The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

     WHAT  IS  THE  FUND'S   INVESTMENT   OBJECTIVE?   The  Fund  seeks  capital
appreciation consistent with preservation of principal,  while providing current
income.


     WHAT DOES THE FUND  MAINLY  INVEST  IN? The Fund  invests  mainly in equity
securities  of issuers in the U.S. and foreign  countries.  Some of those equity
securities  are expected to pay  dividends  which  produce  income for the Fund.
Currently, the Fund emphasizes its investments in stocks, but may invest in debt
securities  when the Fund's  investment  manager,  OppenheimerFunds,  Inc.  (the
"Manager"),  deems  appropriate.  The Fund is not  required  to  invest  any set
percentage  of its  assets  for  growth or  income.  The Fund can  invest in any
country,  including  developed or emerging  markets,  but  currently  emphasizes
investments  in  developed  markets.  As a  fundamental  policy,  the Fund  will
normally invest in at least four countries (including the United States).


     The  Fund  can  invest  in   securities   of   corporate   issuers  in  all
capitalization  ranges. The Fund currently invests a substantial  portion of its
assets in small- and mid-sized  companies whose prices may be more volatile than
stocks issued by larger  companies.  These  investments are more fully explained
below.


     HOW DOES THE PORTFOLIO  MANAGER  DECIDE WHAT  SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL? In
selecting  securities  for the Fund, the portfolio  manager looks  primarily for
companies  with high growth  potential in the U.S.  and foreign  markets that he
believes  have  reasonably  priced  stocks in relation to overall  stock  market
valuations.  Currently the portfolio  manager looks for stocks to provide growth
opportunities,  such as companies in industries with substantial barriers to new
competition,  such as high start-up costs, that may have competitive  advantages
over established companies in those industries.

     In applying  these and other  selection  criteria,  the  portfolio  manager
considers  the effect of  worldwide  trends on the  growth of  various  business
sectors,  and looks for  companies  that may  benefit  from global  trends.  The
trends,  or "global themes,"  currently  considered  include  development of new
technologies,   corporate  restructuring,  the  growth  of  mass  affluence  and
demographic changes. The portfolio manager does not invest a fixed amount of the
Fund's assets  according to these themes,  and this strategy and the themes that
are considered may change over time.


     WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED FOR? The Fund is designed  primarily for investors
seeking  capital growth in their  investment over the long term from a fund that
normally has substantial foreign investments.  Those investors should be willing
to assume the risks of short-term share price  fluctuations that are typical for
a fund focusing on stock investments and foreign  securities.  Although the Fund
invests in stocks that produce income, the income will likely be small, so it is
not designed for  investors  needing  income.  Because of its focus on long-term
growth,  the Fund may be  appropriate  for some  portion  of a  retirement  plan
investment  for  investors  with a  high-risk  tolerance,  but is not a complete
investment program.

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund
All  investments  carry risks to some degree.  The Fund's  investments  are
subject to changes in their  value from a number of  factors,  described  below.
There is also the risk that poor security  selection by the Fund's  Manager will
cause the Fund to underperform other funds having a similar objective.


     RISKS OF INVESTING IN STOCKS.  Because the Fund currently invests primarily
in common stocks,  the value of the Fund's portfolio will be affected by changes
in the stock markets. Stocks fluctuate in price, and their short-term volatility
at times may be great.  That  volatility is likely to be even greater for stocks
issued  by  small-and  mid-sized  companies  in  which  the  Fund  may  invest a
substantial  amount of its assets.  Market risk will affect the Fund's net asset
values per share,  which will  fluctuate  as the values of the Fund's  portfolio
securities  change.  The Fund's  emphasis  of growth  stocks can also  result in
higher volatility, as explained below under "Growth Stock Investments."


     A variety of factors  can  affect the price of a  particular  stock and the
prices of individual  stocks do not all move in the same direction  uniformly or
at the same time.  Different  stock  markets  may behave  differently  from each
other.  Other  factors  can  affect a  particular  stock's  price,  such as poor
earnings  reports  by the  issuer,  loss of major  customers,  major  litigation
against the issuer, or changes in government regulations affecting the issuer or
its industry.

     Industry  Focus. At times,  the Fund may increase the relative  emphasis of
its  investments  in a  particular  industry.  Stocks of issuers in a particular
industry  may  be  affected  by  changes  in  economic  conditions,   government
regulations,  availability of basic resources or supplies,  or other events that
affect  that  industry  more than  others.  To the extent  the Fund has  greater
emphasis on  investments  in a  particular  industry  using its "global  themes"
strategy,  its share values may fluctuate in response to events  affecting  that
industry.

     Risks of Growth Investing.  Stocks of growth companies,  particularly newer
companies,  may offer opportunities for greater capital  appreciation but may be
more  volatile  than  stocks  of  larger,  more  established  companies.  If the
company's  earnings  growth or stock price fails to  increase as  expected,  the
stock price of a growth company may decline sharply.

     Special Risks of Stocks Issued by Small- and Mid-Sized Companies. While the
Fund can invest in securities of any capitalization  range, it may emphasize its
investments in small- and medium-cap companies (currently, those having a market
capitalization  less  than  $2  billion  and $9  billion,  respectively).  These
companies can include both established and newer  companies.  While newer growth
companies  might  offer  greater  opportunities  for capital  appreciation  than
larger, more established companies,  they involve substantially greater risks of
loss and price fluctuations than larger issuers.

     Stocks of small- and mid-sized  companies may have limited product lines or
markets for their products, limited access to financial resources and less depth
in management skill than larger, more established companies. Their stocks may be
less liquid than those of larger issuers. That means the Fund could have greater
difficulty  selling  their  securities  at an  acceptable  price,  especially in
periods of market volatility.  That factor increases the potential for losses to
the  Fund.  Also,  it may take a  substantial  period  of time  before  the Fund
realizes a gain on an investment in the stocks of a small- or mid-sized company,
if it realizes any gain at all.


     To the extent that a fund invests  significantly  in small-cap  securities,
because those securities may be traded infrequently, investors may seek to trade
fund shares  based on their  knowledge  or  understanding  of the value of those
types of  securities  (this is  sometimes  referred  to as  "price  arbitrage").
Certain  Oppenheimer  funds that invest a significant  amount of their assets in
small-cap  securities  impose a 2% redemption  fee in certain  circumstances  to
attempt to deter such  price  arbitrage.  Such  price  arbitrage,  if  otherwise
successful,  might interfere with the efficient management of a fund's portfolio
to a greater  degree than would be the case for funds that invest in more liquid
securities,  because the fund may have  difficulty  selling those  securities at
advantageous  times or prices to satisfy the liquidity  requirements  created by
large and/or frequent trading  activity.  Successful price arbitrage  activities
might also dilute the value of fund shares held by other shareholders.


     Investing  in  Special  Situations.   Periodically,   the  Fund  might  use
aggressive  investment  techniques.  These might include seeking to benefit from
what  the  portfolio  manager  perceives  to be  "special  situations,"  such as
mergers,  reorganizations,  restructurings  or other unusual events  expected to
affect a  particular  issuer.  However,  there is a risk in investing in special
situations that the change or event might not occur, which could have a negative
impact on the price of the issuer's securities.  The Fund's investment might not
produce the expected gains or could incur a loss for the portfolio.

     Cyclical Opportunities. The Fund may also seek to take advantage of changes
in the business  cycle by investing  in  companies  that are  sensitive to those
changes if the  Manager  believes  they have  growth  potential.  The Fund might
sometimes  seek to take  tactical  advantage of short-term  market  movements or
events affecting  particular issuers or industries.  There is a risk that if the
event does not occur as  expected,  the value of the stock could fall,  which in
turn could depress the Fund's share prices.

     RISKS OF FOREIGN  INVESTING.  While  foreign  securities  may offer special
investment opportunities, there are also special risks. The change in value of a
foreign  currency  against  the U.S.  dollar will result in a change in the U.S.
dollar value of securities denominated in that foreign currency. Foreign issuers
are not subject to the same  accounting  and disclosure  requirements  that U.S.
companies are subject to.

     The value of  foreign  investments  may be  affected  by  exchange  control
regulations,  expropriation or  nationalization  of a company's assets,  foreign
taxes, delays in settlement of transactions, changes in governmental economic or
monetary policy in the U.S. or abroad,  or other political and economic factors.
These risks could cause the prices of foreign stocks to fall and could therefore
depress the Fund's share prices.

     Special  Risks of Emerging  Markets.  While the Fund  currently  focuses on
investing in  developed  markets,  it can also invest in emerging or  developing
markets.  Securities  of issuers in emerging  and  developing  markets may offer
special  investment  opportunities,  but present  risks not found in more mature
markets.  Those  securities may be more difficult to sell at an acceptable price
and their  prices  may be more  volatile  than  securities  of  issuers  in more
developed  markets.  Settlements  of trades may be subject to greater  delays so
that the Fund might not receive the proceeds of a sale of a security on a timely
basis. These investments may be very speculative.

     These  countries  might have less developed  trading markets and exchanges.
Emerging market  countries may have less developed legal and accounting  systems
and  investments  may be subject to greater risks of government  restrictions on
withdrawing  the sale  proceeds of  securities  from the  country.  Economies of
developing countries may be more dependent on relatively few industries that may
be  highly  vulnerable  to local and  global  changes.  Governments  may be more
unstable and present greater risks of nationalization or restrictions on foreign
ownership of stocks of local companies.

     HOW RISKY IS THE FUND OVERALL?  The risks described above collectively form
the  overall  risk  profile of the Fund,  and can affect the value of the Fund's
investments,  its  investment  performance  and its price per share.  Particular
investments and investment strategies also have risks. These risks mean that you
can lose money by investing in the Fund.  When you redeem your shares,  they may
be worth more or less than what you paid for them.  There is no  assurance  that
the Fund will achieve its investment objective.  In the short term, domestic and
foreign stock markets can be volatile, and the price of the Fund's shares can go
up and down substantially.  In the OppenheimerFunds spectrum, the Fund generally
may be less volatile than funds focusing on  investments in emerging  markets or
small-cap  stock  funds,  but the Fund has  greater  risks than funds that focus
solely on large-cap domestic stocks.

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


The Fund's Past Performance

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

 The after-tax returns for the other classes of shares will vary.

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



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

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


     For the period from 1/1/07 through  12/31/07,  the cumulative return before
taxes for Class A shares was 3.58%.

     During  the  period  shown  in the  bar  chart,  the  highest  return  (not
annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was 32.45% (4th Qtr '99) and the
lowest return (not  annualized)  before taxes for a calendar quarter was -25.26%
(3rd Qtr '02).

     The Fund's average annual total returns include  applicable  sales charges:
for Class A, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B, the
contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-years);  and for Class
C and Class N, the 1% contingent  deferred  sales charge for the 1-year  period.
There is no sales charge for Class Y shares.  Because Class B shares  convert to
Class A shares 72 months after  purchase,  Class B  "life-of-class"  performance
does  not  include  any  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  and  uses  Class A
performance for the period after conversion. The returns measure the performance
of a  hypothetical  account and assume  that all  dividends  and  capital  gains
distributions  have been reinvested in additional shares. The performance of the
Fund's  shares is compared to the Morgan  Stanley  Capital  International,  Inc.
(MSCI)  World  IndexSM,  an  unmanaged  index of  issuers  listed  on the  stock
exchanges of 20 foreign  countries and the U.S. The index  performance  includes
reinvestment of income but does not reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses or
taxes. The Fund's investments vary from those in the index.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund


     The  following  tables are  provided  to help you  understand  the fees and
expenses  you may pay if you buy and hold  shares of the  Fund.  The Fund pays a
variety of expenses  directly  for  management  of its  assets,  administration,
distribution  of its shares and other  services.  Those  expenses are subtracted
from the Fund's assets to calculate  the Fund's net asset values per share.  All
shareholders  therefore pay those expenses  indirectly.  Shareholders  pay other
transaction  expenses  directly,  such as sales  charges.  The numbers below are
based on the Fund's expenses during its fiscal year ended September 30, 2007.

     Expenses may vary in future years.  "Other expenses" include transfer agent
fees,  custodial fees, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund pays. The
Transfer  Agent has  voluntarily  undertaken  to the Fund to limit the  transfer
agent fees to 0.35% of average daily net assets per fiscal year for all classes.
That  undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time. For the Fund's fiscal
year  ended  September  30,  2007,  the  transfer  agent fees did not exceed the
expense limitation described above.

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

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

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

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

     5. The  redemption  fee  applies to the  proceeds  of Fund  shares that are
redeemed  (either by selling the shares or exchanging them for shares of another
Oppenheimer fund) within 30 days of their purchase. See "How to Sell Shares" for
more information on when the redemption fee will apply.




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

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

     In the first example, expenses include the initial sales charge for Class A
and the  applicable  Class B,  Class C and  Class N  contingent  deferred  sales
charges.  In the second example,  the Class A expenses include the sales charge,
but Class B, Class C and Class N expenses  do not  include  contingent  deferred
sales  charges.  There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.  * Class B expenses
for  years 7  through  10 are  based on Class A  expenses  since  Class B shares
automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase.

About the Fund's Investments


     THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL  INVESTMENT  POLICIES AND RISKS. The allocation of the
Fund's portfolio among different  investments will vary over time based upon the
Manager's  evaluation of economic and market trends.  The Fund's portfolio might
not always include all of the different  types of investments  described in this
prospectus.  To seek growth, the Fund will invest primarily in common stocks and
may invest in securities convertible into common stocks as well.


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

     However,  changes in the overall market prices of securities and the income
they pay can occur at any time.  The share  prices of the Fund will change daily
based on changes in market prices of  securities  and market  conditions  and in
response to other  economic  events.  The  Statement of  Additional  Information
contains  more detailed  information  about the Fund's  investment  policies and
risks.

     Growth Stock  Investments.  In selecting stocks for their growth potential,
the Fund may buy stocks of established  foreign and domestic  companies that are
entering a growth cycle in their  business,  as well as newer companies that may
be developing  new products or services,  expanding into new markets or products
or developing new technologies. Current examples include companies in the fields
of telecommunications, computer software, and new consumer products.

     Growth   companies  may  be  applying  new  technology,   new  or  improved
distribution  techniques  or  developing  new services that might enable them to
capture a dominant or important market position. They may have a special area of
expertise or the capability to take advantage of changes in demographic  factors
in a more profitable way than competitors.

     Growth  companies  tend to  retain  a  large  part of  their  earnings  for
research,  development or investment in capital assets.  Therefore,  they do not
tend to emphasize paying dividends, and may not pay any dividends for some time.
They are  selected  for the Fund's  portfolio  because the Manager  believes the
price of their stock will  increase over the long term.  However,  growth stocks
may be more  volatile  than other  stock  investments.  They may lose favor with
investors if the issuer's business plans do not produce the expected results, or
if growth  investing  falls out of favor with  investors.  Growth  stocks may be
subject to more volatility  because of investor  speculation  about the issuer's
prospects.

     Foreign Securities.  The foreign securities the Fund can buy include stocks
and other equity  securities of companies  organized under the laws of a foreign
country or companies  that have a  substantial  portion of their  operations  or
assets abroad, or derive a substantial  portion of their revenue or profits from
businesses,  investments or sales outside the U.S.  Foreign  securities  include
securities  traded  primarily  on  foreign  securities  exchanges  or in foreign
over-the-counter  markets.  See the "Main Risks" section above for a description
of some of the  risks  associated  with  foreign  investing  and  investment  in
emerging market countries.

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


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


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

     Debt Securities.  When market  conditions are conducive for the opportunity
to seek  current  income,  the  Fund  will  invest  in debt  securities  such as
government and corporate  bonds.  The Fund may also invest in debt securities to
moderate  volatility.  The Fund's  investments in debt  securities  include U.S.
government securities,  foreign government securities,  and foreign and domestic
corporate bonds and  debentures.  The debt securities the Fund buys may be rated
by nationally  recognized rating organizations or they may be unrated securities
assigned an equivalent credit rating by the Manager.  The Fund's investments may
be above or below investment grade in credit quality.

     The  Fund  can buy  U.S.  Treasury  securities  and  securities  issued  or
guaranteed  by agencies or  instrumentalities  of the U.S.  government,  such as
collateralized   mortgage   obligations   (CMOs)   and  other   mortgage-related
securities.  Mortgage-related  securities  are  subject to  additional  risks of
unanticipated  prepayments  of the  underlying  mortgages,  which can affect the
income stream to the Fund from those securities as well as their values.

     The Fund's foreign debt  investments can be denominated in U.S.  dollars or
in  foreign   currencies   and  can  include   "Brady  Bonds."  Those  are  U.S.
dollar-denominated  debt securities  collateralized by zero-coupon U.S. Treasury
securities. They are typically issued by governments of developing countries and
may have volatile prices and greater risks of default.

     o Credit Risk. Debt  securities are subject to credit risk.  Credit risk is
the risk that the issuer of a security  might not make  interest  and  principal
payments  on the  security  as they  become  due.  If the  issuer  fails  to pay
interest,  the Fund's  income  might be reduced,  and if the issuer fails to pay
principal,  the  value of that  bond and of the  Fund's  shares  might  fall.  A
downgrade in an issuer's credit rating or other adverse news about an issuer can
reduce the market value of that issuer's securities.

     o Interest Rate Risk.  The values of debt  securities are subject to change
when prevailing  interest rates change. When prevailing interest rates fall, the
values  of  already-issued  debt  securities  generally  rise.  When  prevailing
interest  rates rise, the values of  already-issued  debt  securities  generally
fall.  The  magnitude  of these  fluctuations  will  often be  greater  for debt
securities  having longer  maturities  than for  shorter-term  debt  securities.
Securities  that  have  been  "stripped"  of  their  interest  coupons  are very
sensitive to interest  rate  changes.  The Fund's share prices can go up or down
when interest  rates change because of the effect of the changes on the value of
the Fund's investments in debt securities.

     o Special Credit Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. The Fund can invest up to
25% of its assets in "lower-grade"  securities,  commonly known as "junk bonds."
However,  the Fund  currently  does not  intend to  invest  more than 15% of its
assets in lower-grade securities.

     Higher-yielding  lower-grade bonds, whether rated or unrated,  have greater
risks than  investment-grade  securities.  They may be subject to greater market
fluctuations  and risk of loss of income  and  principal  than  investment-grade
securities.  There may be less of a market  for  them,  making it harder to sell
them at an acceptable price. There is a relatively greater  possibility that the
issuer's  earnings  may be  insufficient  to make the  payments of interest  and
principal due on the bonds. These risks mean that the Fund might not achieve the
expected income from lower-grade  securities and that the Fund's net asset value
per share could fall because of declines in the value of these securities.

