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. The Fund is a special type of fund known as a "fund of funds" that invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds. Those funds are referred to as the "Underlying Funds." This SAI contains supplemental information about those policies and risks and the types of securities that the investment manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the "Manager"), can select for the Fund or the Underlying Funds. 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 Fund normally invests in a portfolio of Class Y shares of the Underlying Funds. The Fund may invest in Class A shares of an Underlying Fund if Class Y shares are not available. The composition of those investments, and the factors considered in allocating the Fund's assets among the Underlying Funds, will vary over time. The Fund and Underlying Funds are not required to use all of the investment techniques and strategies described below in seeking their objectives. They may use some of the special investment techniques and strategies only at some times or not at all.

From time to time, the Fund may also invest in the securities of individual issuers directly, as described below. The risks of such direct investments in those securities are the same risks that the securities have in the portfolios of the Underlying Funds. However, the Fund may have greater exposure to such securities, and therefore to such risks, when it makes a direct investment.

The Underlying Funds' Investment Policies. The Fund's Prospectus includes the investment objective and a brief description of each of the Underlying Funds. The Underlying Funds are currently: Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund ("Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund"), Oppenheimer Currency Opportunities Fund ("Currency Opportunities Fund"), Oppenheimer Global Multi Strategies Fund ("Global Multi Strategies Fund"), Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund ("Gold & Special Minerals Fund"), Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund ("Real Estate Fund"), Oppenheimer Short Duration Fund ("Short Duration Fund"), Oppenheimer SteelPath Master MLP Fund, LLC ("SteelPath Master MLP Fund"), Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP Alpha Fund ("SteelPath Alpha Fund"), Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP Select 40 Fund ("SteelPath Select 40 Fund"), and Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP and Infrastructure Debt Fund ("SteelPath MLP and Infrastructure Debt Fund").

Set forth below is supplemental information about the types of securities the Underlying Funds may invest in, as well as investment techniques or strategies the Underlying Funds may use to try to achieve their objectives. The choice of Underlying Funds, the objectives and investment policies of the Underlying Funds and the Fund's allocations to the Underlying Funds may change without notice to or approval of the Fund's shareholders.

For more complete information about each Underlying Fund's investment policies and strategies, please refer to each Underlying Fund's prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. You may obtain a copy of an Underlying Fund's prospectus and Statement of Additional Information by calling 1.800.225.5677, or by downloading it from the OppenheimerFunds, Inc. website at www.oppenheimefunds.com.

The Fund's Investment Policies

Equity Securities. Equity securities include common stocks, preferred stocks, rights and warrants, and securities convertible into common stock. Some equity securities may offer the potential for both capital appreciation and dividend income.

For specific information on an Underlying Fund's investments in equity securities and any limitations on those investments, please refer to the Underlying Fund's Prospectus and SAI.

Preferred Stock. Preferred stock are equity securities that have a dividend rate payable from the company's earnings. Their stated dividend rate causes preferred stock to have some characteristics of debt securities. If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stock may be less attractive and the price of those securities will likely decline. If interest rates fall their price will likely increase.

Preferred stock dividends may be cumulative or non-cumulative, participating, or auction rate. "Cumulative" dividend provisions require that all, or a portion of, any unpaid dividends must be paid before the issuer can pay dividends on its common stock. "Participating" preferred stock may be entitled to a larger dividend than the stated dividend in certain cases. "Auction rate" preferred stock has a dividend rate that is set by a Dutch auction process.

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 fall.

Preferred stock do not constitute a liability of the issuer and therefore do not offer the same degree of capital protection or assured income as debt securities. Preferred stock generally rank ahead of common stock and behind debt securities in claims for dividends and for assets of the issuer in a liquidation or bankruptcy.

Convertible Securities. Convertible securities are debt securities or preferred stocks that are convertible into the issuer's common stock or other equity securities. While many convertible securities are considered to be mainly debt securities, certain convertible securities are regarded more as "equity equivalents" because of their conversion feature. The market value of a convertible security reflects both its "investment value," which is its expected income potential, and its "conversion value," which is its anticipated market value if it were converted. If its investment value exceeds its conversion value, the security will generally behave more like a debt security, and the security's price will likely increase when interest rates fall and decrease when interest rates rise. If its conversion value exceeds its investment value, the security will generally behave more like an equity security. In that case, its price will tend to fluctuate with the price of the underlying common stock or other security.

Convertible debt securities, like other debt securities, are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk. Convertible securities rank senior to common stock in a corporation's capital structure and therefore are subject to less risk than common stock in case of an issuer's bankruptcy or liquidation.

For convertible securities that are considered to be "equity equivalents," their credit quality generally has less impact on the security's value than in the case of non-convertible debt securities. To determine whether convertible securities should be regarded as "equity equivalents," the Sub-Adviser may consider a number of factors, including:

whether the convertible security can be exchanged for a fixed number of shares of common stock of the issuer or is subject to a "cap" or a conversion formula or other type of limit;

whether the convertible security can be exchanged at a time determined by the investor rather than by the issuer;

whether the issuer of the convertible securities has restated its earnings per share on a fully diluted basis (that is, as if all of the issuer's convertible securities were converted into common stock); and

the extent to which the convertible security may participate in any appreciation in the price of the issuer's common stock.

Rights and Warrants. Rights and warrants may be purchased directly or may be acquired as part of other securities. Warrants are options to purchase equity securities at a specific price during a specific period of time. The price of a warrant does not necessarily move parallel to the price of the underlying security and is generally more volatile than the price of the underlying security. Rights are similar to warrants, but normally have a shorter duration. The market for rights or warrants may be very limited and it may be difficult to sell them promptly at an acceptable price. Rights and warrants have no voting rights, receive no dividends and have no rights with respect to the assets of the issuer.

Growth Companies. Growth companies are those companies whose earnings and stock prices are expected to increase at a faster rate than the overall market. They may be established companies as well as newer companies in the development stage. Growth companies may have a variety of factors that characterize them as "growth" issuers. They might:

be generating or applying new technologies, new or improved distribution techniques or new services,

own or develop natural resources,

be companies that can benefit from changing consumer demands or lifestyles, or

be companies that have projected earnings in excess of the average for their sector or industry.

Securities of newer growth companies might offer greater opportunities for capital appreciation than securities of larger, more established companies. However, these securities also involve greater risks than securities of more established companies.

Value Investing. A value investing approach seeks stocks and other equity securities that appear to be temporarily undervalued by various measures such as price/earnings ratios. Value investing looks for securities with low prices in relation to their real worth or future prospects in the hope that the prices will rise when other investors realize the intrinsic value of the securities.

Value investing uses research into an issuer's underlying financial condition and prospects to identify potential investments. Some of the criteria that may be used are:

Price/earnings ratio, which is a stock's price divided by its earnings (or its long-term earnings potential) per share. A stock that has a price/earnings ratio lower than its historical range, or lower than the market as a whole or than similar companies, may offer an attractive investment opportunity.

Price/book value ratio, which is the stock price divided by the book value per share of the company.

Dividend yield, which is measured by dividing the annual dividend by the stock price per share.

Asset valuation, which compares the stock price to the value of the company's underlying assets, including their projected value in the marketplace, their liquidation value and their intellectual property value.

Small- and Mid-Cap Issuers. Securities of small- and mid-sized issuers may be subject to greater price volatility than securities of larger issuers. Certain Underlying Funds focus on equity securities of issuers having a market capitalization of a specified size or range, and therefore may invest a substantial portion of their assets in securities of small-, mid- or large-sized issuers. Other Underlying Funds may, from time to time, emphasize issuers in one or more capitalization ranges based on the Manager's judgment of where the best market opportunities are. If an Underlying Fund focuses on investments in smaller sized companies its share prices may fluctuate more than that of funds focusing on larger issuers. The market capitalization ranges used by the Underlying Funds will vary from fund to fund.

Investing in Small, Unseasoned Companies. These are companies that have typically been in operation for less than three years, including the operations of any predecessors. Because small, unseasoned companies may be less secure financially, they may rely on borrowing to a greater extent. In that case, they may be more susceptible to adverse changes in interest rates than larger, more established companies. Small, unseasoned companies may also offer fewer products and rely on fewer key personnel. Market or economic developments may have a significant impact on these companies and on the value of their securities. These companies may have a limited trading market and the prices of their securities may be volatile, which could make them difficult to sell in a short period of time at a reasonable price. If other investors that own the security are trading it at the same time, it may have a more significant effect on the security's price than that trading activity would have on the security price of a larger company. These securities may be considered speculative and could increase overall portfolio risks.

Cyclical Opportunities. Some of the Underlying Funds seek to take advantage of short-term market movements or events affecting particular issuers or industries by investing in companies that are sensitive to changes in the business cycle. For example, when the economy is expanding, companies in the consumer durables and technology sector might benefit. There is the risk that those securities might lose value if the business cycle becomes unfavorable to that issuer or industry or if the favorable cyclical movement is not realized.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). 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 that 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.

REITs are sometimes informally characterized as equity REITs, mortgage REITs and hybrid REITs. An equity REIT invests primarily in the fee ownership or leasehold ownership of land and buildings and derives its income primarily from rental income. An equity REIT may also realize capital gains (or losses) by selling real estate properties in its portfolio that have appreciated (or depreciated) in value. A mortgage REIT invests primarily in mortgages on real estate, which may secure construction, development or long-term loans. A mortgage REIT generally derives its income primarily from interest payments on the credit it has extended. A hybrid REIT combines the characteristics of equity REITs and mortgage REITs, generally by holding both ownership interests and mortgage interests in real estate. It is anticipated, although not required, that under normal circumstances a majority of the Fund's investments in REITs will consist of equity REITs.

Some of the Underlying Funds can invest in real estate development companies and operating companies in addition to REITs. They can also buy shares of companies engaged in other real estate businesses.

Investments in Metal Investments. Gold & Special Minerals Fund focuses its investments in equity securities of U.S. and foreign-domiciled companies. Gold & Special Minerals Fund's investments primarily include stocks of companies that are involved in mining or processing gold or other metals or minerals, are described as "Mining Securities."

Gold & Special Minerals Fund may also invest in gold or silver bullion, in other precious metals, in metals naturally occurring with precious metals, in certificates representing an ownership interest in those metals, and in gold or silver coins. These investments are referred to as "Metal Investments." Under normal market conditions, Gold & Special Minerals Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in Mining Securities and Metal Investments. However, Gold & Special Minerals Fund will invest no more than 10% of its total net assets in Metal Investments.

Special Risks of Investments in Mining Securities, Metal Investments and Gold ETFs. The Underlying Funds' prospectuses describe whether and to what extent each Underlying Fund may invest in Mining Securities, Metal Investments and/or Gold ETFs. Investments in Mining Securities, Metal Investments and Gold ETFs involve additional risks and considerations not typically associated with other types of investments: (1) the risk of substantial price fluctuations of gold and precious metals; (2) the concentration of gold supply is mainly in five territories (South Africa, Australia, the Commonwealth of Independent States (the former Soviet Union), Canada and the United States), and the prevailing economic and political conditions of these countries may have a direct effect on the production and marketing of gold and sales of central bank gold holdings; (3) unpredictable international monetary policies, economic and political conditions; (4) possible U.S. governmental regulation of Metal Investments, as well as foreign regulation of such investments; and (5) possible adverse tax consequences for an Underlying Fund in making Metal Investments, if it fails to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. An adverse change with respect to any of these risk factors could have a significant negative effect on the Underlying Fund's net asset value per share. These risks are discussed in greater detail below.

Risk of Price Fluctuations. The prices of precious and strategic metals are affected by various factors such as economic conditions, political events, governmental monetary and regulatory policies and market events. The prices of Mining Securities and Metal Investments held by Gold & Special Minerals Fund may fluctuate sharply, which will affect the value of Gold & Special Minerals Fund's shares.

Concentration of Source of Gold Supply and Control of Gold Sales. Currently, the five largest producers of gold are the Republic of South Africa, Australia, the Commonwealth of Independent States (which includes Russia and certain other countries that were part of the former Soviet Union), Canada and the United States. Economic and political conditions in those countries may have a direct effect on the production and marketing of gold and on sales of central bank gold holdings. In South Africa, the activities of companies engaged in gold mining are subject to the policies adopted by the Ministry of Mines. The Reserve Bank of South Africa, as the sole authorized sales agent for South African gold, has an influence on the price and timing of sales of South African gold. Political and social conditions in South Africa are still somewhat unsettled and may pose certain risks to Gold & Special Minerals Fund (in addition to the risks described below under the caption "Foreign Securities"), because Gold & Special Minerals Fund may hold a portion of its assets in securities of South African issuers.

Unpredictable International Monetary Policies, Economic and Political Conditions. There is the possibility that unusual international monetary or political conditions may make Gold & Special Minerals Fund's portfolio assets less liquid, or that the value of Gold & Special Minerals Fund's assets might be more volatile, than would be the case with other investments. In particular, the price of gold is affected by its direct and indirect use to settle net balance of payments deficits and surpluses between nations. Because the prices of precious or strategic metals may be affected by unpredictable international monetary policies and economic conditions, there may be greater likelihood of a more dramatic fluctuation of the market prices of Gold & Special Minerals Fund's investments than of other investments.

Commodities Regulations. The trading of Metal Investments in the United States could become subject to the rules that govern the trading of agricultural and certain other commodities and commodity futures. In the opinion of Gold & Special Minerals Fund's counsel, at present Gold & Special Minerals Fund's permitted Metal Investments are either not subject to regulation by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") or an exemption from regulation is available. The absence of CFTC regulation may adversely affect the continued development of an orderly market in Metal Investments trading in the United States. The development of a regulated futures market in Metal Investments trading may affect the development of a market in, and the price of, Metal Investments in the United States.

Effect on Gold & Special Minerals Fund's Tax Status. By making Metal Investments, Gold & Special Minerals Fund risks failing to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. If Gold & Special Minerals Fund should fail to qualify, it would lose the beneficial tax treatment accorded to qualifying regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Code. Failure to qualify would occur if in any fiscal year Gold & Special Minerals Fund either (a) derived 10% or more of its gross income (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, which disregards losses for this purpose) from sales or other dispositions of Metal Investments and other non-qualifying income, or (b) held more than 50% of its net assets in the form of Metal Investments or in securities not meeting certain tests under the Internal Revenue Code (see "Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes"). Accordingly, Gold & Special Minerals Fund will endeavor to manage its portfolio within the limitations described above, and Gold & Special Minerals Fund has adopted an investment restriction limiting the amount of its total assets that can be invested in Metal Investments. There can be no assurance that Gold & Special Minerals Fund will qualify as a regulated investment company in every year. Furthermore, to comply with the limitations described above, Gold & Special Minerals Fund may be required to make investment decisions the Manager would otherwise not make, foregoing the opportunity to realize gains, if necessary, to permit Gold & Special Minerals Fund to qualify. See "Investment Restrictions" in the Gold & Special Minerals SAI.

Event-Linked Bonds. Event-linked bonds, which are sometimes referred to as "catastrophe" bonds, are fixed income securities for which the return of principal and payment of interest is contingent on the non-occurrence of a specific trigger event, such as a hurricane, earthquake, or other occurrence that leads to physical or economic loss. In some cases, the trigger event will not be deemed to have occurred unless the event is of a certain magnitude (based on scientific readings) or causes a certain measurable amount of loss to the issuer, a particular industry group or a reference index. If the trigger event occurs prior to maturity, a Fund may lose all or a portion of its principal and additional interest. The Funds may also invest in similar bonds where a Fund may lose all or a portion of its principal and additional interest if the mortality rate in a geographic area exceeds a stated threshold prior to maturity whether or not a particular catastrophic event has occurred.

Event-linked bonds may be issued by government agencies, insurance companies, reinsurers, and financial institutions, among other issuers, or special purpose vehicles associated with the foregoing. Often event-linked bonds provide for extensions of maturity in order to process and audit loss claims in those cases when a trigger event has occurred or is likely to have occurred. An extension of maturity may increase a bond's volatility.

Event-linked bonds may expose the Underlying Fund to certain other risks, including issuer default, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations, liquidity risk and adverse tax consequences. Lack of a liquid market may result in higher transaction costs and the possibility that a fund may be forced to liquidate positions when it would not be advantageous to do so. Event-linked bonds are typically rated by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating organizations.

Energy Infrastructure Industry
The MLPs in which the Underlying Funds managed by SteelPath invest are engaged in the: (i) gathering, transporting, processing, treating, terminalling, storing, refining, distributing, mining or marketing of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, refined products or coal, (ii) the acquisition, exploitation and development of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, (iii) processing, treating, and refining of natural gas liquids and crude oil, and (iv) owning, managing and transporting alternative energy infrastructure assets, including alternative fuels such as ethanol, hydrogen and biodiesel. These MLPs are subject to many of the risks associated with investments in the energy infrastructure companies, including the following:

Commodity Risks. The return on an investment in an MLP will depend on the margins received by MLPs and energy infrastructure companies. These margins may fluctuate widely in response to a variety of factors including global and domestic economic conditions, weather conditions, natural disasters, the supply and price of imported energy commodities, the production and storage levels of energy, political instability, terrorist activities, transportation facilities, energy conservation, domestic and foreign governmental regulation and taxation and the availability of local, intrastate and interstate transportation systems. Volatility of commodity prices also may make it more difficult for MLPs and energy infrastructure companies to raise capital to the extent the market perceives that their performance may be directly or indirectly tied to commodity prices.

Supply and Demand Risks. A decrease in the production of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, coal or other energy commodities, a reduction in the volume of such commodities available for transportation, mining, processing, storage or distribution, or a sustained decline in demand for such commodities, may adversely affect the financial performance or prospects of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies. MLPs and energy infrastructure companies are subject to supply and demand fluctuations in the markets they serve which will be impacted by a wide range of factors, including fluctuating commodity prices, weather, increased conservation or use of alternative fuel sources, increased governmental or environmental regulation, depletion, growing interest rates, declines in domestic or foreign production, accidents or catastrophic events, and economic conditions, among others.

Operational Risks. MLPs and energy infrastructure companies are subject to various operational risks, such as disruption of operations, inability to timely and effectively integrate newly acquired assets, unanticipated expenses, lack of proper asset integrity, underestimated cost projections, inability to renew or increased costs of rights of way, failure to obtain the necessary permits to operate and failure of third-party contractors to perform their contractual obligations. Thus, some MLPs and energy infrastructure companies may be subject to construction risk, acquisition risk or other risks arising from their specific business strategies.

Acquisition Risks. The ability of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies to grow and, where applicable, to increase dividends or distributions to their equity holders can be highly dependent on their ability to make acquisitions of energy businesses that result in an increase in free cash flow. In the event that such companies are unable to make such acquisitions, their future growth and ability to make or raise dividends or distributions will be limited and their ability to repay their debt and make payments to preferred equity holders may be weakened. Furthermore, even if these companies do consummate acquisitions that they believe will be accretive, the acquisitions may instead result in a decrease in free cash flow.

Regulatory Risks. MLPs and energy infrastructure companies are subject to significant federal, state and local government regulation in virtually every aspect of their operations. Various governmental authorities have the power to enforce compliance with these regulations and the permits issued under them, and violators are subject to administrative, civil and criminal penalties, including civil fines, injunctions or both. More extensive laws, regulations or enforcement policies could be enacted in the future which would likely increase compliance costs and may adversely affect the financial performance of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies.

Rising Interest Rate Risks. The values of debt and equity securities of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies held by the Underlying Funds are susceptible to decline when interest rates rise. Rising interest rates could adversely impact the financial performance of these companies by increasing their costs of capital. This may reduce their ability to execute acquisitions or expansion projects in a cost-effective manner.

Terrorism Risks. The terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001 had a disruptive effect on the economy and the securities markets. Events in the Middle East could have significant adverse effects on the U.S. economy and the stock market. Uncertainty surrounding military strikes or actions or a sustained military campaign may affect an MLP's or energy infrastructure company's operations in unpredictable ways, including disruptions of fuel supplies and markets, and transmission and distribution facilities could be direct targets, or indirect casualties, of an act of terror. The U.S. government has issued warnings that energy assets, specifically the United States' pipeline infrastructure, may be the future target of terrorist organizations. In addition, changes in the insurance markets have made certain types of insurance more difficult, if not impossible, to obtain and have generally resulted in increased premium costs.

Weather Risks. Extreme weather patterns or environmental hazards, such as the BP oil spill in 2010, could result in significant volatility in the supply of energy and power and could adversely impact the value of the debt and equity securities of the MLPs and energy infrastructure industry in which an Underlying Fund may invest. This volatility may create fluctuations in commodity prices and earnings of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies.

Catastrophe Risk. The operations of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies are subject to many hazards, including: damage to pipelines, storage tanks or related equipment and surrounding properties caused by hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires and other natural disasters; inadvertent damage from construction or other equipment; leaks of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, refined petroleum products or other hydrocarbons; and fires and explosions. These risks could result in substantial losses due to personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment and pollution or other environmental damage and may result in the curtailment or suspension of their related operations. Not all MLPs and energy infrastructure companies are fully insured against all risks inherent to their businesses. If a significant accident or event occurs that is not fully insured, it could adversely affect an MLP's or energy infrastructure company's operations and financial condition and the securities issued by the company.

Competition Risk. The MLPs and energy infrastructure companies may face substantial competition in acquiring assets, expanding or constructing assets and facilities, obtaining and retaining customers and contracts, securing trained personnel and operating their assets. Many of their competitors, including major oil companies, independent exploration and production companies, MLPs and other diversified energy companies, will have superior financial and other resources.

Depletion and Exploration Risk. Energy reserves naturally deplete as they are produced over time. Many energy companies are either engaged in the production of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, or coal, or are engaged in transporting, storing, distributing and processing these items or their derivatives on behalf of shippers. To maintain or grow their revenues, these companies or their customers need to maintain or expand their reserves through exploration of new sources of supply, through the development of existing sources or, through acquisitions. The financial performance of MLPs and energy infrastructure companies may be adversely affected if they, or the companies to whom they provide the service, are unable to cost-effectively acquire additional reserves sufficient to replace the depleted reserves. If an MLP or energy infrastructure company fails to add reserves by acquiring or developing them, its reserves and production will decline over time as the reserves are produced. If an MLP or energy infrastructure company is not able to raise capital on favorable terms, it may not be able to add to or maintain its reserves.

Financing Risk. Some MLPs and energy infrastructure companies may rely on capital markets to raise money to pay their existing obligations. Their ability to access the capital markets on attractive terms or at all may be affected by any of the risk factors associated with MLPs and energy infrastructure companies described above, by general economic and market conditions or by other factors. This may in turn affect their ability to satisfy their obligations to us. In addition, certain MLPs and energy infrastructure companies are dependent on their parents or sponsors for a majority of their revenues.

Master Limited Partnerships
The Underlying Funds managed by SteelPath primarily invest in MLPs that primarily derive their revenue from energy infrastructure assets and energy related assets or activities, including businesses: (i) involved in the gathering, transporting, processing, treating, terminalling, storing, refining, distributing, mining or marketing of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, refined products or coal ("Midstream MLPs''), (ii) primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploitation and development of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids ("Upstream MLPs''), (iii) that process, treat, and refine natural gas liquids and crude oil ("Downstream MLPs''), and (iv) engaged in owning, managing, and the transportation of alternative energy infrastructure assets including alternative fuels such as ethanol, hydrogen and biodiesel ("Other Energy MLPs'').

MLP Equity Securities. Equity securities issued by MLPs currently consist of common units, subordinated units and preferred units, as described more fully below.

MLP Common Units. The common units of many MLPs are listed and traded on U.S. securities exchanges, including the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE'') and the Nasdaq National Market System ("Nasdaq''). MLP common units can be purchased through open market transactions and underwritten offerings, but may also be acquired through direct placements and privately negotiated transactions. Holders of MLP common units typically have very limited control and voting rights. Holders of such common units are typically entitled to receive the minimum quarterly distribution ("MQD"), including arrearage rights, from the issuer. Generally, an MLP must pay (or set aside for payment) the MQD to holders of common units before any distributions may be paid to subordinated unit holders. In addition, incentive distributions are typically not paid to the general partner or managing member unless the quarterly distributions on the common units exceed specified threshold levels above the MQD. In the event of liquidation, common unit holders are intended to have a preference to the remaining assets of the issuer over holders of subordinated units. MLPs also issue different classes of common units that may have different voting, trading, and distribution rights.

MLP Subordinated Units. Subordinated units, which, like common units, represent limited partner or member interests, are not typically listed or traded on an exchange. Outstanding subordinated units may be purchased through negotiated transactions directly with holders of such units or newly issued subordinated units may be purchased directly from the issuer. Holders of such subordinated units are generally entitled to receive a distribution only after the MQD and any arrearages from prior quarters have been paid to holders of common units. Holders of subordinated units typically have the right to receive distributions before any incentive distributions are payable to the general partner or managing member. Subordinated units generally do not provide arrearage rights. Most MLP subordinated units are convertible into common units after the passage of a specified period of time or upon the achievement by the issuer of specified financial goals. MLPs also issue different classes of subordinated units that may have different voting, trading, and distribution rights.

MLP Convertible Subordinated Units. MLP convertible subordinated units are typically issued by MLPs to founders, corporate general partners of MLPs, entities that sell assets to the MLPs, and institutional investors. The purpose of the convertible subordinated units is to increase the likelihood that during the subordination period there will be available cash to be distributed to common unitholders. Subordinated units may be purchased in direct placements from such persons or other persons that may hold such units. MLP convertible subordinated units generally are not entitled to distributions until holders of common units have received specified MQD, plus any arrearages, and may receive less than common unitholders in distributions upon liquidation. Convertible subordinated unitholders generally are entitled to MQD prior to the payment of incentive distributions to the general partner, but are not entitled to arrearage rights. Therefore, MLP convertible subordinated units generally entail greater risk than MLP common units. They are generally convertible automatically into the senior common units of the same issuer at a one-to-one ratio upon the passage of time or the satisfaction of certain financial tests. Although the means by which convertible subordinated units convert into senior common units depend on a security's specific terms, MLP convertible subordinated units typically are exchanged for common shares. These units do not trade on a national exchange or OTC, and there is no active market for convertible subordinated units. The value of a convertible subordinated unit is a function of its worth if converted into the underlying common units. Convertible subordinated units generally have similar voting rights as do MLP common units. Distributions may be paid in cash or in-kind.

MLP Preferred Units. MLP preferred units are not typically listed or traded on an exchange. MLP preferred units can be purchased through negotiated transactions directly with MLPs, affiliates of MLPs and institutional holders of such units. Holders of MLP preferred units can be entitled to a wide range of voting and other rights, depending on the structure of each separate security.

