ABOUT the fund

The Fund's Investment Objective and Strategies

WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE? The Fund seeks to maximize total
investment return (including capital appreciation and income) principally by
allocating its assets among stocks, corporate bonds, U.S. government
securities and money market instruments, according to changing market
conditions.

WHAT DOES THE FUND MAINLY INVEST IN? The Fund invests mainly in stocks, bonds
and money market instruments. The Fund's investment Manager,
OppenheimerFunds, Inc., can allocate the Fund's investments among these
different types of securities in different proportions at different times to
seek the Fund's objective. That allocation is based on the Manager's judgment
of where the best opportunities are for total return after evaluating market
and economic conditions.

At least 25% of the Fund's total assets normally will be invested in
fixed-income senior securities. Otherwise, the Fund is not required to
allocate its investments among stocks, bonds and money market instruments in
any fixed proportion. The Fund may have none or some of its assets invested
in each asset class in relative proportions that change over time.

Equity Securities. The Fund can buy a variety of domestic and foreign equity
investments, including common and preferred stocks, warrants and
convertible securities (many of which are debt securities that the
Manager considers to be "equity substitutes" because of their
conversion feature). The Fund currently emphasizes its equity
investments in stocks of domestic issuers. The Fund can buy securities
of companies in different capitalization ranges.

Debt Securities. The Fund can invest in a variety of debt securities
(including convertible securities), such as securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government and its agencies and
instrumentalities, including mortgage-related securities and
collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), and forward rolls with
respect to mortgage-related securities. It also can buy municipal
securities, foreign government securities, and domestic and foreign
corporate debt obligations. The Fund can buy debt securities rated
below investment grade (these are commonly called "junk bonds"), but
has limits on those investments, as discussed below.

Money Market Instruments. Under normal market conditions (when the equity and
debt securities markets are not unstable, in the Manager's view), the
Fund can hold up to 40% of its total assets in money market
instruments, such as short-term U.S. government securities and
commercial paper.

HOW DO THE PORTFOLIO MANAGERS DECIDE WHAT SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL? In
selecting equity securities for purchase or sale by the Fund, the Fund's
portfolio managers use an investment process that combines both "value" and
"growth" investment styles. They use a value strategy to find issuers whose
securities are believed to be undervalued in the marketplace. A growth
investing style encompasses a search for companies whose stock price is
expected to increase at a greater rate than the overall market. These issuers
may be entering a growth phase marked by increases in earnings, sales, cash
flows or other factors, which suggest that the stock may increase in value
over time.

The portfolio managers construct the equity portion of the portfolio
using a "bottom up" approach, focusing on the fundamental prospects of
individual companies and issuers, rather than on broad economic trends
affecting entire markets and industries. The portfolio managers focus on
factors that may vary over time and in particular cases. Currently they look
for:

o Individual stocks that are attractive based on fundamental stock
analysis and company characteristics;

o Growth stocks having high earnings potential and earnings and sales
momentum; and
o Dividend-paying common stocks of established companies for income.

The portfolio managers monitor individual issuers for changes in profit
margins or slowing revenues that might affect future cash flows or growth.
The existence of these changes in a particular case may trigger a decision to
sell the security. The portfolio managers may consider selling a stock for
one or more of the following reasons:
o The stock price has reached its target,
o The company's fundamentals appear to be deteriorating, or
o Better stock selections are believed to have been identified.
These approaches may change over time.

In selecting bonds, the portfolio managers normally expect that portion
of the Fund's portfolio to have an average maturity (measured on a
dollar-weighted basis) of between 6 and 20 years. The Fund's portfolio
managers analyze the overall investment opportunities and risks in different
sectors of the debt securities markets by focusing on business cycle analysis
and relative values between the corporate and government sectors. The
portfolio managers' overall strategy is to build a broadly diversified
portfolio of corporate and government bonds. The portfolio managers currently
focus on the factors below (which may vary in particular cases and may change
over time), looking for:
o Debt securities in market sectors that offer attractive relative value,
o Investment-grade securities that offer more income than U.S. Treasury
obligations with a good balance of risk and return,
o High income potential from different types of corporate and government
securities, and
o Broad portfolio diversification to help reduce the volatility of the
Fund's share prices.

The portfolio managers may consider selling a bond for one or more of
the following reasons:
o The bond price has reached its target,
o The bond's fundamentals appear to be deteriorating, or
o Better bond selections are believed to have been identified.

WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED FOR? The Fund is designed primarily for investors
seeking total investment return over the long term from a flexible portfolio
investing in different asset classes, including stocks and bonds. Because the
Fund generally invests a substantial portion of its assets in stocks, those
investors should be willing to assume the risks of share price fluctuations
that are typical for a fund that can have substantial stock investments.
Because the Fund's income level will fluctuate and generally will not be
significant, it is not designed for investors needing an assured level of
current income. Because of its focus onlong- long-term total return, the Fund
may be appropriate for a portion of a retirement plan investment. However,
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 value from a number of factors described below. There
is also the risk that poor security selection by the Manager will cause the
Fund to underperform other funds having similar objectives. 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.

Risks of Investing in Stocks. Stocks fluctuate in price, and their short-term
volatility at times may be great. Because the Fund currently has substantial
investments in stocks, the value of the Fund's portfolio will be affected by
changes in the stock markets. Market risk will affect the Fund's per share
prices, 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. In particular, because the Fund currently emphasizes
investments in stocks of U.S. issuers, it will be affected primarily by
changes in U.S. stock markets.

Additionally, stocks of issuers in a particular industry may be
affected by changes in economic conditions that affect that industry more
than others, or by changes in government regulations, availability of basic
resources or supplies, or other events affecting that industry. To the extent
that the Fund emphasizes investments in a particular industry, its share
values may fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry.

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 Fund can invest in securities of large companies but it
can also buy stocks of small- and medium-size companies, which may have more
volatile stock prices than stocks of large companies.

Risks of Value Investing. Value investing seeks stocks having prices that are
low in relation to what is believed to be their real worth or
prospects. The Fund expects to realize appreciation in the value of its
holdings when other investors realize the intrinsic value of those
stocks. In using a value investing style, there is the risk that the
market will not recognize that the securities are undervalued and they
might not appreciate in value as the Manager anticipates.

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

CREDIT RISK. Debt securities are subject to credit risk. Credit risk
relates to the ability of the issuer of a security to make interest and
principal payments on the security as they become due. If the issuer fails to
pay interest, the Fund's income might be reduced, and if the issuer fails to
repay principal, the value of that security and of the Fund's shares might be
reduced. While the Fund's investments in U.S. government securities are
subject to little credit risk, the Fund's other investments in debt
securities, particularly high-yield, lower-grade debt securities, are subject
to risks of default. A downgrade in an issuer's credit rating or other
adverse news about an issuer can reduce the value of that issuer's securities.

INTEREST RATE RISKS. Debt securities are subject to changes in value when
prevailing interest rates change. When interest rates fall, the values of
outstanding debt securities generally rise. When interest rates rise, the
values of outstanding debt securities generally fall, and the securities may
sell at a discount from their face amount. The magnitude of these price
changes is generally greater for debt securities with longer-term maturities.
However, interest rate changes may have different effects on the values of
mortgage-related securities because of prepayment risks, discussed below.

Prepayment Risk. Mortgage-related securities, including forward rolls, are
subject to the risks of unanticipated prepayment. The risk is that when
interest rates fall, borrowers under the mortgages that underlie these
securities will prepay their mortgages more quickly than expected, causing
the issuer of the security to prepay the principal to the Fund prior to the
security's expected maturity. The Fund may be required to reinvest the
proceeds at a lower interest rate, reducing its income. Mortgage-related
securities subject to prepayment risk generally offer less potential for
gains when prevailing interest rates fall and have greater potential for loss
when prevailing interest rates rise. The impact of prepayments on the price
of a security may be difficult to predict and may increase the volatility of
the price. If the Fund buys mortgage-related securities at a premium,
accelerated prepayments on those securities could cause the Fund to lose a
portion of its principal investment represented by the premium.

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

The value of foreign investments may be affected by exchange control
regulations, expropriation or nationalization of a company's assets, foreign
taxes, delays in settlement of transactions, changes in governmental,
economic or monetary policy in the U.S. or abroad, or other political and
economic factors.

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 the prices of its shares.
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.

The stock markets can be volatile, and the prices of the Fund's shares
will go up and down as a result. The Fund's income-oriented investments may
help cushion the Fund's total return from changes in stock prices, but
fixed-income securities have their own risks. The Fund seeks to reduce the
effects of these risks by diversifying its investments over different asset
classes. In the OppenheimerFunds spectrum, the Fund is generally more
conservative than funds that invest only in stocks, but more aggressive than
funds that invest solely in investment-grade bonds.

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 two broad-based market indices. 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 for the other classes of shares will vary.

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

Annual Total Returns (Class A) (as of 12/31 each year)

[See appendix to prospectus for data in bar chart showing annual total
returns]

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
would be less than those shown.

For the period from 1/1/02 through 9/30/02, the cumulative return (not
annualized) before taxes of Class A shares was -12.59%.
During the period shown in the bar chart, the highest return (not annualized)
before taxes for a calendar quarter was 12.09% (4Qtr98) and the lowest return
(not annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was -8.31% (3Qtr01).

is not available.

The Fund's average annual total returns include the applicable sales charge:
for Class A, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B,
the contingent deferred sales charges of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5 years); and
for Class C, the 1% contingent deferred sales charge for the 1-year period.
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 Fund's 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 the S & P 500 Index, an unmanaged index of common
stocks, and the Merrill Lynch Government and Corporate Master Index, a
broad-based index of U.S. Treasury and government agency securities,
corporate and Yankee bonds. The indices performance includes reinvestment of
income but does not reflect transaction costs. The Fund's investments vary
from the securities in the indices.

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 October 31,
2002.

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 declines to 1% in the sixth year 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.

Expenses may vary in future years. "Other expenses" include transfer agent
fees, custodial fees, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund pays.
The Transfer Agent has voluntarily undertaken to the Fund to limit the
transfer agent fees to 0.35% of average daily net assets per fiscal year for
all classes. That undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time. For
the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 2002, the transfer agent fees
exceeded the expense limitation described above by less than 0.01%, for each
class.

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:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If shares are redeemed: 1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Class A Shares $691 $937 $1,202 $1,957

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

Class B Shares $703 $927 $1,278 $1,9361

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

Class C Shares $303 $627 $1,078 $2,327

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

Class N Shares $263 $505 $871 $1,900

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If shares are not 1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years

Class B Shares $203 $627 $1,078 $1,9361

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

Class N Shares $163 $505 $871 $1,900

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the first example, expenses include the initial sales charge for Class A
and the applicable Class B, Class C and Class N contingent deferred sales
charges. In the second example, the Class A expenses include the sales
charge, but Class B, Class C and Class N expenses do not include contingent
deferred sales charges.

1. Class B expenses for years 7 through 10 are based on Class A expenses
because Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares after 72
months.

About the Fund's Investments

THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES. The allocation of the Fund's
portfolio among the different types of investments will vary over time based
upon the evaluation of economic and market trends by the Manager. The Fund's
portfolio might not always include all of the different types of investments
described below. 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, and in some cases by using hedging techniques. The
Fund attempts to reduce its exposure to market risks by diversifying its
investments, that is, by not holding a substantial amount of securities of
any one issuer 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 total assets in any one industry.

However, changes in the overall market prices of securities and any
income they may pay can occur at any time. The prices and yields of the
Fund's shares will change daily based on changes in market prices of
securities and market conditions, and in response to other economic events.

Stock and Other Equity Investments. Equity securities include common stocks,
preferred stocks and debt securities convertible into common stock.
The Fund's equity investments can include interests in real estate
investment trusts. Those securities may be sensitive to changes in
interest rates, and because the real estate market can be very volatile
at times, the prices of those securities may change substantially.
Because total return has two components, capital appreciation and
income, the Manager might select stocks that offer the potential for
either or both of those elements.