     Other Equity  Investments.  The Fund invests mainly in common stocks issued
by domestic or foreign  companies  that the Manager  believes have  appreciation
potential.  Equity  securities  include  common  stocks,  preferred  stocks  and
securities convertible into common stock. The Manager considers some convertible
securities to be "equity  equivalents"  because of the conversion feature and in
that case their credit rating has less impact on the investment decision than in
the case of other debt securities.

     Zero-Coupon  and "Stripped"  Securities.  Some of the U.S.  government debt
securities  the Fund buys are  zero-coupon  bonds that pay no  interest  and are
issued at a substantial  discount from their face value.  "Stripped"  securities
are the  separate  income  or  principal  components  of a debt  security.  Some
mortgage  related  securities  may be  stripped,  with each  component  having a
different proportion of principal or interest payments.  One class might receive
all the interest and the other all the principal payments.

     Zero-coupon and stripped securities are subject to greater  fluctuations in
price from interest rate changes than interest-bearing  securities. The Fund may
have to pay out the imputed income on zero-coupon  securities  without receiving
the actual cash  currently.  Interest-only  and  principal-only  securities  are
particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates.

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

     Derivative Investments.  The Fund can invest in a number of different kinds
of  "derivative"  investments  to  seek  increased  returns  or to try to  hedge
investment  risks.  It does not do so  currently  to a  significant  degree.  In
general  terms,  a derivative  investment  is one whose value  depends on (or is
derived from) the value of an underlying asset, interest rate or index. Options,
futures, and forward contracts are examples of derivatives.

     o  There  are  Special  Risks  in  Using  Derivative  Investments.  Markets
underlying securities and indices may move in a direction not anticipated by the
Manager.  Interest rate and stock market changes in the U.S. and abroad may also
influence the performance of  derivatives.  If the issuer of the derivative does
not pay the amount due,  the Fund can lose money on the  investment.  Also,  the
underlying  security or  investment on which the  derivative  is based,  and the
derivative  itself,  may not perform the way the Manager expected it to perform.
If that happens, the Fund's share prices could decline.

     The Fund has limits on the amount of particular types of derivatives it can
hold.  However,  using  derivatives  can  cause  the  Fund to lose  money on its
investments  and/or increase the volatility of its share prices.  As a result of
these risks the Fund could realize less  principal or income from the investment
than expected. Certain derivative investments held by the Fund may be illiquid.

     Hedging.  The Fund can buy and sell  certain  derivatives,  such as forward
contracts,  futures  contracts,  and put and call  options,  for use as "hedging
instruments." The Fund does not use hedging instruments for speculative purposes
and is not  required to hedge in seeking its  objective.  The Fund has limits on
its use of hedging  instruments and currently does not use them to a significant
degree.

     The Fund  could  hedge for a number of  purposes.  It might  hedge  against
changes in  securities  prices,  or to  establish a position  in the  securities
market as a temporary substitute for purchasing individual securities.  It might
hedge against  changing  interest  rates.  Buying futures and call options would
tend  to  increase  the  Fund's  exposure  to the  securities  markets.  Forward
contracts  can be used to try to manage  foreign  currency  risks on the  Fund's
foreign investments.

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


     Investments  By "Funds of Funds." Class Y shares of the Fund are offered as
an  investment  to certain  Oppenheimer  funds that act as "funds of funds." The
Fund's Board of Trustees has approved  making the Fund's shares  available as an
investment for those funds.  From time to time,  those funds of funds may invest
significant  portions  of their  assets in  shares  of the  Fund,  and may own a
significant  amount of the  Fund's  outstanding  shares or  outstanding  Class Y
shares.  Those funds of funds typically use asset  allocation  strategies  under
which they may  increase or reduce the amount of their  investments  in the Fund
frequently, and may do so on a daily basis during volatile market conditions. If
the  size  of  those  purchases  and  redemptions  of  the  Fund's  shares  were
significant  relative  to the  size of the  Fund's  assets,  the  Fund  could be
required to purchase or sell portfolio  securities,  increasing its  transaction
costs and possibly reducing its performance for all share classes. For a further
discussion  of the possible  effects of frequent  trading in the Fund's  shares,
please refer to the section titled "Are There Limitations on Frequent Purchases,
Redemptions and Exchanges?" in this prospectus.

     Portfolio  Turnover.  The Fund's  investment  process may cause the Fund to
engage  in  active  and  frequent  trading.  Therefore,  the Fund may  engage in
short-term  trading  while trying to achieve its  objective  and may have a high
portfolio turnover rate (for example,  over 100%).  Increased portfolio turnover
creates  higher  brokerage  and  transaction  costs for the Fund (and may reduce
performance).  If the Fund  realizes  capital  gains when it sells its portfolio
investments,  it must generally pay those gains out to shareholders,  increasing
their taxable  distributions.  The Financial Highlights table at the end of this
prospectus shows the Fund's portfolio turnover rates during prior fiscal years.

     Investments  in Oppenheimer  Institutional  Money Market Fund. The Fund can
invest its free cash  balances  in Class E shares of  Oppenheimer  Institutional
Money Market Fund,  to provide  liquidity or for  defensive  purposes.  The Fund
invests in Oppenheimer  Institutional  Money Market Fund rather than  purchasing
individual  short-term  investments  to try to seek a higher yield than it could
obtain on its own.  Oppenheimer  Institutional Money Market Fund is a registered
open-end management  investment company,  regulated as a money market fund under
the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended and is part of the  Oppenheimer
Family  of  Funds.  It  invests  in  a  variety  of  short-term,   high-quality,
dollar-denominated  money  market  instruments  issued  by the U.S.  Government,
domestic  and foreign  corporations,  other  financial  institutions,  and other
entities.  Those  investments  may  have  a  higher  rate  of  return  than  the
investments  that would be  available  to the Fund  directly.  At the time of an
investment,  the Manager cannot always predict what the yield of the Oppenheimer
Institutional  Money  Market  Fund  will  be  because  of the  wide  variety  of
instruments  that fund holds in its portfolio.  The return on those  investments
may, in some cases,  be lower than the return that would have been  derived from
other types of investments that would provide liquidity.  As a shareholder,  the
Fund will be subject to its  proportional  share of the expenses of  Oppenheimer
Institutional  Money Market  Fund's Class E shares,  including its advisory fee.
However,  the  Manager  will waive a portion of the Fund's  advisory  fee to the
extent  of the  Fund's  share  of the  advisory  fee  paid  to  the  Manager  by
Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund.

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


     Loans of  Portfolio  Securities.  The Fund may make loans of its  portfolio
securities, with a value not to exceed 25% of its net assets, in accordance with
policies  approved by the Fund's  Board.  The Fund has entered into a securities
lending  agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank,  N.A.  ("JPMorgan  Chase") for that
purpose.  Under the agreement,  the Fund's portfolio securities may be loaned to
brokers,  dealers and  financial  institutions,  provided that such loans comply
with the  collateralization  and other  requirements  of the securities  lending
agreement,  the Fund's policies and applicable government regulations.  JPMorgan
Chase has agreed,  in general,  to bear the risk that a borrower  may default on
its  obligation  to  return  loaned  securities.   However,  the  Fund  will  be
responsible  for  risks  associated  with  the  investment  of cash  collateral,
including  the risk of a default  by the  issuer  of a  security  in which  cash
collateral  has been  invested.  If that occurs,  the Fund may incur  additional
costs in  seeking  to  obtain  the  collateral  or may lose  the  amount  of the
collateral  investment.  The  Fund  may  also  lose  money  if the  value of the
investments purchased with cash collateral decreases.

     PORTFOLIO   HOLDINGS.   The  Fund's  portfolio  holdings  are  included  in
semi-annual  and annual reports that are distributed to shareholders of the Fund
within 60 days  after the close of the  period  for which  such  report is being
made.  The Fund also  discloses  its  portfolio  holdings in its  Statements  of
Investments  on Form N-Q,  which  are filed  with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  no later than 60 days after the close of its first and third  fiscal
quarters.  These required  filings are publicly  available at the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Therefore, portfolio holdings of the Fund are made publicly
available  no later than 60 days  after the close of each of the  Fund's  fiscal
quarters.

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


How the Fund Is Managed

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


     The Manager has been an investment  adviser since 1960. The Manager and its
subsidiaries and controlled  affiliates managed more than $260 billion in assets
as of December  31, 2007,  including  other  Oppenheimer  funds with more than 6
million  shareholder  accounts.  The  Manager is located at Two World  Financial
Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1008.

     Advisory Fees. Under the investment advisory  agreement,  the Fund pays the
Manager an advisory  fee,  calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund, at an
annual rate that declines on additional  assets as the Fund grows:  0.80% of the
first $250 million of average  annual net assets of the Fund,  0.77% of the next
$250  million,  0.75% of the next $500  million,  0.69% of the next $1  billion,
0.67% of the next  $1.5  billion,  0.65% of the next $2.5  billion  and 0.63% of
average annual net assets in excess of $6.0 billion. The $6.0 billion breakpoint
was added to the Fund's investment  advisory agreement by an amendment that took
effect  January  1,  2007.  The Fund's  advisory  fee for the fiscal  year ended
September  30,  2007,  was 0.69% of average  annual net assets for each class of
shares.

     A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees' approval of the
Fund's investment  advisory contract is available in the Fund's Annual Report to
shareholders for the year ended September 30, 2007.

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

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


     Buying Shares  Through Your Dealer.  You can buy shares through any dealer,
broker or financial institution that has a sales agreement with the Distributor.
Your dealer will place your order with the Distributor on your behalf.  A broker
or dealer may charge a processing fee for that service. Your account information
will be shared  with the  dealer you  designate  as the dealer of record for the
account.

     Buying Shares Through the  Distributor.  Complete an  OppenheimerFunds  new
account  application  and return it with a check  payable  to  "OppenheimerFunds
Distributor,  Inc." Mail it to P.O. Box 5270, Denver,  Colorado 80217. If you do
not list a dealer on the  application,  Class A shares  are your  only  purchase
option.  The  Distributor  will act as your  agent  in  buying  Class A  shares.
However,  we recommend that you discuss your investment with a financial adviser
before  you make a  purchase  to be sure that the Fund is  appropriate  for you.
Class B,  Class C or  Class N  shares  may not be  purchased  by a new  investor
directly  from  the  Distributor   without  the  investor   designating  another
registered   broker-dealer.   If  a  current  investor  no  longer  has  another
broker-dealer of record for an existing Class B, Class C or Class N account, the
Distributor is  automatically  designated as the  broker-dealer  of record,  but
solely for the purpose of acting as the investor's agent to purchase the shares.

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

     WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT YOU MUST INVEST? In most cases, you can buy Fund
shares  with  a  minimum  initial  investment  of  $1,000  and  make  additional
investments  at any time  with as  little as $50.  There  are  reduced  minimums
available under the following  special  investment plans: o If you establish one
of the many types of retirement plan accounts that OppenheimerFunds offers, more
fully  described  below under  "Special  Investor  Services," you can start your
account  with as little as $500.  o By using an Asset  Builder Plan or Automatic
Exchange  Plan  (details are in the  Statement of  Additional  Information),  or
government  allotment plan, you can make an initial  investment for as little as
$500.  The minimum  subsequent  investment  is $50,  except that for any account
established  under one of these plans  prior to  November  1, 2002,  the minimum
additional  investment will remain $25. o A minimum  initial  investment of $250
applies  to  certain  fee  based  programs  that  have  an  agreement  with  the
Distributor.  The minimum subsequent investment for those programs is $50. o The
minimum investment  requirement does not apply to reinvesting dividends from the
Fund or other  Oppenheimer  funds (a list of them  appears in the  Statement  of
Additional Information,  or you can ask your dealer or call the Transfer Agent),
or  reinvesting  distributions  from  unit  investment  trusts  that  have  made
arrangements with the Distributor.

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


     AT WHAT PRICE ARE SHARES  SOLD?  Shares  are sold at their  offering  price
which is the net asset  value per  share  plus any  initial  sales  charge  that
applies.  The offering  price that  applies to a purchase  order is based on the
next  calculation  of the net  asset  value  per  share  that is made  after the
Distributor receives the purchase order at its offices in Colorado, or after any
agent appointed by the Distributor  receives the order.  Your financial  adviser
can provide you with more  information  regarding  the time you must submit your
purchase order and whether the adviser is an authorized agent for the receipt of
purchase orders.


     Net Asset Value.  The Fund  calculates the net asset value of each class of
shares  as of the close of the  NYSE,  on each day the NYSE is open for  trading
(referred to in this prospectus as a "regular  business day"). The NYSE normally
closes at 4:00 p.m.,  Eastern  time,  but may close  earlier  on some days.  All
references to time in this prospectus are to "Eastern time."

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


     The Board has adopted  valuation  procedures for the Fund and has delegated
the day-to-day  responsibility  for fair value  determinations  to the Manager's
Valuation  Committee.  Fair value  determinations  by the Manager are subject to
review,  approval and  ratification  by the Board at its next scheduled  meeting
after the fair valuations are determined.  In determining whether current market
prices are readily available and reliable,  the Manager monitors the information
it receives in the ordinary course of its investment management responsibilities
for  significant  events  that it  believes in good faith will affect the market
prices of the  securities of issuers held by the Fund.  Those may include events
affecting  specific issuers (for example, a halt in trading of the securities of
an issuer on an exchange during the trading day) or events affecting  securities
markets (for  example,  a foreign  securities  market  closes early because of a
natural  disaster).  The Fund uses fair value pricing procedures to reflect what
the  Manager  and the Board  believe to be more  accurate  values for the Fund's
portfolio securities, although it may not always be able to accurately determine
such values. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value
assigned to a security if it were to sell the security at the same time at which
the Fund determines its net asset value per share.  In addition,  the discussion
of "time-zone  arbitrage"  describes  effects that the Fund's fair value pricing
policy is intended to counteract.

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

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


     The Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, the
Distributor or its designated  agent must receive your order,  in proper form as
described  in this  prospectus,  by the time the NYSE  closes  that day. If your
order is received  on a day when the NYSE is closed or after it has closed,  the
order will receive the next offering  price that is determined  after your order
is received.

     Buying Through a Dealer.  If you buy shares  through an authorized  dealer,
your dealer  must  receive the order by the close of the NYSE for you to receive
that day's offering  price.  If your order is received on a day when the NYSE is
closed or after it is closed,  the order will  receive the next  offering  price
that is determined.


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

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


     Class B Shares.  If you buy Class B shares,  you pay no sales charge at the
time of purchase,  but you will pay an annual  asset-based  sales charge. If you
sell  your  shares  within 6 years of  buying  them,  you  will  normally  pay a
contingent  deferred sales charge.  That contingent deferred sales charge varies
depending  on how long you own your  shares,  as  described  in "How Can You Buy
Class B Shares?" below.

     Class C Shares.  If you buy Class C shares,  you pay no sales charge at the
time of purchase,  but you will pay an annual  asset-based  sales charge. If you
sell your  shares  within 12 months of  buying  them,  you will  normally  pay a
contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%, as described in "How Can You Buy Class
C Shares?" below.

Class N  Shares.  If you buy  Class N shares  (available  only  through  certain
retirement plans), you pay no sales charge at the time of purchase, but you will
pay an annual asset-based sales charge. If you sell your shares within 18 months
of the  retirement  plan's  first  purchase  of  Class N  shares,  you may pay a
contingent deferred sales charge of 1.0%, as described in "How Can You Buy Class
N Shares?"  below.  Class Y Shares.  Class Y shares are offered  only to certain
institutional investors that have a special agreement with the Distributor.


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

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


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

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

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


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


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

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

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


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


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

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

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

 less than $1 million
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to rounding,  the actual sales charge for a particular  transaction may
be higher or lower than the rates listed above.


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


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


     o Right of  Accumulation.  To qualify for the reduced  Class A sales charge
that would apply to a larger purchase than you are currently making (as shown in
the table above),  you can add the value of shares you or your spouse  currently
own or  purchases  you are  currently  making to the value of your Class A share
purchase.  You may  count  Class A,  Class B and  Class C shares of the Fund and
other Oppenheimer funds and Class A, Class B, Class C, Class G and Class H units
in advisor  sold  Section 529 plans,  for which the  Manager or the  Distributor
serves as the  Program  Manager or Program  Distributor.  Your Class A shares of
Oppenheimer  Money Market Fund,  Inc. or Oppenheimer  Cash Reserves on which you
have not paid a sales charge will not be counted for this  purpose.  In totaling
your holdings,  you may count shares held in your individual accounts (including
IRAs, 403(b) plans and advisor sold Section 529 plans), your joint accounts with
your spouse,  or accounts you or your spouse hold as trustees or  custodians  on
behalf of your  children  who are  minors.  A  fiduciary  can  count all  shares
purchased  for a trust,  estate or other  fiduciary  account  that has  multiple
accounts  (including  employee  benefit plans for the same employer and Single K
Plans for the benefit of a sole proprietor).

     If you are  buying  shares  directly  from the Fund,  you must  inform  the
Distributor  of your  eligibility  and holdings at the time of your  purchase in
order to qualify for the Right of Accumulation. If you are buying shares through
your  financial   intermediary  you  must  notify  your   intermediary  of  your
eligibility for the Right of Accumulation at the time of your purchase. You must
notify the Distributor or your financial intermediary of any qualifying 529 plan
holdings.

     To count  eligible  shares  held in  accounts  at other  firms,  you may be
requested to provide the Distributor or your financial  intermediary with a copy
of all account  statements  showing current holdings of the Fund, other eligible
Oppenheimer  funds or qualifying  529 plans,  as described  above.  To determine
which Class A sales  charge rate you qualify for on your current  purchase,  the
Distributor or  intermediary  through which you are buying shares will calculate
the value of your eligible shares based on their current offering price.

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

     The total amount of your  intended  purchases  will  determine  the reduced
sales  charge rate that will apply to your Class A share  purchases  of the Fund
during the 13-month period. If you do not complete the purchases outlined in the
Letter of Intent,  the front-end sales charge you paid on your purchases will be
recalculated  to reflect  the actual  value of shares you  purchased.  A certain
portion of your shares will be held in escrow by the Fund's  Transfer  Agent for
this  purpose.  Please  refer to "How to Buy  Shares - Letters of Intent" in the
Fund's Statement of Additional  Information for more complete  information.  You
may also be able to apply the Right of Accumulation to these purchases.