MLP General Partner or Managing Member Interests. The general partner or managing member interest in MLPs is typically retained by the original sponsors of an MLP, such as its founders, corporate partners and entities that sell assets to the MLP. The holder of the general partner or managing member interest can be liable in certain circumstances for amounts greater than the amount of the holder's investment in the general partner or managing member. General partner or managing member interests often confer direct board participation rights in, and in many cases control over the operations of, the MLP. General partner or managing member interests can be privately held or owned by publicly traded entities. General partner or managing member interests receive cash distributions, typically in an amount of up to 2% of available cash, which is contractually defined in the partnership or limited liability company agreement. In addition, holders of general partner or managing member interests typically receive incentive distribution rights ("IDRs''), which provide them with an increasing share of the entity's aggregate cash distributions upon the payment of per common unit distributions that exceed specified threshold levels above the MQD. Due to the IDRs, general partners of MLPs have higher distribution growth prospects than their underlying MLPs, but quarterly incentive distribution payments would also decline at a greater rate than the decline rate in quarterly distributions to common and subordinated unit holders in the event of a reduction in the MLP's quarterly distribution. The ability of the limited partners or members to remove the general partner or managing member without cause is typically very limited. In addition, some MLPs permit the holder of IDRs to reset, under specified circumstances, the incentive distribution levels and receive compensation in exchange for the distribution rights given up in the reset.

MLP Debt Securities. Debt securities issued by MLPs may include those rated below investment grade or that are unrated but judged to be below investment grade by SteelPath at the time of purchase. A debt security of an MLP will be considered to be investment grade if it is rated as such by one of the rating organizations or, if unrated, are judged to be investment grade by the Advisor at the time of purchase. Investments in such securities may not offer the tax characteristics of equity securities of MLPs.

MLP Affiliates. Certain of the Underlying Funds may invest in the equity and debt securities issued by affiliates of MLPs, including the general partners or managing members of MLPs and companies that own MLP general partner interests and are energy infrastructure companies. Such issuers may be organized and/or taxed as corporations and therefore may not offer the advantageous tax characteristics of MLP units. The Underlying Funds may purchase such other MLP equity securities through market transactions, but may also do so through direct placements.

I-Shares. I-Shares represent an indirect ownership interest in an MLP and are issued by an MLP affiliate. The MLP affiliate uses the proceeds from the sale of I-Shares to purchase limited partnership interests in the MLP in the form of I-units. Thus, I-Shares represent an indirect interest in an MLP limited partnership interest. I-units have similar features as MLP common units in terms of voting rights, liquidation preference and distribution. I-Shares themselves have limited voting rights and are similar in that respect to MLP common units. I-Shares differ from MLP common units primarily in that instead of receiving cash distributions, holders of I-Shares will receive distributions of additional I-Shares in an amount equal to the cash distributions received by common unit holders. I-Shares are traded on the NYSE. Issuers of MLP I-Shares are treated as corporations and not partnerships for tax purposes. MLP affiliates also include publicly traded limited liability companies that own, directly or indirectly, general partner interests of MLPs.

Greenfield Projects. Greenfield projects are energy-related projects built by private joint ventures formed by energy infrastructure companies. Greenfield projects may include the creation of a new pipeline, processing plant or storage facility or other energy infrastructure asset that is integrated with the company's existing assets. Greenfield projects involve less investment risk than typical private equity financing arrangements. The primary risk involved with greenfield projects is execution risk or construction risk. Changing project requirements, elevated costs for labor and materials, and unexpected construction hurdles all can increase construction costs. Financing risk exists should changes in construction costs or financial markets occur. Regulatory risk exists should changes in regulation occur during construction or the necessary permits are not secured prior to beginning construction.

Exchange-Traded Notes. Exchange-traded notes ("ETNs'') are senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities whose returns are linked to the performance of a particular market benchmark or strategy minus applicable fees. ETNs are traded on an exchange (e.g., the NYSE) during normal trading hours. However, investors can also hold the ETN until maturity. At maturity, the issuer pays to the investor a cash amount equal to the principal amount, subject to the day's market benchmark or strategy factor.

ETNs do not make periodic coupon payments or provide principal protection. ETNs are subject to credit risk, and the value of the ETN may drop due to a downgrade in the issuer's credit rating, despite the underlying market benchmark or strategy remaining unchanged. The value of an ETN may also be influenced by time to maturity, level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack of liquidity in underlying assets, changes in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer's credit rating and economic, legal, political or geographic events that affect the referenced underlying asset. When an Underlying Fund invests in ETNs, it will bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses borne by the ETN. These fees and expenses generally reduce the return realized at maturity or upon redemption from an investment in an ETN; therefore, the value of the index underlying the ETN must increase significantly in order for an investor in an ETN to receive at least the principal amount of the investment at maturity or upon redemption. An Underlying Fund's decision to sell ETN holdings may be limited by the availability of a secondary market.

Investments in Other Investment Companies. Some of the Underlying Funds can also invest in the securities of other investment companies, which can include open-end funds, closed-end funds and unit investment trusts, subject to the limits set forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act") that apply to those types of investments. For example, an Underlying Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds, which are typically open-end funds or unit investment trusts, listed on a stock exchange, as a way of gaining exposure to the segments of the equity or fixed-income markets represented by the exchange-traded fund's portfolio, at times when the Underlying Fund may not be able to buy those portfolio securities directly. As a non-fundamental policy, none of the Underlying Funds can invest in the securities of other registered open-end 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.

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 Underlying Funds do not intend to invest in other investment companies unless the Manager believes that the potential benefits of the investment justify the payment of any premiums or sales charges. As a shareholder of an investment company, an Underlying Fund would be subject to its ratable share of that investment company's expenses, including its advisory and administration expenses. For specific limitations on the Underlying Fund's investments in securities of other investment companies, refer to the SAI for each Underlying Fund. None of the Underlying Funds anticipate investing a substantial amount of their net assets in shares of other investment companies.

Fixed-Income Securities

Some of the Underlying Funds invest mainly in fixed-income (debt) securities to seek their investment objectives. Other Underlying Funds may invest in debt securities for defensive purposes and/or for liquidity. Fixed-income securities may have different credit and maturity characteristics and fixed or floating interest rates. Different Underlying Funds may focus on investment-grade or non-investment-grade securities or emphasize debt securities with shorter- or longer-term maturities. In general, fixed-income securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk and some are subject to prepayment risk and extension risk. Certain types of debt securities in which the Underlying Funds may invest, and the risks of some of those securities, are described below. For specific limitations on an Underlying Fund's investments in debt securities, please refer to the Prospectus and SAI for that fund.

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

Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of a debt security resulting from the relationship between price and yield. An increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already-issued debt securities and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. Debt securities with longer maturities are usually subject to greater fluctuations in value from interest rate changes than obligations having shorter maturities. Variable rate debt securities pay interest based on an interest rate benchmark. When the benchmark rate changes, the interest payments on those securities may be reset at a higher or lower rate. Except for investments in variable rate debt securities, fluctuations in general interest rates do not affect the amount of interest income received. Fluctuations in the market valuations of debt securities may, however, affect the value of Underlying Fund assets.

Prepayment Risk. Certain fixed-income securities (in particular mortgage-related securities) are subject to the risk of unanticipated prepayment. That is the risk that when interest rates fall, the issuer will repay the security prior to the security's expected maturity, or with respect to certain fixed-income securities, that borrowers will prepay the loans that underlie these securities more quickly than expected, thereby causing the issuer of the security to repay the principal prior to the security's expected maturity. The Underlying Fund may need to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate, reducing its income. Securities subject to prepayment risk generally offer less potential for gains when prevailing interest rates fall. If the Underlying Fund buys those securities at a premium, accelerated prepayments on those securities could cause it to lose a portion of its principal investment represented by the premium. The impact of prepayments on the price of a security may be difficult to predict and may increase the security's price volatility. Interest-only and principal-only securities are especially sensitive to interest rate changes, which can affect not only their prices but can also change the income flows and prepayment assumptions about those investments.

Extension Risk. If interest rates rise rapidly, repayments of principal on certain debt securities may occur at a slower rate than expected and the expected maturity of those securities could lengthen as a result. Those securities generally have a greater potential for loss when prevailing interest rates rise, which could cause their value to fall sharply.

Event Risk. If an issuer of debt securities is the subject of a buyout, debt restructuring, merger or recapitalization that increases its debt load, it could interfere with its ability to make timely payments of interest and principal and cause the value of its debt securities to fall.

Investment Ratings. Investment-grade bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., ("Moody's") or at least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") or Fitch, Inc. or that have comparable ratings by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization ("NRSRO"). Higher-yielding lower-grade debt securities are commonly referred to as "junk bonds." While securities rated "Baa" by Moody's or "BBB" by S&P or Fitch, Inc. are investment-grade and are not regarded as junk bonds, those securities may also be subject to special risks and have some speculative characteristics.

The Manager may also use its own research to evaluate a rated security's credit-worthiness and may judge unrated securities to be of comparable quality to bonds rated as investment-grade or below investment-grade by an NRSRO.

Definitions of the debt security ratings categories of Moody's, S&P and Fitch are included in Appendix B to this SAI.

Lower-Grade Debt Securities. Lower-grade debt securities tend to offer higher yields than investment-grade securities, and may provide greater income or, in some cases, capital appreciation possibilities. Lower-grade debt securities are normally subject to greater risks than investment-grade securities.

Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities . Lower-grade securities are subject to special credit risks including that:

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; and

an economic downturn or an increase in interest rates could severely disrupt the market for high yield bonds, adversely affecting the values of outstanding bonds as well as the ability of issuers to pay interest or repay principal.

To the extent they can be converted into stock, lower-grade convertible securities may be less subject to some risks of lower-grade non-convertible debt securities.

Floating Rate and Variable Rate Obligations. Some debt securities have variable or floating interest rates. The interest rates on floating rate obligations change based on changes to a stated prevailing base market interest rate, such as a bank's prime rate, the 91-day U.S. Treasury Bill rate, the rate of return on commercial paper or bank certificates of deposit, LIBOR or some other standard. The interest rate on a floating rate obligation is adjusted automatically at specified times to give effect to changes in the base rate. The interest rate on a variable rate obligation is adjusted at stated periodic intervals to reflect current market interest rates. Generally, the changes in the interest rate on floating and variable rate obligations reduce the fluctuation in their market value, so the potential for capital appreciation or depreciation is less than that for comparable fixed-rate obligations.

Floating rate and variable rate obligations may have features that permit the holder to recover the principal amount of the security at specified intervals, generally not exceeding one year, upon notice to the issuer. Variable rate obligations may have a demand feature that allows the holder to tender the obligation to the issuer or a third party at certain times, generally for par value plus accrued interest, according to the terms of the obligations. The issuer of a demand obligation normally has a corresponding right in its discretion, after a given period, to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the security plus accrued interest. The issuer usually must provide a specified number of days' notice to the holder. Variable rate demand obligations may include master demand notes, which are obligations that permit the fund to invest fluctuating amounts in them.

The credit quality of a floating rate or variable rate obligation may be enhanced by being backed by a letter of credit or guarantee issued by a financial institution, corporation, the U.S. government or other entity.

Zero-Coupon Bonds and Stripped Securities. Zero-coupon securities do not make periodic interest payments and are sold at a deep discount from their face value at maturity. "Stripped" securities are debt securities whose interest coupons have been separated from the security and are sold separately. With respect to zero-coupon bonds and the "principal-only" components of stripped securities, 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. The discount typically decreases as the maturity date approaches.

An Underlying Fund's investment in zero-coupon or stripped securities may cause it 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.

Bank Obligations. Bank obligations include time deposits, certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances and other bank obligations that are fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The FDIC currently insures the deposits of member banks up to $250,000 per account. Bank obligations also include obligations issued or guaranteed by a domestic bank (including a foreign branch of a domestic bank) having total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion, or obligations of a foreign bank with total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion. Those banks may include commercial banks, savings banks, and savings and loan associations that may or may not be members of the FDIC.

Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits in a bank for a specified period of time at a stated interest rate. Time deposits may be subject to withdrawal notices and penalties.

Bankers' acceptances are marketable short-term credit instruments used to finance the import, export, transfer or storage of goods. They are deemed "accepted" when a bank guarantees their payment at maturity.

Bank obligations may have a limited market and may be deemed "illiquid" unless the obligation, including principal amount plus accrued interest, is payable within seven days after demand. Time deposits that are subject to withdrawal notices and penalties, other than those maturing in seven days or less, are also considered illiquid investments.

Participation Interests in Loans. A participation interest is an undivided interest in a loan made by the issuing financial institution in the proportion that the buyer's participation interest bears to the total principal amount of the loan. The issuing financial institution may have no obligation to the purchasers other than to pay them the proportionate amount of the principal and interest payments they receive.

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 income may be reduced and the value of that participation interest might also decline. If the issuing financial institution fails to perform its obligations under the participation agreement, purchasers might incur costs and delays in realizing payment and suffer a loss of principal and/or interest. Participation interests are generally illiquid and are subject to restrictions on illiquid securities.

For specific limitations on the Underlying Funds' investments in participation interests, refer to the SAI for each Underlying Fund.

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

These notes are direct lending arrangements between the lender and borrower and there is no secondary market for them. The principal plus accrued interest is redeemable at any time, however. This right to redeem the notes depends on the ability of the borrower to make the specified payments on demand. The Manager will consider the earning power, cash flow and other liquidity ratios of an issuer, and its ability to pay principal and interest on demand, including a situation in which all holders of such notes made demand simultaneously. Investments in master demand notes are subject to the limitation on investments in illiquid securities.

Asset-Backed Securities. Asset-backed securities are fractional interests in pools of loans, receivables or other assets, typically accounts receivable or consumer loans. They are issued by trusts or special-purpose vehicles and are backed by the loans, receivables or other assets that make up the pool. The income from the pool is passed through to the investor in the asset-backed security. These securities are subject to the risk of default by the issuer as well as by the borrowers of the underlying loans in the pool and may also be subject to prepayment and extension risks. 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 interest or repayments of principal are not made, a holder 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 assets 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 the underlying loans by the individual borrowers. A purchaser of an asset-backed security would generally have no recourse to the entity that originated the loans in the event of default by a borrower. The underlying loans may be 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-related securities.

Commercial Paper. Commercial paper is short-term, unsecured, promissory notes of domestic or foreign companies that is rated in the three top rating categories of a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

Money Market Instruments. Money market securities are high-quality, short-term debt instruments that are issued by the U.S. government, corporations, banks or other entities. They may have fixed, variable or floating interest rates. The investments of a fund that is classified as a "money market fund" must comply with the credit rating and other provisions of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. To qualify as an "Eligible Security" under the Rule 2a-7 credit rating requirements, a security must: (a) have received a rating in one of the two highest short-term rating categories by any two "nationally recognized statistical rating organizations" as defined in Rule 2a-7 ("NRSRO"), or, if only one NRSRO has rated that security, have received a rating in one of the two highest short-term rating categories by that NRSRO; or (b) be guaranteed, and either that guarantee or the party providing that guarantee meets the requirements in (a); or (c) be an unrated security that is either issued by an issuer having another similar security that meets the above requirements, or is judged by the Manager to be of comparable quality to investments that meet those requirements.

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

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

As with other debt securities, the prices of mortgage-related securities tend to move inversely to changes in interest rates. Some mortgage-related securities have interest rates that move in the opposite direction from changes in general interest rates, based on changes in a specific interest rate index. The changes in those interest rates may also occur at a multiple of the changes in the index. Although the value of a mortgage-related security may decline when interest rates rise, the opposite is not always the case. In addition, the values of mortgage-related debt securities may be affected by changes in the market's perception of the creditworthiness of the entity issuing the securities or guaranteeing them and by changes in government regulations and tax policies.

Mortgage Prepayment and Extension Risks. In periods of declining interest rates, mortgages are more likely to be prepaid and a mortgage-related security's maturity may be shortened by unscheduled prepayments on the underlying mortgages. If principal is returned earlier than expected, that money may have to be reinvested in other investments having a lower yield than the prepaid security. Because of these risks, mortgage-related securities may be less effective as a means of "locking in" attractive long-term interest rates and they may have less potential for appreciation during periods of declining interest rates than conventional bonds.

Prepayment risks can lead to substantial fluctuations in the value of a mortgage-related security. If a mortgage-related security has been purchased at a premium, all or part of the premium may be lost if there is a decline in the market value of the security as a result of interest rate changes or prepayments on the underlying mortgages. In the case of stripped mortgage-related securities, if they experience greater rates of prepayment than were anticipated, an Underlying Fund may fail to recover its initial investment on the security.

During periods of rapidly rising interest rates, prepayments of mortgage-related securities may occur at slower than expected rates. Slower prepayments may effectively lengthen a mortgage-related security's expected maturity. Generally, that would cause the value of the security to fluctuate more widely in response to changes in interest rates. If the prepayments on mortgage-related securities were to decrease broadly, an Underlying Fund's effective duration and therefore its sensitivity to interest rates, would increase.

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

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

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

unsecuritized conventional mortgages,

other mortgage-related securities, or

any combination of these.

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

Stripped Mortgage-Related Securities. Mortgage-related pass-through certificates or CMOs may be partially stripped so that each class receives some interest and some principal or 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." The yields to maturity of mortgage-related 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 purchasers might not fully recoup their 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.

Forward Rolls. In a "forward roll" transaction (also referred to as a "mortgage dollar roll"), an investor sells a mortgage-related security to a buyer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (the same type of security, 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 in excess of the yield on the securities that have been sold.

During the period between the sale and the repurchase, the seller is not entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities that have been sold. It is also possible that the market value of the securities may decline below the repurchase price of the securities or that the counterparty might default in its obligations.

Underlying Funds may only enter into "covered" forward rolls. Throughout the time period of a transaction, an Underlying Fund will identify liquid assets on its books in an amount equal to its payment obligation.

Privately-Issued Commercial Mortgage-Related Securities. Commercial mortgage-related securities issued by private entities are generally multi-class debt or pass-through certificates secured by mortgage loans on commercial properties. They are subject to the credit risks of the issuer and of the underlying loans. These securities typically are structured to provide protection to investors in senior classes 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.

Inflation-Indexed Debt Securities. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to an identified rate of inflation. For example, the U.S. Treasury uses the Consumer Price Index as the inflation measure for Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities. If the index measuring inflation falls, the principal value of the inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to smaller principal amounts) will be reduced. If the index measuring inflation rises, both the principal value and the interest payable (calculated with respect to a larger principal amounts) will increase. With respect to certain inflation-indexed bonds, instead of adjusting the bond's principal value, the inflation adjustment is reflected in the coupon payment. Because of this inflation adjustment feature, inflation-protected bonds typically have lower yields than conventional fixed-rate bonds with similar maturities.

Special Risks of Inflation-Indexed Debt Securities. If inflation declines, the principal amount or the interest rate of an inflation-indexed bond will be adjusted downward. This will result in reduced income and may result in a decline in the bond's price which could cause losses for the fund. Interest payments on inflation-protected debt securities can be unpredictable and will vary as the principal or interest rate is adjusted for inflation. Inflation-indexed bonds normally will decline in price when real interest rates rise which could cause losses for the fund. (A real interest rate is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate from a nominal interest rate).

U.S. Government Securities. Securities issued by the U.S. Treasury are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and are subject to relatively little credit risk. Obligations of U.S. government agencies or instrumentalities (including mortgage-backed securities) may be guaranteed or supported by the "full faith and credit" of the United States or may be backed by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the discretionary authority of the U.S. government to purchase the agencies' or instrumentalities' obligations. Others are supported only by the credit of the agency or instrumentality. "Full faith and credit" means 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 or instrumentality issuing the obligation for repayment.

U.S. Treasury Obligations. These securities are directly issued by the U.S. Treasury. They include Treasury bills (which have maturities of one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (which have maturities of more than one year and up to ten years when issued), Treasury bonds (which have maturities of more than ten years when issued), and Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities. Other U.S. Treasury obligations include U.S. Treasury securities that have been "stripped" by a Federal Reserve Bank and zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities. Treasury securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States as to timely payments of interest and repayments of principal. While U.S. Treasury securities have relatively little credit risk, they are subject to price fluctuations from changes in interest rates.

Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities ("TIPS"). TIPS are designed to provide an investment vehicle that is not vulnerable to inflation. The interest rate paid by TIPS is fixed. The principal value rises or falls semi-annually based on changes in the published Consumer Price Index. If inflation occurs, the principal and interest payments on TIPS are adjusted to protect investors from inflationary loss. If deflation occurs, the principal and interest payments will be adjusted downward, although the principal will not fall below its face amount at maturity.

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. 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 and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation obligations.

Mortgage-Related U.S. Government Securities. A variety of mortgage-related securities are issued by U.S. government agencies or instrumentalities. Like other mortgage-related securities, they may be issued in different series with different interest rates and maturities. The collateral for these securities may be either in the form of mortgage pass-through certificates issued or guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or instrumentality or mortgage loans insured by a U.S. government agency.

Some mortgage-related securities issued by U.S. government agencies, such as Government National Mortgage Association pass-through mortgage obligations ("Ginnie Maes"), are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Others are supported by the right of the agency to borrow from the U.S. Treasury under certain circumstances (for example, "Fannie Mae" bonds issued by Federal National Mortgage Association and "Freddie Mac" obligations issued by Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation). Others are supported only by the credit of the entity that issued them (for example obligations issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks).

In September 2008, the Federal Housing Finance Agency placed the Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation into conservatorship. The U.S. Department of the Treasury also entered into a secured lending credit facility with those companies and a preferred stock purchase agreement. Under the preferred stock purchase agreement, the U.S. Treasury will ensure that each company maintains a positive net worth.

Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae") Certificates. Ginnie Mae is a wholly-owned corporate instrumentality of the United States within the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Ginnie Mae's principal programs involve its guarantees of privately-issued securities backed by pools of mortgages. Ginnie Maes are debt securities representing an interest in one or a pool of mortgages that are insured by the Federal Housing Administration (the "FHA") or the Farmers Home Administration (the "FMHA") or guaranteed by the Veterans Administration (the "VA").

Ginnie Mae obligations are of the "fully modified pass-through" type. They provide that the registered holders of the Ginnie Mae certificates will receive timely monthly payments of the pro-rata share of the scheduled principal payments on the underlying mortgages, whether or not those amounts are collected by the issuers. Amounts paid include, on a pro rata basis, any prepayment of principal of such mortgages and interest (net of servicing and other charges) on the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Ginnie Maes, whether or not the interest on the underlying mortgages has been collected by the issuers.

Ginnie Maes are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest. In giving that guaranty, Ginnie Mae expects that payments received by the issuers on account of the mortgages backing the Ginnie Mae certificates will be sufficient to make the required payments of principal and interest. However, if those payments are insufficient, the guaranty agreements between the issuers of the certificates and Ginnie Mae require the issuers to make advances sufficient for the payments. If the issuers fail to make those payments, Ginnie Mae will do so.

Under federal law, the full faith and credit of the United States is pledged to the payment of all amounts that may be required to be paid under any guaranty issued by Ginnie Mae as to such mortgage pools. An opinion of an Assistant Attorney General of the United States, dated December 9, 1969, states that such guaranties "constitute general obligations of the United States backed by its full faith and credit." Ginnie Mae is empowered to borrow from the United States Treasury to the extent necessary to make any payments of principal and interest required under those guaranties.

Ginnie Mae certificates are backed by the aggregate indebtedness secured by the underlying FHA-insured, FMHA-insured or VA-guaranteed mortgages. Except to the extent of payments received by the issuers on account of such mortgages, Ginnie Mae certificates do not constitute a liability of those issuers, nor do they evidence any recourse against those issuers. Recourse is solely against Ginnie Mae. Holders of Ginnie Mae certificates have no security interest in or lien on the underlying mortgages.

Monthly payments of principal will be made, and additional prepayments of principal may be made, with respect to the mortgages underlying the Ginnie Maes. All of the mortgages in the pools relating to Ginnie Mae are subject to prepayment without any significant premium or penalty, at the option of the mortgagors. While the mortgages on one-to-four-family dwellings underlying certain Ginnie Mae certificates have a stated maturity of up to thirty (30) years, it has been the experience of the mortgage industry that the average life of comparable mortgages, as a result of prepayments, refinancing and payments from foreclosures, is considerably less.

Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae") Certificates. Fannie Mae, a federally-chartered and privately-owned corporation, issues Fannie Mae Certificates which are backed by a pool of mortgage loans. Fannie Mae guarantees to each registered holder of a Fannie Mae certificate that the holder will receive amounts representing the holder's proportionate interest in scheduled principal and interest payments, and any principal prepayments, on the mortgage loans in the pool represented by such certificate, less servicing and guarantee fees, and the holder's proportionate interest in the full principal amount of any foreclosed or other liquidated mortgage loan. In each case the guarantee applies whether or not those amounts are actually received. The obligations of Fannie Mae under its guarantees are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States but are supported by the Federal Housing Finance Agency and the commitment of the U.S. Treasury.

Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") Certificates. Freddie Mac, a corporate instrumentality of the United States, issues Freddie Mac certificates representing interests in mortgage loans. Freddie Mac guarantees to each registered holder of a Freddie Mac certificate timely payment of the amounts representing a holder's proportionate share in:

interest payments less servicing and guarantee fees,

principal prepayments, and

the ultimate collection of amounts representing the holder's proportionate interest in principal payments on the mortgage loans in the pool represented by the Freddie Mac certificate, in each case whether or not such amounts are actually received.

The obligations of Freddie Mac under its guarantees are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States but are supported by the Federal Housing Finance Agency and the commitment of the U.S. Treasury.

Foreign Securities. Foreign securities include equity and debt securities of issuers organized under the laws of countries other than the United States and debt securities issued or guaranteed by foreign governmental or by supra-national entities. They may 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. Securities denominated in foreign currencies issued by U.S. companies may also be considered to be "foreign securities." 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 may not be considered "foreign securities" because they are not subject to many of the special considerations and risks that apply to foreign securities held and traded abroad. Foreign securities may be traded on foreign securities exchanges or in foreign over-the-counter markets.

For specific information on the types of securities that an Underlying Fund considers "foreign securities," and any limitations on the total amount of an Underlying Fund's assets that can be invested in foreign securities, please refer to the Underlying Fund's Prospectus and SAI.

Investing in foreign securities offers potential benefits that are not available from investing only in the securities of U.S. issuers. Those benefits include the opportunity to invest in a wider range of issuers, in countries with economic policies or business cycles that differ from those in the U.S. and in markets that often do not move parallel to U.S. markets. Because of these features, foreign investments may reduce portfolio volatility.

The percentage of assets allocated to foreign securities may vary over time depending on a number of factors including the relative yields of foreign and U.S. securities, the economies of foreign countries, the condition of foreign financial markets, the interest rate climate in particular foreign countries, and the relationship of foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar. The Sub-Adviser may analyze fundamental economic criteria, for example: relative inflation levels and trends, growth rate forecasts, balance of payments status, interest rates, market conditions, currency values, trade barriers, social and political factors, and economic policies.