While many convertible securities are debt securities, the Manager
considers some of them to be "equity equivalents" because of the
conversion feature. In that case their credit rating has less impact on
the investment decision than in the case of other debt securities.
Convertible securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate
risk, discussed below.

However, they are subject to credit risks, discussed below in "Debt
Securities," and interest rate risk. These securities might be selected
for the Fund because they offer the ability to participate in stock
market movements while offering some current income. Preferred stocks,
while a form of equity security, typically have a fixed dividend that
may cause their prices to behave more like those of debt securities.

o Value Stocks. These are stocks that appear to be temporarily
undervalued, by various measures such as price/earnings ratios. Value
investing seeks stocks with prices that are low relative to what the
Manager believes to be their real worth or future prospects. The hope
is that the Fund will realize appreciation in the value of its holdings
when other investors realize the intrinsic value of the stock.
However, there is the risk that the stock will not appreciate in value
as anticipated.

o Growth Stocks. The types of growth companies the Manager focuses on are
larger, more established growth companies. Growth companies, for
example, may be developing new products or services, such as companies
in the technology sector, or they may be expanding into new markets for
their products, such as companies in the energy sector. 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
some time. If they are selected for the Fund's portfolio, it is because
the Manager believes the price of the stock will increase over time.

The Fund is not required to allocate its equity investments among value
and growth stocks in any fixed proportion. The Fund may invest its
assets in relative proportions that change over time.

Debt Securities. The Fund can invest in a variety of debt securities to seek
its objective. The debt securities the Fund buys may be rated by
nationally recognized rating organizations or they may be unrated
securities assigned an equivalent rating by the Manager. The Fund's
debt investments may be "investment grade" (that is, in the four
highest rating categories of a nationally recognized rating
organization) or may be lower-grade securities (sometimes called "junk
bonds") rated as low as "B" by Moody's Investor Services, Inc.
("Moody's"), Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("S&P") or Fitch, Inc.
("Fitch") or having comparable ratings by other nationally recognized
rating organizations (or, if they are unrated, having a comparable
rating assigned by the Manager). The Fund does not invest more than 10%
of its total assets in unrated debt securities. A description of the
ratings definitions of nationally recognized rating organizations is
included in Appendix A to the Statement of Additional Information.

While the Fund can invest as much as 20% of its total assets in
lower-grade securities, currently it does not intend to invest more
than 10% of its total assets in these investments. Lower-grade debt
securities may be subject to greater market fluctuations and greater
risks of loss of income and principal than investment-grade debt
securities. Securities that are (or that have fallen) below investment
grade are exposed to a greater risk that the issuers of those
securities might not meet their debt obligations. These risks can
reduce the Fund's share prices and the income it earns.

U.S. Government Securities. The Fund can invest in securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or other government agencies or
federally-chartered corporate entities referred to as
"instrumentalities." These are referred to as "U.S. government
securities" in this Prospectus.

o U.S. Treasury Obligations. These include Treasury bills (having
maturities of one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (having
maturities of more than one year and up to ten years when issued), and
Treasury bonds (having maturities of more than ten years when issued).
Treasury securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the
United States as to timely payments of interest and repayments of
principal. The Fund also can buy U. S. Treasury securities that have
been "stripped" of their coupons by a Federal Reserve Bank, zero-coupon
U.S. Treasury securities, and Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities.

o Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
Instrumentalities. These include direct obligations and
mortgage-related securities that have different levels of credit
support from the U.S. government. Some are supported by the full faith
and credit of the U.S. government, such as Government National Mortgage
Association pass-through mortgage certificates ("Ginnie Maes"). Some
are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S.
Treasury under certain circumstances, such as Federal National Mortgage
Association bonds ("Fannie Maes"). Others are supported only by the
credit of the entity that issued them, such as Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation obligations ("Freddie Macs").

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

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

o Forward Rolls. The Fund can enter into "forward roll" transactions with
respect to mortgage-related securities. In this type of transaction,
the Fund sells a mortgage-related security to a buyer and
simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security at a later date
at a set price.

During the period between the sale and the repurchase, the Fund will
not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the
securities that have been sold. It is possible that the market value of
the securities the Fund sells may decline below the price at which the
Fund is obligated to repurchase securities, or that the counterparty
might default in its obligation. A substantial portion of the Fund's
assets may be subject to forward roll transactions at any given time.

Private-Issuer Mortgage-Backed Securities. The Fund can invest a
substantial portion of its assets in mortgage-backed securities issued
by private issuers, which do not offer the credit backing of U.S.
government securities. Primarily these include multi-class debt or
pass-through certificates secured by mortgage loans. They may be issued
by banks, savings and loans, mortgage bankers and other
non-governmental issuers. Private issuer mortgage-backed securities are
subject to the thecredit risks of the issuers (as well as the interest
rate risks and prepayment risks of CMOs), although in some cases they
may be supported by insurance or o premium.guarantees.

If interest rates rise rapidly, prepayments of mortgages (the risks of
which are described above) may occur at a slower rate than expected,
and the expected maturity of long-term or medium-term mortgage-related
securities could lengthen as a result. That could cause their values to
fluctuate more, and the prices of the Fund's shares to fall.

Money Market Instruments and Short-Term Debt Securities. Under normal market
conditions the Fund can invest in a variety of short-term debt
obligations having a maturity of one year or less. These include:
o Money market instruments. Generally, these are debt obligations having
ratings in the top two rating categories of nationally recognized
rating organizations (or equivalent ratings assigned by the Manager).
Examples include commercial paper of domestic issuers or foreign
companies (foreign issuers must have assets of $1 billion or more).
o Short-term debt obligations of the U.S. government or corporations.
o Obligations of domestic or foreign banks or savings and loan
associations, such as certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances.

Under normal market conditions this strategy would be used primarily
for cash management or liquidity purposes. The yields on shorter-term
debt obligations tend to be less than on longer-term debt. Therefore,
to the extent that the Fund uses this strategy, it might help preserve
principal but may reduce opportunities to seek growth of capital as
part of its objective of total return.

Foreign Securities. The Fund can invest up to 25% of its total assets in
securities of companies or governments in any country, developed or
underdeveloped. These include equity and debt securities of companies
organized under the laws of countries other than the United States and
debt securities of foreign governments and their agencies and
instrumentalities. See the Main Risks section above for a description
of some of the risks associated with foreign investing. The Statement
of Additional Information includes more detailed information regarding
the risks of foreign investing, including the risks associated with
investments in emerging market countries.

Can the Fund's Investment Objective and Policies Change? The Fund's Board of
Directors 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 not a fundamental policy. Investment restrictions that are
fundamental policies are listed in the Statement of Additional Information.
An investment policy is not fundamental unless this Prospectus or the
Statement of Additional Information says that it is.

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

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

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

The values of interest-only mortgage-related securities are also very
sensitive to prepayments of underlying mortgages. Principal-only
securities are also sensitive to changes in interest rates. When
prepayments tend to fall, the timing of the cash flows to these
securities increases, making them more sensitive to changes in interest
rates. The market for some of these securities may be limited, making
it difficult for the Fund to dispose of its holdings at an acceptable
price. The Fund can invest up to 50% of its total assets in zero-coupon
securities issued by either the U.S. government or U.S. companies.

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. Options, futures,
mortgage-related securities, asset-backed securities and "stripped"
securities are examples of derivatives the Fund can use.

o There are Special Risks in Using Derivative Investments. If the issuer
of the derivative does not pay the amount due, the Fund can lose money
on the investment. Also, the underlying security or investment on which
the derivative is based, and the derivative itself, might not perform
the way the Manager expected it to perform. If that happens, the Fund's
share prices could decline or the Fund could get less income than
expected. Interest rate and stock market changes in the U.S. and abroad
may also influence the performance of derivatives. Some derivative
investments held by the Fund may be illiquid. The Fund has limits on
the amount of particular types of derivatives it can hold. However,
using derivatives can cause the Fund to lose money on its investment
and/or increase the volatility of its share prices.

Hedging. The Fund can buy and sell futures contracts, put and call options,
swaps, and forward contracts. These are all referred to as "hedging
instruments." The Fund does not use hedging instruments for
speculative purposes. The Fund has limits on its use of hedging
instruments and is not required to use them in seeking its investment
objective.

The Fund could buy and sell options, futures and forward contracts for
a number of purposes. Some of these 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. The Fund may also try to manage its
exposure to changing interest rates by using hedging instruments.

There are also special risks in particular hedging strategies. For
example, options trading involves the payment of premiums and can
increase portfolio turnover. 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 and will not be
able to realize any profit if the investment has increased in value
above the call price.

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

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 assets in defensive securities. Generally, they would be
short-term U.S. government securities, high-grade commercial paper,
bank obligations or repurchase agreements. The Fund can 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 in these securities, it
might not achieve its investment objective.

Convertible Securities. Many convertible securities are a form of debt
security, but the Manager regards some of them as "equity substitutes"
because of their feature allowing them to be converted into common
stock. Therefore, their credit ratings have less impact on the
Manager's investment decision than in the case of other debt
securities. The Fund's investments in convertible securities may
include securities rated as low as "B" by Moody's, S&P or Fitch or
having comparable ratings by other nationally recognized rating
organizations (or, if they are unrated, having comparable ratings
assigned by the Manager and subject to the Fund's limitation on
investing in unrated securities as stated above). Those ratings are
below "investment grade" and the securities are subject to greater risk
of default by the issuer than investment-grade securities.

"When-Issued" and "Delayed-Delivery" Transactions. The Fund can purchase
securities on a "when-issued" basis and can purchase or sell securities
on a "delayed-delivery" basis. Between the purchase and settlement, no
payment is made for the security and no interest accrues to the buyer
from the investment. There is a risk of loss to the Fund if the value
of the when-issued security declines prior to the settlement date. No
income accrues to the Fund on a when-issued security until the Fund
receives the security on settlement of the trade.

Asset-Backed Securities. The Fund can buy asset-backed securities, which are
fractional interests in pools of loans collateralized by the loans or
other assets or receivables. They are issued by trusts and special
purpose corporations that pass the income from the underlying pool to
the buyer of the security. These securities are subject to the risk of
default by the issuer as well as by the borrowers of the underlying
loans in the pool.

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. A restricted
security is one that has a contractual restriction on its resale or
which cannot be sold publicly until it is registered under the
Securities Act of 1933. The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its
net assets in illiquid or restricted securities. 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.

Portfolio Turnover. The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to try
to achieve its objective. The Fund's portfolio turnover rate will
fluctuate from year to year, depending on market conditions. Portfolio
turnover increases the Fund's brokerage costs which reduces its
performance. If the Fund realizes capital gains when it sells its
portfolio investments, it must generally pay those gains out to
shareholders, increasing their taxable distributions. The Financial
Highlights table at the end of this Prospectus shows the Fund's
portfolio turnover rates during prior fiscal years.

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 Directors, 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 $120 billion in
assets as of September 30, 2002, including other Oppenheimer funds with more
than 7 million shareholder accounts. The Manager is located at 498 Seventh
Avenue, New York, New York 10018.

Portfolio Managers. The Fund is managed by a team of portfolio managers
consisting of Bruce LeavyBartlett (since November 2000),
Christopher Leavy (since November 2000) and Angelo Manioudakis
(since April 2002). Messrs. Bartlett, Leavy and Manioudakis are
Senior Vice Presidents of the Manager, Vice Presidents of the
Fund and each serves as an officer and portfolio manager of other
Oppenheimer funds.

Mr. Bartlett has been employed by the Manager since April 1995.
Prior to joining the Manager in September 2000, Mr. Leavy was a
portfolio manager of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Investment
Management (from 1997), prior to which he was a portfolio manager
and equity analyst of Crestar Asset Management (from 1995). Prior
to joining the Manager in April 2002, Mr. Manioudakis was an
Executive Director and portfolio manager for Miller, Anderson &
Sherrerd, a division of Morgan Stanley Investment Management
(August 1993-March 2002).