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

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

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

     o  Reinvestment  Privilege.  Within six months of a  redemption  of certain
Class A and Class B shares,  the proceeds may be reinvested in Class A shares of
the Fund,  or any of the other  Oppenheimer  funds into which shares of the Fund
may be exchanged,  without a sales charge. This privilege applies to redemptions
of Class A shares  that were  subject to an initial  sales  charge or Class A or
Class B shares that were  subject to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge when
redeemed.  The  investor  must ask the  Transfer  Agent or his or her  financial
intermediary  for that privilege at the time of  reinvestment  and must identify
the account from which the redemption was made. This reinvestment privilege does
not apply to reinvestment purchases made through automatic investment options.

     o Other Special Reductions and Waivers.  The Fund and the Distributor offer
additional  arrangements  to reduce or eliminate  front-end  sales charges or to
waive  contingent  deferred sales charges for certain types of transactions  and
for certain  categories of investors  (primarily  retirement plans that purchase
shares in special  programs  through the  Distributor).  These are  described in
greater  detail in Appendix B to the  Statement of Additional  Information.  The
Fund's   Statement  of  Additional   Information   may  be  ordered  by  calling
1.800.225.5677  or may be accessed  through  the  OppenheimerFunds  website,  at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com  (under the heading "I Want To,"  follow the  hyperlink
"Access  Fund  Documents"  and click on the icon in the column "SAI" next to the
Fund's  name).   A  description  of  these  waivers  and  special  sales  charge
arrangements  is also  available  for  viewing on the  OppenheimerFunds  website
(under the heading  "Fund  Information,"  click on the  hyperlink  "Sales Charge
Waivers").  To  receive  a waiver or  special  sales  charge  rate  under  these
programs,  the  purchaser  must  notify  the  Distributor  (or  other  financial
intermediary  through which shares are being purchased) at the time of purchase,
or must notify the Transfer  Agent at the time of  redeeming  shares for waivers
that apply to contingent deferred sales charges.

     Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge.  There is no initial sales charge
on Class A share  purchases  totaling  $1  million or more of one or more of the
Oppenheimer  funds.  However,  those  Class A shares  may be  subject  to a 1.0%
contingent  deferred  sales  charge  if they are  redeemed  within  an  18-month
"holding  period"  measured  from the  beginning of the calendar  month of their
purchase (except for shares in certain retirement plans,  described below). That
sales charge will be calculated on the lesser of the original net asset value of
the redeemed  shares or the aggregate net asset value of the redeemed  shares at
the time of redemption.

     o The Class A  contingent  deferred  sales  charge does not apply to shares
purchased by the  reinvestment  of dividends or capital gain  distributions  and
will not exceed the aggregate  amount of the concessions the Distributor pays on
all of your  purchases of Class A shares,  of all  Oppenheimer  funds,  that are
subject to the contingent deferred sales charge.

     The Distributor  pays  concessions  from its own resources equal to 1.0% of
Class A  purchases  of $1  million  or more  (other  than  purchases  by certain
retirement  plans).  The  concession  will not be paid on  shares  purchased  by
exchange or shares that were previously  subject to a front-end sales charge and
dealer concession.

     o Class A Purchases by Certain  Retirement Plans. There is no initial sales
charge on  purchases of Class A shares of the Fund by certain  retirement  plans
that have $1  million  or more in plan  assets or that are part of a  retirement
plan or platform offered by banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors, insurance
companies or  recordkeepers.  There is no  contingent  deferred  sales charge on
redemptions of any group  retirement plan shares  purchased after March 1, 2007,
or  certain  retirement  plan  shares  offered  through  banks,  broker-dealers,
financial advisors, insurance companies or recordkeepers.

     Until  March  1,  2007,  the  Distributor  paid a  concession  from its own
resources on purchases by certain group  retirement  plans that were established
prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered  retirement plans").  Shares purchased in
grandfathered  retirement  plans  prior to March 1,  2007  will  continue  to be
subject to the contingent  deferred sales charge if they are redeemed  within 18
months after purchase.  Beginning March 1, 2007, the Distributor  will not pay a
concession on new share purchases by retirement plans (except plans that have $5
million or more in plan assets) and no new group  retirement plan purchases will
be subject to the  contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  including  purchases in
grandfathered retirement plans. For shares purchased prior to March 1, 2007, the
concession  for  grandfathered  retirement  plans was  0.75% of the  first  $2.5
million  of  purchases  plus  0.25% of  purchases  in  excess  of $2.5  million.
Effective March 1, 2007, the concession for grandfathered retirement accounts is
0.25%.

     For retirement plans that have $5 million or more in plan assets within the
first six months from the time the account was established,  the Distributor may
pay dealers of record  concessions equal to 0.25% of the purchase price of Class
A shares from its own resources at the time of sale.  Those payments are subject
to certain  exceptions  described  in  "Retirement  Plans" in the  Statement  of
Additional Information.


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

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

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Years Since Beginning of Month in       Contingent Deferred Sales Charge on
Which Purchase Order was Accepted       Redemptions in That Year
                                        (As % of Amount Subject to Charge)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 - 1                                   5.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 - 2                                   4.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 - 3                                   3.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - 5                                   2.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 - 6                                   1.0%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More than 6                             None
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

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

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

     Class N shares are sold at net asset value without an initial sales charge.
A contingent  deferred  sales charge of 1.0% will be imposed upon the redemption
of Class N shares, if:

     o The  group  retirement  plan  is  terminated  or  Class N  shares  of all
Oppenheimer funds are terminated as an investment option of the plan and Class N
shares are redeemed  within 18 months after the plan's first purchase of Class N
shares of any Oppenheimer fund, or

     o With respect to an IRA or 403(b) plan, Class N shares are redeemed within
18 months of the  plan's  first  purchase  of Class N shares of any  Oppenheimer
fund.


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


     WHO CAN BUY CLASS Y SHARES?  Class Y shares are sold at net asset value per
share  without a sales  charge  directly to  institutional  investors  that have
special  agreements  with the  Distributor  for this  purpose.  They may include
insurance companies, registered investment companies, employee benefit plans and
Section 529 plans, among others.  Individual investors cannot buy Class Y shares
directly.

     An  institutional  investor  that buys  Class Y shares  for its  customers'
accounts  may impose  charges on those  accounts.  The  procedures  for  buying,
selling,  exchanging and  transferring the Fund's other classes of shares (other
than the time those orders must be received by the Distributor or Transfer Agent
at  their  Colorado  office)  and the  special  account  features  available  to
investors  buying those other  classes of shares do not apply to Class Y shares.
Instructions for buying, selling, exchanging or transferring Class Y shares must
be submitted  by the  institutional  investor,  not by its  customers  for whose
benefit the shares are held.

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS.


     Service  Plan for Class A Shares.  The Fund has adopted a Service  Plan for
Class A shares that  reimburses  the  Distributor  for a portion of the costs of
providing  services  to  Class A  shareholder  accounts.  The Fund  makes  these
payments quarterly, based on an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual
net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor  currently uses all of
those fees to pay dealers,  brokers,  banks and other financial institutions for
providing  personal  service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
hold Class A shares.

     Prior to March 1, 2007, the  Distributor  paid the first year's service fee
in  advance  for  shares  purchased  in  grandfathered  retirement  plans and it
retained the service fee from the Fund with  respect to those shares  during the
first year after their  purchase.  After the shares were held by a grandfathered
retirement plan for a year, the Distributor  paid the ongoing service fee to the
dealer of record on a periodic  basis.  For shares  purchased  in  grandfathered
plans on or after March 1, 2007,  the  Distributor  does not make any payment in
advance and does not retain the service fee for the first year.


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

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

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

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

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

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


     For  certain  group  retirement  plans  held  in  omnibus   accounts,   the
Distributor may pay the full Class C or Class N asset-based sales charge and the
service fee to the dealer beginning in the first year after the purchase of such
shares in lieu of paying the dealer the sales  concession and the advance of the
first year's  service fee at the time of purchase.  New group  omnibus plans may
not purchase Class B shares.

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

     OTHER  PAYMENTS TO  FINANCIAL  INTERMEDIARIES  AND SERVICE  PROVIDERS.  The
Manager and the Distributor,  in their discretion, also may pay dealers or other
financial   intermediaries   and  service  providers  for  distribution   and/or
shareholder servicing  activities.  These payments are made out of the Manager's
and/or the Distributor's own resources,  including from the profits derived from
the advisory fees the Manager receives from the Fund. These cash payments, which
may be substantial,  are paid to many firms having business  relationships  with
the Manager and Distributor.  These payments are in addition to any distribution
fees, servicing fees, or transfer agency fees paid directly or indirectly by the
Fund to these financial  intermediaries and any commissions the Distributor pays
to these firms out of the sales charges paid by investors. These payments by the
Manager or Distributor  from their own resources are not reflected in the tables
in the section called "Fees and Expenses of the Fund" in this prospectus because
they are not paid by the Fund.


     "Financial  intermediaries"  are firms that  offer and sell Fund  shares to
their clients, or provide shareholder services to the Fund, or both, and receive
compensation  for doing so. Your  securities  dealer or financial  adviser,  for
example,  is a financial  intermediary,  and there are other types of  financial
intermediaries  that receive  payments  relating to the sale or servicing of the
Fund's shares.  In addition to dealers,  the financial  intermediaries  that may
receive payments include sponsors of fund "supermarkets,"  sponsors of fee-based
advisory  or wrap fee  programs,  sponsors  of college  and  retirement  savings
programs, banks and trust companies offering products that hold Fund shares, and
insurance  companies  that offer  variable  annuity or variable  life  insurance
products.


     In general,  these payments to financial  intermediaries can be categorized
as    "distribution-related"    or    "servicing"    payments.    Payments   for
distribution-related  expenses,  such as marketing or promotional expenses,  are
often referred to as "revenue  sharing." Revenue sharing payments may be made on
the basis of the sales of shares  attributable  to that dealer,  the average net
assets of the Fund and other Oppenheimer  funds  attributable to the accounts of
that dealer and its  clients,  negotiated  lump sum  payments  for  distribution
services provided, or sales support fees. In some circumstances, revenue sharing
payments may create an incentive for a dealer or financial  intermediary  or its
representatives  to recommend  or offer shares of the Fund or other  Oppenheimer
funds  to its  customers.  These  payments  also  may  give an  intermediary  an
incentive to  cooperate  with the  Distributor's  marketing  efforts.  A revenue
sharing payment may, for example, qualify the Fund for preferred status with the
intermediary receiving the payment or provide representatives of the Distributor
with access to representatives of the intermediary's  sales force, in some cases
on a  preferential  basis  over  funds  of  competitors.  Additionally,  as firm
support,   the  Manager  or  Distributor  may  reimburse   expenses  related  to
educational  seminars and "due  diligence"  or training  meetings (to the extent
permitted by applicable laws or the rules of the Financial  Industry  Regulatory
Authority  (FINRA),  formerly  known as the NASD)  designed  to  increase  sales
representatives' awareness about Oppenheimer funds, including travel and lodging
expenditures.  However, the Manager does not consider a financial intermediary's
sale of shares of the Fund or other  Oppenheimer funds when selecting brokers or
dealers to effect portfolio transactions for the funds.


     Various  factors  are used to  determine  whether to make  revenue  sharing
payments.  Possible  considerations  include,  without limitation,  the types of
services  provided by the  intermediary,  sales of Fund shares,  the  redemption
rates on  accounts of clients of the  intermediary  or overall  asset  levels of
Oppenheimer funds held for or by clients of the intermediary, the willingness of
the  intermediary to allow the  Distributor to provide  educational and training
support for the  intermediary's  sales  personnel  relating  to the  Oppenheimer
funds, the  availability of the Oppenheimer  funds on the  intermediary's  sales
system,  as  well  as the  overall  quality  of  the  services  provided  by the
intermediary   and  the   Manager  or   Distributor's   relationship   with  the
intermediary.  The Manager and Distributor have adopted guidelines for assessing
and implementing  each prospective  revenue sharing  arrangement.  To the extent
that financial intermediaries receiving  distribution-related  payments from the
Manager or Distributor sell more shares of the Oppenheimer  funds or retain more
shares  of the funds in their  client  accounts,  the  Manager  and  Distributor
benefit from the incremental management and other fees they receive with respect
to those assets.

     Payments may also be made by the Manager,  the  Distributor or the Transfer
Agent  to  financial   intermediaries   to  compensate  or  reimburse  them  for
administrative  or other client services  provided such as  sub-transfer  agency
services for shareholders or retirement plan participants, omnibus accounting or
sub-accounting,   participation  in  networking  arrangements,  account  set-up,
recordkeeping  and other  shareholder  services.  Payments  may also be made for
administrative  services  related to the distribution of Fund shares through the
intermediary.  Firms that may receive  servicing  fees include  retirement  plan
administrators,  qualified tuition program sponsors,  banks and trust companies,
and others.  These fees may be used by the service  provider to offset or reduce
fees that would otherwise be paid directly to them by certain  account  holders,
such as retirement plans.


     The Statement of Additional  Information  contains more  information  about
revenue  sharing and service  payments  made by the Manager or the  Distributor.
Your dealer may charge you fees or commissions in addition to those disclosed in
this  prospectus.  You  should ask your  dealer or  financial  intermediary  for
details about any such payments it receives from the Manager or the  Distributor
and their affiliates, or any other fees or expenses it charges.

How to Sell Shares


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


     Redemption  Fee.  The Fund imposes a 2%  redemption  fee on the proceeds of
Fund shares that are  redeemed  within 30 days of their  purchase.  The fee also
applies in the case of shares redeemed in exchange transactions.  The redemption
fee is collected by the Transfer  Agent and paid to the Fund.  It is intended to
help offset the trading, market impact, and administrative costs associated with
short-term money movements into and out of the Fund, and to help deter excessive
short term trading.  The fee is imposed to the extent that Fund shares  redeemed
exceed Fund shares that have been held more than 30 days. For shares of the Fund
that were acquired by exchange, the holding period is measured from the date the
shares were acquired in the exchange  transaction.  Shares held the longest will
be redeemed first.

      The redemption fee is not imposed on shares:


     o held in omnibus accounts of certain financial  intermediaries,  such as a
broker-dealer  or a retirement  plan  fiduciary if those  institutions  have not
implemented  the  system  changes  necessary  to be capable  of  processing  the
redemption fee. However,  account holders whose investments in the Fund are held
in omnibus  accounts  through  certain  other  financial  intermediaries  may be
subject to the redemption fee on terms that are generally in accordance with the
redemption fee terms in this prospectus but that may differ in certain  details.
For certain  retirement plans treated as omnibus accounts by the Fund's Transfer
Agent, the redemption fee may be charged on participant  initiated  exchanges or
redemptions.  Shares held in retirement plans that are not in omnibus  accounts,
such as  Oppenheimer-sponsored  retirement plans,  IRAs, and 403(b)(7) plans are
also  subject to the  redemption  fee. You should  consult  with your  financial
intermediary  or retirement  plan  provider for more details on this  redemption
fee;

     o held by  investors  in  certain  asset  allocation  programs  that  offer
automatic  re-balancing or wrap-fee or similar fee-based  programs and that have
been identified to the Distributor and the Transfer Agent;

     o  redeemed  for  rebalancing   transactions  under  the   OppenheimerFunds
Portfolio Builder program;

     o redeemed pursuant to an OppenheimerFunds automatic withdrawal plan;

     o redeemed due to the death or disability of the shareholder;

     o redeemed as part of an automatic  dividend exchange election  established
in advance of the exchange;

     o redeemed to pay fees  assessed by the Fund or the Transfer  Agent against
the account;

     o  redeemed  from  accounts  for which  the  dealer,  broker  or  financial
institution  of record has entered into an agreement with the  Distributor  that
permits such  redemptions  without the  imposition of these fees,  such as asset
allocation programs;

     o redeemed for  conversion  of Class B shares to Class A shares or pursuant
to fund mergers; and

     o involuntary redemptions resulting from failure to meet account minimums.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o a U.S. national securities exchange, a registered securities  association
or a clearing agency.

     If you are  signing  on  behalf  of a  corporation,  partnership  or  other
business or as a fiduciary, you must also include your title in the signature.

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

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

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

Use the following address for            Send courier or express mail
requests by mail:                        requests to:
OppenheimerFunds Services                OppenheimerFunds Services
P.O. Box 5270                            10200 E. Girard Avenue, Building D
Denver, Colorado 80217                   Denver, Colorado 80231

     HOW DO YOU SELL SHARES BY TELEPHONE?  You and your dealer representative of
record may also sell your shares by telephone.  To receive the redemption  price
calculated on a particular  regular  business day, your call must be received by
the  Transfer  Agent by the close of the NYSE that day,  which is normally  4:00
p.m.  Eastern time,  but may be earlier on some days.  You may not redeem shares
held in an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored qualified retirement plan account or under
a share certificate by telephone.

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

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

Are There Limits on Amounts Redeemed by Telephone?

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

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

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

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

   1. shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
      distributions,
   2. shares held for the holding period that applies to the class, and
   3. shares held the longest during the holding period.

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

How to Exchange Shares

     If you want to change all or part of your  investment  from one Oppenheimer
fund to another,  you can  exchange  your shares for shares of the same class of
another  Oppenheimer fund that offers the exchange privilege.  For example,  you
can exchange Class A shares of the Fund only for Class A shares of another fund.
To exchange shares, you must meet several conditions:

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

     o The selected fund must offer the exchange privilege.

     o You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the selected fund.

     o  Generally,  exchanges  may be made only between  identically  registered
accounts,  unless all account owners send written exchange  instructions  with a
signature guarantee.

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

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

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

     A contingent  deferred sales charge (CDSC) is not charged when you exchange
shares of the Fund for  shares of  another  Oppenheimer  fund.  However,  if you
exchange  your shares during the  applicable  CDSC holding  period,  the holding
period will carry over to the fund shares that you  acquire.  Similarly,  if you
acquire  shares of the Fund in exchange for shares of another  Oppenheimer  fund
that are subject to a CDSC holding  period,  that holding period will carry over
to the acquired shares of the Fund. In either of these situations, a CDSC may be
imposed if the acquired  shares are redeemed  before the end of the CDSC holding
period that applied to the exchanged shares.