Foreign Debt Securities. Foreign debt securities include securities issued by foreign governments and companies as well as by "supra-national" entities or their agencies or instrumentalities. Investment in the debt securities of a foreign government or its agencies and instrumentalities ("foreign sovereign debt") may involve a high degree of risk. Foreign sovereign debt obligations may or may not be supported by the full faith and credit of the foreign government. Because of political or economic constraints, the government entity that issued the debt security may not be willing or able to pay interest or repay principle when due. In such a situation, it may request rescheduling the debt or extending further loans to the entity. If a foreign government entity defaults on a debt obligation, there may be few or no legal remedies available for collecting the amounts due.

Debt securities issued by certain "supra-national" entities 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. A supra-national entity's lending activities may be limited to a percentage of its total capital, reserves and net income. The governmental members of those supra-national 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. There can be no assurance that the constituent governments will continue to be able or willing to honor their capitalization commitments.

Risks of Foreign Investing. Investments in foreign securities present special risks and considerations not usually associated with investments in U.S. securities. Those may include:

a lack of public information about foreign issuers;

lower trading volume and less liquidity in foreign securities markets than in U.S. markets;

greater price volatility in foreign markets than in U.S. markets;

less government regulation of foreign issuers, exchanges and brokers than in the U.S.;

a lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards in foreign countries compared to those applicable to U.S. issuers;

fluctuations in the value of foreign investments due to changes in currency rates;

the expense of currency exchange transactions;

greater difficulties in pricing securities in foreign markets;

foreign government restrictions on investments by U.S. and other non-local entities;

higher brokerage commission rates than in the U.S.;

increased risks of delays in clearance and settlement of portfolio transactions;

unfavorable differences between the U.S. economy and some foreign economies;

greater difficulty in commencing and pursuing lawsuits or other legal remedies;

less regulation of foreign banks and securities depositories;

increased risks of loss of certificates for portfolio securities;

government restrictions on the repatriation of profits or capital or other currency control regulations;

the possibility in some countries of expropriation, confiscatory taxation, political, financial or social instability or adverse diplomatic developments; and

the reduction of income by foreign taxes.

Foreign securities are often denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which means that changes in the currency exchange rate will affect the value of those securities. Generally, when the U.S. dollar increases in value against a foreign currency, a security denominated in that currency is worth less in U.S. dollars and when the U.S. dollar decreases in value against a foreign currency, a security denominated in that currency is worth more in U.S. dollars.

In the past, government policies have discouraged investments in certain foreign countries through economic sanctions, trade restrictions, taxation or other government actions. It is possible that such policies could be implemented in the future.

Passive Foreign Investment Companies. Under U.S. tax laws, passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs") are those foreign corporations which generate primarily "passive" income. Passive income is defined as any income that is considered foreign personal holding company income under the Internal Revenue Code. For federal tax purposes, a foreign corporation is deemed to be a PFIC if 75% or more of its gross income during a fiscal year is passive income or if 50% or more of its assets are assets that produce, or are held to produce, passive income.

Foreign mutual funds are generally deemed to be PFICs, since nearly all of the income of a mutual fund is passive income. Foreign mutual funds investments may be used to gain exposure to the securities of companies in countries that limit or prohibit direct foreign investment; however investments in foreign mutual funds by the Fund are subject to limits under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Other types of foreign corporations may also be considered PFICs if their percentage of passive income or passive assets exceeds the limits described above. Federal tax laws impose severe tax penalties for failure to properly report investment income from PFICs. Although every effort is made to ensure compliance with federal tax reporting requirements for these investments, foreign corporations that are PFICs for federal tax purposes may not always be recognized as such.

Additional risks of investing in other investment companies are described under "Investments in Other Investment Companies."

Special Risks of Developing and Emerging Markets. Emerging and developing markets may offer special opportunities for investing but also have greater risks than more mature foreign markets. Emerging and developing market countries may be subject to greater political, social and economic instability; have high inflation rates; experience unfavorable diplomatic developments; have less liquid securities markets with greater price volatility; have additional delays in the settlement of securities transactions; impose exchange controls; impose differential taxes on foreign investors; have a higher possibility of confiscatory taxes or the expropriation of assets; impose restrictions on direct investments or investments in issuers in particular industries; and lack developed legal or regulatory systems.

Transaction Settlement. Settlement procedures in developing markets may differ from those of more established securities markets. Settlements may also be delayed by operational problems. Securities issued by developing countries and by issuers located in those countries may be subject to extended settlement periods. Delays in settlement could result in temporary periods during which some assets are uninvested and no return is earned on those assets. The inability to make intended purchases of securities due to settlement problems could cause missed investment opportunities. Losses could also be caused by an inability to dispose of portfolio securities due to settlement problems. As a result there could be subsequent declines in the value of the portfolio security, a decrease in the level of liquidity of the portfolio or, if there is a contract to sell the security, a possible liability to the purchaser.

Price Volatility. Securities prices in developing markets may be significantly more volatile than is the case in more developed nations of the world. In particular, countries with emerging markets may have relatively unstable governments. That presents the risk of nationalization of businesses, restrictions on foreign ownership or prohibitions of repatriation of assets. These countries may have less protection of property rights than more developed countries. The economies of developing countries may be predominantly based on only a few industries and, as such, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions.

Less Developed Securities Markets. Developing market countries may have less well-developed securities markets and exchanges. Consequently they have lower trading volume than the securities markets of more developed countries. These markets may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume. Therefore, prompt liquidation of substantial portfolio holdings may be difficult at times. As a result, these markets may be substantially less liquid than those of more developed countries, and the securities of issuers located in these markets may have limited marketability.

Government Restrictions. In certain developing countries, government approval may be required for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales of securities by foreign investors. Also, a government might impose temporary restrictions on remitting capital abroad if the country's balance of payments deteriorates, or it might do so for other reasons. If government approval were delayed or refused, income or capital gains may not be able to be transmitted to the United States. Additionally, the imposition of restrictions on investments by foreign entities might result in less attractive investment opportunities or require the sale of existing investments.

Privatization Programs. The governments in some developing countries have been engaged in programs to sell all or part of their interests in government-owned or controlled enterprises. Privatization programs may offer opportunities for significant capital appreciation, in the appropriate circumstances. However, in certain developing countries, the ability of foreign entities to participate in privatization programs may be limited by local law. Additionally, the terms on which a foreign entity might be permitted to participate may be less advantageous than those afforded local investors. There can be no assurance that privatization programs will be successful.

Currency Risk. Certain of the Underlying Funds may purchase securities denominated in foreign currencies and in derivative instruments linked to foreign currencies. A change in the value of such foreign currency against the U.S. dollar will result in a change in the U.S. dollar value of securities denominated in or derivatives linked to that foreign currency and a change in the amount of income the Underlying Fund has available for distribution. Because a portion of the Underlying Fund's investment income may be received in foreign currencies, the Underlying Fund will be required to compute its income in U.S. dollars for distribution to shareholders, and therefore the Underlying Fund will absorb the cost of currency fluctuations. After the Underlying Fund has distributed income, subsequent foreign currency losses may result in the Underlying 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.

Short Sales. Certain of the Underlying Funds may make short sales of securities, either as a hedge against the potential decline in value of a security that an the Underlying Fund owns or to realize appreciation when a security that the Underlying Fund does not own declines in value. To effect a short sale, the Underlying Fund will borrow the security that it desires to short from a broker and then sell the security. While the Underlying Fund is borrowing the security, it will generally pay a fee to the lending broker and reimburse the broker for any dividends or other income paid on the security. Additionally, regulations require that the Underlying Fund provide collateral to the lending broker to secure its obligation to return the borrowed security. Making short sales in securities that it does not own exposes the Underlying Fund to risks associated with those securities. If the Underlying Fund makes short sales in securities that increase in value, it will likely underperform similar mutual funds that do not make short sales in securities they do not own. The Underlying Fund will incur a loss as a result of a short sale if the price of the security increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Underlying Fund closes the short position. The Underlying Fund will realize a gain if the security declines in price between those dates and that decline is greater than the costs of borrowing the security and transaction costs. There can be no assurance that the Underlying Fund will be able to close out a short position at any particular time or at an acceptable price. Although the Underlying Fund's gain is limited to the price at which it sold the security short, its potential loss is limited only by the maximum attainable price of the security, less the price at which the security was sold short and may, theoretically, be unlimited.

The Underlying Fund will comply with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to asset coverage of short sales. These guidelines may, in certain instances, require earmarking or segregation by the

Derivatives and Hedging. Derivative instruments may be used for liquidity, for hedging purposes, to seek income or for other investment purposes. Some of the types of derivative instruments and hedging strategies the Underlying Funds may use are:

futures

put and call options

currency options

options on futures

forward contracts

swaps

swaptions

indexed-linked notes

currency-linked notes

"structured" notes

equity-linked debt securities

convertible notes

Derivatives can be used to attempt to hedge against declines in the market value of portfolio securities, to preserve unrealized gains in the value of portfolio securities that have appreciated, or to facilitate selling securities for investment reasons. They can also be used to establish a position in the securities market as a temporary substitute for purchasing particular securities or to seek to benefit from an anticipated rise in their market value. In that case, the securities would normally be purchased and then the derivative position would be terminated. Hedging strategies are intended to reduce losses but they may also cause losses or limit gains if the hedging instrument or strategy does not perform as anticipated.

The Underlying Funds are not obligated to use hedging, even though they may be permitted to do so. The Underlying Funds may use derivatives and hedging to the extent consistent with their respective investment objectives, internal risk management guidelines adopted by the Manager (as they may be amended from time to time), and as otherwise set forth in an Underlying Fund's prospectus or SAI. An Underlying Fund can employ other derivatives or hedging instruments and strategies, including new ones that are developed, if those investments or strategies are consistent with its investment objective and are permissible under applicable regulations governing the Underlying Fund. For any limitations on an Underlying Fund's investments in derivatives, please refer to its Prospectus and SAI.

Futures. Futures contracts may relate to (1) an individual stock ("single stock futures"), (2) a debt security (these are referred to as "interest rate futures"), (3) broadly-based stock indices ("stock index futures"), (4) bond indices (these are referred to as "bond index futures"), (5) other broadly based securities indices (these are referred to as "financial futures"), (6) foreign currencies (these are referred to as "forward contracts"), or (7) commodities (these are referred to as "commodity futures").

Single Stock Futures. A single stock future obligates the seller to deliver (and the purchaser to take) cash or a specified equity security of an issuer to settle the futures transaction. Either party may also enter into an offsetting contract to close out the position. Single stock futures trade on a very limited number of exchanges, and contracts are typically not transferable between the exchanges.

Interest Rate Futures. An interest rate future obligates the seller to deliver 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.

Stock Index Futures. A broadly-based stock index is used as the basis for trading stock index futures. In some cases an index may be based on stocks of issuers in a particular industry or group of industries. The buyer or seller of a stock index future is obligated to pay cash to settle the transaction, based on the fluctuation of the index's value in response to the changes in the relative values of the underlying stocks that are included in the index over the term of the contract. A stock index cannot be purchased or sold directly.

Bond Index Futures. Bond index futures are contracts based on the future value of a basket of fixed-income securities that comprise the index. The seller or buyer of a bond index future is obligated to pay cash to settle the transaction, based on the fluctuation of the index's value in response to the changes in the values of the fixed-income securities that are included in the index over the term of the contract. A bond index cannot be purchased or sold directly.

Financial Futures. Financial futures are based on the value of the basket of securities that comprise an index. These contracts obligate the buyer or seller to pay cash to settle the futures transaction, based on the fluctuation of the index's value in response to the change in the relative values of the underlying securities that are included in the index over the term of the contract. No delivery of the underlying securities is made to settle the futures contract. Either party may also settle the transaction by entering into an offsetting contract.

Commodity Futures. 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 include gold, platinum and silver. Some Underlying Funds can 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.

These futures transactions are effected through a clearinghouse associated with the exchange on which the contracts are traded. No money is paid or received on the purchase or sale of a future. Upon entering into a futures transaction, the purchaser is required to deposit an initial margin payment for the futures commission merchant (the "futures broker"). The initial margin payment will be deposited with the custodian bank in an account, registered in the futures broker's name, that the futures broker can gain access to only under specified conditions. As the future is marked-to-market (that is, its value on the books is changed to reflect changes in its market value), subsequent margin payments, called variation margin, will be paid to or from the futures broker daily.

At any time prior to expiration of the future, the purchaser may elect to close out its position, at which time a final determination of variation margin is made and any cash in the margin account must be paid or released. The purchase then realizes any loss or gain on the futures transaction for tax purposes.

Commodity Futures Contracts. Certain Underlying Fund's can hold substantial positions in commodity futures contracts. The Underlying Fund's investments in commodity futures contracts and related instruments may involve substantial risks. Some of the special characteristics and risks of these investments are described below.

Commodity futures contracts are agreements between two parties. One party agrees to buy an asset from the other party at a later date at a price and quantity agreed-upon when the contract is made. Commodity futures contracts are traded on futures exchanges. These futures exchanges offer a central marketplace in which to transact futures contracts, a clearing corporation to process trades, a standardization of expiration dates and contract sizes, and the availability of a secondary market. Futures markets also specify the terms and conditions of delivery as well as the maximum permissible price movement during a trading session. Additionally, the commodity futures exchanges may have position limit rules that limit the amount of futures contracts that any one party may hold in a particular commodity at any point in time. These position limit rules are designed to prevent any one participant from controlling a significant portion of the market.

In the futures markets, the exchange clearing corporation takes the other side in all transactions, either buying or selling directly to the market participants. The clearinghouse acts as the counterparty to all exchange-traded futures contracts. That is, the Underlying Fund's obligation is to the clearinghouse, and the Underlying Fund will look to the clearinghouse to satisfy the fund's rights under the futures contract.

When purchasing stocks or bonds, the buyer acquires ownership in the security, however buyers of futures contracts are not entitled to ownership of the underlying commodity until and unless they decide to accept delivery at expiration of the contract. In practice, delivery of the underlying commodity to satisfy a futures contract rarely occurs because most futures traders use the liquidity of the central marketplace to sell their futures contract before expiration.

Price Limits. Some (not all exchanges have price change limits) commodity futures exchanges impose on each commodity futures contract traded on that exchange a maximum permissible price movement for each trading session. If the maximum permissible price movement is achieved on any trading day, no more trades may be executed above (or below, if the price has moved downward) that limit. If the Fund wishes to execute a trade outside the daily permissible price movement, it would be prevented from doing so by exchange rules, and would have to wait for another trading session to execute its transaction.

Price Volatility. Despite the daily price limits on various futures exchanges, the price volatility of commodity futures contracts has been historically greater than that for traditional securities such as stocks and bonds. To the extent that an Underlying Fund invests in commodity futures contracts, the assets of the fund, and therefore the prices of fund shares, may be subject to greater volatility.

Marking-to-Market Futures Positions. The futures clearinghouse marks every futures contract to market at the end of each trading day, to ensure that the outstanding futures obligations are limited to the mark-to-market change in price from one day for any given futures contract. This process of marking-to-market is designed to prevent losses from accumulating in any futures account. Therefore, if the Underlying Fund's futures positions have declined in value, the Underlying Fund may be required to post additional margin to cover this decline. Alternatively, if the Underlying Fund's futures positions have increased in value, this increase will be credited to the Underlying Fund's account. Commodity futures contracts, when entered into directly by the Underlying Fund, are taxed on the "marked-to-market" basis applicable to section 1256 contracts, as discussed below under "Hedging - Tax Aspects of Certain Hedging Instruments." For information about the tax treatment of an Underlying Fund's Subsidiary and its investments, please refer to "Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes - U.S. Tax Considerations."

Special Risks of Commodity Futures Contracts.

Storage Costs. The price of the commodity futures contract will reflect the storage costs of purchasing the physical commodity. These storage costs include the time value of money invested in the physical commodity plus the actual costs of storing the commodity less any benefits from ownership of the physical commodity that are not obtained by the holder of a futures contract (this is sometimes referred to as the "convenience yield"). To the extent that these storage costs change for an underlying commodity while the Underlying Fund is long futures contracts on that commodity, the value of the futures contract may change proportionately.

Reinvestment Risk. In the commodity futures markets, if producers of the underlying commodity wish to hedge the price risk of selling the commodity, they will sell futures contracts today to lock in the price of the commodity at delivery tomorrow. In order to induce speculators to take the corresponding long side of the same futures contract, the commodity producer must be willing to sell the futures contract at a price that is below the expected future spot price. Conversely, if the predominate hedgers in the futures market are the purchasers of the underlying commodity who purchase futures contracts to hedge against a rise in prices, then speculators will only take the short side of the futures contract if the futures price is greater than the expected future spot price of the commodity.
The changing nature of the hedgers and speculators in the commodity markets will influence whether futures prices are above or below the expected future spot price. This can have significant implications for the Underlying Fund when it is time to replace an expiring contract with a new contract. If the nature of hedgers and speculators in futures markets has shifted such that commodity purchasers are the predominate hedgers in the market, the Underlying Fund might open the new futures position at a higher price or choose other related commodity investments.

Additional Economic Factors. The values of commodities which underlie commodity futures contracts are subject to additional variables which may be less significant to the values of traditional securities such as stocks and bonds. Variables such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes and tariffs may have a larger impact on commodity prices and commodity-linked instruments, including futures contracts, commodity-linked notes, commodity options and commodity swaps, than on traditional securities. These additional variables may create additional investment risks which subject the Underlying Fund's investments to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities.

Leverage. There is much greater leverage in futures trading than in stocks. As a registered investment company, the Underlying Fund must pay in full for all securities it purchases. In other words, the Underlying Fund is not allowed to purchase securities on margin. However, the Underlying Fund is allowed to purchase futures contracts on margin. The initial margin requirements are typically between 5% and 15% of the notional value of the contract. That means the Underlying Fund is only required to pay up front between 5% to 15% percent of the notional value of the futures contract. Therefore, the Underlying Fund has a higher degree of leverage in its futures contract purchases than in its stock purchases. As a result there may be differences in the volatility of rates of return between securities purchases and futures contract purchases, with the returns from futures contracts being more volatile.

Put and Call Options. Put options (sometimes referred to as "puts") give the holder the right to sell an asset for an agreed-upon price. Call options (sometimes referred to as "calls") give the holder the right to buy an asset at an agreed-upon price.

Options may be exchange-traded or over-the-counter and include securities options, index options, currency options, commodities options, and options on futures.

Selling Covered Call Options. If the Fund or an Underlying Fund sells ("writes") a call option, it must be "covered." That means that while the call option is outstanding, the Fund or an Underlying Fund must either own the security subject to the call, or, for certain types of call options, identify liquid assets on its books that would enable it to fulfill its obligations if the option were exercised.

A call option on a security is an agreement by the seller to sell an underlying security to the call purchaser at a fixed price (the "exercise price") regardless of changes in the market price of that security during a call period. Call options are sold for a cash payment (a premium). The exercise price is usually higher than the price of the security at the time the call is sold. The seller bears the risk that the price of the underlying security may increase during the call period, requiring it to sell the security for less than the market value at the time. That risk may be offset to some extent by the premium the seller receives. If the market value of the security does not rise above the exercise price during the call period, the call generally will not be exercised. In that case the seller realizes a profit from the cash premium it received. Any such profits earned by the Fund or an Underlying Fund are considered short-term capital gains for federal income tax purposes and are taxable as ordinary income when distributed to shareholders.

A call on a securities index is also sold for a cash premium. If the buyer exercises an index call option, the seller is required to pay an amount equal to the difference between the market value of the index and the exercise price, multiplied by a specified factor. If the value of the underlying index does not rise above the call price, it is unlikely that the call will be exercised. In that case the seller would keep the cash premium without being obligated to make any payments to the purchaser of the call.

The Fund's or an Underlying Fund's custodian bank, or a securities depository acting for the custodian bank, may act through the Options Clearing Corporation as the escrow agent for securities that are subject to a call option the Fund or an Underlying Fund has sold. The Options Clearing Corporation will only release those securities when the call option expires or when the Fund or an Underlying Fund enters into a closing transaction. No margin is required for those transactions.

When the Fund or an Underlying Fund sells an over-the-counter ("OTC") call option, it will typically enter into an arrangement with a securities dealer which will establish a formula price at which the Fund or an Underlying 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 amount that the option is "in the money"). When the Fund or an Underlying 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 an OTC call it has written, the Fund or an Underlying Fund can purchase a corresponding call in a "closing purchase transaction." If the Fund or an Underlying 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 or an Underlying Fund will realize a profit or loss, depending upon whether the premium received on the call is more or less than the amount of the option transaction costs and the price of the call the Fund or an Underlying Fund purchases to close out the transaction. The Fund or an Underlying Fund may realize a profit if the call expires unexercised, because the Fund or an Underlying Fund will retain both 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 and are taxable as ordinary income when distributed by the Fund or an Underlying Fund.

A call on a futures contract may be sold without owning the futures contract or securities deliverable under the contract. To do so, at the time the call must be covered by identifying an equivalent dollar amount of liquid assets. If the value of the segregated assets drops below 100% of the current value of the future, additional liquid assets must be identified. Because of this requirement, in no circumstances would an exercise notice as to that future require delivery on a futures contract. It would simply create a short futures position, which is permitted by applicable hedging policies.

Selling Put Options. A put option on a security or a securities index gives the purchaser the right, during the option period, to sell the underlying investment to the seller at the exercise price. When selling (writing) a put option on a security, the option must be covered by the Fund or an Underlying Fund by identifying liquid assets with a value equal to or greater than the exercise price of the put option, to secure the obligation. In this case the Fund or an Underlying Fund forgoes the opportunity to invest, sell or write calls against the identified assets.

The seller of a put is obligated to buy the underlying investment at the exercise price even if the market value of the investment falls below that price. If the price of the underlying investment remains higher than the exercise price, it is unlikely that a put option would be exercised. If a put option is not exercised, the seller would realize a gain of the amount of the premium received less the transaction costs incurred. If the put is exercised, the exercise price will usually exceed the market value of the underlying investment at that time. In that case, the seller could incur a loss. If the underlying investment is resold at that time, the loss would be equal to the exercise price and any transaction costs minus the amount of the premium received and the amount the seller received from the resale of the underlying investment. Settlement of a put on an index is in cash rather than by delivery of the underlying investment. Any profits earned by the Fund or an Underlying Fund from writing put options are considered short-term capital gains for federal income tax purposes, and are taxable as ordinary income when distributed to shareholders.

Purchasing Call Options . A call option may be purchased by the Fund to seek to benefit from an anticipated rise in a particular security or in a securities index. The purchaser pays a premium for a call option. The purchaser then has the right to buy the underlying investment during the call period at a fixed exercise price. The purchaser benefits only if, during the call period, the market price of the underlying investment rises above the exercise price plus the transaction costs and the premium paid for the call or if the call option is resold at a profit. If the purchaser does not exercise the call option or resell it (whether or not at a profit), the option becomes worthless on its expiration date. In that case the purchaser will have lost the amount it paid as a premium and not realized any gain on the transaction.

Settlement of a call on an index is in cash rather than by delivery of the underlying investment. Gain or loss on the transaction would depend on changes to the prices of the securities that make up the index.

Purchasing Put Options. A put on a security or securities index may be purchased by the Fund to attempt to protect against a decline (below the exercise price) in the value of the underlying investment. The purchaser pays a premium for the right to sell the underlying investment at a fixed exercise price during the put period. If the market price of the underlying investment remains above or equal to the exercise price, the put will generally not be exercised or resold and will become worthless on the expiration date. In that case the purchaser will have lost the amount it paid as a premium and not realize any benefit from the right to sell the underlying investment. If the purchaser resells a put prior to its expiration date, it may or may not realize a profit on that sale.

A put may also be purchased on an investment the buyer does not own. That would permit the purchaser to resell the put or to buy the underlying investment and sell it at the exercise price. If the market price of the underlying investment remains above or equal to the exercise price, the put would generally not be exercised and would become worthless on its expiration date.

Settlement of a put on a securities index is in cash rather than by delivery of the underlying investment. Gain or loss on the transaction would depend on the changes to the prices of the securities that make up the index.

Put and Call Options on Futures. A call on a futures contract may be sold by the Fund without owning the futures contract or securities deliverable under the contract. The call is covered by the Fund by identifying an equivalent dollar amount of liquid assets at the time the call is sold. If the value of the segregated assets drops below 100% of the current market value of the future, the Fund will identify additional liquid assets on its books. Therefore, the receipt of an exercise notice by the Fund as to a future would not require the delivery of the futures contract under any circumstances. It would, however, put the Fund in a short futures position, which is permitted under applicable hedging policies.

A put option on a future may be purchased by the Fund to attempt to protect against a decline (below the exercise price) in the value of the underlying investment during the put period. If, because the market price of the underlying investment remains above or equal to the exercise price, the put is not exercised or resold, it becomes worthless on the expiration date. In that case the purchaser will have lost the amount it paid as a premium and not realized any benefit from the right to sell the underlying investment. If the purchaser resells the put prior to its expiration, it may or may not realize a profit on that resale.

A put option may also be purchased by the Fund on a future it does not own. That would permit the Fund to resell the put or to buy the underlying investment and sell it at the exercise price. 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.

Options and Futures on Foreign Currencies. Put and call options and futures contracts on foreign currencies may be used to try to protect against declines in the U.S. dollar value of foreign securities an Underlying Fund owns and against increases in the dollar cost of foreign securities an Underlying Fund anticipates buying. Although an Underlying 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.

Buying and Selling Options on Foreign Currencies. Put and call options on foreign currencies include puts and calls that trade on a securities or commodities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets or that are quoted by major recognized dealers in such options.

If the value of a foreign currency rises against the U.S. dollar, the cost of securities denominated in that currency increases. The increased cost of those securities may be partially offset by purchasing calls or selling puts on the foreign currency. If the value of a foreign currency against the U.S. dollar falls, the dollar value of portfolio securities denominated in that currency would decline. That decline might be partially offset by selling calls or purchasing puts on the foreign currency. If the currency rate fluctuates in an adverse direction from the option position, however, the option premium payments and transaction costs would have been incurred without a corresponding benefit.

A call on a foreign currency could be sold to provide a hedge against a decline in the U.S. dollar value of a security denominated in that currency or in a different currency (known as a "crosshedging" strategy). A call 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 upon conversion or exchange of other foreign currency held in its portfolio. The Fund may also cover the option by maintaining identified cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid, high-grade debt securities in an amount equal to the exercise price of the option.

