resources
an ample number of qualified candidates. Nonetheless, shareholders may
submit names of individuals, accompanies by complete and properly supported
resumes, for the Audit Committee's consideration by mailing such information
to the Committee in care of the Fund. 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.

Trustees and Officers of the Fund. Each of the Trustees is an "Independent
Trustee" under the Investment Company Act. The Fund's Trustees and officers
and their positions held with the Fund and length of service in such
position(s) and their principal occupations and business affiliations during
the past five years are listed in the chart below. The information for the
Trustees also includes the dollar range of shares of the Fund as well as the
aggregate dollar range of shares beneficially owned in any of the Oppenheimer
funds overseen by the Trustees. All of the Trustees are also trustees or
directors of the following Oppenheimer funds (except for Mr. Cannon who is
only a Trustee of Rochester Fund Municipals, Limited-Term New York Municipal
Fund and Convertible Securities Fund) (referred to as "Board III Funds"):

Oppenheimer Quest For Value Funds, a
series fund having the following three
series:

Oppenheimer Small Cap Value Fund, Oppenheimer Quest International Value
Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Quest Balanced Fund and Oppenheimer Quest Capital Value Fund,
Inc.
Oppenheimer Quest Opportunity Value Fund Oppenheimer Quest Value Fund, Inc.
Rochester Portfolio Series, a series fund Bond Fund Series, a series fund
having one series: Limited-Term New having one series: Oppenheimer
York Municipal Fund Convertible Securities Fund
Rochester Fund Municipals Oppenheimer MidCap Fund

In addition to being a trustee or director of the Board III Funds, Mr.
Galli is also a director or trustee of 25 other portfolios in the
OppenheimerFunds complex. Present or former officers, directors, trustees and
employees (and their immediate family members) of the Fund, the Manager and
its affiliates, and retirement plans established by them for their employees
are permitted to purchase Class A shares of the Fund and the other
Oppenheimer funds at net asset value without sales charge. The sales charge
on Class A shares is waived for that group because of the economies of sales
efforts realized by the Distributor.

Messrs. Everett, Murphy, Peteresen, Vandehey, Vottiero, Wixted and
Zack, and Mses. Bloomberg and Ives who are officers of the Fund, respectively
hold the same offices of one or more of the other Board III Funds as with the
Fund. As of _____________, 2005, the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a
group, owned of record or beneficially less than 1% of each class of shares
of the Fund. The foregoing statement does not reflect ownership of shares of
the Fund held of record by an employee benefit plan for employees of the
Manager, other than the shares beneficially owned under the plan by the
officers of the Fund listed above. In addition, each Independent Trustee, and
their family members, do not own securities of either the Manager or
Distributor of the Board III Funds or any person directly or indirectly
controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Manager or
Distributor.

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

1. Aggregate Compensation From Fund includes fees and deferred compensation,
if any, for a Trustee.
2. Estimated Annual Retirement Benefits to be Paid Upon Retirement is based
on a straight life payment plan election with the assumption that a Trustee
will retire at the age of 75 and is eligible (after 7 years of service) to
receive retirement plan benefits as described below under "Retirement Plan
for Trustees."
3. Compensation for Mr. Cannon was paid by Rochester Fund Municipals, Limited
Term New York Municipal Fund and Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund only.
4. Includes $43,933 estimated to be paid to Mr. Galli for serving as a
trustee or director of 25 other Oppenheimer funds (at December 31, 2004) that
are not Board III Funds.
5. Includes $129,312 paid to Mr. Galli for serving as trustee or director of
25 other Oppenheimer funds (at December 31, 2004) that are not Board III
Funds.

|X| Retirement Plan for Trustees. The Fund has adopted a retirement
plan that provides for payments to retired Trustees. Payments are up to 80%
of the average compensation paid during a Trustee's five years of service in
which the highest compensation was received. A Trustee must serve as Trustee
for any of the Board III Oppenheimer funds listed above for at least 15 years
to be eligible for the maximum payment. Each Trustee's retirement benefits
will depend on the amount of the Trustee's future compensation and length of
service.