Advisory Fees. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the
Manager an advisory fee at an annual rate that declines as the Fund's
assets grow: 0.625% of the first $300 million of average annual net
assets of the Fund, 0.500% of the next $100 million, and 0.450% of
average annual net assets in excess of $400 million. The Fund's
management fee for the last fiscal year ended October 31, 2002, was
0.625% of average annual net assets for each class of shares.

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.
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 don't list a dealer on the application, the
Distributor will act as your agent in buying the 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.
o Paying by Federal Funds Wire. Shares purchased through the Distributor
may be paid for by Federal Funds wire. The minimum investment 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 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 those 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 each month 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.

HOW MUCH MUST YOU 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 underminimums 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.
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 subsequent investments made(after making the
initial investment of $500) for as little as $50. For any type of
account established under one of these plansinvestment prior to

November 1, 2002, the minimum additional investment will remain $25.
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.

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

The net asset value per share is determined by dividing the value of
the Fund's net assets attributable to a class by the number of shares
of that class that are outstanding. To determine net asset value, the
Fund's Board of Directors has established procedures to value the
Fund's securities, in general, based on market 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 special procedures for valuing illiquid
and restricted securities and obligations for which market values
cannot be readily obtained.

If, after the close of the principal market on which a security held by
the Fund is traded, and before the time the Fund's securities are
priced that day, an event occurs that the Manager deems likely to cause
a material change in the value of such security, the Fund's Board of
Directors has authorized the Manager, subject to the Board's review, to
ascertain a fair value for such security. A security's valuation may
differ depending on the method used for determining value.

The Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, in
most cases the Distributor or its designated agent must receive your
order by the time The New York Stock Exchange closes that day. If your
order is received on a day when the Exchange 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 a dealer, your dealer
must receive the order by the close of The New York Stock Exchange and
transmit it to the Distributor so that it is received before the
Distributor's close of business on a regular business day (normally
5:00 P.M.) to receive that day's offering price, unless your dealer has
made alternative arrangements with the Distributor. Otherwise, the
order will receive the next offering price that is determined.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT CLASSES OF SHARES DOES THE FUND OFFER? The Fund offers investors four
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.

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 probably consider purchasing 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.

And for non-retirement plan investors who 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 $500,000 or
more of Class B shares or $1 million or more of Class C shares from a
single investor.

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 shares, such as the Class B,
Class C and Class N asset-based sales charge described below and in the
Statement of Additional Information. Share certificates are only
available for Class A shares. If you are considering using your shares
as collateral for a loan, that may be a factor to consider.

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 for its customers.

SPECIAL SALES CHARGE ARRANGEMENTS AND WAIVERS. Appendix C 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.

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

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

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amount of Purchase Front-End Sales Front-End Sales Concession As

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

Can You Reduce Class A Sales Charges? You may be eligible to buy Class A
shares at reduced sales charge rates under the Fund's "Right of
Accumulation" or a Letter of Intent, as described in "Reduced Sales
Charges" in the Statement of Additional Information.

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 for certain purchases by particular
types of retirement plans that were permitted to purchase such shares
prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement accounts").
Retirement 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 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.

Purchases by Certain Retirement Plans. There is no initial sales charge on
purchases of Class A shares of any one or more Oppenheimer funds by
retirement plans that have $10 million or more in plan assets and that
have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor and by
retirement plans which are part of a retirement plan product or
platform offered by certain banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors,
insurance companies or recordkeepers which have entered into a special
agreement with the Distributor. The Distributor currently pays dealers
of record concessions in an amount equal to 0.25% of the purchase price
of Class A shares by those retirement plans from its own resources at
the time of sale, subject to certain exceptions as described in the
Statement of Additional Information. There is no contingent deferred
sales charge upon the redemption of such shares.

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

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Years Since Beginning of Month in Contingent Deferred Sales Charge on
Which Purchase Order was Accepted Redemptions in That Year
(As % of Amount Subject to Charge)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 - 1 5.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 - 2 4.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 - 3 3.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 - 4 3.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - 5 2.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 - 6 1.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More than 6 None
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the table, a "year" is a 12-month period. In applying the contingent
deferred sales charge, all purchases are considered to have been made on the
first regular business day of the month in which the purchase was made.

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

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

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

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.

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 quarterly 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. During the first year the shares are sold, the Distributor
retains the service fee. After the shares have been held for a year,
the Distributor pays the service fee to dealers on a quarterly basis.

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 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 on a quarterly basis. The Distributor retains
the service fees for accounts for which it renders the required
personal services.

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 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.
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
retains the asset-based sales charge on Class N shares. See the
Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

REINVESTMENT PRIVILEGE If you redeem some or all of your Class A or Class B
shares of the Fund, you have up to six months to reinvest all or part of the
redemption proceeds in Class A shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds
without paying a sales charge. This privilege applies only to Class A shares
that you purchased subject to an initial sales charge and to Class A or Class
B shares on which you paid a contingent deferred sales charge when you
redeemed them. This privilege does not apply to Class C or Class N shares.
You must be sure to ask the Distributor for this privilege when you send your
payment.

RETIREMENT PLANS. You may buy shares of the Fund for your retirement plan
account. If you participate in a plan sponsored by your employer, the plan
trustee or administrator must buy the shares for your plan account. The
Distributor also offers a number of different retirement plans that
individuals and employers can use:

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These include regular IRAs, Roth IRAs,
SIMPLE IRAs and rollover IRAs.
SEP-IRAs. These are Simplified Employee Pension Plan IRAs for small business

self-employed individuals.
Please call the Distributor for OppenheimerFunds retirement plan
documents, which include applications and important plan information.

How to Sell Shares

You can sell (redeem) some or all of your shares on any regular business day.
Your shares will be sold at the next net asset value calculated after your
order is received 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.

Sending 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.

requests by mail: requests to:
OppenheimerFunds Services OppenheimerFunds Services
P.O. Box 5270 10200 E. Girard Avenue, Building D
Denver, Colorado 80217 Denver, Colorado 80231

HOW DO you SELL SHARES BY TELEPHONE? You and your dealer representative of
record may also sell your shares by telephone. To receive the redemption
price calculated on a particular regular business day, your call must be
received by the Transfer Agent by the close of The New York Stock Exchange
that day, which is normally 4:00 P.M., but may be earlier on some days. You
may not redeem shares held in an OppenheimerFunds 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 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 C 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 C 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

Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of certain Oppenheimer funds
at net asset value per share at the time of exchange, without sales charge.
Shares of the Fund can be purchased by exchange of shares of other
Oppenheimer funds on the same basis. 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 prospectuses of both funds must offer the exchange privilege.
o You must hold the shares you buy when you establish your account for at
least seven days before you can exchange them. After the account is
open seven days, you can exchange shares every regular business day.
o You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the fund whose
shares you purchase by exchange.
o Before exchanging into a fund, you must obtain and read its prospectus.
Shares of a particular class of the Fund may be exchanged only for
shares of the same class in the other Oppenheimer funds. For example, you can
exchange Class A shares of this Fund only for Class A shares of another fund.
In some cases, sales charges may be imposed on exchange transactions. For tax
purposes, exchanges of shares involve a sale of the shares of the fund you
own and a purchase of the shares of the other fund, which may result in a
capital gain or loss. Please refer to "How to Exchange Shares" in the
Statement of Additional Information for more details.

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

HOW DO you SUBMIT EXCHANGE REQUESTS? Exchanges may be requested in writing or
by telephone:

Written Exchange Requests. Submit an OppenheimerFunds Exchange Request form,
signed by all owners of the account. Send it to the Transfer Agent at
the address on the back cover. Exchanges of shares held under
certificates cannot be processed unless the Transfer Agent receives the
certificates with the request.
Telephone Exchange Requests. Telephone exchange requests may be made either
by calling a service representative or by using PhoneLink for automated
exchanges by calling 1.800.225.5677. Telephone exchanges may be made
only between accounts that are registered with the same name(s) and
address. Shares held under certificates may not be exchanged by
telephone.

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON EXCHANGES? There are certain exchange policies you
should be aware of:
o Shares are redeemed from one fund and purchased from the other fund in
the exchange transaction on the same regular business day on which the
Transfer Agent receives an exchange request that conforms to the
policies described above. It must be received by the close of The New
York Stock Exchange that day, which is normally 4:00 P.M. but may be
earlier on some days.
o The interests of the Fund's long-term shareholders and its ability to
manage its investments may be adversely affected when its shares are
repeatedly bought and sold in response to short-term market
fluctuations--also known as "market timing." When large dollar amounts
are involved, the Fund may have difficulty implementing long-term
investment strategies, because it cannot predict how much cash it will
have to invest. Market timing also may force the Fund to sell portfolio
securities at disadvantageous times to raise the cash needed to buy a
market timer's Fund shares. These factors may hurt the Fund's
performance and its shareholders. When the Manager believes frequent
trading would have a disruptive effect on the Fund's ability to manage
its investments, the Manager and the Fund may reject purchase orders
and exchanges into the Fund by any person, group or account that the
Manager believes to be a market timer.
o The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
time. The Fund will provide you notice whenever it is required to do so
by applicable law, but it may impose changes at any time for emergency
purposes.
o If the Transfer Agent cannot exchange all the shares you request
because of a restriction cited above, only the shares eligible for
exchange will be exchanged.
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 fee is assessed on any account valued at less than $500. The fee
is automatically deducted from accounts annually on or about the second
to last business day of September. See the Statement of Additional
Information, or visit the OppenheimerFunds website, to learn how you
can avoid this fee and for circumstances when 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 Directors 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, or arrange with your bank to provide telephone or written
assurance to the Transfer Agent that your purchase payment has cleared.
Involuntary redemptions of small accounts may be made by the Fund if the
account has fewer than 100 shares. 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.
"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 a quarterly basis in March, June,
September and December on a date selected by the Board of Directors.
Dividends and distributions paid to Class A shares will generally be higher
than dividends for Class B, Class C and Class N shares, which normally have
higher expenses than Class A. 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 in December of each year. 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.

Avoid "Buying a Dividend." If you buy shares on or just before the Fund
declares a dividend or 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 auditors, whose report, along with the Fund's financial
statements, is included in the Statement of Additional Information, which is
available on request.

ABOUT the fund

The Fund's Investment Objective and Strategies

WHAT IS THE FUND'S  INVESTMENT  OBJECTIVE?  The Fund seeks long-term growth of
capital  by  investing  primarily  in common  stocks  with low  price-earnings
ratios and better-than-anticipated  earnings. Realization of current income is
a secondary consideration.

WHAT DOES THE FUND  MAINLY  INVEST IN?  The Fund may  invest  mainly in common
stocks  of  different  capitalization  ranges.  The Fund  also  can buy  other
investments, including:

o     Preferred  stocks,  rights and warrants and convertible debt securities,

      and
o     Securities of U.S. and foreign  companies,  although there are limits on
      the Fund's investments in foreign securities.


HOW DOES THE  PORTFOLIO  MANAGER  DECIDE WHAT  SECURITIES  TO BUY OR SELL?  In
selecting  securities for purchase or sale by the Fund,  the Fund's  portfolio
manager  selects  securities  one at a  time.  This is  called  a  "bottom  up
approach."  The  portfolio  manager  uses a  fundamental  analysis  to  select
securities for the Fund that he believes are  undervalued.  While this process
and the  inter-relationship  of the factors  used may change over time and its
implementation  may vary in particular  cases, the portfolio manager currently
considers the following factors when assessing a company's business prospects:
o     Future supply/demand conditions for its key products,
o     Product cycles,
o     Quality of management,
o     Competitive position in the market place,
o     Reinvestment plans for cash generated, and
o     Better-than-expected earnings reports.

      Not all factors are relevant for every individual security.


