ABOUT THE FUND

The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies
WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE? The Fund seeks capital appreciation.

     WHAT DOES THE FUND  MAINLY  INVEST  IN? The Fund  invests  mainly in common
stocks of  "growth  companies."  These  may be newer  companies  or  established
companies of any  capitalization  range that the portfolio  manager believes may
appreciate in value over the long term.

     HOW DOES THE MANAGER  DECIDE  WHAT  SECURITIES  TO BUY OR SELL?  The Fund's
investment  manager,  OppenheimerFunds,  Inc. (the "Manager"),  looks for growth
companies  with stock  prices that it  believes  are  reasonable  in relation to
overall stock market valuations. The Manager focuses on factors that may vary in
particular  cases and over time in seeking broad  diversification  of the Fund's
portfolio among industries and market sectors. Currently, the Manager looks for:

     companies in businesses with above-average growth potential, companies with
growth rates that the  portfolio  managers  believe are  sustainable  over time,
stocks with reasonable valuations relative to their growth potential.


     The  Manager  may sell  companies  from the Fund that it believes no longer
meet the above criteria.

     WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED  FOR? The Fund is designed for  investors  seeking
capital  appreciation in their  investment  over the long term.  Those investors
should be willing to assume the risks of  short-term  share  price  fluctuations
that are typical for a growth fund focusing on stock investments. Since the Fund
does not seek income and its income from its  investments  will likely be small,
it is not designed for investors needing current income. Because of its focus on
long-term growth, the Fund may be appropriate for a portion of a retirement plan
investment. The Fund is not a complete investment program.

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund

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

     RISKS OF  INVESTING  IN  STOCKS.  Stocks  fluctuate  in  price,  and  their
short-term  volatility at times may be great. Because the Fund currently invests
primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies,  the value of the Fund's portfolio
will be affected by changes in the U.S. stock  markets.  Market risk will affect
the Fund's net asset values per share, which will fluctuate as the values of the
Fund's portfolio securities change. A variety of factors can affect the price of
a particular  stock and the prices of  individual  stocks do not all move in the
same direction uniformly or at the same time. Different stock markets may behave
differently from each other.

     Other factors can affect a particular  stock's price, such as poor earnings
reports by the issuer,  loss of major customers,  major  litigation  against the
issuer,  or  changes  in  government  regulations  affecting  the  issuer or its
industry.

     The Manager may increase the relative emphasis of the Fund's investments in
a  particular  industry  from time to time.  Stocks of issuers  in a  particular
industry  may  be  affected  by  changes  in  economic  conditions,   government
regulations,  availability of basic resources or supplies,  or other events that
affect that industry more than others. To the extent that the Fund increases the
relative emphasis of its investments in a particular industry,  its share values
may fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry.

     Stocks of growth companies,  particularly newer or smaller  companies,  may
offer  opportunities  for greater capital  appreciation but may be more volatile
than other  stocks.  They have greater risks of loss and may be less liquid than
stocks of larger,  more  established  companies.  That means the Fund could have
greater  difficulty  selling a security  of a smaller  company at an  acceptable
price,  especially in periods of market  volatility.  That factor  increases the
potential for losses to the Fund. Also, it may take a substantial period of time
before the Fund realizes a gain on its  investment in a small-cap  company if it
realizes any gain at all.

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

     In the short term, the stock markets can be volatile,  and the price of the
Fund's  shares  can go up and  down  substantially.  Growth  stocks  may be more
volatile  than  other  equity  investments.  The  Fund  generally  does  not use
income-oriented investments to help cushion the Fund's total return from changes
in stock prices. In the  OppenheimerFunds  spectrum,  the Fund is generally more
aggressive  than funds  that  invest in both  stocks and bonds or in  investment
grade debt  securities,  but may be less  volatile  than  small-cap and emerging
markets stock funds.


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



The Fund's Past Performance

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

     The after-tax  returns are shown for Class A shares only and are calculated
using the historical  highest  individual  federal  marginal income tax rates in
effect during the periods shown, and do not reflect the impact of state or local
taxes.  The  after-tax  returns  are  calculated  based on  certain  assumptions
mandated by regulation and your actual  after-tax  returns may differ from those
shown,  depending on your  individual tax situation.  The after-tax  returns set
forth below are not  relevant to  investors  who hold their Fund shares  through
tax-deferred  arrangements  such as  401(k)  plans  or IRAs or to  institutional
investors not subject to tax. The Fund's past investment performance, before and
after taxes,  is not  necessarily  an indication of how the Fund will perform in
the future.


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

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


     For the period from 1/1/06  through  9/30/06,  the  cumulative  return (not
annualized) before taxes for Class A shares of the Fund was 2.87%.

     During  the  period  shown  in the  bar  chart,  the  highest  return  (not
annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was 28.86% (4th Qtr `99) and the
lowest return (not  annualized)  before taxes for a calendar quarter was -19.89%
(3rd Qtr '01).

     The Fund's average annual total returns include  applicable  sales charges:
for Class A, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B, the
contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-years);  and for Class
C and Class N, the 1% contingent  deferred  sales charge for the 1-year  period.
There is no sales charge for Class Y shares.  Because Class B shares  convert to
Class A shares 72 months after  purchase,  Class B  "life-of-class"  performance
does  not  include  any  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  and  uses  Class A
performance for the period after conversion. The returns measure the performance
of a  hypothetical  account and assume  that all  dividends  and  capital  gains
distributions  have been reinvested in additional shares. The performance of the
Fund's  Class A shares is  compared  to S&P 500  Index.  The  index  performance
includes  reinvestment of income but does not reflect  transaction  costs, fees,
expenses or taxes. The Fund's investments vary from those in the index.


Fees and Expenses of the Fund


     The  following  tables are  provided  to help you  understand  the fees and
expenses  you may pay if you buy and hold  shares of the  Fund.  The Fund pays a
variety of expenses  directly  for  management  of its  assets,  administration,
distribution  of its shares and other  services.  Those  expenses are subtracted
from the Fund's assets to calculate  the Fund's net asset values per share.  All
shareholders  therefore pay those expenses  indirectly.  Shareholders  pay other
transaction  expenses  directly,  such as sales  charges.  The numbers below are
based on the Fund's expenses during its fiscal year ended August 31, 2006.

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


     Expenses may vary in future years.  "Other Expenses" include transfer agent
fees,  custodial fees, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund pays. The
"Other  Expenses"  in the table are based on, among other  things,  the fees the
Fund would have paid if the  transfer  agent had not waived a portion of its fee
under a  voluntary  undertaking  to the  Fund to  limit  these  fees to 0.35% of
average daily net assets per fiscal year for all classes.  That  undertaking may
be  amended or  withdrawn  at any time.  After the  waiver,  the  actual  "Other
Expenses" and "Total Annual Operating Expenses" were 0.35% and 1.92% for Class B
and as shown above for all other classes.

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

     2. Applies to  redemptions  in first year after  purchase.  The  contingent
deferred sales charge gradually declines from

5% to 1% in years one through six and is eliminated after that.

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

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



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


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

About the Fund's Investments

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

     The  Manager  tries to reduce  risks by  carefully  researching  securities
before they are  purchased.  The Fund  attempts to reduce its exposure to market
risks by  diversifying  its  investments,  that is, by not holding a substantial
amount of stock of any one company and by not  investing  too great a percentage
of the Fund's assets in any one company. Also, the Fund does not concentrate 25%
or more of its assets in  investments  in any one industry.  That limit does not
apply to securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.  government or its agencies
and instrumentalities or securities issued by investment companies.

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

     Stock  Investments.  The Manager  looks for stocks of  companies  that have
growth potential. Growth companies may be developing new products or services or
may be  expanding  into  new  markets  for  their  products.  They  may be newer
companies or more  established  companies  entering a growth  cycle.  The Fund's
investments are not limited to issuers in a specific  capitalization range, such
as large-cap or small-cap  companies,  and the Fund can invest in issuers in all
capitalization  ranges.  Market capitalization refers to the market value of all
of a  company's  issued and  outstanding  stock.  Currently,  the  Fund's  stock
investments are focused on large-cap issuers,  but that emphasis can change over
time.  Because the stocks of companies that have smaller market  capitalizations
tend to be more volatile,  to the extent that the Fund holds  small-cap  stocks,
its share prices may fluctuate more and the risks of loss are greater.

     Newer growth  companies  tend to retain a large part of their  earnings for
research,  development or investment in capital assets.  Therefore,  they do not
tend to  emphasize  paying  dividends,  and may  not  pay  any  dividends  for a
protracted  period.  They are  selected  for the Fund's  portfolio  because  the
Manager believes the price of the stock will increase over time.

     Foreign Securities. The Fund can buy foreign equity and debt securities. It
would  buy debt  securities  primarily  for  liquidity  or  defensive  purposes,
including debt securities issued by foreign companies or by foreign  governments
and their agencies.  The Fund currently does not expect to have more than 35% of
its total assets invested in foreign securities,  although it has the ability to
invest in them without limit.

     The change in value of a foreign  currency  against  the U.S.  dollar  will
result in a change in the U.S.  dollar value of securities  denominated  in that
foreign  currency.  Foreign  issuers are not subject to the same  accounting and
disclosure requirements that U.S. companies are subject to. The value of foreign
investments may be affected by exchange  control  regulations,  expropriation or
nationalization  of a company's assets,  foreign taxes,  delays in settlement of
transactions, changes in governmental economic or monetary policy in the U.S. or
abroad,  or other  economic or  political  factors.  These risks could cause the
prices of foreign stocks to fall and therefore depress the Fund's share prices.


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

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


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

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

     Other Equity  Securities.  While the Fund mainly buys common stocks, it can
also buy preferred  stocks and  securities  convertible  into common stock.  The
Manager considers some convertible securities to be "equity equivalents" because
of the  conversion  feature and in that case their rating has less impact on the
Manager's investment decision than in the case of other debt securities.

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

     Derivative Investments.  The Fund can invest in a number of different kinds
of  "derivative"  investments.  In general terms, a derivative  investment is an
investment  contract whose value depends on (or is derived from) the value of an
underlying  asset,  interest  rate or index.  In the  broadest  sense,  options,
futures  contracts,  and other  hedging  instruments  the Fund  might use may be
considered  "derivative"  investments.  In  addition  to using  derivatives  for
hedging, the Fund might use other derivative  investments because they offer the
potential for increased  value. The Fund currently does not use derivatives to a
significant degree and is not required to use them in seeking its objective.

     Derivatives have risks. If the issuer of the derivative investment does not
pay the amount due, the Fund can lose money on the  investment.  The  underlying
security  or  investment  on which a  derivative  is based,  and the  derivative
itself, may not perform the way the Manager expected it to. As a result of these
risks the Fund could realize less principal or income from the  investment  than
expected  or its hedge  might be  unsuccessful.  As a result,  the Fund's  share
prices  could fall.  Certain  derivative  investments  held by the Fund might be
illiquid.

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

     Some of these hedging  strategies would hedge the Fund's portfolio  against
price fluctuations.  Other hedging  strategies,  such as buying futures and call
options, would tend to increase the Fund's exposure to the securities market.

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


     Investments  in Oppenheimer  Institutional  Money Market Fund. The Fund can
invest its free cash balances in the Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional
Money  Market Fund,  to seek current  income  while  preserving  liquidity.  The
Oppenheimer  Institutional Money Market Fund is a registered open-end management
investment  company,  regulated  as a money  market  fund  under the  Investment
Company  Act of 1940,  as  amended.  It  invests  in a  variety  of  short-term,
high-quality,  dollar-denominated  money market  instruments  issued by the U.S.
government,  domestic and foreign corporations and financial  institutions,  and
other entities.  As a shareholder,  the Fund will be subject to its proportional
share of the  Oppenheimer  Institutional  Money Market  Fund's Class E expenses,
including  its advisory  fee.  However,  the Manager will waive a portion of the
Fund's  advisory  fee to the extent of the Fund's share of the advisory fee paid
by the Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund.

     Temporary  Defensive  and  Interim  Investments.  In  times of  adverse  or
unstable  market,  economic or political  conditions,  the Fund can invest up to
100%  of  its  total  assets  in  temporary   defensive   investments  that  are
inconsistent  with the Fund's principal  investment  strategies.  Generally they
would be cash equivalents (such as commercial paper),  money market instruments,
short-term  debt  securities,   U.S.   government   securities,   or  repurchase
agreements.  The Fund could  also hold these  types of  securities  pending  the
investment of proceeds  from the sale of Fund shares or portfolio  securities or
to meet anticipated  redemptions of Fund shares.  To the extent the Fund invests
defensively in these securities,  it might not achieve its investment  objective
of capital appreciation.