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

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

|X| Major Shareholders. As of ____________, 2005, the only people who
owned of record or were known by the Fund to own beneficially 5% or more of
any class of the Fund's outstanding shares were:

TO BE UPDATED

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

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

The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement
filed with the SEC and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public
Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You can obtain information about the hours
of operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at
1.202.942.8090. The Code of Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's
registration statement on the SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's Internet
website at www.sec.gov. Copies may be obtained, after paying a duplicating

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

o The Fund votes with the recommendation of the issuer's management on
routine matters, including election of directors nominated by
management and ratification of auditors, unless circumstances indicate
otherwise.
o In general, the Fund opposes anti-takeover proposals and supports
elimination of anti-takeover proposals, absent unusual circumstances.
o The Fund supports shareholder proposals to reduce a super-majority vote
requirement, and opposes management proposals to add a super-majority
vote requirement.
o The Fund opposes proposals to classify the board of directors.
o The Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.
o The Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options.
o The Fund generally considers executive compensation questions such as
stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary business activity.
The Fund analyzes stock option plans, paying particular attention to
their dilutive effect. While the Fund generally supports management
proposals, the Fund opposes plans it considers to be excessive.

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

The Investment Advisory Agreement. The Manager provides investment
advisory and management services to the Fund under an investment advisory
agreement between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager selects securities
for the Fund's portfolio and handles its day-to-day business. The portfolio
manager of the Fund is employed by the Manager and is the person who is
principally responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's
portfolio. Other members of the Manager's Equity Portfolio Department provide
the portfolio managers with counsel and support in managing the Fund's
portfolio.

The agreement requires the Manager, at its expense, to provide the Fund
with adequate office space, facilities and equipment. It also requires the
Manager to provide and supervise the activities of all administrative and
clerical personnel required to provide effective administration for the Fund.
Those responsibilities include the compilation and maintenance of records
with respect to its operations, the preparation and filing of specified
reports, and composition of proxy materials and registration statements for
continuous public sale of shares of the Fund.

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

The investment advisory agreement states that in the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties or
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the investment
advisory agreement, the Manager is not liable for any loss the Fund sustains
for any investment, adoption of any investment policy, or the purchase, sale
or retention of any security.

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

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

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

The Board reviewed the foregoing information in arriving at its
decision to renew the investment advisory agreement. Among other factors, the
Board considered:
o The nature, cost, and quality of the services provided to the Fund and
its shareholders;
o The profitability of the Fund to the Manager;
o The investment performance of the Fund in comparison to regular market
indices;
o Economies of scale that may be available to the Fund from the Manager;
o Fees paid by other mutual funds for similar services;
o The value and quality of any other benefits or services received by the
Fund from its relationship with the Manager; and
o The direct and indirect benefits the Manager received from its
relationship with the Fund. These included services provided by the
Distributor and the Transfer Agent, and brokerage and soft dollar
arrangements permissible under Section 28(e) of the Securities
Exchange Act.

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

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

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

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

Brokerage Provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreement. One of the duties
of the Manager under the investment advisory agreement is to arrange the
portfolio transactions for the Fund. The advisory agreement contains
provisions relating to the employment of broker-dealers to effect the Fund's
portfolio transactions. The Manager is authorized by the advisory agreement
to employ broker-dealers, including "affiliated" brokers, as that term is
defined in the Investment Company Act. The Manager may employ broker-dealers
that the Manager thinks, in its best judgment based on all relevant factors,
will implement the policy of the Fund to obtain, at reasonable expense, the
"best execution" of the Fund's portfolio transactions. "Best execution" means
prompt and reliable execution at the most favorable price obtainable. The
Manager need not seek competitive commission bidding. However, it is expected
to be aware of the current rates of eligible brokers and to minimize the
commissions paid to the extent consistent with the interests and policies of
the Fund as established by its Board of Trustees.

Under the investment advisory agreement, in choosing brokers to execute
portfolio transactions for the Fund, the Manager may select brokers (other
than affiliates) that provide brokerage and/or research services to the Fund
and/or the other accounts over which the Manager or its affiliates have
investment discretion. The commissions paid to those brokers may be higher
than another qualified broker would charge, if the Manager makes a good faith
determination that the commission is fair and reasonable in relation to the
services provided.

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

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

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

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

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

In an option transaction, the Fund ordinarily uses the same broker for
the purchase or sale of the option and any transaction in the securities to
which the option relates. When possible, the Manager tries to combine
concurrent orders to purchase or sell the same security by more than one of
the accounts managed by the Manager or its affiliates. The transactions under
those combined orders are averaged as to price and allocated in accordance
with the purchase or sale orders actually placed for each account.

