ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

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

      The Fund does not make investments with the objective of seeking capital
growth.  However, the values of the securities held by the Fund may be affected
by changes in general interest rates and other factors prior to their
maturity.  Because the current value of debt securities vary inversely with
changes in prevailing interest rates, if interest rates increased after a
security is purchased, that security will normally decline in value.
Conversely, should interest rates decrease after a security is purchased,
normally its value will rise.

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

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

Municipal Securities.  The types of municipal securities in which the Fund may
invest are described in the Prospectus under "About the Fund's Investments."
As a fundamental policy, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in
municipal securities. In addition, as a fundamental policy, the Fund invests at
least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in New
Jersey municipal securities. This includes securities that generate income
subject to the alternative minimum tax. The Manager has interpreted the Fund's
policy regarding investment in municipal securities to require the Fund to
invest at least 80% of the Fund's net assets in municipal securities. Municipal
securities are generally classified as general obligation bonds, revenue bonds
and notes.  A discussion of the general characteristics of these principal
types of municipal securities follows below.

      |X| Municipal Bonds.  The Fund has classified municipal securities having
a maturity (when the security is issued) of more than one (1) year as
"municipal bonds."  The principal classifications of long-term municipal bonds
are "general obligation" and "revenue" (including "private activity") bonds.
They may have fixed, variable or floating rates of interest, as described below.

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

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

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

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

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

                  |_| Private Activity Bonds. Interest on certain Qualified
Private Activity Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes if certain tests are met. They are issued by or on behalf of public
authorities to raise money to finance various privately operated facilities for
business and manufacturing, housing, sports, and pollution control.  These
bonds may also be used to finance public facilities such as airports, mass
transit systems, ports, and parking.  The payment of the principal and interest
on such bonds is dependent solely on the ability of the facility's user to meet
its financial obligations and the pledge, if any, of real and personal property
financed by the bond as security for those payments.

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

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

      Interest on certain private activity bonds issued after August 7, 1986,
which continues to be tax-exempt, will be treated as a tax preference item
subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (discussed below) to which
certain taxpayers are subject. The Fund may hold municipal securities the
interest on which (and thus a proportionate share of the exempt-interest
dividends paid by the Fund) will be subject to the Federal alternative minimum
tax on individuals and corporations. There are no limits on the amount of
assets the Fund may invest in private activity bonds.

      The Federal alternative minimum tax is designed to ensure that all
persons who receive income pay some tax, even if their regular tax is zero.
This is accomplished in part by including in taxable income certain tax
preference items that are used to calculate alternative minimum taxable
income.  The Tax Reform Act made tax-exempt interest from certain private
activity bonds a tax preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum
tax on individuals and corporations.  Any exempt-interest dividend paid by a
regulated investment company will be treated as interest on a specific private
activity bond to the extent of the proportionate relationship the interest the
investment company receives on such bonds bears to all its exempt interest
dividends.

      In addition, corporate taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax
may, under some circumstances, have to include exempt-interest dividends in
calculating their alternative minimum taxable income. That could occur in
situations where the "adjusted current earnings" of the corporation exceeds its
alternative minimum taxable income.

      To determine whether a private activity bond is treated as a taxable
private activity bond, it is subject to a test for: (a) a trade or business use
and security interest, or (b) a private loan restriction. Under the trade or
business use and security interest test, an obligation is a private activity
bond if: (i) more than 10% of the bond proceeds are used for private business
purposes and (ii) 10% or more of the payment of principal or interest on the
issue is directly or indirectly derived from such private use or is secured by
the privately used property or the payments related to the use of the
property.  For certain types of uses, a 5% threshold is substituted for this
10% threshold.

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

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

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

      |X| Municipal Notes.  Municipal securities having a maturity (when the
security is issued) of less than one (1) year are generally known as municipal
notes. Municipal notes generally are used to provide for short-term working
capital needs.  Some of the types of municipal notes the Fund can invest in are
described below.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      |_| the frequency of trades and price quotations for such securities;
      |_| the number of dealers or other potential buyers willing to purchase
      or sell such securities;
      |_| the availability of market-makers; and
      |_| the nature of the trades for such securities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Special Risks of Investing Primarily in New Jersey Municipal Securities.
Because the Fund focuses its investments primarily on New Jersey municipal
securities, the value of its portfolio investments will be highly sensitive to
events affecting the fiscal stability of the State of New Jersey and its
municipalities, authorities and other instrumentalities that issue securities
in which the Fund invests, including political developments, economic problems
and legislation as well as adverse events affecting borrower entities and
credit enhancement providers.

      It is not possible to predict the future impact of political
developments, economic, regulatory or tax problems and legislation on the
long-term ability of the State of New Jersey or New Jersey municipal issuers,
borrower entities or credit enhancement providers to pay interest or repay
principal on their obligations.  The information below is only a brief summary
of general information regarding the state and the types of obligations issued
by it and its political subdivisions, based upon information the Fund has drawn
from sources that it believes are reliable, including official statements
relating to securities offerings of New Jersey issuers.  The information below
is general in nature and does not provide information about the financial
condition of the state or specific issuers in whose securities the Fund may
invest, or the risks of those specific investments. The information provided
below is subject to change without notice, and the inclusion of such
information herein shall not under any circumstances create any implication
that there has been no change in the affairs of the State since the date hereof.

      |X| General Information Regarding the State. New Jersey is the ninth
largest state in population and fifth smallest in land area. According to the
United States Bureau of the Census and the Department of Labor, the population
of New Jersey was 7.17 million in 1970, 7.37 million in 1980, 7.73 million in
1990 and 8.4 million in 2000. With an average of 1,134 persons per square mile,
it is the most densely populated of all the states. New Jersey is located at
the center of the megalopolis which extends from Boston to Washington and
includes over one-fifth of the country's population. Historically, New Jersey's
average per capita income has been well above the national average, and in 2000
the State ranked third among the states in per capita personal income ($36,983).

      The extensive facilities of the Port Authority of New York and New
Jersey, the Delaware River Port Authority and the South Jersey Port Corporation
across the Delaware River from Philadelphia augment the air, land and water
transportation facilities that have influenced the development of the state's
economy. The state's central position in the northeast corridor, its
transportation and port facilities and proximity to New York City make New
Jersey an attractive location for corporate headquarters and international
business offices. A number of major companies have their headquarters or major
facilities in New Jersey. Many foreign-owned firms have located facilities in
the state.

      The State's economic base is diversified, consisting of a variety of
manufacturing, construction and service industries, supplemented by rural areas
with selective commercial agriculture. New Jersey has the Atlantic seashore on
the east and the lakes and mountains on the north and northwest, which provide
recreation for residents as well as for out-of-state visitors. Since 1976,
casino gambling in Atlantic City has been an important State tourist
attraction.

      The State finances capital projects primarily through the sale of general
obligation bonds of the state. Those bonds are backed by the full faith and
credit of the state. State tax revenues and certain other fees are pledged to
meet the principal and interest payments required to pay those debts fully. No
general obligations can be issued by the state without prior voter approval.
The exception is that no prior voter approval is required for any law
authorizing the creation of a debt for the purpose of refinancing all or a
portion of outstanding state debt, as long as the law requires that the
refinancing measure provide a debt service savings. All appropriations for
capital projects and all proposals for state bond authorization are subject to
the review and recommendation of the New Jersey Commission on Capital Budgeting
and Planning.

      The State may also enter into lease finance arrangements. Through those,
lease payments made by the state must be sufficient to cover debt service on
the obligations issued to finance the project. Those rental payments are
subject to annual appropriation by the state legislature. Also, various state
entities have issued obligations for which the state has a "moral obligation"
to appropriate funds to cover a deficiency in a debt service reserve fund
maintained to meet payments of principal of and interest on the obligations.
The state legislature is not bound to make such appropriations, however.

      The State has extensive control over school districts, city and county
governments, and local financing authorities. The local finance system is
regulated by various statutes to assure that those entities remain on a sound
financial footing. State laws impose specific limitations on appropriations,
with exemptions subject to state approval. The State shares the proceeds of a
number of taxes. Those funds are earmarked primarily for local education
programs, homestead rebates, and Medicaid and welfare programs. Certain bonds
are issued by localities but supported by direct state payments. In addition,
the state participates in local waste water treatment programs.

      Counties, municipalities and school districts finance capital projects
through the sale of general obligation bonds backed by their respective taxing
power. Other entities, such as local financing authorities, typically finance
their capital needs through the sale of bonds backed by a particular pledge of
revenues, which may or may not include revenues derived from taxing powers.

The State has indicated it is recording strong, sustained growth from an
improving economy. During 2003, New Jersey's job growth outpaced that of all
surrounding states and the nation as a whole. More than 37,000 jobs were
created in New Jersey between December 2002 and December 2003. New Jersey's job
growth during this period was the sixth highest in the country.
State Finances
The State operates on a fiscal year beginning July 1 and ending June 30. The
estimates for fiscal year 2004 and fiscal year 2005 reflect the amounts
contained in the Governor's fiscal year 2004 Budget Message delivered on
February 24, 2004.
The General Fund is the fund into which all State revenues not otherwise
restricted by statute are deposited and from which appropriations are made. The
largest part of the total financial operations of the State are accounted for
in the General Fund. Revenues received from taxes, most Federal revenue and
certain miscellaneous revenue items are recorded in the General Fund. General
Fund and other undesignated fund balances are available for appropriation in
succeeding fiscal years.
General Fund beginning balances for fiscal years 2004 and 2005 are projected to
be $373.0 million and $400.0 million, respectively. Total undesignated fund
balances for fiscal years 2003 and 2004 are projected to be $378.0 million and
$402.2 million, respectively.
The State's four major categories of appropriations are State Operations,
Grants-in Aid, State Aid and Debt Service.
State Operations consists of programs and services operated directly by the
State government. The largest single component is for the salary and benefits
of State employees. The net increase in State Operations expenditures for
fiscal year 2005 is projected at $307.3 million.
Grants-in-Aid appropriations are for programs and services provided to the
public on behalf of the State by a third party provider, or grants made
directly to individuals based on assorted program eligibility criteria. The
Medicaid program, the Tuition Assistance Grant Program, Homestead Rebates,
payments for State inmates housed in county jails, public transportation aid
and funding for State Colleges and Universities fall into this category. The
net increase in Grants-in-Aid expenditures for fiscal year 2005 is projected at
$906.5 million.
State Aid consists of payments to or on behalf of counties, municipalities, and
school districts to assist them in carrying out their local responsibilities.
In addition to school aid, this category of expenditure includes the
Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief program, the Municipal Block Grant
program and other forms of municipal aid. It also includes funding for county
colleges, local public assistance and county psychiatric hospital costs. The
net increase in State Aid expenditures for fiscal year 2005 is projected at
$506.8 million.
Debt Service payments represent the interest and principal on capital projects
funded through the sale of general obligation bonds. The net increase in Debt
Service for fiscal year 2005 is projected at $2.0 million.
Fiscal Year 2004 State Revenue Estimates
The current total fiscal year 2004 revenue estimate of $24.4 billion is $383.9
million more than revenues certified by the Governor in June 2003.
The State's three largest taxes in terms of receipts--sales and use tax, gross
income tax, and corporation business tax--account for over 64% of total State
revenues and are forecast to yield $15.7 billion. This is an increase of $372
million over June 2003 certified revenues, reflecting upward revisions in the
gross income tax (+$110 million), sales and use tax (+$70 million) and
corporate business tax (+$192 million) estimates, due to the economic recovery
that started in mid-2003.
Sales and use tax receipts are estimated at $6.2 billion in fiscal year 2004, a
5% rate of growth. The estimate takes into consideration positive reports of
2003 holiday sales and generally robust retail sales of durable goods that were
boosted due to attractive financing packages and the low interest environment.
Additionally, consumer confidence improved in 2003, increasing close to 13
points between January and December of 2003.
The gross income tax forecast for fiscal year 2004 is $7.2 billion, an increase
of $110 million compared to the June 2003 certified revenue estimate. This
represents an increase in growth of 7.5% rather than the 5.9% growth
anticipated in June 2003. Employer withholdings grew by 5% in calendar year
2003, stronger than the growth of 1.5% in 2002. This was supported by better
than expected trends in estimated payments which appear to have stabilized
(-0.7%) after falling steeply at double-digit negative growth rates in the past
two years. The solid gain in the stock market last year was a major factor
contributing to revenue growth, particularly under the gross income tax. New
Jersey's improving income tax collections are also consistent with numerous
other economic indicators and trends, including a net gain of 37,100 jobs
during calendar year 2003, a state unemployment rate that has been consistently
below the national rate over the same period of time, and a second consecutive
record year for new business filings in New Jersey.
The corporation business tax (CBT) was previously estimated at $2.1 billion for
fiscal year 2004, reflecting a decrease of $414 million from the final fiscal
year 2003 receipts. This decline was due to the loss of revenue items that were
only available for fiscal year 2003. These items included the acceleration of
the September 2003 estimated payments to June 2003 and the 6 month benefit of
the retroactive effective date of January 1, 2002. The CBT is revised upward by
$192 million to $2.2 billion for fiscal year 2004. The revised estimate
represents a decrease of $222 million compared to the $414 million that was
previously anticipated. The revised estimate is in line with increasing
corporate profits and the recovering economy in 2004. The CBT estimates assume
decoupling from the enhanced federal expensing law (IRS code section 179).
Fiscal Year 2005 State Revenue Estimates
Total revenues for fiscal year 2005 are expected to be $26.3 billion,
approximately $1.9 billion (7.7%) above the revised fiscal year 2004
anticipation, and include new revenue actions of $2.6 billion.
In fiscal year 2005, sales and use, sales and use, and corporation business
taxes account for 64% of total revenues and are expected to yield $16.8 billion.
The fiscal year 2005 sales and use tax revenues forecast of $6.6 billion is an
increase of $340 million, or 5.5%, compared to the revised fiscal year 2004
revenues. This reflects an expectation of continued improvement in the
underlying economic fundamentals during fiscal year 2005. The favorable
low-interest and low-inflationary environment along with improving labor market
conditions are expected to support growing consumer confidence and spending in
2004.
The fiscal year 2005 gross income tax forecast of $7.8 billion is an increase
of $603 million, or 8.3%, over fiscal year 2004. This is a reflection of the
economic turnaround that started in 2003. New Jersey total income, which is the
tax base, is expected to increase by 2.8% in 2003 after two straight years of
negative income growth. In 2004 and 2005, the tax base is projected to grow at
5.1% and 5.3%, respectively. The amount of income on tax returns reporting over
$100,000 in total income is expected to rebound at an 8.9% average annual rate
(2004-2005) after declining at -2% average annual rate during the 2001- 2003
recession. Although this pace of growth appears impressive, it remains well
below the record double-digit average annual growth rate of 18% experienced
from 1995 to 2000.
The fiscal year 2005 CBT revenue forecast of $2.4 billion represents an
increase of $145 million (or 6.5%), compared with fiscal year 2004. This upward
revision assumes an underlying base growth of 5% in gross payments and refund
growth of 15.1% in fiscal year 2005. It also includes the continuation of the
net operating loss suspension estimated at $275 million.
General Considerations
Estimated receipts from State taxes and revenues, including the three principal
taxes set forth above, are forecasts based on the best information available at
the time of such forecasts. Changes in economic activity in the State and the
nation, consumption of durable goods, corporate financial performance and other
factors that are difficult to predict may result in actual collections being
more or less than forecasted.
Should revenues be less than the amount anticipated in the budget for a fiscal
year, the Governor may, pursuant to statutory authority, prevent any
expenditure under any appropriation. There are additional means by which the
Governor may ensure that the State is operated efficiently and does not incur a
deficit. No supplemental appropriation may be enacted after adoption of an
appropriations act except where there are sufficient revenues on hand or
anticipated, as certified by the Governor, to meet such appropriation. In the
past when actual revenues have been less than the amount anticipated in the
budget, the Governor has exercised his plenary powers leading to, among other
actions, implementation of a hiring freeze for all State departments and the
discontinuation of programs for which appropriations were budgeted but not yet
spent. Under the State Constitution, no general appropriations law or other law
appropriating money for any State purpose may be enacted if the amount of money
appropriated therein, together with all other prior appropriations made for the
same fiscal year, exceeds the total amount of revenue on hand and anticipated
to be available for such fiscal year, as certified by the Governor.

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 them.

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

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

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

      The interest rate on a floating rate demand note is based on a stated
prevailing market rate, such as a bank's prime rate, the ninety-one (91) day
U.S. Treasury Bill rate, or some other standard, and is adjusted automatically
each time such rate is adjusted.  The interest rate on a variable rate demand
note is also based on a stated prevailing market rate but is adjusted
automatically at specified intervals of no less than one (1) year.  Generally,
the changes in the interest rate on such securities reduce the fluctuation in
their market value.  As interest rates decrease or increase, the potential for
capital appreciation or depreciation is less than that for fixed-rate
obligations of the same maturity.

      The Manager may determine that an unrated floating rate or variable rate
demand obligation meets the Fund's quality standards by reason of being backed
by a letter of credit or guarantee issued by a bank that meets those quality
standards.

      Floating rate and variable rate demand notes that have a stated maturity
in excess of one (1) year may have features that permit the holder to recover
the principal amount of the underlying security at specified intervals not
exceeding one (1) year and upon not more than thirty (30) days' notice.  The
issuer of that type of note normally has a corresponding right in its
discretion, after a given period, to prepay the outstanding principal amount of
the note plus accrued interest.  Generally the issuer must provide a specified
number of days' notice to the holder.  Floating rate or variable rate
obligations that do not provide for the recovery of principal and interest
within seven (7) days are subject to the Fund's limitations on investments in
illiquid securities.

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

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

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

      |X| Other Derivatives. The Fund can invest in other municipal derivative
securities that pay interest that depends on the change in value of an
underlying asset, interest rate or index.  Examples are interest rate swaps,
municipal bond indices or swap indices.

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

      When such transactions are negotiated the price (which is generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made.
Delivery and payment for the securities take place at a later date.  Normally
the settlement date is within six (6) months of the purchase of municipal bonds
and notes.  However, the Fund may, from time to time, purchase municipal
securities having a settlement date more than six (6) months and possibly as
long as two (2) years or more after the trade date.  The securities are subject
to change in value from market fluctuation during the settlement period.  The
value at delivery may be less than the purchase price.  For example, changes in
interest rates in a direction other than that expected by the Manager before
settlement will affect the value of such securities and may cause loss to the
Fund.  No income begins to accrue to the Fund on a when-issued security until
the Fund receives the security at settlement of the trade.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      The majority of these transactions run from day to day. Delivery pursuant
to resale typically will occur within one (1) to five (5) days of the
purchase.  Repurchase agreements having a maturity beyond seven (7) days are
subject to the Fund's limits on holding illiquid investments. There is no limit
on the amount of the Fund's net assets that may be subject to repurchase
agreements of seven (7) days or less.

      Repurchase agreements considered "loans" under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 ("Investment Company Act"), are collateralized by the underlying
security.  The Fund's repurchase agreements require that at all times while the
repurchase agreement is in effect, the collateral's value must equal or exceed
the repurchase price to fully collateralize the repayment obligation.

      The Manager will monitor the vendor's creditworthiness to confirm that
the vendor is financially sound and will continuously monitor the collateral's
value.  However, if the vendor fails to pay the resale price on the delivery
date, the Fund may incur costs in disposing of the collateral and may
experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to do so.

      Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the 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| 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 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.

      |X| Illiquid and Restricted Securities.  The Fund has percentage
limitations that apply to purchases of illiquid and restricted securities, as
stated in the Prospectus. The Manager monitors holdings of illiquid and
restricted securities on an ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any
holdings to maintain adequate liquidity.

      |X|  Borrowing for Leverage.  The Fund has the ability to invest borrowed
funds in portfolio securities.  This speculative investment technique is known
as "leverage."  Under its fundamental investment policies, the Fund may not
borrow money, except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act,
the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is
applicable to the Fund, as such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or
interpreted from time to time.  Currently, under the Investment Company Act, a
mutual fund may borrow only from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow is
up to one-third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed) less all
liabilities and indebtedness other than borrowing. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, the Fund may also borrow up to 5% of its total assets for
temporary purposes from any person.  Under the Investment Company Act, there is
a rebuttable presumption that a loan is temporary if it is repaid within 60
days and not extended or renewed.  If the value of the Fund's assets fails to
meet the 300% asset coverage (i.e., up to one-third of its total assets)
requirement, the Fund is required to reduce its bank debt within three (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.

      In addition, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC to Citicorp
North America, Inc. ("Citicorp"), the Fund also has the ability to borrow,
subject to the limits established by its investment policies, from commercial
paper and medium-term note conduits administered by Citicorp that issue
promissory notes to fund loans to investment companies such as the Fund. These
loans may be secured by assets of the Fund, so long as the Fund's policies
permit it to pledge its assets to secure a debt. Liquidity support for these
loans will be provided by banks obligated to make loans to the Fund in the
event the conduit or conduits are unable or unwilling to make such loans. The
Fund will have the right to prepay such loans and terminate its participation
in the conduit loan facility at any time upon prior notice. As a borrower under
a conduit loan facility, the Fund maintains rights and remedies under state and
federal law comparable to those it would maintain with respect to a loan from a
bank.

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

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

      When it lends securities, the Fund receives amounts equal to the
dividends or interest on the loaned securities.  It also receives one or more
of (a) negotiated loan fees, (b) interest on securities used as collateral, and
(c) interest on short-term debt securities purchased with the loan collateral.
Either type of interest may be shared with the borrower.  The Fund may pay
reasonable finder's, custodian and administrative or other fees in connection
with these loans.  The terms of the Fund's loans must meet applicable tests
under the Internal Revenue Code and must permit the Fund to reacquire loaned
securities on five (5) days' notice or in time to vote on any important matter.

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

      |_| sell interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures,
      |_| buy puts on such futures or securities, or
      |_| write covered calls on securities, broadly-based municipal bond
      indices, interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures.

      The Fund can also write covered calls on debt securities to attempt to
increase the Fund's income, but that income would not be tax-exempt.  Therefore
it is unlikely that the Fund would write covered calls for that purpose.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(1)   After the Fund writes a call, not more than 25% of the Fund's total
         assets may be subject to calls.
(2)   Calls the Fund sells must be listed on a securities or commodities
         exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, the automated quotation system of The
         Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. or traded in the over-the-counter market.
(3)   Each call the Fund writes must be "covered" while it is outstanding. That
         means the Fund must own the investment on which the call was written.

      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 (9) 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.

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

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

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

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

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

      |_| Writing Put Options. The Fund can sell put options on debt
securities, broadly-based securities indices, futures, or foreign currency
options. A put option on securities gives the purchaser the right to sell, and
the writer the obligation to buy, the underlying investment at the exercise
price during the option period. A put written on debt securities must be
covered by segregated liquid assets and the Fund cannot write puts if, as a
result, more than 50% of the Fund's net assets would be required to be
segregated to cover such put options.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     The ordinary spreads between prices in the cash and futures markets are
subject to distortions due to differences in the natures of those markets. All
participants in the futures markets are subject to margin deposit and
maintenance requirements. Rather than meeting additional margin deposit
requirements, investors may close out futures contracts through offsetting
transactions which could distort the normal relationship between the cash and
futures markets. From the point of view of speculators, the deposit
requirements in the futures markets are less onerous than margin requirements
in the securities markets. Therefore, increased participation by speculators in
the futures markets may cause temporary price distortions.

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

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

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

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

     The Fund can enter into swap transactions with appropriate counterparties
pursuant to master netting agreements.  A master netting agreement provides
that all swaps done between the Fund and that counterparty under the master
agreement shall be regarded as parts of an integral agreement. If on any date
amounts are payable under one or more swap transactions, the net amount payable
on that date shall be paid. In addition, the master netting agreement may
provide that if one party defaults generally or on one swap, the counterparty
can terminate the swaps with that party. Under master netting agreements, if
there is a default resulting in a loss to one party, that party's damages are
calculated by reference to the average cost of a replacement swap with respect
to each swap.  The gains and losses on all swaps are then netted, and the
result is the counterparty's gain or loss on termination. The termination of
all swaps and the netting of gains and losses on termination is generally
referred to as "aggregation."

      |_| 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. Consequently registered investment companies may engage in unlimited
futures transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund claims an
exclusion from regulation as a commodity pool operator. The Fund has claimed
such an exclusion from registration as a commodity pool operator under the
Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Fund may use futures and options for
hedging and non-hedging purposes to the extent consistent with its investment
objective, internal risk management guidelines adopted by the Fund's investment
advisor (as they may be amended from time to time), and as otherwise set forth
in the Fund's prospectus or this statement of additional information.

      Transactions in options by the Fund are subject to limitations
established by the option exchanges.  The exchanges limit the maximum number of
options that may be written or held by a single investor or group of investors
acting in concert.  Those limits apply regardless of whether the options were
written or purchased on the same or different exchanges, or are held in one or
more accounts or through one or more different exchanges or through one or more
brokers.  Thus, the number of options that the Fund may write or hold may be
affected by options written or held by other entities, including other
investment companies having the same adviser as the Fund (or an adviser that is
an affiliate of the Fund's adviser).  The exchanges also impose position limits
on futures transactions.  An exchange may order the liquidation of positions
found to be in violation of those limits and may impose certain other
sanctions.

      Under interpretations of staff members of the Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act, when
the Fund purchases an interest rate future or municipal bond index future, it
must segregate cash or readily marketable short-term debt instruments in an
amount equal to the purchase price of the future, less the margin deposit
applicable to it. The account must be a segregated account or accounts held by
its custodian bank.

      |X| Temporary Defensive Investments. The securities the Fund can invest
in for temporary defensive purposes include the following:

            |_|  short-term municipal securities;
            |_| obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its
               agencies or instrumentalities;
            |_| corporate debt securities rated within the three highest grades
               by a nationally recognized rating agency;
             |_| commercial paper rated "A-1" by S&P, or a comparable rating by
               another nationally recognized rating agency; and
             |_| certificates of deposit of domestic banks with assets of $1
          billion or more.

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

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:

      |_| 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at a
      shareholder meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding
      shares are present or represented by proxy, or
      |_| more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

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

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

      |_| The Fund cannot invest 25% or more of its total assets in any one
industry.  That limit does not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities or securities issued by
investment companies. Nor does that limit apply to municipal securities in
general, or to New Jersey municipal securities.

      |_| The Fund cannot invest in real estate, physical commodities or
commodity contracts, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, the
rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom, as such statute,
rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time.

      |_|  The Fund cannot underwrite securities of other companies.  A
permitted exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the
Securities Act of 1933 when reselling any securities held in its own portfolio.

      |_| The Fund cannot make loans, except to the extent permitted under the
1940 Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that
is applicable to the Fund, as such statute, rules or regulations may be amended
or interpreted from time to time.

      |_| The Fund may not borrow money, except to the extent permitted under
the 1940 Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom
that is applicable to the Fund, as such statute, rules or regulations may be
amended or interpreted from time to time.

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

|_|   The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal securities.

|_|   The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for
         investment purposes) in New Jersey municipal securities. This includes
         securities that generate income subject to the alternative minimum
         tax.

      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.