Currency-Linked Notes. Currency-indexed securities are short- or intermediate-term debt securities whose value at maturity or interest payments are linked to the change in value of the U.S. dollar against the performance of a currency index or one or more foreign currencies. In some cases, these securities pay an amount at maturity based on a multiple of the amount of a currency's change against the dollar. If they are sold prior to their maturity, their price may be higher or lower than their purchase price as a result of market conditions or changes in the credit quality of the issuer.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts. Foreign currency futures contracts are known as "forward contracts." They are used to buy or sell foreign currency for future delivery at a fixed price. They are used to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a security denominated in a foreign currency that an Underlying Fund has bought or sold, or to protect against possible losses from changes in the relative value of the U.S. dollar against a foreign currency. 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. Forward contracts are traded in the inter-bank market conducted directly among currency traders (usually large commercial banks) and their customers.

Investments in Commodity-Linked Notes. A commodity-linked note is a derivative instrument that has characteristics of a debt security and of a commodity-linked derivative. A commodity-linked note typically provides for interest payments and a principal payment at maturity linked to the price movement of the underlying commodity, commodity index or commodity futures or option contract.

Qualifying Hybrid Instruments. An Underlying Fund may invest in commodity-linked notes that are considered to be "qualifying hybrid instruments" excluded from regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations adopted thereunder. See Appendix C to this Statement of Additional Information.

Principal Protection. Commodity-linked notes may be principal protected, partially protected, or offer no principal protection. A principal protected commodity-linked note means that the issuer will pay, at a minimum, the par value of the note at maturity. Therefore, if the commodity value to which the commodity-linked note is linked declines over the life of the note, an Underlying Fund will receive at maturity the face or stated value of the note.

With a principal protected commodity-linked note, an Underlying Fund will receive at maturity the greater of the par value of the note or the value of the underlying commodity or index. This protection is, in effect, an option whose value is subject to the volatility and price level of the underlying commodity. This optionality can be added to the note's structure, but only for a cost higher than that of a partially protected (or no protection) commodity-linked note. The Underlying Fund's decision on whether to use principal protection depends in part on the cost of the protection. In addition, the protection feature depends upon the ability of the issuer to meet its obligation to buy back the security, and therefore depends on the creditworthiness of the issuer.

With full principal protection, an Underlying Fund will receive at maturity of the commodity-linked note either the stated par value of the commodity-linked note, or potentially, an amount greater than the stated par value if the underlying commodity, index, futures or option contract or other underlying economic variable increases in value. Partially protected commodity-linked notes may suffer some loss of principal if the underlying commodity, index, futures or options contract or other economic variable declines in value during the term of the note. However, partially protected commodity-linked notes have a specified limit as to the amount of principal that they may lose.

Commodity-Linked Notes Without Principal Protection. An Underlying Fund may also invest in commodity-linked notes that offer no principal protection. At maturity, there is a risk that the underlying commodity price, futures or option contract, index or other economic variable may have declined sufficiently in value such that some or all of the face value of the commodity-linked note might not be returned. Some of the commodity-linked notes that the fund may invest in may have no principal protection and the note could lose all of its value.

With a partially-protected or no-principal-protection commodity-linked note, an Underlying Fund may receive at maturity an amount less than the note's par value if the commodity, index or other economic variable value to which the note is linked declines over the term of the note. An Underlying Fund's manager or sub-adviser, at its discretion, may invest in a partially protected principal commodity-linked note or a note without principal protection. In deciding to purchase a note without principal protection, the manager or sub-adviser may consider, among other things, the expected performance of the underlying commodity futures or option contract, index or other economic variable over the term of the note, the cost of the note, and any other economic factors which the manager or sub-adviser believes are relevant.

Limitations on Leverage. As discussed in the Underlying Fund's prospectus, some of the commodity-linked notes in which an Underlying Fund invests may involve leverage. To avoid being subject to undue leverage risk, the fund will seek to limit the amount of economic leverage it has under one commodity-linked note in which it invests and the leverage of the fund's overall portfolio. The Underlying Fund will not invest in a commodity-linked note if, at the time of purchase:

the note's "leverage ratio" exceeds 300% of the price increase in the underlying commodity, futures or option contract, index or other economic variable;
the Underlying Fund's "portfolio leverage ratio" exceeds 150%, measured at the time of purchase.

"Leverage ratio" is the expected increase in the value of a commodity-linked note, assuming a one percent price increase in the underlying commodity, commodity index or other economic factor. In other words, for a commodity-linked note with a leverage factor of 150%, a 1% gain in the underlying economic variable would be expected to result in a 1.5% gain in value for the commodity-linked note. "Portfolio leverage ratio" is defined as the average (mean) leverage ratio of all instruments in the Fund's portfolio as measured by their notional values.

The Underlying Fund's use of commodity-linked notes and other commodity-linked derivatives is also subject to regulatory requirements that are intended to reduce the effects of the instruments' economic leverage. Please see "Regulatory Aspects of Use of Derivative Instruments," below.

Counterparty Risk. A significant risk of commodity-linked notes is counterparty risk. The Underlying Fund will take on the counterparty credit risk of the issuer. That is, at maturity of a commodity-linked note, there is a risk that the issuer may be unable to perform its obligations under the terms of the commodity-linked note. Issuers of commodity-linked notes are typically large money center banks, broker-dealers, other financial institutions and large corporations. To minimize this risk an Underlying Fund will transact, to the extent possible, with issuers who have an investment-grade credit rating from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization ("NRSRO").

Forward Contract Strategies. Under a forward contract, an Underlying Fund agrees to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which 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. The costs of engaging in forward contracts varies depending on factors such as the currencies involved, the length of the contract period and the market conditions then prevailing.

A forward contract might be used to provide for the purchase or sale of the amount of foreign currency involved in the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency, or for dividend payments that may be received in a foreign currency. This is called a "transaction hedge." The transaction hedge will protect against a loss from an adverse change in the currency exchange rates during the period between the date on which a security is purchased or sold or on which a payment is declared, and the date on which the payments are made or received. The use of forward contracts does not eliminate the risk of fluctuations in the prices of the underlying securities, but it does fix a rate of exchange in advance.

If it is anticipated that a foreign currency might suffer a substantial decline against the U.S. dollar, forward contracts could be used to lock in the U.S. dollar value of portfolio positions. This is called a "position hedge." To try to protect against a substantial decline of the U.S. dollar against a foreign currency, a forward contract to buy that foreign currency for a fixed dollar amount could be used. Alternatively, an Underlying Fund could enter into a forward contract to sell a different foreign currency an Underlying Fund believes will fall whenever there is a decline in the U.S. dollar value of the currency in which portfolio securities are denominated.

In some cases, at or before the maturity of a forward contract, an Underlying Fund might sell a portfolio security and use the sale proceeds to make delivery of the currency. If the market value of the security is less than the amount of foreign currency an Underlying Fund is obligated to deliver, an Underlying 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 exceeds the amount of foreign currency an Underlying Fund is obligated to deliver, an Underlying Fund might have to sell some of the foreign currency on the spot market. There would be additional transaction costs for the spot market transactions in those cases.

Alternatively the contractual obligation to deliver the currency may be offset by purchasing a second contract to obtain, on the same maturity date, the same amount of the currency as the currency obligation. Similarly, a forward contract purchase obligation may be closed out by entering into a second contract to sell the same amount of the same currency on the maturity date of the first contract. The gain or loss would be realized 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.

Risks of Derivatives and Hedging Instruments. The use of derivatives and hedging instruments requires special skills and knowledge of investment techniques that are different than those required for normal portfolio management. These risks include the following:

Forward Contract Limitations. An Underlying Fund will not enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure to such contracts if the consummation of the contracts would obligate an Underlying Fund to deliver an amount of foreign currency in excess of the value of an Underlying Fund's portfolio securities or other assets denominated in that currency (or another currency that is the subject of the hedge). However, an Underlying Fund can maintain a net exposure to forward contracts in excess of the value of an Underlying Fund's portfolio securities or other assets denominated in foreign currencies if the excess amount is "covered" by liquid securities denominated in any currency. As one alternative, an Underlying Fund could purchase a call option permitting an Underlying 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, an Underlying Fund could purchase a put option permitting an Underlying 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. An Underlying Fund could also cover its short positions by identifying assets on its books equal to the aggregate amount of an Underlying Fund's commitment under forward contracts or the excess amount of those obligations.

Selection Risk. If the Manager uses an option at the wrong time or judges market conditions incorrectly, or if the prices of its options positions are not correlated with its other investments, a hedging strategy may reduce returns or cause losses. If a covered call option is sold on an investment that increases in value, if the call is exercised, no gain will be realized on the increase in the investment's value above the call price. A put option on a security that does not decline in value will cost the amount of the purchase price and without providing any benefit if it cannot be resold.

Forward Contract Risks. The projection of short-term currency market movements is extremely difficult, and the successful execution of a short-term hedging strategy is highly uncertain. 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 a forward contract is entered into and the date it is sold. Forward contracts involve the risk that anticipated currency movements will not be accurately predicted, causing losses on those contracts and additional transaction costs. The use of forward contracts might reduce performance if there are unanticipated changes in currency prices.

Liquidity Risk. Losses might also be realized if a position could not be closed out because of illiquidity in the market for an option. 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.

Forward Contract Costs. Because forward contracts are usually entered into on a principal basis, no brokerage fees or commissions are involved. Foreign exchange dealers do 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 at one rate, while offering a lower rate for purchasing that currency. Because these contracts are not traded on an exchange, the credit and performance risk of the counterparty must also be evaluated.

Leverage Risk. Premiums paid for options are small compared to the market value of the underlying investments. Consequently, options may involve large amounts of leverage, which could result in the Fund's net asset value being more sensitive to changes in the value of the underlying investments.

Swaps. A "swap" is a contract under which one party agrees to exchange an asset (for example, bushels of wheat) for another asset (cash) at a specified date or dates in the future. A one-period swap contract operates in a manner similar to a forward or futures contract because there is an agreement to swap an asset for cash at only one forward date. Swap transactions may also have more than one period and therefore more than one exchange of assets. If the term of a swap is for more than one period, the purchaser may make payments at an adjustable or "floating" rate. With a floating rate fee, the payments are based on a rate such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), and are adjusted each period. If the LIBOR or other reference rate increased over the term of the swap, the fee would increase at each swap reset date.

Swap transactions with certain counterparties may be entered into pursuant to master netting agreements. A master netting agreement provides that all swaps done between the parties shall be regarded as parts of an integral agreement. On any date, the amounts payable to or from each party in respect to one or more swap transactions in the same currency will be combined and the parties will receive or be obligated to pay the net amount. A master netting agreement may also provide that if a party defaults on one swap, the other party can terminate all of the swaps with that counterparty. If there is a default resulting 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 terminated swap (i.e., the mark-to-market value at the time of termination of each swap). The gains and losses on all swaps are 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 are generally referred to as "aggregation."

Correlation Risk. If an Underlying Fund sells futures or purchases puts on broadly-based indices or futures to attempt to protect against declines in the value of its portfolio securities, it may be subject to the risk that the prices of the futures or the applicable index will not correlate with the prices of those portfolio securities. For example, the market or the index might rise but the value of the hedged portfolio securities might decline. In that case, an Underlying Fund would lose money on the hedging instruments and also experience a decline in the value of the portfolio securities. Over time, however, the value of a diversified portfolio of securities will tend to move in the same direction as the indices upon which related hedging instruments are based.

The risk of imperfect correlation increases as the composition of the 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, an Underlying Fund might use a greater dollar amount of hedging instruments than the dollar amount of portfolio securities being hedged, particularly if the historical price volatility of the portfolio securities being hedged is more than the historical volatility of the applicable index.

Interest Rate Swaps. In an interest rate swap, the parties exchange their rights to receive interest payments on a security or other reference rate. For example, they might swap the right to receive floating rate payments for the right to receive for fixed rate payments. Interest rate swaps entail both interest rate risk and credit risk. There is a risk that based on movements of interest rates, the payments made under a swap agreement will be greater than the payments received, as well as the risk that the counterparty will fail to meet its obligations.

Futures Market Risk. The ordinary differences between prices in the cash markets and the futures markets are subject to distortions, due to differences in the nature of those markets.

Participants in the futures market are subject to margin deposit and maintenance requirements that may cause investors to close futures contracts through offsetting transactions, distorting the normal market relationships.

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.

Speculators may consider that 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 price distortions.

Transaction Costs. Option activities might also affect portfolio turnover rates and brokerage commissions. The portfolio turnover rate might increase if an Underlying Fund is required to sell portfolio securities that are subject to call options it has sold or if it exercises put options it has bought. Although the decision to exercise a put it holds is within an Underlying Fund's control, holding a put might create an additional reason to purchase a security. There may also be a brokerage commission on each purchase or sale of a put or call option. Those commissions may be higher on a relative basis than the commissions for direct purchases or sales of the underlying investments. A brokerage commission may also be paid for each purchase or sale of an underlying investment in connection with the exercise of a put or call.

Index Swap Transactions . Certain of the Underlying Funds may enter into a swap on an index, under which involve the exchange by the Underlying Fund with another party of the respective amounts payable with respect to a notional principal amount related to one or more indices.

Total Return Swaps. Total return swap agreements may be used to gain exposure to price changes in an overall market or an asset. In a total return swap, the purchaser will receive the price appreciation of an index, a portion of an index, or a single asset in exchange for paying an agreed-upon fee.

Asset Coverage for Certain Investments and Trading Practices. Typically, a Fund's or Underlying Fund's investments in equity and fixed-income securities do not involve any future financial obligations. However, a Fund or Certain Underlying Funds (each referred to as a "fund" for purposes of this discussion of asset coverage) may make investments or employ trading practices that obligate the fund, on a fixed or contingent basis, to deliver an asset or make a cash payment to another party in the future. The fund will comply with guidance from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and other applicable regulatory bodies with respect to coverage of certain investments and trading practices. This guidance may require earmarking or segregation by the fund of cash or liquid securities with its custodian or a designated sub-custodian to the extent the fund's obligations with respect to these strategies are not otherwise "covered" through ownership of the underlying security or financial instrument or by other portfolio positions, or by other means consistent with applicable regulatory policies. In some cases, SEC guidance permits the fund to cover its obligation by entering into an offsetting transaction.

For example, if a fund enters into a currency forward contract to sell foreign currency on a future date, the fund may cover its obligation to deliver the foreign currency by earmarking or otherwise segregating cash or liquid securities having a value at least equal to the value of the deliverable currency. Alternatively, the fund could cover its obligation by earmarking or otherwise segregating an amount of the foreign currency at least equal to the deliverable amount or by entering into an offsetting transaction to acquire an amount of foreign currency at least equal to the deliverable amount at a price at or below the sale price received by the fund under the currency forward contract.

With respect to certain derivative instruments (e.g., futures contracts) that are not required to "cash settle", the Fund must cover open positions by earmarking or otherwise segregating liquid assets in an amount equal to the market value or full notional amount of the derivative instrument(s). However, for derivative instrument(s) that are required to cash-settle, the Fund is permitted to earmark or otherwise segregate liquid assets in an amount equal to the Fund's daily marked to market (or net) obligation, if any, rather than the market value or full notional amount. By setting aside or "earmarking" assets equal to only its net obligation under cash-settled derivative instruments, the Fund will have the ability to utilize these instruments to a greater extent than if the Fund were required to segregate or "earmark" assets equal to the full market or notional amount value of the instrument.

A fund's approach to asset coverage may vary among different types of swaps. With respect to most swap agreements (but excluding, for example, credit default swaps), the fund calculates the obligations of the parties to the agreement on a "net basis" (i.e., the two payment streams are netted out with the fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments). Consequently the fund 's current obligations (or rights) under these swap agreements will generally be equal only to the net amount to be paid or received under the agreement based on the relative values of the positions held by each party to the agreement (the "net amount"). The fund's current obligation, if any, under a swap agreement will generally be covered by earmarking or otherwise segregating cash or liquid securities having an aggregate net asset value at least equal to the accrued unpaid net amounts owed. To the extent that the obligations of the parties under these swaps are not calculated on a net basis, the amount earmarked or otherwise segregated will be the full amount of the fund's obligations, if any. Alternatively, the fund could cover its obligation by other means consistent with applicable regulatory policies.

With respect to credit default swaps, typically, if a fund enters into a credit default swap as the buyer of credit protection, then it will earmark or otherwise segregate an amount of cash or liquid securities at least equal to any accrued payment or delivery obligations under the swap. Alternatively, if a fund enters into a credit default swap as the seller of credit protection, then the fund will earmark or otherwise segregate an amount of cash or liquid securities at least equal to the full notional amount of the swap. Alternatively, the fund could cover its obligation by other means consistent with applicable regulatory policies.

Earmarking or otherwise segregating a large percentage of a fund's assets could impede the Manager's ability to manage the fund's portfolio.

Credit Default Swaps. Credit default swaps may be acquired, both directly ("unfunded swaps") and indirectly in the form of a swap embedded within a structured note ("funded swaps"), to seek protection against the risk that a security will default. Credit default swaps may be on a single security, or on a basket of securities. The purchaser pays a fee and receives a fixed payment during the life of the swap. A credit default swap may represent a short position (also known as "buying credit protection") or a long position (also known as "selling credit protection").

A short position in a credit default swap might be used to hedge a long portfolio position to seek to decrease exposure to a specific issuer. For corporate issues, a short credit default swap may only be entered into with respect to a currently owned security. However, if the short credit default swap is against sovereign debt, the ownership may be in reference to: (i) the reference obligation, (ii) any sovereign debt of that foreign country, or (iii) sovereign debt of any country that the Manager determines is closely correlated as an inexact bona fide hedge.

If there is a credit event (bankruptcy, failure to timely pay interest or principal, a restructuring or other specified occurrence) with respect to a short position in a credit default swap, an Underlying Fund will deliver the defaulted bonds and the swap counterparty will pay the par amount of the bonds. If the swap is on a basket of securities, the notional amount of the swap is reduced by the par amount of the defaulted bond, and the fixed payments are then made on the reduced notional amount.

Taking a long position in a credit default swap note increases the exposure to the specific issuers. If there is a credit event with respect to a long credit default swap position, the swap counterparty will deliver the bonds and the purchaser will pay the counterparty the par amount. If the swap is on a basket of securities, the notional amount of the swap is reduced by the par amount of the defaulted bond, and the fixed payments are then made on the reduced notional amount.

The risks of credit default swaps include the cost of paying for credit protection if there are no credit events, pricing transparency when assessing the cost of a credit default swap, counterparty risk, and the need to fund any delivery obligation, particularly in the event of adverse pricing when purchasing bonds to satisfy a delivery obligation.

Regulatory Aspects of Derivatives and Hedging Instruments . As a result of recent amendments to rules under the Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA") by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), the Manager must either operate within certain guidelines and restrictions with respect to the Fund's use of futures, options on such futures, commodity options and certain swaps, or be subject to registration with the CFTC as a "commodity pool operator" ("CPO") with respect to the Fund, and, upon the finalization of additional CFTC rules, be required to operate the Fund in compliance with certain disclosure, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements.

Previously, the CFTC permitted unlimited futures transactions and options thereon, so long as a fund had claimed an exclusion from registration as a CPO, and swap contracts were not formerly regulated by the CFTC. Under the amended rules, the investment adviser of a registered investment company may claim an exemption from registration as a CPO only if the registered investment company that it advises uses futures contracts, options on such futures, commodity options and certain swaps solely for "bona fide hedging purposes," or limits its use of such instruments for non-bona fide hedging purposes to certain de minimis amounts.

While the Manager will be registered as a CPO under the CEA, the Manager currently intends to limit the Fund's use of futures, options on such futures, commodity options and certain swaps in order to permit the Fund to continue to claim an exemption under the CFTC rules. As such, with respect to the management of the Fund, the Manager will not be subject to the disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping requirements under the CFTC rules.

Tax Aspects of Certain Derivatives and Hedging Instruments. Futures contracts, non-equity options and certain foreign currency exchange contracts 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 Internal Revenue 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 an Underlying 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 potentially applicable to a Fund 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 mark-to-market treatment.

Certain forward contracts may result in "straddles" for federal income tax purposes. The straddle rules may affect the character and timing of gains (or losses) recognized on those 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. 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:

gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates that occur between the time interest or other receivables are accrued or expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are accrued and the time an Underlying Fund actually collects such receivables or pays such liabilities, and
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 investment income available for distribution to its shareholders.

"Structured" Notes. "Structured" notes are specially-designed derivative debt instruments. The terms of the instrument may be "structured" by the purchaser and the issuer of the note. Payments of principal or interest on these notes may be linked to the value of an index (such as a currency or securities index), one or more securities, or a commodity or to the financial performance of one or more obligors. The value of these notes will normally rise or fall in response to the changes in the performance of the underlying security, index, commodity or obligor.

Structured notes are subject to interest rate risk and are also subject to credit risk with respect both to the issuer and, if applicable, to the underlying security or obligor. If the underlying investment or index does not perform as anticipated, the structured note might pay less interest than the stated coupon payment or repay less principal upon maturity. The price of structured notes may be very volatile and they may have a limited trading market, making it difficult to value them or sell them at an acceptable price. In some cases, either the Fund or an Underlying Fund may enter into agreements with an issuer of structured notes to purchase a minimum amount of these notes over time.

Swaptions. A swaption is a contract that gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap at a preset rate within a specified period of time. In return, the purchaser pays a "premium" to the seller of the contract. The seller of the contract receives the premium and bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the preset rate on the underlying interest rate swap.

The Underlying Funds may also use the following types of investments and investment strategies.

Risks of Swap Transactions. Swaps involve the risk that the value of the asset will not perform as expected. Swaps also involve credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty might default. If the counterparty defaults, the purchaser might lose the amount of any contractual payments that it has not received. The Manager will monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties to swap transactions on an ongoing basis. Although the swap market is well-developed for primary participants, there is only a limited secondary market. Swaps are not traded or listed on an exchange and over-the-counter trading of existing swap contracts is limited. Therefore, if the Underlying Fund wishes to sell its swap contract to a third party, it may not be able to do so at a favorable price.

Regulatory Risks of Swap Transactions. Qualifying swap transactions are excluded from regulation under the Investment Company Act and the regulations thereunder. Additionally, swap contracts have not been determined to be securities under the rules promulgated by the SEC. Consequently, swap contracts are not regulated by either the CFTC or the SEC, and swap participants may not be afforded the protections of the Commodity Exchange Act or the federal securities laws. To reduce this risk, an Underlying Fund will only enter into swap agreements with counterparties who use standard International Swap and Dealers Association, Inc. ("ISDA") contract documentation. ISDA establishes industry standards for the documentation of swap agreements. Virtually all principal swap participants use ISDA documentation because it has an established set of definitions, contract terms and counterparty obligations, including provisions for master netting agreements. See Appendix D to this SAI for more information on qualifying swap transactions.

Investment in Underlying Fund Wholly-Owned Subsidiary. Certain of the Underlying Funds may invest up to 25% of their total assets in a wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary of the Underlying Fund (the "Subsidiary"). The Subsidiary invests primarily in commodity-linked derivatives (including commodity futures, financial futures, options and swap contracts) and exchange-traded funds related to gold or other special minerals ("Gold ETFs"). The Subsidiary may also invest in certain fixed-income securities and other investments that may serve as margin or collateral for its derivatives positions.
Since the Underlying Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in the Subsidiary, which may hold certain of the investments described in the Underlying Fund's prospectus and this SAI, the Underlying Fund may be considered to be investing indirectly in those investments through its Subsidiary. Therefore, references in the Underlying Fund's prospectus and SAI to investments by the Underlying Fund also may be deemed to include the Underlying Fund's indirect investments through the Subsidiary.

"Structured" Investments. "Structured" investments are financial instruments and contractual obligations designed to provide a specific risk-reward profile. A structured instrument is generally a hybrid security (often referred to as "hybrids") that combines characteristics of two or more different financial instruments. The terms of these investments may be contractually "structured" by the purchaser and the issuer (which is typically associated with an investment banking firm) of the instrument. Structured investments may have certain features of equity and debt securities, but may also have additional features. The key characteristics of structured investments are:

They change the risk or return on an underlying investment asset (such as a bond, money market instrument, loan or equity security), or

They may replicate the risk or return of an underlying investment asset.

They typically involve the combination of an investment asset and a derivative.

The derivative is an integral part of the structure, not just a temporary hedging tool.

The returns on these investments may be linked to the value of an index (such as a currency or securities index) or a basket of instruments (a portfolio of assets, such as, high yield bonds, emerging market bonds, equities from a specific industry sector, a broad-based equity index or commodities), an individual stock, bond or other security, an interest rate, or a commodity. Some of the types of structured investments are:

Equity-linked notes

Index-linked notes

Inflation-linked notes

Commodity-linked notes

Credit-linked notes

Currency-linked notes

The values of structured investments will normally rise or fall in response to the changes in the performance of the underlying index, security, interest rate or commodity. Certain structured investments may offer full or partial principal protection, or may pay a variable amount at maturity, or may pay a coupon linked to a specific security or index while leaving the principal at risk. These investments may be used to seek to realize gain or limit exposure to price fluctuations and help control risk.

Depending on the terms of the particular instrument, structured investments may be subject to equity market risk, commodity market risk, currency market risk or interest rate risk. Structured notes are subject to credit risk with respect to the issuer of the instrument and, for structured debt investments, might also be subject to credit risk with respect to the issuer of the underlying investment. For notes that do not include principal protection (a form of insurance), a main risk is the possible loss of principal. There is a legal risk involved with holding complex instruments, where regulatory or tax considerations may change during the term of a note. Some structured investments may create leverage, which involves additional risks.

If the underlying investment or index does not perform as anticipated, the investment might not result in a gain or may cause a loss. The price of structured investments may be very volatile and they may have a limited trading market, making it difficult for an Underlying Fund to value them or sell them at an acceptable price. Usually structured investments are considered illiquid investments for purposes of limits on those investments.

When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions. "When-issued" and "delayed-delivery" are terms that refer to securities whose documentation are available, and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery to a purchaser. When-issued and delayed-delivery securities are purchased at a price that is fixed at the time of the transaction with payment and delivery of the security made at a later date. During the period between purchase and settlement, the buyer makes no payment to the issuer (or seller) of the security and no interest accrues to the buyer from the investment. Purchases on that basis are made when it is anticipated that the price at the time of the transaction is lower than the price will be at the time of delivery.

The securities are subject to change in value from market fluctuations during the period until settlement and the value of the security on the delivery date may be more or less than the purchase price. If the value of the security declines below the purchase price, the transaction may lose money.

The buyer relies on the other party to complete the when-issued or delayed-delivery transactions. The buyer will bear the risk that a security purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may not be issued or may not be delivered as agreed. A failure to do so may cause the loss of an opportunity to obtain the security at an advantageous price or yield.

When-issued and delayed-delivery transactions can be used as a defensive technique to hedge against anticipated changes in interest rates and prices. For instance, if rising interest rates or falling prices are anticipated, a portfolio security may be sold on a delayed-delivery basis to attempt to limit exposure to those occurrences. In periods of falling interest rates and rising prices, a purchase of securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be used to obtain the benefit of currently higher cash yields.