The  portfolio  manager  may  consider  selling a stock for one or more of the
following reasons:
o     The stock price has reached its target,
o     The company's fundamentals appear to be deteriorating, or
o     Better stock selections are believed to have been identified.


WHO IS THE FUND DESIGNED FOR? The Fund is designed primarily for investors
seeking capital growth in their investment over the long term. Because the
Fund currently focuses its investments in stocks, those investors should be
willing to assume the risks of short-term share price fluctuations that are
typical for a fund that can have substantial stock investments. Since the
Fund's income level will fluctuate and will likely be small, it is not
designed for investors needing an assured level of current income. Because of
its focus on long-term total growth of capital, the Fund may be appropriate
for a portion of a retirement plan investment. However, 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 value from a number of factors described below. There
is also the risk that poor security selection by the Fund's investment
Manager, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., will cause the Fund to underperform other
funds having similar objectives.

Risks of Investing in Stocks.  Stocks fluctuate in price, and their short-term
volatility  at times may be great.  Because  the Fund  currently  focuses  its
investments in stocks,  the value of the Fund's  portfolio will be affected by
changes in the stock  markets.  Market  risk will  affect the Fund's per share
prices,  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. In particular, because the Fund currently emphasizes
investments in stocks of U.S. issuers, it will be affected primarily by
changes in U.S. stock markets.


      Additionally, stocks of issuers in a particular industry may be
affected by changes in economic conditions that affect that industry more
than others, or by changes in government regulations, availability of basic
resources or supplies, or other events affecting that industry. At times, the
Fund may increase the relative emphasis of its investments in a particular
industry. To the extent that the Fund is emphasizing investments in a
particular industry, its share values may fluctuate in response to events
affecting that industry.

      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 Fund currently emphasizes securities of larger companies
but it can also buy stocks of small- and medium-size companies, which may
have more volatile stock prices than stocks of larger companies.

Risks of Value Investing. Value investing seeks stocks having prices that are
      low in relation to what is believed to be their real worth or
      prospects. The Fund expects to realize appreciation in the value of its
      holdings when other investors realize the intrinsic value of those
      stocks. In using a value investing style, there is the risk that the
      market will not recognize that the securities are undervalued and they
      might not appreciate in value as the Manager anticipates.

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

      The value of foreign investments may be affected by exchange control
regulations, expropriation or nationalization of a company's assets, foreign
taxes, delays in settlement of transactions, changes in governmental economic
or monetary policy in the U.S. or abroad, or other political and economic
factors.


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 the prices of its shares.
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. 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.
There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.


      The Fund focuses its investments on stocks for long-term growth. Stock
markets can be volatile, and the prices of the Fund's shares will go up and
down. 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 conservative than
aggressive growth stock funds, but more aggressive than funds that invest in
stocks and bonds.






The Fund's Past Performance


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


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

Annual Total Returns (Class A) (as of 12/31 each year)

[See appendix to prospectus for data in bar chart showing annual total
returns]

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
would be less than those shown.

For the period from 1/1/02 through 9/30/02, the cumulative return (not
annualized) before taxes of Class A shares was -22.49%.
During the period shown in the bar chart,  the highest return (not annualized)
before taxes for a calendar  quarter was 18.26% (4Qtr98) and the lowest return
(not annualized) before taxes for a calendar quarter was -16.69% (3Qtr01).

2 Because this is a new class of shares,  return data for the period specified
is not available.

The Fund's average annual total returns include the applicable sales charge:
for Class A, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B,
the contingent deferred sales charges of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5 years); and
for Class C, the 1% contingent deferred sales charge for the 1-year period.
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.
There is no sales charge for Class Y shares. The Fund's 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 the S & P 500 Index,
an unmanaged index of common stocks.  The index performance reflects the
reinvestment of income but does not reflect transaction costs.  The Fund's
investments vary from the securities 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 October 31,
2002.

   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 declines to 1% in the sixth year and is eliminated
   after that.
3.    Applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase.

Expenses may vary in future years. "Other expenses" include transfer agent
fees, custodial fees, and accounting and legal expenses that the Fund pays.
The Transfer Agent has voluntarily undertaken to the Fund to limit the
transfer agent fees to 0.25% of average daily net assets per fiscal year for
Class Y shares and 0.35% of average daily net assets per fiscal year for all
other classes. That undertaking for Class Y shares was effective January 1,
2001 through October 31, 2002 and all undertakings may be amended or
withdrawn at any time. After the waiver, the actual "Other Expenses" and
"Total Annual Operating Expenses" as percentages of average daily net assets
were 0.60% and 1.23%, respectively, for Class Y shares.  For the Fund's
fiscal year ended October 31, 2002, the transfer agent fees exceeded the
expense limitation described above for the others classes of shares by less
than 0.01% for each class.

Effective November 1, 2002, the limit on transfer agent fees for Class Y
shares increased to 0.35% of average daily net assets per fiscal year. Had
that limit been in effect during the Fund's prior fiscal year, the Class Y
"Other Expenses" and "Total Annual Operating Expenses" as percentages of
average daily net assets would have been 0.70% and 1.33%, respectively.


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

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

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


About the Fund's Investments

THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES. The allocation of the Fund's
portfolio among the different types of investments will vary over time based
upon the evaluation of economic and market trends by the Manager. The Fund's
portfolio might not always include all of the different types of investments
described below. 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, and in some cases by using hedging techniques. The
Fund attempts to reduce its exposure to market risks by diversifying its
investments, that is, by not holding a substantial amount of securities of
any one issuer 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 total assets in any one industry.

      However, changes in the overall market prices of securities and any
income they may pay can occur at any time. The price and yield of the Fund's
shares will change daily based on changes in market prices of securities and
market conditions, and in response to other economic events.

Stock Investments. The Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of
      common stocks of issuers that may be of small, medium or large
      capitalization, to seek capital growth. The Fund can invest in other
      equity securities, including preferred stocks, rights and warrants, and
      securities convertible into common stock. The Fund can buy securities
      issued by domestic or foreign companies.


      While many convertible securities are debt securities, the Manager
      considers some of them to be "equity equivalents" because of their
      conversion feature. In these cases, their credit rating has less impact
      on the investment decision than in the case of other debt securities.
      Convertible securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate
      risk, discussed below.

      The Fund can buy convertible securities rated as low as "B" by Moody's
      Investor Services, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Rating Service or having
      comparable ratings by other nationally recognized rating organizations
      (or, if they are unrated, having a comparable rating assigned by the
      Manager). Those ratings are below "investment grade" and the securities
      (commonly referred to as "junk bonds") are subject to greater risk of
      default by the issuer than investment-grade securities. These
      investments are subject to the Fund's policy of not investing more than
      10% of its net assets in debt securities.
Foreign Securities. The Fund can invest up to 25% of its total assets in
      securities of companies or governments in any country, developed or
      underdeveloped. These include equity and debt securities of companies
      organized under the laws of countries other than the United States and
      debt securities of foreign governments and their agencies and
      instrumentalities. See the Main Risks section above for a description
      of some of the risks associated with foreign investing. The Statement
      of Additional Information includes more detailed information regarding
      the risks of foreign investing, including the risks associated with
      investments in emerging market countries.


Can the Fund's Investment Objective and Policies Change?  The Fund's Board of
Directors 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 not a fundamental policy. Investment restrictions that are
fundamental policies are listed in the Statement of Additional Information.
An investment policy is not fundamental unless this Prospectus or the
Statement of Additional Information says that it is.


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


Cash and Cash Equivalents. Under normal market conditions the Fund can invest
      up to 15% of its net assets in cash and cash equivalents such as
      commercial paper, repurchase agreements, Treasury bills and other
      short-term U.S. government securities. This strategy would be used
      primarily for cash management or liquidity purposes. To the extent that
      the Fund uses this strategy, it might reduce its opportunities to seek
      its objective of long-term growth of capital.

Debt Securities.  Under normal market conditions,  the Fund can invest in debt
      securities,  such  as  securities  issued  or  guaranteed  by  the  U.S.
      government  or its agencies and  instrumentalities,  foreign  government
      securities,  and foreign and domestic  corporate  bonds and  debentures.
      Normally  these  investments  are  limited  to not more  than 10% of the
      Fund's net assets, including convertible debt securities.

      The debt securities the Fund buys may be rated by nationally recognized
      rating organizations or they may be unrated securities assigned an
      equivalent rating by the Manager. The Fund's debt investments may be
      "investment grade" (that is, rated in the four highest rating
      categories of a nationally recognized rating organization) or may be
      lower-grade securities rated as low as "B," as described above.

o     Credit Risk.  Debt securities are subject to credit risk.  Credit risk
      relates to the ability of the issuer of a security to make interest and
      principal payments on the security as they become due. If the issuer
      fails to pay interest, the Fund's income might be reduced, and if the
      issuer fails to repay principal, the value of that security and of the
      Fund's shares might be reduced. A downgrade in an issuer's credit
      rating or other adverse news about an issuer can reduce the value of
      that issuer's securities. While the Fund's investments in U.S.
      government securities are subject to little credit risk, the Fund's
      other investments in debt securities, particularly high-yield,
      lower-grade debt securities are subject to risks of default.
      Lower-grade debt securities may be subject to greater market
      fluctuations and greater risks of loss of income and principal than
      investment-grade debt securities.

o     Interest Rate Risk. The values of debt securities, including U.S.
      government securities, are subject to change when prevailing interest
      rates change.  When interest rates fall, the values of already-issued
      debt securities generally rise.  When interest rates rise, the values
      of already-issued debt securities generally fall, and they may sell at
      a discount from their face amount. The magnitude of these fluctuations
      will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term
      debt securities.  The Fund's share prices can go up or down when
      interest rates change because of the effect of the changes on the value
      of the Fund's investments in debt securities.


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. Options, futures,
      mortgage-related securities and "stripped" securities are examples of
      derivatives the Fund can use. Currently, the Fund does not use
      derivative investments to a significant degree.


o     There Are Special Risks In Using Derivative Investments. If the issuer
      of the derivative does not pay the amount due, the Fund can lose money
      on the investment. Also, the underlying security or investment on which
      the derivative is based, and the derivative itself, might not perform
      the way the Manager expected it to perform. If that happens, the Fund's
      share prices could decline or the Fund could get less income than
      expected. Interest rate and stock market changes in the U.S. and abroad
      may also influence the performance of derivatives. Some derivative
      investments held by the Fund may be illiquid. The Fund has limits on
      the amount of particular types of derivatives it can hold. However,
      using derivatives can cause the Fund to lose money on its investment
      and/or increase the volatility of its share prices.

Hedging.  The Fund can buy and sell futures contracts, put and call options,
      swaps, and forward contracts.  These are all referred to as "hedging
      instruments."  The Fund does not use hedging instruments for
      speculative purposes. The Fund has limits on its use of hedging
      instruments and is not required to use them in seeking its investment
      objective.


      The Fund can buy and sell options, swaps, futures and forward contracts
      for a number of purposes. Some of these 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. The Fund may also try to
      manage its exposure to changing interest rates.

      There are special risks in particular hedging strategies. For example,
      options trading involves the payment of premiums and can increase
      portfolio turnover. 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 and will not be able to
      realize any profit if the investment has increased in value above the
      call price.

      If the Manager used a hedging instrument at the wrong time or judged
      market conditions incorrectly, the hedge might fail and the strategy
      could reduce the Fund's return. The Fund could also experience losses
      if the prices of its futures and options positions were not correlated
      with its other investments or if it could not close out a position
      because of an illiquid market.
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. A restricted
      security is one that has a contractual restriction on its resale or
      which cannot be sold publicly until it is registered under the
      Securities Act of 1933. The Fund will not invest more than 10% of its
      net assets in illiquid or restricted securities. 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.

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 assets in defensive securities.  Generally, they would be
      short-term U.S. government securities, high-grade commercial paper,
      bank obligations or repurchase agreements. The Fund can 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 in these securities, it
      might not achieve its investment objective.