      The Fund cannot invest in other investment companies except to the extent
permitted by the Act. The Fund would be permitted under this policy to invest
its assets in the securities of one or more open-end management investment
company for which the Manager, one of its affiliates or a successor is the
investment advisor or sub-advisor. That fund or funds must have substantially
the same fundamental investment objective, policies and limitations as the
Fund. The Fund's policy not to concentrate its investments, as described above,
also would permit the Fund to adopt a "master-feeder" structure. Under that
structure, the Fund would be a "feeder" fund and would invest all of its assets
in a single pooled "master fund" in which other feeder funds could also invest.
This could enable the Fund to take advantage of potential operational and cost
efficiencies in the master-feeder structure. The Fund has no present intention
of adopting the master-feeder structure. If it did so, the Prospectus and this
Statement of Additional Information would be revised accordingly.

      |X| Does the Fund Have Other Restrictions that are Not Fundamental
Policies?

      The Fund has several additional restrictions on its investment policies
that are not fundamental, which means that they can be changed by the Board of
Trustees, without obtaining shareholder approval.

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

      |_| The Fund cannot purchase securities other than hedging instruments on
margin. However, the Fund may obtain short-term credits that may be necessary
for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities.

      |_| The Fund cannot sell securities short.

      |_| The Fund can pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer or
assign its assets to secure borrowings by or indebtedness of the Fund. In
addition, the use of escrow or other collateral arrangements in connection with
borrowings and hedging instruments is permitted.

      |_| The Fund cannot buy or sell futures contracts other than interest
rate futures and municipal bond index futures.

      |_| The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets in
securities which are restricted as to disposition under the federal securities
laws, except that the Fund may purchase without regard to this limitation
restricted securities which are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under
the Securities Act of 1933.

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

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

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

      The identification of the issuer of a municipal security depends on the
terms and conditions of the security.  When the assets and revenues of an
agency, authority, instrumentality or other political subdivision are separate
from those of the government creating it and the security is backed only by the
assets and revenues of the subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality,
the latter would be deemed to be the sole issuer.  Similarly, if an industrial
development bond is backed only by the assets and revenues of the
non-governmental user, then that user would be deemed to be the sole issuer.
However, if in either case the creating government or some other entity
guarantees a security, the guarantee would be considered a separate security
and would be treated as an issue of such government or other entity.

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

      In implementing the Fund's policy not to concentrate its investments, the
Manager will consider a non-governmental user of facilities financed by
industrial development bonds as being in a particular industry.  That is done
even though the bonds are municipal securities, as to which the Fund has no
concentration limitation.  Although this application of the concentration
restriction is not a fundamental policy of the Fund, it will not be changed
without shareholder approval. The Manager has no present intention of investing
25% or more of the Fund's total assets in securities paying interest from
revenues of similar type projects or in industrial development bonds. This is
not a fundamental policy and therefore could be changed without shareholder
approval. However, if that change were made, the Prospectus or this Statement
of Additional Information would be supplemented to reflect the change.

How the Fund Is Managed

Organization and History.  The Fund is a series of a Massachusetts business
trust that was originally organized in 1989, as a trust having one series.  In
1993 it was reorganized to be a multi-series business trust (now called
Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust).  The Fund was added as a separate
series of that Trust in 1994. The Fund is an open-end, non-diversified
management investment company with an unlimited number of authorized shares of
beneficial interest. Each of the three (3) series of the Trust is a separate
fund that issues its own shares, has its own investment portfolio, and has its
own assets and liabilities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      The members of the Governance Committee are Phillip Griffiths (Chairman),
Kenneth Randall and Russell S. Reynolds, Jr..  The Governance Committee held no
meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2003.  The Governance
Committee reviews the Fund's governance guidelines, the adequacy of the Fund's
Codes of Ethics, and develops qualification criteria for Board members
consistent with the Fund's governance guidelines, among other duties set forth
in the Committee's charter.

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

Trustees and Officers of the Fund. Each of the Trustees is an "Independent
Trustee" under the Investment Company Act. The Fund's Trustees and officers,
their positions with the Fund, length of service in such position(s) and
principal occupations and business affiliations during the past five years are
listed in the chart below. The information for each Trustee also includes the
dollar range of shares beneficially owned in the Fund and 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 each of the
following publicly offered Oppenheimer funds (referred to as "Board I Funds").

Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals           Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund
Oppenheimer AMT-Free New York Municipals  Oppenheimer Growth Fund
Oppenheimer Balanced Fund                 Oppenheimer International Growth Fund
                                          Oppenheimer  International  Small Company
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund     Fund
Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund     Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund     Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income Trust
Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund       Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund   Oppenheimer New Jersey Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Discovery Fund                Oppenheimer Pennsylvania Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Emerging Growth Fund          Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals
Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund    Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund               Oppenheimer U.S. Government Trust
Oppenheimer Global Fund                   Oppenheimer Value Fund
Oppenheimer Global Opportunities Fund

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

      Messrs. Fielding, Murphy, Petersen, Vandehey, Vottiero, Wixted, and Zack,
and Mses. Bloomberg and Ives respectively hold the same offices with one or
more of the other Board I Funds as with the Fund.  As of August 31, 2004, the
Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group, owned of record or beneficially
less than 1% of each class of shares of the Fund.  The foregoing statement does
not reflect ownership of shares of the Fund held of record by an employee
benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares beneficially
owned under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above.  In addition,
each Independent Trustee, and his or her family members, do not own securities
of either the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or any person
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with
the Manager or Distributor.

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

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

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

$88,229,  respectively,  of total  compensation from all of the Oppenheimer funds
for which they served as trustees.
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

   for Trustees."
3.    Includes  $190  deferred by Mr.  Yeutter  under the  Deferred  Compensation

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

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

      Deferral of Trustees' fees under the plan will not materially affect the
Fund's assets, liabilities or net income per share. The plan will not obligate
the Fund to retain the services of any Trustee or to pay any particular level
of compensation to any Trustee. Pursuant to an Order issued by the Securities
and Exchange Commission, 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| Portfolio  Proxy Voting.  The Fund has adopted  Portfolio  Proxy Voting
Policies  and  Procedures   under  which  the  Fund  votes  proxies  relating  to
securities  held  by  the  Fund   ("portfolio   proxies").   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 the 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 support proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.
o     The Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options.
o     The Fund  generally  considers  executive  compensation  questions  such as
         stock  option  plans and bonus plans to be ordinary  business  activity.
         The Fund analyzes  stock option plans,  paying  particular  attention to
         their  dilutive  effect.  While the Fund generally  supports  management
         proposals, the Fund opposes plans it considers to be excessive

         The Fund is required to file new Form N-PX, with its complete proxy
voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later than August 31st of
each year.  The Fund's Form N-PX filing is available (i) without charge, upon
request, by calling the Fund toll-free at  1.800.525-7048 and (ii) on the SEC's
website at www.sec.gov.
           -----------

      |X|  The Investment Advisory Agreement.  The Manager provides investment
advisory and management services to the Fund under an investment advisory
agreement between the Manager and the Fund.  The Manager selects securities for
the Fund's portfolio and handles its day-to day business. The portfolio
management team of the Fund is employed by the Manager and is principally
responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's investment portfolio.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

      The Fund seeks to obtain prompt execution of orders at the most favorable
net prices.  In an option transaction, the Fund ordinarily uses the same broker
for the purchase or sale of the option and any transaction in the investment to
which the option relates.  Other funds advised by the Manager have investment
objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund.  Those other funds may
purchase or sell the same securities as the Fund at the same time as the Fund,
which could affect the supply and price of the securities.  When possible, the
Manager tries to combine concurrent orders to purchase or sell the same
security by more than one of the accounts managed by the Manager or its
affiliates.  The transactions under those combined orders are averaged as to
price and allocated in accordance with the purchase or sale orders actually
placed for each account.

      The investment advisory agreement permits the Manager to allocate
brokerage for research services.  The research services provided by a
particular broker may be useful only to one or more of the advisory accounts of
the Manager and its affiliates.  Investment research received by the Manager
for the commissions paid by those other accounts may be useful both to the Fund
and one or more of the Manager's other accounts.  Investment research services
may be supplied to the Manager by a third party at the instance of a broker
through which trades are placed. Investment research services include
information and analyses on particular companies and industries as well as
market or economic trends and portfolio strategy, market quotations for
portfolio evaluations, information systems, computer hardware and similar
products and services.  If a research service also assists the Manager in a
non-research capacity (such as bookkeeping or other administrative functions),
then only the percentage or component that provides assistance to the Manager
in the investment decision-making process may be paid in commission dollars.

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

In the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, there were no
transactions directed to brokers for research services, and the amount of the
commissions paid to broker-dealers for those services was $0. As explained
above, in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively,
the Fund did not pay any brokerage commissions.


Distribution and Service Plans

The Distributor.  Under its General Distributor's Agreement with the Fund, the
Distributor, whose primary address is P.O. Box 5270, Denver, CO  80217, acts as
the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the
different 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 its
Class A shares and Distribution and Service Plans for its Class B and Class C
shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act.  Under those plans, the
Fund makes payments to the Distributor 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 of the Fund, including a majority
of the Independent Trustees,1 cast in person at a meeting called for the
purpose of voting on that plan.

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

      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 amendment to the Class A plan that would materially increase payments
under the plan.  That approval must be by a majority of the shares of each
class, voting separately by class.

      While the plans are in effect, the Treasurer of the Fund shall provide
separate written reports on the plans to the Fund's 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 or replacement
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
provision 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 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 Fund's Independent
Trustees.  The Board of Trustees has set the fees at the maximum rate allowed
under the plans and has set no minimum asset amount needed to qualify for
payments.

      |_|  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 the level. While the plan permits the Board to authorize payments to
the Distributor to reimburse itself for services under the plan, the Board has
not yet done so.  The Distributor makes payments to plan recipients quarterly
at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual net assets of Class
A shares held in accounts of the service providers or their customers.

      For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, payments under the Class A plan
totaled $113,705, all of which was paid by the Distributor to recipients and
included $2,353 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's parent company.  Any
unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares for
any fiscal year may not be recovered in subsequent years.  The Distributor may
not use payments received under the Class A plan to pay any of its interest
expenses, carrying charges, other financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

|_|   Class B and Class C Service and Distribution Plans.  Under each plan,
service fees and distribution 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.  The Class B and Class C plans provide
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 plans during that period.  The types of services that recipients provide
for the service fee are similar to the services provided under Class A plans,
described above.

      Each plan permits the Distributor to retain both the asset-based sales
charges and the service fee on shares or to pay recipients the service fee on a
quarterly basis, without payment in advance.  However, the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the first
year after Class B and Class C shares are purchased.  After the first year
shares are outstanding, after their purchase, the Distributor makes service fee
payments quarterly on those shares.  The advance payment is based on the net
asset value of shares sold.  Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for an
advance service fee payment. If Class B or Class C shares are redeemed during
the first year after their purchase, the recipient of the service fees on those
shares will be obligated to repay the Distributor a pro rata portion of the
advance payment made on those shares.

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

      The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B shares.
The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C shares during
the first year the shares are outstanding. It pays the asset-based sales charge
as an ongoing concession to the recipient on Class C shares outstanding for a
year or more. If a dealer has a special agreement with the Distributor, the
Distributor will pay the Class B and/or Class C service fees and the
asset-based sales charge to the dealer quarterly in lieu of paying the sales
concession and service fee in advance at the time of purchase.

      The asset-based sales charge on Class B and Class C shares allows
investors to buy shares without a front-end sales charge while allowing the
Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those shares.  The Fund pays the
asset-based sales charge to the Distributor for its services rendered in
distributing Class B and Class C shares. The payments are made to the
Distributor in recognition that the Distributor:
|_|   pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at the time of
      sale and pays service fees as described above,
|_|   may finance payment of sales concessions and/or the advance of the
      service fee payment to recipients under the plans, or may provide such
      financing from its own resources or from the resources of an affiliate,
|_|   employs personnel to support distribution of shares, 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,
|_|   may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B and
      Class C shares without receiving payment under the plans and therefore
      may not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent the plans,
|_|   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,
|_|   may use the payments under the plan to include the Fund in various
      third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund shares,
|_|   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
|_|   may not be able to continue providing, at the same or at a lesser cost,
      the same quality distribution sales efforts and services, or to obtain
      such services from brokers and dealers, if the plan payments were to be
      discontinued.

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

Class B or Class C shares may not be purchased by an investor directly from the
Distributor without the investor designating another broker-dealer of record.
If the investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an existing
account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the broker-dealer of
record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the investor's agent to
purchase the shares.  In those cases, the Distributor retains the asset-based
sales charge paid on Class B and Class C shares, but does not retain any
service fees as to the assets represented by that account.

Performance of the Fund

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

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

      Use of standardized performance calculations enables an investor to
compare the Fund's performance to the performance of other funds for the same
periods.  However, a number of factors should be considered before using the
Fund's performance information as a basis for comparison with other
investments:
      |_| Yields and total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical
      account in the Fund over various periods and do not show the performance
      of each shareholder's account. Your account's performance will vary from
      the model performance data if your dividends are received in cash, or you
      buy or sell shares during the period, or you bought your shares at a
      different time and price than the shares used in the model.
      |_|  The Fund's performance returns may not reflect the effect of taxes
on distributions.
      |_| An investment in the Fund is not insured by the FDIC or any other
      government agency.
      |_| The principal value of the Fund's shares, and its yields and total
      returns are not guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.
      |_| When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or
      less than their original cost.
      |_| Yields and total returns for any given past period represent
      historical performance information and are not, and should not be
      considered, a prediction of future yields or returns.

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

      |X| 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 thirty (30) day
period.  It is not based on actual distributions paid by the Fund to
shareholders in the thirty (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:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[OBJECT OMITTED]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The symbols above represent the following factors:
      a =  dividends and interest earned during the thirty (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 thirty (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 thirty (30) day period may differ
from the yield for other periods.  The SEC formula assumes that the
standardized yield for a thirty (30) day period occurs at a constant rate for a
six (6) month period and is annualized at the end of the six (6) 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 thirty (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 twelve (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 during monthly period x 12/maximum
offering
                                         price (payment date)



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

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

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

      The tax-equivalent yield may be used to compare the tax effects of income
derived from the Fund with income from taxable investments at the tax rates
stated.  Your tax bracket is determined by your Federal and state taxable
income (the net amount subject to Federal and state income tax after deductions
and exemptions).  The tax-equivalent yield table assumes that the investor is
taxed at the highest bracket, regardless of whether a switch to non-taxable
investments would cause a lower bracket to apply.

      |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 (10) 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 4.75% (as a percentage of the offering price) is deducted from
the initial investment ("P") (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% contingent deferred sales charge is
deducted for returns for the one (1) year period.

      |_| 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") to achieve an Ending Redeemable Value ("ERV"
in the formula) of that investment, according to the following formula:

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


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

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                [OBJECT OMITTED]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      |_| Total Returns at Net Asset Value.  From time to time the Fund may
also quote a cumulative or an average annual total return "at net asset value"
(without deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B or Class C 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.

      |_| 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 based on categories relating to
investment objectives.  The performance of the Fund is ranked by Lipper against
all other bond funds, other than money market funds, and other municipal bond
funds.  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 and ranks
mutual funds in their specialized market sector.  The Fund is rated among the
Municipal Single State Long category.

      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.

      |_|  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 Class A, Class B or Class C 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 Fund's Class A, Class B or Class C
returns 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 nor 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.

|X|   Right of Accumulation. To qualify for the lower sales charge rates that
apply to larger purchases of Class A shares, you and your spouse can add
together:
o     Class A and Class B shares you purchase for your individual accounts
            (including IRAs and 403(b) plans), or for your joint accounts, or
            for trust or custodial accounts on behalf of your children who are
            minors, and
o     Current purchases of Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other
            Oppenheimer funds to reduce the sales charge rate that applies to
            current purchases of Class A shares, and
o     Class A and Class B shares of Oppenheimer funds you previously purchased
            subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales charge to reduce
            the sales charge rate for current purchases of Class A shares,
            provided that you still hold your investment in one of the
            Oppenheimer funds.

      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.

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

      There is an initial sales charge on the purchase of Class A shares of
each of the Oppenheimer funds described above except the money market funds.
Under certain circumstances described in this 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, if you purchase Class A shares or
Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds during a
13-month period, you can reduce the sales charge rate that applies to your
purchases of Class A shares. The total amount of your intended purchases of
both Class A and Class B shares will determine the reduced sales charge rate
for the Class A shares purchased during that period. You can include purchases
made up to 90 days before the date of the Letter. Letters of Intent do not
consider Class C shares you purchase or may have purchased.

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

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

      In submitting a Letter, the investor makes no commitment to purchase
shares. However, if the investor's purchases of shares within the Letter of
Intent 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 of Intent. 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 of Intent.

      If the total eligible purchases made during the Letter of Intent 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 of Intent 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

To access account documents electronically via eDocs Direct, please visit the
Service Center on our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com or call
                                 ------------------------
1.888.470.0862 for instructions.

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

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

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

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

o     Long-term debt securities having a remaining maturity in excess of 60
days are valued based on the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices
determined by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.
o     The following securities are valued at the mean between the "bid" and
"asked" prices determined by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:
(1)   debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when issued,
(2)   debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued and
               have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
(3)   non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less
               when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60 days or
               less.
o     The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization of
premiums and accretion of discounts:
(1)   money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a
               maturity of less than 397 days when issued that have a remaining
               maturity of 60 days or less, and
(2)   debt instruments held by a money market fund that have a remaining
               maturity of 397 days or less.
Securities (including restricted securities) not having readily-available
market quotations are valued at fair value determined under the Board's
procedures. If the Manager is unable to locate two market makers willing to
give quotes, a security may be priced at the mean between the "bid" and "asked"
prices provided by a single active market maker (which in certain cases may be
the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available).

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

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

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

How to Sell Shares

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

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

      In choosing to take advantage of the Checkwriting privilege, by signing
the account application or by completing a Checkwriting card, each individual
who signs:
(1)   for individual accounts, represents that they are the registered owner(s)
           of the shares of the Fund in that account;
(2)   for accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts and other entities,
           represents that they are an officer, general partner, trustee or
           other fiduciary or agent, as applicable, duly authorized to act on
           behalf of the registered owner(s);
(3)   authorizes the Fund, its Transfer Agent and any bank through which the
           Fund's drafts (checks) are payable to pay all checks drawn on the
           Fund account of such person(s) and to redeem a sufficient amount of
           shares from that account to cover payment of each check;
(4)   specifically acknowledges that if they choose to permit checks to be
           honored if there is a single signature on checks drawn against joint
           accounts, or accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts or
           other entities, the signature of any one signatory on a check will
           be sufficient to authorize payment of that check and redemption from
           the account, even if that account is registered in the names of more
           than one person or more than one authorized signature appears on the
           Checkwriting card or the application, as applicable;
(5)   understands that the Checkwriting privilege may be terminated or amended
           at any time by the Fund and/or the Fund's bank; and
(6)   acknowledges and agrees that neither the Fund nor its bank shall incur
           any liability for that amendment or termination of checkwriting
           privileges or for redeeming shares to pay checks reasonably believed
           by them to be genuine, or for returning or not paying checks that
           have not been accepted for any reason.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      |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.

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

      The Transfer Agent will administer the investor's Automatic Withdrawal
Plan as agent for the shareholder(s) (the "Planholder") who executed the Plan
authorization and application submitted to the Transfer Agent. Neither the 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 Y shares of Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund may not be exchanged for
      shares of any other fund.
o     Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are
      generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k)
      plans.
o     Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be
      exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may
      not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
      Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund
      or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M shares.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund may not be exchanged for
      shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash Reserves
      or Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund.  Only participants in
      certain retirement plans may purchase shares of Oppenheimer Capital
      Preservation Fund, and only those participants may exchange shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation
      Fund.
o     Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund are not available
      by exchange of shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or Class A shares
      of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves.
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).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

o     When Class B or Class C 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 or Class C contingent deferred sales charge will be
followed in determining the order in which the shares are exchanged. Before
exchanging shares, shareholders should take into account how the exchange may
affect any contingent deferred sales charge that might be imposed in the
subsequent redemption of remaining shares.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|X|   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.

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

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

      A portion of the exempt-interest dividends paid by the Fund may be an
item of tax preference for shareholders subject to the federal alternative
minimum tax. The amount of any dividends attributable to tax preference items
for purposes of the alternative minimum tax will be identified when tax
information is distributed by the Fund.

      A shareholder receiving a dividend from income earned by the Fund from
one or more of the following sources must treat the dividend as ordinary income
in the computation of the shareholder's gross income, regardless of whether the
dividend is reinvested:
(1)   certain taxable temporary investments (such as certificates of deposit,
          repurchase agreements, commercial paper and obligations of the U.S.
          government, its agencies and instrumentalities);
(2)   income from securities loans;
(3)   income or gains from options or futures,
(4)   any net short-term capital gain; and
(5)   any market discount amortization on tax-exempt bonds.

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

      To the extent that distributions paid by the Fund are derived from
interest on New Jersey municipal securities and obligations of the U.S.
Treasury, those distributions will also be exempt from New Jersey individual
income tax. Distributions from the Fund attributable to income from sources
other than those will generally be subject to New Jersey individual income tax
as ordinary income.

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

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

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

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

|X|   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.

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

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

      If the ordinary income dividends from the Fund are effectively connected
                                                     ---
with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign person may claim
an exemption from the U.S. tax described above provided the Fund obtains a
properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status.

      If the foreign person fails to provide a certification of his/her foreign
status, the Fund will be required to withhold U.S. tax at a rate of 28% on
ordinary income dividends (not including "exempt-interest dividends"), capital
gains distributions (including short-term and long-term) and the proceeds of
the redemption of shares, paid to any foreign person. All income and any tax
withheld (in this situation) by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S.
Treasury and is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each
year.

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

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Fund.  It audits the
Fund's financial statements and perform other related audit services.  It also
acts as an independent registered public accounting firm for the Manager and
certain other funds advised by the Manager and its affiliates. Audit and

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
OPPENHEIMER MULTI-STATE MUNICIPAL TRUST:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer New Jersey Municipal Fund, (one of the portfolios constituting the
Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust) including the statement of investments,
as of July 31, 2004, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two
years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights
based on our audits.

      We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2004, by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies
from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

      In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer New Jersey Municipal Fund as of July 31, 2004, the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

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

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

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

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's")
Municipal Ratings are opinions of the investment quality of issuers and issues
in the U.S. municipal and tax-exempt markets. As such, these ratings
incorporate Moody's assessment of the default probability and loss severity of
these issuers and issues.

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

MUNICIPAL LONG-TERM RATING DEFINITIONS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 in each generic rating
classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the
obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier
2 indicates a mid- range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the
lower end of that generic rating category.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

N.R. Not rated.

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

Bond Investment Quality Standards

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.





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

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

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

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

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

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds,
the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
         1) plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
            Revenue Code,
         2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
         3) employee benefit plans4
         4) Group Retirement Plans5
         5) 403(b)(7) custodial plan accounts
         6) Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), including traditional
            IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs or SIMPLE plans

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

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





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

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

      There is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of any of
the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases may
be subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within
18 months (24 months in the case of Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals
and Rochester Fund Municipals) of the beginning of the calendar month of their
purchase, as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver described elsewhere
in this Appendix applies to the redemption). Additionally, on shares purchased
under these waivers that are subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales
charge, the Distributor will pay the applicable concession described in the
Prospectus under "Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge."6 This waiver
provision applies to:
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
         purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
         deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
         (other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
         costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
         eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
         certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
         purchases of $200,000 or more.
|_|   Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the purchases
         are made:
         1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser
            that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those
            purchases, or
         2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified Retirement
            Plan if the administrator of that Plan has made special
            arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
         following record-keeping arrangements:
         1) The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner &
            Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the
            Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
            record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan must
            have $3 million or more of its assets invested in (a) mutual funds,
            other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch Investment
            Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available under a Service
            Agreement between Merrill Lynch and the mutual fund's principal
            underwriter or distributor, and  (b)  funds advised or managed by
            MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b) are referred to as
            "Applicable Investments").
         2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a daily
            valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are provided
            under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement Plan and
            Merrill Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the record
            keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan must have $3
            million or more of its assets (excluding assets invested in money
            market funds) invested in Applicable Investments.
         3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a service
            agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date the plan sponsor signs
            that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible employees (as
            determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion manager).

              Waivers of Class A Sales Charges of Oppenheimer Funds
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

Class A shares purchased by the following investors are not subject to any
Class A sales charges (and no concessions are paid by the Distributor on such
purchases):
|_|   The Manager or its affiliates.
|_|   Present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and their
         "immediate families") of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates, and
         retirement plans established by them for their employees. The term
         "immediate family" refers to one's spouse, children, grandchildren,
         grandparents, parents, parents-in-law, brothers and sisters, sons- and
         daughters-in-law, a sibling's spouse, a spouse's siblings, aunts,
         uncles, nieces and nephews; relatives by virtue of a remarriage
         (step-children, step-parents, etc.) are included.
|_|   Registered management investment companies, or separate accounts of
         insurance companies having an agreement with the Manager or the
         Distributor for that purpose.
|_|   Dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
         they purchase shares for their own accounts or for retirement plans
         for their employees.
|_|   Employees and registered representatives (and their spouses) of dealers
         or brokers described above or financial institutions that have entered
         into sales arrangements with such dealers or brokers (and which are
         identified as such to the Distributor) or with the Distributor. The
         purchaser must certify to the Distributor at the time of purchase that
         the purchase is for the purchaser's own account (or for the benefit of
         such employee's spouse or minor children).
|_|   Dealers, brokers, banks or registered investment advisors that have
         entered into an agreement with the Distributor providing specifically
         for the use of shares of the Fund in particular investment products
         made available to their clients. Those clients may be charged a
         transaction fee by their dealer, broker, bank or advisor for the
         purchase or sale of Fund shares.
|_|   Investment advisors and financial planners who have entered into an
         agreement for this purpose with the Distributor and who charge an
         advisory, consulting or other fee for their services and buy shares
         for their own accounts or the accounts of their clients.
|_|   "Rabbi trusts" that buy shares for their own accounts, if the purchases
         are made through a broker or agent or other financial intermediary

To be eligible, those persons must have been shareholders on November 24, 1995,

ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

The Fund's Investment Policies.  The composition of the Fund's portfolio and the techniques and strategies that the Fund's 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 at all times in seeking its objective.  It may use some of the special investment techniques and
strategies at some times or not at all.

         The Fund does not make investments with the objective of seeking capital growth , since that would generally be inconsistent
with its goal of seeking tax-exempt income.  However, the values of the securities held by the Fund may be affected by changes in
general interest rates and other factors prior to their maturity.  Because the current value of debt securities vary inversely with
changes in prevailing interest rates, if interest rates increased after a security is purchased, that security will normally decline
in value.  Conversely, should interest rates decrease after a security is purchased, normally its value will rise.

