OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL VALUE FUND

Supplement dated April 20, 2012 to the

Prospectus dated March 29, 2012

This supplement amends the Prospectus, dated March 29, 2012, of Oppenheimer International Value Fund (the “Fund”).

The section titled “Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies,” on page 8, is deleted in its entirety and is replaced with the following:

Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies. The Fund may invest in the securities of small, unseasoned companies that have been in operation for less than three years. In addition to the risks of other small-sized issuers, the price of the securities of these companies may be particularly volatile, especially in the short term, and may have very limited liquidity. Securities of small, newer companies are also subject to greater risks of default than those of larger, more established issuers.