     Portfolio Turnover. A change in the securities held by the Fund is known as
"portfolio  turnover." The Fund can engage in active and frequent trading to try
to achieve  its  objective,  and may have a high  portfolio  turnover  rate (for
example,  over 100%),  although the Manger does not expect  turnover to be high.
Increased  portfolio turnover creates higher brokerage and transaction costs for
the Fund (and may reduce  performance).  If the Fund realizes capital gains when
it sells its  portfolio  investments,  it must  generally pay those gains out to
shareholders,  increasing their taxable distributions.  The Financial Highlights
table at the end of this  Prospectus  shows the Fund's  portfolio  turnover rate
during prior fiscal years.


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

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

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


How the Fund Is Managed


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

     The Manager has been an investment  advisor since 1960. The Manager and its
subsidiaries and controlled  affiliates managed more than $220 billion in assets
as of September 30, 2006,  including  other  Oppenheimer  funds with more than 6
million  shareholder  accounts.  The  Manager is located at Two World  Financial
Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1008.

     Advisory Fees. Under the Investment Advisory  Agreement,  the Fund pays the
Manager an advisory  fee,  calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund, at an
annual rate that  declines as the Fund's  assets  grow:  0.75% of the first $200
million  of  average  annual  net  assets  of the  Fund,  0.72% of the next $200
million,  0.69% of the next $200 million,  0.66% of the next $200 million, 0.60%
of the next $700 million, 0.58% of the next $1.0 billion, 0.56% of the next $2.0
billion,  0.54% of the next $2.0 billion,  0.52% of the next $2.0 billion, 0.50%
of the next 2.5  billion,  and 0.48% of average  annual  net  assets  over $11.0
billion.  The Fund's  management  fee for its last fiscal year ended  August 31,
2006 was 0.57% of average annual net assets for each class of shares.

     A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees' approval of the
Fund's  investment  advisory  contract is  available  in the Fund's  Semi-Annual
Report to shareholders for the six month period ended February 28, 2006.


     Portfolio Managers.  The Fund's portfolio is co-managed by William L. Wilby
and Marc L. Baylin, who are primarily  responsible for the day-to-day management
of the Fund's investments.


     William  L.  Wilby,  CFA,  is a Vice  President  of the Fund and has been a
portfolio manager of the Fund since October 2005, a Senior Vice President of the
Manager since July 1994 and a Senior Investment Officer and Director of Equities
of the Manager since July 2004. Mr. Wilby was Director of  International  Global
Equities of the Manager  from  December  1992  through July 2004 and Senior Vice
President of  HarbourView  Asset  Management  Corporation  from May 1999 through
November  2001.  Before  joining  OppenheimerFunds  in 1991,  Mr.  Wilby  was an
International Investment Strategist at Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., a Managing
Director and Portfolio Manager at AIG Global Investors, an International Pension
Manager  at  Northern  Trust  Bank in  Chicago  and an  International  Financial
Economist at Northern Trust Bank and at the Federal Reserve Bank in Chicago.

     Marc L.  Baylin,  CFA, is a Vice  President of the Fund and the Manager and
has been a member of the Growth Equity  Investment Team since September 2005. He
was Managing Director and Lead Portfolio Manager at JP Morgan Fleming Investment
Management  from June 2002 to August  2005 and was a Vice  President  of T. Rowe
Price, where he was an analyst from June 1993 and a portfolio manager from March
1999 to June 2002.

     The Statement of Additional  Information  provides  additional  information
about the Portfolio Managers' compensation, other accounts they manage and their
ownership of Fund shares.


     Pending  Litigation.  A  consolidated  amended  complaint  was  filed  as a
putative  class  action  against the Manager and the  Transfer  Agent (and other
defendants) in the U.S.  District Court for the Southern District of New York on
January 10, 2005 and was amended on March 4, 2005. The complaint alleged,  among
other things, that the Manager charged excessive fees for distribution and other
costs,  and  that by  permitting  and/or  participating  in those  actions,  the
Directors/Trustees and the Officers of the funds breached their fiduciary duties
to fund shareholders under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and at common law.
The plaintiffs sought unspecified  damages,  an accounting of all fees paid, and
an award of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses.

     In response to the  defendants'  motions to dismiss the suit,  seven of the
eight  counts in the  complaint,  including  the claims  against  certain of the
Oppenheimer funds, as nominal defendants, and against certain present and former
Directors,  Trustees  and  officers  of  the  funds,  and  the  Distributor,  as
defendants,  were dismissed with prejudice, by court order dated March 10, 2006,
and the remaining count against the Manager and the Transfer Agent was dismissed
with  prejudice  by court  order dated April 5, 2006.  The  plaintiffs  filed an
appeal of those dismissals on May 11, 2006.

     The Manager  believes  that it is premature to render any opinion as to the
likelihood of an outcome unfavorable to it, the funds, the Directors/Trustees or
the Officers on the appeal of the decisions of the district  court,  and that no
estimate  can yet be made with any degree of certainty as to the amount or range
of any  potential  loss.  However,  the Manager  believes  that the  allegations
contained  in the  complaint  are without  merit and that there are  substantial
grounds to sustain the district court's rulings.


ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares


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

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

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

     o Paying by Federal Funds Wire.  Shares  purchased  through the Distributor
may be paid for by Federal  Funds  wire.  The minimum  wire  purchase is $2,500.
Before sending a wire, call the Distributor's  Wire Department at 1.800.225.5677
to notify the Distributor of the wire and to receive further instructions.

     o Buying Shares Through OppenheimerFunds AccountLink. With AccountLink, you
can pay for shares by electronic funds transfers from your bank account.  Shares
are  purchased  for your  account by a transfer of money from your bank  account
through the  Automated  Clearing  House  (ACH)  system.  You can  provide  share
purchase  instructions  automatically,  under an Asset Builder  Plan,  described
below,  or by telephone  instructions  using  OppenheimerFunds  PhoneLink,  also
described below. Please refer to "AccountLink," below for more details.

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


     WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT YOU MUST INVEST? In most cases, you can buy Fund
shares  with  a  minimum  initial  investment  of  $1,000  and  make  additional
investments  at any time  with as  little as $50.  There  are  reduced  minimums
available under the following special investment plans:

     o If you establish  one of the many types of retirement  plan accounts that
OppenheimerFunds  offers,  more fully  described  below under "Special  Investor
Services," you can start your account with as little as $500.

     o By using an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic Exchange Plan (details are in
the Statement of Additional Information),  or government allotment plan, you can
make an  initial  investment  for as  little  as $500.  The  minimum  subsequent
investment is $50,  except that for any account  established  under one of these
plans prior to November 1, 2002, the minimum  additional  investment will remain
$25.

     o A  minimum  initial  investment  of $250  applies  to  certain  fee based
programs that have an agreement  with the  Distributor.  The minimum  subsequent
investment for those programs is $50.

     o  The  minimum  investment  requirement  does  not  apply  to  reinvesting
dividends  from the Fund or other  Oppenheimer  funds (a list of them appears in
the Statement of Additional Information,  or you can ask your dealer or call the
Transfer Agent), or reinvesting  distributions  from unit investment trusts that
have made arrangements with the Distributor.


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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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



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



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

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

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

     Class Y Shares.  Class Y shares are offered  only to certain  institutional
investors that have a special agreement with the Distributor.


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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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


                                       Front-End Sales        Front-End Sales
                                       Charge As a            Charge As a         Concession As a

Less  than  $25,000                     5.75%                   6.10%              4.75%

$25,000  or more  but less
than $50,000                            5.50%                   5.82%              4.75%

$50,000  or more  but less
than $100,000                           4.75%                   4.99%              4.00%

$100,000  or more but less
than $250,000                           3.75%                   3.90%              3.00%

$250,000  or more but less
than $500,000                           2.50%                   2.56%              2.00%

$500,000  or more but less
than $1 million                         2.00%                   2.04%               1.60%

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


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

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

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

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


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

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


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

     o Dividend  Reinvestment.  Dividends  and/or  capital  gains  distributions
received by a shareholder from the

     Fund  may be  reinvested  in  shares  of  the  Fund  or  any  of the  other
Oppenheimer funds into which shares of the Fund may be exchanged without a sales
charge, at the net asset value per share in effect on the payable date. You must
notify the  Transfer  Agent in  writing  to elect  this  option and must have an
existing account in the fund selected for reinvestment.

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

     o  Reinvestment  Privilege.  Within six months of a  redemption  of certain
Class A and Class B shares,  the proceeds may be reinvested in Class A shares of
the Fund,  or any of the other  Oppenheimer  funds into which shares of the Fund
may be exchanged,  without a sales charge. This privilege applies to redemptions
of Class A shares  that were  subject to an initial  sales  charge or Class A or
Class B shares that were  subject to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge when
redeemed.  The  investor  must ask the  Transfer  Agent or his or her  financial
intermediary  for that privilege at the time of  reinvestment  and must identify
the account from which the redemption was made.

     o Other Special Reductions and Waivers.  The Fund and the Distributor offer
additional  arrangements  to reduce or eliminate  front-end  sales charges or to
waive  contingent  deferred sales charges for certain types of transactions  and
for certain  classes of  investors  (primarily  retirement  plans that  purchase
shares in special  programs  through the  Distributor).  These are  described in
greater detail in Appendix B to the Statement of Additional  Information,  which
may be  ordered  by  calling  1.800.225.5677  or  through  the  OppenheimerFunds
website, at  www.oppenheimerfunds.com  (follow the hyperlinks:  "Access Accounts
and  Services" - "Forms & Literature"  - "Order  Literature"  -  "Statements  of
Additional  Information").  A  description  of these  waivers and special  sales
charge  arrangements  is also  available  for  viewing  on the  OppenheimerFunds
website (follow the hyperlinks:  "Research  Funds" - "Fund  Documents" - "View a
description  . . .").  To receive a waiver or special  sales  charge  rate under
these  programs,  the purchaser must notify the  Distributor (or other financial
intermediary  through which shares are being purchased) at the time of purchase,
or notify the Transfer  Agent at the time of redeeming  shares for those waivers
that apply to contingent deferred sales charges.

     o Purchases by Certain  Retirement Plans.  There is no initial sales charge
on  purchases  of Class A shares of the Fund by  retirement  plans  that have $5
million or more in plan assets.  In that case the  Distributor  may pay from its
own resources,  at the time of sale,  concessions in an amount equal to 0.25% of
the purchase  price of Class A shares  purchased  within the first six months of
account establishment by those retirement plans to dealers of record, subject to
certain  exceptions   described  in  "Retirement  Plans"  in  the  Statement  of
Additional Information.


     There is also no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of the
Fund by certain  retirement plans that are part of a retirement plan or platform
offered by banks,  broker-dealers,  financial  advisors,  insurance companies or
recordkeepers.   No  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  is  charged  upon  the
redemption of such shares.


     Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge.  There is no initial sales charge
on  purchases  of Class A  shares  of any one or more of the  Oppenheimer  funds
aggregating  $1 million or more,  or on  purchases  of Class A shares by certain
retirement  plans that  satisfied  certain  requirements  prior to March 1, 2001
("grandfathered  retirement  accounts").  However,  those  Class A shares may be
subject to a Class A contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  as  described  below.
Retirement  plans holding shares of Oppenheimer  funds in an omnibus  account(s)
for the benefit of plan  participants  in the name of a fiduciary  or  financial
intermediary  (other than  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Single DB Plus plans) are
not  permitted  to make  initial  purchases  of  Class  A  shares  subject  to a
contingent deferred sales charge.


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


     If you redeem  any of those  shares  within an  18-month  "holding  period"
measured  from  the  beginning  of the  calendar  month  of  their  purchase,  a
contingent  deferred sales charge (called the "Class A contingent deferred sales
charge") may be deducted from the redemption proceeds. That sales charge will be
equal to 1.0% of the lesser of:

     o the  aggregate  net  asset  value of the  redeemed  shares at the time of
redemption  (excluding  shares purchased by reinvestment of dividends or capital
gain distributions) or

     o the original net asset value of the redeemed shares.

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

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

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

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

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

                                                            (As % of Amount Subject to Charge)
----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------
0 - 1                                                       5.0%

----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------
3 - 4                                                       3.0%

----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------
5 - 6                                                       1.0%

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

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

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


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


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


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

     o The  group  retirement  plan  is  terminated  or  Class N  shares  of all
Oppenheimer funds are terminated as an

     investment  option of the plan and Class N shares  are  redeemed  within 18
months  after the plan's  first  purchase  of Class N shares of any  Oppenheimer
fund, or

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

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


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


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


DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS.


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



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


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


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

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

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

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


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


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


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

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

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

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


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


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

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


     Certain Requests Require a Signature Guarantee. To protect you and the Fund
from  fraud,  the  following  redemption  requests  must be in writing  and must
include a signature  guarantee (although there may be other situations that also
require a  signature  guarantee):  o You wish to redeem more than  $100,000  and
receive a check

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

     o a U.S. national securities exchange, a registered securities  association
or a clearing agency. If you are signing on behalf of a corporation, partnership
or other  business or as a  fiduciary,  you must also  include your title in the
signature.