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

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

The Board of Trustees permits the Manager to use stated commissions on
secondary fixed-income agency trades to obtain research if the broker
represents to the Manager that: (i) the trade is not from or for the broker's
own inventory, (ii) the trade was executed by the broker on an agency basis
at the stated commission, and (iii) the trade is not a riskless principal
transaction. The Board of Trustees permits the Manager to use commissions on
fixed-price offerings to obtain research, in the same manner as is permitted
for agency transactions.

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

Distribution and Service Plans

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

With respect to purchases of Class A shares subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge by certain retirement plans that purchased such shares
prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement accounts"), the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after the shares are purchased. During the first year the shares
are sold, the Distributor retains the service fee to reimburse itself for the
costs of distributing the shares. After the first year shares are
outstanding, the Distributor makes service fee payments to recipients
quarterly on those shares. The advance payment is based on the net asset
value of shares sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for the
advance service fee payment. If Class A shares purchased by grandfathered
retirement accounts are redeemed during the first year after their purchase,
the recipient of the service fees on those shares will be obligated to repay
the Distributor a pro rata portion of the advance payment of the service fee
made on those shares.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 payments under the Class A
plan totaled $________, of which $________was retained by the Distributor
under the arrangement described above, regarding grandfathered retirement
accounts, and included $______ paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's
parent company. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect
to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years.
The Distributor may not use payments received under the Class A plan to pay
any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or
allocation of overhead.

Class B, Class C, Class M and Class N Distribution and Service Plan
Fees. Under each plan, distribution and service fees are computed on the
average of the net asset value of shares in the respective class, determined
as of the close of each regular business day during the period. Each plan
provides for the Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate, whether the
Distributor's distribution expenses are more or less than the amounts paid by
the Fund under the plan during the period for which the fee is paid. The
Class M plan allows the Distributor to be reimbursed for its services and
costs in distributing Class M shares and servicing accounts. The types of
services that recipients provide are similar to the services provided under
the Class A service plan, described above.

The Class B, Class C and Class N plans permit the Distributor to retain both
the asset-based sales charges and the service fees or to pay recipients the
service fee on a quarterly basis, without payment in advance. However, the
Distributor currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance
for the first year after Class B, Class C and Class N shares are purchased.
After the first year Class B, Class C or Class N shares are outstanding,
after their purchase, the Distributor makes service fee payments quarterly on
those shares. The advance payment is based on the net asset value of shares
sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for the advance service fee
payment. If Class B, Class C or Class N shares are redeemed during the first
year after their purchase, the recipient of the service fees on those shares
will be obligated to repay the Distributor a pro rata portion of the advance
payment of the service fee made on those shares. Class B, Class C or Class N
shares may not be purchased by an investor directly from the Distributor
without the investor designating another broker-dealer of record. If the
investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an existing
account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the broker-dealer of
record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the investor's agent to
purchase the shares. In those cases, the Distributor retains the asset-based
sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N shares, but does not retain
any service fees as to the assets represented by that account. The
Distributor does not receive or retain the service fee on Class B, Class C or
Class N shares in accounts for which it is listed as the broker-dealer of
record. If the investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an
existing account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the
broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the
investor's agent to purchase the shares. In those cases, the Distributor
retains the asset-based sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N
shares, but does not retain any service fees as to the assets represented by
that account.

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

The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B and
Class N shares. The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class
C shares during the first year the shares are outstanding. It pays the
asset-based sales charge as an ongoing concession to the recipient on Class C
shares outstanding for a year or more. Although the Class M Plan permits the
Fund to pay the Distributor a 0.50% asset-based sales charge annually, the
Board has set that payment at zero. If a dealer has a special agreement with
the Distributor, the Distributor will pay the Class B, Class C or Class N
service fee and the asset-based sales charge to the dealer quarterly in lieu
of paying the sales concession and service fee in advance at the time of
purchase.