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

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

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

     Telephone and Internet Exchange  Requests.  Telephone exchange requests may
be made  either by calling a service  representative  or by using  PhoneLink  by
calling  1.800.225.5677.  You  may  submit  internet  exchange  requests  on the
OppenheimerFunds  internet website, at  www.oppenheimerfunds.com.  You must have
obtained  a user  I.D.  and  password  to make  transactions  on  that  website.
Telephone  and/or internet  exchanges may be made only between accounts that are
registered   with  the  same  name(s)  and  address.   Shares  for  which  share
certificates have been issued may not be exchanged by telephone or the internet.

     Automatic  Exchange Plan.  Shareholders can authorize the Transfer Agent to
exchange  a  pre-determined   amount  of  shares  automatically  on  a  monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis.

     Please refer to "How to Exchange  Shares" in the  Statement  of  Additional
Information for more details.

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON FREQUENT PURCHASES, REDEMPTIONS AND EXCHANGES?


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


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

     o Timing of Exchanges. Exchanged shares are normally redeemed from one fund
and the proceeds are  reinvested  in the fund  selected for exchange on the same
regular  business  day on  which  the  Transfer  Agent or its  agent  (such as a
financial  intermediary holding the investor's shares in an "omnibus" or "street
name" account) receives an exchange request that conforms to these policies. The
request  must be received  by the close of the NYSE that day,  which is normally
4:00 p.m.  Eastern  time,  but may be earlier on some days,  in order to receive
that day's net asset value on the exchanged  shares.  Exchange requests received
after the close of the NYSE will  receive  the next net asset  value  calculated
after  the  request  is  received.   However,   the  Transfer  Agent  may  delay
transmitting  the proceeds  from an exchange for up to five  business days if it
determines,  in its  discretion,  that an earlier  transmittal of the redemption
proceeds  to the  receiving  fund would be  detrimental  to either the fund from
which the  exchange  is being made or the fund into which the  exchange is being
made. The proceeds will be invested in the fund into which the exchange is being
made at the next net asset value calculated after the proceeds are received.  In
the event that such a delay in the reinvestment of proceeds occurs, the Transfer
Agent will notify you or your financial representative.


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

     o Exchanges  of Client  Accounts by  Financial  Advisers.  The Fund and the
Transfer Agent permit dealers and financial  intermediaries  to submit  exchange
requests on behalf of their customers  (unless that authority has been revoked).
A fund or the Transfer Agent may limit or refuse exchange requests  submitted by
financial intermediaries if, in the Transfer Agent's judgment,  exercised in its
discretion,  the exchanges  would be disruptive to any of the funds  involved in
the transaction.

     o  Redemptions  of Shares.  These  exchange  policy  limits do not apply to
redemptions of shares.  Shareholders are permitted to redeem their shares on any
regular business day, subject to the terms of this prospectus. The Fund assesses
a 2% fee on the proceeds of Fund shares that are redeemed or exchanged within 30
days after their purchase in certain circumstances. Further details are provided
under "How to Sell Shares."


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

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

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

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

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

     Additional  Policies  and  Procedures.  The Fund's  Board has  adopted  the
following  additional  policies and  procedures  to detect and prevent  frequent
and/or excessive exchanges and purchase and redemption activity:

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

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

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

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

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


Shareholder Account Rules and Policies

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

     A $12 annual "Minimum  Balance Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a
value of less than $500. The fee is automatically  deducted from each applicable
Fund account annually in September.  See the Statement of Additional Information
to learn how you can avoid this fee and for  circumstances  under which this fee
will not be assessed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes


     DIVIDENDS.  The Fund intends to declare and pay  dividends  separately  for
each class of shares from net  investment  income on an annual basis.  Dividends
and  distributions  paid to Class A and Class Y shares will  generally be higher
than  dividends  for Class B, Class C and Class N shares,  which  normally  have
higher expenses than Class A and Class Y shares.  The Fund has no fixed dividend
rate and cannot guarantee that it will pay any dividends or distributions.


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

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

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

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

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

     Reinvest Your Distributions in Another  OppenheimerFunds  Account.  You can
reinvest all  distributions  in the same class of shares of another  Oppenheimer
fund,  if that  fund is  available  for  exchanges  and if you  have an  account
established in that fund.


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

     If more than 50% of the Fund's assets are invested in foreign securities at
the end of any fiscal year,  the Fund may elect under the Internal  Revenue Code
to permit shareholders to take a credit or deduction on their federal income tax
returns for foreign taxes paid by the Fund.


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


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

     Avoid  "Buying a  Distribution."  If you buy  shares on or just  before the
ex-dividend date, or just before the Fund declares a capital gains distribution,
you will pay the full  price for the  shares  and then  receive a portion of the
price back as a taxable dividend or capital gain.  Remember,  There May be Taxes
on  Transactions.  Because the Fund's  share  prices  fluctuate,  you may have a
capital gain or loss when you sell or exchange  your  shares.  A capital gain or
loss is the  difference  between the price you paid for the shares and the price
you received  when you sold them.  Any capital gain is subject to capital  gains
tax. Returns of Capital Can Occur. In certain cases,  distributions  made by the
Fund may be considered a non-taxable return of capital to shareholders.  If that
occurs, it will be identified in notices to shareholders.

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

Financial Highlights

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

ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

      The  investment  objective,  the principal  investment  policies and the
main risks of the Fund are  described  in the  Prospectus.  This  Statement of
Additional Information contains supplemental  information about those policies
and risks 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  that 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 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.

      In selecting securities for the Fund's portfolio, the Manager evaluates
the merits of particular equity and fixed-income securities primarily through
the exercise of its own investment analysis. That process may include, among
other things, evaluation of the issuer's historical operations, prospects for
the industry of which the issuer is part, the issuer's financial condition,
its pending product developments and business (and those of competitors), the
effect of general market and economic conditions on the issuer's business,
and legislative proposals that might affect the issuer.

|X|   Investments in Equity Securities. The Fund focuses its investments in
equity securities of both U.S. companies and foreign countries. Equity
securities include common stocks, preferred stocks, rights and warrants, and
securities convertible into common stock.  The Fund's investments can include
stocks of companies in any market capitalization range, if the Manager
believes the investment is consistent with the Fund's objective, including
the preservation of principal.  Certain equity securities may be selected not
only for their appreciation possibilities but because they may provide
dividend income.

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


o     Growth Companies.  The Fund may invest in securities of "growth"
companies.  Growth companies are those companies that the Manager believes
are entering into a growth cycle in their business, with the expectation that
their stock will increase in value.  They may be|X|    established companies
as well as newer companies in the development stage.  Growth companies may
have a variety of characteristics that in the Manager's view define them as
"growth" issuers.

      They may be generating or applying new technologies, new or improved
distribution techniques or new services. They may own or develop natural
resources.  They may be companies that can benefit from changing consumer
demands or lifestyles, or companies that have projected earnings in excess of
the average for their sector or industry.  In each case, they have prospects
that the Manager believes are favorable for the long term. The portfolio
manager of the Fund looks for growth companies with strong, capable
management sound financial and accounting policies, successful product
development and marketing and other factors.


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

      While some convertible securities are a form of debt security, in many
cases their conversion feature (allowing conversion into equity securities)
causes them to be regarded by the Manager more as "equity equivalents."  As a
result, the credit rating assigned to the security has less impact on the
Manager's investment decision than in the case of non-convertible
fixed-income securities.

      To determine whether convertible securities should be regarded as
"equity equivalents," the Manager examines the following factors:
(1)   whether, at the option of the investor, the convertible security can be
         exchanged for a fixed number of shares of common stock of the
         issuer,
(2)   whether the issuer of the convertible securities has restated its
         earnings per share of common stock on a fully diluted basis
         (considering the effect of conversion of the convertible
         securities), and
(3)   the extent to which the convertible security may be a defensive "equity
         substitute," providing the ability to participate in any
         appreciation in the price of the issuer's common stock.

|X|   Rights and Warrants.  The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets
in warrants or rights.  That limit does not apply to warrants and rights the
Fund has acquired as part of units of securities or that are attached to
other securities that the Fund buys.  The Fund does not expect that its
investments in warrants and rights will exceed 5% of its net assets.

      Warrants basically are options to purchase equity securities at
specific prices valid for a specific period of time. The market for them may
be very limited and they may be difficult for the Fund to dispose of promptly
at an acceptable price. Their prices do not necessarily move parallel to the
prices of the underlying securities.  Rights are similar to warrants, but
normally have a short duration and are distributed directly by the issuer to
its shareholders.  Rights and warrants have no voting rights, receive no
dividends and have no rights with respect to the assets of the issuer.

|X|   Preferred Stocks. Preferred stocks are equity securities but have
certain attributes of debt securities. Preferred stock, unlike common stock,
has a stated dividend rate payable from the corporation's earnings. Preferred
stock dividends may be cumulative or non-cumulative, participating, or
auction rate. "Cumulative" dividend provisions require all or a portion of
prior unpaid dividends to be paid before the issuer can pay dividends on
common shares.

      If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be
less attractive, causing the price of preferred stocks to decline. Preferred
stock may have mandatory sinking fund provisions, as well as provisions for
their call or redemption prior to maturity which can have a negative effect
on their prices when interest rates prior to maturity decline. Preferred
stock may be "participating" stock, which means that it may be entitled to a
dividend exceeding the stated dividend in certain cases.

      Preferred stocks are equity securities because they do not constitute a
liability of the issuer and therefore do not offer the same degree of
protection of capital as debt securities and may not offer the same degree of
assurance of continued income as debt securities. The rights of preferred
stock on distribution of a corporation's assets in the event of its
liquidation are generally subordinate to the rights associated with a
corporation's debt securities. Preferred stock generally has a preference
over common stock on the distribution of a corporation's assets in the event
of its liquidation.

|X|   Foreign Securities.  The Fund expects to have substantial investments
in foreign securities.  These include equity securities issued by foreign
companies and debt securities issued or guaranteed by foreign companies or
governments, including supra-national entities.  "Foreign securities" include
equity and debt securities of companies organized under the laws of countries
other than the United States and debt securities issued or guaranteed by
governments other than the U.S. government or by foreign supra-national
entities.  They also include securities of companies (including those that
are located in the U.S. or organized under U.S. law) that derive a
significant portion of their revenue or profits from foreign businesses,
investments or sales, or that have a significant portion of their assets
abroad.  They may be traded on foreign securities exchanges or in the foreign
over-the-counter markets.

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

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

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

o     Foreign Debt Obligations. The debt obligations of foreign governments
and entities may or may not be supported by the full faith and credit of the
foreign government. The Fund may buy securities issued by certain
"supra-national" entities, which include entities designated or supported by
governments to promote economic reconstruction or development, international
banking organizations and related government agencies. Examples are the
International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (commonly called the
"World Bank"), the Asian Development bank and the Inter-American Development
Bank.

      The governmental members of these supranational entities are
"stockholders" that typically make capital contributions and may be committed
to make additional capital contributions if the entity is unable to repay its
borrowings. A supra-national entity's lending activities may be limited to a
percentage of its total capital, reserves and net income. There can be no
assurance that the constituent foreign governments will continue to be able
or willing to honor their capitalization commitments for those entities.

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

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

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

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

o     Special Risks of Emerging Markets. Emerging and developing markets
abroad may also offer special opportunities for growth investing but have
greater risks than more developed foreign markets, such as those in Europe,
Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. There may be even less liquidity in
their securities markets, and settlements of purchases and sales of
securities may be subject to additional delays. They are subject to greater
risks of limitations on the repatriation of income and profits because of
currency restrictions imposed by local governments. Those countries may also
be subject to the risk of greater political and economic instability, which
can greatly affect the volatility of prices of securities in those countries.
The Manager will consider these factors when evaluating securities in these
markets, because the selection of those securities must be consistent with
the Fund's goal of preservation of principal.

      The Fund may invest in securities of issuers of Eastern European
countries. The social, political and economic reforms in most Eastern
European countries are still in their early stages, and there can be no
assurance that these reforms will continue. Eastern European countries in
many cases do not have a sophisticated or well-established capital market
structure for the sale and trading of securities.  Participation in the
investment markets in some of those countries may be available initially or
solely through investment in joint ventures, state enterprises, private
placements, unlisted securities or other similar illiquid investment
vehicles.

      In addition, although investment opportunities may exist in Eastern
European countries, any change in the leadership or policies of the
governments of those countries, or changes in the leadership or policies of
any other government that exercises a significant influence over those
countries, may halt the expansion of or reverse the liberalization of foreign
investment policies now occurring. As a result investment opportunities which
may currently exist may be threatened.

      The prior authoritarian governments of a number of the Eastern European
countries previously expropriated large amounts of real and personal
property, which may include property which will be represented by or held by
entities issuing the securities the Fund might wish to purchase.  In many
cases, the claims of the prior property owners against those governments were
never finally settled.  There can be no assurance that any property
represented by or held by entities issuing securities purchased by the Fund
will not also be expropriated, nationalized, or confiscated.  If that
property were confiscated, the Fund could lose a substantial portion of its
investments in such countries.  The Fund's investments could also be
adversely affected by exchange control regulations imposed in any of those
countries.


      |X|   Passive Foreign Investment Companies.  Some securities of
corporations domiciled outside the U.S. which the Fund may purchase, may be
considered passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs") under U.S. tax
laws. PFICs are those foreign corporations which generate primarily passive
income. They tend to be growth companies or "start-up" companies. For federal
tax purposes, a corporation is deemed a PFIC if 75% or more of the foreign
corporation's gross income for the income year is passive income or if 50% or
more of its assets are assets that produce or are held to produce passive
income. Passive income is further defined as any income to be considered
foreign personal holding company income within the subpart F provisions
defined by Internal Revenue Code ("IRC")ss.954.


      Investing in PFICs involves the risks associated with investing in
foreign securities, as described above. There are also the risks that the
Fund may not realize that a foreign corporation it invests in is a PFIC for
federal tax purposes. Federal tax laws impose severe tax penalties for
failure to properly report investment income from PFICs. Following industry
standards, the Fund makes every effort to ensure compliance with federal tax
reporting of these investments. PFICs are considered foreign securities for
the purposes of the Fund's minimum percentage requirements or limitations of
investing in foreign securities.

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

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


      |X|   Portfolio Turnover.  "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at
which the Fund traded its portfolio securities during its last fiscal year.
For example, if a fund sold all of its securities during the year, its
portfolio turnover rate would have been 100%. The Fund's portfolio turnover
rate will fluctuate from year to year, and the Fund may have a portfolio
turnover rate of more than 100% annually. Increased portfolio turnover
creates higher brokerage and transaction costs for the Fund, which may reduce
its overall performance. Additionally, the realization of capital gains from
selling portfolio securities may result in distributions of taxable long-term
capital gains to shareholders, since the Fund will normally distribute all of
its capital gains realized each year, to avoid excise taxes under the
Internal Revenue Code.


Other Investment Techniques and Strategies. In seeking its objective, the
Fund may from time to time use 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|   Debt Securities. The Fund can invest in a variety of domestic and
foreign debt securities for current income. Foreign debt securities are
subject to the risks of foreign securities described above. In general,
domestic and foreign fixed-income securities are also subject to two
additional types of risk: credit risk and interest rate risk.

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

      The Fund's debt investments can include investment-grade and
non-investment-grade bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").
Investment-grade bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc., at least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services or Fitch,
Inc., or have comparable ratings by another nationally recognized statistical
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 the securities are unrated,
to be considered part of the Fund's holdings of investment-grade securities,
they must be judged by the Manager to be of comparable quality to bonds rated
as investment grade by a rating organization.

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

         Fluctuations in the market value of fixed-income securities after
the Fund buys them will not affect the interest payable on those securities,
nor the cash income from them.  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.

o     U.S. Government Securities.  These are securities issued or guaranteed
by the U.S. Treasury or other government agencies or corporate entities
referred to as "instrumentalities." The obligations of U.S. government
agencies or instrumentalities in which the Fund may invest may or may not be
guaranteed or supported by the "full faith and credit" of the United States.
"Full faith and credit" means generally that the taxing power of the U.S.
government is pledged to the payment of interest and repayment of principal
on a security. If a security is not backed by the full faith and credit of
the United States, the owner of the security must look principally to the
agency issuing the obligation for repayment. The owner might be able to
assert a claim against the United States if the issuing agency or
instrumentality does not meet its commitment.  The Fund will invest in
securities of U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities only if the
Manager is satisfied that the credit risk with respect to such
instrumentality is minimal.

o     U.S. Treasury Obligations. These include Treasury bills (maturities of
one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (maturities of from one to ten
years), and Treasury bonds (maturities of more than ten years). Treasury
securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States as to
timely payments of interest and repayments of principal. They also can
include U.S. Treasury securities that have been "stripped" by a Federal
Reserve Bank, zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities described below, and
Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities ("TIPS").
o     Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
Instrumentalities. These include direct obligations and mortgage related
securities that have different levels of credit support from the government.
Some are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, such
as Government National Mortgage Association pass-through mortgage
certificates (called "Ginnie Maes"). Some are supported by the right of the
issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury under certain circumstances, such as
Federal National Mortgage Association bonds ("Fannie Maes"). Others are
supported only by the credit of the entity that issued them, such as Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation obligations ("Freddie Macs").

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

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

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

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

o     Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. While it is not anticipated
currently that the Fund will invest a substantial portion of its assets in
lower-grade debt securities, the Fund can do so to seek current income.
Because lower-grade securities tend to offer higher yields than investment
grade securities, the Fund may invest in lower-grade securities if the
Manager is trying to achieve greater income. In some cases, the appreciation
possibilities of lower-grade securities may be a reason they are selected for
the Fund's portfolio. However, these investments will be made only when
consistent with the goal of preservation of principal that is part of the
Fund's objective.

      The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in "lower grade" debt
securities but the Manager does not intend currently to invest more than 15%
of the Fund's total assets in securities rated below "BBB" or "Baa."
"Lower-grade" debt securities are those rated below "investment grade" which
means they have a rating lower than "Baa" by Moody's or lower than "BBB" by
Standard & Poor's or Fitch, Inc., or similar ratings by other rating
organizations. If they are unrated, and are determined by the Manager to be
of comparable quality to debt securities rated below investment grade, they
are included in limitation on the percentage of  the Fund's assets that can
be invested in 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.  In the case of foreign high yield bonds, these risks are
in addition to the special risk of foreign investing discussed in the
Prospectus and in this Statement of Additional Information.