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

At the time of the commitment to purchase or sell a security on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis, an Underlying Fund records the transaction on its books and reflects the value of the security purchased in determining its net asset value. It also identifies liquid assets on its books at least equal to the amount of the purchase commitment until it pays for the investment. In a sale transaction, it records the proceeds to be received.

Equity-Linked Notes. Equity-linked debt securities pay interest at a fixed rate until they mature, which is usually in one to four years. The principal amount that they pay at maturity is not a fixed amount, however. It is calculated based on the performance of a specified equity security. The principal amount is typically adjusted for events such as stock splits, stock dividends and certain other events that affect the linked equity security but is not adjusted for any additional issuance of equity securities of the type to which it is linked. Equity-linked debt securities are subject to equity market risks and their value generally fluctuates with the price of the linked security, although these securities are generally less volatile than the equity securities to which they are linked. Because the amount of principal is based on the value of a different security, equity-linked debt securities are considered to be a type of derivative.

Index-Linked Notes. Index-linked notes are debt securities whose principal and/or interest payments depend on the performance of an underlying index. This type of indexed security offers the potential for increased income or principal payments but involves greater risk of loss than a typical debt security of the same maturity and credit quality.

Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may acquire securities subject to repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements may be acquired for temporary defensive purposes, to maintain liquidity to meet anticipated share redemptions, pending the investment of the proceeds from sales of shares, or pending the settlement of portfolio securities transactions. In a repurchase transaction, the purchaser buys a security from, and simultaneously resells it to, an approved institution 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 institutions include U.S. commercial banks, U.S. branches of foreign banks, or broker-dealers that have been designated as primary dealers in government securities. Institutions must meet credit requirements set by the Manager from time to time.

The majority of repurchase transactions run from day to day and delivery pursuant to the resale typically occurs within one to five days of the purchase. Repurchase agreements that have a maturity beyond seven days are subject to limits on illiquid investments. There is no limit on the amount of assets that may be subject to repurchase agreements having maturities of seven days or less.

Repurchase agreements are considered "loans" under the Investment Company Act and are collateralized by the underlying security. 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 institution fails to pay the repurchase price on the delivery date, there may be costs incurred in disposing of the collateral and losses if there is a delay in the ability to do so. The Manager will monitor the institution's creditworthiness to confirm that it 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 the affiliated entities managed by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint repurchase agreement accounts. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements secured by U.S. government securities. Securities 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.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements. A reverse repurchase agreement is the sale of an underlying debt obligation and the simultaneous agreement to repurchase it at an agreed-upon price and date. These transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold under a reverse repurchase agreement could decline below the cost of the obligation to repurchase them. An Underlying Fund will identify liquid assets on its books to cover its obligations under reverse repurchase agreements, including interest, until payment is made to the seller.

Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Generally, an illiquid asset is an asset that cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the price at which it has been valued. Under the policies and procedures established by the Board, the Manager determines the liquidity of portfolio investments. The Manager monitors holdings of illiquid and restricted securities on an ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any holdings to maintain adequate liquidity. Among the types of illiquid securities are repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days.

Restricted securities acquired through private placements have contractual restrictions on their public resale that might limit the ability to value or to dispose of the securities and might lower the price that could be realized on a sale. To sell a restricted security that is not registered under applicable securities laws, the securities might need to be registered. The expense of registering restricted securities may be negotiated with the issuer at the time of purchase. If the securities must be registered in order to be sold, a significant period may elapse between the time the decision is made to sell the security and the time the security is registered. There is a risk of downward price fluctuation during that period.

Limitations that apply to purchases of restricted securities do not limit purchases of restricted securities that are eligible for sale to qualified institutional buyers 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 the 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, holdings of that security may be considered to be illiquid.

Borrowing and Leverage. The Fund and the Underlying Funds have the ability to borrow money, to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption from the Act that applies to the Fund or an Underlying Fund, as such statute, rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time. Currently, under the Investment Company Act, a mutual fund may borrow only from banks (for other than emergency purposes) and only to the extent that the value of a fund's assets, less its liabilities other than borrowings, is equal to at least 300% of all borrowings including the proposed borrowing, except that it may also borrow up to 5% of its total assets for temporary or emergency purposes from any lender. 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.

When the Fund or an Underlying Fund borrows, it segregates or identifies securities on its books equal to 300% of the amount borrowed to cover its obligation to repay the loan. If the value of a Fund's assets fails to meet this 300% asset coverage requirement, it will reduce its borrowings within three days to meet the requirement. To do so, the Fund or an Underlying might have to sell a portion of its investments at a disadvantageous time.

When a Fund invests borrowed money in portfolio securities, it is using a speculative investment technique known as "leverage." If it does borrow, its expenses may be greater than comparable funds that do not borrow. A Fund will pay interest on loans, and that interest expense may raise the overall expenses of the Fund and reduce its returns. In the case of borrowing for leverage, the interest paid on a loan might be more (or less) than the yield on the securities purchased with the loan proceeds. Additionally, the use of leverage may make the Fund's or an Underlying Fund's share prices more sensitive to interest rate changes and thus might cause a Fund's net asset value per share to fluctuate more than that of funds that do not borrow.

Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments. In times of unstable or adverse market, economic or political conditions, or if the Manager believes it is otherwise appropriate to reduce holdings in principal investments, the Fund or any Underlying Fund can invest in other types of securities for defensive purposes. The Fund or an Underlying Fund can also purchase these types of securities for liquidity purposes to meet cash needs due to the redemption of shares, or to hold while waiting to invest cash received from the sale of its shares or portfolio securities.

These temporary defensive investments can include: (i) obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities; (ii) commercial paper rated in the highest category by an established nationally recognized statistical rating organization; (iii) certificates of deposit or bankers' acceptances of domestic banks with assets of $1 billion or more; (iv) any of the foregoing securities that mature in one year or less (generally known as "cash equivalents"); (v) other short-term corporate debt obligations; (vi) repurchase agreements; and (vii) shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund.

Loans of Portfolio Securities. Securities lending pursuant to a Securities Lending Agency Agreement (the "Securities Lending Agreement") with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, doing business as Goldman Sachs Agency Lending ("Goldman Sachs"), may be used to attempt to increase income. Loans of portfolio securities are must comply with all applicable regulations and with the Securities Lending Procedures adopted by the Board. The terms of any loans must also meet applicable tests under the Internal Revenue Code.

There are certain risks in connection with securities lending, including possible delays in receiving additional collateral to secure a loan, or a delay or expenses in recovery of the loaned securities. Goldman Sachs has agreed, in general, to guarantee the obligations of borrowers to return loaned securities and to be responsible for certain expenses relating to securities lending. Under the Securities Lending Agreement, the securities lending procedures and applicable regulatory requirements (which are subject to change), a fund must receive collateral from the borrower consisting of cash, bank letters of credit or securities of the U.S. government (or its agencies or instrumentalities). On each business day, the amount of collateral that a fund has received must at least equal the value of the loaned securities. If a fund receives cash collateral from the borrower, a fund may invest that cash in certain high quality, short-term investments, including money market funds advised by the Manager, as specified in its securities lending procedures. A fund will be responsible for the risks associated with the investment of cash collateral, including the risk that a fund may lose money on the investment or may fail to earn sufficient income to meet its obligations to the borrower.

The terms of the loans must permit a fund to recall loaned securities on five business days' notice and a fund will seek to recall loaned securities in time to vote on any matters that the Manager determines would have a material effect on a fund's investment. The Securities Lending Agreement may be terminated by either Goldman Sachs or a fund on 30 days' written notice.

Each Underlying Fund limits its loans of portfolio securities to not more than 25% of its net assets.

Portfolio Turnover. "Portfolio turnover" describes the rate at which the Fund and the Underlying Funds trade their portfolio securities. For example, if the Fund or Underlying Funds sold all of their securities during a one year period, their portfolio turnover rate would be 100%. The Fund's and Underlying Funds' portfolio turnover rates will fluctuate from year to year. It is not anticipated that the Fund will have a high portfolio turnover rate, however, the Underlying Funds may have a portfolio turnover rate of more than 100% annually.

Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage and transaction costs for the Underlying Funds, which may reduce their overall performance. Most of the Fund's portfolio transactions, however, should involve trades in the Underlying Funds that do not entail brokerage commissions. The realization of capital gains from selling portfolio securities may result in distributions of taxable long-term capital gains to shareholders. The Fund and the Underlying Funds will normally distribute all of the capital gains they realize each year to avoid excise taxes under the Internal Revenue Code.

Investment Restrictions

Fundamental Policies. The Fund and the Underlying Funds have adopted policies and restrictions to govern their investments. Under the Investment Company Act, "fundamental" policies are those policies that can be changed only by the vote of a "majority" of a Fund's or an Underlying Fund's outstanding voting securities, which is defined as the vote of the holders of the lesser of:

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

more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

The Fund's investment objective is not a fundamental policy, but will not be changed without approval by the Fund's Board of Trustees and notice to shareholders. The investment objectives of the Underlying Funds may be fundamental or non-fundamental, according to the Prospectus and SAI of each Underlying Fund. Other policies described in the Fund's and/or the Underlying Funds' Prospectuses or SAIs, are fundamental only if they are identified as such. The Fund's Board of Trustees and each Underlying Fund's Board of Directors or 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 SAI, as appropriate.

Other Fundamental Investment Restrictions. The following investment restrictions are fundamental policies of the Fund.

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, regulations or exemptions may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

The Fund may not make any investment if, as a result, the Fund's investments will be concentrated in any one industry, 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, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction. For purposes of this concentration limitation, the Fund's investment adviser may analyze the characteristics of a particular issuer and instrument and may assign an industry or sector classification consistent with those characteristics in the event that any third party classification provider that may be used by the investment adviser does not assign a classification.

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, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

The Fund cannot invest in real estate or commodities, 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, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

The Fund cannot issue "senior securities," except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefromthat is applicable to the Fund, as such statute, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

The Fund cannot underwrite securities of other issuers, except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act or the Securities Act of 1933, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to the Fund, as such statutes, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

Currently, under the Investment Company Act, and the Oppenheimer funds' exemptive order, a fund may borrow only from banks and/or affiliated investment companies in an amount 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. Also, presently under the Investment Company Act, a fund may lend its portfolio securities in an amount not to exceed 33 1/3 percent of the value of its total assets. The Investment Company Act also requires each registered fund to adopt a fundamental policy regarding investments in real estate and/or commodities. To the extent that a Fund or an Underlying Fund has restrictions on or is not permitted to invest in real estate, real estate related securities and/or commodities, that information is set out in the investment restrictions in this section.

Presently, under the Investment Company Act a registered mutual fund cannot make any commitment as an underwriter, if immediately thereafter the amount of its outstanding underwriting commitments, plus the value of its investments in securities of issuers (other than investment companies) of which it owns more than ten percent of the outstanding voting securities, exceeds twenty-five percent of the value of the fund's total assets, except to the extent that a fund may be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act when reselling securities held in its own portfolio.

Do the Underlying Funds Have Fundamental Policies? Each of the Underlying Funds has its own fundamental policies. Those policies may differ from the fundamental policies of the Funds or the other Underlying Funds. The Funds and the Underlying Funds each apply their own policies with respect to their own portfolio investments. The following investment restrictions are the current fundamental policies of the Underlying Funds:

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund:

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not purchase the securities, commodity-linked notes and other instruments of any issuer if, as a result, 25% or more of the Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's total assets would be invested in the securities of companies whose principal business activities are in the same industry or group of industries. This restriction does not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities, or repurchase agreements secured by them.

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will invest 25% or more of its total assets in securities, commodity-linked notes and other instruments, including futures and forward contracts, related options and swaps, linked to one or more of the energy and natural resources, agriculture, livestock, industrial metals, and precious metals sectors. The individual components of an index will be considered as separate industries for this purpose. Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may also invest more than 25% of total assets in a group of industries.

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not issue any senior security. However, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may enter into commitments to purchase securities in accordance with the Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's investment program, including reverse repurchase agreements, delayed-delivery and when-issued securities, which may be considered the issuance of senior securities. Additionally, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may engage in transactions that may result in the issuance of a senior security to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act and applicable regulations, interpretations of the Investment Company Act or an exemptive order. Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may also engage in short sales of securities to the extent permitted in its investment program and other restrictions. The purchase or sale of commodity-linked notes, futures or swap contracts and related options shall not be considered to involve the issuance of senior securities. Moreover, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may borrow money as authorized by the Investment Company Act.

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments. This restriction shall not prevent Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund from purchasing or selling commodity-linked notes, or options and futures contracts with respect to individual commodities or indices, or from investing in securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities or indices.

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund will not purchase or sell real estate unless acquired as a result of direct ownership of securities or other instruments. This restriction shall not prevent Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund from investing in securities or other instruments backed by real estate or securities of companies engaged in the real estate business, including real estate investment trusts. This restriction does not preclude Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund from buying securities backed by mortgages on real estate or securities of companies engaged in such activities. Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund can also invest in real estate operating companies and shares of companies engaged in other real estate related businesses.

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund cannot underwrite securities issued by other persons. A permitted exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933 when reselling securities held in its own portfolio.

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund cannot make loans except (a) through lending of securities, (b) through the purchase of debt instruments or similar evidences of indebtedness, (c) through an interfund lending program with other affiliated funds, provided that no such loan may be made if, as a result, the aggregate of such loans would exceed 33 1/3% of the value of its total assets (taken at market value at the time of such loans), and (d) through repurchase agreements. Currently, the Investment Company Act permits (a) lending of securities, (b) purchasing debt securities or similar evidences of indebtedness, (c) repurchase agreements and (d) interfund lending consistent with Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's exemptive order; or

Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund cannot borrow money in excess of 33 1/3% of the value of its total assets. Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may borrow only from banks and/or affiliated investment companies. With respect to this fundamental policy, Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund can borrow only if it maintains a 300% ratio of assets to borrowings at all times in the manner set forth in the Investment Company Act. Currently, the Investment Company Act permits a mutual fund to borrow from banks and/or affiliated investment companies up to one-third of its total assets (including the amount borrowed). Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund may borrow up to 5% of its total assets for temporary purposes from any person. Interfund borrowing must be consistent with the Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's exemptive order.

As a non-fundamental investment policy, Commodity Strategy Total Return 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.

The percentage restrictions described above and in the Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund's Prospectus (other than the percentage limitations that apply on an on-going basis and except in the case of borrowing and investments in illiquid securities) apply only at the time of investment and require no action by the Fund as a result of subsequent changes in relative values.

Currency Opportunities Fund:

Currency Opportunities 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 Currency Opportunities Fund, as such statute, rules, regulations or exemptions may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities & Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

Currency Opportunities Fund may not make any investment if, as a result, Currency Opportunities Fund's investments will be concentrated in any one industry, except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to Currency Opportunities Fund, as such statute, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities & Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction. For purposes of this concentration limitation, Currency Opportunities Fund's investment adviser may analyze the characteristics of a particular issuer and instrument and may assign an industry or sector classification consistent with those characteristics in the event that any third party classification provider that may be used by the investment adviser does not assign a classification.

Currency Opportunities 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 Currency Opportunity Fund, as such statute, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities & Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

Currency Opportunities Fund cannot invest in real estate or commodities, except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to Currency Opportunities Fund, as such statute, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities & Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

Currency Opportunities Fund cannot issue "senior securities," except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to Currency Opportunities Fund, as such statute, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities & Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

Currency Opportunities Fund cannot underwrite securities of other issuers, except to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act or the Securities Act of 1933, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption therefrom that is applicable to Currency Opportunities Fund, as such statutes, rules, regulations or exemption may be amended or interpreted from time to time by the Securities & Exchange Commission, its staff, or other authority with appropriate jurisdiction.

As a non-fundamental investment policy, Currency Opportunities 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.

Global Multi Strategies Fund:

Global Multi Strategies 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.

Non-Diversification of Certain Underlying Fund's Investments. Gold & Special Minerals Fund, Real Estate Fund, SteelPath MLP Alpha Fund, and SteelPath Infratrusture Debt Fund (each a "Non-Diversified Underlying Fund") are "non-diversified," as defined in the Investment Company Act. Funds that are diversified have restrictions against investing too much of their assets in the securities of any one "issuer." That means that a Non-Diversified Underlying Fund can invest more of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than a fund that is diversified.

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

Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings

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 processes, 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 a portfolio manager is trading on the Fund's behalf.

The Fund, the Manager, the Distributor and the Transfer Agent have therefore adopted policies and procedures regarding the dissemination of information about the Fund's portfolio holdings by employees, officers and directors or trustees of the Fund, the Manager, the Distributor and the Transfer Agent. These policies are designed to assure that non-public information about the Fund's portfolio securities holdings 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. It is a violation of the Code of Ethics for any covered person to release holdings in contravention of the portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures adopted by the Fund.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure Policies. The Fund, the Manager, the Distributor and the Transfer Agent and their affiliates and subsidiaries, employees, officers, and directors or trustees, 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. Until publicly disclosed, the Fund's portfolio holdings are proprietary, confidential business information. After they are publicly disclosed, the Fund's portfolio holdings may be released in accordance with the Fund's, the Manager's, the Distributor's and the Transfer Agent's policies and procedures regarding dissemination of information about the Fund's portfolio holdings.

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 annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders and in its Schedule of Investments on Form N-Q. Those documents are publicly available at the SEC. In addition, the Fund's portfolio holdings information, as of the end of each calendar month, may be posted and available on the Fund's website (at www.oppenheimerfunds.com) no sooner than 30 days after the end of each calendar month. The top 20 month-end securities holdings, listed by security or by issuer, may be posted on the OppenheimerFunds website with a 15-day delay. The Fund may delay posting its holdings, post a smaller list of holdings (e.g., the top 10 or top 15 portfolio holdings), or may not post any holdings, if the Manager believes that would be 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 publicly disclosed 15 days after the end of each calendar month.

The Fund's portfolio holdings information (which may include information on the Fund's entire portfolio of individual securities therein) positions may be released to the following categories of individuals or entities on an ongoing basis, provided that such individual or entity either (1) has signed an agreement to keep such information confidential and will not use such information in any way that is detrimental to the Manager, its affiliates and the Fund or (2) as a member of the Fund's Board, or as an employee, officer or director of the Manager, the Distributor, or the Transfer Agent, or of their legal counsel, is subject to fiduciary obligations (a) not to disclose such information except in compliance with the Fund's policies and procedures and (b) not to trade for his or her personal account on the basis of such information.

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 entities);

The Fund's independent registered public accounting firm;

Members of the Fund's Board and the Board's legal counsel;

The Fund's custodian bank;

A proxy voting service designated by the Fund and its Board;

Rating/ranking organizations (such as Lipper, Inc. and Morningstar, Inc.);

Portfolio pricing services retained by the Manager to provide portfolio security prices;

Insurance companies that have separate accounts invested in Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds or Panorama Series Fund, Inc. (to prepare their financial statements and analysis);

Brokers and dealers for purposes of providing portfolio analytic services;

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

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).

Month-end lists of the Fund's complete portfolio holdings may be disclosed for legitimate business reasons, no sooner than 5 days after the relevant month end, pursuant to special requests and under limited circumstances discussed below, provided that:

The third-party recipient must first submit a request for release of Fund portfolio holdings, explaining the business reason for the request;

Senior officers in the Manager's Investment Operations and Legal departments must approve the completed request for release of Fund portfolio holdings; and

Before receiving the data, the third-party recipient must sign the Manager's portfolio holdings non-disclosure agreement, agreeing to keep confidential the information that is not publicly available regarding the Fund's holdings and agreeing not to use such information in any way that is detrimental to the Manager, its affiliates and the Fund.

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:

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;

Response to regulatory requests for information (from the SEC, the 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);

To potential sub-advisers of portfolios (pursuant to confidentiality agreements);

To consultants for retirement plans for plan sponsors/discussions at due diligence meetings (pursuant to confidentiality agreements);

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 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 applicable policies and procedures. At least annually the CCO reports to the Fund's Board any material violation of these policies and procedures during the previous period and makes 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 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 Delaware statutory trust in September 2012.

Classes of Shares. The Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Board") is authorized, without shareholder approval, to:

create new series and classes of shares;

reclassify unissued shares into additional series and classes; and

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.

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

has its own dividends and distributions;

pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes;

will generally have a different net asset value;

will generally have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one class are different from interests of another class; and

votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

Each share of each class:

represents an interest in the Fund proportionately equal to the interest of each other share of the same class;

is freely transferable;

has one vote at shareholder meetings, with fractional shares voting proportionally;

may be voted in person or by proxy at shareholder meetings; and

does not have cumulative voting rights, preemptive rights or subscription rights.

Class N Share Availability. The types of retirement plans which may purchase Class N shares are:

Omnibus group retirement plans, including plans under Section 401(a), 401(k), 403(b) (other than plans for public school employees) and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code;

Rollover contributions and trustee-to-trustee transfers made to Single K plans (401(k) plans for self-employed individuals), IRAs (including SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs), Profit-Sharing Plans and Money Purchase Pension Plans;

Rollover contributions, contract exchanges and plan to plan transfers made to 403(b) Plans;

"Grouped Plans" that have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor;

"Grouped Plans" include any qualified or non-qualified retirement plan or account or deferred compensation plan for employees or other organized groups of persons, where all eligible members of the group purchase shares of an Oppenheimer fund or funds through a single investment dealer, broker or other financial institution if the group or the dealer, broker or other financial has made special arrangements with the Distributor. They may include 457 plans, IRAs and 403(b) plans (other than plans for public school employees).

Class Y Share Availability.

Class Y shares are offered to fee-based clients of dealers that have a special agreement with the Distributor to offer these shares, and to certain institutional investors who have a special agreement with the Distributor. Class Y shares are also offered to present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and their eligible family members) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates, its parent company and the subsidiaries of its parent company, and retirement plans established for the benefit of such individuals.

Voluntary Conversion to Class Y Shares. For shareholders who currently hold other classes of Fund shares, but are authorized to purchase Class Y shares, those shareholders can convert their eligible existing shares to Class Y shares of the Fund either through their dealer who has a special agreement with the Distributor or by submitting written instructions to the Transfer Agent. Shares that are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") are not eligible to convert to Class Y shares until the applicable CDSC period has expired. Under current interpretations of applicable federal income tax law by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), this voluntary conversion to Class Y shares is not treated as a taxable event. If those laws or the IRS interpretation of those laws should change, this voluntary conversion feature may be suspended.

Class I Share Availability.

Class I shares are not available directly to individual investors. They are only available to eligible institutional investors. To be eligible to purchase Class I shares, an investor must:

make a minimum initial investment of $5 million or more per account (waived for retirement plan service provider platforms);

trade through an omnibus, trust, or similar pooled account; and

be an "institutional investor" which may include corporations; trust companies; endowments and foundations; defined contribution, defined benefit, and other employer sponsored retirement plans; retirement plan platforms; insurance companies; registered investment advisor firms; registered investment companies; bank trusts; 529 college savings plans; and family offices.

No commission payments, account servicing fees, recordkeeping fees, 12b-1 fees, transfer agent fees, so called "finder's fees," administrative fees or other similar fees will be paid with respect to Class I shares.

Voluntary Conversion to Class I Shares. Shareholders who currently hold other classes of Fund shares but are eligible to purchase Class I shares can convert their eligible existing shares to Class I shares of the Fund either through their financial intermediary or by submitting an application to the Transfer Agent. Shares of another share class that are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge, commission payments, account servicing fees, recordkeeping fees, 12b-1 fees, transfer agent fees, so called "finders fees," administrative fees or other similar fees are not eligible to convert to Class I shares. Under current interpretations of applicable federal income tax law by the Internal Revenue Service, this voluntary conversion to Class I shares is not treated as a taxable event. If those laws or the IRS interpretation of those laws should change, this voluntary conversion feature may be suspended.

Involuntary Conversion of Class I Shares. If a Class I share account balance falls below $2.5 million, the investor will be notified that the account is below the required minimum balance. If the account remains below $2.5 million for more than six consecutive months after such notification, the account may be involuntarily redeemed or converted into a Class Y share account. This policy does not apply to accounts for which the minimum initial investment is waived.

Individual shareholders who purchase Class I shares through retirement plans or other intermediaries will not be eligible to hold Class I shares outside of their respective retirement plan or intermediary platform.

Shareholder and Trustee Liability; Shareholder Meetings. Under Delaware law and the Fund's Declaration of Trust, Fund shareholders are entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to shareholders of corporations organized under Delaware law. Under Delaware law and the Fund's Declaration of Trust, Trustees are not personally liable to any person for any obligations of the Fund. Therefore a shareholder or Trustee of the Fund generally will not be subject to personal liability for Fund obligations. The risk that a Fund shareholder or Trustee will incur personal liability for Fund obligations is limited to the circumstances in which a state court may not apply Delaware law or the terms of the Fund's Declaration of Trust.

As a Delaware statutory trust, the Fund is not required to hold regular annual meetings of shareholders and does not plan to do so. The Fund may hold shareholder meetings from time to time.

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 Delaware and Federal law. The Board is led by Brian F. Wruble, an independent trustee, who is not an "interested person" of the Fund, as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Board meets periodically throughout the year to oversee the Fund's activities, review its performance, oversee the potential conflicts that could affect the Fund, and review the actions of the Manager. The Board 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 Board is assisted in its oversight by an Advisory Board, which is solely comprised by Joanne Pace. The Advisory Board assists the Board in a non-voting capacity in its oversight of the Fund. Ms. Pace is also an Independent Trustee of certain Funds, identified below. For purposes of the following disclosure, Ms. Pace is listed among other Independent Trustees but is identified as a Trustee/Advisory Board Member.

Because the Fund has not yet completed its first fiscal year, there is no information regarding the number of Audit Committee, Regulatory & Oversight Committee or Governance Committee meetings during the last fiscal year.

The members of the Audit Committee are David K. Downes (Chairman), Phillip A. Griffiths, Mary F. Miller, Joanne Pace, Joseph M. Wikler, Peter I. Wold and Brian F. Wruble. The Audit Committee selects an 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/Directors; (v) reviewing the independence of the Fund's Independent Auditors; and (vi) approving in advance 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 Audit Committee also reviews reports concerning the valuation of certain investments.

The members of the Regulatory & Oversight Committee are Matthew P. Fink (Chairman), David K. Downes, Phillip A. Griffiths, Joel W. Motley, Joanne Pace, Mary Ann Tynan, Joseph M. Wikler and Brian F. Wruble. 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. The Regulatory & Oversight Committee also reviews reports from the Manager's Risk Management Department and Chief Compliance Officer among other duties as set forth in the Regulatory & Oversight Committee's Charter. These reports, and others concerning investment, operational and other risks to the Funds are shared with, and discussed by, the full Board.