The asset-based sales charge on Class B, Class C and Class N shares
allow investors to buy shares without a front-end sales charge while allowing
the Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those shares. The Fund pays
the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor for its services rendered in
distributing Class B, Class C and Class N shares. The payments are made to
the Distributor in recognition that the Distributor:
o pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at the time of
sale and pays service fees as described above,
o may finance payment of sales concessions and/or the advance of the
service fee payment to recipients under the plans, or may provide
such financing from its own resources or from the resources of an
affiliate,

o employs personnel to support distribution of Class B, Class C and Class
N shares,
o bears the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses
(other than those furnished to current shareholders) and state "blue
sky" registration fees and certain other distribution expenses,

o may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B,
Class C and Class N shares without receiving payment under the plans
and therefore may not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent
the plans,
o receives payments under the plans consistent with the service fees and
asset-based sales charges paid by other non-proprietary funds that
charge 12b-1 fees,
o may use the payments under the plan to include the Fund in various
third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund
shares,
o may experience increased difficulty selling the Fund's shares if
payments under the plan are discontinued because most competitor
funds have plans that pay dealers for rendering distribution
services as much or more than the amounts currently being paid by
the Fund, and
o may not be able to continue providing, at the same or at a lesser cost,
the same quality distribution sales efforts and services, or to
obtain such services from brokers and dealers, if the plan payments
were to be discontinued.

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

Performance of the Fund

Explanation of Performance Terminology. The Fund uses a variety of terms to
illustrate its investment performance. Those terms include "cumulative total
return," "average annual total return," "average annual total return at net
asset value" and "total return at net asset value." An explanation of how
total returns are calculated is set forth below. The charts below show the
Fund's performance as of the Fund's most recent fiscal year end. You can
obtain current performance information by calling the Fund's Transfer Agent
at 1.800.225.5677 or by visiting the OppenheimerFunds Internet website at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

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

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

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

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

o An investment in the Fund is not insured by the FDIC or any other
government agency.
o The principal value of the Fund's shares, its yields and total returns
are not guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.
o When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
o Yields and total returns for any given past period represent historical
performance information and are not, and should not be considered, a
prediction of future yields or returns.

The performance of each class of shares is shown separately, because
the performance of each class of shares will usually be different. That is
because of the different kinds of expenses each class bears. The yields and
total returns of each class of shares of the Fund are affected by market
conditions, the quality of the Fund's investments, the maturity of debt
investments, the types of investments the Fund holds, and its operating
expenses that are allocated to the particular class.

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

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

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

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

The symbols above represent the following factors:
a = dividends and interest earned during the 30-day period.
b = expenses accrued for the period (net of any expense assumptions).
c = the average daily number of shares of that class outstanding
during the 30-day period that were entitled to receive dividends.
d = the maximum offering price per share of that class on the last day
of the period, adjusted for undistributed net investment income.

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

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

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

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

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

In calculating total returns for Class A shares, the current maximum
sales charge of 5.75%, and for Class M, the current maximum initial sales
charge of 3.25% (as a percentage of the offering price) is deducted from the
initial investment ("P" in the formula below) (unless the return is shown
without sales charge, as described below). For Class B shares, payment of the
applicable contingent deferred sales charge is applied, depending on the
period for which the return is shown: 5.0% in the first year, 4.0% in the
second year, 3.0% in the third and fourth years, 2.0% in the fifth year, 1.0%
in the sixth year and none thereafter. For Class C shares, the 1.0%
contingent deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year
period. For Class N shares, the 1.0% contingent deferred sales charge is
deducted for returns for the one-year period, and total returns for the
periods prior to 03/01/01 (the inception date for Class N shares) are based
on the Fund's Class A returns, adjusted to reflect the higher Class N 12b-1
fees.

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

ERV l/n - 1 Average Annual Total
Return
P

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Morningstar Ratings. From time to time the Fund may publish the star
rating of the performance of its classes of shares by Morningstar, Inc., an
independent mutual fund monitoring service. Morningstar rates mutual funds in
their specialized market sector. The Fund is rated among convertibles.

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

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

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

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

From time to time the Fund may include in its advertisements and sales
literature the total return performance of a hypothetical investment account
that includes shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds. The combined
account may be part of an illustration of an asset allocation model or
similar presentation. The account performance may combine total return
performance of the Fund and the total return performance of other Oppenheimer
funds included in the account. Additionally, from time to time, the Fund's
advertisements and sales literature may include, for illustrative or
comparative purposes, statistical data or other information about general or
specific market and economic conditions. That may include, for example,
o information about the performance of certain securities or commodities
markets or segments of those markets,
o information about the performance of the economies of particular
countries or regions,
o the earnings of companies included in segments of particular
industries, sectors, securities markets, countries or regions,
o the availability of different types of securities or offerings of
securities,
o information relating to the gross national or gross domestic product of
the United States or other countries or regions,
o comparisons of various market sectors or indices to demonstrate
performance, risk, or other characteristics of the Fund.