      However, the Fund's limitations on these investments may reduce some of
the risks to the Fund, as will the Fund's policy of diversifying its
investments. Additionally, to the extent they can be converted into stock,
convertible securities may be less subject to some of these risks than
non-convertible high yield bonds, since stock may be more liquid and less
affected by some of these risk factors.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|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
obligations.

      The interest rate on a floating rate demand note is based on a stated
prevailing market rate, such as a bank's prime rate, the 91-day U.S. Treasury
Bill rate, or some other standard, and is adjusted automatically each time
such rate is adjusted.  The interest rate on a variable rate demand note is
also based on a stated prevailing market rate but is adjusted automatically
at specified intervals of not less than one year.  Generally, the changes in
the interest rate on such securities reduce the fluctuation in their market
value.  As interest rates decrease or increase, the potential for capital
appreciation or depreciation is less than that for fixed-rate obligations of
the same maturity. The Manager may determine that an unrated floating rate or
variable rate demand obligation meets the Fund's quality standards by reason
of being backed by a letter of credit or guarantee issued by a bank that
meets those quality standards.

      Floating rate and variable rate demand notes that have a stated
maturity in excess of one year may have features that permit the holder to
recover the principal amount of the underlying security at specified
intervals not exceeding one year and upon no more than 30 days' notice.  The
issuer of that type of note normally has a corresponding right in its
discretion, after a given period, to prepay the outstanding principal amount
of the note plus accrued interest. Generally the issuer must provide a
specified number of days' notice to the holder.

|X|   Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies. The Fund may invest in
securities of small, unseasoned companies.  These are companies that have
been in operation for less than three years, including the operations of any
predecessors.  Securities of these companies may be subject to volatility in
their prices. They may have a limited trading market, which may adversely
affect the Fund's ability to dispose of them and can reduce the price the
Fund might be able to obtain for them. Other investors that own a security
issued by a small, unseasoned issuer for which there is limited liquidity
might trade the security when the Fund is attempting to dispose of its
holdings of that security. In that case the Fund might receive a lower price
for its holdings than might otherwise be obtained. The Fund may not invest
more than 5% of its net assets in those securities.

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

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

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

      When 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 (generally
within 45 days of the date the offer is accepted).  The securities are
subject to change in value from market fluctuations during the period until
settlement. The value at delivery may be less than the purchase price. For
example, changes in interest rates in a direction other than that expected by
the Manager before settlement will affect the value of such securities and
may cause a loss to the Fund. During the period between purchase and
settlement, no payment is made by the Fund to the issuer and no interest
accrues to the Fund from the investment.  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 to secure what the
Manager considers to be an advantageous price and yield at the time of
entering into the obligation. When the Fund enters into a when-issued or
delayed-delivery transaction, it relies on the other party to complete the
transaction. Its failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity
to obtain the security at a price and yield the Manager considers to be
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 purpose of
investment leverage. Although the Fund will enter into delayed-delivery or
when-issued purchase transactions to acquire securities, it 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 delivery or receive against a forward commitment, it may incur a
gain or loss.

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

      When-issued and delayed-delivery transactions 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 delayed-delivery basis to obtain the benefit of currently
higher cash yields.

|X|   Participation Interests.  The Fund may invest in participation
interests, subject to the Fund's limitation on investments in illiquid
investments.  A participation interest is an undivided interest in a loan
made by the issuing financial institution in the proportion that the buyers
participation interest bears to the total principal amount of the loan.  No
more than 5% of the Fund's net assets can be invested in participation
interests of the same borrower.  The issuing financial institution may have
no obligation to the Fund other than to pay the Fund the proportionate amount
of the principal and interest payments it receives.

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

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

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

      The majority of these transactions run from day to day, and delivery
pursuant to the resale typically occurs within one to five days of the
purchase. Repurchase agreements having a maturity beyond seven days are
subject to the Fund's limits on holding illiquid investments. The Fund will
not enter into a repurchase agreement that causes more than 10% of its net
assets to be subject to repurchase agreements having a maturity beyond seven
days. There is no limit on the amount of the Fund's net assets that may be
subject to repurchase agreements having maturities of seven days or less.

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

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

o     Reverse Repurchase Agreements. The Fund can use reverse repurchase
agreements on debt obligations it owns. Under a reverse repurchase agreement,
the Fund sells an underlying debt obligation and simultaneously agrees to
repurchase the same security at an agreed-upon price at an agreed-upon date.
The Fund will identify on its books liquid assets in an amount sufficient to
cover its obligations under reverse repurchase agreements, including
interest, until payment is made to the seller.

      These transactions involve the risk that the market value of the
securities sold by the Fund under a reverse repurchase agreement could
decline below the price at which the Fund is obligated to repurchase them.
These agreements are considered borrowings by the Fund and will be subject to
the asset coverage requirement under the Fund's policy on borrowing discussed
below.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|X|   Loans of Portfolio Securities.  The Fund may lend its portfolio
securities pursuant to policies approved by the Fund's Board. It may do so to
try to provide income or to raise cash for liquidity purposes. These loans
are limited to not more than 25% of the value of the Fund's net assets.

      The Fund has entered into a Securities Lending Agreement (the
"Securities Lending Agreement") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPMorgan
Chase"). Under the Securities Lending Agreement and applicable regulatory
requirements (which are subject to change), the collateral for such loans
must, on each business day, be at least equal to the value of the loaned
securities and must consist of cash, bank letters of credit or securities of
the U.S. Government (or its agencies or instrumentalities), or other cash
equivalents in which the Fund is permitted to invest. To be acceptable as
collateral, a bank letter of credit must obligate the bank to pay to JPMorgan
Chase, as agent, amounts demanded by the Fund if the demand meets the terms
of the letter. Both the issuing bank and the terms of the letter of credit
must be satisfactory to JPMorgan Chase and the Fund. The terms of the loans
must also meet applicable tests under the Internal Revenue Code and permit
the Fund to reacquire loaned securities on five business days' notice or in
time to vote on any material matters. The Securities Lending Agreement may be
terminated by either JPMorgan Chase or the Fund on 30 days' written notice.

      Pursuant to the Securities Lending Agreement, the Fund will receive a
percentage of all annual net income (i.e., net of rebates to the borrower and
certain other approved expenses) from securities lending transactions. Such
net income includes earnings from the investment of any cash collateral
received from a borrower and loan fees paid or payable by a borrower in
connection with loans secured by collateral other than cash.

      There are some risks in connection with securities lending, including
possible delays in receiving additional collateral from the borrower to
secure a loan or delays in recovering the loaned securities if the borrower
defaults. JPMorgan Chase has agreed, in general, to guarantee the obligations
of borrowers to return loaned securities to the Fund and to be responsible
for expenses relating to securities lending. The Fund, however, will be
responsible for risks associated with the investment of cash collateral,
including the risk of a default by the issuer of a security in which cash
collateral has been invested. If that occurs, the Fund may incur additional
costs in seeking to obtain the collateral or may lose the amount of the
collateral investment. The Fund may also lose money if the value of the
investments purchased with cash collateral decreases.

|X|   Borrowing for Leverage. The Fund has the ability to borrow on an
unsecured basis to invest the borrowed funds in portfolio securities. This
speculative technique is known as "leverage." As a matter of fundamental
policy, 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, absent exemptive relief, a
mutual fund may borrow only from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow
is up to one-third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed), less
all liabilities and indebtedness other than borrowing except that a fund may
borrow up to 5% of its total assets for temporary purposes from any person.
Under the Investment Company Act, there is a rebuttable presumption that a
loan is temporary if it is repaid within 60 days and not extended or
renewed.

      If the value of a Fund's assets, so computed, should fail to meet the
300% asset coverage requirement, the Fund is required, within three days
thereafter (not including Sundays and holidays) reduce its bank debt to the
extent necessary to meet such requirement and may have to sell a portion of
its investments at a time when independent investment judgment would not
dictate such sale.  Interest on money borrowed is an expense the Fund would
not otherwise incur, so that it may have little or no net investment income
during periods of substantial borrowings.  If it does borrow, its expenses
will be greater other things being equal, than comparable funds that do not
borrow.  Since substantially all of the Fund's assets fluctuate in value, but
borrowing obligations are fixed when the Fund has outstanding borrowings, the
net asset value per share of a Fund correspondingly will tend to increase and
decrease more when the Fund's assets increase or decrease in value than would
otherwise be the case. Currently, the Manager does not anticipate that under
normal market conditions, the Fund's borrowings would exceed 5% of its net
assets.

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

      The value of an asset-backed security is affected by changes in the
market's perception of the asset backing the security, the creditworthiness
of the servicing agent for the loan pool, the originator of the loans, or the
financial institution providing any credit enhancement, and is also affected
if any credit enhancement has been exhausted.  The risks of investing in
asset-backed securities are ultimately related to payment of consumer loans
by the individual borrowers.  As a purchaser of an asset-backed security, the
Fund would generally have no recourse to the entity that originated the loans
in the event of default by a borrower.  The underlying loans are subject to
prepayments, which may shorten the weighted average life of asset-backed
securities and may lower their return, in the same manner as in the case of
mortgage-backed securities and CMOs, described above.  Unlike mortgage-backed
securities, asset-backed securities typically do not have the benefit of a
security interest in the underlying collateral.

|X|   Derivatives.  The Fund can invest in a variety of derivative
investments to seek income or for hedging purposes. Some derivative
investments the Fund can use are the hedging instruments described below in
this Statement of Additional Information. However, the Fund does not use, and
does not currently contemplate using, derivatives or hedging instruments to a
significant degree in the coming year and it is not obligated to use them in
seeking its objective.

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

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

|X|   Hedging.  Although the Fund does not anticipate the extensive use of
hedging instruments, the Fund can use hedging instruments. It is not
obligated to use them in seeking its objective. To attempt to protect against
declines in the market value of the Fund's portfolio, to permit the Fund to
retain unrealized gains in the value of portfolio securities which have
appreciated, or to facilitate selling securities for investment reasons, the
Fund could:
o     sell futures contracts,
o     buy puts on such futures or on securities, or
o     write covered calls on securities or futures.  Covered calls can also
      be used to increase the Fund's income, but the Manager does not
      expect to engage extensively in that practice.

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

      The Fund's strategy of hedging with futures and options on futures will
be incidental to the Fund's 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.

o     Futures.  The Fund can buy and sell futures contracts that relate to
(1) broadly-based stock indices (these are referred to as "stock index
futures"), (2) an individual stock ("single stock futures"), (3) bond indices
(these are referred to as "bond index futures"), (4) debt securities (these
are referred to as "interest rate futures"), (5) foreign currencies (these
are referred to as "forward contracts") and (6) commodities.

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

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

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

      No money is paid or received by the Fund on the purchase or sale of a
future.  Upon entering into a futures transaction, the Fund will be required
to deposit an initial margin payment with the futures commission merchant
(the "futures broker").  Initial margin payments will be deposited with 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
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 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 any additional cash must be
paid by or released to the Fund.  Any loss or gain on the future is then
realized by the Fund for tax purposes.  All futures transactions (except
forward contracts) are effected through a clearinghouse associated with the
exchange on which the contracts are traded.

o     Put and Call Options.  The Fund can buy and sell certain kinds of put
options ("puts") and call options ("calls"). The Fund can buy and sell
exchange-traded and over-the-counter put and call options, including index
options, securities options, currency options, commodities options, and
options on the other types of futures described above.

o     Writing Covered Call Options.  The Fund can write (that is, sell)
covered calls. If the Fund sells a call option, it must be covered.  That
means the Fund must own the security subject to the call while the call is
outstanding, or, for certain types of calls, the call may be covered by
identifying liquid assets on the Fund's books to enable the Fund to satisfy
its obligations if the call is exercised.  Up to 50% of the Fund's total
assets may be subject to calls the Fund writes.

      When the Fund writes a call on a security, it receives cash (a
premium). The Fund agrees to sell the underlying security to a purchaser of a
corresponding call on the same security during the call period at a fixed
exercise price regardless of market price changes during the call period. The
call period is usually not more than nine months. The exercise price may
differ from the market price of the underlying security.  The Fund has the
risk of loss that the price of the underlying security may decline during the
call period. That risk may be offset to some extent by the premium the 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 a specified multiple that determines the total
value of the call for each point of difference.  If the value of the
underlying investment does not rise above the call price, it is likely that
the call will lapse without being exercised. In that case, the 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 option or when the
Fund enters into a closing 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 will generally be based on
a multiple of the premium received for the option, plus the amount by which
the option is exercisable below the market price of the underlying security
(that is, the option is "in the money"). When the Fund writes an OTC option,
it will treat as illiquid (for purposes of its restriction on holding
illiquid securities) the mark-to-market value of any OTC option it holds,
unless the option is subject to a buy-back agreement by the executing broker.

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

      The Fund may also write calls on a futures contract without owning the
futures contract or securities deliverable under the contract. To do so, at
the time the call is written, the Fund must cover the call by identifying an
equivalent dollar amount of liquid assets on the Fund's
books.  The Fund will identify additional liquid assets on the Fund's books
if the value of the identified assets drops below 100% of the current value
of the future.  Because of this identification requirement, in no
circumstances would the Fund's receipt of an exercise notice as to that
future require the Fund to deliver a futures contract. It would simply put
the Fund in a short futures position, which is permitted by the Fund's
hedging policies.

o     Writing Put Options.  The Fund can sell put 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.  The Fund will not write puts if, as a result, more than 50%
of the Fund's net assets would be required to be identified 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 with a
value equal to or greater than the exercise price of the underlying
securities.  The Fund therefore forgoes the opportunity of investing the
identified 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.

o     Purchasing Calls and Puts.  The Fund can purchase calls to protect
against the possibility that the Fund's portfolio will not participate in an
anticipated rise in the securities market. When the Fund buys a call (other
than in a closing purchase transaction), it pays a premium. The Fund then has
the right to buy the underlying investment from a seller of a corresponding
call on the same investment during the call period at a fixed exercise
price.  The Fund benefits only if it sells the call at a profit or if, during
the call period, the market price of the underlying investment is above the
sum of the call price plus the transaction costs and the premium paid for the
call and the Fund exercises the call.  If the Fund does not exercise the call
or sell it (whether or not at a profit), the call will become worthless at
its expiration date. In that case the Fund will have paid the premium but
lost the right to purchase the underlying investment.

      The Fund can buy puts whether or not it holds the underlying investment
in its portfolio. When the Fund purchases a put, it pays a premium and,
except as to puts on indices, has the right to sell the underlying investment
to a seller of a put on a corresponding investment during the put period at a
fixed exercise price.  Buying a put on securities or futures the Fund owns
enables the Fund to attempt to protect itself during the put period against a
decline in the value of the underlying investment below the exercise price by
selling the underlying investment at the exercise price to a seller of a
corresponding put.  If the market price of the underlying investment is equal
to or above the exercise price and, as a result, the put is not exercised or
resold, the put will become worthless at its expiration date.  In that case
the Fund will have paid the premium but lost the right to sell the underlying
investment.  However, the Fund may sell the put prior to its expiration.
That sale may or may not be at a profit.

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

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

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

o     Buying and Selling Options on Foreign Currencies.  The Fund can buy and
sell calls and puts on foreign currencies.  They include puts and calls that
trade on a securities or commodities exchange or in the over-the-counter
markets or are quoted by major recognized dealers in such options.  The Fund
could use these calls and puts to try to protect against declines in the
dollar value of foreign securities and increases in the dollar cost of
foreign securities the Fund wants to acquire.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

o     Forward Contracts.  Forward contracts are foreign currency exchange
contracts.  They are used to buy or sell foreign currency for future delivery
at a fixed price.  The Fund uses them to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a
security denominated in a foreign currency that the Fund has bought or sold,
or to protect against possible losses from changes in the relative values of
the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency.  The Fund limits its exposure in
foreign currency exchange contracts in a particular foreign currency to the
amount of its assets denominated in that currency or a closely-correlated
currency.  The Fund may also use "cross-hedging" where the Fund hedges
against changes in currencies other than the currency in which a security it
holds is denominated.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

o     Interest Rate Swap Transactions.  The Fund can enter into interest rate
swap agreements. 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 might swap the right to receive floating rate
payments for fixed rate payments.  The Fund can enter into swaps only on
securities that it owns.  The Fund will not enter into swaps with respect to
more than 25% of its total assets. Also, the Fund will identify liquid assets
on the Fund's books (such as cash or U.S. government securities) to cover any
amounts it could owe under swaps that exceed the amounts it is entitled to
receive, and it will adjust that amount daily, as needed.

      Swap agreements entail both interest rate risk and credit risk.  There
is a risk that, based on movements of interest rates in the future, the
payments made by the Fund under a swap agreement will be greater than the
payments it received.  Credit risk arises from the possibility that the
counterparty will default.  If the counterparty defaults, the 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 certain counterparties
pursuant to master netting agreements.  A master netting agreement provides
that all swaps done between the Fund and that counterparty shall be regarded
as parts of an integral agreement.  If amounts are payable on a particular
date in the same currency in respect of one or more swap transactions, the
amount payable on that date in that currency shall be the net amount.  In
addition, the master netting agreement may provide that if one party defaults
generally or on one swap, the counterparty can terminate all of the swaps
with that party.  Under these agreements, if a default results in a loss to
one party, the measure of that party's damages is calculated by reference to
the average cost of a replacement swap for each swap.  It is measured by the
mark-to-market value at the time of the termination of each swap.  The gains
and losses on all swaps are then netted, and the result is the counterparty's
gain or loss on termination.  The termination of all swaps and the netting of
gains and losses on termination is generally referred to as "aggregation."

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

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

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


o     Regulatory Aspects of Hedging Instruments.  The Commodities Futures
Trading Commission (the "CFTC") recently eliminated limitations on futures
trading by certain regulated entities including registered investment
companies and consequently registered investment companies may engage in
unlimited futures transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund
claims an exclusion from regulation as a commodity pool operator. The Fund
has claimed such an exclusion from registration as a commodity pool operator
under the Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Fund may use futures and
options for hedging and non-hedging purposes to the extent consistent with
its investment objective, internal risk management guidelines adopted by the
Fund's investment adviser (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 the staff members of the SEC regarding
applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act, when the Fund purchases
a future, it must segregate cash or readily marketable short-term debt
instruments in an amount equal to the purchase price of the future, less the
margin deposit applicable to it.