The members of the Governance Committee are Joel W. Motley (Chairman), Matthew P. Fink, Mary F. Miller, Mary Ann Tynan and Peter I. Wold. 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, monitors the Fund's proxy voting, and coordinates with organizations representing the independent directors of mutual funds among other duties set forth in the Governance Committee's Charter.

The Governance Committee's functions also include the nomination of Trustees/Directors, including Independent Trustees/Directors, for election to the Board. The full Board elects new Trustees/Directors except for those instances when a shareholder vote is required.

The Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by Independent Trustees/Directors or recommended by any other Board members including Board members affiliated with the Fund's Manager. The Governance Committee may consider the advice and recommendation of the Manager and its affiliates in selecting nominees, but need not do so. Upon Board approval, the Governance Committee may retain an executive search firm to assist in screening potential candidates and may also use the services of legal, financial, or other external counsel that it deems necessary or desirable in the screening process. To date, the Governance Committee has been able to identify from its own resources an ample number of qualified candidates. However, under the current policy of the Board, if the Board determines that a vacancy exists or is likely to exist, the Governance Committee will include candidates recommended by the Fund's shareholders in its consideration of nominees.

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/Directors of the applicable 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 nominee. In evaluating 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, and add to the diversity of, the background, skills, and experience of other Trustees/Directors, and will contribute to the Board's deliberations. There is no difference in the manner in which the Governance Committee evaluates a nominee 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.

Below is a brief discussion of the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of each Board member that led the Board to conclude that he or she should serve as a Trustee/Director of the Fund.

Each independent trustee/director has served on the Board for the number of years listed below, during the course of which he or she has become familiar with the Fund's (and other Oppenheimer funds') financial, accounting, regulatory and investment matters and has contributed to the Board's deliberations. Each Trustee's/Director's outside professional experience is outlined in the table of Biographical Information, below.

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. Present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and their eligible family members) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates, its parent company and the subsidiaries of its parent company, and retirement plans established for the benefit of such individuals, are also permitted to purchase Class Y shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds that offer Class Y shares.

As of the date of this SAI, the Fund had not yet commenced operations. Accordingly, the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group, did not own any class of shares of the Fund, beneficially or of record. In addition, none of the Independent Trustees (nor any of their immediate family members) owns securities of either the Manager or the Distributor or of any entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Manager or the Distributor.

1. "Aggregate Compensation From the Fund" includes fees and amounts deferred under the "Compensation Deferral Plan" (described below), if any.
2. Effective October 1, 2012, Mr. Wruble became a member of the Audit Committee and Regulatory & Oversight Committee.
3. Ms. Pace became an Independent Trustee/Advisory Board Member on November 1, 2012, and therefore did not receive any compensation in 2011.

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 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 on 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 invest in the funds selected by the Trustee under the plan without shareholder approval for the limited purpose of determining the value of the Trustee's deferred compensation account.

Major Shareholders. As of the date of this SAI, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., the Manager, is the only shareholder of record of the Fund due to its initial investment "seed money" required for the Fund to commence operations.

The Manager

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

Code of Ethics. The Fund, the Manager, Sub-Adviser and the Distributor have a Code of Ethics. It is designed to detect and prevent improper personal trading by portfolio managers and certain other employees ("covered persons") that could 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/or 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 Sub-Adviser and the Distributor.

The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement filed with the SEC. It can be viewed as part of the Fund's registration statement on the SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C.

The Investment Advisory Agreement. The Manager provides investment advisory and management services to the Fund under an investment advisory agreement between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager selects securities for the Fund's portfolio and handles its day-to-day business. The portfolio manager of the Fund is employed by the Manager and is the person who is principally responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio. Other members of the Manager's Equity Portfolio Department provide the portfolio 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 Fund is a new fund that has not yet completed its first fiscal year, therefore, the fund has paid no management fees to the Manager under the investment advisory agreement for the last three fiscal years.

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 an 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.

The Sub-Advisory Agreement. Under the sub-advisory agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser shall regularly provide investment advice with respect to the Fund and invest and reinvest cash, securities, commodity interests and the property comprising the assets of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser selects securities and/or commodity interests for the Fund's portfolio and provides related advisory services. The portfolio manager(s) of the Fund is employed by the Sub-Adviser and is principally responsible for the provision of advisory services of the Fund's portfolio. Other members of the Sub-Adviser's investment teams provide the portfolio manager(s) with counsel and support in managing the Fund's portfolio.

Under the sub-advisory agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser a percentage of the net investment advisory fee (after all applicable waivers) that it receives from the Fund as compensation for the provision of investment advisory services. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser under the sub-advisory agreement is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.

The sub-advisory agreement states that in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties or obligations, the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Manager for any act or omission in the course of or connected with rendering services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement or for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security.

Portfolio Proxy Voting. The Fund is structured as a fund of funds and, as such, will invest assets in certain of the Underlying Funds. Accordingly, the Fund, in its capacity as a shareholder in the Underlying Funds, may be requested to vote on a matter pertaining to those Underlying Funds. With respect to any such matter, the Fund will vote its shares in the Underlying Funds in the same proportion as the vote of all other shareholders in that Underlying Fund.

The Fund and the Underlying Funds (each a "Fund" for purposes of portfolio proxy voting) have adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures, which include Proxy Voting Guidelines, under which the Fund votes proxies relating to securities held by the Fund ("portfolio proxies"). The Manager generally undertakes to vote portfolio proxies with a view to enhancing the value of the company's stock held by the Funds. Each Fund has retained an independent, third party proxy voting agent to vote portfolio proxies in accordance with the Fund's Proxy Voting Guidelines and to maintain records of such portfolio proxy voting. The Manager's internal Proxy Voting Committee is responsible for monitoring the third party proxy voting agent.

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 material conflicts of interest 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 procedures, as long as OFI determines that the course of action is consistent with the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders:

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.

If such proposal is not specifically addressed in the Proxy Voting Guidelines, or if the Proxy Voting Guidelines provide discretion to the Manager on how to vote (i.e., on a case-by-case basis), 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.

With respect to such proposal where a portfolio manager has requested that the Manager vote (i) in a manner inconsistent with the Proxy Voting Guidelines, or (ii) if such proposal is not specifically addressed in the Proxy Voting Guidelines, in a manner inconsistent with the third-party proxy voting agent's general recommended guidelines, the Proxy Voting Committee may determine that such a request is in the best interests of the Fund (and, if applicable, its shareholders) and does not pose an actual material conflict of interest. In making its determination, the Proxy Voting Committee may consider, among other things, whether the portfolio manager is aware of the business relationship with the company, and/or is sufficiently independent from the business relationship, and to the Proxy Voting Committee's knowledge, whether the Manager has been contacted or influenced by the company in connection with the proposal.

If none of the previous procedures provides an appropriate voting recommendation, the Proxy Voting Committee may: (i) determine how to vote on the proposal; (ii) recommend that the Manager retain an independent fiduciary to advise the Manager on how to vote the proposal; or (iii) determine that voting on the particular proposal is impracticable and/or is outweighed by the cost of voting and direct the Manager to abstain from voting.

The Proxy Voting Guidelines' provisions with respect to certain routine and non-routine proxy proposals are summarized below:

The Fund evaluates director nominees on a case-by-case basis, examining the following factors, among others: composition of the board and key board committees, experience and qualifications, attendance at board meetings, corporate governance provisions and takeover activity, long-term company performance, the nominee's investment in the company, and whether the company or nominee is targeted in connection with public "vote no" campaigns.

The Fund generally supports proposals requiring the position of chairman to be filled by an independent director unless there are compelling reasons to recommend against the proposal such as a counterbalancing governance structure.

The Fund generally supports proposals asking that a majority of directors be independent. The Fund generally supports proposals asking that a board audit, compensation, and/or nominating committee be composed exclusively of independent directors.

The Fund generally votes against shareholder proposals to require a company to nominate more candidates than the number of open board seats.

The Fund generally supports shareholder proposals to reduce a super-majority vote requirement, and opposes management proposals to add a super-majority vote requirement.

The Fund generally supports proposals to allow shareholders the ability to call special meetings.

The Fund generally votes for proposals that remove restrictions on or provide the right of shareholders to act by written consent independently of management taking into account the company's specific governance provisions including right to call special meetings, poison pills, vote standards, etc. on a case-by-case basis.

The Fund generally votes against proposals to create a new class of stock with superior voting rights.

The Fund generally votes against proposals to classify a board.

The Fund generally supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.

The Fund generally votes against proposals to establish a new board committee.

The Fund generally votes on management proposals seeking approval to exchange/reprice options on a case-by-case basis.

The Fund votes on qualified employee stock purchase plans on a case-by-case basis. The Fund generally supports non-qualified employee stock purchase plans that feature broad-based participation, limits on employee contribution, company matching up to 25%, and no discount on the stock price on the date of purchase.

The Fund generally supports transfer stock option ("TSO") programs, if executive officers and non-employee directors are excluded from participating, if stock options are purchased from third-party financial institutions at a discount to their fair value using option pricing models, and if there is a two-year minimum holding period for sale proceeds. The Fund generally votes against equity plan proposals if the details of ongoing TSO programs are not provided to shareholders.

The Fund generally supports proposals to require majority voting for the election of directors.

The Fund generally supports proposals seeking additional disclosure of executive and director pay information.

The Fund generally supports proposals seeking disclosure regarding the company's, board's or committee's use of compensation consultants.

The Fund generally supports "pay-for-performance" and "pay-for-superior-performance standard" proposals that align a significant portion of total compensation of senior executives to company performance, and generally supports an annual frequency for advisory votes on executive compensation.

The Fund generally supports having shareholder votes on poison pills.

The Fund generally supports proposals calling for companies to adopt a policy of not providing tax gross-up payments.

The Fund votes case-by-case on bonus banking/bonus banking "plus" proposals.

The Fund generally supports proposals calling for companies to adopt a policy of obtaining shareholder approval for golden coffins/executive death benefits. This would not apply to any benefit programs or equity plan proposals for which the broad-based employee population is eligible.

The Fund generally supports proposals to eliminate accelerated vesting of unvested equity awards to senior executives in the event of change in control (except for pro rata vesting considering the time elapsed and attainment of any related performance goals between the award date and the change in control).

In the case of social, political and environmental responsibility issues, the Fund will generally abstain where there could be a detrimental impact on share value or where the perceived value if the proposal was adopted is unclear or unsubstantiated.

The Fund generally supports proposals that would clearly have a discernible positive impact on short- or long-term share value, or that would have a presently indiscernible impact on short- or long-term share value but promotes general long-term interests of the company and its shareholders.

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.

Pending Litigation. Since 2009, a number of class action lawsuits have been pending in federal courts against the Sub-Adviser, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Sub-Adviser and distributed by the Distributor (the "Defendant Funds"). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund's investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds' Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits.

On June 6, 2012, the SEC entered a settled order instituting administrative cease-and-desist proceedings against the Sub-Adviser and the Distributor, resolving an investigation by the SEC Staff into the 2008 performance of Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. In entering into the settlement, the Sub-Adviser and the Distributor neither admitted nor denied the allegations set forth in the Order. As set forth in the Order, the SEC found that the disclosure documents for Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund did not adequately disclose certain of that fund's investment practices and that the Sub-Adviser made misleading statements about the ability of Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund to recoup losses incurred as a result of unprecedented volatility in the credit markets. On the basis of those findings, the Sub-Adviser and the Distributor were censured and ordered to cease and desist from violations of applicable laws and regulations. The Sub-Adviser was also ordered to pay disgorgement, prejudgment interest and a civil money penalty.

Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Sub-Adviser and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the "Ponzi" scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC ("BLMIS"). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court's order approving the settlement. The aforementioned settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.

On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Sub-Adviser, an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited ("AAArdvark IV"), an entity advised by the Sub-Adviser's affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Sub-Adviser, an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser and AAArdvark Funding Limited ("AAArdvark I"), an entity advised by the Sub-Adviser's affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Sub-Adviser, an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited ("AAArdvark XS"), an entity advised by the Sub-Adviser's affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.

The Sub-Adviser believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Sub-Adviser believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

Portfolio Manager. The Fund is managed by Alan Gilston (the "Portfolio Manager"), who is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's investments.

Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the Fund's investment portfolio, the Portfolio Manager also manages other investment portfolios and accounts on behalf of the Manager or its affiliates. The following table provides information regarding those portfolios and accounts as of November 30, 2012:

Portfolio Manager	Registered Investment Companies Managed	Total Assets in Registered Investment Companies Managed¹	Other Pooled Investment Vehicles Managed	Total Assets in Other Pooled Investment Vehicles Managed²	Other Accounts Managed	Total Assets in Other Accounts Managed³
Alan Gilston	5	$4.62	0	$0	0	$0

1. In billions.
2. In millions.
3. Does not include personal accounts of the portfolio managers and their families which are subject to the Code of Ethics.

As indicated above, a portfolio manager may also manage other funds and accounts. At different times, a portfolio manager may manage other funds or accounts with investment objectives and strategies similar to, or different from, those of the Fund. At times, those responsibilities could potentially conflict with the interests of the Fund. That may occur whether the investment objectives and strategies of the other funds and accounts are the same as, or different from, the Fund's investment objectives and strategies. For example, a portfolio manager may need to allocate investment opportunities between the Fund and another fund or account having similar objectives or strategies, or may need to execute transactions for another fund or account that could have a negative impact on the value of securities held by the Fund. Not all funds and accounts advised by the Sub-Adviser have the same management fee. If the management fee structure of another fund or account is more advantageous to the Sub-Adviser than the fee structure of the Fund, the Sub-Adviser could have an incentive to favor the other fund or account. However, the Sub-Adviser's compliance procedures and Code of Ethics recognize the Sub-Adviser's obligation to treat all of its clients, including the Fund, fairly and equitably, and are designed to preclude a portfolio manager from favoring one client over another. It is possible, of course, that those compliance procedures and the Code of Ethics may not always be adequate to do so.

Compensation of Portfolio Managers. Portfolio managers are employed and compensated by the Sub-Adviser, not the Fund. Under the Sub-Adviser's compensation program for its portfolio managers and portfolio analysts, compensation is based primarily on the relative investment performance results of the funds or accounts they manage, rather than on the financial success of the Sub-Adviser. This is intended to align the interests of the portfolio managers and analysts with the success of the funds and accounts of their shareholders. The Sub-Adviser'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. Portfolio manager compensation generally consists of three elements: a base salary, an annual bonus (comprised of both a formulaic performance component and a discretionary component) and eligibility to participate in long-term awards. Long-term award grants may consist of appreciation rights in regard to the common stock of the Sub-Adviser's holding company parent, restricted shares of such common stock, as well as deferred investments in the fund(s) managed by a portfolio manager.

A portfolio manager's compensation is not directly based on the total value of assets they manage; however, higher total compensation potential is likely to align with greater assets under management. The compensation structure is intended to be internally and externally equitable and serve to reduce potential conflict of interest arising from a portfolio manager's responsibilities managing different funds or accounts. The base pay component of each 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. The formulaic performance component of the annual bonus is measured against the one, three and five year performance, or performance since inception, as applicable, of the fund(s) relative to an appropriate Lipper or Morningstar peer group category selected by senior management of the Sub-Adviser. The compensation structure is weighted towards long-term performance of the funds which best aligns the interests of the portfolio manager and the shareholder. Below median performance in all three periods results in an extremely low, and in some cases no, performance based bonus. The annual discretionary bonus is determined by senior management of the Sub-Adviser and is based on a number of factors, including, management quality (such as style consistency, risk management, sector coverage, team leadership and coaching), contributions to marketing efforts and organizational development.

The compensation structure of other funds and/or accounts managed by a portfolio manager, if any, is generally the same as the compensation structure described above. A portfolio manager's compensation with regard to other portfolios may be based on the performance of those portfolios compared to a peer group category that may be different from those described below.

The Lipper benchmark for the Fund is Global Flexible and the Morningstar benchmark is Multialternative.

Ownership of Fund Shares. As of the date of this SAI, the Fund has not commenced operations. Accordingly, no Portfolio Manager beneficially owned any shares of the Fund.

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

Most of the portfolio transactions of the Funds will be the purchase or sale of securities of the Underlying Funds, which do not involve any commissions or other transaction fees. If a Fund invests in other securities, the Manager will follow the brokerage practices of the Underlying Funds described below.

Brokerage Provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreements. One of the duties of the Manager under the investment advisory agreement of each Fund and Underlying Fund is to arrange the portfolio transactions for those funds. The advisory agreement contains provisions relating to the employment of broker-dealers to effect the Funds' and Underlying Funds' portfolio transactions. The Manager is authorized '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 Funds and Underlying Funds to obtain, at reasonable expense, the "best execution" of the Funds' and Underlying Funds' 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, the Manager 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 each Fund and Underlying Fund as established by its Board of Trustees.

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

Brokerage Practices Followed by the Manager. The Manager allocates brokerage for each Fund and Underlying Fund subject to the provisions of the Fund's and Underlying Fund's 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.

Other accounts advised by the Manager have investment policies similar to those of a Fund or an Underlying Fund. Those other accounts may purchase or sell the same securities as a Fund or an Underlying Fund at the same time as a Fund or an Underlying 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 (and the Funds' and Underlying Funds' Boards of Trustees have approved) procedures that permit the Funds and Underlying Funds to direct portfolio securities transactions to brokers or dealers that also promote or sell shares of the Funds and Underlying Funds, subject to the "best execution" considerations discussed above. Those procedures are designed to prevent: (1) the Manager's personnel who effect a Fund or an Underlying Fund's portfolio transactions from taking into account a broker's or dealer's promotion or sales of the Fund's and Underlying Fund's shares when allocating those portfolio transactions, and (2) the Funds and Underlying Funds, the Manager and the Distributor from entering into agreements or understandings under which the Manager directs or is expected to direct a Fund's or an Underlying Funds' 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 Funds' or Underlying Funds' shares or the shares of any of the other Oppenheimer funds.

The Funds' and Underlying Funds' investment advisory agreements permit the Manager to allocate brokerage for research
services. The research services provided by a particular broker may be useful both to a Fund or an Underlying 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 of a Fund or an Underlying Fund 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 of a Fund or an Underlying Fund 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 a Fund's or an Underlying Fund's portfolio or are being considered for purchase.

The Manager provides information to the Funds' and Underlying Funds' Boards 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.

Because the Fund is new and has not completed its first fiscal year, no brokerage fees were paid to any broker during the last three years.

Distribution and Service Arrangements

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 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.

Because the Fund is new and has not yet completed its first fiscal year, no compensation was paid to the Distributor during the last three years.

Distribution and Service (12b-1) Plans. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares and Distribution and Service Plans for 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, including a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan. The Independent Trustees/Directors are not "interested persons" of the Fund and do not have any direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the distribution plan or any agreement under the plan, in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act.

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.

A plan continues in effect from year to year only if the Fund's Board and its Independent Trustees/Directors vote annually to approve its continuance at an in person meeting called for that purpose. A plan may be terminated at any time by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors or by the vote of the holders of a "majority" (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the outstanding shares of the Class of shares to which it applies.

The Board and the Independent Trustees/Directors must approve all material amendments to a plan. An amendment to materially increase the amount of payments to be made under a plan must also be approved by shareholders of any affected class.

At least quarterly while the plans are in effect, the Treasurer of the Fund will provide the Board with separate written reports on the plans for its review. The reports will 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/Directors.

While each plan is in effect, the Independent Trustees/Directors of the Fund will select and nominate any other Independent Trustees/Directors. This does not prevent the involvement of others in the selection and nomination process as long as the final decision is made by a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors.

No payment will be made to any recipient for any share class unless, during the applicable period, the aggregate net asset value of Fund shares of the class held by the recipient (for itself and its customers) exceeds a minimum amount that may be set by a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors from time to time.

Class A Service Plan. 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 and account maintenance services they provide for their customers who hold Class A shares. Those services may include answering customer inquiries about the Fund, assisting in establishing and maintaining Fund accounts, 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 the Fund to reimburse the Distributor at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the Class A average net assets. The Distributor makes payments to recipients periodically at an annual rate of not more than 0.25% of the Class A average net assets held in the accounts of the recipient or it customers.

The Distributor does not receive or retain the service fee for Class A share accounts for which the Distributor is listed as the broker-dealer of record. While the plan permits the Board to authorize payments to the Distributor to reimburse itself for those services, the Board has not yet done so.

Class C and Class N Distribution and Service Plans. Under the Class C and Class N Distribution and Service Plans (each a "Plan" and together the "Plans"), the Fund pays the asset-based sales charge (the "distribution fee") to the Distributor for its services in distributing Class C and Class N shares. The distribution fee allows investors to buy Class C and Class N shares without a front-end sales charge, while allowing the Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those shares. The Distributor may use the service fees it receives under the Plans to pay recipients for providing services similar to the services provided under the Class A service plan, described above.

Payments under the Plans are made in recognition that the Distributor:

pays sales concessions to authorized brokers and dealers at the time of sale or as an ongoing concession,

pays the service fees in advance or periodically, as described below,

may finance payment of sales concessions or the advance of the service fee payments to recipients under the Plans, or may provide such financing from its own resources or from the resources of an affiliate,

employs personnel to support distribution of Class B, Class C and Class N shares,

bears the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses (other than those furnished to current shareholders) and certain other distribution expenses,

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,

receives payments under the Plans consistent with the service and distribution fees paid by other non-proprietary funds that charge 12b-1 fees,

may use the payments under the Plan to include the Fund in various third-party distribution programs that might increase sales of Fund shares,

may experience increased difficulty selling the Fund's shares if Plan payments were discontinued, because most competitor funds have plans that pay dealers as much or more for distribution services than the amounts currently being paid by the Fund, and

may not be able to continue providing the same quality of distribution efforts and services, or to obtain such services from brokers and dealers, if Plan payments were discontinued.

Distribution fees on Class N shares are generally retained by the Distributor. If a dealer has a special agreement with the Distributor, the Distributor may pay the Class N distribution fees to recipients periodically in lieu of paying the sales concession in advance at the time of purchase. The Distributor retains the distribution fee on Class C shares during the first year and then pays it as an ongoing concession to recipients.

Service fees for the first year after Class C and Class N shares are purchased, are generally paid to recipients in advance. After the first year, the Distributor pays the service fees to recipients periodically. Under the Plans, the Distributor is permitted to retain the service fees or to pay recipients the service fee on a periodic basis, without payment in advance. If a recipient has a special agreement with the Distributor, the Distributor may pay the Class C or Class N service fees to recipients periodically in lieu of paying the first year fee in advance. If Class C or Class N shares are redeemed during the first year after their purchase, a recipient of service fees on those shares will be obligated to repay a pro rata portion of the advance payment to the Distributor. Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for the advance service fee payment.

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 distribution fees paid on Class C and Class N shares, but does not retain any service fees as to the assets represented by that account.

Each Plan provides for the Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate, whether the Distributor's distribution expenses for a period are more or less than the amounts paid by the Fund under the relevant Plan. During a calendar year, the Distributor's actual expenses in selling Class C and Class N shares may be more than the distribution fees paid to the Distributor under the Plans and the CDSC's collected on redeemed shares. Those excess expenses are carried over on the Distributor's books and may be recouped from distribution fees paid by the Fund in future years. However, the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to cap the amount that may be carried over from year to year and recouped for certain categories of expenses at 0.70% of annual gross sales of shares of the Fund. The capped expenses under the Plans are (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. If those categories of expenses exceed the capped amount, the Distributor would bear the excess costs. If a Plan were to be terminated by the Fund, the Fund's Board may allow the Fund to continue payments of the distribution fees to the Distributor for its services in distributing shares before the Plan was terminated.

All payments under the Plans are subject to the limitations imposed by the Conduct Rules of FINRA on payments of distribution and service fees.

Payments to Financial Intermediaries

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

Types of payments to financial intermediaries may include, without limitation, all or portions of the following:

Payments made by the Fund, or by an investor buying or selling shares of the Fund, including:

an initial front-end sales charge, all or a portion of which is payable by the Distributor to financial intermediaries (see the "More About Your Account" section in the Prospectus);

ongoing asset-based distribution and/or service fees (described in the section "Distribution and Service Arrangements - Distribution and Service (12b-1) Plans" above);

shareholder servicing expenses that are paid from Fund assets to reimburse the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor for Fund expenses they incur for providing omnibus accounting, recordkeeping, networking, sub-transfer agency or other administrative or shareholder services (including retirement plan and 529 plan administrative services fees).

In addition, the Sub-Adviser or Distributor may, at their discretion, make the following types of payments from their own respective resources, which may include profits the Sub-Adviser derives from investment advisory fees paid by the Fund. Payments are made based on the guidelines established by the Sub-Adviser and Distributor, subject to applicable law. These payments are often referred to as "revenue sharing" payments, and may include:

compensation for marketing support, support provided in offering shares in the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds through certain trading platforms and programs, and transaction processing or other services;

other compensation, to the extent the payment is not prohibited by law or by any self-regulatory agency, such as FINRA.

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

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

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;

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;

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; or

firm support, such as business planning assistance, advertising, or educating a financial intermediary's sales personnel about the Oppenheimer funds and shareholder financial planning needs.

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 payments may exceed the cost of providing the services. 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 SAI. You should ask your financial intermediary for information about any payments it receives from the Fund, the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor and any services it provides, as well as the fees and commissions it charges.

For the year ended December 31, 2011, the following financial intermediaries and/or their affiliates (which in some cases are broker-dealers) offered shares of the Oppenheimer funds and received revenue sharing or similar distribution-related payments (of at least $5,000) from the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor for marketing or program support:

About Your Account

The Fund's Prospectus describes how to buy, sell and exchange shares of the Fund and certain other Oppenheimer funds. The information below provides further details about the Fund's policies regarding those share transactions. It should be read in conjunction with the information in the Prospectus. Appendix A of this SAI provides 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 investors and certain types of purchases or redemptions.

Determination of Net Asset Value Per Share. The net asset value ("NAV") per share for each class of shares of the Fund is determined 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 NAV is determined as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on each day that the NYSE is open. 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 SAI 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, Washington's Birthday (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 that 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 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 close of the principal market on which a security is traded, 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 learns of the event and determines that the event is likely to cause a material change in the value of the security. The Board has adopted valuation procedures for the Fund and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for fair value determinations under those procedures to the Manager's "Valuation Committee". Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval, ratification and confirmation by the Board at its next scheduled meeting after the fair valuations are determined.

Securities Valuation. The Board of each Fund and of each Underlying Fund has established procedures for the valuation of the respective fund's securities. In general those procedures are as follows:

Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange are valued as follows:

if "last sale" information is regularly reported on the principal exchange on which a security is traded, it is valued at the last reported sale price on that day, or
if "last sale" information is not available on a valuation date, the security is 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 "last sale" information is not available on a valuation date, and the last reported sale price for the security preceding the valuation date is not within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked" prices on the valuation date, the security is valued at the closing "bid" price on the valuation date.