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

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


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

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

Use the following address for              Send courier or express mail

OppenheimerFunds Services                  OppenheimerFunds Services
P.O. Box 5270                              10200 E. Girard Avenue, Building D
Denver, Colorado 80217                     Denver, Colorado 80231


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

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

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

Are There Limits on Amounts Redeemed by Telephone?

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

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

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


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


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

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

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

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

     o shares redeemed in the special  circumstances  described in Appendix B to
the  Statement of  Additional  Information.  To  determine  whether a contingent
deferred  sales charge  applies to a redemption,  the Fund redeems shares in the
following order:

     1.  shares   acquired  by  reinvestment  of  dividends  and  capital  gains
distributions,

     2. shares held for the holding period that applies to the class, and

     3. shares held the longest during the holding period.

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

How to Exchange Shares

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

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

     o The prospectus of the selected fund must offer the exchange privilege.

     o When you  establish  an account,  you must hold the shares you buy for at
least seven days before you can  exchange  them.  After your account is open for
seven days, you can exchange shares on any regular  business day, subject to the
limitations described below.

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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


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


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


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

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON FREQUENT PURCHASES, REDEMPTIONS AND EXCHANGES?


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

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

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

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


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


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

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


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


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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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


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


Shareholder Account Rules and Policies


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

     A $12 annual "Minimum  Balance Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a
value of less than $500. The fee is

     automatically  deducted  from each  applicable  Fund  account  annually  in
September.  See the  Statement of  Additional  Information  to learn how you can
avoid this fee and for circumstances under which this fee will not be assessed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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

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

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

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

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

     Reinvest Your Distributions in Another  OppenheimerFunds  Account.  You can
reinvest   all   distributions   in  the  same   class  of  shares  of   another
OppenheimerFunds account you have established.

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

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


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

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

     Remember,  There May be Taxes on  Transactions.  Because  the Fund's  share
prices fluctuate,  you may have a capital gain or loss when you sell or exchange
your shares. A capital gain or loss is the difference between the price you paid
for the shares and the price you received  when you sold them.  Any capital gain
is subject to capital gains tax.

     Returns of Capital Can Occur. In certain cases,  distributions  made by the
Fund may be considered a non-taxable return of capital to shareholders.  If that
occurs, it will be identified in notices to shareholders.

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

Financial Highlights


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

ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

The Fund's Investment Policies

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

     |X| Cyclical  Opportunities.  The Fund might also seek to take advantage of
changes in the business  cycle by investing in companies  that are  sensitive to
those changes if the Manager believes they have growth  potential.  For example,
when the economy is expanding, companies in the consumer durables and technology
sectors might benefit and offer long-term growth  opportunities.  Other cyclical
industries  include insurance,  for example.  The Fund focuses on seeking growth
over the long term,  but could seek to take  tactical  advantage  of  short-term
market movements or events affecting particular issuers or industries.

     |X| Investments in Equity  Securities.  The Fund focuses its investments in
equity securities.  Equity securities  include common stocks,  preferred stocks,
rights and warrants,  and securities  convertible  into common stock. The Fund's
investments may include stocks of companies of all market capitalization ranges:
small-cap,  mid-cap and large-cap.  At times, the Fund may increase its emphasis
on equity investments in securities of one or more capitalization  ranges, based
upon the Manager's  judgment of where are the best market  opportunities to seek
the Fund's objective.  It may use some of the specific investment techniques and
strategies some times or not at all.

     In selecting  securities for the Fund's portfolio,  the Manager evaluates a
number of factors, including among them:

|_|      the history of the issuer's operations and financial results,
|_|      prospects for the industry of which the issuer is part,
|_|      pending product developments and those of competitors,
|_|      the effect of general market and economic conditions on the issuer's
         business,
|_|      legislative proposals that might affect the issuer, and
|_|      the issuer's current financial condition.

     Current  income  is not a  criterion  used  to  select  equity  securities.
However,  certain debt  securities may be selected for the Fund's  portfolio for
defensive  purposes  (including debt  securities  that the Manager  believes may
offer some  opportunities for capital  appreciation when stocks are disfavored).

     The Fund can  invest in  securities  of small cap  issuers  (having  market
capitalizations  of less than $1 billion).  Securities  of small  capitalization
issuers may be subject to greater price volatility in general than securities of
large-cap  and  mid-cap  companies.  Therefore,  to the degree that the Fund has
investments in smaller  capitalization  companies at times of market volatility,
the Fund's  share price may  fluctuate  more.  As noted  below,  the Fund limits
investments in unseasoned small cap issuers.

     |_| Convertible Securities. While convertible securities are a form of debt
security,  in many cases,  their conversion  feature  (allowing  conversion into
equity securities) causes them to be regarded more as "equity equivalents." As a
result,  the credit  rating  assigned  to the  security  has less  impact on the
Manager's investment decision with respect to convertible securities than in the
case of  non-convertible  fixed income  securities.  The value of a  convertible
security is a function of its "investment value" and its "conversion  value." If
the investment value exceeds the conversion value, the security will behave more
like a debt security and the security's price will likely increase when interest
rates fall and  decrease  when  interest  rates rise.  If the  conversion  value
exceeds  the  investment  value,  the  security  will behave more like an equity
security.  In that case it will  likely  sell at a premium  over its  conversion
value  and its  price  will  tend to  fluctuate  directly  with the price of the
underlying  security.  To determine  whether  convertible  securities  should be
regarded as "equity  equivalents,"  the Manager examines the following  factors:
(1) whether,  at the option of the  investor,  the  convertible  security can be
exchanged  for a fixed  number  of shares of  common  stock of the  issuer,  (2)
whether the issuer of the  convertible  securities has restated its earnings per
share of  common  stock on a fully  diluted  basis  (considering  the  effect of
conversion  of the  convertible  securities),  and (3) the  extent  to which the
convertible  security  may be a defensive  "equity  substitute,"  providing  the
ability to participate in any  appreciation  in the price of the issuer's common
stock.

     |_| Preferred  Stock.  Preferred  stock,  unlike common stock, has a stated
dividend rate payable from the corporation's earnings. Preferred stock dividends
may  be  cumulative   or   non-cumulative,   participating,   or  auction  rate.
"Cumulative"  dividend  provisions  require  all or a  portion  of prior  unpaid
dividends to be paid before  dividends can be paid to the issuer's common stock.
"Participating"  preferred  stock may be  entitled to a dividend  exceeding  the
stated dividend in certain cases.

     If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred  stocks may be less
attractive,  causing the price of preferred  stocks to decline.  Preferred stock
may have mandatory sinking fund provisions,  as well as provisions  allowing the
stock to be called or redeemed prior to its maturity,  which can have a negative
impact on the  stock's  price  when  interest  rates  decline.  Preferred  stock
generally  has  a  preference  over  common  stock  on  the  distribution  of  a
corporation's assets in the event of liquidation of the corporation.  The rights
of preferred stock on  distribution of a corporation's  assets in the event of a
liquidation  are  generally   subordinate  to  the  rights   associated  with  a
corporation's debt securities.

     |_| Rights and  Warrants.  The Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets
in warrants or rights.  That 5% limit does not apply to warrants  and rights the
Fund has acquired as part of units of  securities  or that are attached to other
securities that the Fund buys. Warrants basically are options to purchase equity
securities at specific prices valid for a specific period of time.  Their prices
do not  necessarily  move parallel to the prices of the  underlying  securities.
Rights are similar to  warrants,  but  normally  have a short  duration  and are
distributed directly by the issuer to its shareholders. Rights and warrants have
no voting  rights,  receive no dividends  and have no rights with respect to the
assets of the issuer.

     |X| Foreign  Securities.  The Fund can purchase equity securities issued or
guaranteed  by  foreign   companies  or  debt   securities   issued  by  foreign
governments.   "Foreign  securities"  include  equity  and  debt  securities  of
companies  organized  under the laws of countries  other than the United States.
They  may  be  traded  on  foreign  securities   exchanges  or  in  the  foreign
over-the-counter  markets.  The Fund currently does not expect to have more than
35% of its total  assets  invested  in foreign  securities,  although it has the
ability to invest in them without limit.

     Securities of foreign issuers that are  represented by American  Depository
Receipts or that are listed on a U.S.  securities exchange or traded in the U.S.
over-the-counter markets are not considered "foreign securities" for the purpose
of the Fund's  investment  allocations.  That is because they are not subject to
many of the special  considerations  and risks,  discussed below,  that apply to
foreign securities traded and held abroad.

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

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

     |_| Risks of Foreign Investing. Investments in foreign securities may offer
special  opportunities  for investing but also present special  additional risks
and  considerations  not  typically  associated  with  investments  in  domestic
securities. Some of these additional risks are:

     o reduction of income by foreign taxes;

     o fluctuation  in value of foreign  investments  due to changes in currency
rates,  currency  devaluation  or currency  control  regulations  (for  example,
currency blockage);

     o transaction charges for currency exchange;

     o lack of public information about foreign issuers;

     o lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards in
foreign countries comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers;

     o less volume on foreign exchanges than on U.S. exchanges;

     o greater  volatility  and less  liquidity  on foreign  markets than in the
U.S.;

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

     o greater difficulties in commencing lawsuits;

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

     o increased risks of delays in settlement of portfolio transactions or loss
of certificates for portfolio securities;

     o foreign withholding taxes on interest and dividends;

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

     o unfavorable differences between the U.S. economy and foreign economies.

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

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

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

     |X| Portfolio  Turnover.  "Portfolio  turnover" describes the rate at which
the Fund  traded its  portfolio  securities  during its last  fiscal  year.  For
example,  if a fund sold all of its  securities  during the year,  its portfolio
turnover  rate would have been 100%.  The Fund's  portfolio  turnover  rate will
fluctuate  from  year to year,  although  the Fund  does  not  expect  to have a
portfolio turnover rate of more than 100% annually. Increased portfolio turnover
creates higher  brokerage and transaction  costs for the Fund,  which may reduce
its overall  performance.  Additionally,  the  realization of capital gains from
selling  portfolio  securities may result in distributions of taxable  long-term
capital gains to  shareholders,  since the Fund will normally  distribute all of
its capital  gains  realized each year, to avoid excise taxes under the Internal
Revenue Code.

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

     |X|  Investing  in  Small,  Unseasoned  Companies.  The Fund can  invest in
securities of small, unseasoned companies. These are companies that have been in
operation  for  less  than  three  years,   including  the   operations  of  any
predecessors.  Securities  of these  companies  may be subject to  volatility in
their prices. They may have a limited trading market, which may adversely affect
the Fund's ability to dispose of them and can reduce the price the Fund might be
able to obtain for them.  Other investors that own a security issued by a small,
unseasoned  issuer for which there is limited liquidity might trade the security
when the Fund is attempting to dispose of its holdings of that security. In that
case the Fund might receive a lower price for its holdings than might  otherwise
be  obtained.  The Fund  currently  intends to invest no more than 5% of its net
assets in those securities.

     |X| Investment in Other Investment  Companies.  The Fund can also invest in
the securities of other investment companies,  which can include open-end funds,
closed-end funds and unit investment trusts,  subject to the limits set forth in
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment  Company Act") that apply to
those types of investments,  and the following additional  limitation:  the Fund
cannot invest in the  securities  of other  registered  investment  companies or
registered unit  investment  trusts in reliance on  sub-paragraph  (F) or (G) of
section 12(d)(1) of the Investment Company Act. For example, the Fund can invest
in exchange-traded  funds, which are typically open-end funds or unit investment
trusts,  listed on a stock  exchange.  The Fund  might do so as a way of gaining
exposure to the segments of the equity or  fixed-income  markets  represented by
the Exchange-Traded Funds' portfolio,  at times when the Fund may not be able to
buy those portfolio securities directly.

     Investing  in  another  investment  company  may  involve  the  payment  of
substantial  premiums  above the value of such  investment  company's  portfolio
securities and is subject to limitations  under the Investment  Company Act. The
Fund does not intend to invest in other investment  companies unless the Manager
believes that the potential  benefits of the  investment  justify the payment of
any premiums or sales charges.  As a shareholder of an investment  company,  the
Fund  would  be  subject  to its  ratable  share  of that  investment  company's
expenses,  including its advisory and administration expenses. The Fund does not
anticipate  investing a substantial  amount of its net assets in shares of other
investment companies.

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

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

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

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

     Pursuant  to an  Exemptive  Order  issued by the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"),  the Fund, along with other affiliated  entities managed
by the Manager,  may transfer  uninvested  cash  balances into one or more joint
repurchase  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.