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

      Certain forward contracts the Fund enters into may result in
"straddles" for Federal income tax purposes.  The straddle rules may affect
the character and timing of gains (or losses) recognized by the Fund on
straddle positions.  Generally, a loss sustained on the disposition of a
position making up a straddle is allowed only to the extent that the loss
exceeds any unrecognized gain in the offsetting positions making up the
straddle.  Disallowed loss is generally allowed at the point where there is
no unrecognized gain in the offsetting positions making up the straddle, or
the offsetting position is disposed of.
      Under the Internal Revenue Code, the following gains or losses are
treated as ordinary income or loss:
1.     gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates that
         occur between the time the Fund accrues interest or other
         receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in
         a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects such
         receivables or pays such liabilities, and
2.     gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of a foreign
         currency between the date of acquisition of a debt security
         denominated in a foreign currency or foreign currency forward
         contracts and the date of disposition.

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

|X|   Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments.  When market, economic or
political conditions are unstable, or the Manager believes it is otherwise
appropriate to reduce holdings in stocks, the Fund can invest in a variety of
debt securities for defensive purposes. The Fund can also purchase these
securities for liquidity purposes to meet cash needs due to the redemption of
Fund shares, or to hold while waiting to reinvest cash received from the sale
of other portfolio securities. The Fund can buy:
o     obligations issued or guaranteed by the U. S. government or its
         instrumentalities or agencies,
o     commercial paper (short-term, unsecured, promissory notes of domestic
         or foreign companies) rated in the three top rating categories of a
         nationally recognized rating organization,
o     short-term debt obligations of corporate issuers, rated investment
         grade (rated at least Baa by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or at
         least BBB by Standard & Poor's Corporation, or a comparable rating
         by another rating organization), or unrated securities judged by the
         Manager to have a comparable quality to rated securities in those
         categories,
o     certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic and
         foreign banks  having total assets in excess of $1 billion, and
o     repurchase agreements.

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

|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.

Other Investment Restrictions

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

      The Fund's investment objective is 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 principal
investment policies are described in the Prospectus.

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

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

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

o        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.

o     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.

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

o     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.

o     The Fund cannot issue senior securities, except to the extent permitted
under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any
exemption therefrom, as such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or
interpreted from time to time.

      Unless the Prospectus or this 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). 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.

      Currently, under the Investment Company Act, absent exemptive relief, a
mutual fund may borrow only from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow
is up to one-third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed), less
all liabilities and indebtedness other than borrowing except that a fund may
borrow up to 5% of its total assets for temporary purposes from any person.
Under the Investment Company Act, there is a rebuttable presumption that a
loan is temporary if it is repaid within 60 days and not extended or
renewed.


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


|X|   Does the Fund Have Additional Restrictions That Are Not "Fundamental"
Policies? The Fund has additional operating policies which are stated below,
that are not "fundamental," and which can be changed by the Board of Trustees
without shareholder approval.

o     The Fund cannot sell securities short except in short sales
"against-the-box." However, the Fund does not engage in this type of
transaction at all because of changes in applicable tax laws.


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


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


o     Public Disclosure. The Fund's portfolio holdings are made publicly
         available no later than 60 days after the close of each of the
         Fund's fiscal quarters in its semi-annual report to shareholders,
         its annual report to shareholders, or its Statements of Investments
         on Form N-Q. Those documents are publicly available at the SEC. In
         addition, the top 20 month-end holdings may be posted on the
         OppenheimerFunds' website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com (select the
         Fund's name under the "View Fund Information for:" menu) with a
         15-day lag.  The Fund may release a more restrictive list of
         holdings (e.g., the top five or top 10 portfolio holdings) or may
         release no holdings if that is in the best interests of the Fund and
         its shareholders.  Other general information about the Fund's
         portfolio investments, such as portfolio composition by asset class,
         industry, country, currency, credit rating or maturity, may also be
         posted.


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

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


      A list of the top 20 portfolio securities holdings (based on invested
assets), listed by security or by issuer, as of the end of each month may be
disclosed to third parties (subject to the procedures below) no sooner than
15 days after month-end.


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

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

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

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


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


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

o     Brokers and dealers in connection with portfolio transactions
         (purchases and sales)

o     Brokers and dealers to obtain bids or bid and asked prices (if
         securities held by the Fund are not priced by the Fund's regular
         pricing services)
o     Dealers to obtain price quotations where the Fund is not identified as
         the owner.


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

o     Response to legal process in litigation matters, such as responses to
         subpoenas or in class action matters where the Fund may be part of
         the plaintiff class (and seeks recovery for losses on a security) or
         a defendant,

o     Response to regulatory requests for information (the SEC, Financial
         Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), state securities
         regulators, and/or foreign securities authorities, including without
         limitation requests for information in inspections or for position
         reporting purposes),

o     To potential sub-advisers of portfolios (pursuant to confidentiality
         agreements),
o     To consultants for retirement plans for plan sponsors/discussions at
         due diligence meetings (pursuant to confidentiality agreements),
o     Investment bankers in connection with merger discussions (pursuant to
         confidentiality agreements).

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

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


      Any permitted release of otherwise non-public portfolio holdings
information must be in accordance with the then-current policy on approved
methods for communicating confidential information.


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

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

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History. The Fund is an open-end, diversified management
investment company with an unlimited number of authorized shares of
beneficial interest. The Fund was organized as a Massachusetts business trust
in June 1990. Prior to June 2003, the Fund's name was "Oppenheimer Global
Growth and Income Fund."

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


      The Fund currently has five classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class
C, Class N and Class Y. All classes invest in the same investment portfolio.
Only retirement plans may purchase Class N shares. Only certain institutional
investors may purchase Class Y shares.  Each class of shares:


o     has its own dividends and distributions,
o     pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes,
o     will generally have a different net asset value,
o     will generally have separate voting rights on matters in which
         interests of one class are different from interests of another
         class, and
o     votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

      Shares  are  freely  transferable,  and each share of each class has one
vote at shareholder  meetings,  with fractional shares voting  proportionally,
on  matters  submitted  to a 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 hold shareholder meetings from time to time on
 important matters or when required to do so by the Investment Company Act,
 or other applicable law. Shareholders have the right, upon a vote or
 declaration in writing of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of the 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  and a Governance  Committee.  Each  committee is comprised  solely of
Trustees who are not "interested  persons" under the Investment Company Act (the
"Independent Trustees").  The members of the Audit Committee are David K. Downes
(Chairman),  Phillip A.  Griffiths,  Mary F. Miller,  Russell S. Reynolds,  Jr.,
Joseph M. Wikler and Peter I. Wold. The Audit  Committee held 5 meetings  during
the Fund's fiscal year ended September 30, 2007. The Audit  Committee  furnishes
the Board with recommendations regarding the selection of the Fund's independent
registered  public  accounting  firm  (also  referred  to  as  the  "independent
Auditors").  Other main functions of the Audit  Committee  outlined in the Audit
Committee Charter,  include, but are not limited to: (i) reviewing the scope and
results of financial statement audits and the audit fees charged; (ii) reviewing
reports  from the Fund's  independent  Auditors  regarding  the Fund's  internal
accounting  procedures and controls;  (iii) reviewing reports from the Manager's
Internal Audit  Department;  (iv)  maintaining a separate line of  communication
between  the Fund's  independent  Auditors  and the  Independent  Trustees;  (v)
reviewing  the  independence  of  the  Fund's  independent  Auditors;  and  (vi)
pre-approving  the  provision of any audit or  non-audit  services by the Fund's
independent  Auditors,  including tax services,  that are not  prohibited by the
Sarbanes-Oxley  Act, to the Fund,  the Manager  and  certain  affiliates  of the
Manager.

      The members of the Regulatory & Oversight Committee are Robert G. Galli
(Chairman), David K. Downes, Matthew P. Fink, Phillip A. Griffiths, Joel W.
Motley and Joseph M. Wikler. The Regulatory & Oversight Committee held 6
meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended September 30, 2007.  The
Regulatory & Oversight Committee evaluates and reports to the Board on the
Fund's contractual arrangements, including the Investment Advisory and
Distribution Agreements, transfer agency and shareholder service agreements
and custodian agreements as well as the policies and procedures adopted by
the Fund to comply with the Investment Company Act and other applicable law,
among other duties as set forth in the Regulatory & Oversight Committee's
Charter.

      The members of the Governance Committee are Joel W. Motley (Chairman),
Matthew P. Fink, Robert G. Galli, Mary F. Miller, Russell S. Reynolds, Jr.
and Peter I. Wold. The Governance Committee held 7 meetings during the Fund's
fiscal year ended September 30, 2007.  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, provides the Board with recommendations for voting
portfolio securities held by the Fund, and monitors the Fund's proxy voting,
among other duties set forth in the Governance Committee's Charter.


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

      To date, the Governance Committee has been able to identify from its
own resources an ample number of qualified candidates. Nonetheless, under the
current policy of the Board, if the Board determines that a vacancy exists or
is likely to exist on the Board, the Governance Committee will consider
candidates for Board membership including those recommended by the Fund's
shareholders. The Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by
Independent Board members or recommended by any other Board members including
Board members affiliated with the Fund's Manager. The Governance Committee
may, upon Board approval, retain an executive search firm to assist in
screening potential candidates. Upon Board approval, the Governance Committee
may also use the services of legal, financial, or other external counsel that
it deems necessary or desirable in the screening process. Shareholders
wishing to submit a nominee for election to the Board may do so by mailing
their submission to the offices of OppenheimerFunds, Inc., Two World
Financial Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York
10281-1008, to the attention of the Board of Trustees of Oppenheimer Global
Opportunities Fund, c/o the Secretary of the Fund.

      Submissions should, at a minimum, be accompanied by the following: (1)
the name, address, and business, educational, and/or other pertinent
background of the person being recommended; (2) a statement concerning
whether the person is an "interested person" as defined in the Investment
Company Act; (3) any other information that the Fund would be required to
include in a proxy statement concerning the person if he or she was
nominated; and (4) the name and address of the person submitting the
recommendation and, if that person is a shareholder, the period for which
that person held Fund shares. Shareholders should note that a person who owns
securities issued by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (the parent
company of the Manager) would be deemed an "interested person" under the
Investment Company Act. In addition, certain other relationships with
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company or its subsidiaries, with
registered broker-dealers, or with the Funds' outside legal counsel may cause
a person to be deemed an "interested person."

      The Governance Committee has not established specific qualifications
that it believes must be met by a trustee nominee. In evaluating trustee
nominees, the Governance Committee considers, among other things, an
individual's background, skills, and experience; whether the individual is an
"interested person" as defined in the Investment Company Act; and whether the
individual would be deemed an "audit committee financial expert" within the
meaning of applicable SEC rules. The Governance Committee also considers
whether the individual's background, skills, and experience will complement
the background, skills, and experience of other Trustees and will contribute
to the Board. There are no differences in the manner in which the Governance
Committee evaluates nominees for trustees based on whether the nominee is
recommended by a shareholder. Candidates are expected to provide a mix of
attributes, experience, perspective and skills necessary to effectively
advance the interests of shareholders.

      In addition to being a Board member of each of the Board I Funds,
Messrs. Downes, Galli and Wruble are directors or trustees of ten other
portfolios in the Oppenheimer fund complex.


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


      Messrs. Gillespie, Jennings, Murphy, Petersen, Szilagyi, Vandehey,
Wixted and Zack and Mss. Bloomberg and Ives, who are officers of the Fund,
hold the same offices with one or more of the other Board I Funds. As of
January 4, 2008 the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group, owned of
record or beneficially less than 1% of any class of shares of the Fund. The
foregoing statement does not reflect ownership of shares held of record by an
employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares
beneficially owned under that plan by the officers of the Fund listed above.
In addition, none of the Independent Trustees (nor any of their immediate
family members) owns securities of either the Manager or the Distributor of
the Board I Funds or of any entity directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under common control with the Manager or the Distributor.


      Biographical Information. The Trustees and officers, their positions
with the Fund, length of service in such position(s) and principal
occupations and business affiliations during at least the past five years are
listed in the charts below. The charts also include information about each
Trustee's beneficial share ownership in the Fund and in all of the registered
investment companies that the Trustee oversees in the Oppenheimer family of
funds ("Supervised Funds"). The address of each Trustee in the chart below is
6803 S. Tucson Way, Centennial, Colorado 80112-3924. Each Trustee serves for
an indefinite term, or until his or her resignation, retirement, death or

     |X|  Retirement  Plan for Trustees.  The Board I Funds adopted a retirement
plan that provides for payments to retired Independent Trustees. Payments are up
to 80% of the average compensation paid during a Trustee's five years of service
in which the highest compensation was received. A Trustee must serve as director
or trustee  for any of the Board I Funds for at least seven years to be eligible
for retirement plan benefits and must serve for at least 15 years to be eligible
for the maximum  benefit.  The Board has frozen the retirement plan with respect
to new  accruals  as of December  31, 2006 (the  "Freeze  Date").  Each  Trustee
continuing  to serve on the Board of any of the Board I Funds  after the  Freeze
Date (each  such  Trustee a  "Continuing  Board  Member")  may elect to have his
accrued  benefit as of that date (i.e.,  an amount  equivalent  to the actuarial
present  value of his benefit under the  retirement  plan as of the Freeze Date)
(i) paid at once or over time, (ii) rolled into the  Compensation  Deferral Plan
described  below,  or (iii) in the case of Continuing  Board  Members  having at
least 7 years of  service  as of the  Freeze  Date paid in the form of an annual
benefit or joint and survivor annual benefit. The Board determined to freeze the
retirement  plan after  considering  a recent  trend among  corporate  boards of
directors to forego retirement plan payments in favor of current compensation.


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

     Deferral of the Trustees' fees under the plan will not materially  affect a
Fund's assets, liabilities or net income per share. The plan will not obligate a
fund to retain the  services  of any Trustee or to pay any  particular  level of
compensation to any Trustee.  Pursuant to an Order issued by the SEC, a fund may

     The Manager. The Manager is wholly-owned by Oppenheimer  Acquisition Corp.,

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  1.202.551.8090.  The Code of
Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's  registration  statement  on the
SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's Internet website at www.sec.gov. Copies may be
obtained, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at the following
E-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov., or by writing to the SEC's Public Reference
Section, Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.


     |X| Portfolio  Proxy Voting.  The Fund has adopted  Portfolio  Proxy Voting
Policies and Procedures,  which include Proxy Voting Guidelines, 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  Proxy  Voting  Guidelines  and to  maintain  records  of such
portfolio  proxy voting.  The  Portfolio  Proxy Voting  Policies and  Procedures
include  provisions to address  conflicts of interest that may arise between the
Fund and the Manager or the Manager's affiliates or business relationships. Such
a conflict of interest may arise, for example, where the Manager or an affiliate
of the  Manager  manages or  administers  the assets of a pension  plan or other
investment  account of the portfolio  company  soliciting  the proxy or seeks to
serve in that capacity.  The Manager and its affiliates  generally seek to avoid
such conflicts by maintaining  separate  investment decision making processes to
prevent the sharing of business  objectives  with  respect to proposed or actual
actions regarding  portfolio proxy voting decisions.  Additionally,  the Manager
employs the following two procedures:

     (1) if the  proposal  that  gives  rise  to the  conflict  is  specifically
addressed in the Proxy Voting  Guidelines,  the Manager will vote the  portfolio
proxy in accordance with the Proxy Voting Guidelines,  provided that they do not
provide  discretion to the Manager on how to vote on the matter; and

     (2) if such  proposal is not  specifically  addressed  in the Proxy  Voting
Guidelines or the Proxy Voting Guidelines  provide  discretion to the Manager on
how to vote,  the Manager will vote in  accordance  with the  third-party  proxy
voting agent's general recommended  guidelines on the proposal provided that the
Manager has reasonably  determined  that there is no conflict of interest on the
part of the proxy  voting  agent.  If neither  of the  previous  two  procedures
provides  an  appropriate  voting  recommendation,  the  Manager  may  retain an
independent  fiduciary  to advise the Manager on how to vote the proposal or may
abstain from voting.  The Proxy Voting  Guidelines'  provisions  with respect to
certain routine and non-routine proxy proposals are summarized below: o The Fund

     generally  votes with the  recommendation  of the  issuer's  management  on
routine matters,  including  ratification of the independent  registered  public
accounting firm, unless circumstances  indicate otherwise.  o The Fund evaluates
nominees for director nominated by management on a case-by-case basis, examining
the  following  factors,  among others:  Composition  of the board and key board
committees,  attendance at board meetings,  corporate governance  provisions and
takeover activity, long-term company performance and the nominee's investment in
the company. o In general, the Fund opposes anti-takeover proposals and supports
the  elimination,  or the ability of shareholders to vote on the preservation or
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 without shareholder  approval.  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 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 manager
of the Fund is  employed  by the  Manager  and is the person who is  principally
responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio. Other members
of the  Manager's  Equity  Portfolio  Team  provide the  portfolio  manager with
counsel and support in managing the Fund's portfolio.

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

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

Fiscal Year ended 9/30:          Management Fees Paid to OppenheimerFunds, Inc.

2005                                                         $22,656,858

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


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


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


Portfolio Manager.  The Fund's portfolio is managed by Frank Jennings
(referred to as a "Portfolio Manager"). They are the persons who are
responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's investments.


     Other  Accounts  Managed.  As of September 30, 2007,  Mr.  Jennings did not
manage  any other  fund or  account.  Other  accounts  do not  include  personal
accounts of the portfolio manager and his family,  which are subject to the Code
of Ethics.

Compensation of the Portfolio Manager.  The Fund's Portfolio Manager is
employed and compensated by the Manager, not the Fund.  Under the Manager's
compensation program for its portfolio managers and portfolio analysts, their
compensation is based primarily on the investment performance results of the
funds and accounts they manage, rather than on the financial success of the
Manager. This is intended to align the portfolio managers' and analysts'
interests with the success of the funds and accounts and their investors. The
Manager's compensation structure is designed to attract and retain highly
qualified investment management professionals and to reward individual and
team contributions toward creating shareholder value. As of September 30,
2007, the Portfolio Manager's compensation consisted of three elements: a
base salary, an annual discretionary bonus and eligibility to participate in
long-term awards of options and appreciation rights in regard to the common
stock of the Manager's holding company parent.  Senior portfolio managers may
also be eligible to participate in the Manager's deferred compensation plan.