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

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

Municipal Securities.  The types of municipal securities in which the Fund may invest are described in the Prospectus under "About
the Fund's Investments."  As a fundamental policy, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal securities.  In addition,
as a fundamental policy, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in Pennsylvania
municipal securities.  This includes securities that generate income subject to the alternative minimum tax. The Manager has
interpreted the Fund's policy regarding investment in municipal securities to require the Fund to invest at least 80% of the Fund's
net assets in municipal securities. Municipal securities are generally classified as general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and
notes.  A discussion of the general characteristics of these principal types of municipal securities follows below.

         |X| Municipal Bonds.  The Fund has have classified municipal securities having a maturity (when the security is issued) of
more than one (1) year as "municipal bonds."  The principal classifications of long-term municipal bonds are "general obligation" and
"revenue" (including "industrial development") bonds.  They may have fixed, variable or floating rates of interest, as described
below.

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

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

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

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

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

                  |X| Private Activity Bonds.  Interest on certain Qualified Private Activity Bonds is excludable from gross income
for federal income tax purposes if certain tests are met. They are issued by or on behalf of public authorities to raise money to
finance various privately operated facilities for business and manufacturing, housing, sports, and pollution control.  These bonds
may also be used to finance public facilities such as airports, mass transit systems, ports, and parking.  The payment of the
principal and interest on such bonds is dependent solely on the ability of the facility's user to meet its financial obligations and
the pledge, if any, of real and personal property financed by the bond as security for those payments.

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

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

         Interest on certain private activity bonds issued after August 7, 1986, which continues to be tax-exempt, will be treated as
a tax preference item subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (discussed below) to which certain taxpayers are subject.  The
Fund may hold municipal securities the interest on which (and thus a proportionate share of the exempt-interest dividends paid by the
Fund) will be subject to the Federal alternative minimum tax on individuals and corporations. There are no limits on the amount of
assets the Fund may invest in private activity securities.

         The Federal alternative minimum tax is designed to ensure that all persons who receive income pay some tax, even if their
regular tax is zero.  This is accomplished in part by including in taxable income certain tax preference items that are used to
calculate alternative minimum taxable income.  The Tax Reform Act made tax-exempt interest from certain private activity bonds a tax
preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax on individuals and corporations.  Any exempt-interest dividend paid by a
regulated investment company will be treated as interest on a specific private activity bond to the extent of the proportionate
relationship the interest the investment company receives on such bonds bears to all its exempt interest dividends.

         In addition, corporate taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax may, under some circumstances, have to include
exempt-interest dividends in calculating their alternative minimum taxable income. That could occur in situations where the "adjusted
current earnings" of the corporation exceeds its alternative minimum taxable income.

         To determine whether a municipal security is treated as a taxable private activity bond, it is subject to a test for: (a) a
trade or business use and security interest, or (b) a private loan restriction. Under the trade or business use and security interest
test, an obligation is a private activity bond if: (i) more than 10% of the bond proceeds are used for private business purposes and
(ii) 10% or more of the payment of principal or interest on the issue is directly or indirectly derived from such private use or is
secured by the privately used property or the payments related to the use of the property. For certain types of uses, a 5% threshold
is substituted for this 10% threshold.

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

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

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

         |X| Municipal Notes.  Municipal securities having a maturity (when the security is issued) of less than one (1) year are
generally known as municipal notes.  Municipal notes generally are used to provide for short-term working capital needs.  Some of the
types of municipal notes the Fund can invest in are described below.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         |_| the frequency of trades and price quotations for such securities;
         |_| the number of dealers or other potential buyers willing to purchase or sell such securities;
         |_| the availability of market-makers; and
         |_| the nature of the trades for such securities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Special Risks of Investing  Primarily in  Pennsylvania  Municipal  Securities.  Because the Fund focuses its  investments  primarily on
Pennsylvania  municipal  securities,  the value of its portfolio  investments  will be highly  sensitive to events affecting the fiscal
stability of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and its  municipalities,  authorities and other  instrumentalities  that issue securities
in which the Fund invests, including political developments,  economic problems and legislation.  Many different social,  environmental
and  economic  factors  may  affect  the  financial  condition  of  Pennsylvania  and its  political  subdivisions.  From  time to time
Pennsylvania and certain of its political  subdivisions  have encountered  financial  difficulties  that have adversely  affected their
respective credit standings.  Other factors that may negatively affect economic  conditions in Pennsylvania  include adverse changes in
employment  rates,  federal revenue sharing or laws with respect to tax-exempt  financing.  In addition,  the recent national  economic
recession and the continuing economic uncertainty has had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on the Pennsylvania economy.

         It is not possible to predict the future  impact of the  political  developments,  economic  problems and  legislation  on the
long-term  ability of the  Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or Pennsylvania  municipal  issuers to pay interest or repay principal on their
obligations.  The  information  below about these  conditions is only a brief summary  based upon  information  the Fund has drawn from
sources that it believes are reliable,  including official statements  relating to securities  offerings of Pennsylvania  issuers.  The
information below is general in nature and does not provide  information about financial  condition of the state or specific issuers in
whose securities the Fund may invest, or the risks of those specific investments.

         |X| The Effect of General  Economic  Conditions in the State.  The  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania is one of the most populous
states,  ranking  sixth  behind  California,  Texas,  New York,  Florida and  Illinois.  Pennsylvania  is an  established  state with a
diversified  economy.  It is the headquarters  for many major  corporations.  Pennsylvania had historically  been identified as a heavy
industry state.  That  reputation has changed over the last thirty years as the coal,  steel and railroad  industries  declined and the
Commonwealth's  business environment  readjusted with a more diversified economic base. This economic  readjustment was a direct result
of a long-term  shift in jobs,  investment  and workers away from the  northeast  part of the nation.  Currently,  the major sources of
growth in  Pennsylvania  are in the  service  sector,  including  trade,  medical  and the health  services,  education  and  financial
institutions.  Pennsylvania's estimated 5.7 million-person work force ranks as the sixth largest labor pool in the nation.

         The  Commonwealth  uses the fund method of accounting.  The General Fund, the  Commonwealth's  largest fund,  receives all tax
revenues,  non-tax revenues and federal grants and entitlements that are not specified by law to be deposited  elsewhere.  The majority
of the  Commonwealth's  operating  and  administrative  expenses  are  payable  from the  General  Fund.  Debt  service  and all bonded
indebtedness  of the  Commonwealth,  except that issued for highway  purposes or for the benefit of other  special  revenue  funds,  is
payable from the General Fund.


         Beginning with its GAAP basis financial  statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, the Commonwealth  adopted several
new  accounting  and  reporting  standards  established  by  the  Governmental  Accounting  Standards  Board  (collectively,  the  "New
Standards").  Among other things,  these New Standards  require  presentation  of  government-wide  and fund financial  statements that
constitute  basic  financial   statements  and  replace   general-purpose   financial   statements  reported  under  former  standards.
Government-wide  financial  statements  are intended to portray the government  "as a whole" while fund  financial  statements  provide
fund-specific  information.  Government-wide  financial  statements  are intended to describe the total cost of providing  governmental
services and disclose whether the Commonwealth's financial condition improved or weakened during the fiscal year

         Legislation  enacted  with the  adoption of the fiscal year 2003  budget  abolished  the Tax  Stabilization  Reserve  Fund and
transferred its balance of $1.038 billion to the General Fund. That  legislation  also  established a new reserve fund named the Budget
Stabilization  Reserve Fund and initially  directed $300 million of funding from the General Fund for deposit to the fund during fiscal
year 2003.  Subsequently,  the General Assembly  repealed the $300 million transfer  allowing that amount to remain in the General Fund
to help offset anticipated revenue shortfalls to the fiscal year 2003 budget.

Financial Results for Recent Fiscal Years (GAAP Basis).

         During the five-year period from fiscal year 1999 through fiscal year 2003,  total revenues and other sources  increased by an
average of 4.3 percent  annually.  Tax  revenues  during this same period  increased by an annual  average of 1.9  percent.  During the
past several  fiscal years slow economic  growth and the resulting slow growth for tax revenues have caused fees and license income and
other  financing  sources such as transfers  from other funds to become a larger  portion of income to the General  Fund.  Expenditures
and other uses during the fiscal years 1999 through 2003 rose at an average  annual rate of 5.7  percent.  Comparison  of  expenditures
by  individual  category in fiscal years 2002 and 2003 to prior fiscal  years is not  reliable due to a change to the  definitions  for
these  expenditure  categories in fiscal year 2002. The fund balance at June 30, 2003 totaled  $2,357.7  million,  a decrease of $665.1
million  from the  balance at June 30,  2002  (restated).  The fiscal year 2003  year-end  unreserved-undesignated  portion of the fund
balance was $1,314.5 million, $289.3 million below the amount recorded for fiscal year 2002.

Fiscal 2003 Results.

         Continued slow growth in the national economy since the recession of 2001 impacted the Commonwealth tax and revenue
collections in fiscal year 2003.  Actual fiscal year Commonwealth revenues were below estimate by 2.3 percent or $497.6 million.
Total fiscal year 2003 Commonwealth revenues net of reserves for tax refunds and including intergovernmental transfers and additional
resources were $21,808.5 million.  Actual expenditures from fiscal year 2003 appropriations were 1.4 percent or $295.7 million below
the original enacted amounts for fiscal year 2003.  Total expenditures net of appropriation lapses and including intergovernmental
transfers and expenditures from additional resources totaled $21,671.9 million.  As result of financial operations during fiscal year
2003, efforts to reduce expenditures and the General Assembly's repeal of the transfer of $300 million from the General Fund to the
Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund, the unappropriated surplus balance increased by $136.6 million prior to the statutorily required
25 percent transfer to the Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund.  As result, the fiscal year 2003 final unappropriated surplus balance
was $209.3 million as of June 30, 2003.

         Revenues available to the Commonwealth, including intergovernmental transfers and additional resources, and prior to
reserves for refunds increased 11.0 percent from fiscal year 2002 levels.  Fiscal year 2003 revenues totaled $21,808.5 million, an
increase of $2.2 billion over fiscal year 2002 revenues.  Commonwealth taxes and revenues, prior to reserves for refunds, increased
by $1.3 billion to $21,314.5 million in fiscal year 2003, a 6.3 percent increase.  This increase in tax revenues was primarily due to
increases for certain Commonwealth taxes enacted with the fiscal 2003 budget.  While Commonwealth revenues increased year over year,
revenues were below the estimate enacted with the fiscal 2003 budget.  Commonwealth taxes and revenues (prior to reserves for tax
refunds) totaled $21,314.5 million, $497.6 million (2.3 percent) below the estimate made at the time the fiscal year 2003 budget was
enacted.  Most major Commonwealth tax categories performed below the estimated amount for fiscal year 2003.

         For GAAP purposes, the General Fund reported a fund balance of $2,357.7 million, a decrease of $665 million from the
reported $3,022.8 million fund balance at June 30, 2002.  On a net basis, total assets increased by $388 million to $8,525 million.
Liabilities increased by $1,053 million to $6,167 million largely because of a $383 million increase in accounts payable.  A large
part of the $665 million net decrease in General Fund balance was because the General Fund transferred $903 million to other Funds
and provided $1,037 million to component units.  Without these items, the General Fund would have increased by $1,275 million.  Total
General Fund expenditures increased by 8.2 percent during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, on a reported basis, largely because
of a sharp increase in expenditures for medical and other assistance (reported as part of health and human services) and a change in
classification for component unit subsidies.  The overall decrease in fund balance ($665 million) during the fiscal year was an
improvement of $957 million over the prior year fiscal year decrease in fund balance ($1,622 million).  On an overall basis, during
periods of declining or slow economic growth, it is common for the fund balance of the General Fund to decline.

Fiscal 2004 Results.

         A rebounding national economy that exceeded preliminary estimates for growth resulted in actual fiscal year 2004
Commonwealth General Fund revenues exceeding the budget estimate by 2.9 percent, or $636.7 million.  Total fiscal year 2004 revenues
net of reserves for tax refunds and including intergovernmental transfers and additional resources totaled $23,159.7 million.  Total
expenditures net of appropriation lapses and including intergovernmental transfers and expenditures from additional resources was
$23,089.2 million.  As result of Commonwealth financial operations during the fiscal year the preliminary unappropriated surplus
balance, prior to the statutorily required 25 percent transfer to the Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund, was scheduled to increase
$57.5 million to $266.8 million from the fiscal year 2003 ending balance.  Following the statutorily required 25 percent transfer to
the Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund ($66.7 million), a supplemental transfer of $123.3 million also made to the Budget
Stabilization Reserve Fund.  As result, the fiscal year 2004 final unappropriated surplus balance was $76.7 million as of June 30,
2004.

         Revenues available to the Commonwealth, including intergovernmental transfers and additional resources increased 6.2 percent
from fiscal year 2003 levels.  Fiscal year 2004 revenues totaled $23,159.7 million, an increase of $1,351.2 million over fiscal year
2003 revenues. Commonwealth taxes and revenues, prior to reserves for refunds, increased by $1,513.6 million to $22,828.1 million in
fiscal year 2004, a 7.1 percent increase from fiscal year 2003 actual receipts.  This increase in tax revenues was primarily due to
increases for certain Commonwealth taxes enacted with the fiscal year 2004 budget.  Tax revenues to the Commonwealth for fiscal year
2004 exceeded the budget estimate, as re-certified in December 2003, by $636.7 million or 2.9 percent.  Nearly all Commonwealth major
tax and revenue categories experienced revenue collections above the budget estimate.  Non-tax revenue collections were $158.9
million (25.5 percent) greater than projected, principally due to increased earnings on investments and the enhancement of
Commonwealth's escheat program.  In addition, as part of the fiscal year 2004 budget certain tax, fee and other revenue enhancement
items totaling $794 million were enacted.

         Reserves for tax refunds in fiscal year 2004 were $1,014.7 million, an increase of 9.2 percent over fiscal year 2003
reserves.  Recent tax rate and tax base changes have contributed to the growth rate in refunds in fiscal year 2004.  Actual tax
refunds have stabilized after several recent years of increases.  At the end of fiscal year 2004, approximately $91.7 million of
reserves were available for making tax refunds in the following fiscal year.

         Expenditures for the fiscal year, including supplemental appropriations, intergovernmental transfers and additional
resources, and net of appropriation lapses, totaled $23,089.2million, representing an increase of $1,417.3 million or 6.5 percent
from the fiscal year 2003 level.  A total of $182.9 million in appropriations were lapsed in fiscal year 2004.  The fiscal year 2004
budget continued to utilize an enhanced level of intergovernmental transfers for a portion of medical assistance costs, albeit at a
reduced rate from fiscal year 2003.

         GAAP financial information is not yet available for fiscal year 2004.

         As part of his fiscal year 2004 budget proposal, the Governor proposed two major program expansions that were enacted by the
General Assembly.  In education, the Governor proposed to shift a substantial portion of local public school costs from local
property taxes levied by school districts to an increased subsidy payment to school districts by the Commonwealth.  The program as
enacted would increase, over time, the Commonwealth's subsidy of local public school costs to 50 percent of total costs in the
aggregate.  Funds for education at the local level totaling nearly $1.0 billion are expected to be funded from taxes realized from
the legalization of slot machines at racetracks in the state.  The increased level of education funding from the Commonwealth would
be used to reduce local property taxes by an equal amount.  The Governor also proposed an economic stimulus plan for the Commonwealth
to provide additional funding to be combined with private investments to invest in economic development projects within the state.
Investments are to be directed to blighted rural, urban and suburban sites to be re-developed to spur the location of new
job-creating businesses.  The funding for the economic stimulus program is to come from $2,025 million of debt issued over more than
four fiscal years.

         Major portions of the Governor's economic stimulus proposal were enacted with the passage of Acts 10, 12, 22, 23 and 67 of
2004.

Fiscal 2005 Budget.

         The adopted budget for fiscal year 2005 is based on an estimated 4.5 percent increase for Commonwealth General Fund revenues
prior to accounting for any changes in tax and revenue provisions enacted in the second half of fiscal year 2004.  After adjustments
for various tax rate and tax base changes enacted for the fiscal year 2004 budget, total Commonwealth General Fund revenues are
projected to increase 3.8 percent over fiscal year 2004 actual receipts and total $23,866.5 million prior to reserves for tax
refunds.  The tax revenue component of Commonwealth receipts, including the effects of the tax rate and tax base changes enacted in
fiscal year 2004, is expected to rise $1,342.1 million or 6.1 percent over fiscal year 2004 actual receipts.  Approximately
two-thirds of the increase in tax revenues is associated with the various tax rate and tax base changes.

         Receipts of Commonwealth non-tax revenues are expected to return to historic levels of approximately $478.4 million in
fiscal year 2005, a reduction of $303.6 million from fiscal year 2004 actual receipts.

         The fiscal year 2005 estimate for Commonwealth revenues as estimated in June 2004 was based upon an economic forecast for
national real gross domestic product to grow at a 4.1 percent rate from the second quarter 2004 to the second quarter 2005.  The
forecast anticipates that economic growth will continue to recover from a recent period of softness in the second quarter of 2004 and
that employment levels will continue to improve moderately.  Trends in the Pennsylvania economy are expected to maintain their close
association with national economic trends.  Personal income growth in Pennsylvania is projected to remain slightly below that of the
U.S., while the Pennsylvania unemployment rate is anticipated to be close to the national rate.
         The enacted fiscal year 2005 budget provides $22,876.1 million of appropriations from Commonwealth revenues, an increase of
4.5 percent from fiscal year 2004 appropriations, and represents a planned draw down of $71.8 million of the unappropriated surplus
balance available at the end of fiscal year 2004.  In addition, approximately $377.6 million of remaining federal fiscal relief is
appropriated in fiscal year 2005 to fund expenditures normally funded from Commonwealth revenues.  The enacted budget also includes
$673.8 million in funding for medical assistance expenditures through intergovernmental transfer proceeds.  This amount is a decrease
of 8.8 percent from the $738.7 million in intergovernmental transfer proceeds utilized during fiscal year 2004.

         The achievement of the budgeted results may be adversely affected by a number of trends or events, including developments in
the national and state economy.

         According to the Pennsylvania  Department of Revenue  "Monthly  Revenue Report" for August 2004, the state collected  $1,657.7
million in General Fund revenues in August 2004 - $103.7  million,  or 6.7 percent  above the official  estimate.  Fiscal  year-to-date
General Fund collections total $3,133.8 million, which is $28.6 million, or 0.9 percent, above the official estimate.

Commonwealth Debt.

         The current  constitutional  provisions  relating to Commonwealth debt permit the issuance of the following types of debt: (i)
debt to suppress  insurrection  or  rehabilitate  areas affected by disaster,  (ii)  electorate  approved debt,  (iii) debt for capital
projects  subject to an aggregate debt limit of 1.75 times the annual  average tax revenue of the preceding five (5) fiscal years,  and
(iv) tax  anticipation  notes  payable in the fiscal year of  issuance.  All debt except tax  anticipation  notes must be  amortized in
substantial and regular amounts.  Outstanding general obligation debt totaled $6,892.6 million at June 30, 2004.

         Other  state-related   obligations  include  "moral  obligations."  Moral  obligation   indebtedness  may  be  issued  by  the
Pennsylvania  Housing  Financing  Agency,  a  state-created  agency which provides  financing for housing for lower and moderate income
families,  and the Hospitals and Higher Education Facilities Authority of Philadelphia,  a municipal authority organized by the City of
Philadelphia  to, among other  things,  acquire and prepare  various sites for use as  intermediate  care  facilities  for the mentally
retarded.

         The  Commonwealth,  through several of its departments and agencies,  leases various real property and equipment.  Some leases
and their respective lease payments are, with the Commonwealth's  approval,  pledged as security for debt obligations issued by certain
public  authorities or other  entities  within the state.  All lease  payments  payable by  Commonwealth  departments  and agencies are
subject to and  dependent  upon an annual  spending  authorization  approved  through the  Commonwealth's  annual budget  process.  The
Commonwealth  is not required by law to  appropriate  or otherwise  provide  moneys from which the lease  payments are to be paid.  The
obligations to be paid from such lease payments are not bonded debt of the Commonwealth.

         In addition,  certain  Commonwealth-created  organizations  have statutory  authorization to issue debt for which Commonwealth
appropriations  to pay debt service thereon are not required.  The debt of these  organizations is funded by the assets of, or revenues
derived from, the various  projects  financed and is not a statutory or moral obligation of the  Commonwealth.  Some of these agencies,
however,  are indirectly  dependent on Commonwealth  operating  appropriations.  The Commonwealth also maintains pension plans covering
state employees, public school employees and employees of certain state-related organizations.

         As of September 20, 2003,  Pennsylvania  general  obligation bonds were rated AA by S&P, Aa2 by Moody's and AA by Fitch. Those
ratings are subject to change.

         |X| Local Tax  Considerations.  Pennsylvania  municipalities  and school districts are, with certain  limitations,  authorized
to impose a variety of taxes.  The real estate tax is the only tax  authorized  by law to be levied by all classes of local  government
in the state.  Thus,  property owners generally pay real estate taxes to three independent  authorities - the county,  the municipality
and the school district.

         The Local Tax Enabling Act,  applicable to almost all political  subdivisions in Pennsylvania,  gives local governments (other
than counties) and school  districts in  Pennsylvania a broad range of non-real  estate tax sources.  The taxes commonly in use include
the earned  income or wage tax,  per capita  taxes,  occupation  taxes,  occupational  privilege  taxes,  real estate  transfer  taxes,
amusement and admission taxes and business gross receipts taxes.  Counties are also permitted to impose  intangible  personal  property
taxes.

         In addition,  the City and School  District of  Philadelphia  have separate  taxing  authority to impose a variety of business
taxes, wage taxes, income and other various taxes.

         There is various litigation pending against the Commonwealth,  its officers and employees.  An adverse decision in one or more
of these cases could materially affect the Commonwealth's governmental operations.

         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 them.

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

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

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

         The interest rate on a floating  rate demand note is based on a stated  prevailing  market rate,  such as a bank's prime rate,
the  ninety-one  (91) day U.S.  Treasury  Bill rate,  or some other  standard,  and is  adjusted  automatically  each time such rate is
adjusted.  The  interest  rate on a  variable  rate  demand  note is also  based on a stated  prevailing  market  rate but is  adjusted
automatically  at  specified  intervals  of not less than one year.  Generally,  the changes in the  interest  rate on such  securities
reduce the  fluctuation  in their market value.  As interest  rates  decrease or increase,  the potential for capital  appreciation  or
depreciation is less than that for fixed-rate obligations of the same maturity.

         The Manager  may  determine  that an unrated  floating  rate or  variable  rate  demand  obligation  meets the Fund's  quality
standards by reason of being backed by a letter of credit or guarantee issued by a bank that meets those quality standards.

         Floating rate and variable  rate demand notes that have a stated  maturity in excess of one year may have features that permit
the holder to recover the principal  amount of the  underlying  security at specified  intervals not exceeding one (1) year and upon no
more than thirty (30) days'  notice.  The issuer of that type of note normally has a  corresponding  right in its  discretion,  after a
given  period,  to prepay the  outstanding  principal  amount of the note plus accrued  interest.  Generally  the issuer must provide a
specified  number of days' notice to the holder.  Floating  rate or variable rate  obligations  that do not provide for the recovery of
principal and interest within seven (7) days are subject to the Fund's limitations on investments in illiquid securities.

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

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

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

         |X| Other  Derivatives.  The Fund can invest in other  municipal  derivative  securities that pay interest that depends on the
change in value of an underlying  asset,  interest  rate or index.  Examples are interest  rate swaps,  municipal  bond indices or swap
indices.

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

         When such  transactions  are  negotiated  the price  (which is  generally  expressed  in yield terms) is fixed at the time the
commitment is made.  Delivery and payment for the securities  take place at a later date.  Normally the  settlement  date is within six
(6) months of the purchase of municipal  bonds and notes.  However,  the Fund may,  from time to time,  purchase  municipal  securities
having a settlement  date more than six (6) months and possibly as long as two (2) years or more after the trade date.  The  securities
are  subject to change in value from market  fluctuation  during the  settlement  period.  The value at  delivery  may be less than the
purchase price.  For example,  changes in interest rates in a direction other than that expected by the Manager before  settlement will
affect the value of such  securities  and may cause loss to the Fund. No income begins to accrue to the Fund on a when-issued  security
until the Fund receives the security at settlement of the trade.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         The majority of these  transactions  run from day to day.  Delivery  pursuant to resale typically will occur within one (1) to
five (5) days of the  purchase.  Repurchase  agreements  having a maturity  beyond  seven (7) days are subject to the Fund's  limits on
holding  illiquid  investments.  There is no limit on the amount of the Fund's net assets that may be subject to repurchase  agreements
of seven (7) days or less.

         Repurchase  agreements,  considered  "loans"  under  the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940  ("Investment  Company  Act"),  are
collateralized by the underlying  security.  The Fund's repurchase  agreements require that at all times while the repurchase agreement
is in effect, the collateral's value must equal or exceed the repurchase price to fully collateralize the repayment obligation.

         The Manager will monitor the vendor's  creditworthiness  to confirm that the vendor is financially sound and will continuously
monitor the  collateral's  value.  However,  if the vendor fails to pay the resale price on the delivery date, the Fund may incur costs
in disposing of the collateral and may experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to do so.

         Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the 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.  The Fund has  percentage  limitations  that apply to  purchases  of illiquid  and
restricted  securities,  as stated in the  Prospectus.  The Manager  monitors  holdings of illiquid  and  restricted  securities  on an
ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any holdings to maintain adequate liquidity.

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 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.

         |X| Borrowing for Leverage.  The Fund has the ability to borrow from banks on an unsecured basis in amounts limited (as a
fundamental policy) to a maximum of 10% of its total assets for extraordinary or emergency purposes.  The Fund may also borrow up to
5% of its total assets to invest the borrowed funds in portfolio securities.  This technique is known as "leverage."  The Fund may
borrow only from banks for investment purposes and extraordinary or emergency purposes, and may borrow from affiliated investment
companies only for extraordinary or emergency purposes subject to obtaining all required authorizations and regulatory approvals.
Under applicable laws, 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 three (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.

         In addition, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC to Citicorp North America, Inc. ("Citicorp"), the Fund also
has the ability to borrow, subject to the limits established by its investment policies, from commercial paper and medium-term note
conduits administered by Citicorp that issue promissory notes to fund loans to investment companies such as the Fund. These loans may
be secured by assets of the Fund, so long as the Fund's policies permit it to pledge its assets to secure a debt. Liquidity support
for these loans will be provided by banks obligated to make loans to the Fund in the event the conduit or conduits are unable or
unwilling to make such loans. The Fund will have the right to prepay such loans and terminate its participation in the conduit loan
facility at any time upon prior notice. As a borrower under a conduit loan facility, the Fund maintains rights and remedies under
state and federal law comparable to those it would maintain with respect to a loan from a bank.

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

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

         When it lends securities, the Fund receives amounts equal to the dividends or interest on the loaned securities.  It also
receives one or more of (a) negotiated loan fees, (b) interest on securities used as collateral, and (c) interest on short-term debt
securities purchased with the loan collateral. Either type of interest may be shared with the borrower.  The Fund may pay reasonable
finder's, custodian and administrative or other fees in connection with these loans.  The terms of the Fund's loans must meet
applicable tests under the Internal Revenue Code and must permit the Fund to reacquire loaned securities on five (5) days' notice or
in time to vote on any important matter.

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

         |_| sell interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures,
         |_| buy puts on such futures or securities, or
         |_| write covered calls on securities, broadly-based municipal bond indices, interest rate futures or municipal bond index
         futures.