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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



     |X|  Borrowing.  The  Fund  has the  ability  to  borrow  from  banks on an
unsecured  basis to invest the  borrowed  funds in  portfolio  securities.  This
speculative  technique is known as  "leverage."  The Fund may not borrow  money,
except to the extent  permitted  under the Investment  Company Act, the rules or
regulations  thereunder  or any  exemption  therefrom  that is applicable to the
Fund, as such statute,  rules or regulations may be amended or interpreted  from
time to time.  Currently,  under the  Investment  Company Act, a mutual fund may
borrow only from banks and the maximum  amount it may borrow is up to  one-third
of its total assets  (including  the amount  borrowed less all  liabilities  and
indebtedness  other than  borrowing),  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.  Any such  borrowing  will be
made only pursuant to the requirements of the Investment Company Act and will be
made  only  to the  extent  that  the  value  of each  Fund's  assets  less  its
liabilities,  other than borrowings, is equal to at least 300% of all borrowings
including the proposed borrowing.  If the value of a Fund's assets, so computed,
should fail to meet the 300% asset coverage  requirement,  the Fund is required,
within three  business  days to reduce its bank debt to the extent  necessary to
meet such  requirement  and may have to sell a portion of its  investments  at a
time when independent investment judgment would not dictate such sale.

     The Fund will pay interest on these loans,  and that interest  expense will
raise the  overall  expenses  of the Fund and  reduce  its  returns.  If it does
borrow,  its expenses will be greater than  comparable  funds that do not borrow
for leverage. Additionally, the Fund's net asset value per share might fluctuate
more  than  that of funds  that do not  borrow.  Currently,  the  Fund  does not
contemplate using this technique, but if it does so, it will not likely do so to
a substantial degree.

     |X| Debt  Securities.  While the Fund does not  invest  for the  purpose of
seeking  current  income,  at times certain debt  securities may be selected for
investment by the Fund for defensive purposes,  as described below. For example,
when the stock market is volatile,  or when the portfolio  manager believes that
growth opportunities in stocks are not attractive, certain debt securities might
provide not only defensive opportunities but also some opportunities for capital
appreciation.  These investments could include corporate bonds and notes of U.S.
companies,  as well as U.S.  government  securities,  especially  zero-coupon or
"stripped" U. S. government  securities.  It is not expected that this will be a
significant portfolio strategy of the Fund under normal market circumstances.

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

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

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

     |_| Credit Risk.  Debt  securities are subject to credit risk.  Credit risk
relates to the  ability of the issuer of a debt  security  to make  interest  or
principal  payments on the  security as they become due. If the issuer  fails to
pay interest,  the Fund's income may be reduced and if the issuer fails to repay
principal,  the value of that bond and of the Fund's shares may be reduced.  The
Manager  may rely to some  extent on credit  ratings  by  nationally  recognized
rating  agencies in evaluating  the credit risk of  securities  selected for the
Fund's  portfolio.  It may also use its own research and analysis.  Many factors
affect an issuer's  ability to make timely  payments,  and the credit risks of a
particular security may change over time.

     |_| Interest Rate Risks.  In addition to credit risks,  debt securities are
subject  to  changes  in value  when  prevailing  interest  rates  change.  When
prevailing  interest  rates  fall,  the values of  outstanding  debt  securities
generally  rise,  and the bonds may sell for more than their face  amount.  When
prevailing  interest  rates  rise,  the values of  outstanding  debt  securities
generally decline,  and the bonds may sell at a discount from their face amount.
The magnitude of these price changes is generally  greater for bonds with longer
maturities.  Therefore,  when the average maturity of the Fund's debt securities
is longer, its share price may fluctuate more when interest rates change.

     |X| Derivatives. The Fund can invest in a variety of derivative investments
to seek income for  liquidity  needs or for hedging  purposes.  Some  derivative
investments the Fund can use are the hedging instruments described below in this
Statement of Additional  Information.  However,  the Fund does not use, and does
not  currently  contemplate  using,  derivatives  or  hedging  instruments  to a
significant degree.

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

     |X| Hedging.  Although the Fund does not  anticipate  the  extensive use of
hedging instruments, the Fund can use hedging instruments. To attempt to protect
against declines in the market value of the Fund's portfolio, to permit the Fund
to retain  unrealized  gains in the value of  portfolio  securities  which  have
appreciated,  or to facilitate  selling securities for investment  reasons,  the
Fund could:

     |_| sell futures contracts,

     |_| buy puts on such futures or on securities, or

     |_| write covered calls on securities or futures. Covered calls may also be
used to increase  the Fund's  income,  but the Manager does not expect to engage
extensively in that practice.

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

     |_| buy futures, or

     |_| buy calls on such futures or on securities.

     The Fund's  strategy of hedging with futures and options on futures will be
incidental  to  the  Fund's  activities  in  the  underlying  cash  market.  The
particular  hedging  instruments the Fund can use are described  below. The Fund
may employ new hedging  instruments and strategies  when they are developed,  if
those investment methods are consistent with the Fund's investment objective and
are permissible under applicable regulations governing the Fund.

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

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

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

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

     At any time prior to expiration of the future,  the Fund may elect to close
out  its  position  by  taking  an  opposite  position,  at  which  time a final
determination  of variation  margin is made and any additional cash must be paid
by or released to the Fund.  Any loss or gain on the future is then  realized by
the Fund for tax purposes.  All futures  transactions (except forward contracts)
are effected  through a clearinghouse  associated with the exchange on which the
contracts are traded.

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

     |_|  Writing  Covered  Call  Options.  The Fund can write  (that is,  sell)
covered calls. If the Fund sells a call option,  it must be covered.  That means
the  Fund  must  own  the  security  subject  to the  call  while  the  call  is
outstanding,  or,  for  certain  types of  calls,  the call  may be  covered  by
segregating  liquid assets to enable the Fund to satisfy its  obligations if the
call is exercised.  Up to 25% of the Fund's total assets may be subject to calls
the Fund writes.

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

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

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

     When the Fund writes an over-the-counter ("OTC") option, it will enter into
an  arrangement  with a primary  U.S.  government  securities  dealer which will
establish  a formula  price at which the Fund  will have the  absolute  right to
repurchase  that OTC option.  The  formula  price will  generally  be based on a
multiple of the premium  received  for the option,  plus the amount by which the
option is exercisable  below the market price of the  underlying  security (that
is, the option is "in the money").  When the Fund writes an OTC option,  it will
treat  as  illiquid  (for  purposes  of  its  restriction  on  holding  illiquid
securities)  the  mark-to-market  value of any OTC  option it holds,  unless the
option is subject to a buy-back agreement by the executing broker.

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

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

     |_| Writing Put  Options.  The Fund may sell put  options.  A put option on
securities  gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer the obligation
to buy,  the  underlying  investment  at the  exercise  price  during the option
period.  The Fund  will not write  puts if,  as a  result,  more than 25% of the
Fund's net assets would be required to be segregated to cover such put options.

     If the Fund  writes a put,  the put must be  covered by  segregated  liquid
assets. The premium the Fund receives from writing a put represents a profit, as
long as the price of the  underlying  investment  remains  equal to or above the
exercise price of the put. However,  the Fund also assumes the obligation during
the option period to buy the underlying  investment from the buyer of the put at
the exercise price, even if the value of the investment falls below the exercise
price.  If a put the Fund has written expires  unexercised,  the Fund realizes a
gain in the amount of the premium less the transaction  costs  incurred.  If the
put is  exercised,  the  Fund  must  fulfill  its  obligation  to  purchase  the
underlying  investment at the exercise price. That price will usually exceed the
market value of the  investment at that time. In that case, the Fund may incur a
loss if it sells the underlying  investment.  That loss will be equal to the sum
of the sale price of the underlying  investment  and the premium  received minus
the sum of the exercise price and any transaction costs the Fund incurred.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     Under  interpretations  of staff  members of the SEC  regarding  applicable
provisions of the Investment  Company Act, when the Fund purchases a future,  it
must  segregate cash or readily  marketable  short-term  debt  instruments in an
amount  equal to the  purchase  price of the  future,  less the  margin  deposit
applicable  to it. The account must be a segregated  account or accounts held by
the Fund's custodian bank.

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

     Certain  forward  contracts the Fund enters into may result in  "straddles"
for federal income tax purposes. The straddle rules may affect the character and
timing  of gains  (or  losses)  recognized  by the Fund on  straddle  positions.
Generally,  a loss  sustained  on the  disposition  of a  position  making  up a
straddle is allowed  only to the extent that the loss  exceeds any  unrecognized
gain in the  offsetting  positions  making up the straddle.  Disallowed  loss is
generally  allowed  at the  point  where  there is no  unrecognized  gain in the
offsetting  positions  making up the  straddle,  or the  offsetting  position is
disposed of.

     Under the Internal  Revenue Code, the following gains or losses are treated
as ordinary income or loss: (1) gains or losses  attributable to fluctuations in
exchange  rates that occur  between the time the Fund accrues  interest or other
receivables or accrues  expenses or other  liabilities  denominated in a foreign
currency and the time the Fund actually  collects such  receivables or pays such
liabilities, and

     (2) gains or losses  attributable to fluctuations in the value of a foreign
currency  between the date of  acquisition  of a debt security  denominated in a
foreign  currency  or  foreign  currency  forward  contracts  and  the  date  of
disposition.

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

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

     |_|    high-quality    (rated   in   the   top   rating    categories    of
nationally-recognized  rating  organizations  or deemed by the  Manager to be of
comparable quality), short-term money market instruments, including those issued
by the U. S. Treasury or other government agencies,

     |_| commercial paper (short-term,  unsecured,  promissory notes of domestic
or  foreign  companies)  rated  in  the  top  rating  category  of a  nationally
recognizes rating organization,

     |_| debt obligations of corporate issuers, rated investment grade (rated at
least Baa by  Moody's  Investors  Service,  Inc.  or at least BBB by  Standard &
Poor's Corporation,  or a comparable rating by another rating organization),  or
unrated  securities  judge by the Manager to have a comparable  quality to rated
securities in those categories,

     |_| preferred stocks,

     |_|  certificates  of deposit and  bankers'  acceptances  of  domestic  and
foreign banks and savings and loan associations,  and

     |_| repurchase  agreements.

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

Other Investment Restrictions

     |X|  What  Are  "Fundamental  Policies?"  Fundamental  policies  are  those
policies that the Fund has adopted to govern its investments that can be changed
only by the vote of a "majority" of the Fund's  outstanding  voting  securities.
Under the  Investment  Company Act, a "majority"  vote is defined as the vote of
the holders of the lesser of:

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

     |_| more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

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

     |X| Does the Fund  Have  Additional  Fundamental  Policies?  The  following
investment  restrictions are fundamental policies of the Fund as contemplated by
the Investment  Company Act. The  limitations  of the following  policies may be
changed to the extent that the corresponding  policies of the Investment Company
Act are changed by amendment, exemptive or interpretive relief.

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

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

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

     |_| The Fund  cannot  invest  25% or more of its  total  assets  in any one
industry.  That limit does not apply to  securities  issued or guaranteed by the
U.S.  government or its agencies and  instrumentalities  or securities issued by
investment companies.

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

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

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

     |X| Does the Fund Have Any Restrictions That Are Not Fundamental?  The Fund
has an investment  restriction that is not a fundamental policy,  which means it
can be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval.

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

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

     For purposes of the Fund's policy not to  concentrate  its  investments  as
described above, the Fund has adopted the industry  classifications set forth in
Appendix  A  to  this  Statement  of  Additional  Information.  This  is  not  a
fundamental policy.

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

     o Public  Disclosure.  The  Fund's  portfolio  holdings  are made  publicly
available  no later than 60 days  after the close of each of the  Fund's  fiscal
quarters in semi-annual and annual reports to shareholders, or in its Statements
of  Investments  on Form  N-Q,  which  are  publicly  available  at the SEC.  In
addition,  the top 10 or  more  holdings  are  posted  on the  OppenheimerFunds'
website  at  www.oppenheimerfunds.com  in the  "Fund  Profiles"  section.  Other
general  information about the Fund's portfolio  investments,  such as portfolio
composition  by asset  class,  industry,  country,  currency,  credit  rating or
maturity, may also be posted with a 15-day lag.

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

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

     A list  of the top 10 or  more  portfolio  securities  holdings  (based  on
invested  assets),  listed by security or by issuer, as of the end of each month
may be disclosed to third parties  (subject to the  procedures  below) no sooner
than 15 days after month-end.

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

     o The third-party recipient must first submit a request for release of Fund
portfolio  holdings,  explaining the business  reason for the request;  o Senior
officers (a Senior Vice President or above) in the Manager's Portfolio and Legal
departments  must approve the  completed  request for release of Fund  portfolio
holdings;  and

     o The  third-party  recipient  must sign the Manager's  portfolio  holdings
non-disclosure agreement before receiving the data, agreeing to keep information
that is not publicly  available  regarding the Fund's holdings  confidential and
agreeing not to trade directly or indirectly based on the information.