The base pay component of the portfolio manager is reviewed regularly to
ensure that it reflects the performance of the individual, is commensurate
with the requirements of the particular portfolio, reflects any specific
competence or specialty of the individual manager, and is competitive with
other comparable positions, to help the Manager attract and retain talent.
The annual discretionary bonus is determined by senior management of the
Manager and is based on a number of factors, including a fund's pre-tax
performance for periods of up to five years, measured against an appropriate
benchmark selected by management.  The Lipper benchmark with respect to the
Fund is Lipper - Global Flexible Portfolio Funds.  Other factors include
management quality (such as style consistency, risk management, sector
coverage, team leadership and coaching) and organizational development.  The
Portfolio Manager's compensation is not based on the total value of the
Fund's portfolio assets, although the Fund's investment performance may
increase those assets. The compensation structure is also intended to be
internally equitable and serve to reduce potential conflicts of interest
between the Fund and other funds and accounts managed by the Portfolio
Manager.  The compensation structure of the other funds managed by the
Portfolio Manager is the same as the compensation structure of the Fund,
described above.

Ownership of Fund Shares.  As of September 30, 2007, the Portfolio  Manager
beneficially owned shares of the Fund as follows:

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

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

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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

Brokerage Practices Followed by the Manager. The Manager allocates brokerage
for the Fund subject to the provisions of the investment advisory agreement
and other applicable rules and procedures described below.

      The Manager's portfolio traders allocate brokerage based upon
recommendations from the Manager's portfolio managers, together with the
portfolio traders' judgment as to the execution capability of the broker or
dealer. In certain instances, portfolio managers may directly place trades
and allocate brokerage. In either case, the Manager's executive officers
supervise the allocation of brokerage.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


      During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2005, 2006 and 2007, the
Fund paid the total brokerage commissions indicated in the chart below.
During the fiscal year ended September 30 2007, the Fund paid $2,741,426 in
commissions to firms that provide brokerage and research services to the Fund
with respect to $23,075,727,691 of aggregate portfolio transactions. All such
transactions were on a "best execution" basis, as described above. The
provision of research services was not necessarily a factor in the placement
of all such transactions.

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

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

      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 period 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.




|X|   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 (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 Distributor makes payments to recipients periodically at an
annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual Class A share net
assets held in the accounts of the recipients or their customers.

|X|      The Distributor does not receive or retain the service fee on Class
A shares in accounts for which the Distributor has been listed as the
broker-dealer of record. While the plan permits the Board to authorize
payments to the Distributor to reimburse itself for services under the plan,
the Board has not yet done so, except in the case of shares purchased prior
to March 1, 2007 with respect to certain group retirement plans that were
established prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement plans"). Prior
to March 1, 2007, the Distributor paid the 0.25% service fee for
grandfathered retirement plans in advance for the first year and retained the
first year's service fee paid by the Fund with respect to those shares. After
the shares were held for a year, the Distributor paid the ongoing service
fees to recipients on a periodic basis. Such shares are subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge if they are redeemed within 18 months. If
Class A shares purchased in a grandfathered retirement plan prior to March 1,
2007 are redeemed within the first year after their purchase, the recipient
of the service fees on those shares will be obligated to repay the
Distributor a pro rata portion of the advance payment of those fees. For
Class A shares purchased in grandfathered retirement plans on or after March
1, 2007, the Distributor does not make any payment in advance and does not
retain the service fee for the first year. Such shares are not subject to the
contingent deferred sales charge.

      For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007 payments under the Class A
plan totaled $7,758,535, of which $36,334 was retained by the Distributor
under the arrangement described above, regarding grandfathered retirement
accounts, and included $310,262 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's
parent company. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect
to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years.
The Distributor may not use payments received under the Class A plan to pay
any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or
allocation of overhead.


|X|   Class B, Class C and Class N Distribution and Service Plan Fees. Under
each plan, distribution and service fees are computed on the average of the
net asset value of shares in the respective class, determined as of the close
of each regular business day during the period. Each plan provides for the
Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate, whether the Distributor's
distribution expenses are more or less than the amounts paid by the 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 fees or to pay recipients the service fee on a
periodic basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after Class B, Class C and Class N shares are purchased. After the
first year Class B, Class C or Class N shares are outstanding, after their
purchase, the Distributor makes service fee payments periodically on those
shares. The advance payment is based on the net asset value of shares sold.
Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for the advance service fee
payment. If Class B, Class C or Class N shares are redeemed during the first
year after their purchase, the recipient of the service fees on those shares
will be obligated to repay the Distributor a pro rata portion of the advance
payment of the service fee made on those shares. Class B, Class C or Class N
shares may not be purchased by a new investor directly from the Distributor
without the investor designating another registered broker-dealer.  If a
current investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an
existing account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the
broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the
investor's agent to purchase the shares.  In those cases, the Distributor
retains the asset-based sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N
shares, but does not retain any service fees as to the assets represented by
that account.


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

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

      The asset-based sales charge on Class B, Class C and Class N shares
allow investors to buy shares without a front-end sales charge while allowing
the Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those shares. The Fund pays
the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor for its services rendered in
distributing Class B, Class C and Class N shares. The payments are made to
the Distributor in recognition that the Distributor:
o     pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at the time of
      sale and pays service fees as described above,
o     may finance payment of sales concessions and/or the advance of the
      service fee payment to recipients under the plans, or may provide
      such financing from its own resources or from the resources of an
      affiliate,
o     employs personnel to support distribution of Class B, Class C and Class
      N shares,
o     bears the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses
      (other than those furnished to current shareholders) and state "blue
      sky" registration fees and certain other distribution expenses,
o     may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B,
      Class C and Class N shares without receiving payment under the plans
      and therefore may not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent
      the plans,
o     receives payments under the plans consistent with the service fees and
      asset-based sales charges paid by other non-proprietary funds that
      charge 12b-1 fees,
o     may use the payments under the plan to include the Fund in various
      third-party distribution programs that may increase sales of Fund
      shares,
o     may experience increased difficulty selling the Fund's shares if
         payments under the plan are discontinued because most competitor
         funds have plans that pay dealers for rendering distribution
         services as much or more than the amounts currently being paid by
         the Fund, and
o     may not be able to continue providing, at the same or at a lesser cost,
         the same quality distribution sales efforts and services, or to
         obtain such services from brokers and dealers, if the plan payments
         were to be discontinued.

      During a calendar year, the Distributor's actual expenses in selling
Class B, Class C and Class N shares may be more than the payments it receives
from the contingent deferred sales charges collected on redeemed shares and
from the asset-based sales charges paid to the Distributor by the Fund under
the distribution and service plans. Those excess expenses are carried over on
the Distributor's books and may be recouped from asset-based sales charge
payments from the Fund in future years. However, the Distributor has
voluntarily agreed to cap the amount of expenses under the plans that may be
carried over from year to year and recouped that relate to (i) expenses the
Distributor has incurred that represent compensation and expenses of its
sales personnel and (ii) other direct distribution costs it has incurred,
such as sales literature, state registration fees, advertising and
prospectuses used to offer Fund shares. The cap on the carry-over of those
categories of expenses is set at 0.70% of annual gross sales of shares of the
Fund. If those categories of expenses exceed the capped amount, the
Distributor bears the excess costs. If the Class B, Class C or Class N plan
were to be terminated by the Fund, the Fund's Board of Trustees may allow the
Fund to continue payments of the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor
for distributing shares prior to the termination of the plan.

Payments to Fund Intermediaries


      Financial intermediaries may receive various forms of compensation or
reimbursement from the Fund in the form of 12b-1 plan payments as described
in the preceding section of this Statement of Additional Information. They
may also receive payments or concessions from the Distributor, derived from
sales charges paid by the clients of the financial intermediary, also as
described in this Statement of Additional Information. Additionally, the
Manager and/or the Distributor (including their affiliates) may make payments
to financial intermediaries in connection with their offering and selling
shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds, providing marketing or
promotional support, transaction processing and/or administrative services.
Among the financial intermediaries that may receive these payments are
brokers and dealers who sell and/or hold shares of the Fund, banks (including
bank trust departments), registered investment advisers, insurance companies,
retirement plan and qualified tuition program administrators, third party
administrators, and other institutions that have selling, servicing or
similar arrangements with the Manager or Distributor. The payments to
intermediaries vary by the types of product sold, the features of the Fund
share class and the role played by the intermediary.


      Possible types of payments to financial intermediaries include, without
limitation, those discussed below.

     o Payments made by the Fund, or by an investor  buying or selling shares of
the Fund may include:

     o  depending  on the share  class  that the  investor  selects,  contingent
deferred sales charges or initial  front-end sales charges,  all or a portion of
which  front-end  sales  charges are  payable by the  Distributor  to  financial
intermediaries (see "About Your Account" in the Prospectus);

     o ongoing  asset-based  payments  attributable to the share class selected,
including  fees  payable  under the Fund's  distribution  and/or  service  plans
adopted under Rule 12b-1 under the  Investment  Company Act, which are paid from
the Fund's assets and allocated to the class of shares to which the plan relates
(see "About the Fund -- Distribution and Service Plans" above);

     o  shareholder   servicing  payments  for  providing  omnibus   accounting,
recordkeeping,  networking,  sub-transfer  agency  or  other  administrative  or
shareholder  services,  including  retirement  plan and 529 plan  administrative
services fees,  which are paid from the assets of a Fund as reimbursement to the
Manager or Distributor for expenses they incur on behalf of the Fund.

     o Payments  made by the  Manager  or  Distributor  out of their  respective
resources  and assets,  which may  include  profits  the  Manager  derives  from
investment  advisory  fees  paid by the  Fund.  These  payments  are made at the
discretion of the Manager and/or the Distributor. These payments, often referred
to as "revenue sharing" payments, may be in addition to the payments by the Fund
listed above.

     o These types of payments may reflect  compensation for marketing  support,
support provided in offering the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds through certain
trading platforms and programs, transaction processing or other services;

     o The Manager and Distributor  each may also pay other  compensation to the
extent the payment is not  prohibited by law or by any  self-regulatory  agency,
such as FINRA.  Payments  are made based on the  guidelines  established  by the
Manager and Distributor, subject to applicable law.

     These  payments may provide an incentive  to  financial  intermediaries  to
actively  market or promote the sale of shares of the Fund or other  Oppenheimer
funds, or to support the marketing or promotional  efforts of the Distributor in
offering shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds. In addition,  some types
of payments may provide a financial  intermediary with an incentive to recommend
the Fund or a particular share class. Financial  intermediaries may earn profits
on these  payments,  since the  amount of the  payment  may  exceed  the cost of
providing  the service.  Certain of these  payments  are subject to  limitations
under applicable law. Financial intermediaries may categorize and disclose these
arrangements to their clients and to members of the public in a manner different
from the  disclosures in the Fund's  Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information.  You should ask your financial  intermediary for information  about
any payments it receives from the Fund, the Manager or the  Distributor  and any
services it provides, as well as the fees and commissions it charges.


      Although brokers or dealers that sell Fund shares may also act as a
broker or dealer in connection with the execution of the purchase or sale of
portfolio securities by the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds, a financial
intermediary's sales of shares of the Fund or such other Oppenheimer funds is
not a consideration for the Manager when choosing brokers or dealers to
effect portfolio transactions for the Fund or such other Oppenheimer funds.

      Revenue sharing payments can pay for distribution-related or asset
retention items including, without limitation,

o     transactional support, one-time charges for setting up access for the
         Fund or other Oppenheimer funds on particular trading systems, and
         paying the intermediary's networking fees;
o     program support, such as expenses related to including the Oppenheimer
         funds in retirement plans, college savings plans, fee-based advisory
         or wrap fee programs, fund "supermarkets", bank or trust company
         products or insurance companies' variable annuity or variable life
         insurance products;
o     placement on the dealer's list of offered funds and providing
         representatives of the Distributor with access to a financial
         intermediary's sales meetings, sales representatives and management
         representatives.

      Additionally, the Manager or Distributor may make payments for firm
support, such as business planning assistance, advertising, and educating a
financial intermediary's sales personnel about the Oppenheimer funds and
shareholder financial planning needs.


      For the year ended December 31, 2006, the following financial
intermediaries that are broker-dealers offering shares of the Oppenheimer
funds, and/or their respective affiliates, received revenue sharing or
similar distribution-related payments from the Manager or Distributor for
marketing or program support:

Performance of the Fund

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

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

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

o     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 total returns are not
         guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.
o     When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less
         than their original cost.
o     Total returns for any given past period represent historical
         performance information and are not, and should not be considered, a
         prediction of future returns.

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

         In calculating total returns for Class A shares, the current maximum
sales charge of 5.75% (as a percentage of the offering price) is deducted
from the initial investment ("P" in the formula below) (unless the return is
shown without sales charge, as described below). For Class B shares, payment
of the applicable contingent deferred sales charge is applied, depending on
the period for which the return is shown: 5.0% in the first year, 4.0% in the
second year, 3.0% in the third and fourth years, 2.0% in the fifth year, 1.0%
in the sixth year and none thereafter. For Class C shares, the 1.0%
contingent deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year
period. For Class N shares, the 1.0% contingent deferred sales charge is
deducted for returns for the one-year period, and total returns for the
periods prior to 03/01/01 (the inception date for Class N shares) are based
on the Fund's Class A returns, adjusted to reflect the higher Class N 12b-1
fees. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.

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

          - 1  = Average Annual Total
ERV   l/n      Return
  P

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

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

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


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

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

 ERV - P   = Total Return
-----------
    P

o     Total Returns at Net Asset Value.  From time to time the Fund may also
quote a cumulative or an average annual total return "at net asset value"
(without deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B, Class C or Class N
shares. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares. Each is based on the
difference in net asset value per share at the beginning and the end o  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 SAI.
The Fund may also compare its performance to that of other investments,
including other mutual funds, or use rankings of its performance by
independent ranking entities. Examples of these performance comparisons are
set forth below.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares


Additional information is presented below about the methods that can be used
to buy shares of the Fund. Appendix B 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 "NYSE"). The NYSE normally closes
at 4:00 p.m., but may close earlier on certain days. If Federal Funds are
received on a business day after the close of the NYSE, the shares will be
purchased and dividends will begin to accrue on the next regular business
day. The proceeds of ACH transfers are normally received by the 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 B to this Statement of Additional Information because the
Distributor or dealer or broker incurs little or no selling expenses.


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

      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.

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

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

   If the terms of the Letter are not fulfilled within the Letter period, the
concessions previously paid to the dealer of record for the account and the
amount of sales charge retained by the Distributor will be adjusted on the
first business day following the expiration of the Letter period to reflect
the sales charge rates that are applicable to the actual total purchases.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


Asset Builder Plans. As 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.

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

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


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

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


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

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

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

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

Class B, Class C or Class N shares may not be purchased by a new investor
directly from the Distributor without the investor designating another
registered broker-dealer.


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


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

      |X|   Availability of Class N Shares. In addition to the description of
the types of retirement plans which may purchase Class N shares contained in
the prospectus, Class N shares also are offered to the following:
o     to all rollover IRAs (including SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs),
o     to all rollover contributions made to Individual 401(k) plans,
            Profit-Sharing Plans and Money Purchase Pension Plans,
o     to all direct rollovers from OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle and
            Ascender retirement plans,
o     to all trustee-to-trustee IRA transfers,
o     to all 90-24 type 403(b) transfers,

o     to Group Retirement Plans (as defined in Appendix B to this Statement
            of Additional Information) which have entered into a special
            agreement with the Distributor for that purpose,

o     to Retirement Plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the
            Internal Revenue Code, the recordkeeper or the plan sponsor for
            which has entered into a special agreement with the Distributor,
o     to Retirement Plans of a plan sponsor where the aggregate assets of all
            such plans invested in the Oppenheimer funds is $500,000 or more,
o     to Retirement Plans with at least 100 eligible employees or $500,000 or
            more in plan assets,
o     to OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Ascender 401(k) plans that pay for the
            purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class A shares of one or
            more Oppenheimer funds, and
o     to certain customers of broker-dealers and financial advisors that are
            identified in a special agreement between the broker-dealer or
            financial advisor and the Distributor for that purpose.

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

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

      |X|   Allocation of Expenses. 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
in 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 in Networking level 1 and 3 accounts;

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, Record(k)eeper Pro and Pension Alliance Retirement
            Plan programs; and

o     A fund account that falls below the $500 minimum solely due to market
            fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the
            fee is deducted.

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

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 NYSE on each day that the NYSE 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 NYSE 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 NYSE's most recent annual announcement (which is
subject to change) states that it will close on New Year's Day, Martin Luther
King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day,
Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. It may also close on other
days.


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

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

      |X|   Securities Valuation. The Fund's Board of Trustees has
established procedures for the valuation of the Fund's securities. In general
those procedures are as follows:
o     Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange are valued as
follows:
(1)   if last sale information is regularly reported, they are valued at the

               last reported sale price on the principal exchange on which
               they are traded, on that day, or

(2)   if last sale information is not available on a valuation date, they are
               valued at the last reported sale price preceding the valuation
               date if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and
               "asked" prices on the valuation date or, if not,  at the
               closing "bid" price on the valuation date.
o     Equity securities traded on a foreign securities exchange generally are
valued in one of the following ways:
(1)   at the last sale price available to the pricing service approved by the

               Board of Trustees, or

(2)   at the last sale price obtained by the Manager from the report of the
               principal exchange on which the security is traded at its last
               trading session on or immediately before the valuation date, or
(3)   at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices obtained from the
               principal exchange on which the security is traded or, on the
               basis of reasonable inquiry, from two market makers in the
               security.
o     Long-term debt securities having a remaining maturity in excess of 60
days are valued based on the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices
determined by a portfolio pricing service approved by 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 U.S. government securities, mortgage-backed securities,
corporate bonds and foreign government securities, when last sale information
is not generally available, the Manager may use pricing services approved by
the Board of Trustees. The pricing service may use "matrix" comparisons to
the prices for comparable instruments on the basis of quality, yield and
maturity. Other special factors may be involved (such as the tax-exempt
status of the interest paid by municipal securities). The Manager will
monitor the accuracy of the pricing services. That monitoring may include
comparing prices used for portfolio valuation to actual sales prices of
selected securities.

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

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

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


How to Sell Shares

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

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

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


      The reinvestment may be made without sales charge only in Class A
shares of the Fund or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which shares of
the Fund are exchangeable as described in "How to Exchange Shares" below.
Reinvestment will be at the net asset value next computed after the Transfer
Agent receives the reinvestment order. The shareholder must ask the Transfer
Agent for that privilege at the time of reinvestment. This privilege does not
apply to Class C, Class N or Class Y 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. This reinvestment
privilege does not apply to reinvestment purchases made through automatic
investment options.