         The Fund can also write covered calls on debt securities to attempt to increase the Fund's income, but that income would not
be tax-exempt.  Therefore it is unlikely that the Fund would write covered calls for that purpose.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(1)      After the Fund writes a call, not more than 25% of the Fund's total assets may be subject to calls.
(2)      Calls the Fund sells must be listed on a securities or commodities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, the automated quotation
              system of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. or traded in the over-the-counter market.
(3)      Each call the Fund writes must be "covered" while it is outstanding. That means the Fund must own the investment on which
              the call was written.

         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.

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

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

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

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

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

         |_| Writing Put Options. The Fund can sell put options on debt securities, broadly-based securities indices, futures, or
foreign currency options. A put option on securities gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer the obligation to buy, the
underlying investment at the exercise price during the option period. A put written on debt securities must be covered by segregated
liquid assets and the Fund cannot write puts if, as a result, more than 50% of the Fund's net assets would be required to be
segregated to cover such put options.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         When the Fund purchases a put, it pays a premium.  The Fund then has the right to sell the underlying investment to a seller
of a corresponding put on the same investment during the put period at a fixed exercise price.  Puts on municipal bond indices are
settled in cash.  Buying a put on a debt security, interest rate future or municipal bond index future the Fund owns enables it to
protect itself during the put period against a decline in the value of the underlying investment below the exercise price.

         If the market price of the underlying investment is equal to or above the exercise price and as a result the put is not
exercised or resold, the put will become worthless at its expiration date.  In that case the Fund will lose its premium payment and
the right to sell the underlying investment. A put may be sold prior to expiration (whether or not at a profit).

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


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

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

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

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

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

         The ordinary spreads between prices in the cash and futures markets are subject to distortions due to differences in the
natures of those markets.  All participants in the futures markets are subject to margin deposit and maintenance requirements.
Rather than meeting additional margin deposit requirements, investors may close out futures contracts through offsetting transactions
which could distort the normal relationship between the cash and futures markets.  From the point of view of speculators, the deposit
requirements in the futures markets are less onerous than margin requirements in the securities markets.  Therefore, increased
participation by speculators in the futures markets may cause temporary price distortions.

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

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

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

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

         The Fund will enter into swap transactions with appropriate counterparties pursuant to master netting agreements.  A master
netting agreement provides that all swaps done between the Fund and that counterparty under the master agreement shall be regarded as
parts of an integral agreement. If on any date amounts are payable under one or more swap transactions, the net amount payable on
that date shall be paid.  In addition, the master netting agreement may provide that if one party defaults generally or on one swap,
the counterparty may terminate the swaps with that party.  Under master netting agreements, if there is a default resulting in a loss
to one party, that party's damages are calculated by reference to the average cost of a replacement swap with respect to each swap.
The gains and losses on all swaps are then netted, and the result is the counterparty's gain or loss on termination. The termination
of all swaps and the netting of gains and losses on termination is generally referred to as "aggregation."

          |_|  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. Consequently registered
investment companies may engage in unlimited futures transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund claims an exclusion from
regulation as a commodity pool operator. The Fund has claimed such an exclusion from registration as a commodity pool operator under
the Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Fund may use futures and options for hedging and non-hedging purposes to the extent
consistent with its investment objective, internal risk management guidelines adopted by the Fund's investment advisor (as they may
be amended from time to time), and as otherwise set forth in the Fund's prospectus or this statement of additional information.

         Transactions in options by the Fund are subject to limitations  established by the option  exchanges.  The exchanges limit the
maximum  number of options  that may be written or held by a single  investor or group of  investors  acting in concert.  Those  limits
apply  regardless  of whether the options were written or  purchased  on the same or  different  exchanges,  or are held in one or more
accounts or through one or more  different  exchanges  or through one or more  brokers.  Thus,  the number of options that the Fund may
write or hold may be affected by options  written or held by other  entities,  including  other  investment  companies  having the same
adviser as the Fund (or an adviser that is an affiliate of the Fund's  adviser).  The exchanges also impose  position limits on futures
transactions.  An exchange  may order the  liquidation  of positions  found to be in  violation of those limits and may impose  certain
other sanctions.

         Under  interpretations  of staff members of the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  regarding  applicable  provisions of the
Investment  Company Act, when the Fund  purchases an interest rate future or municipal  bond index future,  it must  segregate  cash or
readily  marketable  short-term  debt  instruments  in an amount equal to the  purchase  price of the future,  less the margin  deposit
applicable to it.  The account must be a segregated account or accounts held by its custodian bank.

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

              |_|   short-term municipal securities;
              |_| obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities;
              |_| corporate debt securities rated within the three highest grades by a nationally recognized rating agency;
              |_| commercial paper rated "A-1" by S&P, or a comparable rating by another nationally recognized rating agency; and
              |_| certificates of deposit of domestic banks with assets of $1 billion or more.

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

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:

         |_| 67% or more of the shares  present or represented  by proxy at a shareholder  meeting,  if the holders of more than 50% of
         the outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or
         |_| more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

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

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

         |_| The Fund cannot  concentrate its investments to the extent of 25% of its total assets in any industry.  However,  there is
no  limitation  as to the Fund's  investments  in  municipal  securities  in general or in  Pennsylvania  municipal  securities,  or in
obligations issued by the U.S. Government and its agencies or instrumentalities.

         |_| The Fund  cannot  invest  in real  estate.  This  restriction  shall not  prevent  the Fund from  investing  in  municipal
securities or other permitted securities that are secured by real estate or interests in real estate.

         |_| The Fund cannot make loans except (a) by lending  portfolio  securities,  (b) through the purchase of debt  instruments or
similar  evidences  of  indebtedness,  (c) through  repurchase  agreements,  and (d) through an  interfund  lending  program with other
affiliated  funds.  No such loan may be made through  interfund  lending if, as a result,  the aggregate of those loans would exceed 33
1/3% of the value of the Fund's total assets (taken at market value at the time the loan is made).

         |_| The Fund cannot  borrow money or  securities  for any  purposes,  except that (a)  borrowing up to 10% of the Fund's total
assets from banks  and/or  affiliated  investment  companies as a temporary  measure for  extraordinary  or emergency  purposes and (b)
borrowing up to 5% of the Fund's total assets from banks for investment purposes, is permitted.

         |_| The Fund  cannot  underwrite  securities  of other  companies.  A  permitted  exception  is in case it is  deemed to be an
underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933 when reselling any securities held in its own portfolio.

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

|_|      The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal securities.

         |_| The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus  borrowings  for  investment  purposes)  in  Pennsylvania  municipal
securities.  This includes securities that generate income subject to the alternative minimum tax.

         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.

         |X| Does The Fund Have Other Restrictions That Are Not Fundamental Policies?

         The Fund has several additional  restrictions on its investment  policies that are not fundamental,  which means that they can
be changed by the Board of Trustees,  without  obtaining  shareholder  approval,  except that with  respect to the first policy  stated
below,  the Board of Trustees  would not permit this policy to be changed to permit  investments  in physical  commodities or commodity
contracts without the vote of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities:

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

         |_| The Fund can  pledge,  mortgage  or  otherwise  encumber,  transfer  or  assign  its  assets to  secure  borrowings  by or
indebtedness  of the Fund. In addition,  the use of escrow or other  collateral  arrangements in connection with borrowings and hedging
instruments is permitted.

         |_| The Fund cannot purchase  securities other than hedging  instruments on margin.  However,  the Fund may obtain  short-term
credits that may be necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities.

         |_| The Fund cannot sell securities short.

         |_| The Fund cannot buy or sell futures contracts other than interest rate futures and municipal bond index futures.

         |_| The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets in securities  which are restricted as to  disposition  under the
federal securities laws, except that the Fund may purchase without regard to this limitation  restricted  securities which are eligible
for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933.

         |_| The Fund cannot invest in the securities of other  registered  investment  companies or registered unit investment  trusts
in reliance on sub-paragraph (F) or (G) of section 12(d)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

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

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

         The  identification  of the issuer of a municipal  security  depends on the terms and  conditions  of the  security.  When the
assets and revenues of an agency,  authority,  instrumentality or other political subdivision are separate from those of the government
creating it and the security is backed only by the assets and revenues of the subdivision,  agency,  authority or instrumentality,  the
latter would be deemed to be the sole issuer.  Similarly,  if an industrial  development bond is backed only by the assets and revenues
of the  non-governmental  user,  then  that user  would be  deemed to be the sole  issuer.  However,  if in  either  case the  creating
government or some other entity  guarantees a security,  the guarantee would be considered a separate  security and would be treated as
an issue of such government or other entity.

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

         In implementing the Fund's policy not to concentrate its  investments,  the Manager will consider a  non-governmental  user of
facilities  financed  by  industrial  development  bonds as being in a  particular  industry.  That is done even  though  the bonds are
municipal  securities,  as to  which  the  Fund  has no  concentration  limitation.  Although  this  application  of the  concentration
restriction is not a fundamental policy of the Fund, it will not be changed without  shareholder  approval.  The Manager has no present
intention of investing  more than 25% of the Fund's total assets in securities  paying  interest from revenues of similar type projects
or in industrial  development  bonds.  This is not a fundamental  policy and therefore could be changed without  shareholder  approval.
However,  if that change were made, the Prospectus or this Statement of Additional  Information  would be  supplemented  to reflect the
change.

How the Fund Is Managed

Organization and History.  The Trust was originally  organized in 1989 as a Massachusetts  business trust having one series,  the Fund.
In 1993 the Trust was reorganized to be a multi-series  business trust (now called Oppenheimer  Multi-State  Municipal Trust). The Fund
became a separate  series of that Trust.  The Fund is an  open-end,  non-diversified  management  investment  company with an unlimited
number of authorized  shares of beneficial  interest.  Each of the three (3) series of the Trust is a separate fund that issues its own
shares, has its own investment portfolio, and has its own assets and liabilities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         The members of the Governance Committee are Phillip Griffiths (Chairman), Kenneth Randall and Russell S. Reynolds, Jr.  The
Governance Committee held 7 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2004. The Governance Committee reviews the Fund's
governance guidelines, the adequacy of the Fund's Codes of Ethics, and develops qualification criteria for Board members consistent
with the Fund's governance guidelines, among other duties set forth in the Committee's charter.

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

Trustees and Officers of the Fund. Each of the Trustees is an "Independent Trustee" under the Investment Company Act. The Fund's
Trustees and officers, their positions with the Fund, length of service in such position(s) and principal occupations and business
affiliations during the past five years are listed in the chart below. The information for each Trustee also includes the dollar
range of shares beneficially owned in the Fund and 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 each of the following publicly offered
Oppenheimer funds (referred to as "Board I Funds").

Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals                               Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund
Oppenheimer AMT-Free New York Municipals                      Oppenheimer Growth Fund
Oppenheimer Balanced Fund                                     Oppenheimer International Growth Fund
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund                         Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund
Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund                         Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund                         Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income Trust
Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund                           Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund                       Oppenheimer New Jersey Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Discovery Fund                                    Oppenheimer Pennsylvania Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Emerging Growth Fund                              Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals
Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund                        Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund                                   Oppenheimer U.S. Government Trust
Oppenheimer Global Fund                                       Oppenheimer Value Fund
Oppenheimer Global Opportunities Fund

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

         Messrs. Fielding, Murphy, Petersen, Vandehey, Vottiero, Wixted, Zack and Fielding, and Mses. Bloomberg and Ives respectively
hold the same offices with one or more of the other Board I Funds as with the Fund.  As of August 31, 2004, the Trustees and officers
of the Fund, as a group, owned of record or beneficially less than 1% of each class of shares of the Fund.  The foregoing statement
does not reflect ownership of shares of the Fund held of record by an employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than
the shares beneficially owned under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above. In addition, each Independent Trustee, and his
or her family members, do not own securities of either the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or any person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Manager or Distributor.

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

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

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

Messrs.  Levy and Lipstein and Ms.  Moynihan  retired as Trustees from Board I effective  January 1, 2003,  March 31, 2003 and July 31,
2003,  respectively.  For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, Ms.  Moynihan  received  received $129 aggregate  compensation  from the
Fund.  For the calendar  year ended  December 31, 2003,  Messrs.  Levy and Lipstein  and Ms.  Moynihan  received  $43,425,  $75,076 and
$88,229, respectively, of total compensation from all of the Oppenheimer funds for which they served as trustees.
1.       Aggregate Compensation From Fund includes fees and deferred compensation, if any, for a Trustee.
2.       Estimated  Annual  Retirement  Benefits to be Paid Upon  Retirement is based on a straight life payment plan election with the
     assumption  that a Trustee  will retire at the age of 75 and is eligible  (after 7 years of  service) to receive  retirement  plan
     benefits as described below under "Retirement Plan for Trustees."
3.       Includes $564 deferred by Mr. Yeutter under the Deferred Compensation Plan described below.
4.       Includes  $36,990  estimated to be paid to Mr. Galli for serving as a trustee or director of 10 other  Oppenheimer  funds that
     are not Board I Funds.
5.       Includes  $96,000  paid to Mr.  Galli for serving as trustee or director  of 10 other  Oppenheimer  funds that are not Board I

7.       Includes $719 deferred by Mr. Motley under the Deferred Compensation Plan described below.
8.       Mr. Spiro retired as a Trustee of all the Board I funds effective October 31, 2004.

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

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

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

         |X| Major  Shareholders.  As of August 31,  2004,  the only  persons  who owned of record or who were known by the Fund to own
beneficially 5% or more of any class of the Fund's outstanding shares, and their holdings of the as of the date, were the following:

         MLPF&S for the sole benefit of its customers,  Attn. Fund  ADMN/#97HF6,  4800 Deer Lake Drive East Floor 3,  Jacksonville,  FL
32246-6484, which owned 544,321.378 Class C shares (8.33% of the Class C shares then outstanding) for the benefit of its customers.

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

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

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

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

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

              The Fund is required to file new Form N-PX,  with its complete  proxy voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no
later than August 31st of each year.  The Fund's Form N-PX filing is available (i) without  charge,  upon request,  by calling the Fund
toll-free at  1.800.525-7048 and (ii) on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

         The Fund seeks to obtain prompt execution of orders at the most favorable net prices.  In an option transaction, the Fund
ordinarily uses the same broker for the purchase or sale of the option and any transaction in the investment to which the option
relates.  Other funds advised by the Manager have investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund.  Those other funds
may purchase or sell the same securities as the Fund at the same time as the Fund, which could affect the supply and price of the
securities.  When possible, the Manager tries to combine concurrent orders to purchase or sell the same security by more than one of
the accounts managed by the Manager or its affiliates.  The transactions under those combined orders are averaged as to price and
allocated in accordance with the purchase or sale orders actually placed for each account.

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

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

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

In the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, there were no transactions  directed to brokers for research services,  and the
amount of the  commissions  paid to  broker-dealers  for those services was $0. As explained  above, in the fiscal years ended July 31,
2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively, the Fund did not pay any brokerage commissions.

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:

         For  additional  information  about  distribution  of the  Fund's  shares,  including  fees  and  expenses,  please  refer  to
"Distribution and Service Plans."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004 payments under the Class A plan totaled $296,350, all of which all was paid by the
Distributor to recipients, and included $15,720 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's parent company. Any unreimbursed expenses
the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares for any fiscal year may not be recovered in subsequent years. The Distributor
may not use payments received under the Class A plan to pay any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, other financial costs, or
allocation of overhead.

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

Each plan permits the Distributor to retain both the asset-based sales charges and the service fee on shares or to pay recipients the
service fee on a quarterly basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor currently intends to pay the service fee to
recipients in advance for the first year after Class B and Class C shares are purchased. After the first year shares are outstanding,
after their purchase, the Distributor makes service fee payments quarterly on those shares. The advance payment is based on the net
asset value of shares sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for the advance service fee payment. If Class B or Class C
shares are redeemed during the first year after their purchase, the recipient of the service fees on those shares will be obligated
to repay the Distributor a pro rata portion of the advance payment made on those shares.

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

         The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B shares. The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge
on Class C shares during the first year the shares are outstanding. It pays the asset-based sales charge as an ongoing concession to
the recipient on Class C shares outstanding for a year or more. If a dealer has a special agreement with the Distributor, the
Distributor will pay the Class B and/or Class C service fee and the asset-based sales charge to the dealer quarterly in lieu of
paying the sales concession and service fee in advance at the time of purchase.

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

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

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

Class B or Class C shares may not be purchased by an investor directly from the Distributor without the investor designating another
broker-dealer of record.  If the investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an existing account, the Distributor is
automatically designated as the broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the investor's agent to purchase the
shares.  In those cases, the Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge paid on Class B and Class C shares, but does not retain
any service fees as to the assets represented by that account.

Performance of the Fund

Explanation of Performance Terminology. The Fund uses a variety of terms to illustrate its performance. These terms include
"standardized yield," "tax-equivalent yield," "dividend yield," "average annual total return," "cumulative total return," "average
annual total return at net asset value" and "total return at net asset value." An explanation of how yields and total returns are
calculated is set forth below. The charts below show the Fund's performance as of its most recent fiscal year end. You can obtain
current performance information by calling the Fund's Transfer Agent at 1.800.525-7048 or by visiting the OppenheimerFunds Internet
website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

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

         Use of standardized performance calculations enables an investor to compare the Fund's performance to the performance of
other funds for the same periods.  However, a number of factors should be considered before using the Fund's performance information
as a basis for comparison with other investments:
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, and 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.
         Yields and total returns for any given past period represent historical performance information and are not, and should not
be considered, a prediction of future yields or returns.


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

         |X| 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 thirty (30) day period.  It is not based on actual distributions paid by the Fund to shareholders in the thirty (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:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                           [OBJECT OMITTED]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
         The symbols above represent the following factors:
         a =   dividends and interest earned during the thirty (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 thirty (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 and Class C shares is the net asset value per share, without considering the effect of contingent deferred sales
charges.  The Class A dividend yield may also be quoted without deducting the maximum initial sales charge.

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

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

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

         |X| Total Return Information. There are 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, 10 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 4.75% (as a percentage of the offering
price) is deducted from the initial investment ("P" in the formula below) (unless the return is shown without sales charge, as
described below). For Class B shares, payment of the applicable contingent deferred sales charge is applied, depending on the period
for which the return is 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.

         |_| 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:

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

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

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

         |_|  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:
         |_| 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.

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

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

         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.

         |_|  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.

|X|      Right of Accumulation. To qualify for the lower sales charge rates that apply to larger purchases of Class A shares, you and
your spouse can add together:
o        Class A and Class B shares you purchase for your individual accounts (including IRAs and 403(b) plans), or for your joint
                  accounts, or for trust or custodial accounts on behalf of your children who are minors,
o        Current purchases of Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds to reduce the sales charge rate that
                  applies to current purchases of Class A shares, and
o        Class A and Class B shares of Oppenheimer funds you previously purchased subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales
                  charge to reduce the sales charge rate for current purchases of Class A shares, provided that you still hold your
                  investment in one of the Oppenheimer funds.

         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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

To access account documents electronically via eDocs Direct, please visit the Service Center on our website at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.888.470.0862 for instructions.

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

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

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

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

o        Long-term debt securities having a remaining maturity in excess of 60 days are valued based on the mean between the "bid"
and "asked" prices determined by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from
two active market makers in the security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.
o        The following securities are valued at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices determined by a pricing service
approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the security on the basis of
reasonable inquiry:
(1)      debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when issued,
(2)      debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
(3)      non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of
                      60 days or less.
o        The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts:
(1)      money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a maturity of less than 397 days when issued that have
                      a remaining maturity of 60 days or less, and
(2)      debt instruments held by a money market fund that have a remaining maturity of 397 days or less.

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

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

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

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

How to Sell Shares

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

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

         In choosing to take advantage of the Checkwriting privilege, by signing the account application or by completing a
Checkwriting card, each individual who signs:
(1)      for individual accounts, represents that they are the registered owner(s) of the shares of the Fund in that account;
(2)      for accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts and other entities, represents that they are an officer, general
                partner, trustee or other fiduciary or agent, as applicable, duly authorized to act on behalf of the registered
                owner(s);
(3)      authorizes the Fund, its Transfer Agent and any bank through which the Fund's drafts (checks) are payable to pay all checks
                drawn on the Fund account of such person(s) and to redeem a sufficient amount of shares from that account to cover
                payment of each check;
(4)      specifically acknowledges that if they choose to permit checks to be honored if there is a single signature on checks drawn
                against joint accounts, or accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts or other entities, the signature of any one
                signatory on a check will be sufficient to authorize payment of that check and redemption from the account, even if
                that account is registered in the names of more than one person or more than one authorized signature appears on the
                Checkwriting card or the application, as applicable;
(5)      understands that the Checkwriting privilege may be terminated or amended at any time by the Fund and/or the Fund's bank; and
(6)      acknowledges and agrees that neither the Fund nor its bank shall incur any liability for that amendment or termination of
                checkwriting privileges or for redeeming shares to pay checks reasonably believed by them to be genuine, or for
                returning or not paying checks that have not been accepted for any reason.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         |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.

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

         The Transfer Agent will administer the investor's Automatic Withdrawal Plan as agent for the shareholder(s) (the
"Planholder") who executed the plan authorization and application submitted to the Transfer Agent. Neither the 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 Y shares of Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund may not be exchanged for shares of any other fund.
o        Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are generally available only by exchange from the same
         class of shares of other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k) plans.

         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).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


o        When Class B or Class C 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 or Class C contingent deferred sales charge will be followed in determining the order in
which the shares are exchanged. Before exchanging shares, shareholders should take into account how the exchange may affect any
contingent deferred sales charge that might be imposed in the subsequent redemption of remaining shares.

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|X|      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.

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

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

         A portion of the exempt-interest dividends paid by the Fund may be an item of tax preference for shareholders subject to the
federal alternative minimum tax. The amount of any dividends attributable to tax preference items for purposes of the alternative
minimum tax will be identified when tax information is distributed by the Fund.

         A shareholder receiving a dividend from income earned by the Fund from one or more of the following sources must treat the
dividend as ordinary income in the computation of the shareholder's gross income, regardless of whether the dividend is reinvested:
(1)      certain taxable temporary investments (such as certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, commercial paper and
              obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities);
(2)      income from securities loans;
(3)      income or gains from options or futures,
(4)      any net short-term capital gain; and
         (5)  any market discount amortization on tax-exempt bonds.

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

         Shares of the Fund will be exempt from Pennsylvania county personal property taxes to the extent that on the annual
assessment date the Fund's portfolio securities consist of :
o        Pennsylvania municipal securities,
o        obligations of the U.S. government (and certain qualifying obligations of  governments of U.S. territories, agencies and
              instrumentalities), and
o        certain other obligations that are not subject to such personal property taxes.

         To the extent that distributions paid by the Fund are derived from interest on Pennsylvania municipal securities, qualifying
obligations of the U.S. government and certain qualifying obligations of governments of U.S. territories, agencies and
instrumentalities, those distributions will also be exempt from Pennsylvania personal income tax, and in the case of residents of
Philadelphia, exempt from the investment income tax of the School District of Philadelphia. Distributions from the Fund attributable
to income from sources other than those will generally be subject to Pennsylvania personal income tax.

         Corporations that are subject to the Pennsylvania corporate net income tax will not be subject to tax on distributions
received from the Fund provided that such distributions are not included in federal taxable income determined before net operating
loss deductions and special deductions.  As a result of a pronouncement by the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue, an investment in
the Fund by a corporate shareholder will apparently qualify as an exempt asset for purposes of the single asset apportionment
fraction available in computing the Pennsylvania capital stock/foreign franchise tax to the extent that the Fund's portfolio
securities comprise investments in Pennsylvania and/or U.S. government securities that would be exempt assets if owned directly by
the corporation.

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

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

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

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

|X|      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.

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

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

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

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

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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

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

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2004, by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies
from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

      In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer Pennsylvania Municipal Fund as of July 31, 2004, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of
the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.

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

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

Oppenheimer Pennsylvania Municipal Fund (the Fund) is a separate series of
Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust, a non-diversified, open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Fund's investment objective is to seek as high a level of current
interest income exempt from federal and Pennsylvania personal income taxes as is
available from municipal securities, consistent with preservation of capital.
The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).

      The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class A shares are
sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end
sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales
charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). All
classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to
the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that
class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due
to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder
servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to
that class. Class A, B and C have separate distribution and/or service plans.
Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the
date of purchase.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES VALUATION. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as
of the close of The New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange), normally 4:00 P.M.
Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for business. Securities listed
or traded on National Stock Exchanges or other domestic or foreign exchanges are
valued based on the last sale price of the security traded on that exchange
prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. Securities traded on NASDAQ
are valued based on the closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the time when
the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued
at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of
the closing bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price.
Corporate, government and municipal debt instruments having a remaining maturity
in excess of 60 days and all mortgage-backed securities will be valued at the
mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices. Securities may be valued primarily
using dealer-supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service authorized by
the Board of Trustees. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value.
Foreign and domestic securities whose values have been materially affected by
what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund's
assets are valued but after the close of their respective exchanges will be fair
valued. Fair value is determined in good faith using consistently applied
procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money
market type" debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are
valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).


                   34| OPPENHEIMER PENNSYLVANIA MUNICIPAL FUND


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVERSE FLOATING RATE SECURITIES. The Fund invests in inverse floating rate
securities that pay interest at a rate that varies inversely with short-term
interest rates. Certain of these securities may be leveraged, whereby the
interest rate varies inversely at a multiple of the change in short-term rates.
As interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce less current income. The price
of such securities is more volatile than comparable fixed rate securities. The
Fund intends to invest no more than 20% of its total assets in inverse floaters.
Inverse floaters amount to $35,211,481 as of July 31, 2004. Including the effect
of leverage, inverse floaters represent 19.86% of the Fund's total assets as of
July 31, 2004.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITY CREDIT RISK. The Fund invests in high-yield securities, which may be
subject to a greater degree of credit risk, market fluctuations and loss of
income and principal, and may be more sensitive to economic conditions than
lower-yielding, higher-rated fixed-income securities. The Fund may acquire
securities in default, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose
issuers subsequently default. As of July 31, 2004, securities with an aggregate
market value of $1,039,156, representing 0.22% of the Fund's net assets, were in
default.

      There are certain risks arising from geographic concentration in any
state. Certain revenue or tax related events in a state may impair the ability
of certain issuers of municipal securities to pay principal and interest on
their obligations.

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

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

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

                                                                  NET UNREALIZED

of the capital loss carryforwards were as follows:

2. As of July 31, 2004, the Fund had $1,290,115 of post-October losses available
to offset future realized capital gains, if any. Such losses, if unutilized,
will expire in 2013.

3. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, the Fund utilized $759,465 of
capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.

4. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003, the Fund utilized $2,261,627 of
capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.

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

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended July 31, 2004 and
July 31, 2003 was as follows:

                                         YEAR ENDED          YEAR ENDED

The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of
unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes as of July 31, 2004 are noted below. The primary
difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and

or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for the
Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees
paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended July 31,
2004, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by $8,835 and
payments of $3,033 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an accumulated
liability of $32,063 as of July 31, 2004.