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

     o Employees of the Fund's Manager,  Distributor and Transfer Agent who need
to have access to such  information  (as  determined by senior  officers of such
entity),

     o The Fund's certified public accountants and independent registered public
accounting firm,

     o Members of the Fund's Board and the Board's legal counsel,

     o The Fund's custodian bank,

     o A proxy voting service designated by the Fund and its Board,

     o Rating/ranking organizations (such as Lipper and Morningstar),

     o Portfolio  pricing services  retained by the Manager to provide portfolio
security prices, and

     o Dealers, to obtain bids (price quotations if securities are not priced by
the Fund's regular pricing services).

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

     Portfolio holdings information (which may include information on individual
securities  positions  or multiple  securities)  may be provided to the entities
listed below (1) by portfolio traders employed by the Manager in connection with
portfolio  trading,  and (2) by the members of the Manager's  Security Valuation
Group and Accounting  Departments in connection with portfolio  pricing or other
portfolio evaluation purposes:
     o Brokers and dealers in connection with portfolio transactions  (purchases
and sales)
     o Brokers and dealers to obtain bids or bid and asked prices (if securities
held by the Fund are not priced by the fund's regular pricing services)
     o   Dealers to obtain price quotations where the fund is not identified as the owner.

     Portfolio holdings information (which may include information on the Fund's
entire  portfolio or  individual  securities  therein) may be provided by senior
officers  of the  Manager  or  attorneys  on the  legal  staff  of the  Manager,
Distributor, or Transfer Agent, in the following circumstances:
     o Response to legal  process in  litigation  matters,  such as responses to
subpoenas or in class action matters where the Fund may be part of the plaintiff
class (and seeks recovery for losses on a security) or a defendant,
     o Response to regulatory  requests for  information  (the SEC, NASD,  state
securities regulators, and/or foreign securities authorities,  including without
limitation  requests for  information in  inspections or for position  reporting
purposes),
     o To potential  sub-advisers  of  portfolios  (pursuant to  confidentiality
agreements),
     o To consultants for retirement plans for plan  sponsors/discussions at due
diligence meetings (pursuant to confidentiality agreements),
     o Investment  bankers in connection  with merger  discussions  (pursuant to
confidentiality agreements).

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

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

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

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

How the Fund is Managed


     Organization and History. The Fund is an open-end,  diversified  management
investment  company with an unlimited number of authorized  shares of beneficial
interest.  The Fund was  organized  as a  Maryland  corporation  in 1980 but was
reorganized as a Massachusetts business trust in February 1987.


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


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

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


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


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


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

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

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



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

     The Board of Trustees  has an Audit  Committee,  a  Regulatory  & Oversight
Committee,  a Governance  Committee  and a Proxy  Committee.  Each  committee is
comprised  solely  of  Trustees  who  are not  "interested  persons"  under  the
Investment  Company Act (the "Independent  Trustees").  The members of the Audit
Committee are Joel W. Motley (Chairman),  Mary F. Miller, Kenneth A. Randall and
Joseph M. Wikler.  The Audit  Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's fiscal
year  ended  August  31,  2006.  The Audit  Committee  furnishes  the Board with
recommendations  regarding  the selection of the Fund's  independent  registered
public accounting firm (also referred to as the "independent  Auditors").  Other
main functions of the Audit Committee  outlined in the Audit Committee  Charter,
include,  but are not  limited  to:  (i)  reviewing  the  scope and  results  of
financial  statement audits and the audit fees charged;  (ii) reviewing  reports
from the Fund's independent  Auditors  regarding the Fund's internal  accounting
procedures and controls;  (iii)  reviewing  reports from the Manager's  Internal
Audit Department;  (iv) maintaining a separate line of communication between the
Fund's  independent  Auditors and the  Independent  Trustees;  (v) reviewing the
independence of the Fund's  independent  Auditors;  and (vi)  pre-approving  the
provision of any audit or non-audit services by the Fund's independent Auditors,
including tax services,  that are not prohibited by the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act, to
the Fund, the Manager and certain affiliates of the Manager.

     The members of the  Regulatory  & Oversight  Committee  are Robert G. Galli
(Chairman),  Matthew P. Fink, Phillip A. Griffiths,  Joel W. Motley and Brian F.
Wruble.  The Regulatory & Oversight  Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's
fiscal  year  ended  August 31,  2006.  The  Regulatory  &  Oversight  Committee
evaluates  and  reports  to the Board on the  Fund's  contractual  arrangements,
including the Investment Advisory and Distribution  Agreements,  transfer agency
and  shareholder  service  agreements  and  custodian  agreements as well as the
policies  and  procedures  adopted  by the Fund to  comply  with the  Investment
Company Act and other  applicable  law,  among other  duties as set forth in the
Regulatory & Oversight Committee's Charter.

     The  members  of  the   Governance   Committee  are  Phillip  A.  Griffiths
(Chairman),  Kenneth A. Randall, Russell S. Reynolds, Jr. and Peter I. Wold. The
Governance  Committee held 8 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended August
31, 2006. The Governance Committee reviews the Fund's governance guidelines, the
adequacy of the Fund's Codes of Ethics, and develops  qualification criteria for
Board members  consistent  with the Fund's  governance  guidelines,  among other
duties set forth in the Governance Committee's Charter.


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

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

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

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


     The members of the Proxy Committee are Russell S. Reynolds, Jr. (Chairman),
Matthew P. Fink and Mary F. Miller.  The Proxy  Committee held 2 meetings during
the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31, 2006. The Proxy  Committee  provides the
Board with  recommendations for the proxy voting of portfolio securities held by
the Fund and monitors proxy voting by the Fund.

     Trustees  and  Officers  of the Fund.  Except for Mr.  Murphy,  each of the
Trustees is an  Independent  Trustee.  All of the Trustees are also directors or

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


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


     Messrs. Baylin,  Gillespie,  Murphy, Petersen,  Szilagyi,  Vandehey, Wilby,
Wixted and Zack and Mss.  Bloomberg and Ives, who are officers of the Fund, hold
the same offices  with one or more of the other Board I Funds.  As of October 6,
2006,  the  Trustees and  officers of the Fund,  as a group,  owned of record or
beneficially  less than 1% of any class of  shares  of the Fund.  The  foregoing
statement  does not  reflect  ownership  of shares held of record by an employee
benefit plan for  employees of the Manager,  other than the shares  beneficially
owned under that plan by the  officers of the Fund listed  above.  In  addition,
none of the  Independent  Trustees (nor any of their  immediate  family members)
owns securities of either the Manager or the Distributor of the Board I Funds or
of any entity directly or indirectly controlling,  controlled by or under common
control with the Manager or the Distributor.


     Biographical  Information.  The Trustees and officers, their positions with
the Fund,  length of service in such  position(s) and principal  occupations and
business  affiliations  during at least the past  five  years are  listed in the

compensation, if any.


     2. "Estimated  Annual Benefits Upon Retirement" is based on a straight life
payment plan election with the assumption  that a Trustee will retire at the age

benefits  with  respect  to  certain  Board I Funds  as  described  below  under
"Retirement Plan for Trustees."

     3. Includes $7,425 deferred by Mr. Yeutter under the "Deferred Compensation
Plan" described below.

     4. Includes $49,811 estimated  benefits to be paid to Mr. Galli for serving

Funds.

     5. Includes $135,500 paid to Mr. Galli for serving as a director or trustee
of 10 other Oppenheimer funds (at December 31, 2005) that are not Board I Funds.

     6.  Includes   $25,778  deferred  by  Mr.  Griffiths  under  the  "Deferred
Compensation Plan" described below.

     7. Includes $10,311 deferred by Mr. Motley under the "Deferred Compensation
Plan" described below.

     8. Due to actuarial considerations, no additional retirement benefits were

     9. Mr. Wikler and Mr. Wold were elected as Board members of 23 of the Board
I Funds,  including  the Fund as of August  17,  2005.  They had served as Board
members of 10 other Board I Funds prior to that date.

     10. Includes $2,773 deferred by Mr. Wikler under the "Deferred Compensation
Plan" described below.

     11. Includes $6,686 paid to Mr. Wikler for serving as a director or trustee
of one other  Oppenheimer  fund (at  December  31,  2005) that was not a Board I
Fund.

     12.  Includes  $6,686 paid to Mr. Wold for serving as a director or trustee
of one other  Oppenheimer  fund (at  December  31,  2005) that was not a Board I
Fund.

     13. Mr. Wruble was appointed as Trustee of the Board I Funds on October 10,
2005.

     14.  Includes  $45,544  estimated  benefits  to be paid to Mr.  Wruble  for
serving as a director  or  trustee  of 10 other  Oppenheimer  funds that are not
Board I Funds.  Mr. Wruble's service as a director or trustee of such funds will

     15.  Includes  $135,500  paid to Mr.  Wruble for  serving as a director  or

     16. Due to the change of Net Assets,  the  retirement  benefits  reached to
maximum accrual amounts. No additional retirement benefits were accrued.

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

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


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

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


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

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

     Portfolio  Proxy  Voting.  The  Fund has  adopted  Portfolio  Proxy  Voting
Policies  and  Procedures  under  which  the  Fund  votes  proxies  relating  to
securities   ("portfolio   proxies")  held  by  the  Fund.  The  Fund's  primary
consideration in voting portfolio proxies is the financial interests of the Fund
and its shareholders.  The Fund has retained an unaffiliated  third-party as its
agent to vote portfolio  proxies in accordance  with the Fund's  Portfolio Proxy
Voting  Guidelines and to maintain  records of such portfolio proxy voting.  The
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  affiliates or business  relationships.  Such a conflict of interest may
arise, for example,  where the Manager or an affiliate of the Manager manages or
administers  the  assets of a pension  plan or other  investment  account of the
portfolio company  soliciting the proxy or seeks to serve in that capacity.  The
Manager and its affiliates generally seek to avoid such conflicts by maintaining
separate investment decision making processes to prevent the sharing of business
objectives with respect to proposed or actual actions regarding  portfolio proxy
voting   decisions.   Additionally,   the  Manager  employs  the  following  two
procedures:  (1) if the proposal that gives rise to the conflict is specifically
addressed  in the  Guidelines,  the  Manager  will vote the  portfolio  proxy in
accordance with the Guidelines,  provided that they do not provide discretion to
the  Manager  on how to vote on the  matter;  and  (2) if such  proposal  is not
specifically addressed in the Guidelines or the Guidelines provide discretion to
the  Manager  on how to vote,  the  Manager  will  vote in  accordance  with the
third-party proxy voting agent's general recommended  guidelines on the proposal
provided that the Manager has reasonably determined that there is no conflict of
interest on the part of the proxy voting  agent.  If neither of the previous two
procedures provides an appropriate voting recommendation, the Manager may retain
an  independent  fiduciary  to advise the Manager on how to vote the proposal or
may abstain  from voting.  The  Guidelines'  provisions  with respect to certain
routine and non-routine proxy proposals are summarized below:

     o The  Fund  generally  votes  with  the  recommendation  of  the  issuer's
management  on  routine  matters,  including  ratification  of  the  independent
registered public accounting firm, unless circumstances indicate otherwise.

     o The Fund  evaluates  nominees for director  nominated by  management on a
case-by-case basis, examining the following factors,  among others:  Composition
of the board and key board committees,  attendance at board meetings,  corporate
governance  provisions and takeover activity,  long-term company performance and
the nominee's investment in the company.

     o In general,  the Fund opposes  anti-takeover  proposals  and supports the
elimination,  or the  ability of  shareholders  to vote on the  preservation  or
elimination, of anti-takeover proposals, absent unusual circumstances.

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

     o The  Fund  opposes  proposals  to  classify  the  board of  directors  or
trustees.

     o The Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.

     o  The  Fund  opposes  re-pricing  of  stock  options  without  shareholder
approval.

     o The Fund generally  considers  executive  compensation  questions such as
stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary  business  activity.  The Fund
analyzes  stock option  plans,  paying  particular  attention to their  dilutive
effect. While the Fund generally supports management proposals, the Fund opposes
plans it considers to be excessive.

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



     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  managers of the
Fund  are  employed  by the  Manager  and are the  persons  who are  principally
responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio. Other members
of the Manager's Equity Portfolio Department provide the portfolio managers with
counsel and support in managing the Fund's portfolio.


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

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

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

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

     Portfolio Managers. The Fund's portfolio is managed by William L. Wilby and
Marc L. Baylin  (each is referred to as a "Portfolio  Manager" and  collectively
they are referred to as the "Portfolio Managers").  They are the persons who are
responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's investments.