Portfolio Turnover. The Fund may engage in active or frequent trading to try
      to achieve its objective. The Fund's portfolio turnover rate will
      fluctuate from year to year, depending on market conditions. Portfolio
      turnover increases the Fund's brokerage costs which reduces its
      performance. If the Fund realizes capital gains when it sells its
      portfolio investments, it must generally pay those gains out to
      shareholders, increasing their taxable distributions. The Financial
      Highlights table at the end of this Prospectus shows the Fund's
      portfolio turnover rates during prior fiscal years.


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 Directors, 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 $120 billion in
assets as of September 30, 2002,  including other  Oppenheimer funds with more
than 7 million  shareholder  accounts.  The  Manager is located at 498 Seventh
Avenue, New York, New York 10018.


Portfolio Manager. The Fund is managed by Christopher Leavy. Mr. Leavy
      is a Senior Vice President of the Manager, Vice President of the
      Fund and serves as an officer and portfolio manager of other
      Oppenheimer funds.

      Prior to joining the Manager in September 2000, he was a portfolio
      manager of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Investment Management (from 1997)
      prior to which he was a portfolio manager and equity analyst of Crestar
      Asset Management (from 1995).


Advisory Fees. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the
      Manager an advisory fee at an annual rate that declines on additional
      assets as the Fund grows: 0.625% of the first $300 million of average
      annual net assets of the Fund, 0.500% of the next $100 million, and
      0.450% of average annual net assets in excess of $400 million.  The
      Fund's management fee for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2002, was
      0.625% of average annual net assets for each class of shares.


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.
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 don't list a dealer on the application, the
      Distributor will act as your agent in buying the 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.
o     Paying by Federal Funds Wire. Shares purchased through the Distributor
      may be paid for by Federal Funds wire. The minimum investment 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 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 those 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 each month 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.


HOW MUCH MUST YOU 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.
      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 subsequent investments (after making the initial
         investment of $500) for as little as $50. For any type of account
         established under one of these plans prior to November 1, 2002, the

      minimum additional investment will remain $25.
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.

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

      The net asset value per share is determined by dividing the value of
      the Fund's net assets attributable to a class by the number of shares
      of that class that are outstanding. To determine net asset value, the
      Fund's Board of Directors has established procedures to value the
      Fund's securities, in general, based on market 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 special procedures for valuing illiquid
      and restricted securities and obligations for which market values
      cannot be readily obtained.

      If, after the close of the principal market on which a security held by
      the Fund is traded, and before the time the Fund's securities are
      priced that day, an event occurs that the Manager deems likely to cause
      a material change in the value of such security, the Fund's Board of
      Directors has authorized the Manager, subject to the Board's review, to
      ascertain a fair value for such security.  A security's valuation may
      differ depending on the method used for determining value.

The Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, in
      most cases the Distributor or its designated agent must receive your
      order by the time The New York Stock Exchange closes that day. If your
      order is received on a day when the Exchange 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 a dealer, your dealer
      must receive the order by the close of The New York Stock Exchange and
      transmit it to the Distributor so that it is received before the
      Distributor's close of business on a regular business day (normally
      5:00 P.M.) to receive that day's offering price, unless your dealer has
      made alternative arrangements with the Distributor. Otherwise, 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 special agreements 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 probably consider purchasing 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.

      And for non-retirement plan investors who 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 $500,000 or
      more of Class B shares or $1 million or more of Class C shares from a
      single investor.

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. Share certificates are
      only available for Class A shares. If you are considering using your
      shares as collateral for a loan, that may be a factor to consider.

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 for its customers.


SPECIAL SALES CHARGE ARRANGEMENTS AND WAIVERS. Appendix C 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.


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:







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

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

Can You Reduce Class A Sales Charges? You may be eligible to buy Class A
      shares at reduced sales charge rates under the Fund's "Right of
      Accumulation" or a Letter of Intent, as described in "Reduced Sales
      Charges" in the Statement of Additional Information.

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 for certain purchases by particular
      types of retirement plans that were permitted to purchase such shares
      prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement accounts").
      Retirement 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 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.

Purchases by Certain Retirement Plans. There is no initial sales charge on
      purchases of Class A shares of any one or more Oppenheimer funds by
      retirement plans that have $10 million or more in plan assets and that
      have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor and by
      retirement plans which are part of a retirement plan product or
      platform offered by certain banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors,
      insurance companies or recordkeepers which have entered into a special
      agreement with the Distributor. The Distributor currently pays dealers
      of record concessions in an amount equal to 0.25% of the purchase price
      of Class A shares by those retirement plans from its own resources at
      the time of sale, subject to certain exceptions as described in the
      Statement of Additional Information. There is no contingent deferred
      sales charge upon the redemption of such shares.

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

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

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More than 6                             None
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the table,  a "year" is a  12-month  period.  In  applying  the  contingent
deferred  sales charge,  all purchases are considered to have been made on the
first regular business day of the month in which the purchase was made.

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

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

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

      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 and employee benefit
plans. 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 quarterly 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. During the first year the shares are sold, the Distributor
      retains the service fee. After the shares have been held for a year,
      the Distributor pays the service fee to dealers on a quarterly basis.


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 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 on a quarterly basis. The Distributor retains
      the service fees for accounts for which it renders the required
      personal services.

      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 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.
      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
      retains the asset-based sales charge on Class N shares. See the
      Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

AUTOMATIC WITHDRAWAL AND EXCHANGE PLANS. The Fund has several plans that
enable you to sell shares automatically or exchange them to another
OppenheimerFunds account on a regular basis. Please call the Transfer Agent
or consult the Statement of Additional Information for details.

REINVESTMENT PRIVILEGE If you redeem some or all of your Class A or Class B
shares of the Fund, you have up to six months to reinvest all or part of the
redemption proceeds in Class A shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds
without paying a sales charge. This privilege applies only to Class A shares
that you purchased subject to an initial sales charge and to Class A or Class
B shares on which you paid a contingent deferred sales charge when you
redeemed them. This privilege does not apply to Class C, Class N or Class Y
shares. You must be sure to ask the Distributor for this privilege when you
send your payment.

RETIREMENT PLANS. You may buy shares of the Fund for your retirement plan
account. If you participate in a plan sponsored by your employer, the plan
trustee or administrator must buy the shares for your plan account. The
Distributor also offers a number of different retirement plans that
individuals and employers can use:
Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These include regular IRAs, Roth IRAs,
      SIMPLE IRAs and rollover IRAs.
SEP-IRAs. These are Simplified Employee Pension Plan IRAs for small business
      owners or self-employed individuals.
403(b)(7) Custodial Plans. These are tax-deferred plans for employees of
      eligible tax-exempt organizations, such as schools, hospitals and
      charitable organizations.
401(k) Plans. These are special retirement plans for businesses.
Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans. These plans are designed for businesses and
      self-employed individuals.
      Please call the Distributor for OppenheimerFunds retirement plan
documents, which include applications and important plan information.

How to Sell Shares

You can sell (redeem) some or all of your shares on any regular business day.
Your shares will be sold at the next net asset value calculated after your
order is received 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.

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

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


Use the following address for            Send courier or express mail
requests by mail:                        requests to:
OppenheimerFunds Services                OppenheimerFunds Services

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 New York Stock Exchange
that day, which is normally 4:00 P.M., but may be earlier on some days. You
may not redeem shares held in an OppenheimerFunds 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 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 C 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 C 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

Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of certain Oppenheimer funds
at net asset value per share at the time of exchange, without sales charge.
Shares of the Fund can be purchased by exchange of shares of other
Oppenheimer funds on the same basis. 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 prospectuses of both funds must offer the exchange privilege.
   o  You must hold the shares you buy when you establish your account for at
      least seven days before you can exchange them. After the account is
      open seven days, you can exchange shares every regular business day.
   o  You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the fund whose
      shares you purchase by exchange.
   o  Before exchanging into a fund, you must obtain and read its prospectus.
      Shares of a particular class of the Fund may be exchanged only for
shares of the same class in the other Oppenheimer funds. For example, you can
exchange Class A shares of this Fund only for Class A shares of another fund.
In some cases, sales charges may be imposed on exchange transactions. For tax
purposes, exchanges of shares involve a sale of the shares of the fund you
own and a purchase of the shares of the other fund, which may result in a
capital gain or loss. Please refer to "How to Exchange Shares" in the
Statement of Additional Information for more details.

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

HOW DO you SUBMIT EXCHANGE REQUESTS? Exchanges may be requested in writing or
by telephone:

Written Exchange Requests. Submit an OppenheimerFunds Exchange Request form,
      signed by all owners of the account. Send it to the Transfer Agent at
      the address on the back cover. Exchanges of shares held under
      certificates cannot be processed unless the Transfer Agent receives the
      certificates with the request.
Telephone  Exchange  Requests.  Telephone exchange requests may be made either
      by calling a service  representative or by using PhoneLink for automated
      exchanges by calling  1.800.225.5677.  Telephone  exchanges  may be made
      only  between  accounts  that are  registered  with the same name(s) and
      address.  Shares  held  under  certificates  may  not  be  exchanged  by
      telephone.

ARE THERE LIMITATIONS ON EXCHANGES? There are certain exchange policies you
should be aware of:
o     Shares are redeemed from one fund and purchased from the other fund in
      the exchange transaction on the same regular business day on which the
      Transfer Agent receives an exchange request that conforms to the
      policies described above. It must be received by the close of The New
      York Stock Exchange that day, which is normally 4:00 P.M. but may be
      earlier on some days.
o     The interests of the Fund's long-term shareholders and its ability to
      manage its investments may be adversely affected when its shares are
      repeatedly bought and sold in response to short-term market
      fluctuations--also known as "market timing." When large dollar amounts
      are involved, the Fund may have difficulty implementing long-term
      investment strategies, because it cannot predict how much cash it will
      have to invest. Market timing also may force the Fund to sell portfolio
      securities at disadvantageous times to raise the cash needed to buy a
      market timer's Fund shares. These factors may hurt the Fund's
      performance and its shareholders. When the Manager believes frequent
      trading would have a disruptive effect on the Fund's ability to manage
      its investments, the Manager and the Fund may reject purchase orders
      and exchanges into the Fund by any person, group or account that the
      Manager believes to be a market timer.
   o  The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
      time. The Fund will provide you notice whenever it is required to do so
      by applicable law, but it may impose changes at any time for emergency
      purposes.
   o  If the Transfer Agent cannot exchange all the shares you request
      because of a restriction cited above, only the shares eligible for
      exchange will be exchanged.


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 fee is assessed on any account valued at less than $500. The fee
      is automatically deducted from accounts annually on or about the second
      to last business day of September. See the Statement of Additional
      Information, or visit the OppenheimerFunds website, to learn how you
      can avoid this fee and for circumstances when 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 Directors 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, or arrange with your bank to provide telephone or written
      assurance to the Transfer Agent that your purchase payment has cleared.
Involuntary redemptions of small accounts may be made by the Fund if the
      account has fewer than 100 shares. 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.
"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 to pay them to
shareholders in December on a date selected by the Board of Directors.
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 in December of each year. 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.

Avoid "Buying a Dividend."  If you buy shares on or just before the Fund
      declares a dividend or 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 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 auditors, whose report, along with the Fund's financial
statements, is included in the Statement of Additional Information, which is
available on 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 goal. It may use some of the special investment techniques and
strategies at some times or not at all.

In selecting equity investments for the Fund's portfolio, the portfolio
managers currently use both "value" and "growth" investing styles.

|X| Value Investing. In selecting equity investments for the Fund's
portfolio, the portfolio managers currently use a value investing style
coupled with fundamental analysis of issuers. In using a value approach, the
managers look for stocks and other equity securities that appear to be
temporarily undervalued, by various measures, such as price/earnings ratios.
Value investing seeks stocks having prices that are low in relation to their
real worth or future prospects, with the expectation that the Fund will
realize appreciation in the value of its holdings when other investors
realize the intrinsic value of the stock.