                  36 | OPPENHEIMER PENNSYLVANIA MUNICIPAL FUND


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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT INCOME. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and
amortization of premium, is accrued as earned.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENT. The reduction of custodian fees, if applicable,
represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund.

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

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

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

The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of no par value shares of beneficial
interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as

and $153,917,375, respectively.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

MANAGEMENT FEES. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee at an
annual rate of 0.60% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets,
0.55% of the next $100 million, 0.50% of the next $200 million, 0.45% of the
next $250 million, 0.40% of the next $250 million, and 0.35% of average annual
net assets in excess of $1 billion.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays
OFS a per account fee. For the year ended July 31, 2004, the Fund paid $237,867
to OFS for services to the Fund.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SERVICE PLAN FOR CLASS A SHARES. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for
services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made
quarterly at an annual rate of up to 0.15% of the average annual net assets of
Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to
pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly for
providing personal services and maintenance of accounts of


                  38 | OPPENHEIMER PENNSYLVANIA MUNICIPAL FUND


their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the
Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be
recovered in subsequent years. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are
detailed in the Statement of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS FOR CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES. The Fund has
adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and Class C shares to
compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution
of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the plans, the Fund pays the
Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B and
Class C shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of up to 0.15% per
year under each plan. If either the Class B or Class C plan is terminated by the
Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its
independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled to
payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or asset-based
sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date of such
termination. The Distributor's aggregate uncompensated expenses under the plan
at July 31, 2004 for Class B and Class C shares were $5,275,705 and $1,021,576,
respectively. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plans are detailed in the
Statement of Operations.

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

and shareholder servicing agent fees for all classes to 0.35% of average annual
net assets per class.  During the year ended July 31, 2004, OFS waived $642, $36
and $60 for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively. This undertaking
may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. ILLIQUID SECURITIES

As of July 31, 2004, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available
market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
Fund will not invest more than 15% of its net assets (determined at the time of
purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. The aggregate value
of illiquid securities subject to this limitation as of July 31, 2004 was
$35,211,481, which represents 7.60% of the Fund's net assets.

6. BANK BORROWINGS

The Fund may borrow up to one third of its total assets from a bank to purchase
portfolio securities, to meet redemption obligations or for temporary and
emergency purposes. The purchase of securities with borrowed funds creates
leverage in the Fund. The Fund has entered into an agreement which enables it to
participate with certain other Oppenheimer funds in a committed, unsecured line
of credit with a bank, which permits borrowings up to $540 million,
collectively. Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a
rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75%. The Fund also pays a commitment
fee equal to its pro rata share of the average unutilized amount of the credit
facility at a rate of 0.09% per annum.

      The Fund had borrowings outstanding of $14,600,000 at July 31, 2004 at an
interest rate of 2.12%. For the year ended July 31, 2004, the average monthly
loan balance was $18,095,873 at an average daily interest rate of 1.777%. The
Fund had gross borrowings and gross loan repayments of $143,200,000 and
$148,800,000, respectively, during the year ended July 31, 2004. The maximum
amount of borrowings outstanding at any month-end was $24,900,000. The Fund paid
commitment fees of $3,680 and interest of $325,491 during the year ended July
31, 2004.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - LITIGATION

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

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

                                                              Appendix A

                                                  MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS DEFINITIONS

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

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's")
Municipal Ratings are opinions of the investment quality of issuers and issues in the U.S. municipal and tax-exempt markets. As such,
these ratings incorporate Moody's assessment of the default probability and loss severity of these issuers and issues.

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

MUNICIPAL LONG-TERM RATING DEFINITIONS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 in each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates
that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid- range ranking; and the
modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

N.R. Not rated.

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

Bond Investment Quality Standards

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.





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

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.






                              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

ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

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

      The Fund does not make investments with the objective of seeking
capital growth, since that would be inconsistent with its goal of seeking tax
exempt income.  However, the values of the securities held by the Fund may be
affected by changes in general interest rates and other factors, prior to
their maturity.  Because the current value of debt securities vary inversely
with changes in prevailing interest rates, if interest rates increased after
a security is purchased, that security will normally decline in value.
Conversely, should interest rates decrease after a security is purchased,
normally its value will rise.

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

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

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

      |X| Municipal Bonds.  The Fund has classified municipal securities
having a maturity (when the security is issued) of more than one (1) year as
"municipal bonds."  The principal classifications of long-term municipal
bonds are "general obligation" and "revenue" (including "industrial
development") bonds.  They may have fixed, variable or floating rates of
interest, as described below.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      Interest on certain private activity bonds issued after August 7, 1986,
which continues to be tax-exempt, will be treated as a tax preference item
subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (discussed below) to which
certain taxpayers are subject.  The Fund may hold municipal securities the
interest on which (and thus a proportionate share of the exempt-interest
dividends paid by the Fund) will be subject to the Federal alternative
minimum tax on individuals and corporations.  There are no limits on the
amount of assets the Fund may invest in private activity securities.

      The Federal alternative minimum tax is designed to ensure that all
persons who receive income pay some tax, even if their regular tax is zero.
This is accomplished in part by including in taxable income certain tax
preference items that are used to calculate alternative minimum taxable
income.  The Tax Reform Act made tax-exempt interest from certain private
activity bonds a tax preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum
tax on individuals and corporations.  Any exempt-interest dividend paid by a
regulated investment company will be treated as interest on a specific
private activity bond to the extent of the proportionate relationship the
interest the investment company receives on such bonds bears to all its
exempt interest dividends.

      In addition, corporate taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax
may, under some circumstances, have to include exempt-interest dividends in
calculating their alternative minimum taxable income.  That could occur in
situations where the "adjusted current earnings" of the corporation exceeds
its alternative minimum taxable income.

      To determine whether a municipal security is treated as a taxable
private activity bond, it is subject to a test for: (a) a trade or business
use and security interest, or (b) a private loan restriction.  Under the
trade or business use and security interest test, an obligation is a private
activity bond if: (i) more than 10% of the bond proceeds are used for private
business purposes and (ii) 10% or more of the payment of principal or
interest on the issue is directly or indirectly derived from such private use
or is secured by the privately used property or the payments related to the
use of the property. For certain types of uses, a 5% threshold is substituted
for this 10% threshold.

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

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

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

      |X| Municipal Notes.  Municipal securities having a maturity (when the
security is issued) of less than one (1) year are generally known as
municipal notes.  Municipal notes generally are used to provide for
short-term working capital needs.  Some of the types of municipal notes the
Fund can invest in are described below.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      |_| the frequency of trades and price quotations for such securities;
      |_| the number of dealers or other potential buyers willing to purchase
      or sell such securities;
      |_| the availability of market-makers; and
      |_| the nature of the trades for such securities.

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

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

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

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

      Lower grade securities (often referred to as "junk bonds") may have a
higher yield than securities rated in the higher rating categories.  In
addition to having a greater risk of default than higher-grade securities,
there may be less of a market for these securities.  As a result they may be
harder to sell at an acceptable price.  The additional risks mean that the
Fund may not receive the anticipated level of income from these securities,
and the Fund's net asset value may be affected by declines in the value of
lower-grade securities. While securities rated "Baa" by Moody's or "BBB" by
S&P are investment grade, they may be subject to special risks and have some
speculative characteristics.

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

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

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

      |X|  Municipal Debt Securities. The Fund can invest in a variety of
municipal debt securities to seek its objective. Municipal debt securities
are subject to different types of risk, including credit risk and interest
rate risk.

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

      The Fund's debt investments mainly include high yield,
non-investment-grade municipal bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").
Investment-grade municipal bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's,
at least "BBB" by S&P or Fitch 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 credit-worthiness.  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.

            |_|  Interest Rate Risk.  Interest rate risk refers to the
fluctuations in value of debt securities resulting from the inverse
relationship between price and yield.  For example, an increase in general
interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already-issued debt
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.

            |_|  Special Risks of Lower-Grade Municipal Securities.  The Fund
can invest without limit in lower-grade debt securities, and the Fund will
normally invest at least 50% to 70% of its net assets in these securities to
seek the Fund's main objective.  Lower-grade securities (often referred to as
"junk bonds") 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, 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 can invest
in securities rated as low as "C" or "D" or which may be 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.

      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 S&P or Fitch are
investment grade and are not regarded as junk bonds, those securities may be
subject to special risks, and have some speculative characteristics.
Definitions of the debt security ratings categories of 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 them.

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

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

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

      The interest rate on a floating rate demand note is based on a stated
prevailing market rate, such as a bank's prime rate, the ninety-one (91) day
U.S. Treasury Bill rate, or some other standard, and is adjusted
automatically each time such rate is adjusted.  The interest rate on a
variable rate demand note is also based on a stated prevailing market rate
but is adjusted automatically at specified intervals of not less than one (1)
year.  Generally, the changes in the interest rate on such securities reduce
the fluctuation in their market value.  As interest rates decrease or
increase, the potential for capital appreciation or depreciation is less than
that for fixed-rate obligations of the same maturity.
      The Manager may determine that an unrated floating rate or variable
rate demand obligation meets the Fund's quality standards by reason of being
backed by a letter of credit or guarantee issued by a bank that meets those
quality standards.

      Floating rate and variable rate demand notes that have a stated
maturity in excess of one (1) year may have features that permit the holder
to recover the principal amount of the underlying security at specified
intervals not exceeding one (1) year and upon no more than thirty (30) days'
notice.  The issuer of that type of note normally has a corresponding right
in its discretion, after a given period, to prepay the outstanding principal
amount of the note plus accrued interest.  Generally the issuer must provide
a specified number of days' notice to the holder.  Floating rate or variable
rate obligations that do not provide for the recovery of principal and
interest within seven (7) days are subject to the Fund's limitations on
investments in illiquid securities.

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

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

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

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

      When such transactions are negotiated the price (which is generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made.
Delivery and payment for the securities take place at a later date.  Normally
the settlement date is within six (6) months of the purchase of municipal
bonds and notes.  However, the Fund may, from time to time, purchase
municipal securities having a settlement date more than six (6) months and
possibly as long as two (2) years or more after the trade date. The
securities are subject to change in value from market fluctuation during the
settlement period.  The value at delivery may be less than the purchase
price.  For example, changes in interest rates in a direction other than that
expected by the Manager before settlement will affect the value of such
securities and may cause loss to the Fund.  No income begins to accrue to the
Fund on a when-issued security until the Fund receives the security at
settlement of the trade.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      The majority of these transactions run from day to day. Delivery
pursuant to resale typically will occur within one (1) to five (5) days of
the purchase.  Repurchase agreements having a maturity beyond seven (7) days
are subject to the Fund's limits on holding illiquid investments. There is no
limit on the amount of the Fund's net assets that may be subject to
repurchase agreements of seven (7) days or less.

      Repurchase agreements, considered "loans" under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act"), are collateralized by the underlying
security.  The Fund's repurchase agreements require that at all times while
the repurchase agreement is in effect, the collateral's value must equal or
exceed the repurchase price to fully collateralize the repayment obligation.

      The Manager will monitor the vendor's creditworthiness to confirm that
the vendor is financially sound and will continuously monitor the
collateral's value.  However, if the vendor fails to pay the resale price on
the delivery date, the Fund may incur costs in disposing of the collateral
and may experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to do so.

      Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the 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| 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 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.

      |X| Illiquid and Restricted Securities.  The Fund has percentage
limitations that apply to purchases of illiquid and restricted securities, as
stated in the Prospectus.  The Manager monitors holdings of illiquid and
restricted securities on an ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any
holdings to maintain adequate liquidity.

      |X| Borrowing for Leverage.  The Investment Company Act imposes certain
restrictions on the borrowing activities of mutual funds.  The restrictions
on borrowing are designed to protect shareholders and their investment in a
fund by limiting a fund's ability to leverage its assets.  Leverage exists
when a fund has the right to a return on an investment that exceeds the
amount the fund contributed to the investment.  Borrowing money to make an
investment is an example of how a fund leverages its assets.  The use of
leverage exposes shareholders and their investments in a fund to a greater
risk of loss.  For example, borrowing may cause the value of a fund's shares
to be more volatile than if the fund did not borrow.  A fund may not deviate
from its borrowing policy unless authorized by the vote of a "majority of its
outstanding voting securities" as defined in the Investment Company Act.
Currently, under the Investment Company Act, a mutual fund may borrow only
from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow is up to one-third of its
total assets (including the amount borrowed) less all liabilities and
indebtedness other than borrowing.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
the Fund may also borrow up to 5% of its total assets for temporary purposes
from any person.  Under the Investment Company Act, there is a rebuttable
presumption that a loan is temporary if it is repaid within 60 days and not
extended or renewed. If the value of the Fund's assets fails to meet the 300%
asset coverage (i.e., up to one-third of its total assets) requirement, the
Fund is required to reduce its bank debt within three (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.

      In addition, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC to
Citicorp North America, Inc. ("Citicorp"), the Fund also has the ability to
borrow, subject to the limits established by its investment policies, from
commercial paper and medium-term note conduits administered by Citicorp that
issue promissory notes to fund loans to investment companies such as the
Fund. These loans may be secured by assets of the Fund, so long as the Fund's
policies permit it to pledge its assets to secure a debt. Liquidity support
for these loans will be provided by banks obligated to make loans to the Fund
in the event the conduit or conduits are unable or unwilling to make such
loans. The Fund will have the right to prepay such loans and terminate its
participation in the conduit loan facility at any time upon prior notice. As
a borrower under a conduit loan facility, the Fund maintains rights and
remedies under state and federal law comparable to those it would maintain
with respect to a loan from a bank.

       |X| Loans of Portfolio Securities. To attempt to raise income or raise
cash for liquidity purposes, the Fund may lend its portfolio securities to
brokers, dealers and other financial institutions approved by the Fund's
Board of Trustees.  These loans are limited to not more than 25% of the value
of the Fund's total assets. Income from securities loans does not constitute
exempt-interest income for the purpose of paying tax-exempt dividends.

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

      When it lends securities, the Fund receives amounts equal to the
dividends or interest on the loaned securities.  It also receives one or more
of (a) negotiated loan fees, (b) interest on securities used as collateral,
and (c) interest on short-term debt securities purchased with the loan
collateral.  Either type of interest may be shared with the borrower.  The
Fund may pay reasonable finder's, custodian and administrative or other fees
in connection with these loans.  The terms of the Fund's loans must meet
applicable tests under the Internal Revenue Code and must permit the Fund to
reacquire loaned securities on five (5) days' notice or in time to vote on
any important matter.

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

      |_| sell interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures,
      |_| buy puts on such futures or securities, or
      |_| write covered calls on securities, broadly-based municipal bond
      indices, interest rate futures or municipal bond index futures.

      The Fund can also write covered calls on debt securities to attempt to
increase the Fund's income, but that income would not be tax-exempt.
Therefore it is unlikely that the Fund would write covered calls for that
purpose.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      |_|  Writing Covered Call Options.  The Fund can write (that is, sell)
call options.  The Fund's call writing is subject to a number of
restrictions:
(1)   After the Fund writes a call, not more than 25% of the Fund's total
         assets may be subject to calls.
(2)   Calls the Fund sells must be listed on a securities or commodities
         exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, the automated quotation system of The
         Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. or traded in the over-the-counter market.
(3)   Each call the Fund writes must be "covered" while it is outstanding.
         That means the Fund must own the investment on which the call was
         written.

      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 (9) 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.

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

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

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

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

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

      |_| Writing Put Options. The Fund can sell put options on debt
securities, broadly-based securities indices, futures, or foreign currency
options. A put option on securities gives the purchaser the right to sell,
and the writer the obligation to buy, the underlying investment at the
exercise price during the option period. A put written on debt securities
must be covered by segregated liquid assets and the Fund cannot write puts
if, as a result, more than 50% of the Fund's net assets would be required to
be segregated to cover such put options.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      The ordinary spreads between prices in the cash and futures markets are
subject to distortions due to differences in the natures of those markets.
All participants in the futures markets are subject to margin deposit and
maintenance requirements.  Rather than meeting additional margin deposit
requirements, investors may close out futures contracts through offsetting
transactions which could distort the normal relationship between the cash and
futures markets.  From the point of view of speculators, the deposit
requirements in the futures markets are less onerous than margin requirements
in the securities markets.  Therefore, increased participation by speculators
in the futures markets may cause temporary price distortions.

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

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

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

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

      The Fund can enter into swap transactions with appropriate
counterparties pursuant to master netting agreements.  A master netting
agreement provides that all swaps done between the Fund and that counterparty
under the master agreement shall be regarded as parts of an integral
agreement.  If on any date amounts are payable under one or more swap
transactions, the net amount payable on that date shall be paid.  In
addition, the master netting agreement may provide that if one party defaults
generally or on one swap, the counterparty can terminate the swaps with that
party.  Under master netting agreements, if there is a default resulting in a
loss to one party, that party's damages are calculated by reference to the
average cost of a replacement swap with respect to each swap.  The gains and
losses on all swaps are then netted, and the result is the counterparty's
gain or loss on termination.  The termination of all swaps and the netting of
gains and losses on termination is generally referred to as "aggregation."

      |_| 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. Consequently, registered investment companies may engage in
unlimited futures transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund
claims an exclusion from regulation as a commodity pool operator. The Fund
has claimed such an exclusion from registration as a commodity pool operator
under the Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Fund may use futures and
options for hedging and non-hedging purposes to the extent consistent with
its investment objective, internal risk management guidelines adopted by the
Fund's investment advisor (as they may be amended from time to time), and as
otherwise set forth in the Fund's prospectus or this statement of additional
information.

      Transactions in options by the Fund are subject to limitations
established by the option exchanges.  The exchanges limit the maximum number
of options that may be written or held by a single investor or group of
investors acting in concert.  Those limits apply regardless of whether the
options were written or purchased on the same or different exchanges, or are
held in one or more accounts or through one or more different exchanges or
through one or more brokers.  Thus, the number of options that the Fund may
write or hold may be affected by options written or held by other entities,
including other investment companies having the same adviser as the Fund (or
an adviser that is an affiliate of the Fund's adviser).  The exchanges also
impose position limits on futures transactions.  An exchange may order the
liquidation of positions found to be in violation of those limits and may
impose certain other sanctions.

      Under interpretations of staff members of the Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act,
when the Fund purchases an interest rate future or municipal bond index
future, it must segregate cash or readily marketable short-term debt
instruments in an amount equal to the purchase price of the future, less the
margin deposit applicable to it. The account must be a segregated account or
accounts held by its custodian bank.

      |X| Temporary Defensive Investments. The securities the Fund can invest
in for temporary defensive purposes include the following:

            |_|  short-term municipal securities;
            |_| obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or
          its agencies or instrumentalities;
             |_| corporate debt securities rated within the three highest
          grades by a nationally recognized rating agency;
             |_| commercial paper rated "A-1" by S&P, or a comparable rating
          by another nationally recognized rating agency; and
             |_| certificates of deposit of domestic banks with assets of $1
          billion or more.

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

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:
      |_| 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at a
      shareholder meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding
      shares are present or represented by proxy, or
      |_| more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

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

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

      |_| The Fund cannot invest 25% or more of its total assets in any one
industry.  That limit does not apply to municipal securities in general, to
securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies and
instrumentalities or to securities issued by investment companies.

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

      |_| The Fund cannot invest in real estate. This restriction shall not
prevent the Fund from investing in municipal securities or other permitted
securities that are secured by real estate or interests in real estate.

      |_| The Fund cannot make loans except (a) by lending portfolio
securities, (b) through the purchase of debt instruments or similar evidences
of indebtedness, (c) through repurchase agreements, and (d) through an
interfund lending program with other affiliated funds.  No loan may be made
through interfund lending if, as a result, the aggregate of those loans would
exceed 33 1/3% of the value of the Fund's total assets (taken at market value
at the time the loan is made).

      |_| The Fund may not borrow money, except to the extent permitted under
the 1940 Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom
that is applicable to the fund, as such statute, rules or regulations may be
amended or interpreted from time to time.

      |_| The Fund cannot underwrite securities of other companies.  A
permitted exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the
Securities Act of 1933 when reselling any securities held in its own
portfolio.

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

      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.

      The Fund cannot invest in other investment companies except to the
extent permitted by the Act. The Fund would be permitted under this policy to
invest its assets in the securities of one or more open-end management
investment company for which the Manager, one of its affiliates or a
successor is the investment advisor or sub-advisor. That fund or funds must
have substantially the same fundamental investment objective, policies and
limitations as the Fund. The Fund's policy not to concentrate its
investments, as described above, also would permit the Fund to adopt a
"master-feeder" structure. Under that structure, the Fund would be a "feeder"
fund and would invest all of its assets in a single pooled "master fund" in
which other feeder funds could also invest. This could enable the Fund to
take advantage of potential operational and cost efficiencies in the
master-feeder structure. The Fund has no present intention of adopting the
master-feeder structure. If it did so, the Prospectus and this Statement of
Additional Information would be revised accordingly.

      |X| Does the Fund Have Other Restrictions that are Not Fundamental
Policies?

      The Fund has several additional restrictions on its investment policies
that are not fundamental, which means that they can be changed by the Board
of Trustees, without obtaining shareholder approval, except that with respect
to the first policy stated below, the Board of Trustees would not permit this
policy to be changed to permit investments in physical commodities or
commodity contracts without the vote of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
voting securities.

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

      |_| The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets in
securities which are restricted as to disposition under the federal
securities laws, except that the Fund may purchase without regard to this
limitation restricted securities which are eligible for resale pursuant to
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933.

      |_| The Fund can pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer or
assign its assets to secure borrowings by or indebtedness of the Fund. In
addition, the use of escrow or other collateral arrangements in connection
with borrowings and hedging instruments is permitted.

      |_| The Fund cannot buy or sell futures contracts other than interest
rate futures and municipal bond index futures.

      |_| The Fund cannot purchase securities other than hedging instruments
on margin. However, the Fund may obtain short-term credits that may be
necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities.

      |_| The Fund cannot sell securities short.

Diversification.   The Fund intends to be "diversified" as defined in the
Investment Company Act and to satisfy the restrictions against investing too
much of its assets in any "issuer" as set forth in the restrictions above.

      The Fund limits its investments in the securities of any one issuer to
qualify for tax purposes as a "regulated investment company" under the
Internal Revenue Code.  By qualifying, it does not have to pay federal income
taxes if more than 90% of its earnings are distributed to shareholders.  To
qualify, the Fund must meet a number of conditions.  First, not more than 25%
of the market value of the Fund's total assets may be invested in the
securities of a single issuer.  Second, with respect to 50% of the market
value of its total assets, (1) no more than 5% of the market value of its
total assets may be invested in the securities of a single issuer, and (2)
the Fund must not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of a
single issuer.

      The identification of the issuer of a municipal security depends on the
terms and conditions of the security.  When the assets and revenues of an
agency, authority, instrumentality or other political subdivision are
separate from those of the government creating it and the security is backed
only by the assets and revenues of the subdivision, agency, authority or
instrumentality, the latter would be deemed to be the sole issuer.
Similarly, if an industrial development bond is backed only by the assets and
revenues of the non-governmental user, then that user would be deemed to be
the sole issuer.  However, if in either case the creating government or some
other entity guarantees a security, the guarantee would be considered a
separate security and would be treated as an issue of such government or
other entity.

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

      In implementing the Fund's policy not to concentrate its investments,
the Manager will consider a non-governmental user of facilities financed by
industrial development bonds as being in a particular industry.  That is done
even though the bonds are municipal securities, as to which the Fund has no
concentration limitation.  Although this application of the concentration
restriction is not a fundamental policy of the Fund, it will not be changed
without shareholder approval. The Manager has no present intention of
investing more than 25% of the Fund's total assets in securities paying
interest from revenues of similar type projects or in industrial development
bonds. This is not a fundamental policy and therefore could be changed
without shareholder approval.  However, if that change were made, the
Prospectus or this Statement of Additional Information would be supplemented
to reflect the change.

How the Fund Is Managed

Organization and History.  The Fund is a series of a Massachusetts business
trust that was originally organized in 1989, as a trust having one series.
In 1993 it was reorganized to be a multi-series business trust (now called
Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust).  The Fund (formerly known as
Oppenheimer Florida Municipal Fund) was added as a separate series of that
Trust in June 1993. The Fund is an open-end, diversified management
investment company with an unlimited number of authorized shares of
beneficial interest.  Each of the three series of the Trust is a separate
fund that issues its own shares, has its own investment portfolio, and has
its own assets and liabilities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      The members of the Governance Committee are Phillip Griffiths
(Chairman), Kenneth Randall and Russell S. Reynolds, Jr.  The Governance
Committee held 7 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended July 31,
2004.   The Governance Committee reviews the Fund's governance guidelines,
the adequacy of the Fund's Codes of Ethics, and develops qualification
criteria for Board members consistent with the Fund's governance guidelines,
among other duties set forth in the Committee's charter.

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

Trustees  and Officers of the Fund.  Each of the  Trustees is an  "Independent
Trustee" under the Investment  Company Act. The Fund's  Trustees and officers,
their  positions  with the Fund,  length of  service in such  position(s)  and
principal  occupations  and business  affiliations  during the past five years
are listed in the chart below.  The information for each Trustee also includes
the dollar range of shares  beneficially  owned in the Fund and 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 each of the following  publicly offered  Oppenheimer  funds (referred to as
"Board I Funds").

Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals            Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund
Oppenheimer AMT-Free New York Municipals   Oppenheimer Growth Fund
Oppenheimer Balanced Fund                  Oppenheimer International Growth Fund
                                           Oppenheimer  International  Small Company
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund      Fund
Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund      Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund      Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income Trust
Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund        Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund    Oppenheimer New Jersey Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Discovery Fund                 Oppenheimer Pennsylvania Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Emerging Growth Fund           Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals
Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund     Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund                Oppenheimer U.S. Government Trust
Oppenheimer Global Fund                    Oppenheimer Value Fund
Oppenheimer Global Opportunities Fund

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

      Messrs. Fielding, Murphy, Petersen, Vandehey, Vottiero, Wixted, Zack,
and Mses. Bloomberg and Ives respectively hold the same offices with one or
more of the other Board I Funds as with the Fund.  As of August 31, 2004, the
Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group, owned of record or
beneficially less than 1% of each class of shares of the Fund.  The foregoing
statement does not reflect ownership of shares of the Fund held of record by
an employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares
beneficially owned under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above.
In addition, each Independent Trustee, and his or her family members, do not
own securities of either the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or
any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common
control with the Manager or Distributor.

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

      The Independent Trustees have unanimously (except for Mr. Reynolds, who
abstained) determined that the consulting arrangements between The
Directorship Search Group and Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company
were not material business or professional relationships that would
compromise Mr. Reynolds' status as an Independent Trustee. Nonetheless, to
assure certainty as to determinations of the Board and the Independent
Trustees as to matters upon which the Investment Company Act or the rules
thereunder require approval by a majority of Independent Trustees, Mr.
Reynolds will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum of
Independent Trustees was present or whether a majority of Independent
Trustees approved the matter.
      The address of each Trustee in the chart below is 6803 S. Tucson Way,
Centennial, CO 80112-3924. Each Trustee serves for an indefinite term, until
his or her resignation, retirement, death or removal.