     Other  Accounts  Managed.  In addition to  managing  the Fund's  investment
portfolio,  Messrs. Wilby and Baylin also manage other investment  portfolios on
behalf  of  the  Manager  or  its  affiliates.   The  following  table  provides
information  regarding  those  portfolios as of August 31, 2006. No portfolio or
account has an advisory fee based on performance:

     1. In millions.

     2. Does not include  personal  accounts  of  portfolio  managers  and their
families, which are subject to the Code of Ethics.

     As indicated above, each of the Portfolio  Managers also manage other funds
and accounts.  Potentially, at times, those responsibilities could conflict with
the interests of the Fund.  That may occur whether the investment  strategies of
the  other  fund or  account  are the same as, or  different  from,  the  Fund's
investment  objectives and strategies.  For example,  the Portfolio Managers may
need to allocate investment  opportunities  between the Fund and another fund or
account  having similar  objectives or  strategies,  or they 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 Manager have the same  management  fee. If the  management  fee structure of
another  fund or  account  is more  advantageous  to the  Manager  than  the fee
structure  of the Fund,  the Manager  could have an incentive to favor the other
fund or account. However, the Manager's compliance procedures and Code of Ethics
recognize  the  Manager's  fiduciary  obligations  to treat all of its  clients,
including  the Fund,  fairly and  equitably,  and are  designed to preclude  the
Portfolio  Managers 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. At different  times,  one or more of the Fund's  Portfolio
Managers  may manage  other funds or accounts  with  investment  objectives  and
strategies  that are  similar  to  those of the  Fund,  or may  manage  funds or
accounts with investment objectives and strategies that are different from those
of the Fund.

     Compensation of the Portfolio  Managers.  The Fund's Portfolio Managers are
employed and  compensated  by the  Manager,  not the Fund.  Under the  Manager's
compensation  program for its portfolio managers and portfolio  analysts,  their
compensation  is based  primarily on the investment  performance  results of the
funds and accounts  they  manage,  rather than on the  financial  success of the
Manager.  This is  intended  to align  the  portfolio  managers'  and  analysts'
interests  with the success of the funds and accounts and their  investors.  The
Manager's  compensation  structure  is  designed  to attract  and retain  highly
qualified investment management  professionals and to reward individual and team
contributions  toward  creating  shareholder  value. As of August 31, 2006, each
Portfolio Manager's  compensation consisted of three elements: a base salary, an
annual discretionary bonus and eligibility to participate in long-term awards of
options and  appreciation  rights in regard to the common stock of the Manager's
holding  company  parent.  Senior  portfolio  managers  may also be  eligible to
participate in the Manager's deferred compensation plan.

     To help the Manager  attract and retain  talent,  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,  to help
the  Manager  attract  and  retain  talent.  The annual  discretionary  bonus is
determined  by  senior  management  of the  Manager  and is based on a number of
factors, including a fund's pre-tax performance for periods of up to five years,
measured  against an appropriate  benchmark  selected by management.  The Lipper
benchmark  with  respect to the Fund is Lipper - Large Cap Growth  Funds.  Other
factors include management quality (such as style consistency,  risk management,
sector coverage,  team leadership and coaching) and organizational  development.
The  Portfolio  Managers'  compensation  is not based on the total  value of the
Fund's portfolio assets, although the Fund's investment performance may increase
those  assets.  The  compensation  structure is also  intended to be  internally
equitable and serve to reduce  potential  conflicts of interest between the Fund
and other funds and accounts managed by the Portfolio Managers. The compensation
structure of the other funds  managed by the  Portfolio  Managers is the same as
the compensation structure of the Fund, described above.

     Ownership of Fund Shares.  As of August 31, 2006,  the  Portfolio  Managers
beneficially owned shares of the Fund as follows:



                                                   Range of Shares Beneficially

             Marc L. Baylin                                  $50,001-$100,000




Brokerage Policies of the Fund


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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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


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

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

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


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


     During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, the Fund paid
the total brokerage  commissions indicated in the chart below. During the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2006,  the Fund paid  $11,898,868  in commissions to firms
that  provide  brokerage  and  research  services  to the Fund with  respect  to
$12,072,721,826 of aggregate portfolio transactions.  All such transactions were
on a "best  execution"  basis,  as described  above.  The  provision of research
services was not necessarily a factor in the placement of all such transactions.

Distribution and Service Plans

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

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

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



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

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


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

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

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

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

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


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

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


     For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006  payments  under the Class A plan
totaled $13,448,667, of which $123,416 was retained by the Distributor under the
arrangement described above,  regarding  grandfathered  retirement accounts, and
included $550,784 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's  parent company. Any
unreimbursed  expenses the Distributor  incurs with respect to Class A shares in
any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years. The Distributor may not
use  payments  received  under  the  Class  A plan  to pay  any of its  interest
expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

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

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


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

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

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

     o pays sales  concessions to authorized  brokers and dealers at the time of
sale and pays service fees as described  above,

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

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

     o bears the costs of sales literature,  advertising and prospectuses (other
than those furnished to current  shareholders) and state "blue sky" registration
fees and certain other  distribution  expenses,

     o may not be able to adequately compensate dealers that sell Class B, Class
C and Class N shares without receiving payment under the plans and therefore may
not be able to offer such Classes for sale absent the plans,

     o receives  payments under the plans  consistent  with the service fees and
asset-based sales charges paid by other  non-proprietary funds that charge 12b-1
fees,

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

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

     o may not be able to continue  providing,  at the same or at a lesser cost,
the same quality  distribution  sales  efforts and  services,  or to obtain such
services from brokers and dealers, if the plan payments were to be discontinued.

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

Conduct Rules of the NASD on payments of  asset-based  sales charges and service
fees.



Payments to Fund Intermediaries


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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

     o  transactional  support,  one-time  charges for setting up access for the
Fund or other  Oppenheimer funds on particular  trading systems,  and paying the
intermediary's networking fees;

     o program  support,  such as expenses  related to including the Oppenheimer
funds in retirement plans, college savings plans, fee-based advisory or wrap fee
programs,  fund  "supermarkets",  bank or trust  company  products or  insurance
companies' variable annuity or variable life insurance products;

     o  placement  on  the  dealer's   list  of  offered   funds  and  providing
representatives  of the  Distributor  with access to a financial  intermediary's
sales meetings, sales representatives and management representatives.

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


     For  the  year  ended   December  31,   2005,   the   following   financial
intermediaries that are broker-dealers offering shares of the Oppenheimer funds,
and/or  their  respective  affiliates,   received  revenue  sharing  or  similar
distribution-related  payments from the Manager or Distributor  for marketing or
program support:

Performance of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

     An  investment  in  the  Fund  is not  insured  by the  FDIC  or any  other
government agency.

     The  principal  value of the  Fund's  shares,  and  total  returns  are not
guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.

     When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than
their  original  cost.

     Total returns for any given past period  represent  historical  performance
information  and are not, and should not be  considered,  a prediction of future
returns.

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

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


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


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



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


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


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

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

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


     Cumulative Total Return. The "cumulative total return" calculation measures
the change in value of a hypothetical investment of $1,000 over an entire period
of years. Its

     calculation  uses = Total Return some of the same factors as average annual
total return, but it does not average the rate of return on an annual basis.

     Cumulative total return is determined as follows:


     ERV - P
     --------
       P



     Total Returns at Net Asset Value. From time to time the Fund may also quote
a cumulative  or an average  annual  total return "at net asset value"  (without
deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B, Class C or Class N shares.  There
is no sales  charge on Class Y shares.  Each is based on the  difference  in net
asset  value  per  share  at the  beginning  and  the  end of the  period  for a
hypothetical  investment in that class of shares (without considering  front-end
or  contingent   deferred  sales  charges)  and  takes  into  consideration  the
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.

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

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


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

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


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

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

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

     From  time to time the Fund may  include  in its  advertisements  and sales
literature the total return  performance of a  hypothetical  investment  account
that  includes  shares of the Fund and other  Oppenheimer  funds.  The  combined
account may be part of an illustration of an asset  allocation  model or similar
presentation.  The account  performance may combine total return  performance of
the Fund and the total return performance of other Oppenheimer funds included in
the account.  Additionally,  from time to time,  the Fund's  advertisements  and
sales  literature  may  include,  for  illustrative  or  comparative   purposes,
statistical  data or other  information  about  general or  specific  market and
economic conditions. That may include, for example,

     o information  about the  performance of certain  securities or commodities
markets or segments of those markets,

     o  information  about  the  performance  of  the  economies  of  particular
countries or regions,

     o the earnings of companies included in segments of particular  industries,
sectors, securities markets, countries or regions,

     o the  availability  of  different  types of  securities  or  offerings  of
securities,

     o information  relating to the gross national or gross domestic  product of
the United States or other countries or regions,

     o  comparisons   of  various  market  sectors  or  indices  to  demonstrate
performance, risk, or other characteristics of the Fund.



ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT


How to Buy Shares

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


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


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

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

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

Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund                   Centennial New York Tax Exempt Trust

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


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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     5. The shares  eligible  for  purchase  under the Letter (or the holding of
which may be counted toward completion of a Letter) include:

     (a) Class A shares sold with a front-end sales charge or subject to a Class
A contingent deferred sales charge,

     (b) Class B and Class C shares of other  Oppenheimer funds acquired subject
to a contingent deferred sales charge, and

     (c) Class A, Class B or Class C shares  acquired  by exchange of either (1)
Class A shares of one of the other  Oppenheimer funds that were acquired subject
to a Class A initial or contingent deferred sales charge or (2) Class B or Class
C shares of one of the other  Oppenheimer  funds that were acquired subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge.

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

     |X|  Availability of Class N Shares.  In addition to the description of the
types of  retirement  plans which may purchase  Class N shares  contained in the
prospectus,  Class N shares also are offered to the following:

     o to all  rollover  IRAs  (including  SEP IRAs and SIMPLE  IRAs),

     o  to  all  rollover   contributions   made  to  Individual  401(k)  plans,
Profit-Sharing Plans and Money Purchase Pension Plans,

     o to all direct  rollovers  from  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Pinnacle  and
Ascender retirement plans,

     o to all trustee-to-trustee IRA transfers,

     o to all 90-24  type  403(b)  transfers,

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

     o to Retirement  Plans  qualified  under  Sections  401(a) or 401(k) of the
Internal  Revenue  Code,  the  recordkeeper  or the plan  sponsor  for which has
entered into a special agreement with the Distributor,

     o to Retirement  Plans of a plan sponsor where the aggregate  assets of all
such  plans  invested  in the  Oppenheimer  funds  is  $500,000  or  more,

     o to Retirement  Plans with at least 100 eligible  employees or $500,000 or
more in plan assets,

     o to  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Ascender  401(k)  plans  that pay for the
purchase  with  the  redemption  proceeds  of  Class  A  shares  of one or  more
Oppenheimer  funds, and

     o to certain  customers of broker-dealers  and financial  advisors that are
identified in a special agreement between the broker-dealer or financial advisor
and the Distributor for that purpose.

     The sales  concession  and the advance of the service  fee, as described in
the Prospectus, will not be paid to dealers of record on sales of Class N shares
on:

     purchases  of Class N shares in amounts of $500,000 or more by a retirement
plan that pays for the purchase with the  redemption  proceeds of Class A shares
of  one  or   more   Oppenheimer   funds   (other   than   rollovers   from   an
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Pinnacle or Ascender 401(k) plan to any IRA invested
in the Oppenheimer funds),

     o  purchases  of  Class  N  shares  in  amounts  of  $500,000  or more by a
retirement plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class
C shares  of one or more  Oppenheimer  funds  held by the plan for more than one
year  (other  than  rollovers  from an  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Pinnacle  or
Ascender 401(k) plan to any IRA invested in the Oppenheimer funds), and

     on purchases of Class N shares by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle or
Ascender 401(k) plan made with the redemption  proceeds of Class A shares of one
or more Oppenheimer funds.

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

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

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


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


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


     Listed  below  are  certain  cases in which  the Fund has  elected,  in its
discretion, not to assess the Fund Account Fees. These exceptions are subject to
change:

     o A fund account whose shares were  acquired  after  September  30th of the
prior year;
     o A fund  account  that  has a  balance  below  $500  due to the  automatic
conversion of shares from Class B to


Class A shares.  However,  once all Class B shares held in the account have
been  converted to Class A shares the new account  balance may become subject to
the Minimum Balance Fee;

     o Accounts of  shareholders  who elect to access  their  account  documents
electronically via eDoc Direct;

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

     o Accounts of shareholders that are held by  broker-dealers  under the NSCC
Fund/SERV system;

     o Accounts held under the Oppenheimer Legacy Program and/or holding certain
Oppenheimer  Variable  Account Funds;

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

     o Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange or on NASDAQ(R)are
valued as follows:

     (1) if last sale information is regularly reported,  they are valued at the
last reported sale price on the

principal exchange on which they are traded or on NASDAQ(R), as applicable,
on that day, or

     (2) if last sale information is not available on a valuation date, they are
valued at the last  reported sale price  preceding  the valuation  date if it is
within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked"  prices on the valuation date
or, if not, at the closing "bid" price on the valuation date.