      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.

      If shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder might incur
brokerage or other costs in selling the securities for cash. The Fund will
value securities used to pay redemptions in kind using the same method the
Fund uses to value its portfolio securities described above under
"Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share." That valuation will be made as
of the time the redemption price is determined.

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

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

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


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

         premature; and
(3)   conform to the requirements of the plan and the Fund's other redemption
         requirements.

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


      By requesting an Automatic Withdrawal or Exchange Plan, the shareholder
agrees to the terms and conditions that apply to such plans, as stated below.
These provisions may be amended from time to time by the 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 automatically exchange a pre-determined amount of shares of the Fund
for shares (of the same class) of other Oppenheimer funds that offer the
exchange privilege on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis under
an Automatic Exchange Plan. The minimum amount that may be exchanged to each
other fund account is $50. Instructions should be provided on the
OppenheimerFunds application or signature-guaranteed instructions. Exchanges
made under these plans are subject to the restrictions that apply to
exchanges as set forth in "How to Exchange Shares" in the Prospectus and
below in this Statement of Additional Information.


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Exchange Shares

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

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

   shares.

o     Oppenheimer  Institutional  Money Market Fund only offers Class E, Class
      L and Class P shares.

o     Class B and Class C shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are generally

      Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k) plans.
o     Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be
      exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may
      not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
      Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market
      Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M
      shares.

o     Class A shares of Oppenheimer funds may be exchanged at net asset value
      for shares of certain money market funds offered by the Distributor.
      Shares of certain money market funds purchased without a sales charge
      may be exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales
      charge upon payment of the sales charge.

o     Shares of the Fund acquired by reinvestment of dividends or
      distributions from any of the other Oppenheimer funds or from any unit
      investment trust for which reinvestment arrangements have been made
      with the Distributor may be exchanged at net asset value for shares of
      the same class of any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which you may
      exchange shares.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of the same class of any of the
      other Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,
      shareholders 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 the same class of any of the
      other Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,
      shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of other Oppenheimer
      funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II
      until after the expiration of the warranty period (3/3/2011).
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund III may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of the same class of any of the
      other Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,
      shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of other Oppenheimer
      funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund
      III until after the expiration of the warranty period (12/16/2011).

o     Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Developing
      Markets Fund may be acquired by exchange only with a minimum initial
      investment of $50,000. An existing shareholder of that fund may make
      additional exchanges into that fund with as little as $50.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund may be acquired
      only by existing shareholders of that fund. Existing shareholders may
      make exchanges into the fund with as little as $50.

     o In most cases,  shares of Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Value Fund may
be acquired only by shareholders who currently own shares of that Fund.

     o  Oppenheimer  Global  Value Fund only offers  Class A and Class Y shares.
Class Y shares of that fund may be  acquired  only by  participants  in  certain
group retirement plans that have an agreement with the Distributor.


      The 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 acquired by exchange of
Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund purchased subject to a Class A
contingent deferred sales charge are redeemed within 18 months measured from
the beginning of the calendar month of the initial purchase of the exchanged
Class A shares, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on
the redeemed shares. Except, however, with respect to Class A shares of
Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals
acquired prior to October 22, 2007, in which case the Class A contingent
deferred sales charge is imposed on the acquired shares if they are redeemed
within 24 months measured from the beginning of the calendar month of the
initial purchase of the exchanged Class A shares.

o     When Class A shares of Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals and
Rochester Fund Municipals acquired prior to October 22, 2007 by exchange of
Class A shares of any Oppenheimer fund purchased subject to a Class A
contingent deferred sales charge are redeemed within 24 months of the
beginning of the calendar month of the initial purchase of the exchanged
Class A shares, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on
the redeemed shares.


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

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

o     Except with respect to the Class B shares described in the next two
paragraphs, the contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B shares
acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within six years of the initial
purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

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

o     With respect to Class B shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves that were
acquired through the exchange of Class B shares initially purchased in the
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund, the Class B contingent deferred sales
charge is imposed on the acquired shares if they are redeemed within five
years of that initial purchase.

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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

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


      The tax discussion in the Prospectus and this Statement of Additional
Information is based on tax law in effect on the date of the Prospectus and
this Statement of Additional Information. Those laws and regulations may be
changed by legislative, judicial, or administrative action, sometimes with
retroactive effect. State and local tax treatment of ordinary income
dividends and capital gain dividends from regulated investment companies may
differ from the treatment under the Internal Revenue Code described below.
Potential purchasers of shares of the Fund are urged to consult their tax
advisors with specific reference to their own tax circumstances as well as
the consequences of federal, state and local tax rules affecting an
investment in the 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. That qualification enables the
Fund to "pass through" its income and realized capital gains to shareholders
without having to pay tax on them. This avoids a "double tax" on that income
and capital gains, since shareholders normally will be taxed on the dividends
and capital gains they receive from the Fund (unless their Fund shares are
held in a retirement account or the shareholder is otherwise exempt from
tax).


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

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


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

      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 or
in the securities of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships. For
purposes of this test, obligations issued or guaranteed by certain agencies
or instrumentalities of the U.S. government are treated as U.S. government
securities.


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

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

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

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

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

      Investment income that may be received by the Fund from sources within
foreign countries may be subject to foreign taxes withheld at the source. The
United States has entered into tax treaties with many foreign countries which
entitle the Fund to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, taxes on such
income. The Fund may be subject to U.S. Federal income tax, and an interest
charge, on certain distributions or gains from the sale of shares of a
foreign company considered to be a PFIC, even if those amounts are paid out
as dividends to shareholders. To avoid imposition of the interest charge, the
Fund may elect to "mark to market" all PFIC shares that it holds at the end
of each taxable year. In that case, any increase or decrease in the value of
those shares would be recognized as ordinary income or as ordinary loss (but
only to the extent of previously recognized "mark-to-market" gains).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      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 into which you may exchange
shares. Reinvestment will be made without sales charge at the net asset value
per share in effect at the close of business on the payable date of the
dividend or distribution. To elect this option, the shareholder must notify
the Transfer Agent in writing and must have an existing account in the fund
selected for reinvestment. Otherwise the shareholder first must obtain a
prospectus for that fund and an application from the Distributor to establish
an account. Dividends and/or distributions from shares of certain other
Oppenheimer funds may be invested in shares of 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. Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. is the custodian of the Fund's
assets. The custodian's responsibilities include safeguarding and controlling
the Fund's portfolio securities and handling the delivery of such securities
to and from the Fund. It is the practice of the Fund to deal with the
custodian in a manner uninfluenced by any banking relationship the custodian
may have with the Manager and its affiliates. The Fund's cash balances with
the custodian in excess of $100,000 are not protected by federal deposit
insurance. Those uninsured balances at times may be substantial.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. KPMG LLP serves as the
independent registered public accounting firm for the Fund.  KPMG LLP audits
the Fund's financial statements and performs other related audit and tax
services.  KPMG LLP also acts as the 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.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Oppenheimer Global Opportunities Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment
company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation
consistent with preservation of principal, while providing current income. The
Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).

      The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares.
Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset
value plus a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are
sold without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge (CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement
plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those
accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without
either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the institutional investor
may impose charges on those accounts. 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, C and N have
separate distribution and/or service plans. No such plan has been adopted for
Class Y shares. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six
years after the date of purchase. The Fund assesses a 2% fee on the proceeds of
fund shares that are redeemed (either by selling or exchanging to another
Oppenheimer fund) within 30 days of their purchase. The fee, which is retained
by the Fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.

      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 may
be valued  primarily  using  dealer-supplied  valuations or a portfolio  pricing
service  authorized  by the Board of  Trustees.  Securities  listed or traded on
National  Stock  Exchanges or other  domestic  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(R) 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.  Securities traded on
foreign  exchanges  are  valued  based on the last sale  price on the  principal
exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing
service,  prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of
a sale,  the security is valued at the official  closing  price on the principal
exchange.  Corporate,   government  and  municipal  debt  instruments  having  a
remaining  maturity in excess of sixty days and all  mortgage-backed  securities
will be  valued  at the mean  between  the "bid"  and  "asked"  prices.  Futures
contracts  traded on a  commodities  or futures  exchange  will be valued at the
final settlement  price or official  closing price on the principal  exchange as
reported by such  principal  exchange at its trading  session ending at, or most
recently  prior to, the time when the  Fund's  assets are  valued.  Options  are
valued daily based upon the last sale price on the  principal  exchange on which
the option is traded.  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.  Investments  in
open-end registered investment companies (including affiliated funds) are valued
at that fund's net asset value.  Short-term  "money market type" debt securities
with  remaining  maturities  of sixty days or less are valued at amortized  cost
(which approximates market value).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Fund's accounting records are maintained in
U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and
amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign
investment income are translated into U.S. dollars 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. Foreign exchange rates may be valued
primarily using dealer supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees.

      Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of
portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and
settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the
amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the
Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or
paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the
values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal
period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

      The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued

INVESTMENT IN OPPENHEIMER INSTITUTIONAL MONEY MARKET FUND. The Fund is permitted
to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The
Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer
Institutional Money Market Fund ("IMMF") which seeks current income and
stability of principal. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment
company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment advisor of IMMF. The Fund's
investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments, if applicable.
As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF's Class
E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or
reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees
incurred through the Fund's investment in IMMF.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.





Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for September 30,
2007. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

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 September 30, 2007 are noted below. The
primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of
securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax
deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or
loss.

Certain foreign countries impose a tax on capital gains which is accrued by the
Fund based on unrealized appreciation, if any, on affected securities. The tax
is paid when the gain is realized.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the
"Plan") for the Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of
service and fees paid to each trustee during their period of service. The Plan
was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006
(the "Freeze Date") and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will
continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active independent trustees
as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to
their benefits under the Plan. During the year ended September 30, 2007, the
Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by $171,857

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued

and payments of $141,871 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an
accumulated liability of $470,785 as of September 30, 2007.

      The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral 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 compensation deferral 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 and capital gain distributions, if
any, are declared and paid annually.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and amortization
of premium, is accrued as earned.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CUSTODIAN FEES. "Custodian fees and expenses" in the Statement of Operations may
include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its
custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the
effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows
resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays
interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not
offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the
Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The "Reduction to custodian expenses" line item,
if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund
during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid
with these earnings.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.





--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INDEMNIFICATIONS. The Fund's organizational documents provide current and former
trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising
in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal
course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general
indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the
Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

$7,827,647 to OFS for services to the Fund.

      Additionally, Class Y shares are subject to minimum fees of $10,000 per
annum for assets of $10 million or more. The Class Y shares are subject to the
minimum fees in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the
applicable minimum fees. OFS may voluntarily waive the minimum fees.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets
of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees
to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically 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
periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plan are detailed in the Statement
of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS FOR CLASS B, CLASS C AND CLASS N SHARES. The Fund
has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
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% on Class B and
Class C shares and 0.25% on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a
service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or
Class N 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 determines its
uncompensated expenses under the plan at calendar quarter ends. The
Distributor's aggregate uncompensated expenses under the plan at September 30,
2007 for Class B, Class C and Class N shares were $9,801,822, $9,919,995 and
$946,172, respectively. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plans are detailed
in the Statement of Operations.

5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS

A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into foreign
currency contracts to settle specific purchases or sales of securities
denominated in a foreign currency and for protection from adverse exchange rate
fluctuation. Risks to the Fund include the potential inability of the
counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.

      The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using prevailing foreign currency exchange rates.
Unrealized appreciation and depreciation on foreign currency contracts are
reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable
and in the Statement of Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation.

      The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the
foreign transaction. Contracts closed or settled with the same broker are
recorded as net realized gains or losses. Such realized gains and losses are
reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of
Operations.





As of September 30, 2007, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as
follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. ILLIQUID SECURITIES

As of September 30, 2007, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available
market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of
purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. Securities that are
illiquid are marked with the applicable footnote on the Statement of
Investments.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SECURITIES LENDING

The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. In return, the Fund receives collateral in the form of
securities, letters of credit or cash, against the loaned securities and
maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the
loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned
securities is determined at the close of business each day. If the Fund is
undercollateralized at the close of business due to an increase in market value
of securities on loan, additional collateral is requested from the borrowing
counterparty and is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash
collateral may be invested in approved investments and the Fund bears the risk
of any loss in value of these investments. The Fund retains a portion of the
interest earned from the collateral. If the borrower defaults on its obligation
to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund
could experience delays and cost in recovering the securities loaned or in
gaining access to the collateral. The Fund continues to receive the economic
benefit of interest or dividends paid on the securities loaned in the form of a
substitute payment received from the borrower. As of September 30, 2007, the
Fund had no securities on loan.

8. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXEs.
FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an
enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109,
ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions
taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it
is "more-likely-than-not" that tax positions taken in the Fund's tax return will
be ultimately sustained. A tax liability and expense must be recorded in respect
of any tax position that, in Management's judgment, will not be fully realized.
FIN 48 is

effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. As of September
30, 2007, the Manager has evaluated the implications of FIN 48 and does not
currently anticipate a material impact to the Fund's financial statements. The
Manager will continue to monitor the Fund's tax positions prospectively for
potential future impacts.

      In September 2006, ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS. This standard establishes a
single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS
No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by
existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. As of September 30, 2007, the Manager does not believe the
adoption of SFAS No. 157 will materially impact the financial statement amounts;
however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop
the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net
assets for the period.


                                  Appendix A

                             RATINGS DEFINITIONS

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

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

LONG-TERM RATINGS: BONDS AND PREFERRED STOCK ISSUER RATINGS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

N.R. Not rated.

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

Bond Investment Quality Standards

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Investment Grade:

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

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.


                                  Appendix B

     OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers


     In certain  cases,  the initial  sales  charge that applies to purchases of
Class A shares(2) 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  the  purposes  of  some  of the  waivers  described  below  and in the
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer
funds, the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:

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

     2) non-qualified  deferred compensation plans,

     3) employee  benefit  plans(4)

     4) Group  Retirement  Plans(5)

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

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

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

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

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

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


     There is no initial  sales  charge on purchases of Class A shares of any of
the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases may be
subject to the Class A contingent  deferred  sales charge if redeemed  within 18
months  (24  months  in the case of  shares of  Oppenheimer  Rochester  National
Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals purchased prior to October 22, 2007) 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,  prior to March 1, 2007,  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 $5 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

            the Fund or any one or more of the Former Connecticut Mutual
            Funds, provided the institution had an agreement with CMFS.

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

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

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

In addition to the waivers set forth in the Prospectus and in this Appendix,
above, the contingent deferred sales charge will be waived for redemptions of
Class A and Class B shares of a Fund and exchanges of Class A or Class B
shares of a Fund into Class A or Class B shares of a Former Connecticut
Mutual Fund provided that the Class A or Class B shares of the Fund to be
redeemed or exchanged were (i) acquired prior to March 18, 1996 or (ii) were
acquired by exchange from an Oppenheimer fund that was a Former Connecticut
Mutual Fund. Additionally, the shares of such Former Connecticut Mutual Fund
must have been purchased prior to March 18, 1996:
   1) by the estate of a deceased shareholder;
   2) upon the disability of a shareholder, as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of
      the Internal Revenue Code;
   3) for retirement distributions (or loans) to participants or
      beneficiaries from retirement plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or
      403(b)(7)of the Code, or from IRAs, deferred compensation plans created
      under Section 457 of the Code, or other employee benefit plans;
4)    as tax-free returns of excess contributions to such retirement or
      employee benefit plans;
   5) in whole or in part, in connection with shares sold to any state,
      county, or city, or any instrumentality, department, authority, or
      agency thereof, that is prohibited by applicable investment laws from
      paying a sales charge or concession in connection with the purchase of
      shares of any registered investment management company;
   6) in connection with the redemption of shares of the Fund due to a
      combination with another investment company by virtue of a merger,
      acquisition or similar reorganization transaction;
   7) in connection with the Fund's right to involuntarily redeem or
      liquidate the Fund;
   8) in connection with automatic redemptions of Class A shares and Class B
      shares in certain retirement plan accounts pursuant to an Automatic
      Withdrawal Plan but limited to no more than 12% of the original value
      annually; or
   9) as involuntary redemptions of shares by operation of law, or under
      procedures set forth in the Fund's Articles of Incorporation, or as
      adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund.
VI.   Special Reduced Sales Charge for Former Shareholders of Advance
      America Funds, Inc.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shareholders of Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals, Oppenheimer U.S. Government
Trust, Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Income Fund
who acquired (and still hold) shares of those funds as a result of the
reorganization of series of Advance America Funds, Inc. into those
Oppenheimer funds on October 18, 1991, and who held shares of Advance America
Funds, Inc. on March 30, 1990, may purchase Class A shares of those four
Oppenheimer funds at a maximum sales charge rate of 4.50%.
VII.  Sales Charge Waivers on Purchases of Class M Shares of Oppenheimer
      Convertible Securities Fund
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund (referred to as the "Fund" in this
section) may sell Class M shares at net asset value without any initial sales
charge to the classes of investors listed below who, prior to March 11, 1996,
owned shares of the Fund's then-existing Class A and were permitted to
purchase those shares at net asset value without sales charge:
|_|   the Manager and its affiliates,
|_|   present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and

        their "immediate families" as defined in the Fund's Statement of
        Additional Information) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates,
        and retirement plans established by them or the prior investment
        adviser of the Fund for their employees,
|_|   registered management investment companies or separate accounts of
        insurance companies that had an agreement with the Fund's prior
        investment adviser or distributor for that purpose,

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

|_|   dealers, brokers, or registered investment advisers that had entered
        into an agreement with the Distributor or the prior distributor of
        the Fund specifically providing for the use of Class M shares of the
        Fund in specific investment products made available to their clients,
        and
|_|   dealers, brokers or registered investment advisers that had entered
        into an agreement with the Distributor or prior distributor of the
        Fund's shares to sell shares to defined contribution employee
        retirement plans for which the dealer, broker, or investment adviser
        provides administrative services.


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

(2) Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.
(3) In the case of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund, a
continuously-offered closed-end fund, references to contingent deferred sales
charges mean the Fund's Early Withdrawal Charges and references to
"redemptions" mean "repurchases" of shares.

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

None.

Item 25. - Indemnification

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

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

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

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

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