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

at the last sale price available to the pricing service approved by the Board, or
at the last sale price obtained by the Manager from the report of the principal exchange on which the security is traded at its last trading session on or immediately before the valuation date, or
at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices obtained from the principal exchange on which the security is traded, or
on the basis of reasonable inquiry, from two market makers in the security.

Long-term debt securities having a remaining maturity of more than 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 or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.

The following securities are valued at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices determined by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:

debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when issued,
debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60 days or less.

The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts:

money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a maturity of less than 397 days when issued and that have a remaining maturity of 60 days or less, and
debt instruments held by a money market fund that have a remaining maturity of 397 days or less.

Securities (including restricted securities) not having readily-available market quotations are valued at fair value determined under the Board's procedures. If the Manager is unable to locate two market makers willing to give quotes, a security may be priced at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices provided by a single active market maker, or 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, the Manager may use pricing services approved by the Board when last sale information is not generally available. 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 valuations. That monitoring may include comparing prices used for portfolio valuation to the actual sale prices of selected securities.

Foreign currency, including forward contracts, is valued and securities that are denominated in foreign currency are converted to U.S. dollars, using the closing prices in the New York foreign exchange market or that are provided to the Manager by a bank, dealer or pricing service that the Manager has determined to be reliable.

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 or by the Manager. If there were no sales on the valuation date, those investments are 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 the last sale price on the preceding trading day is not within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked" prices on the principal exchange on the valuation date, the value shall be the closing "bid" price. If the put, call or future is not traded on an exchange, it shall be valued at the mean between "bid" and "asked" prices obtained by the Manager from two active market makers. In certain cases the "bid" price may be used if no "asked" price is available.

When an option is sold, an amount equal to the premium received is included in the applicable 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 gain on investments, if a call or put sold is exercised, the proceeds are increased by the premium received. If a call or put sold expires, there is a resulting gain in the amount of the premium. If a 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 a fund exercises a put it holds, the amount it receives on its sale of the underlying investment is reduced by the amount of the premium that was paid.

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

For calculating the Fund's net asset value, dividends and distributions, the Fund differentiates between 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. Those expenses are first allocated based on the percentage of the Fund's total assets that is represented by the assets of each share class. Such general expenses include management fees, legal, bookkeeping and audit fees, Board compensation, custodian expenses, share issuance costs, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and non-recurring expenses, such as litigation costs. Then the expenses allocated to a share class are allotted equally to each outstanding share within a given class.

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.

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 each class of shares and the dividends payable on each class of shares will be reduced by incremental expenses borne solely by that class. Those expenses include the asset-based sales charges to which some share classes 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 of the Oppenheimer funds normally are sold subject to an initial sales charge (except Oppenheimer Cash Reserves, Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund, Oppenheimer Money Market Fund and Oppenheimer Short Duration Fund). The purpose of the deferred sales charge and asset-based sales charge that are applicable to some other share classes is the same as that of the initial sales charge on Class A shares of many of the Oppenheimer funds - to compensate the Distributor and brokers, dealers and financial institutions that sell shares of those funds. A salesperson who is entitled to receive compensation from his or her firm for selling Fund shares of the Oppenheimer funds may receive different levels of compensation for selling one class of shares rather than another.

Class A Sales Charges Reductions and Waivers. There is an initial sales charge on the purchase of Class A shares of each of the Oppenheimer funds except for the money market funds (under certain circumstances described in this SAI, redemption proceeds of certain money market fund shares may be subject to a CDSC). As discussed in the Prospectus, a reduced initial sales charge rate may be obtained for certain share purchases because of the reduced sales efforts and reduction in expenses realized by the Distributor, dealers or brokers in making such sales. Sales charge waivers may apply in certain other circumstances because the Distributor or dealer or broker incurs little or no selling expenses. Appendix A to this SAI includes additional information regarding certain of these sales charge reductions and waivers.

A reduced sales charge rate may be obtained for Class A shares under a Right of Accumulation or Letter of Intent because of the reduction in sales effort and expenses to the Distributor, dealers or brokers for those sales.

Letter of Intent. Under a Letter of Intent (a "Letter"), you may be able to reduce the initial sales charge rate that applies to your Class A share purchases of the Fund if you purchase Class A or Class C shares of the Fund or Class A, Class B, Class C shares of other Oppenheimer funds or Class A, Class B, Class C, Class G and Class H units of 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 any purchases that are 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 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 subsequent eligible purchases during the Letter period cause the amount of total eligible purchases to 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 on those subsequent purchases will be charged at the lower rate as permitted under the Fund's Right of Accumulation policy.

By establishing a Letter, the investor agrees to be bound by the terms of the Prospectus, this SAI 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.

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 "The OppenheimerFunds Exchange Privilege"), 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.

Class A Shares Purchased with Proceeds from Certain Retirement Plans. Class A shares of the Fund may be purchased at net asset value 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. No sales concessions will be paid to the broker-dealer of record on sales of such Class A shares, whether or not they are subject to a CDSC as described in the Prospectus. Additionally, no concession will 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 a retirement plan for more than 18 months.

Share Certificates. 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.

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.

AccountLink. Shares purchased through AccountLink will be purchased at the net asset value calculated on the same regular business day if the Distributor is instructed to initiate the Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfer to buy the shares before the close of the NYSE. The NYSE normally closes at 4:00 p.m., but may close earlier on certain days. If the Distributor is instructed to initiate the ACH transfer after the close of the NYSE, the shares will be purchased on the next regular business day.

Dividends will begin to accrue on the shares purchased through the ACH system on the next regular business day after the purchase date. If the proceeds of an 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.

The minimum purchase through AccountLink is generally $50, however for accounts established prior to November 1, 2002 the minimum purchase is $25.

Asset Builder Plans. As indicated in the Prospectus, you normally must establish your Fund account with $1,000 or more. However, you can open a Fund account for as little as $500 if you establish an Asset Builder Plan at the time of your initial share purchase to automatically purchase additional shares directly from a bank account.

An Asset Builder Plan is available only if your bank is an ACH member and you establish AccountLink. Under an Asset Builder Plan, payments to purchase shares of the Fund will be debited from your bank account automatically. Normally the debit will be made two business days prior to the investment dates you select on your application. Neither the Distributor, the Transfer Agent nor the Fund will be responsible for any delays in purchasing shares that result from delays in ACH transmissions.

To establish an Asset Builder Plan at the time you initially purchase Fund shares, complete the "Asset Builder Plan" information on the Account Application. To establish an Asset Builder Plan for an existing account, use the Asset Builder Enrollment Form. The Account Application and the Asset Builder Enrollment Form are available by contacting the Distributor or may be downloaded from our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com. Before you establish a new Fund account under the Asset Builder Plan, you should obtain a prospectus of the selected Fund and read it carefully.

You may change the amount of your Asset Builder payment or you can terminate your 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 minimum additional purchase under an Asset Builder Plan is $50, except that for Asset Builder Plans established prior to November 1, 2002, the minimum additional purchase is $25. Shares purchased by Asset Builder Plan payments are subject to the redemption restrictions for recent purchases described in the Prospectus. An Asset Builder Plan may not be used to buy shares for OppenheimerFunds employer-sponsored qualified retirement accounts. The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering Asset Builder Plans at any time without prior notice.

Retirement Plans. Certain types of retirement plans are entitled to purchase shares of the Fund without sales charges or at reduced sales charge rates, as described in Appendix A to this SAI.

Certain special sales charge arrangements described in Appendix A apply to retirement plans whose records are maintained on a daily valuation basis by Bank of America Merrill Lynch ("Merrill Lynch") or an independent record keeper that has a contract or special arrangement with Merrill Lynch. The amount of assets the plan had in applicable investments on the date the plan sponsor signed the Merrill Lynch record keeping service agreement determines which share classes are available for purchase. If the plan had less than $1 million in such assets , then it may purchase only Class C shares. If the plan had $1 million or more but less than $5 million in such assets it may purchase only Class N shares. If the plan had $5 million or more in such assets it may purchase only Class A shares.

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.

How to Sell Shares

Receiving Redemption Proceeds by Federal Funds Wire. The Fund would normally authorize a Federal Funds wire of redemption proceeds to be made on its next regular business day following the redemption. A Federal Funds wire may be delayed if the Fund's custodian bank is not open for business on that day. In that case, the wire will not be transmitted until the next business day on which the bank and the Fund are both open for business. No dividends will be paid on the proceeds of redeemed shares awaiting transfer by Federal Funds wire.

Redeeming Shares Through Brokers or Dealers. The Distributor is the Fund's agent to repurchase its shares from authorized brokers or dealers 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 next net asset value computed after the Distributor or the broker or dealer receives the order. A repurchase will be processed at that day's net asset value if the order was received by the broker or dealer from its customer prior to the time the close of the NYSE. Normally, the NYSE closes at 4:00 p.m., but may do so earlier on some days.

For accounts redeemed through a broker-dealer, payment will ordinarily be made within three business days after the shares are redeemed. However, the Distributor must receive the required redemption documents in proper form, with the signature(s) of the registered shareholder(s) guaranteed as described in the Prospectus.

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

If shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder would generally receive shares of one or more of the Underlying Funds. Those shares would be subject to the applicable Underlying Fund's normal fees, sales charges, and redemption and exchange policies. If a redemption in kind were made in other types of securities, the shareholder might incur brokerage or other costs in selling the securities for cash. The Funds will value securities used to pay redemptions in kind using the same method the Funds and the Underlying Funds use to value their 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.

The Fund has elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under that rule, redemptions by a shareholder, of up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets of the Fund during any 90-day period, must be redeemed solely in cash.

Distributions From Retirement Plans. Participants in OppenheimerFunds-sponsored pension or profit-sharing plans (other than self-employed plan sponsors), whose shares of the Fund are held in the name of the plan or its fiduciary, may not request redemption of their accounts directly. The plan administrator or fiduciary must submit the request.

Requests for distributions from OppenheimerFunds-sponsored IRA's, SEP-IRA's, SIMPLE IRA's, 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 on the back cover of this SAI. The request must:

state the reason for the distribution;
if the distribution is premature, state the owner's awareness of tax penalties; and
conform to the requirements of the plan and the Fund's other redemption requirements.

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 for determining whether a distribution satisfies the conditions of applicable tax laws and they will not be responsible for any tax penalties assessed in connection with a distribution.

Automatic Withdrawal Plans. Under an Automatic Withdrawal Plan, investors who own Fund shares can authorize the Transfer Agent to redeem shares automatically on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The minimum periodic redemption amount under an Automatic Withdrawal Plan is $50. Shareholders having AccountLink privileges may have Automatic Withdrawal Plan payments deposited to their designated bank account. Payments may also be made by check, payable to all shareholders of record and sent to the address of record for the account. Automatic withdrawals may be requested by telephone for amounts up to $1,500 per month if the payments are to be made by checks sent to the address of record for the account. Telephone requests are not available if the address on the account has been changed within the prior 15 days.

Fund shares will be redeemed as necessary to meet the requested withdrawal payments. Shares will be redeemed at the net asset value per share determined on the redemption date, which is normally three business days prior to the payment receipt date requested by the shareholder. The Fund cannot guarantee receipt of a payment on the date requested, however. 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 on 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.

Because of the sales charge assessed on Class A share purchases, shareholders should usually not make additional Class A share purchases while participating in an Automatic Withdrawal Plan. A shareholder whose account is subject to a CDSC should usually not establish an automatic withdrawal plan because of the imposition of the CDSC on the withdrawals. If a CDSC does apply to a redemption, the amount of the check or payment will be reduced accordingly. Distributions of capital gains from accounts subject to an Automatic Withdrawal Plan must be reinvested in Fund shares. Dividends on shares held in the account may be paid in cash or reinvested. Required minimum distributions from OppenheimerFunds-sponsored retirement plans may not be arranged on this basis.

The shareholder may change the amount, the payment interval, the address to which checks are to be mailed, the designated bank account for AccountLink payments or may terminate a plan at any time by writing to the Transfer Agent. A signature guarantee may be required for certain changes. The requested change will usually be put into effect approximately two weeks after such notification is received. The shareholder may redeem all or any part of the shares in the account by written notice to the Transfer Agent. That notice must be in proper form in accordance with the requirements in the then-current Fund Prospectus.

The Transfer Agent will administer the Automatic Withdrawal Plan as agent for the shareholder(s) who executed the plan authorization and application submitted to the Transfer Agent. Neither the Fund nor the Transfer Agent shall incur any liability for any action taken or not taken by the Transfer Agent in good faith to administer the plan. Any share certificates must be surrendered unendorsed to the Transfer Agent with the plan application to be eligible for automatic withdrawal payments. If the Transfer Agent ceases to act as transfer agent for the Fund, the shareholder will be deemed to have appointed any successor transfer agent to act as agent in administering the plan.

The Transfer Agent will terminate a plan upon its receipt of evidence, satisfactory to it, that the shareholder has died or is legally incapacitated. The Fund may also give directions to the Transfer Agent to terminate a plan. Shares that have not been redeemed at the time a plan is terminated will be held in an account in the name of the shareholder. Share certificates will not be issued for any such shares and all dividends will be reinvested in the account unless and until different instructions are received, in proper form, from the shareholder, his or her executor or guardian, or another authorized person.

The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering these plans at any time without prior notice. By requesting an Automatic Withdrawal Plan, the shareholder agrees to the terms and conditions that apply to such plans. 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.

Transfers of Shares. A shareholder will not be required to pay a CDSC when Fund shares are transferred to registration in the name of another person or entity. The transfer may occur 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 CDSC are transferred, the CDSC will continue to apply to the transferred shares and will be calculated as if the transferee had acquired the shares in the same manner and at the same time as the transferring shareholder.

If less than all of the shares held in an account are transferred, and some but not all shares in the account would be subject to a CDSC if redeemed at that time, the priorities for the imposition of the CDSC described in the Prospectus will be followed in determining the order in which the shares are transferred.

Minimum Account Balance. Except for Class I shares, the minimum account balance is $500. The minimum account balance for Class I shares is $2.5 million, excluding accounts for which the minimum initial investment was waived.

Minimum Balance Fee. A $12 annual "Minimum Balance Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a share balance of less than $500, except for Class I share accounts. 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 Minimum Balance Fee. These exceptions are subject to change:

A fund account whose shares were acquired after September 30th of the prior year;

Accounts of shareholders who elect to access their account documents electronically via eDoc Direct (to access account documents electronically via eDocs Direct, please visit our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com and click the hyperlink "Sign Up for Electronic Document Delivery (eDocs Direct)" under the heading "I Want To," or call 1.888.470.0862 for instructions);

A fund account that has only certificated shares and has a balance below $500 and is being escheated;

Accounts of shareholders that are held by broker-dealers under the NSCC Fund/SERV system in Networking level 1 and 3 accounts;

Accounts holding certain Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds;

Omnibus accounts holding shares pursuant to the Pinnacle, Ascender, Custom Plus and Pension Alliance Retirement Plan programs;

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; and

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

Involuntary Redemptions. The Fund's Board has the right to involuntarily redeem shares held in any account, except for Class I share accounts, with an aggregate net asset value of less than $500. The Board may change the amount of the aggregate net asset value to which this involuntary redemption policy may apply. 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 within the last 12-month period. If the Board exercises this right, it may also determine the requirements for any notice to be given to the shareholders (but not less than 30 days). Alternatively, the Board may set requirements for the shareholder to increase the investment, or set other terms and conditions so that the shares would not be involuntarily redeemed.

If a Class I account falls below the $2.5 million minimum balance, the account may be involuntarily redeemed or converted into a Class Y share account. This policy does not apply to accounts for which the minimum initial investment is waived.

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 good faith compliance with those laws.

The Fund reserves the authority to modify the minimum balance policies in its discretion.

Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months after redeeming Class A shares, a shareholder may reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in Class A shares without a sales charge if:

An initial sales charge was paid on the redeemed Class A shares or a Class A CDSC was paid when the shares were redeemed.

The reinvestment may only be made in Class A shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds into which shares of the Fund are exchangeable, as described in "How to Exchange Shares" below. This privilege does not apply to any other share class or to purchases made through automatic investment options. The Fund may amend, suspend or cease offering this reinvestment privilege at any time for shares redeemed after the date of the amendment, suspension or cessation. The shareholder must request the reinvestment privilege from the Transfer Agent or his or her financial intermediary at the time of purchase.

Reinvestment will be at the next net asset value computed after the Transfer Agent receives the reinvestment order. 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 was 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 after the payment of the sales charge, in certain circumstances, the shareholder's basis in the shares of the Fund that were redeemed may not include the amount of the sales charge paid for purposes of determining the amount of gain or loss on the redemption. That would reduce the loss or increase the gain recognized from the redemption, however, the sales charge would be added to the basis of the shares acquired with the redemption proceeds.

How to Exchange Shares

Shares of the Fund (including shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or distributions from other Oppenheimer funds) may be exchanged for shares of certain other Oppenheimer funds at net asset value without the imposition of a sales charge, however a CDSC may apply to the acquired shares as described below. Shares of certain money market funds purchased without a sales charge may be exchanged for shares of other Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge upon payment of the sales charge. Exchanges into another Oppenheimer fund must meet any applicable minimum investment requirements of that fund.

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. The prospectus of each of the Oppenheimer funds indicates which share class or classes that fund offers and provides information about limitations on the purchase of particular share classes, as applicable for the particular fund. Shareholders that own more than one class of shares of the Fund must specify which class of shares they wish to exchange.

The different Oppenheimer funds that are available for exchange have different investment objectives, policies and risks. A shareholder should determine whether the fund selected is appropriate for his or her investment goals 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. Some of the tax consequences of reinvesting redemption proceeds are discussed in "Reinvestment Privilege," above. 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.

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 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, however that notice is not required in extraordinary circumstances.

How Exchanges Affect Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. If shares acquired by exchange are later redeemed within the CDSC holding period applicable to those acquired shares, the CDSC applicable to the share class of the fund you are exchanging into will apply to the acquired shares. This includes the redemption of shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves and Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. that were acquired by exchange.

When shares that are subject to a CDSC are exchanged, the priorities for the imposition of the CDSC described in "About Your Account" in the Prospectus will be followed in determining the order in which the shares are exchanged. Before exchanging shares, shareholders should consider how the exchange may affect any CDSC that might be imposed on the subsequent redemption of any remaining shares.

For circumstances in which a CDSC on shares acquired by exchange may be waived, see Appendix A "Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers."

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.

Automatic Exchange Plans. Under an Automatic Exchange Plan, shareholders can authorize the Transfer Agent to exchange shares of the Fund for shares of other Oppenheimer funds automatically on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The minimum amount that may be exchanged to each other fund account is $50. Instructions regarding the exchange amount, the selected fund(s) and the exchange interval should be provided on the OppenheimerFunds account application or by signature-guaranteed instructions. Any requested changes will usually be put into effect approximately two weeks after notification of a change is received. Exchanges made under these plans are subject to the restrictions that apply to exchanges as set forth in this SAI and in "The OppenheimerFunds Exchange Privilege" section in the Prospectus.

The Transfer Agent will administer the Automatic Exchange Plan as agent for the shareholder(s). Neither the Fund nor the Transfer Agent shall incur any liability for any action taken or not taken by the Transfer Agent in good faith to administer the plan. Any share certificates must be surrendered unendorsed to the Transfer Agent with the plan application to be eligible for automatic exchanges. If the Transfer Agent ceases to act as transfer agent for the Fund, the shareholder will be deemed to have appointed any successor transfer agent to act as agent in administering the plan.

The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering automatic exchanges at any time without prior notice. By requesting an Automatic Exchange Plan, the shareholder agrees to the terms and conditions that apply to such plans. These provisions may be amended from time to time and any amendments will automatically apply to existing Plans.

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

When you exchange some or all of your shares, any special features of your account that are available in the new fund (such as an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic Withdrawal Plan) will be applied to the new fund account unless you tell the Transfer Agent not to do so.

Shares that are subject to a restriction cited in the Prospectus or this SAI and shares covered by a share certificate that is not tendered will not be exchanged. If an exchange request includes such shares, only the shares available without restrictions will be exchanged.

Distributions and Taxes

Dividends and Other Distributions. The Fund does not have a fixed rate for dividends or other distributions ("distributions") and cannot assure the payment of any distributions. The distributions made by the Fund will vary depending on market conditions, the composition of the Fund's portfolio and Fund expenses. The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains at least annually, and may sometimes pay a special distribution near the end of the calendar year in order to comply with federal tax requirements.

Distributions are calculated in the same manner, at the same time, and on the same day for each class of shares but will normally differ in amount. Distributions on Class C and Class N shares are expected to be lower than distributions on Class A, Class Y and Class I shares because of the effect of the asset-based sales charge on Class C and Class N shares. Distributions are taxable to shareholders, as discussed below, 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.

Returned checks for the proceeds of redemptions are invested in shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. If a dividend check or a check representing an automatic withdrawal payment is returned to the Transfer Agent by the Postal Service as undeliverable, it will be reinvested in shares of the Fund. Reinvestments will be made as promptly as possible after the return of such checks to the Transfer Agent. 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.

Some of the Underlying Funds have no fixed dividend rate and there can be no assurance as to the payment of any dividends or the realization of any capital gains.

Taxes. The federal tax treatment of the Fund and distributions to shareholders 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 SAI is based on tax laws in effect on the date of the Prospectus and SAI. Those laws and regulations may be changed by legislative, judicial, or administrative action, sometimes with retroactive effect. State and local tax treatment may differ from the treatment under the Internal Revenue Code as described below.

Before purchasing Fund shares, investors are urged to consult their tax advisers with reference to their own particular tax circumstances as well as the consequences of federal, state, local and any other jurisdiction's tax rules affecting an investment in the Fund.

Certain of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests have elected to be taxed as regulated investment companies. Generally, the character of the income or capital gains that the Fund receives from these Underlying Funds will pass through to the Fund shareholders as long as the Fund and such Underlying Funds continue to qualify as regulated investment companies. However, short-term capital gains received from the Underlying Funds will be taxed as ordinary income to the Fund and therefore may not be offset by long-term capital losses of the Fund. This will have the effect of increasing the amount of ordinary income the Fund must distribute to shareholders. Distributions from Underlying Funds that are taxed as C corporations will be treated as ordinary dividends (generally eligible for the dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders and for the special maximum tax rate on "qualified dividend income" for individual and non-corporate shareholders as described below), non-taxable return of capital, or capital gain.

Qualification and Taxation as a Regulated Investment Company. The Fund has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. As long as the Fund qualifies as a RIC, the Fund may deduct the amount of investment company taxable income and net capital gains that it distributes to its shareholders, thereby eliminating Fund-level corporate income tax that would otherwise be imposed on such income. Qualification as a RIC also allows the Fund, under certain conditions, to characterize the distributions made to its shareholders as composed of specific types of tax-favored income such as corporate dividends, capital gains and tax-exempt interest.

Even though the Fund expects to continue to qualify as a RIC, to the extent that it distributes less than all of its income, the Fund may still be subject to a corporate income tax and an excise tax. In addition, any investment income received from a foreign source may be subject to foreign withholding taxes, although the rate of any such withholding tax may be reduced under an income tax treaty if the Fund qualifies for the benefits of the treaty. If possible, the Fund will operate so as to qualify for such reduced rates. Any foreign withholding taxes will reduce the Fund's income and capital gain. The Fund may also be subject to corporate income tax and a penalty on distributions or gains if the Fund invests in "passive foreign investment companies" (described below) even if those amounts are distributed to the Fund's shareholders.

Qualifying as a RIC. To qualify as a RIC, the Fund must be a domestic corporation that is either registered under the Investment Company Act as a management company or unit investment trust or is otherwise described in the Internal Revenue Code as having a specific status under the Investment Company Act. The Fund must also satisfy certain tests with respect to (i) the composition of its gross income, (ii) the composition of its assets and (iii) the amount of its dividend distributions.

Gross Income Test. To qualify as a RIC, the Fund must derive at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, certain payments with respect to loans of securities, gains from the sale or other disposition of securities or foreign currencies, and certain other income derived with respect to its business of investing in such securities or currencies (including, but not limited to, gains from options, futures or forward contracts), and net income derived from interests in certain "qualified publicly traded partnerships."

Asset Test. In addition, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, the Fund must satisfy two asset tests. First, at least 50% of the value of the Fund's assets must consist of U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, securities of other issuers ("Other Issuers") and cash or cash items (including receivables). The securities of an Other Issuer are not counted towards satisfying the 50% test if the Fund either invests more than 5% of the value of the Fund's assets in the securities of that Other Issuer or holds more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that Other Issuer. Second, no more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets may be invested in (1) the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. government securities and the securities of other RICs), (2) the securities of two or more issuers (other than the securities of other RICs) that the Fund controls and that are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses, or (3) the securities of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships. For purposes of these tests, obligations issued or guaranteed by certain agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government are treated as U.S. government securities.

Dividend Distributions Test. During the taxable year or, under specified circumstances, within 12 months after the close of the taxable year, the Fund must distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income for the taxable year, which is generally its net investment income and the excess of its net short-term capital gain minus its net long-term capital loss.

Failure to Qualify. If the Fund failed to qualify as a RIC, it would (unless certain cure provisions apply) then be unable to deduct from its taxable income the dividend distributions made to its shareholders and therefore those amounts would be subject to a Fund-level corporate income tax. In addition, the Fund would not be able to characterize the distributions made to its shareholders as anything other than ordinary corporate distributions. To the extent the Fund had "earnings and profits" (as determined for tax purposes), distributions to its shareholders would be taxable as ordinary dividend income. In the case of individuals, those distributions might qualify for the maximum 15% tax rate on dividend income (for taxable years beginning before 2013) and, in the case of corporations, they might qualify for the dividends-received deduction.

Portfolio Investments Subject to Special Tax Rules. The Underlying Funds may engage in transactions and investments that are subject to special tax rules under the Internal Revenue Code. These special tax rules may, among other things, affect the Underlying Fund's holding period in its investments, change the character of, or accelerate, the Underlying Fund's income, defer or disallow the Underlying Fund's deductions and losses, and compel the Underlying Fund to report as taxable income mere increases in the value of its assets. For example, the Underlying Fund may invest in foreign currencies or securities denominated in foreign currencies. Under certain circumstances losses from foreign securities could be capital losses but gains from foreign currencies are ordinary income. Because capital losses cannot be deducted against ordinary income, this mismatch in character may negatively affect the character and amount of the Underlying Fund's distributions. In addition, part of an "interest" payment from a high yield debt obligation may be characterized for tax purposes as a dividend and, therefore, eligible for the dividends-received deduction available to corporations.