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

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

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

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

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

A fiduciary can count all shares purchased for a trust, estate or other
fiduciary account (including one or more employee benefit plans of the same
employer) that has multiple accounts. The Distributor will add the value, at
current offering price, of the shares you previously purchased and currently
own to the value of current purchases to determine the sales charge rate that
applies. The reduced sales charge will apply only to current purchases. You
must request it when you buy shares.

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

Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals Oppenheimer Limited Term Municipal Fund

And the following money market funds:

Oppenheimer Cash Reserves Centennial Government Trust

Centennial America Fund, L. P. Centennial New York Tax Exempt Trust
Centennial California Tax Exempt Trust Centennial Tax Exempt Trust

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Retirement Plans. Certain types of retirement plans are entitled to purchase
shares of the Fund without sales charges or at reduced sales charge rates, as
described in an Appendix to this Statement of Additional Information.
Certain special sales charge arrangements described in that Appendix apply to
retirement plans whose records are maintained on a daily valuation basis by
Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") or an independent
record keeper that has a contract or special arrangement with Merrill Lynch.
If on the date the plan sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record keeping
service agreement the plan has less than $1 million in assets invested in
applicable investments (other than assets invested in money market funds),
then the retirement plan may purchase only Class C shares of the Oppenheimer
funds. If on the date the plan sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record
keeping service agreement the plan has $1 million or more in assets but less
than $5 million in assets invested in applicable investments (other than
assets invested in money market funds), then the retirement plan may purchase
only Class N shares of the Oppenheimer funds. If on the date the plan
sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record keeping service agreement the plan
has $5 million or more in assets invested in applicable investments (other
than assets invested in money market funds), then the retirement plan may
purchase only Class A shares of the Oppenheimer funds.

OppenheimerFunds has entered into arrangements with certain record
keepers whereby the Transfer Agent compensates the record keeper for its
record keeping and account servicing functions that it performs on behalf of
the participant level accounts of a retirement plan. While such compensation
may act to reduce the record keeping fees charged by the retirement plan's
record keeper, that compensation arrangement may be terminated at any time,
potentially affecting the record keeping fees charged by the retirement
plan's record keeper.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Listed below are certain cases in which the Fund has elected, in its
discretion, not to assess the Fund Account Fees. These exceptions are
subject to change:
A fund account whose shares were acquired after September 30th of
the prior year;
o A fund account that has a balance below $500 due to the automatic
conversion of shares from Class B to Class A shares. However,
once all Class B shares held in the account have been converted
to Class A shares the new account balance may become subject to
the Minimum Balance Fee;
o Accounts of shareholders who elect to access their account documents
electronically via eDoc Direct;
o A fund account that has only certificated shares and, has a balance
below $500 and is being escheated;
o Accounts of shareholders that are held by broker-dealers under the NSCC
Fund/SERV system;
o Accounts held under the Oppenheimer Legacy Program and/or holding
certain Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds;
o Omnibus accounts holding shares pursuant to the Pinnacle, Ascender,
Custom Plus, Recordkeeper Pro and Pension Alliance Retirement
Plan programs; and
o A fund account that falls below the $500 minimum solely due to market
fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the
fee is deducted.

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

Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share. The net asset values per share
of each class of shares of the Fund are determined as of the close of
business of the Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open. The
calculation is done by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets
attributable to a class by the number of shares of that class that are
outstanding. The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M., Eastern time, but may
close earlier on some other days (for example, in case of weather emergencies
or on days falling before a U.S. holiday). All references to time in this
Statement of Additional Information mean "Eastern time." The Exchange's most
recent annual announcement (which is subject to change) states that it will
close on New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good
Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and
Christmas Day. It may also close on other days.