Using value investing requires research as to the issuer's underlying
financial condition and prospects. Some of the measures used to identify
these securities include, among others:

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

o Price/book value ratio, which is the stock price divided by the book
value of the company per share. It measures the company's stock price in
relation to its asset value.

o Dividend Yield, which is measured by dividing the annual dividend by
the stock price per share.
o Valuation of Assets which compares the stock price to the value of the
company's underlying assets, including their projected value in the
marketplace, liquidation value and intellectual property value.

|X| Growth Investing. In using a growth approach, the Funds' portfolio
managers look for high-growth companies. Currently, the portfolio managers,
look for:
o Companies that have exceptional revenue growth
o Companies with above-average earnings growth
o Companies that can sustain exceptional revenue and earnings growth
o Companies that are well established as leaders in high growth markets
|X| Investments in Stocks and Other Equity Securities. The Fund does
not limit its investments in equity securities to issuers having a market
capitalization of a specified size or range, and therefore may invest in
securities of small-, mid- and large-capitalization issuers. At times, the
Fund may have substantial amounts of its assets invested in securities of
issuers in one or more capitalization ranges, based upon the Manager's use of
its investment strategies and its judgment of where the best market
opportunities are to seek the Fund's objective.

At times, the market may favor or disfavor securities of issuers of a
particular capitalization range. Securities of small capitalization issuers
may be subject to greater price volatility in general than securities of
larger companies. Therefore, if the Fund has substantial investments in
smaller capitalization companies at times of market volatility, the Fund's
share price may fluctuate more than that of funds focusing on larger
capitalization issuers.

At times, the Fund may increase the emphasis of its investments in a
particular industry. Therefore, it may be subject to the risks that economic,
political or other events can have a negative effect on the values of issuers
in that particular industry (this is referred to as "industry risk"). Stocks
of issuers in a particular industry may be affected by changes in economic
conditions that affect that industry more than others, or changes in
government regulations, availability of basic resources or supplies, or other
events. To the extent that the Fund is emphasizing investments in a
particular industry, its share values may fluctuate in response to events
affecting that industry.

o Rights and Warrants. The Fund can invest up to 5% of its total assets
in warrants or rights. That limit does not apply to warrants and rights that
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.

o Convertible Securities. Convertible securities are debt securities that
are convertible into an issuer's common stock. Convertible securities rank
senior to common stock in a corporation's capital structure and therefore are
subject to less risk than common stock in case of the issuer's bankruptcy or
liquidation.

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: it will likely
sell at a premium over its conversion value, and its price will tend to
fluctuate directly with the price of the underlying security.

While many convertible securities are a form of debt security, in some
cases their conversion feature (allowing conversion into equity securities)
causes the Manager to regard them more as "equity equivalents." In those
cases, the credit rating assigned to the security has less impact on the
Manager's investment decision than in the case of non-convertible fixed
income securities. Convertible securities are subject to the credit risks and
interest rate risks described above. To determine whether convertible
securities should be regarded as "equity equivalents," the Manager may
examine 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.

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

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

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

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

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

|X| Investments in Bonds and Other Debt Securities. The Fund can
invest in a variety of bonds, debentures and other debt securities to seek
its objective. It will invest at least 25% of its assets in fixed-income
senior securities and could have a larger portion of its assets in debt
investments.
The Fund's debt investments can include investment-grade and
non-investment-grade bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").
Investment-grade bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc., ("Moody's") or at least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Rating
Services ("S&P") or Fitch, Inc., ("Fitch") or that have comparable ratings by
another nationally-recognized rating organization. In making investments in
debt securities, the Manager may rely to some extent on the ratings of
ratings organizations or it may use its own research to evaluate a security's
credit-worthiness. If the securities that the Fund buys are unrated, to be
considered part of the Fund's holdings of investment-grade securities, they
must be judged by the Manager to be of comparable quality to bonds rated as
investment grade by a rating organization.

Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. It is not anticipated
that the Fund will normally invest a substantial portion of its assets in
lower-grade debt securities. Because lower-grade securities tend to offer
higher yields than investment-grade securities, the Fund may invest in lower
grade securities if the Manager is trying to achieve greater income (and, in
some cases, the appreciation possibilities of lower-grade securities might be
a reason they are selected for the Fund's portfolio). High-yield convertible
debt securities might be selected as "equity substitutes," as described above.

As mentioned above, "lower-grade" debt securities are those rated below
"investment grade," which means they have a rating lower than "Baa" by
Moody's or lower than "BBB" by S&P or Fitch, or similar ratings by other
nationally recognized rating organizations. If they are unrated, and are
determined by the Manager to be of comparable quality to debt securities
rated below investment grade, they are included in the limitation on the
percentage of the Fund's assets that can be invested in lower-grade
securities, as stated in the Prospectus. The Fund can invest in securities
rated as low as "B" at the time the Fund buys them.

While securities rated "Baa" by Moody's or "BBB" by S&P or Fitch are
investment grade and are not regarded as junk bonds, those securities may be
subject to greater risks than other investment-grade securities, and have
some speculative characteristics. Definitions of the debt security ratings
categories of Moody's, S&P and Fitch are included in Appendix A to this
Statement of Additional Information.

Credit Risk. Some of the special credit risks of lower-grade securities are
discussed in the Prospectus. There is a greater risk that the issuer may
default on its obligation to pay interest or to repay principal than in the
case of investment grade securities. The issuer's low creditworthiness may
increase the potential for its insolvency. An overall decline in values in
the high yield bond market is also more likely during a period of a general
economic downturn. An economic downturn or an increase in interest rates
could severely disrupt the market for high yield bonds, adversely affecting
the values of outstanding bonds as well as the ability of issuers to pay
interest or repay principal. In the case of foreign high yield bonds, these
risks are in addition to the special risks of foreign investing discussed in
the Prospectus and in this Statement of Additional Information.

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

Fluctuations in the market value of fixed-income securities after the
Fund buys them will not affect the interest income payable on those
securities (unless the security pays interest at a variable rate pegged to
interest rate changes). However, those price fluctuations will be reflected
in the valuations of the securities, and therefore the Fund's net asset
values will be affected by those fluctuations.
|X| Mortgage-Related Securities. Mortgage-related securities are a form of
derivative investment collateralized by pools of commercial or residential
mortgages. Pools of mortgage loans are assembled as securities for sale to
investors by government agencies or instrumentalities or by private issuers.
These securities include collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"),
mortgage pass-through securities, stripped mortgage pass-through securities,
interests in real estate mortgage investment conduits ("REMICs") and other
real estate-related securities.

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

As with other debt securities, the prices of mortgage-related
securities tend to move inversely to changes in interest rates. The Fund can
buy mortgage-related securities that have interest rates that move inversely
to changes in general interest rates, based on a multiple of a specific
index. Although the value of a mortgage-related security may decline when
interest rates rise, the converse is not always the case.

In periods of declining interest rates, mortgages are more likely to be
prepaid. Therefore, a mortgage-related security's maturity can be shortened
by unscheduled prepayments on the underlying mortgages, and it is not
possible to predict accurately the security's yield. The principal that is
returned earlier than expected may have to be reinvested in other investments
having a lower yield than the prepaid security. As a result, these securities
may be less effective as a means of "locking in" attractive long-term
interest rates, and they may have less potential for appreciation during
periods of declining interest rates, than conventional bonds with comparable
stated maturities.

Prepayment risks can lead to substantial fluctuations in the value of a
mortgage-related security. In turn, this can affect the value of the Fund's
shares. If a mortgage-related security has been purchased at a premium, all
or part of the premium the Fund paid may be lost if there is a decline in the
market value of the security, whether that results from interest rate changes
or prepayments on the underlying mortgages. In the case of stripped
mortgage-related securities, if they experience greater rates of prepayment
than were anticipated, the Fund may fail to recoup its initial investment on
the security.

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

As with other debt securities, the values of mortgage-related
securities may be affected by changes in the market's perception of the
creditworthiness of the entity issuing the securities or guaranteeing them.
Their values may also be affected by changes in government regulations and
tax policies.

o Collateralized Mortgage Obligations. CMOs are multi-class bonds that
are backed by pools of mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through certificates.
They may be collateralized by:
(1) pass-through certificates issued or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie
Mae, or Freddie Mac,
(2) unsecuritized mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing
Administration or guaranteed by the Department of
Veterans' Affairs,
(3) unsecuritized conventional mortgages,
(4) other mortgage-related securities, or
(5) any combination of these.

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

o Forward Rolls. The Fund can enter into "forward roll" transactions with
respect to mortgage-related securities in amounts up to 50% of its net
assets. In this type of transaction, the Fund sells a mortgage-related
security to a buyer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar
security (the same type of security, and having the same coupon and maturity)
at a later date at a set price. The securities that are repurchased will have
the same interest rate as the securities that are sold, but typically will be
collateralized by different pools of mortgages (with different prepayment
histories) than the securities that have been sold. Proceeds from the sale
are invested in short-term instruments, such as repurchase agreements. The
income from those investments, plus the fees from the forward roll
transaction, are expected to generate income to the Fund in excess of the
yield on the securities that have been sold.

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

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

|X| U.S. Government Securities. These are securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or other government agencies or
federally-chartered corporate entities referred to as "instrumentalities."
The obligations of U.S. government agencies or instrumentalities in which the
Fund may invest may or may not be guaranteed or supported by the "full faith
and credit" of the United States. "Full faith and credit" means generally
that the taxing power of the U.S. government is pledged to the payment of
interest and repayment of principal on a security. If a security is not
backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, the owner of the
security must look principally to the agency issuing the obligation for
repayment. The owner might not be able to assert a claim against the United
States if the issuing agency or instrumentality does not meet its commitment.
The Fund will invest in securities of U.S. government agencies and
instrumentalities only if the Manager is satisfied that the credit risk with
respect to the agency or instrumentality is minimal.
o U.S. Treasury Obligations. These include Treasury bills
(maturities of one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (maturities of 1
to 10 years), and Treasury bonds (maturities of more than 10 years). Treasury
securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States as to
timely payments of interest and repayments of principal. They also can
include U.S. Treasury securities that have been "stripped" by a Federal
Reserve Bank, zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities described below, and
Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities ("TIPS").

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

o Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
Instrumentalities. These include direct obligations and mortgage-related
securities that have different levels of credit support from the government.
Some are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, such
as Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") pass-through mortgage
certificates (called "Ginnie Maes"). Some are supported by the right of the
issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury under certain circumstances, such as
Federal National Mortgage Association bonds ("Fannie Maes"). Others are
supported only by the credit of the entity that issued them, such as Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation obligations ("Freddie Macs").

|X| U.S. Government Mortgage-Related Securities. The Fund can invest in a
variety of mortgage-related securities that are issued by U.S. government
agencies or instrumentalities, some of which are described below.

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

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

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

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

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

o Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") Certificates. FHLMC, a
corporate instrumentality of the United States, issues FHLMC Certificates
representing interests in mortgage loans. FHLMC guarantees to each registered
holder of a FHLMC Certificate timely payment of the amounts representing a
holder's proportionate share in:
(i) interest payments less servicing and guarantee fees,
(ii) principal prepayments, and
(iii) the ultimate collection of amounts representing the holder's
proportionate interest in principal payments on the
mortgage loans in the pool represented by the FHLMC
Certificate, in each case whether or not such amounts are
actually received.

The obligations of FHLMC under its guarantees are obligations solely of
FHLMC and are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.

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

|X| Zero-Coupon U.S. Government Securities. The Fund may buy zero-coupon
U.S. government securities. These will typically be U.S. Treasury Notes and
Bonds that have been stripped of their unmatured interest coupons, the
coupons themselves, or certificates representing interests in those stripped
debt obligations and coupons.