Certain positions in the Underlying Fund's portfolio may have to be "marked-to-market" (that is, treated as if they were sold and repurchased on the last day of the Underlying Fund's taxable year). Such "deemed sales" under the mark-to-market rules may alter the character, amount and timing of distributions to shareholders by requiring the Underlying Fund to make distributions in order to satisfy the RIC dividend distributions test even though the deemed sales generate no cash. The Underlying Fund will monitor its transactions, and seek to make appropriate tax elections and appropriate entries in its books and records in order to reduce the effect of the mark-to-market rules while remaining qualified for treatment as a RIC.

Investments in Certain Underlying Funds that Invest in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs). The Fund can invest in Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund, which invests in real estate investment trusts ("REITs"), and Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP Alpha Fund and Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP Select 40 Fund, each of which invests in MLPs. Because of certain non-cash expenses, such as property depreciation in the case of REITs and accelerated depreciation in the case of Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP Alpha Fund and Oppenheimer SteelPath MLP Select 40 Fund, the cash flows of the REITs or MLPs in which those Underlying Funds invest may exceed their taxable income. The REITs and MLPs in which the Underlying Funds invest may distribute this excess cash to its investors, (including the Underlying Funds). This distribution of excess cash may be a return of capital. The Underlying Funds likewise may distribute the cash flows from the REIT or MLP investments to their shareholders, including the Fund. As a result, a portion of the Fund's distributions to its shareholders may be a return of capital, the tax treatment of which is described further below under "Taxation of Fund Distributions."

Passive Foreign Investment Companies. If the Underlying Fund invests in a "passive foreign investment company" ("PFIC"), then the Underlying Fund may be subject to special rules meant to discourage U.S. taxpayers from investing in foreign companies as a way of deferring taxable income. Under those rules, any income from certain PFIC distributions or the sale of PFIC shares is allocated to the current taxable year and to prior taxable years. Income allocated to the current year is treated as part of the year's ordinary income. Income allocated to a prior taxable year is taxed at the highest corporate rate for that year (regardless of the Underlying Fund's actual income or tax rate for that prior year). For each prior taxable year, the Underlying Fund must pay both the amount of tax so computed and a penalty that is calculated as if the amount of tax was due but unpaid for the prior taxable year. Liability for such taxes and penalties would reduce the investment return of the Underlying Fund.

If a PFIC is willing to provide the Underlying Fund with certain necessary reporting information annually (which PFICs frequently do not provide), the Underlying Fund may elect to treat a PFIC as a "qualified electing fund" ("QEF") and, in lieu of the tax consequences described above, the Underlying Fund would be required to include in each year's income its share of the ordinary earnings and net capital gains of the PFIC, even if they are not distributed to the Underlying Fund. Those amounts would be treated as taxable income for purposes of the 90% dividends distributions test mentioned above and the excise tax discussed below.

Alternatively, if the Underlying Fund invests in a PFIC, it may make a mark-to-market election that will result in the Underlying Fund being treated as if it had sold and repurchased its PFIC stock at the end of each year. In that case, the Underlying Fund would report any gains as ordinary income and would deduct any losses as ordinary losses to the extent of previously recognized gains. The election must be made separately for each PFIC owned by the Underlying Fund and, once made, would be effective for all subsequent taxable years, unless revoked with the consent of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). By making the election, the Underlying Fund might be able to mitigate the adverse tax consequences with respect to its ownership of shares in a PFIC, but in any particular year it could be required to recognize income in excess of the distributions it received from the PFIC and the proceeds from dispositions of the PFIC's stock. The amounts so included would be treated as taxable income for purposes of the 90% dividends distributions test and for excise tax purposes (discussed below).

Excise Tax on Regulated Investment Companies. Under the Internal Revenue Code, the Fund must pay an annual, non-deductible excise tax unless, by December 31st each year, it distributes (1) 98% of its taxable investment income earned from January 1 through December 31, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income realized in the period from November 1 of the prior year through October 31 of the current year and (3) undistributed amounts from prior years. It is presently anticipated that the Fund will meet these distribution requirements, although to do so the Fund might be required to liquidate portfolio investments in certain circumstances. In some years, the Board and the Manager may determine that it would be in the shareholders' best interests for the Fund to pay the excise tax on undistributed amounts rather than making the required level of distributions. In that event, the tax may reduce shareholder total returns from the Fund.

Taxation of Fund Distributions. The Fund anticipates distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable income and net capital gain for each taxable year. The Fund's distributions will be treated as dividends to the extent paid from the Fund's earnings and profits (as determined under the Internal Revenue Code). Distributions in excess of the Fund's earnings and profits will be treated as a return of capital to the extent of each shareholder's basis in his or her shares, and any remaining amounts will be treated as gain from the sale of those shares, as discussed below. Shareholders will be notified if at the end of the fiscal year, any part of an earlier distribution is re-characterized as a non-taxable return of capital. A reduction in the basis of shares could result in a higher taxable capital gain (or lower capital loss) on a subsequent sale or exchange of the shares.

Special Characteristics of Certain Distributions. Different types of Fund earnings may have different federal income tax characteristics, including different types of capital gains and different types of ordinary income. For example, if the Underlying Funds invest in stock, a portion of the Fund's ordinary income may be composed of dividends eligible for the dividends-received deduction or that qualify for the special maximum tax rate on "qualified dividend income" as described below. The Fund may also generate foreign tax credits. The Fund will allocate the tax characteristics of its earnings among its distributions as prescribed by the IRS. The percentage of each distribution that corresponds to a particular type of income will generally be based on how much of that income the Fund earns for the taxable year in accordance with the IRS rules, rather than how much of that income the Fund has earned at time of the distribution. Each type of income earned by the Fund will generally include corresponding distributions that it receives from Underlying Funds that are taxed as regulated investment companies, as well as its distributive share of any partnership in which it invests. Those percentages normally will be determined after the close of the Fund's taxable year. The Fund will provide a statement to shareholders shortly after the end of each year indicating the amount and character of distributions made during the preceding calendar year.

Distributions Derived from Dividends. If the Fund earns dividend income from U.S. corporations, for the Fund's corporate shareholders to claim the dividends-received deduction against the Fund's distributions, both the Fund and its corporate shareholders must satisfy special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. If a dividend the Fund receives on a stock held in its portfolio otherwise qualifies for the dividends-received deduction, the Fund still (1) must hold the stock for a minimum number of days during a specified period that includes the stock's ex-dividend date, (2) cannot enter into certain positions that reduce the risk of holding the stock and (3) cannot debt finance the stock. Similarly, distributions of otherwise qualifying dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction in the hands of a corporate shareholder of the Fund unless the corporate shareholder (1) holds the Fund's shares for at least 46 days during a specified period that includes the portfolio stock's ex-dividend date and (2) does not debt finance its investment in the Fund's shares. To the extent the Fund's distributions are derived from items such as option premiums, interest income, gains from the sale of securities, or dividends from foreign corporations, those distributions will not qualify for the dividends-received deduction.

If the Fund earns qualified dividend income, as discussed below, special rules may also apply to regular dividends paid to a non-corporate shareholder of the Fund during the shareholder's taxable years beginning before 2013 (unless extended by legislation). Provided that the shareholder receiving the dividend satisfies certain holding period and other requirements, those dividends may be subject to tax at the reduced rates generally applicable to long-term capital gains for individuals. Dividends subject to these special rules are not actually treated as capital gains, however. They are not included in the computation of the shareholder's net capital gain and generally cannot be offset by capital losses. For a taxable year of the Fund, (i) if 95% or more of the Fund's gross income is attributable to qualified dividend income (defined below), then the special maximum rate will apply to 100% of the regular dividends paid to the shareholder during such year and (ii) if less than 95% of the Fund's gross income is attributable to qualified dividend income, then the special maximum rate will only apply to the portion of the regular dividends reported by the Fund as qualified dividend income, which generally cannot exceed the ratio that the Fund's qualified dividend income bears to its gross income. Gross income, for these purposes, does not include gains attributable to the sale or other disposition of stocks and securities, except to the extent the net short-term capital gain from such sales and dispositions exceeds the net long-term capital loss from such sales and dispositions.

"Qualified dividend income" generally means dividends received by the Fund with respect to the stock of a U.S. corporation or qualified foreign corporation. It also includes dividends received with respect to the stock of certain foreign corporations. In each case, however, the Fund must hold the stock for a minimum number of days during a specified period that includes the stock's ex-dividend date and cannot enter into certain positions that reduce the risk of holding the stock. Qualified dividend income does not include "payments in lieu of dividends" received in securities lending transactions or dividends received from a real estate investment trust ("REIT") or another RIC, except to the extent such dividends were paid from qualified dividend income received and reported by such REIT or RIC. If a shareholder elects to treat Fund dividends as investment income for purposes of the limitation on the deductibility of investment interest, such dividends will not be treated as qualified dividend income.

Ordinary Income Dividends. Distributions from income earned by the Fund from one or more of the following sources will be treated as ordinary income to the shareholder:

certain taxable investments (such as certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, commercial paper and obligations of the U.S. government, or its agencies and instrumentalities) or from bonds or other debt obligations;

income from loans of portfolio securities;

income or gains from options or futures;

any net short-term capital gain; and

any market discount accrual on tax-exempt bonds.

Capital Gain Distributions. The Fund may either retain or distribute to shareholders its net capital gain (the excess of net long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss). Currently, the Fund intends to distribute these gains. Distributed net capital gain that is properly reported will be taxable to the Fund's shareholders as long-term capital gain. The amount of distributions reported as net capital gain will be reported to shareholders shortly after the end of each year. Such treatment will apply no matter how long the shareholder has held Fund shares and even if the gain was recognized by the Fund before the shareholder acquired Fund shares.

If the Fund elects to retain all or a portion of its net capital gain for a taxable year, the Fund will be subject to tax on such gain at the highest corporate tax rate. If the Fund so elects, each shareholder of record on the last day of such taxable year will be informed of his or her portion of both the gain and the tax paid, will be required to report the gain as long-term capital gain, will be able to claim the tax paid as a refundable credit, and will increase the basis of his or her shares by the amount of the capital gain reported minus the tax credit.

3.8% Medicare Tax. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, an additional 3.8% tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person's "modified adjusted gross income" (in the case of an individual) or "adjusted gross income" (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds a threshold amount.

Foreign Source Income. Investment income that the Fund or Underlying Funds may receive from sources within foreign countries may be subject to foreign taxes withheld at the source. In the case of an Underlying Fund that is taxed as a regulated investment company, if more than 50% of the value of the Underlying Fund's total assets at the close of any taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations, the Underlying Fund may elect to treat any foreign income and withholding taxes it pays as having been paid by its shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as long as the Underlying Fund continues to qualify as a RIC. If an Underlying Fund makes such an election, the Fund may also make an election with respect to foreign taxes treated as paid by the Fund. If the Fund makes that election, the amount of foreign income taxes paid by the Fund will be included in the income of its shareholders and each shareholder will be entitled (subject to certain limitations) to either credit the amount against the shareholder's U.S. federal income tax due, or deduct the amount from his or her U.S. taxable income. If the Underlying Funds have investments in foreign securities, the Fund may qualify for and make this election in some, but not necessarily all, of its taxable years.

Shortly after any year for which it makes such an election, the Fund will report to its shareholders the amount per share of such foreign tax that must be included in each shareholder's gross income and the amount that will be available for deduction or credit. In general, a shareholder may elect each year whether to claim deductions or credits for foreign taxes. However, no deductions for foreign taxes may be claimed by a non-corporate shareholder who does not itemize deductions. If a shareholder elects to credit foreign taxes, the amount of credit that may be claimed in any year cannot exceed the same proportion of the U.S. tax against which such credit is taken as the shareholder's taxable income from foreign sources bears to his or her entire taxable income, unless the shareholder is an individual all of whose gross income from non-U.S. sources is qualified passive income and whose creditable foreign taxes for the taxable year do not exceed $300 ($600 for a joint return).

As a general rule, if the Fund has made the appropriate election, a shareholder may treat as foreign source income the portion of any dividend paid by the Fund which represents income derived from sources within foreign countries, as well as the shareholder's proportionate share of the taxes paid to those countries. Capital gains realized by the Fund on the sale of foreign securities and other foreign currency gains of the Fund are considered to be U.S.-source income and, therefore, any portion of the tax credit passed through to shareholders that is attributable to such gains or distributions might not be usable by a shareholder who does not have other foreign source income.

Tax Consequences of Share Redemptions. If all or a portion of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is redeemed, the shareholder will generally recognize a gain or loss on the redeemed shares equal to the difference between the proceeds of the redeemed shares and the shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the shares. In general, any gain or loss from the redemption of shares of the Fund will be considered capital gain or loss if the shares were held as a capital asset and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the shares were held for more than one year. Any capital loss arising from the redemption of shares held for six months or less, however, 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. There are limits on the deductibility of capital losses in any year.

All or a portion of any loss on redeemed shares may be disallowed if the shareholder purchases other shares of the Fund within 30 days before or after the redemption (including purchases through the reinvestment of dividends). In that case, the basis of the acquired shares will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. If a shareholder exercises the exchange privilege within 90 days after acquiring Fund shares, and no later than January 31 of the following calendar year, in certain circumstances, any loss that the shareholder recognizes on the exchange will be reduced, or any gain will be increased, to the extent that any sales charge paid on the exchanged shares reduces any charges the shareholder would have incurred on the purchase of the new shares in the absence of the exchange privilege. Such sales charge will be treated as an amount paid for the new shares.

Backup Withholding. The Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold 28% (currently scheduled to increase to 31% after 2012) of ordinary income dividends, capital gain 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 properly the receipt of interest or dividend income, 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 is identified in reports mailed to shareholders after the end of each calendar year with a copy sent to the IRS. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amount withheld generally may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a shareholder's federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely provided to the IRS.

Taxation of U.S. Tax-Exempt Shareholders. A tax-exempt shareholder could recognize unrelated business taxable income ("UBTI") by virtue of its investment in the Fund if shares in the Fund constitute debt-financed property in the hands of the tax-exempt shareholder or if the Fund recognizes "excess inclusion income" and the amount of such income exceeds the Fund's investment company taxable income (after taking into account deductions for dividends paid by the Fund). The Fund could recognize excess inclusion income with respect to its indirect investments in REITs that hold residual interests in real estate mortgage conduits or which are, or have certain wholly-owned subsidiaries that are, taxable mortgage pools. Tax-exempt shareholders, including in particular charitable remainder trusts, are urged to consult their tax advisers with respect to the particular consequences of an investment in the Fund.

Taxation of Foreign Shareholders. Under the Internal Revenue Code, taxation of a foreign shareholder depends primarily on whether the foreign shareholder's income from the Fund is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business. A "foreign shareholder" includes, but is not limited to, a nonresident alien individual, a foreign trust, a foreign estate, a foreign corporation, or a foreign partnership.

If a foreign shareholder fails to provide a properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status, the Fund will be required to withhold U.S. tax on ordinary income dividends, capital gains distributions and the proceeds of the redemption of shares. Provided the Fund obtains a proper certification of foreign status, ordinary income dividends that are paid by the Fund to foreign shareholders and that are not "effectively connected income," will be subject to a U.S. withholding tax. The tax rate may be reduced if the foreign person's country of residence has an income tax treaty with the United States allowing for a reduced tax rate on ordinary income dividends paid by the Fund. If the ordinary income dividends from the Fund are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign shareholder may claim an exemption from the U.S. withholding tax described above provided the Fund obtains a properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status. Any tax withheld by the Fund is remitted to the U.S. Treasury and all income and any tax withheld is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in the early part of each year with a copy sent to the IRS. Capital gain dividends are not subject to U.S. withholding tax unless the recipient is a nonresident alien who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which the dividends are received. A foreign individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more generally loses his or her status as a nonresident alien.

If future legislation extends expired tax provisions that applied to taxable years of regulated investment companies beginning before January 1, 2012, properly reported dividends will generally be exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax on foreign persons provided such dividends (i) are derived from the Fund's "qualified net interest income" (generally, the Fund's U.S. source interest income, other than certain contingent interest and interest from obligations of a corporation or partnership in which the Fund is a 10% or greater shareholder, reduced by expenses that are allocable to such income) or (ii) are derived from the Fund's "qualified short-term capital gains" (generally, the excess of the Fund's net short-term capital gain over the Fund's net long-term capital loss for such taxable year). In order to qualify for this exemption from withholding, a shareholder that is a foreign person must comply with applicable certification requirements relating to its non-U.S. status. However, depending on its circumstances, the Fund may report some, all, or none of its potentially eligible dividends as interest-related dividends or as short-term capital gain dividends, and/or treat such dividends, in whole or in part, as ineligible for this exemption from withholding on foreign persons. In the case of shares held through an intermediary, the intermediary may withhold even if the Fund reports the payment as qualified net interest income or qualified short-term capital gain. Shareholders that are foreign persons should contact their intermediaries with respect to the application of these rules to their accounts.

The tax consequences to foreign persons entitled to claim the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty may be different from those described in this SAI. Foreign shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisers with respect to the particular tax consequences of an investment in the Fund, including the applicability of the U.S. withholding taxes described above and the possible applicability of U.S. estate tax.

Subject to the issuance of further guidance, under legislation known as "FATCA" (the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act), ordinary dividends the Fund pays after December 31, 2013, and the gross proceeds of share redemptions and certain capital gains dividends it pays after December 31, 2016, to "foreign financial institutions" and certain other foreign entities will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% unless various certification, information reporting, due diligence and other applicable requirements (different from, and in addition to, those described above) are satisfied. In general, no such withholding will occur with respect to a U.S. person or non-U.S. individual that timely provides the Fund with a valid IRS Form W-9 or W-8, respectively. Payments that are taken into account as effectively connected income are not subject to these withholding rules. Foreign shareholders should consult their own tax advisors as to the applicability and consequences of this new legislation to them.

Additional information reporting requirements apply to individuals that hold any interest in a "specified foreign financial asset" if the aggregate value of all such assets held by such individual exceeds $50,000. Significant penalties can apply upon a failure to make the required disclosure and in respect to understatements of tax attributable to undisclosed foreign financial assets. The scope of this reporting requirement is not entirely clear and all shareholders should consult their own tax advisors as to whether reporting may be required in respect of their indirect interests in the Fund's investments.

Tax Shelter and Other Reporting Requirements. If a shareholder realizes a loss on the disposition of Fund shares of at least $2 million in any single taxable year or $4 million in any combination of taxable years (for an individual shareholder); or at least $10 million in any single taxable year or $20 million in any combination of taxable years (for a corporate shareholder), the shareholder must file with the Internal Revenue Service a disclosure statement on Form 8886. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers to determine the applicability of this requirement in light of their individual circumstances. Some states may similarly require such transactions to be reported separately with the appropriate state taxing authorities.

Tax Considerations with Respect to an Underlying Fund's Subsidiary. Certain Underlying Funds may invest a portion of their assets in a wholly-owned Subsidiary, which is classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A foreign corporation, such as the Subsidiary, will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation unless it is deemed to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business. It is expected that the Subsidiary will conduct its activities in a manner so as to meet the requirements of a safe harbor under Section 864(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Safe Harbor") pursuant to which the Subsidiary, provided it is not a dealer in stocks, securities or commodities, may engage in the following activities without being deemed to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business: (1) trading in stocks or securities (including contracts or options to buy or sell securities) for its own account; and (2) trading, for its own account, in commodities that are "of a kind customarily dealt in on an organized commodity exchange" if the transaction is of a kind customarily consummated at such place. Thus, the Subsidiary's securities and commodities trading activities should not constitute a U.S. trade or business. However, if certain of the Subsidiary's activities were determined not to be of the type described in the Safe Harbor or if the Subsidiary's gains are attributable to investments in securities that constitute U.S. real property interests (which is not expected), then the activities of the Subsidiary may constitute a U.S. trade or business, or be taxed as such.

In general, a foreign corporation that does not conduct a U.S. trade or business is nonetheless subject to tax at a flat rate of 30 percent on the gross amount of certain U.S.-source income that is not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (or lower tax treaty rate), generally payable through withholding. There is presently no tax treaty in force between the U.S. and the Cayman Islands that would reduce this rate of withholding tax. Income subject to such a flat tax includes dividends and certain interest income. The 30 percent tax does not apply to U.S.-source capital gains (whether long-term or short-term) or to interest paid to a foreign corporation on its deposits with U.S. banks. The 30 percent tax also does not apply to interest which qualifies as "portfolio interest." The term "portfolio interest" generally includes interest (including original issue discount) on an obligation in registered form which has been issued after July 18, 1984 and with respect to which the person, who would otherwise be required to deduct and withhold the 30 percent tax, received the required statement that the beneficial owner of the obligation is not a U.S. person within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code. Under certain circumstances, interest on bearer obligations may also be considered portfolio interest.

A Subsidiary is wholly-owned by an Underlying Fund. A U.S. person who owns (directly, indirectly or constructively) 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of a foreign corporation is a "U.S. Shareholder" for purposes of the controlled foreign corporation ("CFC") provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. A foreign corporation is a CFC if, on any day of its taxable year, more than 50 percent of the voting power or value of its stock is owned (directly, indirectly or constructively) by "U.S. Shareholders." Because the Underlying Fund is a U.S. person that owns all of the stock of the Subsidiary, the Underlying Fund is a "U.S. Shareholder" and the Subsidiary is a CFC. As a "U.S. Shareholder," the Underlying Fund is required to include in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes all of the Subsidiary's "subpart F income" (defined, in part, below), whether or not such income is distributed by the Subsidiary. It is expected that all of the Subsidiary's income will be "subpart F income." "Subpart F income" generally includes interest, original issue discount, dividends, net gains from the disposition of stocks or securities, receipts with respect to securities loans and net payments received with respect to equity swaps and similar derivatives. "Subpart F income" also includes the excess of gains over losses from transactions (including futures, forward and similar transactions) in any commodities. The Underlying Fund's recognition of the Subsidiary's "subpart F income" will increase the Underlying Fund's tax basis in the Subsidiary. Distributions by the Subsidiary to the Underlying Fund will be tax-free, to the extent of its previously undistributed "subpart F income," and will correspondingly reduce the Underlying Fund's tax basis in the Subsidiary. "Subpart F income" is generally treated as ordinary income, regardless of the character of the Subsidiary's underlying income. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary, such loss is generally not available to offset the income earned by the Underlying Fund.

Appendix A: Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class A shares of the Oppenheimer funds or the contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") that may apply to Class A, Class B, Class C or Class N shares may be waived. 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 Oppenheimer funds have all of the share classes described and not all waivers apply to all Oppenheimer 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:

plans created or qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code,
non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
"Grouped Plans," as defined in the section "Class N Share Availability" in this SAI,
403(b)(7) custodial plan accounts, and
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, OFI Global Asset Management, Inc., 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). Class A shares acquired by conversion from another share class are not considered a "purchase" for any purpose.

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 CDSC if redeemed within 18 months (24 months in the case of shares of Oppenheimer Rochester National Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals shares purchased prior to 10/22/07), 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 CDSC, the Distributor will pay the applicable concession described in the Prospectus under "Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge."¹ This waiver provision applies to:

Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more ($250,000 or more for certain Funds).

Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans (other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3) certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan purchases of $200,000 or more.

Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the purchases are made:

through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases, or
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:

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"). 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.
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.
The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a service agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date of the plan sponsor signs that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion manager).

Appendix B: Ratings Definitions

Ratings Definitions

Below are summaries of the rating definitions used by the nationally recognized statistical rating organizations ("NRSROs") listed below. Those ratings represent the opinion of the NRSRO as to the credit quality of issues that they rate. The summaries below are based upon publicly available information provided by the NRSROs.

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:

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;

Nature of and provisions of the obligation; and

Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights.

The issue ratings definitions are expressed in terms of default risk. As such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above.

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

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

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

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

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C: Obligations 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" is 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" is 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" is 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" is 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" 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.

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", and "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:

Amortization schedule-the larger the final maturity relative to other maturities, the more likely it will be treated as a note; and

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, and 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.

Notes to Financial Statements:

Note 1. Organization

Oppenheimer Diversified Alternatives Fund (the “Fund”), was organized as a business trust in the State of Delaware on September 10, 2012 as a diversified, open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund is a mutual fund known as a “fund of funds” because it primarily invests in other mutual funds (“Underlying Funds”). The Underlying Funds mainly invest in alternative (or non-traditional) asset classes and investment strategies, including commodities, foreign currency exposure, gold and other special metals, event-linked bonds, real estate and energy infrastructure master limited partnerships (“MLPs”).

The Fund had no operations through December 3, 2012 other than those relating to organizational matters and the sale and proceeds from the issuance of shares of beneficial interest to OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Adviser”) as noted in the table below:

Fund	Class A	Class C	Class N	Class I	Class Y
Oppenheimer Diversified Alternatives Fund	6,000.00	1,000.00	1,000.00	1,000.00	1,000.00

On November 29, 2012, the Fund’s Board of Trustees approved an Investment Advisory Agreement with OFI and a Distributor’s Agreement with Oppenheimer Funds Distributor, Inc. (“OFDI” or the “Distributor”), a wholly owned subsidiary of OFI.

The Fund seeks total return.

The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N, Class I and Class Y. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold at net asset value, 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 I and Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class I and Class Y shares. 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.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

As of December 3, 2012, OFI has directly assumed certain organization and initial offering costs of the Fund, which are estimated at $88,279, and has also agreed to voluntarily reimburse the Fund for organizational and initial offering costs borne directly by the Fund, which are estimated at $19,700.

Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares 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.

The Fund intends to comply in its initial fiscal year and thereafter with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and does not expect to be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) distributed to shareholders. If the Fund fails to qualify as a registered investment company (RIC) in any taxable year, the Fund will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.

Note 3. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliated Parties

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, OFI will not charge a management fee to the Fund; however OFI will collect indirect management fees through the investments in the Underlying Funds.

OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Adviser, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees paid directly by the Fund to an annual rate of 0.35% for classes C, N, I and Y of the average daily net assets of each class per fiscal year, and to 0.30% of average annual net assets per fiscal year for Class A. Each of these voluntary expense limitations may not be amended or withdrawn after one year from the date of this prospectus.

OFDI acts as the principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of shares of the Funds. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares that 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 up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class C, and Class N shares. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on 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 C and Class N plans.

Note 4. Pending Litigation

Since 2009, a number of class action lawsuits have been pending in federal courts against OppenheimerFunds, Inc., the Fund’s investment advisor (the “Manager”), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Fund’s principal underwriter and distributor (the

“Distributor”), and certain funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Funds’ investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits.

Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. The settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against the Manager and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.

On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (“AAArdvark XS”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.

The Manager believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

Item 30. – Indemnification

Reference is made to the provisions of Article VII of Registrant's Declaration of Trust filed as Exhibit 28(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 31. - 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 31(b) below.