Dealers other than Exchange members may conduct trading in certain
securities on days on which the Exchange is closed (including weekends and
holidays) or after 4:00 P.M. on a regular business day. Because the Fund's
net asset values will not be calculated on those days, the Fund's net asset
values per share may be significantly affected on such days when shareholders
may not purchase or redeem shares. 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 the Fund's calculation of its net asset values that day unless the Manager
determines that the event is likely to effect a material change in the value
of the security. The Manager, or an internal valuation committee established
by the Manager, as applicable, may establish a valuation, under procedures
established by the Board and subject to the approval, ratification and
confirmation by the Board at its next ensuing meeting

|X| Securities Valuation. The Fund's Board of Trustees has
established procedures for the valuation of the Fund's securities. In general
those procedures are as follows:
Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange or on Nasdaq(R)
are valued as follows:

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(R), as applicable, on that
day, or

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:
at the last sale price available to the pricing service approved
by the Board of Trustees, or
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 Fund's Board of
Trustees 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 Fund's
Board of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in
the security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:
(1) debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when
issued,
(2) debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued
and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
(3) non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or
less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60
days or less.
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 Trustees. The pricing service may use "matrix" comparisons to
the prices for comparable instruments on the basis of quality, yield and
maturity. Other special factors may be involved (such as the tax-exempt
status of the interest paid by municipal securities). The Manager will
monitor the accuracy of the pricing services. That monitoring may include
comparing prices used for portfolio valuation to actual sales prices of
selected securities.

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

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

How to Sell Shares

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

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

Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months of a redemption, a shareholder may
reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of:
o Class A shares purchased subject to an initial sales charge or Class A
shares on which a contingent deferred sales charge was paid, or
o Class B shares that were subject to the Class B contingent deferred
sales charge when redeemed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Distributions From Retirement Plans. Requests for distributions from
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, 403(b)(7) custodial
plans, 401(k) plans or pension or profit-sharing plans should be addressed to
"Trustee, OppenheimerFunds Retirement Plans," c/o the Transfer Agent at its
address listed in "How To Sell Shares" in the Prospectus or on the back cover
of this Statement of Additional Information. The request must:
(1) state the reason for the distribution;
(2) state the owner's awareness of tax penalties if the distribution is
premature; and
(3) conform to the requirements of the plan and the Fund's other redemption
requirements.

Participants (other than self-employed plan sponsors) in
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored pension or profit-sharing plans with shares of the
Fund held in the name of the plan or its fiduciary may not directly request
redemption of their accounts. The plan administrator or fiduciary must sign
the request.

Distributions from pension and profit sharing plans are subject to
special requirements under the Internal Revenue Code and certain documents
(available from the Transfer Agent) must be completed and submitted to the
Transfer Agent before the distribution may be made. Distributions from
retirement plans are subject to withholding requirements under the Internal
Revenue Code, and IRS Form W-4P (available from the Transfer Agent) must be
submitted to the Transfer Agent with the distribution request, or the
distribution may be delayed. Unless the shareholder has provided the Transfer
Agent with a certified tax identification number, the Internal Revenue Code
requires that tax be withheld from any distribution even if the shareholder
elects not to have tax withheld. The Fund, the Manager, the Distributor, and
the Transfer Agent assume no responsibility to determine whether a
distribution satisfies the conditions of applicable tax laws and will not be
responsible for any tax penalties assessed in connection with a distribution.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Exchange Shares

As stated in the Prospectus, shares of a particular class of Oppenheimer
funds having more than one class of shares may be exchanged only for shares
of the same class of other Oppenheimer funds. Shares of Oppenheimer funds
that have a single class without a class designation are deemed "Class A"
shares for this purpose. You can obtain a current list showing which funds
offer which classes of shares by calling the Distributor.

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

o Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are
generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of
other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k)
plans.
o Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be
exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may
not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market
Fund or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M
shares.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund may not be exchanged
for shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash
Reserves or Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund. Only participants
in certain retirement plans may purchase shares of Oppenheimer Capital
Preservation Fund, and only those participants may exchange shares of
other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation
Fund.
o Class A shares of Oppenheimer funds may be exchanged at net asset value
for shares of any money market fund offered by the Distributor. Shares
of any money market fund purchased without a sales charge may be
exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge
upon payment of the sales charge. They may also be used to purchase
shares of Oppenheimer funds subject to an early withdrawal charge or
contingent deferred sales charge.
o Shares of the Fund acquired by reinvestment of dividends or
distributions from any of the other Oppenheimer funds or from any unit
investment trust for which reinvestment arrangements have been made
with the Distributor may be exchanged at net asset value for shares of
any of the Oppenheimer funds.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund may be
exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer
funds. However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of
other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected
Main Street Fund until after the expiration of the warranty period
(8/5/2010).

o Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II may be
exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer
funds. However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of
other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected
Main Street Fund II until after the expiration of the warranty period
(2/4/2011).
o Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund III may be
exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer
funds. However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of
other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected
Main Street Fund III until after the expiration of the warranty period
(12/6/2011).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|X| Limits on Multiple Exchange Orders. The Fund reserves the right
to reject telephone or written exchange requests submitted in bulk by anyone
on behalf of more than one account.

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

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

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends and Distributions. The Fund has no fixed dividend rate and there
can be no assurance as to the payment of any dividends or the realization of
any capital gains. The dividends and distributions paid by a class of shares
will vary from time to time depending on market conditions, the composition
of the Fund's portfolio, and expenses borne by the Fund or borne separately
by a class. Dividends are calculated in the same manner, at the same time,
and on the same day for each class of shares. However, dividends on Class B,
Class C and Class N shares are expected to be lower than dividends on Class A
shares. That is because of the effect of the asset-based sales charge on
Class B, Class C and Class N shares. Those dividends will also differ in
amount as a consequence of any difference in the net asset values of the
different classes of shares.

Dividends, distributions and proceeds of the redemption of Fund shares
represented by checks returned to the Transfer Agent by the Postal Service as
undeliverable will be invested in shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund,
Inc. Reinvestment will be made as promptly as possible after the return of
such checks to the Transfer Agent, to enable the investor to earn a return on
otherwise idle funds. Unclaimed accounts may be subject to state escheatment
laws, and the Fund and the Transfer Agent will not be liable to shareholders
or their representatives for compliance with those laws in good faith.

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

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

Qualification as a Regulated Investment Company. The Fund has elected
to be taxed as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a regulated investment company,
the Fund is not subject to federal income tax on the portion of its net
investment income (that is, taxable interest, dividends, and other taxable
ordinary income, net of expenses) and capital gain net income (that is, the
excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses)
that it distributes to shareholders. That qualification enables the Fund to
"pass through" its income and realized capital gains to shareholders without
having to pay tax on them. This avoids a "double tax" on that income and
capital gains, since shareholders normally will be taxed on the dividends and
capital gains they receive from the Fund (unless their Fund shares are held
in a retirement account or the shareholder is otherwise exempt from tax).

The Internal Revenue Code contains a number of complex tests relating
to qualification that the Fund might not meet in a particular year. If it did
not qualify as a regulated investment company, the Fund would be treated for
tax purposes as an ordinary corporation and would receive no tax deduction
for payments made to shareholders.

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

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

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

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

Taxation of Fund Distributions. The Fund anticipates distributing
substantially all of its investment company taxable income for each taxable
year. Those distributions will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income
and treated as dividends for federal income tax purposes.

Special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code govern the eligibility
of the Fund's dividends for the dividends-received deduction for corporate
shareholders. Long-term capital gains distributions are not eligible for the
deduction. The amount of dividends paid by the Fund that may qualify for the
deduction is limited to the aggregate amount of qualifying dividends that the
Fund derives from portfolio investments that the Fund has held for a minimum
period, usually 46 days. A corporate shareholder will not be eligible for the
deduction on dividends paid on Fund shares held for 45 days or less. To the
extent the Fund's dividends are derived from gross income from option
premiums, interest income or short-term gains from the sale of securities or
dividends from foreign corporations, those dividends will not qualify for the
deduction.

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

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

Investment income that may be received by the Fund from sources within
foreign countries may be subject to foreign taxes withheld at the source. The
United States has entered into tax treaties with many foreign countries which
entitle the Fund to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, taxes on such
income.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

LONG-TERM RATINGS: BONDS AND PREFERRED STOCK ISSUER RATINGS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

N.R. Not rated.

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

Bond Investment Quality Standards

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Grade:

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

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.

OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers
--------------------------------------------------------------

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class
A shares1 of the Oppenheimer funds or the contingent deferred sales charge
that may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.2 That is
because of the economies of sales efforts realized by OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., (referred to in this document as the "Distributor"), or by
dealers or other financial institutions that offer those shares to certain
classes of investors.

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

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds,
the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
1) plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code,
2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
3) employee benefit plans3
4) Group Retirement Plans4
5) 403(b)(7) custodial plan accounts
6) Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), including traditional
IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs or SIMPLE plans

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

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

I. Applicability of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in Certain Cases
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

There is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of any
of the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases
may be subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed
within 18 months (24 months in the case of Oppenheimer Rochester National
Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals) of the beginning of the calendar
month of their purchase, as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver
described elsewhere in this Appendix applies to the redemption).
Additionally, on shares purchased under these waivers that are subject to the
Class A contingent deferred sales charge, the Distributor will pay the
applicable concession described in the Prospectus under "Class A Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge."5 This waiver provision applies to:
Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
(other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
purchases of $200,000 or more.
Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the
purchases are made:
1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser
that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those
purchases, or
2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified
Retirement Plan if the administrator of that Plan has made
special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
following record-keeping arrangements:
1) The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner &
Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the
Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
must have $3 million or more of its assets invested in (a) mutual
funds, other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch
Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available
under a Service Agreement between Merrill Lynch and the mutual
fund's principal underwriter or distributor, and (b) funds
advised or managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b)
are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a
daily valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are
provided under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement
Plan and Merrill Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
record keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
must have $3 million or more of its assets (excluding assets
invested in money market funds) invested in Applicable
Investments.
3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a
service agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date the plan
sponsor signs that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible
employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion
manager).

section) may sell Class M shares at net asset value without any initial sales

purchase those shares at net asset value without sales charge:
the Manager and its affiliates,
present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and
their "immediate families" as defined in the Fund's Statement of
Additional Information) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates,
and retirement plans established by them or the prior investment
advisor of the Fund for their employees,
registered management investment companies or separate accounts of
insurance companies that had an agreement with the Fund's prior
investment advisor or distributor for that purpose,
dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
they purchase shares for their own accounts or for retirement plans

employees and registered representatives (and their spouses) of dealers
or brokers described in the preceding section or financial
institutions that have entered into sales arrangements with those

into an agreement with the Distributor or the prior distributor of
the Fund specifically providing for the use of Class M shares of the

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

1 Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.
2 In the case of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund, a
continuously-offered closed-end fund, references to contingent deferred sales
charges mean the Fund's Early Withdrawal Charges and references to
"redemptions" mean "repurchases" of shares.
3 An "employee benefit plan" means any plan or arrangement, whether or not it
is "qualified" under the Internal Revenue Code, under which Class N shares of
an Oppenheimer fund or funds are purchased by a fiduciary or other
administrator for the account of participants who are employees of a single
employer or of affiliated employers. These may include, for example, medical
savings accounts, payroll deduction plans or similar plans. The fund accounts
must be registered in the name of the fiduciary or administrator purchasing
the shares for the benefit of participants in the plan.
4 The term "Group Retirement Plan" means any qualified or non-qualified
retirement plan for employees of a corporation or sole proprietorship,
members and employees of a partnership or association or other organized
group of persons (the members of which may include other groups), if the
group has made special arrangements with the Distributor and all members of
the group participating in (or who are eligible to participate in) the plan
purchase shares of an Oppenheimer fund or funds through a single investment
dealer, broker or other financial institution designated by the group. Such
plans include 457 plans, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs, SIMPLE plans and 403(b) plans
other than plans for public school employees. The term "Group Retirement
Plan" also includes qualified retirement plans and non-qualified deferred
compensation plans and IRAs that purchase shares of an Oppenheimer fund or
funds through a single investment dealer, broker or other financial
institution that has made special arrangements with the Distributor.
5 However, that concession will not be paid on purchases of shares in amounts
of $1 million or more (including any right of accumulation) by a Retirement
Plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class C
shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds held by the Plan for more than one
year.
6 This provision does not apply to IRAs.

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

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

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

None.

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

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

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

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

(a) OppenheimerFunds, Inc. is the investment adviser of the Registrant; it
and certain subsidiaries and affiliates act in the same capacity to other
investment companies, including without limitation those described in Parts A
and B hereof and listed in Item 26(b) below.

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