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

     (1) at the last sale price available to the pricing service approved by the
Board of Trustees, or

     (2) at the last sale price  obtained by the Manager  from the report of the
principal  exchange on which the security is traded at its last trading  session
on or immediately before the valuation date, or

     (3) at the mean  between the "bid" and  "asked"  prices  obtained  from the
principal  exchange  on  which  the  security  is  traded  or,  on the  basis of
reasonable inquiry, from two market makers in the security.

     o Long-term  debt  securities  having a remaining  maturity in excess of 60
days  are  valued  based  on the mean  between  the  "bid"  and  "asked"  prices
determined  by a  portfolio  pricing  service  approved  by the Fund's  Board of
Trustees  or  obtained  by the  Manager  from two  active  market  makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.

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

     (1) debt  instruments  that  have a  maturity  of more  than 397 days  when
issued,

     (2) debt  instruments  that had a maturity  of 397 days or less when issued
and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and

     (3) non-money  market debt  instruments  that had a maturity of 397 days or
less when issued and which have a remaining  maturity of 60 days or less.

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

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

     (2) debt  instruments  held by a money  market  fund that have a  remaining
maturity of 397 days or less.

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

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


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

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


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


How to Sell Shares

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

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

     Reinvestment  Privilege.  Within six months of a redemption,  a shareholder
may reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of:

     o Class A shares  purchased  subject to an initial  sales charge or Class A
shares on which a contingent deferred sales charge was paid, or

     o Class B shares that were subject to the Class B contingent deferred sales
charge when redeemed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     (1) state the reason for the distribution;

     (2) state the owner's  awareness of tax  penalties if the  distribution  is
premature; and

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Exchange Shares

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

     o  Oppenheimer  Money  Market  Fund,  Inc.  only offers Class A and Class Y
shares.

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

     o Class B and Class C shares of  Oppenheimer  Cash  Reserves are  generally
available only by exchange from

the  same   class  of  shares  of  other   Oppenheimer   funds  or  through
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k) plans.

     o  Class  M  shares  of  Oppenheimer  Convertible  Securities  Fund  may be
exchanged only for Class A shares of other  Oppenheimer  funds.  They may not be
acquired  by  exchange  of shares of any  class of any other  Oppenheimer  funds
except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash
Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M shares.

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

     o Shares of the Fund acquired by reinvestment of dividends or distributions
from any of the other  Oppenheimer  funds or from any unit investment  trust for
which  reinvestment  arrangements  have been made  with the  Distributor  may be
exchanged  at net asset  value for  shares of the same class of any of the other
Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares.

     o  Shares  of  Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected  Main  Street  Fund may be
exchanged  at net asset  value for  shares of the same class of any of the other
Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,  shareholders are
not  permitted  to  exchange  shares of other  Oppenheimer  funds for  shares of
Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected Main Street Fund until after the expiration of
the warranty period (8/5/2010).

     o Shares of  Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected  Main  Street Fund II may be
exchanged  at net asset  value for  shares of the same class of any of the other
Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,  shareholders are
not  permitted  to  exchange  shares of other  Oppenheimer  funds for  shares of
Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected Main Street Fund II until after the expiration
of the warranty period (3/3/2011).

     o Shares of  Oppenheimer  Principal  Protected  Main Street Fund III may be
exchanged  at net asset  value for  shares of the same class of any of the other
Oppenheimer funds into which you may exchange shares. However,  shareholders are
not  permitted  to  exchange  shares of other  Oppenheimer  funds for  shares of
Oppenheimer  Principal Protected Main Street Fund III until after the expiration
of the warranty period (12/16/2011).

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


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

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


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

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


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

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

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

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


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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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


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

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment
company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The
Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).

      The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares.
Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset
value plus a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are
sold without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge (CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement
plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those
accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without
either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the institutional investor
may impose charges on those accounts. All classes of shares have identical
rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive
voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and
net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses,
such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder
communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N have
separate distribution and/or service plans. No such plan has been adopted for
Class Y shares. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six
years after the date of purchase.

      The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES VALUATION. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as
of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"), normally 4:00 P.M.
Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for business. Securities may be
valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees. Securities listed or traded on National
Stock Exchanges or other domestic exchanges are valued based on the last sale
price of the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's
assets are valued. Securities traded on NASDAQ(R) are valued based on the
closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund's assets are
valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price
on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and
"asked" prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities traded on
foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing
service, prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of
a sale, the security is valued at the official closing price on the principal
exchange. Corporate, government and municipal debt instruments having a
remaining maturity in excess of sixty days and all mortgage-backed securities
will be valued at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices. Futures
contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the
final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as
reported by such principal exchange at its


                   36 | OPPENHEIMER CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND



trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Fund's
assets are valued. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market
quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value. Foreign and
domestic securities whose values have been materially affected by what the
Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund's assets are
valued but after the close of their respective exchanges will be fair valued.
Fair value is determined in good faith using consistently applied procedures
under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money market type"
debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Fund's accounting records are maintained in
U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and
amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign
investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the New
York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each
day the Exchange is open for business. Foreign exchange rates may be valued
primarily using dealer supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees.

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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other affiliated funds
advised by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading
accounts on a daily basis. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase
agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held
by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that
the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest
and principal. In the event of default by the other party to the agreement,
retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a
daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
assets represented by such class.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued

Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against
the operations of that class.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEDERAL TAXES. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net
realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any,
to shareholders, therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is
required.

The tax components of capital shown in the table below represent distribution
requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the
Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years and
unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes.

                                                              NET UNREALIZED

1. As of August 31, 2006, the Fund had $424,180,295 of net capital loss
carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and
thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions. As of August 31, 2006, details
of the capital loss carryforwards were as follows:

                                        ============

2. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006, the Fund utilized $30,330,104
of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal
year.

3. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005, the Fund utilized $278,650,934
of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal
year.

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for
financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and
distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net
realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal
income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the
fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in
which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.

Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for August 31, 2006.
Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of
unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes as of August 31, 2006 are noted below. The primary
difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and
other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses
or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for the
Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees
paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended August
31, 2006, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by $10,518 and
payments of $98,894 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an accumulated
liability of $986,913 as of August 31, 2006.

      The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a
portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund.
For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan,
deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in
shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The
Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in
amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal
to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component
of "Other" within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the
Fund, and

will not materially affect the Fund's assets, liabilities or net investment
income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance to
the Plan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if
any, are declared and paid annually.

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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays
OFS a per account fee. For the year ended August 31, 2006, the Fund paid
$19,713,914 to OFS for services to the Fund.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN (12b-1) FEES. Under its General Distributor's
Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
the Fund's classes of shares.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SERVICE PLAN FOR CLASS A SHARES. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for
services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made
periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets
of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees
to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for
providing personal services and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with
respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent
periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plan are detailed in the Statement
of Operations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS FOR CLASS B, CLASS C AND CLASS N SHARES. The Fund
has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
shares to compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the
distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the plans, the Fund
pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and
Class C shares and 0.25% on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a
service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or
Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the
Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the
Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of
the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior
to the effective date of such termination. The Distributor's aggregate
uncompensated expenses under the plan at August 31, 2006 for Class B, Class C
and Class N shares were $15,236,268, $11,185,152 and $3,393,557, respectively.
Fees incurred by the Fund under the plans are detailed in the Statement of
Operations.

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

prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the
Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on
the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period

WAIVERS AND REIMBURSEMENTS OF EXPENSES. OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit

average annual net assets per class. During the year ended August 31, 2006, OFS
waived $5,846, $3,770 and $6,370 for Class B, Class N and Class Y shares,
respectively. This undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS

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

      The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined

using prevailing foreign currency exchange rates. Unrealized appreciation and
depreciation on foreign currency contracts are reported in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of
Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation.

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

As of August 31, 2006, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. SECURITIES LENDING

The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. In return, the Fund receives collateral in the form of
securities, letters of credit or cash, against the loaned securities and
maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the
loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned
securities is determined at the close of business each day. If the Fund is
undercollateralized at the close of business due to an increase in market value
of securities on loan, additional collateral is requested from the borrowing
counterparty and is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash
collateral may be invested in approved investments and the Fund bears the risk
of any loss in value of these investments. The Fund retains a portion of the
interest earned from the collateral. If the borrower defaults on its obligation
to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund
could experience delays and cost in recovering the securities loaned or in
gaining access to the collateral. The Fund continues to receive the economic
benefit of interest or dividends paid on the securities loaned in the form of a
substitute payment received from the borrower. As of August 31, 2006, the Fund
had no securities on loan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

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


                   44 | OPPENHEIMER CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND



recorded in respect of any tax position that, in Management's judgment, will not
be fully realized. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2006. As of August 31, 2006, the Manager is evaluating the implications of
FIN 48. Its impact in the Fund's financial statements has not yet been
determined.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. LITIGATION

A consolidated amended complaint was filed as a putative class action against
the Manager and the Transfer Agent and other defendants (including 51 of the
Oppenheimer funds including the Fund) in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York on January 10, 2005 and was amended on March 4,
2005. The complaint alleged, among other things, that the Manager charged
excessive fees for distribution and other costs, and that by permitting and/or
participating in those actions, the Directors/Trustees and the Officers of the
funds breached their fiduciary duties to fund shareholders under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 and at common law. The plaintiffs sought unspecified
damages, an accounting of all fees paid, and an award of attorneys' fees and
litigation expenses.

      In response to the defendants' motions to dismiss the suit, seven of the
eight counts in the complaint, including the claims against certain of the
Oppenheimer funds, as nominal defendants, and against certain present and former
Directors, Trustees and Officers of the funds, and the Distributor, as
defendants, were dismissed with prejudice, by court order dated March 10, 2006,
and the remaining count against the Manager and the Transfer Agent was dismissed
with prejudice by court order dated April 5, 2006. The plaintiffs filed an
appeal of those dismissals on May 11, 2006.

      The Manager believes that the allegations contained in the complaint are
without merit and that there are substantial grounds to sustain the district
court's rulings. The Manager also believes that it is premature to render any
opinion as to the likelihood of an outcome unfavorable to it, the funds, the
Directors/Trustees or the Officers on the appeal of the decisions of the
district court, and that no estimate can yet be made with any degree of
certainty as to the amount or range of any potential loss.

OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

     In certain  cases,  the initial  sales  charge that applies to purchases of
Class A shares(2) of the  Oppenheimer  funds or the  contingent  deferred  sales
charge  that may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares  may be  waived.(3)
That is because of the economies of sales efforts  realized by  OppenheimerFunds
Distributor,  Inc.,  (referred to in this document as the "Distributor"),  or by
dealers  or other  financial  institutions  that offer  those  shares to certain
classes of investors. Not all waivers apply to all funds.

     For  the  purposes  of  some  of the  waivers  described  below  and in the
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer
funds, the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:

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

     2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,

     3) employee benefit plans(4)

     4) Group Retirement Plans(5)

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

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

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

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



   Applicability of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in Certain Cases


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

     There is no initial  sales  charge on purchases of Class A shares of any of
the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases may be
subject to the Class A contingent  deferred  sales charge if redeemed  within 18
months (24 months in the case of Oppenheimer  Rochester National  Municipals and
Rochester  Fund  Municipals)  of the  beginning of the  calendar  month of their
purchase, as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver described elsewhere in
this Appendix  applies to the  redemption).  Additionally,  on shares  purchased
under these  waivers that are subject to the Class A contingent  deferred  sales
charge,  the  Distributor  will pay the applicable  concession  described in the
Prospectus  under "Class A Contingent  Deferred  Sales  Charge."(6)  This waiver
provision applies to:

     |_| Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.