For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, Ms. Moynihan  received $187 aggregate

$88,229,  respectively,  of total  compensation  from  all of the  Oppenheimer
funds for which they served as trustees.
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

   Trustee  will  retire  at the age of 75 and is  eligible  (after 7 years of

   "Retirement Plan for Trustees."
3.    Includes $1,139 deferred by Mr. Yeutter under the Deferred  Compensation

8.    Mr.  Spiro  retired  as a  Trustee  of all the  Board I funds  effective

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

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

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

      |X|  Major Shareholders.  As of August 31, 2004, the only persons who

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

The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement filed
with the SEC and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference
Room in Washington, D.C. You can obtain information about the hours of
operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1.202.942.8090.

      |X| Portfolio Proxy Voting.  The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy
Voting Policies and Procedures under which the Fund votes proxies relating to
securities held by the Fund ("portfolio proxies").  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 the 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 support proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.
o     The Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options.
o     The Fund generally considers executive compensation questions such as
         stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary business
         activity.  The Fund analyzes stock option plans, paying particular
         attention to their dilutive effect. While the Fund generally
         supports management proposals, the Fund opposes plans it considers
         to be excessive.

         The Fund is required to file new Form N-PX, with its complete proxy
voting record for the 12 months ended June 30th, no later than August 31st of
each year.  The Fund's Form N-PX filing is available (i) without charge, upon
request, by calling the Fund toll-free at  1.800.525-7048 and (ii) on the
SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
                 -----------

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

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

      The investment advisory agreement states that in the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or
reckless disregard for its obligations and duties under the investment
advisory agreement, the Manager is not liable for any loss 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 adviser to the Fund, the Manager can withdraw its permission to
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 of concluded that it was in the
best interest of shareholders to continue the investment advisory agreement
for another year. In arriving at a decision, the Board did not single out any
one factor or group of factors as being more important than other factors,
but considered all factors together.  The Board judged the terms and
conditions of the investment advisory agreement, including the investment
advisory fee, in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

      The Fund seeks to obtain prompt execution of orders at the most
favorable net prices.  In an option transaction, the Fund ordinarily uses the
same broker for the purchase or sale of the option and any transaction in the
investment to which the option relates.  Other funds advised by the Manager
have investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund.  Those
other funds may purchase or sell the same securities as the Fund at the same
time as the Fund, which could affect the supply and price of the securities.
When possible, the Manager tries to combine concurrent orders to purchase or
sell the same security by more than one of the accounts managed by the
Manager or its affiliates.  The transactions under those combined orders are
averaged as to price and allocated in accordance with the purchase or sale
orders actually placed for each account.

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

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

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

In the  fiscal  years  ended  July 31,  2002,  2003 and  2004,  there  were no
transactions directed to brokers for research services,  and the amount of the
commissions  paid to  broker-dealers  for those  services was $0. As explained
above, in the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002,  2003 and 2004,  respectively,
the Fund did not pay any brokerage commissions.

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 its
Class A shares and Distribution and Service Plans for its Class B and Class C
shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act.  Under those plans,
the Fund makes payments to the Distributor 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 of the Fund,
including a majority of the Independent Trustees,1 cast in person at a
meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan.

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

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

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

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

      While the plans are in effect, the Treasurer of the Fund shall provide
separate written reports on the plans to the Fund's 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 held
by the recipient for itself and its customers does not exceed a minimum
amount, if any, that may be set from time to time by a majority of the
Independent Trustees.

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

      For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, payments under the Class A
plan totaled $752,080, all of which was paid by the Distributor to recipients
and included $26,158 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's parent
company.  Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to
Class A shares for any fiscal year may not be recovered in subsequent years.
The Distributor may not use payments received under the Class A plan to pay
any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, other financial costs, or
allocation of overhead.

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

      Each plan permits the Distributor to retain both the asset-based sales
charges and the service fee on shares or to pay recipients the service fee on
a quarterly basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after Class B and Class C shares are purchased. After the first
year shares are outstanding, after their purchase, the Distributor makes
service fee payments quarterly on those shares. The advance payment is based
on the net asset value of shares sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not
qualify for the advance service fee payment. If Class B or Class C shares are
redeemed during the first year after their purchase, the recipient of the
service fees on those shares will be obligated to repay the Distributor a pro
rata portion of the advance payment made on those shares.

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

      The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B
shares.  The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C
shares during the first year the shares are outstanding. It pays the
asset-based sales charge as an ongoing concession to the dealer on Class C
shares outstanding for a year or more. If a dealer has a special agreement
with the Distributor, the Distributor will pay the Class B and/or Class C
service fees and the asset-based sales charge to the dealer quarterly in lieu
of paying the sales concession and service fee in advance at the time of
purchase.

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

      |_|         pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at
      the time of sale and pays service fees as described in the Prospectus,
      |_|         may finance payment of sales concessions and/or the advance
      of the service fee payment to recipients under the plans, or may
      provide such financing from its own resources or from the resources of
      an affiliate,
      |_|         employs personnel to support distribution of shares,
      |_|         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,
|_|   may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B and
      Class C shares without receiving payment under the plans and therefore
      may not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent the plans,
|_|   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,
|_|   may use the payments under the plan to include the Fund in various
      third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund
      shares,
|_|   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
|_|   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.

      Class B or Class C shares may not be purchased by an investor directly
from the Distributor without the investor designating another broker-dealer
of record.  If the investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for
an existing account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the
broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the
investor's agent to purchase the shares.  In those cases, the Distributor
retains the asset-based sales charge paid on Class B and Class C shares, but
does not retain any service fees as to the assets represented by that account.

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

Performance of the Fund

Explanation of Performance Terminology.  The Fund uses a variety of terms to
illustrate its performance. These terms include "standardized yield,"
"tax-equivalent yield," "dividend yield," "average annual total return,"
"cumulative total return," "average annual total return at net asset value"
and "total return at net asset value." An explanation of how yields and total
returns are calculated is set forth below. The charts below show the Fund's
performance as of its most recent fiscal year end. You can obtain current
performance information by calling the Fund's Transfer Agent at
1.800.525-7048 or by visiting the OppenheimerFunds Internet website at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

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

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

      |_| Yields and total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical
account in the Fund over various periods and do not show the performance of
each shareholder's account. Your account's performance will vary from the
model performance data if your dividends are received in cash, or you buy or
sell shares during the period, or you bought your shares at a different time
and price than the shares used in the model.
      |_|  The Fund's performance returns may not reflect the effect of taxes
on distributions.
      |_| An investment in the Fund is not insured by the FDIC or any other
government agency.
      |_| The principal value of the Fund's shares, and its yields and total
returns are not guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.
      |_| When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or
less than their original cost.
      |_|  Yields and total returns for any given past period represent
historical performance information and are not, and should not be considered,
a prediction of future yields or returns.

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

      |X|  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 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:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                               [OBJECT OMITTED]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The symbols above represent the following factors:
      a =  dividends and interest earned during the thirty (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 thirty (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 day period may differ
from the yield for other periods.  The SEC formula assumes that the
standardized yield for a 30-day 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 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 twelve (12) (to annualize the yield) and divided by
the maximum offering price on the last day of the dividend period.  The
formula is shown below:

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

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

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

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

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

      |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
(10) 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 4.75% (as a percentage of the offering price) is deducted
from the initial investment ("P") (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% contingent deferred
sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year period.

      |_| 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") to achieve an Ending Redeemable Value
("ERV" in the formula) of that investment, according to the following formula:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                               [OBJECT OMITTED]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

               - 1=  Average Annual Total Return (After Taxes on
ATVDR     1/n  Distributions 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:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                               [OBJECT OMITTED]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      |_| Total Returns at Net Asset Value.  From time to time the Fund may
also quote a cumulative or an average annual total return "at net asset
value" (without deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B or Class C
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.

      |_| 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 and ranks
mutual funds in their specialized market sectors.  The Fund is rated among
the municipal national long category.

      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.

      |_|  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 Class A, Class B or Class C 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 Fund's Class A, Class B or Class
C returns 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.

|X|   Right of Accumulation. To qualify for the lower sales charge rates that
apply to larger purchases of Class A shares, you and your spouse can add
together:
o     Class A and Class B shares you purchase for your individual accounts
            (including IRAs and 403(b) plans), or for your joint accounts, or
            for trust or custodial accounts on behalf of your children who
            are minors, and
o     Current purchases of Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other
            Oppenheimer funds to reduce the sales charge rate that applies to
            current purchases of Class A shares, and
o     Class A and Class B shares of Oppenheimer funds you previously
            purchased subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales
            charge to reduce the sales charge rate for current purchases of
            Class A shares, provided that you still hold your investment in
            one of the Oppenheimer funds.

      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.

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

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

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

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

      In submitting a Letter, the investor makes no commitment to purchase
shares. However, if the investor's purchases of shares within the Letter of
Intent 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 of Intent. 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 of Intent.

      If the total eligible purchases made during the Letter of Intent 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 of Intent 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      Before you establish Asset Builder payments, you should obtain a
prospectus of the selected fund(s) from your financial advisor (or the
Distributor) and request an application from the Distributor. Complete the
application and return it. You may change the amount of your Asset Builder
payment or you can terminate these automatic investments at any time by
writing to the Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent requires a reasonable
period (approximately 10 days) after receipt of your instructions to
implement them. The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue
offering Asset Builder plans at any time without prior notice.

Cancellation of Purchase Orders. Cancellation of purchase orders for the
Fund's shares (for example, when a purchase check is returned to the Fund
unpaid) causes a loss to be incurred when the net asset values of the Fund's
shares on the cancellation date is less than on the purchase date. That loss
is equal to the amount of the decline in the net asset value per share
multiplied by the number of shares in the purchase order. The investor is
responsible for that loss. If the investor fails to compensate the Fund for
the loss, the Distributor will do so. The Fund may reimburse the Distributor
for that amount by redeeming shares from any account registered in that
investor's name, or the Fund or the Distributor may seek other redress.

Classes of Shares. Each class of shares of the Fund represents an interest in
the same portfolio of investments of the Fund. However, each class has
different shareholder privileges and features. The net income attributable to
Class B or Class C shares and the dividends payable on Class B or Class C
shares will be reduced by incremental expenses borne solely by that class.
Those expenses include the asset-based sales charges to which Class B and
Class C are subject.

      The availability of different classes of shares permits an investor to
choose the method of purchasing shares that is more appropriate for the
investor. That may depend on the amount of the purchase, the length of time
the investor expects to hold shares, and other relevant circumstances. Class
A shares normally are sold subject to an initial sales charge. While Class B
and Class C shares have no initial sales charge, the purpose of the deferred
sales charge and asset-based sales charge on Class B and Class C shares is
the same as that of the initial sales charge on Class A shares - to
compensate the Distributor and brokers, dealers and financial institutions
that sell shares of the Fund. A salesperson who is entitled to receive
compensation from his or her firm for selling Fund shares may receive
different levels of compensation for selling one class of shares rather than
another.

      The Distributor will not accept a purchase order of $100,000 or more
for Class B shares or a purchase order of $1 million or more to purchase
Class C shares on behalf of a single investor (not including dealer "street
name" or omnibus accounts).

      |X|   Class B Conversion. Under current interpretations of applicable
federal income tax law by the Internal Revenue Service, the conversion of
Class B shares to Class A shares 72 months after purchase is not treated as a
taxable event for the shareholder. If those laws or the IRS interpretation of
those laws should change, the automatic conversion feature may be suspended.
In that event, no further conversions of Class B shares would occur while
that suspension remained in effect. Although Class B shares could then be
exchanged for Class A shares on the basis of relative net asset value of the
two classes, without the imposition of a sales charge or fee, such exchange
could constitute a taxable event for the shareholder, and absent such
exchange, Class B shares might continue to be subject to the asset-based
sales charge for longer than six years.

      |X|   Allocation of Expenses. The Fund pays expenses related to its
daily operations, such as custodian fees, Trustees' fees, transfer agency
fees, legal fees and auditing costs. Those expenses are paid out of the
Fund's assets and are not paid directly by shareholders. However, those
expenses reduce the net asset values of shares, and therefore are indirectly
borne by shareholders through their investment.

      The methodology for calculating the net asset value, dividends and
distributions of the Fund's share classes recognizes two types of expenses.
General expenses that do not pertain specifically to any one class are
allocated pro rata to the shares of all classes. The allocation is based on
the percentage of the Fund's total assets that is represented by the assets
of each class, and then equally to each outstanding share within a given
class. Such general expenses include management fees, legal, bookkeeping and
audit fees, printing and mailing costs of shareholder reports, Prospectuses,
Statements of Additional Information and other materials for current
shareholders, fees to unaffiliated Trustees, custodian expenses, share
issuance costs, organization and start-up costs, interest, taxes and
brokerage commissions, and non-recurring expenses, such as litigation costs.

      Other expenses that are directly attributable to a particular class are
allocated equally to each outstanding share within that class. Examples of
such expenses include distribution and  service plan (12b-1) fees, transfer
and shareholder servicing agent fees and expenses and shareholder meeting
expenses (to the extent that such expenses pertain only to a specific class).

Fund Account Fees. As stated in the Prospectus, a $12 annual "Minimum Balance
Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a share balance valued under $500.
The Minimum Balance Fee is automatically deducted from each such Fund account
on or about the second to last business day of September.

   Listed below are certain cases in which the Fund has elected, in its
   discretion, not to assess the Fund Account Fees.  These exceptions are
   subject to change:
o     A fund account whose shares were acquired after September 30th of the
      prior year;
o     A fund account that has a balance below $500 due to the automatic
      conversion of shares from Class B to Class A shares. However, once all
      Class B shares held in the account have been converted to Class A
      shares the new account balance may become subject to the Minimum
      Balance Fee;
o     Accounts of shareholders who elect to access their account documents
      electronically via eDoc Direct;
o     A fund account that has only certificated shares and, has a balance
      below $500 and is being escheated;
o     Accounts of shareholders that are held by broker-dealers under the NSCC
      Fund/SERV system;
o     Accounts held under the Oppenheimer Legacy Program and/or holding
      certain Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds;
o     Omnibus accounts holding shares pursuant to the Pinnacle, Ascender,
      Custom Plus, Recordkeeper Pro and Pension Alliance Retirement Plan
      programs; and
o     A fund account that falls below the $500 minimum solely due to market
      fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the fee is
      deducted.

To access account documents electronically via eDocs Direct, please visit the
Service Center on our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com or call
                                 ------------------------
1.888.470.0862 for instructions.

      The Fund reserves the authority to modify Fund Account Fees in its
discretion.

Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share. The net asset values per share
of each class of shares of the Fund are determined as of the close of
business of the Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open. The
calculation is done by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets
attributable to a class by the number of shares of that class that are
outstanding. The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M., Eastern time, but may
close earlier on some other days (for example, in case of weather emergencies
or on days falling before a U.S. holiday).  All references to time in this
Statement of Additional Information mean "Eastern time." The Exchange's most
recent annual announcement regarding holidays and days when the market may
close early is available on the Exchange's website at www.nyse.com.

      Dealers other than Exchange members may conduct trading in municipal
securities on days on which the Exchange is closed (including weekends and
holidays) or after 4:00 P.M. on a regular business day. Because the Fund's
net asset values will not be calculated on those days, the Fund's net asset
values per share may be significantly affected on such days when shareholders
may not purchase or redeem shares.

      |X|   Securities Valuation. The Fund's Board of Trustees has
established procedures for the valuation of the Fund's securities. In general
those procedures are as follows:

o     Long-term debt securities having a remaining maturity in excess of 60
days are valued based on the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices
determined by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.
o     The following securities are valued at the mean between the "bid" and
"asked" prices determined by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board
of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:
(1)   debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when
               issued,
(2)   debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued
               and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
(3)   non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or
               less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60
               days or less.
o     The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization
of premiums and accretion of discounts:
(1)   money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a
               maturity of less than 397 days when issued that have a
               remaining maturity of 60 days or less, and
(2)   debt instruments held by a money market fund that have a remaining
               maturity of 397 days or less.

o     Securities (including restricted securities) not having
readily-available market quotations are valued at fair value determined under
the Board's procedures. If the Manager is unable to locate two market makers
willing to give quotes, a security may be priced at the mean between the
"bid" and "asked" prices provided by a single active market maker (which in
certain cases may be the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available).

      In the case of municipal securities, when last sale information is not
generally available, the Manager may use pricing services approved by the
Board of Trustees. The pricing service may use "matrix" comparisons to the
prices for comparable instruments on the basis of quality, yield and
maturity. Other special factors may be involved (such as the tax-exempt
status of the interest paid by municipal securities). The Manager will
monitor the accuracy of the pricing services. That monitoring may include
comparing prices used for portfolio valuation to actual sales prices of
selected securities.

      Puts, calls, futures and municipal bond index futures are valued at the
last sale price on the principal exchange on which they are traded or on
Nasdaq(R), as applicable, as determined by a pricing service approved by the
Board of Trustees or by the Manager. If there were no sales that day, they
shall be valued at the last sale price on the preceding trading day if it is
within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked" prices on the principal
exchange or on Nasdaq on the valuation date. If not, the value shall be the
closing bid price on the principal exchange or on Nasdaq on the valuation
date. If the put, call or future is not traded on an exchange or on Nasdaq,
it shall be valued by the mean between "bid" and "asked" prices obtained by
the Manager from two active market makers. In certain cases that may be at
the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available.

      When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received
is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset. An
equivalent credit is included in the liability section. The credit is
adjusted ("marked-to-market") to reflect the current market value of the
option. In determining the Fund's gain on investments, if a call or put
written by the Fund is exercised, the proceeds are increased by the premium
received. If a call or put written by the Fund expires, the Fund has a gain
in the amount of the premium. If the Fund enters into a closing purchase
transaction, it will have a gain or loss, depending on whether the premium
received was more or less than the cost of the closing transaction.  If the
Fund exercises a put it holds, the amount the Fund receives on its sale of
the underlying investment is reduced by the amount of premium paid by the
Fund.

How to Sell Shares

      The information below supplements the terms and conditions for
redeeming shares set forth in the Prospectus.

Checkwriting. When a check is presented to United Missouri Bank (the "Bank")
for clearance, the Bank will ask the Fund to redeem a sufficient number of
full and fractional shares in the shareholder's account to cover the amount
of the check. This enables the shareholder to continue receiving dividends on
those shares until the check is presented to the Fund. Checks may not be
presented for payment at the offices of the Bank or the Fund's custodian.
This limitation does not affect the use of checks for the payment of bills or
to obtain cash at other banks. The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend
or discontinue offering checkwriting privileges at any time.  The Fund will
provide you notice whenever it is required to do so by applicable law.

      In choosing to take advantage of the Checkwriting privilege, by signing
the account application or by completing a Checkwriting card, each individual
who signs:
(1)   for individual accounts, represents that they are the registered
           owner(s) of the shares of the Fund in that account;
(2)   for accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts and other entities,
           represents that they are an officer, general partner, trustee or
           other fiduciary or agent, as applicable, duly authorized to act on
           behalf of the registered owner(s);
(3)   authorizes the Fund, its Transfer Agent and any bank through which the
           Fund's drafts (checks) are payable to pay all checks drawn on the
           Fund account of such person(s) and to redeem a sufficient amount
           of shares from that account to cover payment of each check;
(4)   specifically acknowledges that if they choose to permit checks to be
           honored if there is a single signature on checks drawn against
           joint accounts, or accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts
           or other entities, the signature of any one signatory on a check
           will be sufficient to authorize payment of that check and
           redemption from the account, even if that account is registered in
           the names of more than one person or more than one authorized
           signature appears on the Checkwriting card or the application, as
           applicable;
(5)   understands that the Checkwriting privilege may be terminated or
           amended at any time by the Fund and/or the Fund's bank; and
(6)   acknowledges and agrees that neither the Fund nor its bank shall incur
           any liability for that amendment or termination of checkwriting
           privileges or for redeeming shares to pay checks reasonably
           believed by them to be genuine, or for returning or not paying
           checks that have not been accepted for any reason.

Sending Redemption Proceeds by Federal Funds Wire. The Federal Funds wire of
redemption proceeds may be delayed if the Fund's custodian bank is not open
for business on a day when the Fund would normally authorize the wire to be
made, which is usually the Fund's next regular business day following the
redemption. In those circumstances, the wire will not be transmitted until
the next bank business day on which the Fund is open for business. No
dividends will be paid on the proceeds of redeemed shares awaiting transfer
by Federal Funds wire.

Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months of a redemption, a shareholder may
reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of:
o     Class A shares purchased subject to an initial sales charge or Class A
         shares on which a contingent deferred sales charge was paid, or
o     Class B shares that were subject to the Class B contingent deferred
         sales charge when redeemed.

      The reinvestment may be made without sales charge only in Class A
shares of the Fund or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which shares of
the Fund are exchangeable as described in "How to Exchange Shares" below.
Reinvestment will be at the net asset value next computed after the Transfer
Agent receives the reinvestment order. The shareholder must ask the Transfer
Agent for that privilege at the time of reinvestment. This privilege does not
apply to Class C shares. The Fund may amend, suspend or cease offering this
reinvestment privilege at any time as to shares redeemed after the date of
such amendment, suspension or cessation.

      Any capital gain that was realized when the shares were redeemed is
taxable, and reinvestment will not alter any capital gains tax payable on
that gain. If there has been a capital loss on the redemption, some or all of
the loss may not be tax deductible, depending on the timing and amount of the
reinvestment. Under the Internal Revenue Code, if the redemption proceeds of
Fund shares on which a sales charge was paid are reinvested in shares of the
Fund or another of the Oppenheimer funds within 90 days of payment of the
sales charge, the shareholder's basis in the shares of the Fund that were
redeemed may not include the amount of the sales charge paid. That would
reduce the loss or increase the gain recognized from the redemption. However,
in that case the sales charge would be added to the basis of the shares
acquired by the reinvestment of the redemption proceeds.

Payments "In Kind". The Prospectus states that payment for shares tendered
for redemption is ordinarily made in cash. However, under certain
circumstances, the Board of Trustees of the Fund may determine that it would
be detrimental to the best interests of the remaining shareholders of the
Fund to make payment of a redemption order wholly or partly in cash. In that
case, the Fund may pay the redemption proceeds in whole or in part by a
distribution "in kind" of liquid securities from the portfolio of the Fund,
in lieu of cash.

      The Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the Investment
Company Act. Under that rule, the Fund is obligated to redeem shares solely
in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets of the Fund
during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. If shares are redeemed in
kind, the redeeming shareholder might incur brokerage or other costs in
selling the securities for cash. The Fund will value securities used to pay
redemptions in kind using the same method the Fund uses to value its
portfolio securities described above under "Determination of Net Asset Values
Per Share." That valuation will be made as of the time the redemption price
is determined.

Involuntary Redemptions. The Fund's Board of Trustees has the right to cause
the involuntary redemption of the shares held in any account if the aggregate
net asset value of those shares is less than $200 or such lesser amount as
the Board may fix. The Board of Trustees will not cause the involuntary
redemption of shares in an account if the aggregate net asset value of such
shares has fallen below the stated minimum solely as a result of market
fluctuations. If the Board exercises this right, it may also fix the
requirements for any notice to be given to the shareholders in question (not
less than 30 days). The Board may alternatively set requirements for the
shareholder to increase the investment, or set other terms and conditions so
that the shares would not be involuntarily redeemed.

Transfers of Shares. A transfer of shares to a different registration is not
an event that triggers the payment of sales charges. Therefore, shares are
not subject to the payment of a contingent deferred sales charge of any class
at the time of transfer to the name of another person or entity. It does not
matter whether the transfer occurs by absolute assignment, gift or bequest,
as long as it does not involve, directly or indirectly, a public sale of the
shares. When shares subject to a contingent deferred sales charge are
transferred, the transferred shares will remain subject to the contingent
deferred sales charge. It will be calculated as if the transferee shareholder
had acquired the transferred shares in the same manner and at the same time
as the transferring shareholder.

      If less than all shares held in an account are transferred, and some
but not all shares in the account would be subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge if redeemed at the time of transfer, the priorities described in
the Prospectus under "How to Buy Shares" for the imposition of the Class B or
Class C contingent deferred sales charge will be followed in determining the
order in which shares are transferred.

Special Arrangements for Repurchase of Shares from Dealers and Brokers. The
Distributor is the Fund's agent to repurchase its shares from authorized
dealers or brokers on behalf of their customers. Shareholders should contact
their broker or dealer to arrange this type of redemption. The repurchase
price per share will be the net asset value next computed after the
Distributor receives an order placed by the dealer or broker. However, if the
Distributor receives a repurchase order from a dealer or broker after the
close of the Exchange on a regular business day, it will be processed at that
day's net asset value if the order was received by the dealer or broker from
its customers prior to the time the Exchange closes. Normally, the Exchange
closes at 4:00 P.M., but may do so earlier on some days. Additionally, the
order must have been transmitted to and received by the Distributor prior to
its close of business that day (normally 5:00 P.M.).

      Ordinarily, for accounts redeemed by a broker-dealer under this
procedure, payment will be made within three business days after the shares
have been redeemed upon the Distributor's receipt of the required redemption
documents in proper form. The signature(s) of the registered owners on the
redemption documents must be guaranteed as described in the Prospectus.

Automatic Withdrawal and Exchange Plans. Investors owning shares of the Fund
valued at $5,000 or more can authorize the Transfer Agent to redeem shares
(having a value of at least $50) automatically on a monthly, quarterly,
semi-annual or annual basis under an Automatic Withdrawal Plan. Shares will
be redeemed three business days prior to the date requested by the
shareholder for receipt of the payment. Automatic withdrawals of up to $1,500
per month may be requested by telephone if payments are to be made by check
payable to all shareholders of record. Payments must also be sent to the
address of record for the account and the address must not have been changed
within the prior 30 days. Required minimum distributions from
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored retirement plans may not be arranged on this
basis.

      Payments are normally made by check, but shareholders having
AccountLink privileges (see "How To Buy Shares") may arrange to have
Automatic Withdrawal Plan payments transferred to the bank account designated
on the account application or by signature-guaranteed instructions sent to
the Transfer Agent. Shares are normally redeemed pursuant to an Automatic
Withdrawal Plan three business days before the payment transmittal date you
select in the account application. If a contingent deferred sales charge
applies to the redemption, the amount of the check or payment will be reduced
accordingly.

      The Fund cannot guarantee receipt of a payment on the date requested.
The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering these
plans at any time without prior notice. Because of the sales charge assessed
on Class A share purchases, shareholders should not make regular additional
Class A share purchases while participating in an Automatic Withdrawal Plan.
Class B and Class C shareholders should not establish automatic withdrawal
plans, because of the potential imposition of the contingent deferred sales
charge on such withdrawals (except where the contingent deferred sales charge
is waived as described in Appendix C to this Statement of Additional
Information).

      By requesting an Automatic Withdrawal or Exchange Plan, the shareholder
agrees to the terms and conditions that apply to such plans, as stated below.
These provisions may be amended from time to time by the Fund and/or the
Distributor. When adopted, any amendments will automatically apply to
existing Plans.

      |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.

      |X|   Automatic Withdrawal Plans. Fund shares will be redeemed as
necessary to meet withdrawal payments. Shares acquired without a sales charge
will be redeemed first. Shares acquired with reinvested dividends and capital
gains distributions will be redeemed next, followed by shares acquired with a
sales charge, to the extent necessary to make withdrawal payments. Depending
upon the amount withdrawn, the investor's principal may be depleted. Payments
made under these plans should not be considered as a yield or income on your
investment.