Zero-coupon securities do not make periodic interest payments and are
sold at a deep discount from their face value at maturity. The buyer
recognizes a rate of return determined by the gradual appreciation of the
security, which is redeemed at face value on a specified maturity date. This
discount depends on the time remaining until maturity, as well as prevailing
interest rates, the liquidity of the security and the credit quality of the
issuer. The discount typically decreases as the maturity date approaches.

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 that pay
interest. Their value may fall more dramatically than the value of
interest-bearing securities when interest rates rise. When prevailing
interest rates fall, zero-coupon securities tend to rise more rapidly in
value because they have a fixed rate of return.

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

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

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

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

|X| Municipal Securities. The Fund can buy municipal
bonds and notes, tax-exempt commercial paper, certificates of participation
in municipal leases and other debt obligations. These debt obligations are
issued by the governments of states, as well as their political subdivisions
(such as cities, towns and counties), or by the District of Columbia and
their agencies and authorities. The Fund can also buy securities issued by
any commonwealths, territories or possessions of the United States, or their
respective agencies, instrumentalities or authorities. The Fund would invest
in municipal securities because of the income and portfolio diversification
they offer rather than for the tax-exempt nature of the income they pay.

The Fund can buy both long-term and short-term municipal securities.
Long-term securities have a maturity of more than one year. In selecting
municipal securities the Fund would normally focus on longer-term securities,
to seek higher income. In general, the values of longer-term bonds are more
affected by changes in interest rates than are short-term bonds.

Municipal securities are issued to raise money for a variety of public
or private purposes, including financing state or local governments,
financing specific projects or public facilities. The Fund can invest in
municipal securities that are "general obligations," secured by the issuer's
pledge of its full faith, credit and taxing power for the payment of
principal and interest.

The Fund can also buy "revenue obligations," payable only from the
revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities, or a
specific excise tax or other revenue source. Some of these revenue
obligations are private activity bonds that pay interest that may be a tax
preference for investors subject to alternative minimum tax.

o Municipal Lease Obligations. Municipal leases are used by state and
local government authorities to obtain funds to acquire land, equipment or
facilities. The Fund may invest in certificates of participation that
represent a proportionate interest in payments made under municipal lease
obligations. If the government stops making payments or transfers its payment
obligations to a private entity, the obligation could lose value or become
taxable.

|X| Money Market Instruments and Short-Term Debt Obligations. The
Fund can invest in a variety of high quality money market instruments and
short-term debt obligations, both under normal market conditions and for
defensive purposes. The following is a brief description of the types of
money market securities and short-term debt obligations the Fund can invest
in. Those money market securities are high-quality, short-term debt
instruments that are issued by the U.S. government, corporations, banks or
other entities. They may have fixed, variable or floating interest rates. The
Fund's investments in foreign money market instruments and short-term debt
obligations are subject to its limits on investing in foreign securities and
the risks of foreign investing, described above.
o U.S. Government Securities. These include obligations issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities.

o Bank Obligations. The Fund can buy time deposits, certificates of
deposit and bankers' acceptances. They must be :
o obligations issued or guaranteed by a domestic or foreign bank

(including a foreign branch of a domestic bank) having
total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion, and

o banker's acceptances (which may or may not be supported by letters of
credit) only if guaranteed by a U.S. commercial bank with
total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion.

The Fund can make time deposits. These are non-negotiable deposits in a
bank for a specified period of time. They may be subject to early withdrawal
penalties. Time deposits that are subject to early withdrawal penalties are
subject to the Fund's limits on illiquid investments, as described below.
"Banks" include commercial banks, savings banks and savings and loan
associations.

o Commercial Paper. The Fund can invest in commercial paper if it is
rated within the top two rating categories of S&P and Moody's. If the paper
is not rated, it may be purchased if issued by a company having a credit
rating of at least "AA" by S&P or "Aa" by Moody's.

The Fund can buy commercial paper, including U.S. dollar-denominated
securities of foreign branches of U.S. banks, issued by other entities if the
commercial paper is guaranteed as to principal and interest by a bank,
government or corporation whose certificates of deposit or commercial paper
may otherwise be purchased by the Fund.

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

Because these notes are direct lending arrangements between the lender
and borrower, it is not expected that there will be a trading market for
them. There is no secondary market for these notes, although they are
redeemable (and thus are immediately repayable by the borrower) at principal
amount, plus accrued interest, at any time. Accordingly, the Fund's right to
redeem such notes is dependent upon the ability of the borrower to pay
principal and interest on demand.

The Fund has no limitations on the type of issuer from whom these notes
will be purchased. However, in connection with such purchases and on an
ongoing basis, the Manager will consider the earning power, cash flow and
other liquidity ratios of the issuer, and its ability to pay principal and
interest on demand, including a situation in which all holders of such notes
made demand simultaneously. Investments in master demand notes are subject to
the limitation on investments by the Fund in illiquid securities, as
described below. Currently, the Fund does not intend that its investments in
variable amount master demand notes will exceed 5% of its total assets.

|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, depending on market conditions, and
the Fund may have a portfolio turnover 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| Foreign Securities. The Fund can purchase up to 25% of its total
assets in foreign securities. "Foreign securities" include equity and debt
securities of companies organized under the laws of countries other than the
United States and debt securities of foreign governments and their agencies
and instrumentalities. Those securities may be traded on foreign securities
exchanges or in the foreign over-the-counter markets.

Securities of foreign issuers that are represented by American
Depository Receipts or that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange or
traded in the U.S. over-the-counter markets are 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 can purchase securities denominated in foreign
currencies, a change in the value of a foreign currency against the U.S.
dollar could result in a change in the amount of income the Fund has
available for distribution. Because a portion of the Fund's investment income
may be received in foreign currencies, the Fund will be required to compute
its income in U.S. dollars for distribution to shareholders, and therefore
the Fund will absorb the cost of currency fluctuations. After the Fund has
distributed income, subsequent foreign currency losses may result in the
Fund's having distributed more income in a particular fiscal period than was
available from investment income, which could result in a return of capital
to shareholders.

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

o 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 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 foreign exchange contracts;
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, nationalization,
confiscatory taxation, political, financial or social
instability or adverse diplomatic developments; and
o unfavorable differences between the U.S. economy and foreign economies.

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

o Special Risks of Emerging Markets. Emerging and developing markets
abroad may also offer special opportunities for investing but have greater
risks than more developed foreign markets, such as those in Europe, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand and Japan. There may be even less liquidity in their
securities markets, and settlements of purchases and sales of securities may
be subject to additional delays. They are subject to greater risks of
limitations on the repatriation of income and profits because of currency
restrictions imposed by local governments. Those countries may also be
subject to the risk of greater political and economic instability, which can
greatly affect the volatility of prices of securities in those countries. The
Manager will consider these factors when evaluating securities in these
markets, because the selection of those securities must be consistent with
the Fund's investment objective. The Fund currently expects that it will not
invest significantly in emerging market countries.

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

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

|X| Floating Rate and Variable Rate Obligations. Some securities the
Fund can purchase have variable or floating interest rates. Variable rates
are adjusted at stated periodic intervals. Variable rate obligations can have
a demand feature that allows the Fund to tender the obligation to the issuer
or a third party prior to its maturity. The tender may be at par value plus
accrued interest, according to the terms of the obligations.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

When such transactions are negotiated, the price (which is generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made.
Delivery and payment for the securities take place at a later date. The
securities are subject to change in value from market fluctuations during the
period until settlement. The value at delivery may be less than the purchase
price. For example, changes in interest rates in a direction other than that
expected by the Manager before settlement will affect the value of such
securities and may cause a loss to the Fund. During the period between
purchase and settlement, the Fund makes no payment to the issuer and no
interest accrues to the Fund from the investment until it receives the
security at settlement. There is a risk of loss to the Fund if the value of
the security changes prior to the settlement date, and there is the risk that
the other party may not perform.

The Fund may engage in when-issued transactions to secure what the
Manager considers to be an advantageous price and yield at the time the
obligation is entered into. When the Fund enters into a when-issued or
delayed-delivery transaction, it relies on the other party to complete the
transaction. Its failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity
to obtain the security at a price and yield the Manager considers to be
advantageous.

When the Fund engages in when-issued and delayed-delivery transactions,
it does so for the purpose of acquiring or selling securities consistent with
its investment objective and policies for its portfolio or for delivery
pursuant to options contracts it has entered into, and not for the purposes
of investment leverage. Although the Fund will enter into when-issued or
delayed-delivery purchase transactions to acquire securities, the Fund may
dispose of a commitment prior to settlement. If the Fund chooses to dispose
of the right to acquire a when-issued security prior to its acquisition or to
dispose of its right to deliver or receive against a forward commitment, it
may incur a gain or loss.
At the time the Fund makes the commitment to purchase or sell a
security on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis, it records the
transaction on its books and reflects the value of the security purchased in
determining the Fund's net asset value. In a sale transaction, it records the
proceeds to be received. The Fund will identify on its books liquid assets at
least equal in value to the value of the Fund's purchase commitments until
the Fund pays for the investment.

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

|X| 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 defensive purposes.

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 policy limits on holding illiquid investments,
described below. The Fund cannot 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 of 1940 (the `Investment Company Act"), are collateralized by the
underlying security. The Fund's repurchase agreements require that at all
times while the repurchase agreement is in effect, the value of the
collateral must equal or exceed the repurchase price to fully collateralize
the repayment obligation. However, if the vendor fails to pay the resale
price on the delivery date, the Fund may incur costs in disposing of the
collateral and may experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to
do so. The Manager will monitor the vendor's creditworthiness to confirm that
the vendor is financially sound and will continuously monitor the
collateral's value.

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

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

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

|X| Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Under the policies and
procedures established by the Fund's Board of Directors, 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, 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| Borrowing. From time to time, the Fund may borrow from banks or
affiliated investment companies. Such borrowing may be used to fund
shareholder redemptions or for other purposes. Currently, under the
Investment Company Act, absent exemptive relief, a mutual fund may borrow
only from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow is up to one-third of
its total assets (including the amount borrowed) less all liabilities and
indebtedness other than borrowing. The Fund may also borrow up to 5% of its
total assets for temporary purposes from any person. Under the Investment
Company Act, there is a rebuttable presumption that a loan is temporary if it
is repaid within 60 days and not extended or renewed. In addition, as
discussed below, the Fund can borrow from affiliated mutual funds. If the
value of the Fund's assets so computed should fail to meet the 300% asset
coverage requirement, the Fund is required within three days to reduce its
bank debt to the extent necessary to meet such requirement. To do so, it
might have to sell a portion of its investments at a time when independent
investment judgment would not dictate such sale.

Since substantially all of the Fund's assets fluctuate in value, but
borrowing obligations are fixed, when the Fund has outstanding borrowings, its
net asset value per share correspondingly will tend to increase and decrease
more when portfolio assets fluctuate in value than otherwise would be the
case. While the Fund borrow a greater amount, as discussed in the immediately
preceding paragraph, the Fund currently does not expect its borrowings to
exceed 5% of its total assets.

The Fund will pay interest on its borrowings, and that interest expense
will raise the overall expenses of the Fund and reduce its returns. Borrowing
may subject the Fund to greater risks and costs than funds that do not
borrow. These risks may include the possible reduction of income and
increased fluctuation or volatility in the Fund's net asset value per share.

|X| Loans of Portfolio Securities. To attempt to generate income, the Fund
may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial
institutions. The Fund presently does not intend to lend its portfolio
securities, but if it does, these loans are limited to not more than
one-third of the Fund's net assets and are subject to other conditions
described below.

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

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

Interfund Borrowing and Lending Arrangements. Consistent with its
fundamental policies and pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Fund may engage in borrowing
and lending activities with other funds in the OppenheimerFunds complex.
Borrowing money from affiliated funds may afford the Fund the flexibility to
use the most cost-effective alternative to satisfy its borrowing
requirements. Lending money to an affiliated fund may allow the Fund to
obtain a higher rate of return than it could from interest rates on
alternative short-term investments. Implementation of interfund lending will
be accomplished consistent with applicable regulatory requirements, including
the provisions of the SEC order.