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

     |_|  Purchases  by  an  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored  Rollover  IRA,  if  the
purchases are made:
     1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser that has
made special  arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases,  or
     2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified  Retirement Plan
if the  administrator  of that  Plan  has  made  special  arrangements  with the
Distributor for those purchases.

     |_|  Purchases of Class A shares by  Retirement  Plans that have any of the
following record-keeping arrangements:
     1) The record  keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith,
Inc.  ("Merrill  Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the Retirement  Plan. On
the date the plan  sponsor  signs  the  record-keeping  service  agreement  with
Merrill Lynch,  the Plan must have $3 million or more of its assets  invested in
(a)  mutual  funds,  other than  those  advised  or  managed  by  Merrill  Lynch
Investment  Management,  L.P. ("MLIM"),  that are made available under a Service
Agreement  between Merrill Lynch and the mutual fund's principal  underwriter or
distributor,  and (b) funds  advised or managed by MLIM (the funds  described in
(a) and (b) are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
     2) The record  keeping  for the  Retirement  Plan is  performed  on a daily
valuation  basis by a record keeper whose services are provided under a contract
or arrangement  between the Retirement  Plan and Merrill Lynch.  On the date the
plan sponsor signs the record keeping service  agreement with Merrill Lynch, the
Plan must have $5 million or more of its assets  (excluding  assets  invested in
money market funds)  invested in Applicable  Investments.  3) The record keeping
for a Retirement  Plan is handled under a service  agreement  with Merrill Lynch
and on the date the plan sponsor signs that agreement,  the Plan has 500 or more
eligible employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion manager).

initial  sales  charge  rates  for  Class  A  shares  purchased  by  members  of
"Associations" formed for any purpose other than the purchase of securities. The
rates in the  table  apply if that  Association  purchased  shares of any of the
Former Quest for Value Funds or received a proposal to purchase such shares from
OCC Distributors prior to November 24, 1995.

     Investors  who  purchased  Class A shares  from a dealer that is or was not

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


     |X| Waivers for Redemptions of Shares  Purchased Prior to March 6, 1995. In
the following  cases,  the  contingent  deferred sales charge will be waived for

shares must have been  acquired  by the merger of a Former  Quest for Value Fund
into the fund or by exchange  from an  Oppenheimer  fund that was a Former Quest
for Value Fund or into  which  such fund  merged.  Those  shares  must have been
purchased  prior to March 6, 1995 in  connection  with: o  withdrawals  under an
automatic withdrawal plan holding only either Class B or Class C shares if the

annual  withdrawal  does not exceed 10% of the initial value of the account
value, adjusted annually, and

     o liquidation of a  shareholder's  account if the aggregate net asset value
of shares held in the account is less than the  required  minimum  value of such
accounts.

     |X| Waivers for  Redemptions of Shares  Purchased on or After March 6, 1995
but Prior to November 24, 1995. In the following cases, the contingent  deferred
sales  charge  will be waived  for  redemptions  of Class A,  Class B or Class C

Oppenheimer  fund  that was a Former  Quest For Value  Fund or into  which  such
Former Quest for Value Fund merged.  Those shares must have been purchased on or
after March 6, 1995, but prior to November 24, 1995:

     o redemptions  following the death or disability of the  shareholder(s) (as
evidenced by a  determination  of total  disability by the U.S.  Social Security
Administration);

     o withdrawals  under an automatic  withdrawal plan (but only for Class B or
Class C shares)  where the annual  withdrawals  do not exceed 10% of the initial
value of the account value; adjusted annually, and

     o liquidation of a  shareholder's  account if the aggregate net asset value
of shares held in the account is less than the required minimum account value.

     A shareholder's  account will be credited with the amount of any contingent
deferred  sales charge paid on the redemption of any Class A, Class B or Class C
shares of the  Oppenheimer  fund  described  in this section if the proceeds are
invested  in the same Class of shares in that fund or another  Oppenheimer  fund
within 90 days after redemption.

section):

     Oppenheimer Value Fund and
     are  modified  as  described  below for those  Fund  shareholders  who were
shareholders  of the  following  funds  (referred to as the "Former  Connecticut
Mutual  Funds")  on  March 1,  1996,  when  OppenheimerFunds,  Inc.  became  the
investment adviser to the Former  Connecticut  Mutual Funds:  Connecticut Mutual

Government   Securities  Account  CMIA  LifeSpan  Capital  Appreciation  Account

A.   Prior Class A CDSC and Class A Sales Charge Waivers.

     |X| Class A Contingent  Deferred Sales Charge.  Certain  shareholders  of a
Fund and the other Former  Connecticut  Mutual Funds are entitled to continue to
make additional purchases of Class A shares at net asset value without a Class A
initial  sales  charge,  but subject to the Class A  contingent  deferred  sales
charge that was in effect  prior to March 18,  1996 (the "prior  Class A CDSC").
Under the prior Class A CDSC,  if any of those  shares are  redeemed  within one
year of purchase, they will be assessed a 1% contingent deferred sales charge on
an amount equal to the current  market value or the original  purchase  price of
the shares  sold,  whichever  is smaller  (in such  redemptions,  any shares not
subject to the prior Class A CDSC will be redeemed first).

     Those shareholders who are eligible for the prior Class A CDSC are:

     1) persons  whose  purchases  of Class A shares of a Fund and other  Former
Connecticut  Mutual Funds were $500,000  prior to March 18, 1996, as a result of
direct  purchases  or  purchases  pursuant  to the Fund's  policies  on Combined
Purchases or Rights of Accumulation, who still hold those shares in that Fund or
other Former Connecticut Mutual Funds, and

     2) persons whose intended  purchases under a Statement of Intention entered
into prior to March 18, 1996, with the former general  distributor of the Former
Connecticut  Mutual Funds to purchase  shares  valued at $500,000 or more over a
13-month  period  entitled  those persons to purchase  shares at net asset value
without being subject to the Class A initial sales charge

     Any of the Class A shares of a Fund and the other Former Connecticut Mutual
Funds that were  purchased  at net asset value prior to March 18,  1996,  remain
subject to the prior Class A CDSC, or if any additional  shares are purchased by
those  shareholders at net asset value pursuant to this arrangement they will be
subject to the prior Class A CDSC.

     |X| Class A Sales Charge Waivers.  Additional  Class A shares of a Fund may
be purchased without a sales charge, by a person who was in one (or more) of the
categories  below and acquired Class A shares prior to March 18, 1996, and still
holds  Class A shares:

     1) any purchaser, provided the total initial amount invested in the Fund or
any one or more of the Former Connecticut Mutual Funds totaled $500,000 or more,
including  investments  made  pursuant to the Combined  Purchases,  Statement of
Intention  and  Rights of  Accumulation  features  available  at the time of the
initial  purchase and such investment is still held in one or more of the Former
Connecticut  Mutual  Funds  or a  Fund  into  which  such  Fund  merged;

     2) any  participant  in a qualified  plan,  provided that the total initial
amount  invested  by the  plan in the  Fund  or any  one or  more of the  Former
Connecticut  Mutual Funds totaled  $500,000 or more;

     3)  Directors  of the  Fund or any one or  more of the  Former  Connecticut
Mutual Funds and members of their immediate families;

     4)  employee  benefit  plans  sponsored  by  Connecticut  Mutual  Financial
Services,  L.L.C.  ("CMFS"),  the prior  distributor  of the Former  Connecticut
Mutual Funds, and its affiliated companies;

     5) one or more  members of a group of at least 1,000  persons  (and persons
who are  retirees  from such group)  engaged in a common  business,  profession,
civic or  charitable  endeavor  or other  activity,  and the  spouses  and minor
dependent children of such persons, pursuant to a marketing program between CMFS
and such group;  and

     6) an  institution  acting as a  fiduciary  on behalf of an  individual  or
individuals,  if such institution was directly  compensated by the individual(s)
for  recommending  the  purchase of the shares of the Fund or any one or more of
the Former Connecticut  Mutual Funds,  provided the institution had an agreement
with CMFS.

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

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

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

     In  addition  to the  waivers  set  forth  in the  Prospectus  and in  this
Appendix,  above,  the  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  will be waived  for
redemptions  of Class A and Class B shares of a Fund and exchanges of Class A or
Class B shares of a Fund into Class A or Class B shares of a Former  Connecticut
Mutual  Fund  provided  that the  Class A or  Class B  shares  of the Fund to be
redeemed or  exchanged  were (i)  acquired  prior to March 18, 1996 or (ii) were
acquired  by exchange  from an  Oppenheimer  fund that was a Former  Connecticut
Mutual Fund.  Additionally,  the shares of such Former  Connecticut  Mutual Fund
must have been purchased prior to March 18, 1996:

     1) by the estate of a deceased  shareholder;

     2) upon the disability of a shareholder,  as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of
the  Internal  Revenue  Code;

     3) for retirement distributions (or loans) to participants or beneficiaries
from  retirement  plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 403(b)(7)of the Code,
or from IRAs, deferred compensation plans created under Section 457 of the Code,
or other employee benefit plans; as tax-free returns of excess  contributions to
such retirement or employee benefit plans;

     5) in  whole or in part,  in  connection  with  shares  sold to any  state,
county,  or city,  or any  instrumentality,  department,  authority,  or  agency
thereof,  that is prohibited by applicable  investment  laws from paying a sales
charge or concession in connection with the purchase of shares of any registered
investment management company;

     6) in  connection  with  the  redemption  of  shares  of the  Fund due to a
combination with another investment  company by virtue of a merger,  acquisition
or similar reorganization transaction;

     7) in connection with the Fund's right to involuntarily redeem or liquidate
the Fund;

     8) in connection  with automatic  redemptions of Class A shares and Class B
shares in certain  retirement plan accounts pursuant to an Automatic  Withdrawal
Plan but limited to no more than 12% of the original  value  annually;  or

     9) as  involuntary  redemptions  of shares by  operation  of law,  or under
procedures set forth in the Fund's Articles of  Incorporation,  or as adopted by
the Board of Directors of the Fund. VI. Special  Reduced Sales Charge for Former
Shareholders of Advance America Funds, Inc.


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

     VII.  Sales Charge  Waivers on  Purchases of Class M Shares of  Oppenheimer
Convertible Securities Fund


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

     |_| the Manager and its affiliates,

     |_| present or former  officers,  directors,  trustees and  employees  (and
their  "immediate  families" as defined in the Fund's  Statement  of  Additional
Information) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates,  and retirement  plans
established  by them or the  prior  investment  advisor  of the Fund  for  their
employees,

     |_|  registered  management  investment  companies or separate  accounts of
insurance  companies  that had an  agreement  with the Fund's  prior  investment
advisor or distributor for that purpose,

     |_| dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
they purchase  shares for their own accounts or for  retirement  plans for their
employees,

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

     |_| dealers,  brokers,  or registered  investment advisors that had entered
into an agreement  with the  Distributor  or the prior  distributor  of the Fund
specifically  providing  for the use of Class M shares  of the Fund in  specific
investment products made available to their clients, and

     |_| dealers,  brokers or  registered  investment  advisors that had entered
into an agreement with the Distributor or prior distributor of the Fund's shares
to sell shares to defined  contribution  employee retirement plans for which the
dealer, broker, or investment advisor provides administrative services.


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

     (2) Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.

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

     (4) An "employee  benefit plan" means any plan or  arrangement,  whether or
not it is  "qualified"  under the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  under which Class N
shares of an  Oppenheimer  fund or funds are  purchased  by a fiduciary or other
administrator  for the account of  participants  who are  employees  of a single
employer or of affiliated  employers.  These may include,  for example,  medical
savings  accounts,  payroll  deduction plans or similar plans. The fund accounts
must be registered in the name of the fiduciary or administrator  purchasing the
shares for the benefit of participants in the plan.

     (5) The term "Group  Retirement  Plan" means any qualified or non-qualified
retirement plan for employees of a corporation or sole  proprietorship,  members
and  employees of a  partnership  or  association  or other  organized  group of
persons (the members of which may include other  groups),  if the group has made
special  arrangements  with  the  Distributor  and  all  members  of  the  group
participating  in (or who are  eligible  to  participate  in) the plan  purchase
shares  of an  Oppenheimer  fund or funds  through a single  investment  dealer,
broker or other  financial  institution  designated  by the  group.  Such  plans
include 457 plans, SEP-IRAs,  SARSEPs,  SIMPLE plans and 403(b) plans other than
plans for  public  school  employees.  The term  "Group  Retirement  Plan"  also
includes  qualified  retirement plans and  non-qualified  deferred  compensation
plans and IRAs that purchase  shares of an  Oppenheimer  fund or funds through a
single investment  dealer,  broker or other financial  institution that has made
special arrangements with the Distributor.

     (6)  However,  that  concession  will not be paid on purchases of shares in
amounts  of $1  million  or more  (including  any  right of  accumulation)  by a
Retirement Plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class
C shares  of one or more  Oppenheimer  funds  held by the Plan for more than one
year.

     (7) This provision does not apply to IRAs.

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

     (9) The  distribution  must be requested  prior to Plan  termination or the
elimination of the Oppenheimer funds as an investment option under the Plan.

     (10) This provision does not apply to IRAs.

     (11) This provision does not apply to loans from 403(b)(7)  custodial plans
and loans from the OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.

     (12) This  provision  does not apply to  403(b)(7)  custodial  plans if the
participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.

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

Item 25. - Indemnification

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

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

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

     (a) OppenheimerFunds,  Inc. is the investment adviser of the Registrant; it
and  certain  subsidiaries  and  affiliates  act in the same  capacity  to other