      The Transfer Agent will administer the investor's Automatic Withdrawal
Plan as agent for the shareholder(s) (the "Planholder") who executed the Plan
authorization and application submitted to the Transfer Agent. Neither the
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 Y shares of Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund may not be exchanged for
      shares of any other fund.
o     Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are
      generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k)
      plans.
o     Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be
      exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may
      not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
      Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market
      Fund or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M
      shares.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund may not be exchanged
      for shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash
      Reserves or Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund.  Only
      participants in certain retirement plans may purchase shares of
      Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund, and only those participants may
      exchange shares of other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer
      Capital Preservation Fund.
o     Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund are not
      available by exchange of shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or
      Class A shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves.
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).

      The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
time. Although the Fund may impose these changes at any time, it will provide
you with notice of those changes whenever it is required to do so by
applicable law. It may be required to provide 60 days' notice prior to
materially amending or terminating the exchange privilege. That 60 day notice
is not required in extraordinary circumstances.

      |X|   How Exchanges Affect Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. No
contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on exchanges of shares of any
class purchased subject to a contingent deferred sales charge, with the
following exceptions:

o     When Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund (other than Rochester
National Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals) acquired by exchange of
Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund purchased subject to a Class A
contingent deferred sales charge are redeemed within 18 months measured from
the beginning of the calendar month of the initial purchase of the exchanged
Class A shares, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on
the redeemed shares.

o     When Class A shares of Rochester National Municipals and Rochester Fund
Municipals acquired by exchange of Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund
purchased subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales charge are redeemed
within 24 months of the beginning of the calendar month of the initial
purchase of the exchanged Class A shares, the Class A contingent deferred
sales charge is imposed on the redeemed shares.

o     If any Class A shares of another Oppenheimer fund that are exchanged
for Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund are subject to
the Class A contingent deferred sales charge of the other Oppenheimer fund at
the time of exchange, the holding period for that Class A contingent deferred
sales charge will carry over to the Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior
Floating Rate Fund acquired in the exchange. The Class A shares of
Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund acquired in that exchange will be
subject to the Class A Early Withdrawal Charge of Oppenheimer Senior Floating
Rate Fund if they are repurchased before the expiration of the holding period.

o     When Class A shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves and Oppenheimer Money
Market Fund, Inc. acquired by exchange of Class A shares of any Oppenheimer
fund purchased subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales charge are
redeemed within the Class A holding period of the fund from which the shares
were exchanged, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge of the fund from
which the shares were exchanged is imposed on the redeemed shares.

o     With respect to Class B shares (other than  Limited-Term Government
Fund, Limited Term Municipal Fund, Limited Term New York Municipal Fund,
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund and Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate
Fund), the Class B contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B
shares acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within six years of the
initial purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

o     With respect to Class B shares of Limited-Term Government Fund, Limited
Term Municipal Fund, Limited Term New York Municipal Fund, Oppenheimer
Capital Preservation Fund and Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund, the
Class B contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B shares
acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within 5 years of the initial
purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

o     With respect to Class C shares, the Class C contingent deferred sales
charge is imposed on Class C shares acquired by exchange if they are redeemed
within 12 months of the initial purchase of the exchanged Class C shares.

o     When Class B or Class C 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 or Class C contingent deferred sales charge will be
followed in determining the order in which the shares are exchanged. Before
exchanging shares, shareholders should take into account how the exchange may
affect any contingent deferred sales charge that might be imposed in the
subsequent redemption of remaining shares.

      Shareholders owning shares of more than one class must specify which
class of shares they wish to exchange.

      |X|   Limits on Multiple Exchange Orders. The Fund reserves the right
to reject telephone or written exchange requests submitted in bulk by anyone
on behalf of more than one account. The Fund may accept requests for
exchanges of up to 50 accounts per day from representatives of authorized
dealers that qualify for this privilege.

      |X|   Telephone Exchange Requests. When exchanging shares by telephone,
a shareholder must have an existing account in the fund to which the exchange
is to be made. Otherwise, the investors must obtain a prospectus of that fund
before the exchange request may be submitted. If all telephone lines are busy
(which might occur, for example, during periods of substantial market
fluctuations), shareholders might not be able to request exchanges by
telephone and would have to submit written exchange requests.

      |X|   Processing Exchange Requests. Shares to be exchanged are redeemed
on the regular business day the Transfer Agent receives an exchange request
in proper form (the "Redemption Date"). Normally, shares of the fund to be
acquired are purchased on the Redemption Date, but such purchases may be
delayed by either fund up to five business days if it determines that it
would be disadvantaged by an immediate transfer of the redemption proceeds.
The Fund reserves the right, in its discretion, to refuse any exchange
request that may disadvantage it. For example, if the receipt of multiple
exchange requests from a dealer might require the disposition of portfolio
securities at a time or at a price that might be disadvantageous to the Fund,
the Fund may refuse the request.

      When you exchange some or all of your shares from one fund to another,
any special account feature such as an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic
Withdrawal Plan will be switched to the new fund account unless you tell the
Transfer Agent not to do so. However, special redemption and exchange
features such as Automatic Exchange Plans and Automatic Withdrawal Plans
cannot be switched to an account in Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund.

      In connection with any exchange request, the number of shares exchanged
may be less than the number requested if the exchange or the number requested
would include shares subject to a restriction cited in the Prospectus or this
Statement of Additional Information, or would include shares covered by a
share certificate that is not tendered with the request. In those cases, only
the shares available for exchange without restriction will be exchanged.

      The different Oppenheimer funds available for exchange have different
investment objectives, policies and risks. A shareholder should assure that
the fund selected is appropriate for his or her investment and should be
aware of the tax consequences of an exchange. For federal income tax
purposes, an exchange transaction is treated as a redemption of shares of one
fund and a purchase of shares of another. "Reinvestment Privilege," above,
discusses some of the tax consequences of reinvestment of redemption proceeds
in such cases. The Fund, the Distributor, and the Transfer Agent are unable
to provide investment, tax or legal advice to a shareholder in connection
with an exchange request or any other investment transaction.

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends and Distributions. Dividends will be payable on shares held of
record at the time of the previous determination of net asset value, or as
otherwise described in "How to Buy Shares."  Daily dividends will not be
declared or paid on newly purchased shares until such time as Federal Funds
(funds credited to a member bank's account at the Federal Reserve Bank) are
available from the purchase payment for such shares. Normally, purchase
checks received from investors are converted to Federal Funds on the next
business day. Shares purchased through dealers or brokers normally are paid
for by the third business day following the placement of the purchase order.

      Shares redeemed through the regular redemption procedure will be paid
dividends through and including the day on which the redemption request is
received by the Transfer Agent in proper form. Dividends will be declared on
shares repurchased by a dealer or broker for three business days following
the trade date (that is, up to and including the day prior to settlement of
the repurchase). If all shares in an account are redeemed, all dividends
accrued on shares of the same class in the account will be paid together with
the redemption proceeds.

      The Fund's practice of attempting to pay dividends on Class A shares at
a constant level requires the Manager to monitor the Fund's portfolio and, if
necessary, to select higher-yielding securities when it is deemed appropriate
to seek income at the level needed to meet the target. Those securities must
be within the Fund's investment parameters, however. The Fund expects to pay
dividends at a targeted level from its net investment income and other
distributable income without any impact on the net asset values per share.

      Dividends, distributions and proceeds of the redemption of Fund shares
represented by checks returned to the Transfer Agent by the Postal Service as
undeliverable will be invested in shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund,
Inc. Reinvestment will be made as promptly as possible after the return of
such checks to the Transfer Agent, to enable the investor to earn a return on
otherwise idle funds. Unclaimed accounts may be subject to state escheatment
laws, and the Fund and the Transfer Agent will not be liable to shareholders
or their representatives for compliance with those laws in good faith.

      The amount of a distribution paid on a class of shares may vary from
time to time depending on market conditions, the composition of the Fund's
portfolio, and expenses borne by the Fund or borne separately by a class.
Dividends are calculated in the same manner, at the same time and on the same
day for shares of each class. However, dividends on Class B and Class C
shares are expected to be lower than dividends on Class A shares. That is due
to the effect of the asset-based sales charge on Class B and Class C shares.
Those dividends will also differ in amount as a consequence of any difference
in net asset value among the different classes of shares.

Tax Status of the Fund's Dividends, Distributions and Redemptions of Shares.
The federal tax treatment of the Fund's distributions is briefly highlighted
in the Prospectus. The following is only a summary of certain additional tax
considerations generally affecting the Fund and its shareholders.

      The tax discussion in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information is based on tax law in effect on the date of the Prospectus and
this Statement of Additional Information. Those laws and regulations may be
changed by legislative, judicial, or administrative action, sometimes with
retroactive effect. State and local tax treatment of exempt-interest
dividends and potential capital gain distributions from regulated investment
companies may differ from the treatment under the Internal Revenue Code
described below. Potential purchasers of shares of the Fund are urged to
consult their tax advisers with specific reference to their own tax
circumstances as well as the consequences of federal, state and local tax
rules affecting an investment in the Fund.

      |X|   Qualification  as a  Regulated  Investment  Company.  The Fund has
elected to be taxed as a regulated  investment  company under  Subchapter M of
the  Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986,  as amended.  As a regulated  investment
company,  the Fund is not subject to federal  income tax on the portion of its
net  investment  income  (that  is,  taxable  interest,  dividends,  and other
taxable  ordinary  income,  net of expenses) and capital gain net income (that
is, the excess of net  long-term  capital  gains over net  short-term  capital
losses) that it distributes to shareholders.

      If the Fund qualifies as a "regulated investment company" under the
Internal Revenue Code, it will not be liable for federal income tax on
amounts it pays as dividends and other distributions. That qualification
enables the Fund to "pass through" its income and realized capital gains to
shareholders without having to pay tax on them. The Fund qualified as a
regulated investment company in its last fiscal year and intends to qualify
in future years, but reserves the right not to qualify. The Internal Revenue
Code contains a number of complex tests to determine whether the Fund
qualifies. The Fund might not meet those tests in a particular year. If it
does not qualify, the Fund will be treated for tax purposes as an ordinary
corporation and will receive no tax deduction for payments of dividends and
other distributions made to shareholders. In such an instance, all of the
Fund's dividends would be taxable to shareholders.

      To qualify as a regulated investment company, the Fund must distribute
at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (in brief, net
investment income and the excess of net short-term capital gain over net
long-term capital loss) and at least 90% of its net tax-exempt income for the
taxable year. The Fund must also satisfy certain other requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code, some of which are described below.  Distributions by
the Fund made during the taxable year or, under specified circumstances,
within 12 months after the close of the taxable year, will be considered
distributions of income and gains for the taxable year and will therefore
count toward satisfaction of the above-mentioned requirement.

      To qualify as a regulated investment company, the Fund must derive at
least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, certain payments with
respect to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of
stock or securities or foreign currencies (to the extent such currency gains
are directly related to the regulated investment company's principal business
of investing in stock or securities) and certain other income.

      In addition to satisfying the requirements described above, the Fund
must satisfy an asset diversification test in order to qualify as a regulated
investment company.  Under that test, at the close of each quarter of the
Fund's taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund's assets must
consist of cash and cash items (including receivables), U.S. government
securities, securities of other regulated investment companies, and
securities of other issuers. As to each of those issuers, the Fund must not
have invested more than 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets in
securities of each such issuer and the Fund must not hold more than 10% of
the outstanding voting securities of each such issuer. No more than 25% of
the value of its total assets may be invested in the securities of any one
issuer (other than U.S. government securities and securities of other
regulated investment companies), or in two or more issuers which the Fund
controls and which are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses.
For purposes of this test, obligations issued or guaranteed by certain
agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government are treated as U.S.
government securities.

|X|   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.

|X|   Taxation of Fund Distributions. The Fund intends to qualify under the
Internal Revenue Code during each fiscal year to pay "exempt-interest
dividends" to its shareholders. To satisfy this qualification, at the end of
each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund's
total assets consists of obligations as defined in Section 103(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Exempt-interest dividends that are derived
from net investment income earned by the Fund on municipal securities will be
excludable from gross income of shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
To the extent the Fund fails to qualify to pay exempt-interest dividends in
any given form, such dividends would be included in the gross income of
shareholders for federal income tax purposes.

      Net investment income includes the allocation of amounts of income from
the municipal securities in the Fund's portfolio that are free from federal
income taxes. This allocation will be made by the use of one designated
percentage applied uniformly to all income dividends paid during the Fund's
tax year. That designation will normally be made following the end of each
fiscal year as to income dividends paid in the prior year. The percentage of
income designated as tax-exempt may substantially differ from the percentage
of the Fund's income that was tax-exempt for a given period.

      A portion of the exempt-interest dividends paid by the Fund may be an
item of tax preference for shareholders subject to the federal alternative
minimum tax. The amount of any dividends attributable to tax preference items
for purposes of the alternative minimum tax will be identified when tax
information is distributed by the Fund.

      A shareholder receiving a dividend from income earned by the Fund from
one or more of the following sources must treat the dividend as ordinary
income in the computation of the shareholder's gross income, regardless of
whether the dividend is reinvested:
(1)   certain taxable temporary investments (such as certificates of deposit,
          repurchase agreements, commercial paper and obligations of the U.S.
          government, its agencies and instrumentalities);
(2)   income from securities loans;
(3)   income or gains from options or futures,
(4)   any net short-term capital gain; and
(5)   any market discount amortization on tax-exempt bonds.

      The Fund's dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received
deduction for corporations. Shareholders receiving Social Security or
railroad retirement benefits should be aware that exempt-interest dividends
are a factor in determining whether (and the extent to which) such benefits
are subject to federal income tax. Losses realized by shareholders on the
redemption of Fund shares within six months of purchase will be disallowed
for federal income tax purposes to the extent of exempt-interest dividends
received on such shares.

      The Fund may either retain or distribute to shareholders its net
capital gain for each taxable year.  The Fund currently intends to distribute
any such amounts.  If the net capital gain is distributed and designated as a
capital gain distribution, it will be taxable to shareholders as a long-term
capital gain and will be properly identified in reports sent to shareholders
in January of each year. Such treatment will apply no matter how long the
shareholder has held his or her shares or whether that gain was recognized by
the Fund before the shareholder acquired his or her shares.

      If the Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, the Fund will be
subject to tax on it at the 35% corporate tax rate. If the Fund elects to
retain its net capital gain, the Fund will provide to shareholders of record
on the last day of its taxable year information regarding their pro rata
share of the gain and tax paid. As a result, each shareholder will be
required to report his or her pro rata share of such gain on their tax return
as long-term capital gain, will receive a refundable tax credit for his/her
pro rata share of tax paid by the Fund on the gain, and will increase the tax
basis for his/her shares by an amount equal to the deemed distribution less
the tax credit.

      Distributions by the Fund will be treated in the manner described above
regardless of whether the distributions are paid in cash or reinvested in
additional shares of the Fund (or of another fund).  Shareholders receiving a
distribution in the form of additional shares will be treated as receiving a
distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares
received, determined as of the reinvestment date.

      The Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold 28% of ordinary
income dividends (not including "exempt-interest dividends"), capital gains
distributions (including short-term and long-term) and the proceeds of the
                                                 -
redemption of shares, paid to any shareholder (1) who has failed to provide a
correct taxpayer identification number or to properly certify that number
-------
when required, (2) who is subject to backup withholding for failure to report
the receipt of interest or dividend income properly, or (3) who has failed to
certify to the Fund that the shareholder is not subject to backup withholding
or is an "exempt recipient" (such as a corporation). All income and any tax
withheld by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S. Treasury and is
identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each year.

|X|   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.

|X|   Foreign  Shareholders.  Under U.S.  tax law,  taxation of a  shareholder
who is a foreign person (to include,  but not limited to, a nonresident  alien
individual,  a foreign trust, a foreign estate,  a foreign  corporation,  or a
foreign partnership)  primarily depends on whether the foreign person's income
from the Fund is  effectively  connected  with the conduct of a U.S.  trade or
business.   Typically,   ordinary   income   dividends   paid  (not  including
exempt-interest  dividends  paid  by the  Fund)  from a  mutual  fund  are not
considered "effectively connected" income.

      Ordinary income dividends that are paid by the Fund (and are deemed not
"effectively connected income") to foreign persons will be subject to a U.S.
tax withheld by the Fund at a rate of 30%, provided the Fund obtains a
properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status. The tax rate may
be reduced if the foreign person's country of residence has a tax treaty with
the U.S. allowing for a reduced tax rate on ordinary income dividends paid by
the Fund. All income and any tax withheld by the Fund is remitted by the Fund
to the U.S. Treasury and is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in
March of each year.

      If the ordinary income dividends from the Fund are effectively
                                                     ---
connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign
person may claim an exemption from the U.S. tax described above provided the
Fund obtains a properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status.
If the foreign person fails to provide a certification of his/her foreign
status, the Fund will be required to withhold U.S. tax at a rate of 28% on
ordinary income dividends (not including "exempt-interest dividends"),
capital gains distributions (including short-term and long-term) and the
proceeds of the redemption of shares, paid to any foreign person. All income
and any tax withheld (in this situation) by the Fund is remitted by the Fund
to the U.S. Treasury and is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in
January of each year.

      The tax consequences to foreign persons entitled to claim the benefits
of an applicable tax treaty may be different from those described herein.
Foreign shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors or the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service with respect to the particular tax consequences to
them of an investment in the Fund, including the applicability of the U.S.
withholding taxes described above.

Dividend Reinvestment in Another Fund. Shareholders of the Fund may elect to
reinvest all dividends and/or capital gains distributions in shares of the
same class of any of the other Oppenheimer funds listed above. Reinvestment
will be made without sales charge at the net asset value per share in effect
at the close of business on the payable date of the dividend or distribution.
To elect this option, the shareholder must notify the Transfer Agent in
writing and must have an existing account in the fund selected for
reinvestment. Otherwise the shareholder first must obtain a prospectus for
that fund and an application from the Distributor to establish an account.
Dividends and/or distributions from shares of certain other Oppenheimer funds
(other than Oppenheimer Cash Reserves) may be invested in shares of this Fund
on the same basis.



Additional Information About the Fund

The Distributor. The Fund's shares are sold through dealers, brokers and
other financial institutions that have a sales agreement with
OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. a subsidiary of the Manager that acts as
the Fund's Distributor. The Distributor also distributes shares of the other
Oppenheimer funds and is sub-distributor for funds managed by a subsidiary of
the Manager.

The Transfer Agent. OppenheimerFunds Services, the Fund's Transfer Agent, is
a division of the Manager. It is responsible for maintaining the Fund's
shareholder registry and shareholder accounting records, and for paying
dividends and distributions to shareholders. It also handles shareholder
servicing and administrative functions. It serves as the Transfer Agent for
an annual per account fee. It also acts as shareholder servicing agent for
the other Oppenheimer funds.  Shareholders should direct inquiries about
their accounts to the Transfer Agent at the address and toll-free numbers
shown on the back cover.

The Custodian Bank.  Citibank, N.A. is the custodian of the Fund's assets.
The custodian's responsibilities include safeguarding and controlling the
Fund's portfolio securities and handling the delivery of such securities to
and from the Fund. It is the practice of the Fund to deal with the custodian
in a manner uninfluenced by any banking relationship the custodian may have
with the Manager and its affiliates. The Fund's cash balances with the
custodian in excess of $100,000 are not protected by federal deposit
insurance.  Those uninsured balances at times may be substantial.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. KPMG LLP served as an
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Fund.  It audits the
Fund's financial statements and performs other related audit services.  It
also acts as an independent registered public accounting firm for the Manager
and certain other funds advised by the Manager and its affiliates. Audit and
non-audit services provided by KPMG LLP to the Fund must be pre-approved by
the Audit Committee.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
 OPPENHEIMER MULTI-STATE MUNICIPAL TRUST:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
 Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals, (one of the portfolios
constituting
 the Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust) including the statement of
 investments, as of July 31, 2004, and the related statement of operations for
 the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the
 two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of
 the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and
 financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
 responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
 financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
 Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
 that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether
 the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
 misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting
 the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
 included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2004, by
 correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate
auditing
 procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also
includes
 assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
 management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.
 We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
 to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
 Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals as of July 31, 2004, the results of
 its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
each
 of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for
 each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S.
 generally accepted accounting principles.

Bonds rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization are
included in the equivalent Standard & Poor's rating category. As a general
matter, unrated bonds may be backed by mortgage liens or equipment liens on
the
underlying property, and also may be guaranteed. Bonds which are backed by a
letter of credit or by other financial institutions or agencies may be
assigned
an investment-grade rating by the Manager, which reflects the quality of the
guarantor, institution or agency. Unrated bonds may also be assigned a rating
when the issuer has rated bonds outstanding with comparable credit
characteristics, or when, in the opinion of the Manager, the bond itself
possesses credit characteristics which allow for rating. The unrated bonds in
the portfolio are predominantly smaller issuers which have not applied for a
bond rating. Only those unrated bonds which subsequent to purchase have not
been
designated investment grade by the Manager are included in the "Not Rated"
category.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals (the Fund) is a separate series of
 Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust, an open-end management investment
 company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
 Fund's investment objective is to seek a high level of current income exempt
 from federal income taxes for individual investors by investing in a
 diversified portfolio of high-yield municipal securities. The Fund's
investment
 advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
    The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class A shares are
sold
 at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end
 sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales
 charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). All
 classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to
 the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that
 class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ
due
 to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder
 servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to
 that class. Class A, B and C have separate distribution and/or service plans.
 Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after
the
 date of purchase.
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SECURITIES VALUATION. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares
as
 of the close of The New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange), normally 4:00
P.M.
 Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for business. Securities
listed
 or traded on National Stock Exchanges or other domestic or foreign exchanges
 are valued based on the last sale price of the security traded on that
exchange
 prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. Securities traded on
 NASDAQ are valued based on the closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the
 time when the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the
security
 is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within
the
 spread of the closing bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid
 price. Corporate, government and municipal debt instruments having a
remaining
 maturity in excess of 60 days and all mortgage-backed securities will be
valued
 at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices. Securities may be valued
 primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
 authorized by the Board of Trustees. Securities (including restricted
 securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued
at
 their fair value. Foreign and domestic securities whose values have been
 materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event
 occurring before the Fund's assets are valued but after the close of their
 respective exchanges will be fair valued. Fair value is determined in good
 faith using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the
Board
 of Trustees. Short-term "money market type" debt securities with remaining
 maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost (which
 approximates market value).



40  |   OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER NATIONAL MUNICIPALS


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SECURITIES ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS OR FORWARD COMMITMENT. Delivery and payment
 for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis or
 forward commitment can take place up to ten days or more after the trade
date.
 Normally the settlement date occurs within six months after the trade date;
 however, the Fund may, from time to time, purchase securities whose
settlement
 date extends six months or more beyond trade date. During this period, such
 securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may
 increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The Fund maintains
 internally designated assets with a market value equal to or greater than the
 amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a
when-issued
 basis or forward commitment may increase the volatility of the Fund's net
asset
 value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining
 substantially fully invested. The Fund may also sell securities that it
 purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of
 the original purchase. As of July 31, 2004, the Fund had purchased
$22,218,136
 of securities on a when-issued basis or forward commitment.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 INVERSE FLOATING RATE SECURITIES. The Fund invests in inverse floating rate
 securities that pay interest at a rate that varies inversely with short-term
 interest rates. Certain of these securities may be leveraged, whereby the
 interest rate varies inversely at a multiple of the change in short-term
rates.
 As interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce less current income. The
price
 of such securities is more volatile than comparable fixed rate securities.
The
 Fund intends to invest no more than 35% of its total assets in inverse
 floaters. Inverse floaters amount to $117,441,380 as of July 31, 2004.
 Including the effect of leverage, inverse floaters represent 23.30% of the
 Fund's total assets as of July 31, 2004.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other
than
 those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a
 daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
 assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable
to a
 specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 FEDERAL TAXES. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal
 Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
 substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net
 realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if
any,
 to shareholders, therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is
 required.

 The tax components of capital shown in the table below represent distribution
 requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses
the
 Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years
 and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other
investments
 for federal income tax purposes.

 Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for
 financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and
 distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net
 realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal
 income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the
 fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year
in
 which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.

 The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended July 31, 2004

 TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for
 the Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
 fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended
 July 31, 2004, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by
 $13,104 and payments of $2,780 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an
 accumulated liability of $25,179 as of July 31, 2004.
    The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
 independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all
or
 a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the
 Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the
 plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been
 invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the
 Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the
 Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund
 asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included
as
 a component of "Other" within the asset section of the Statement of Assets
and
 Liabilities. Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan will not affect the
net
 assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund's assets,
 liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred
until
 distributed in accordance to the Plan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends and distributions to
 shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
 are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions, if any, are
 declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are
 declared and paid annually.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 INVESTMENT  INCOME.  Interest income,  which includes  accretion of discount
 and amortization of premium, is accrued as earned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENT. The reduction of custodian fees, if applicable,
 represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
 Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
 identified cost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 OTHER. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates
 and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and
 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
 statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the
reporting
 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
 The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other
 than short-term obligations, for the year ended July 31, 2004, were
 $916,709,801 and $344,188,115, respectively.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 MANAGEMENT FEES. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with
 the investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee at
an
 annual rate of 0.60% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets,
 0.55% of the next $100 million, 0.50% of the next $200 million, 0.45% of the
 next $250 million, 0.40% of the next $250 million, and 0.35% of average
annual
 net assets in excess of $1 billion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the
 Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund.
The
 Fund pays OFS a per account fee. For the year ended July 31, 2004, the Fund
 paid $487,484 to OFS for services to the Fund.


44  |   OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER NATIONAL MUNICIPALS


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN (12B-1) FEES. Under its General Distributor's
 Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
 acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
 the Fund's classes of shares.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SERVICE PLAN FOR CLASS A SHARES. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for
Class
 A shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred
for
 services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made
 quarterly at an annual rate of up to 0.15% of the average annual net assets
of
 Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees
to
 pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly for
 providing personal services and maintenance of accounts of their customers
that
 hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with
 respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in
subsequent
 years. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement
 of Operations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS FOR CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES. The Fund has
 adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and Class C shares to
 compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the
distribution
 of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the plans, the Fund pays the
 Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B
and
 Class C shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of up to 0.15%
per
 year under each plan. If either the Class B or Class C plan is terminated by
 the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its
 independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled
 to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or
 asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective
date
 of such termination. The Distributor's aggregate uncompensated expenses under
 the plan at July 31, 2004 for Class B and Class C shares were $11,904,117 and
 $3,611,786, respectively. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plans are
 detailed in the Statement of Operations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SALES CHARGES. Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges
 (CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the
 proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption
 proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by
the
 Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor
on
 the redemption of shares is shown in the table below for the period
indicated.

 PAYMENTS AND WAIVERS OF EXPENSES. OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit
transfer
 and shareholder servicing agent fees for all classes to 0.35% of average
annual
 net assets per class. During the year ended July 31, 2004, OFS waived $279,
 $120 and $24 for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively. This
 undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 5. ILLIQUID SECURITIES
 As of July 31, 2004, investments in securities included issues that are
 illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily
available
 market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
 Fund will not invest more than 15% of its net assets (determined at the time
of
 purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. The aggregate
value
 of illiquid securities subject to this limitation as of July 31, 2004 was
 $127,218,333, which represents 9.74% of the Fund's net assets.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 6. BANK BORROWINGS
 The Fund may borrow up to one third of its total assets from a bank to
purchase
 portfolio securities, to meet redemption obligations or for temporary and
 emergency purposes. The purchase of securities with borrowed funds creates
 leverage in the Fund. The Fund has entered into an agreement which enables it
 to participate with certain other Oppenheimer funds in a committed, unsecured
 line of credit with a bank, which permits borrowings up to $540 million,
 collectively. Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a
 rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75%. The Fund also pays a
 commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of the average unutilized amount
of
 the credit facility at a rate of 0.09% per annum.
    The Fund had borrowings outstanding of $75,400,000 at July 31, 2004 at an
 interest rate of 2.12%. For the year ended July 31, 2004, the average monthly
 loan balance was $41,061,336 at an average daily interest rate of 1.777%. The
 Fund had gross borrowings and gross loan repayments of $555,200,000 and
 $519,000,000, respectively, during the year ended July 31, 2004. The maximum
 amount of borrowings outstanding at any month-end was $82,800,000. The Fund
 paid commitment fees of $7,803 and interest of $745,482 during the year ended
 July 31, 2004.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - LITIGATION

Three complaints have been filed as putative derivative and class actions
against the Manager, OFS and the Distributor (collectively,
"OppenheimerFunds"),
as well as 51 of the Oppenheimer funds (collectively, the "Funds") including
this Fund, and nine directors/trustees of certain of the Funds (collectively,
the "Directors/Trustees"). The complaints allege that the Manager charged
excessive fees for distribution and other costs, improperly used assets of the
Funds in the form of directed brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees to pay
brokers to promote sales of the Funds, and failed to properly disclose the

46  |   OPPENHEIMER ROCHESTER NATIONAL MUNICIPALS



use of Fund assets to make those payments in violation of the Investment
Company
Act of 1940 and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The complaints further
allege that by permitting and/or participating in those actions, the
Directors/Trustees breached their fiduciary duties to Fund shareholders under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 and at common law.

OppenheimerFunds believes that it is premature to render any opinion as to the
likelihood of an outcome unfavorable to them, the Funds or the
Directors/Trustees and that no estimate can yet be made with any degree of
certainty as to the amount or range of any potential loss. However,
OppenheimerFunds, the Funds and the Directors/Trustees believe that the
allegations contained in the complaints are without merit and intend to defend
these lawsuits vigorously.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION  Unaudited
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 In early 2005, if applicable, shareholders of record will receive information
 regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during
 calendar year 2004. Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require the
 Fund to report this information to the Internal Revenue Service.
    None of the dividends paid by the Fund during the year ended July 31, 2004
 are eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction. The dividends
were
 derived from interest on municipal bonds and are not subject to federal
income
 taxes. To the extent a shareholder is subject to any state or local tax laws,
 some or all of the dividends received may be taxable.
    The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting
 distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because
 of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual
 tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we
 recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PORTFOLIO PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES  Unaudited

                                  Appendix A

                      MUNICIPAL BOND RATINGS DEFINITIONS
                      ----------------------------------

Below   are    summaries   of   the   rating    definitions    used   by   the
nationally-recognized  rating agencies listed below for municipal  securities.
Those ratings  represent the opinion of the agency as to the credit quality of
issues that they rate. The summaries  below are based upon  publicly-available
information provided by the rating organizations.

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's")
Municipal Ratings are opinions of the investment quality of issuers and
issues in the U.S. municipal and tax-exempt markets. As such, these ratings
incorporate Moody's assessment of the default probability and loss severity
of these issuers and issues.

Municipal Ratings are based upon the analysis of four primary factors
relating to municipal finance: economy, debt, finances, and
administration/management strategies. Each of the factors is evaluated
individually and for its effect on the other factors in the context of the
municipality's ability to repay its debt.

MUNICIPAL LONG-TERM RATING DEFINITIONS

Aaa:  Issuers or issues rated Aaa demonstrate the strongest creditworthiness
relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

Aa:  Issuers or issues rated Aa demonstrate very strong creditworthiness
relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

A:  Issuers or issues rated A present above-average creditworthiness relative
to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

Baa:  Issuers or issues rated Baa represent average creditworthiness relative
to other US municipal or tax- exempt issuers or issues.

Ba:  Issuers or issues rated Ba demonstrate below-average creditworthiness
relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

B:  Issuers or issues rated B demonstrate weak creditworthiness relative to
other US municipal or tax- exempt issuers or issues.

Caa:  Issuers or issues rated Caa demonstrate very weak creditworthiness
relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

Ca:  Issuers or issues rated Ca demonstrate extremely weak creditworthiness
relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

C:  Issuers or issues rated C demonstrate the weakest creditworthiness
relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 in each generic rating
classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the
obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the
modifier 2 indicates a mid- range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a
ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.

MIG/VMIG RATINGS: U.S. SHORT-TERM RATINGS
In municipal debt issuance, there are three rating categories for short-term
obligations that are considered investment grade. These ratings are
designated as Moody's Investment Grade (MIG) and are divided into three
levels -- MIG 1 through MIG 3.
In addition, those short-term obligations that are of speculative quality are
designated SG, or speculative grade.

In the case of variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), a two-component
rating is assigned. The first element represents Moody's evaluation of the
degree of risk associated with scheduled principal and interest payments. The
second element represents Moody's evaluation of the degree of risk associated
with the demand feature, using the MIG rating scale.

The short-term rating assigned to the demand feature of VRDOs is designated
as VMIG. When either the long- or short-term aspect of a VRDO is not rated,
that piece is designated NR, e.g., Aaa/NR or NR/VMIG 1.

MIG ratings expire at note maturity. By contrast, VMIG rating expirations
will be a function of each issue's specific structural or credit features.

MIG 1/VMIG 1: Denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is
afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support or
demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

MIG 2/VMIG 2: Denotes strong credit quality. Margins of protection are ample
although not as large as in the preceding group.

MIG 3/VMIG 3: Denotes acceptable credit quality. Liquidity and cash-flow
protection may be narrow, and market access for refinancing is likely to be
less well established.

SG:  Denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this
category may lack margins of protection.


Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("Standard & Poor's"), a division of The
McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

LONG-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS
Issue credit ratings are based in varying degrees, on the following
considerations:
o     Likelihood of payment-capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet
      its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the terms
      of the obligation;
o     Nature of and provisions of the obligation; and
o     Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the
      event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the
      laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights.
   The issue ratings definitions are expressed in terms of default risk. As
such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are
typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority
in bankruptcy, as noted above.

AAA: An obligation rated `AAA' has the highest rating assigned by Standard &
Poor's. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the
obligation is extremely strong.

AA: An obligation rated `AA' differs from the highest-rated obligations only
in small degree. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation is very strong.

A: An obligation rated `A' are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse
effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations
in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor's capacity to meet its
financial commitment on the obligation is still strong.

BBB: An obligation rated `BBB' exhibits adequate protection parameters.
However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial
commitment on the obligation.

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

An obligation rated `BB', `B', `CCC', `CC', and `C' are regarded as having
significant speculative characteristics. `BB' indicates the least degree of
speculation and `C' the highest. While such obligations will likely have some
quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large
uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions.

BB: An obligation rated `BB' are less vulnerable to nonpayment than other
speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, which could lead to
the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on the
obligation.

B: An obligation rated `B' are more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations
rated `BB', but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial
commitment on the obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic
conditions will likely impair the obligor's capacity or willingness to meet
its financial commitment on the obligation.

CCC: An obligation rated `CCC' are currently vulnerable to nonpayment and are
dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the
obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. In the event of
adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not
likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the
obligation.

CC: An obligation rated `CC' are currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment.

C: The `C' rating may be used to cover a situation where a bankruptcy
petition has been filed or similar action has been taken, but payments on
this obligation are being continued.

D: An obligation rated `D' are in payment default. The `D' rating category is
used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due even if the
applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor's believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period. The `D' rating also
will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a
similar action if payments on an obligation are jeopardized.

The ratings from "AA" to "CCC" may be modified by the addition of a plus (+)
or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories.

c: The `c' subscript is used to provide additional information to investors
that the bank may terminate its obligation to purchase tendered bonds if the
long-term credit rating of the issuer is below an investment-grade level
and/or the issuer's bonds are deemed taxable.

p: The letter `p' indicates that the rating is provisional. A provisional
rating assumes the successful completion of the project financed by the debt
being rated and indicates that payment of debt service requirements is
largely or entirely dependent upon the successful, timely completion of the
project. This rating, however, while addressing credit quality subsequent to
completion of the project, makes no comment on the likelihood of or the risk
of default upon failure of such completion. The investor should exercise his
own judgment with respect to such likelihood and risk.

Continuance of the ratings is contingent upon Standard & Poor's receipt of an
executed copy of the escrow agreement or closing documentation confirming
investments and cash flows.

r: The `r' highlights derivative, hybrid, and certain other obligations that
Standard & Poor's believes may experience high volatility or high variability
in expected returns as a result of noncredit risks. Examples of such
obligations are securities with principal or interest return indexed to
equities, commodities, or currencies; certain swaps and options; and
interest-only and principal-only mortgage securities. The absence of an `r'
symbol should not be taken as an indication that an obligation will exhibit
no volatility or variability in total return.

N.R. Not rated.

Debt obligations of issuers outside the United States and its territories are
rated on the same basis as domestic corporate and municipal issues. The
ratings measure the creditworthiness of the obligor but do not take into
account currency exchange and related uncertainties.

Bond Investment Quality Standards

Under present commercial bank regulations issued by the Comptroller of the
Currency, bonds rated in the top four categories (`AAA', `AA', `A', `BBB',
commonly known as investment-grade ratings) generally are regarded as
eligible for bank investment. Also, the laws of various states governing
legal investments impose certain rating or other standards for obligations
eligible for investment by savings banks, trust companies, insurance
companies, and fiduciaries in general.

SHORT-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS
Short-term ratings are generally assigned to those obligations considered
short-term in the relevant market. In the U.S., for example, that means
obligations with an original maturity of no more than 365 days-including
commercial paper.

A-1: A short-term obligation rated "A-1" is rated in the highest category by
Standard & Poor's. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation is strong. Within this category, certain obligations are
designated with a plus sign (+). This indicates that the obligor's capacity
to meet its financial commitment on these obligations is extremely strong.

A-2: A short-term obligation rated "A-2" is somewhat more susceptible to the
adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than
obligations in higher rating categories. However, the obligor's capacity to
meet its financial commitment on the obligation is satisfactory.

A-3: A short-term obligation rated "A-3" exhibits adequate protection
parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances
are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its
financial commitment on the obligation.

B: A short-term obligation rated "B" is regarded as having significant
speculative characteristics. The obligor currently has the capacity to meet
its financial commitment on the obligation; however, it faces major ongoing
uncertainties which could lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet
its financial commitment on the obligation.

C: A short-term obligation rated "C" is currently vulnerable to nonpayment
and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions
for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

D: A short-term obligation rated "D" is in payment default. The "D" rating
category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due
even if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor's
believes that such payments will be made during such grace period. The "D"
rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the
taking of a similar action if payments on an obligation are jeopardized.

Notes. A Standard & Poor's note rating reflects the liquidity factors and
market access risks unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will
likely receive a note rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most
likely receive a long-term debt rating. The following criteria will be used
in making that assessment:
o.....Amortization schedule-the larger the final maturity relative to other
      maturities, the more likely it will
      be treated as a note; and
o     Source of payment-the more dependent the issue is on the market for its
      refinancing, the more likely
      it will be treated as a note.

SP-1: Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue with a very
strong capacity to pay debt service is given a (+) designation.

SP-2: Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some
vulnerability to adverse financial and economic changes over the term of the
notes.

SP-3: Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest.


Fitch, Inc.
International credit ratings assess the capacity to meet foreign currency or
local currency commitments. Both "foreign currency" and "local currency"
ratings are internationally comparable assessments. The local currency rating
measures the probability of payment within the relevant sovereign state's
currency and jurisdiction and therefore, unlike the foreign currency rating,
does not take account of the possibility of foreign exchange controls
limiting transfer into foreign currency.

INTERNATIONAL LONG-TERM CREDIT RATINGS
The following ratings scale applies to foreign currency and local currency
ratings.
Investment Grade:

AAA: Highest Credit Quality. "AAA" ratings denote the lowest expectation of
credit risk. They are assigned only in the case of exceptionally strong
capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. This capacity is highly
unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events.

AA: Very High Credit Quality. "AA" ratings denote a very low expectation of
credit risk. They indicate a very strong capacity for timely payment of
financial commitments. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to
foreseeable events.

A: High Credit Quality. "A" ratings denote a low expectation of credit risk.
The capacity for timely payment of financial commitments is considered
strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to changes in
circumstances or in economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

BBB: Good Credit Quality. "BBB" ratings indicate that there is currently a
low expectation of credit risk. The capacity for timely payment of financial
commitments is considered adequate, but adverse changes in circumstances and
in economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. This is the
lowest investment-grade category.

Speculative Grade:

BB: Speculative. "BB" ratings indicate that there is a possibility of credit
risk developing, particularly as the result of adverse economic change over
time. However, business or financial alternatives may be available to allow
financial commitments to be met. Securities rated in this category are not
investment grade.

B: Highly Speculative. "B" ratings indicate that significant credit risk is
present, but a limited margin of safety remains. Financial commitments are
currently being met. However, capacity for continued payment is contingent
upon a sustained, favorable business and economic environment.

CCC, CC C: High Default Risk.  Default is a real possibility. Capacity for
meeting financial commitments is solely reliant upon sustained, favorable
business or economic developments. A "CC" rating indicates that default of
some kind appears probable. "C" ratings signal imminent default.

DDD, DD, and D: Default. The ratings of obligations in this category are
based on their prospects for achieving partial or full recovery in a
reorganization or liquidation of the obligor. While expected recovery values
are highly speculative and cannot be estimated with any precision, the
following serve as general guidelines. "DDD" obligations have the highest
potential for recovery, around 90%-100% of outstanding amounts and accrued
interest. "DD" indicates potential recoveries in the range of 50%-90%, and
"D" the lowest recovery potential, i.e., below 50%.

Entities rated in this category have defaulted on some or all of their
obligations. Entities rated "DDD" have the highest prospect for resumption of
performance or continued operation with or without a formal reorganization
process. Entities rated "DD" and "D" are generally undergoing a formal
reorganization or liquidation process; those rated "DD" are likely to satisfy
a higher portion of their outstanding obligations, while entities rated "D"
have a poor prospect for repaying all obligations.
Plus (+) and minus (-) signs may be appended to a rating symbol to denote
relative status within the major rating categories.  Plus and minus signs are
not added to the "AAA" category or to categories below "CCC," nor to
short-term ratings other than "F1" (see below).

INTERNATIONAL SHORT-TERM CREDIT RATINGS
The following ratings scale applies to foreign currency and local currency
ratings. A short-term rating has a time horizon of less than 12 months for
most obligations, or up to three years for U.S. public finance securities,
and thus places greater emphasis on the liquidity necessary to meet financial
commitments in a timely manner.

F1: Highest credit quality. Strongest capacity for timely payment of
financial commitments. May have an added "+" to denote any exceptionally
strong credit feature.

F2: Good credit quality. A satisfactory capacity for timely payment of
financial commitments, but the margin of safety is not as great as in the
case of higher ratings.

F3: Fair credit quality. Capacity for timely payment of financial commitments
is adequate. However, near-term adverse changes could result in a reduction
to non-investment grade.

B: Speculative. Minimal capacity for timely payment of financial commitments,
plus vulnerability to near-term adverse changes in financial and economic
conditions.

C: High default risk. Default is a real possibility. Capacity for meeting
financial commitments is solely reliant upon a sustained, favorable business
and economic environment.

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.
1 In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, the term
"Independent Trustees" in this Statement of Additional Information refers to
those Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Fund and the Trust and
who do not have any direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of
the distribution plan or any agreement under the plan.

2 Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.
3 In the case of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund, a
continuously-offered closed-end fund, references to contingent deferred sales
charges mean the Fund's Early Withdrawal Charges and references to
"redemptions" mean "repurchases" of shares.
4 An "employee benefit plan" means any plan or arrangement, whether or not it
is "qualified" under the Internal Revenue Code, under which Class N shares of
an Oppenheimer fund or funds are purchased by a fiduciary or other
administrator for the account of participants who are employees of a single
employer or of affiliated employers. These may include, for example, medical
savings accounts, payroll deduction plans or similar plans. The fund accounts
must be registered in the name of the fiduciary or administrator purchasing
the shares for the benefit of participants in the plan.
5 The term "Group Retirement Plan" means any qualified or non-qualified
retirement plan for employees of a corporation or sole proprietorship,
members and employees of a partnership or association or other organized
group of persons (the members of which may include other groups), if the
group has made special arrangements with the Distributor and all members of
the group participating in (or who are eligible to participate in) the plan
purchase shares of an Oppenheimer fund or funds through a single investment
dealer, broker or other financial institution designated by the group. Such
plans include 457 plans, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs, SIMPLE plans and 403(b) plans
other than plans for public school employees. The term "Group Retirement
Plan" also includes qualified retirement plans and non-qualified deferred
compensation plans and IRAs that purchase shares of an Oppenheimer fund or
funds through a single investment dealer, broker or other financial
institution that has made special arrangements with the Distributor.
6 However, that concession will not be paid on purchases of shares in amounts
of $1 million or more (including any right of accumulation) by a Retirement
Plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class C
shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds held by the Plan for more than one
year.
7 This provision does not apply to IRAs.
8 This provision only applies to qualified retirement plans and 403(b)(7)
custodial plans after your separation from service in or after the year you
reached age 55.
9 The distribution must be requested prior to Plan termination or the
elimination of the Oppenheimer funds as an investment option under the Plan.
10 This provision does not apply to IRAs.
11 This provision does not apply to loans from 403(b)(7) custodial plans and
loans from the OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.
12 This provision does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the
participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.

OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers
--------------------------------------------------------------

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class
A shares2 of the Oppenheimer funds or the contingent deferred sales charge
that may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.3  That is
because of the economies of sales efforts realized by OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., (referred to in this document as the "Distributor"), or by
dealers or other financial institutions that offer those shares to certain
classes of investors.

Not all waivers apply to all funds. For example, waivers relating to
Retirement Plans do not apply to Oppenheimer municipal funds, because shares
of those funds are not available for purchase by or on behalf of retirement
plans. Other waivers apply only to shareholders of certain funds.

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds,
the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
         1) plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
            Revenue Code,
         2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
         3) employee benefit plans4
         4) Group Retirement Plans5
         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.
 Applicability of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in Certain Cases
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Purchases of Class A Shares of Oppenheimer Funds That Are Not Subject to
Initial Sales Charge but May Be Subject to the Class A Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge (unless a waiver applies).

      There is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of any
of the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases
may be subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed
within 18 months (24 months in the case of Oppenheimer Rochester National
Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals) of the beginning of the calendar
month of their purchase, as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver
described elsewhere in this Appendix applies to the redemption).
Additionally, on shares purchased under these waivers that are subject to the
Class A contingent deferred sales charge, the Distributor will pay the
applicable concession described in the Prospectus under "Class A Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge."6 This waiver provision applies to:
      Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
      Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
         purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
         deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
         (other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
         costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
         eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
         certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
         purchases of $200,000 or more.
      Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the
         purchases are made:
         1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser
            that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those
            purchases, or
         2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified
            Retirement Plan if the administrator of that Plan has made
            special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
      Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
         following record-keeping arrangements:
         1) The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner &
            Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the
            Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
            record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
            must have $3 million or more of its assets invested in (a) mutual
            funds, other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch
            Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available
            under a Service Agreement between Merrill Lynch and the mutual
            fund's principal underwriter or distributor, and  (b)  funds
            advised or managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b)
            are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
         2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a
            daily valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are
            provided under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement
            Plan and Merrill Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
            record keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
            must have $3 million or more of its assets (excluding assets
            invested in money market funds) invested in Applicable
            Investments.
         3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a
            service agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date the plan
            sponsor signs that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible
            employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion
            manager).

         Code), in each case if those purchases are made through a broker,
         agent or other financial intermediary that has made special
         arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
      A TRAC-2000 401(k) plan (sponsored by the former Quest for Value
         Advisors) whose Class B or Class C shares of a Former Quest for
         Value Fund were exchanged for Class A shares of that Fund due to the
         termination of the Class B and Class C TRAC-2000 program on November

            arrangements with the Distributor.
         11)      Plan termination or "in-service distributions," if the
            redemption proceeds are rolled over directly to an
            OppenheimerFunds-sponsored IRA.

   Waivers of Class B, Class C and Class N Sales Charges of Oppenheimer Funds
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Class B, Class C and Class N contingent deferred sales charges will not
be applied to shares purchased in certain types of transactions or redeemed
in certain circumstances described below.

A. Waivers for Redemptions in Certain Cases.

The Class B, Class C and Class N contingent deferred sales charges will be
waived for redemptions of shares in the following cases:
      Shares redeemed involuntarily, as described in "Shareholder Account
         Rules and Policies," in the applicable Prospectus.
      Redemptions from accounts other than Retirement Plans following the
         death or disability of the last surviving shareholder. The death or
         disability must have occurred after the account was established, and
         for disability you must provide evidence of a determination of
         disability by the Social Security Administration.
      The contingent deferred sales charges are generally not waived
         following the death or disability of a grantor or trustee for a
         trust account. The contingent deferred sales charges will only be
         waived in the limited case of the death of the trustee of a grantor
         trust or revocable living trust for which the trustee is also the
         sole beneficiary. The death or disability must have occurred after
         the account was established, and for disability you must provide

Additional Information of the Oppenheimer funds are modified as described
below for certain persons who were shareholders of the former Quest for Value
Funds.  To be eligible, those persons must have been shareholders on November
24, 1995, when OppenheimerFunds, Inc. became the investment advisor to those
former Quest for Value Funds.  Those funds include:
   Oppenheimer Quest Value Fund, Inc.           Oppenheimer Small Cap Value
   Fund
   Oppenheimer Quest Balanced Value Fund        Oppenheimer Quest

      All of the funds listed above are referred to in this Appendix as the

Oppenheimer fund that are either:
      acquired by such shareholder pursuant to an exchange of shares of an
         Oppenheimer fund that was one of the Former Quest for Value Funds,
         or

      For purchases by Associations having 50 or more eligible employees or
members, there is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares, but
those shares are subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge
described in the applicable fund's Prospectus.

      Purchases made under this arrangement qualify for the lower of either
the sales charge rate in the table based on the number of members of an
Association, or the sales charge rate that applies under the Right of
Accumulation described in the applicable fund's Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information. Individuals who qualify under this arrangement for
reduced sales charge rates as members of Associations also may purchase
shares for their individual or custodial accounts at these reduced sales
charge rates, upon request to the Distributor.

shares purchased by the following investors are not subject to any Class A
initial or contingent deferred sales charges:

            Quest for Value Funds by merger of a portfolio of the AMA Family
            of Funds.
o     Shareholders who acquired shares of any Former Quest for Value Fund by
            merger of any of the portfolios of the Unified Funds.

      Waiver of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge in Certain

redemptions of Class A shares purchased by the following investors who were
shareholders of any Former Quest for Value Fund:

      Investors who purchased Class A shares from a dealer that is or was not
permitted to receive a sales load or redemption fee imposed on a shareholder
with whom that dealer has a fiduciary relationship, under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and regulations adopted under that law.

      Waivers for Redemptions of Shares Purchased Prior to March 6, 1995.  In

purchased prior to March 6, 1995 in connection with:
o     withdrawals under an automatic withdrawal plan holding only either

            annually, and
o     liquidation of a shareholder's account if the aggregate net asset value

Former Quest for Value Fund merged. Those shares must have been purchased on
or after March 6, 1995, but prior to November 24, 1995:
o     redemptions following the death or disability of the shareholder(s) (as
            evidenced by a determination of total disability by the U.S.

to make additional purchases of Class A shares at net asset value without a
Class A initial sales charge, but subject to the Class A contingent deferred
sales charge that was in effect prior to March 18, 1996 (the "prior Class A
CDSC"). Under the prior Class A CDSC, if any of those shares are redeemed
within one year of purchase, they will be assessed a 1% contingent deferred
sales charge on an amount equal to the current market value or the original
purchase price of the shares sold, whichever is smaller (in such redemptions,
any shares not subject to the prior Class A CDSC will be redeemed first).

      Those shareholders who are eligible for the prior Class A CDSC are:

            the Fund's policies on Combined Purchases or Rights of
            Accumulation, who still hold those shares in that Fund or other
            Former Connecticut Mutual Funds, and
         2) persons whose intended purchases under a Statement of Intention
            entered into prior to March 18, 1996, with the former general
            distributor of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds to purchase
            shares valued at $500,000 or more over a 13-month period entitled
            those persons to purchase shares at net asset value without being
            subject to the Class A initial sales charge

      Any of the Class A shares of a Fund and the other Former Connecticut
Mutual Funds that were purchased at net asset value prior to March 18, 1996,
remain subject to the prior Class A CDSC, or if any additional shares are
purchased by those shareholders at net asset value pursuant to this
arrangement they will be subject to the prior Class A CDSC.

      Class A Sales Charge Waivers. Additional Class A shares of a Fund may
be purchased without a sales charge, by a person who was in one (or more) of
the categories below and acquired Class A shares prior to March 18, 1996, and
still holds Class A shares:
         1) any purchaser, provided the total initial amount invested in the
            Fund or any one or more of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds

            the Combined Purchases, Statement of Intention and Rights of
            Accumulation features available at the time of the initial
            purchase and such investment is still held in one or more of the
            Former Connecticut Mutual Funds or a Fund into which such Fund
            merged;
         2) any participant in a qualified plan, provided that the total

            more;
         3) Directors of the Fund or any one or more of the Former
            Connecticut Mutual Funds and members of their immediate families;
         4) employee benefit plans sponsored by Connecticut Mutual Financial
            Services, L.L.C. ("CMFS"), the prior distributor of the Former
            Connecticut Mutual Funds, and its affiliated companies;
         5) one or more members of a group of at least 1,000 persons (and
            persons who are retirees from such group) engaged in a common
            business, profession, civic or charitable endeavor or other
            activity, and the spouses and minor dependent children of such
            persons, pursuant to a marketing program between CMFS and such
            group; and

            Funds, provided the institution had an agreement with CMFS.

      Purchases of Class A shares made pursuant to (1) and (2) above may be
subject to the Class A CDSC of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds described

charge by any holder of a variable annuity contract issued in New York State

Account which is beyond the applicable surrender charge period and which was
used to fund a qualified plan, if that holder exchanges the variable annuity
contract proceeds to buy Class A shares of the Fund.