Interfund Borrowing. The Fund will not borrow from affiliated funds
unless the terms of the borrowing arrangement are at least as favorable as
the terms the Fund could otherwise negotiate with a third party. To assure
that the Fund will not be disadvantaged by borrowing from an affiliated fund,
certain safeguards may be implemented. Examples of these safeguards include
the following:

o the Fund will not borrow money from affiliated funds unless the
interest rate is more favorable than available bank loan
rates;
o the Fund's borrowing from affiliated funds must be consistent with its
investment objective and investment policies;

o the loan rates will be the average of the overnight repurchase
agreement rate available through the OppenheimerFunds joint
repurchase agreement account and a pre-established formula
based on quotations from independent banks to approximate the
lowest interest rate at which bank loans would be available to
the Fund;

o if the Fund has outstanding borrowings from all sources greater than
10% of its total assets, then the Fund must secure each
additional outstanding interfund loan by segregating liquid
assets of the Fund as collateral;
o the Fund cannot borrow from an affiliated fund in excess of 125% of its
total redemptions for the preceding seven days;
o each interfund loan may be repaid on any day by the Fund; and
o the Trustees will be provided with a report of all interfund loans and
the Trustees will monitor all such borrowings to ensure that
the Fund's participation is appropriate.

There is a risk that the Fund could have an interfund loan called on
one day's notice. In that circumstance, the Fund might have to borrow from a
bank at a higher interest cost if money to lend were not available from
another Oppenheimer fund.

Interfund Lending. To assure that the Fund will not be disadvantaged
by making loans to affiliated funds, certain safeguards will be implemented.
Examples of these safeguards include the following:

o the Fund will not lend money to affiliated funds unless the interest
rate on such loan is determined to be reasonable under the
circumstances;

o the Fund may not make interfund loans in excess of 15% of its net

assets;
o an interfund loan to any one affiliated fund shall not exceed 5% of the
Fund's net assets;
o an interfund loan may not be outstanding for more than seven days;
o each interfund loan may be called on one business day's notice; and
o the Manager will provide the Trustees reports on all interfund loans
demonstrating that the Fund's participation is appropriate and
that the loan is consistent with its investment objectives and
policies.

When the Fund lends assets to another affiliated fund, the Fund is
subject to the risk that the borrowing fund fails to repay the loan.

|X| Derivatives. The Fund may invest in a variety of derivative
investments to seek income for liquidity needs or for hedging purposes. Some
derivative investments the Fund may use are the hedging instruments described
below in this Statement of Additional Information.

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.

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

o "Inverse Floaters." Certain types of variable rate bonds known as
"inverse floaters" pay interest at rates that vary as the yields generally
available on short-term tax-exempt bonds change. However, the yields on
inverse floaters move in the opposite direction of yields on short-term bonds
in response to market changes. As interest rates rise, inverse floaters
produce less current income, and their market value can become volatile.
Inverse floaters are a type of "derivative security." Some have a "cap," so
that if interest rates rise above the "cap," the security pays additional
interest income. If rates do not rise above the "cap," the Fund will have
paid an additional amount for a feature that proves worthless. The Fund will
not invest more than 5% of its total assets in inverse floaters.

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

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

Credit Derivatives. The Fund may enter into credit default swaps,
both directly ("unfunded swaps") and indirectly in the form of a swap
embedded within a structured note ("funded swaps"), to protect against the
risk that a security will default. Unfunded and funded credit default swaps
may be on a single security, or on a basket of securities. The Fund pays a
fee to enter into the swap and receives a fixed payment during the life of
the swap. The Fund may take a short position in the credit default swap (also
known as "buying credit protection"), or may take a long position in the
credit default swap note (also known as "selling credit protection").

The Fund would take a short position in a credit default swap (the
"unfunded swap") against a long portfolio position to decrease exposure to
specific high yield issuers. If the short credit default swap is against a
corporate issue, the Fund must own that corporate issue. However, if the
short credit default swap is against sovereign debt, the Fund may own either:
(i) the reference obligation, (ii) any sovereign debt of that foreign
country, or (iii) sovereign debt of any country that the Manager determines
is closely correlated as an inexact bona fide hedge.

If the Fund takes a short position in the credit default swap, if there
is a credit event (including bankruptcy, failure to timely pay interest or
principal, or a restructuring), the Fund will deliver the defaulted bonds and
the swap counterparty will pay the par amount of the bonds. An associated
risk is adverse pricing when purchasing bonds to satisfy the delivery
obligation. If the swap is on a basket of securities, the notional amount of
the swap is reduced by the par amount of the defaulted bond, and the fixed
payments are then made on the reduced notional amount.

Taking a long position in the credit default swap note (i.e.,
purchasing the "funded swap") would increase the Fund's exposure to specific
high yield corporate issuers. The goal would be to increase liquidity in
that market sector via the swap note and its associated increase in the
number of trading instruments, the number and type of market participants,
and market capitalization.

If the Fund takes a long position in the credit default swap note, if
there is a credit event the Fund will pay the par amount of the bonds and the
swap counterparty will deliver the bonds. If the swap is on a basket of
securities, the notional amount of the swap is reduced by the par amount of
the defaulted bond, and the fixed payments are then made on the reduced
notional amount.

The Fund will invest no more than 25% of its total assets in "unfunded"
credit default swaps. The Fund will limit its investments in "funded" credit
default swap notes to no more than 10% of its total assets.

Other risks of credit default swaps include the cost of paying for
credit protection if there are no credit events, pricing transparency when
assessing the cost of a credit default swap, counterparty risk, and the need
to fund the delivery obligation (either cash or the defaulted bonds,
depending on whether the Fund is long or short the swap, respectively).

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

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

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

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

A broadly-based stock index is used as the basis for trading stock
index futures. An index 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.

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

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

At any time prior to expiration of the future, the Fund may elect to
close out its position by taking an opposite position, at which time a final
determination of variation margin is made and any additional cash must be
paid by or released to the Fund. Any loss or gain on the future is then
realized by the Fund for tax purposes. All futures transactions, except
forward contracts, are effected through a clearinghouse associated with the
exchange on which the contracts are traded.
o Put and Call Options. The Fund can buy and sell certain kinds of put
options ("puts") and call options ("calls"). The Fund can buy and sell
exchange-traded and over-the-counter put and call options, including index
options, securities options, currency options, commodities options, and
options on the other types of futures described above.

o Writing Covered Call Options. The Fund can write (that is, sell) 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 the specified multiple that determines the
total value of the call for each point of difference. If the value of the
underlying investment does not rise above the call price, it is likely that
the call will lapse without being exercised. In that case the Fund would
keep the cash premium.

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

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

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

The Fund may also write calls on a futures contract without owning the
futures contract or securities deliverable under the contract. To do so, at
the time the call is written, the Fund must cover the call by identifying on
its books 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.

o Writing Put Options. The Fund can sell put options. A put option on
securities gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer the
obligation to buy, the underlying investment at the exercise price during the
option period. The Fund will not write puts if, as a result, more than 50%
of the Fund's net assets would be required to be segregated to cover such put
options.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The risk of imperfect correlation increases as the composition of the
Fund's portfolio diverges from the securities included in the applicable
index. To compensate for the imperfect correlation of movements in the price
of the portfolio securities being hedged and movements in the price of the
hedging instruments, the Fund 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.

o Forward Contracts. Forward contracts are foreign currency exchange
contracts. They are used to buy or sell foreign currency for future delivery
at a fixed price. The Fund uses them to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a
security denominated in a foreign currency that the Fund has bought or sold,
or to protect against possible losses from changes in the relative values of
the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency. The Fund 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.

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

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

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

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

The Fund can enter into swap transactions with certain counterparties
pursuant to master netting agreements. A master netting agreement provides
that all swaps done between the Fund and that counterparty shall be regarded
as parts of an integral agreement. If amounts are payable on a particular
date in the same currency in respect of one or more swap transactions, the
amount payable on that date in that currency shall be the net amount. In
addition, the master netting agreement may provide that if one party defaults
generally or on one swap, the counterparty can terminate all of the swaps
with that party. Under these agreements, if a default results in a loss to
one party, the measure of that party's damages is calculated by reference to
the average cost of a replacement swap for each swap. It is measured by the
mark-to-market value at the time of the termination of each swap. The gains
and losses on all swaps are then netted, and the result is the counterparty's
gain or loss on termination. The termination of all swaps and the netting of
gains and losses on termination is generally referred to as "aggregation."

o Total Return Swap Transactions. The Fund may enter into total return
swaps. The Fund will only enter into total return swaps if consistent with
its fundamental investment objectives or policies and not invest in swaps
with respect to more than 30% of the Fund's total assets. A swap contract is
essentially like a portfolio of forward contracts, under which one party
agrees to exchange an asset (for example, bushels of wheat) for another asset
(cash) at specified dates in the future. A one-period swap contract operates
in a manner similar to a forward or futures contract because there is an
agreement to swap a commodity for cash at only one forward date. The Fund may
engage in swap transactions that have more than one period and therefore more
than one exchange of assets.

The Fund may invest in total return swaps to gain exposure to the
overall commodity markets. In a total return commodity swap the Fund will
receive the price appreciation of a commodity index, a portion of the index,
or a single commodity in exchange for paying an agreed-upon fee. If the
commodity swap is for one period, the Fund will pay a fixed fee, established
at the outset of the swap. However, if the term of the commodity swap is
more than one period, with interim swap payments, the Fund will pay an
adjustable or floating fee. With a "floating" rate, the fee is pegged to a
base rate such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), and is
adjusted each period. Therefore, if interest rates increase over the term of
the swap contract, the Fund may be required to pay a higher fee at each swap
reset date. The Fund does not currently anticipate investing in total return
swaps.

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 may be affected by options written or held by other entities, including
other investment companies having the same advisor as the Fund (or an advisor
that is an affiliate of the Fund's advisor). The exchanges also impose
position limits on futures transactions. An exchange may order the
liquidation of positions found to be in violation of those limits and may
impose certain other sanctions.

Under interpretations of staff members of the Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act,
when the Fund purchases a future, it must maintain cash or readily marketable
short-term debt instruments in an amount equal to the market value of the
securities underlying the future, less the margin deposit applicable to it.

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

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

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

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

Investment in Other Investment Companies. The Fund can also invest in the
securities of other investment companies, which can include open-end funds,
closed-end funds and unit investment trusts, subject to the limits set forth
in the Investment Company Act that apply to those types of investments. For
example, the Fund can invest in Exchange-Traded Funds, which are typically
open-end funds or unit investment trusts, listed on a stock exchange. The
Fund might do so as a way of gaining exposure to the segments of the equity
or fixed-income markets represented by the Exchange-Traded Funds' portfolio,
at times when the Fund may not be able to buy those portfolio securities
directly.

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

Other Investment Restrictions

|X| What Are "Fundamental Policies?" Fundamental policies are those
policies that the Fund has adopted to govern its investments that can be
changed only by the vote of a "majority" of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities. Under the Investment Company Act, a "majority" vote is defined as
the vote of the holders of the lesser of:
o 67% or more of the shares present or represented by proxy at a
shareholder meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the
outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or
o more than 50% of the outstanding shares.
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 Directors can change non-fundamental policies without shareholder
approval. However, significant changes to investment policies will be
described in supplements or updates to the Prospectus or this Statement of
Additional Information, as appropriate. The Fund's principal investment
policies are described in the Prospectus.

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

o The Fund cannot issue senior securities. However, it can make payments
or deposits of margin in connection with options or futures transactions,
lend its portfolio securities, enter into repurchase agreements, borrow money
and pledge its assets as permitted by its other fundamental policies. For
purposes of this restriction, the issuance of shares of common stock in
multiple classes or series, the purchase or sale of options, futures
contracts and options on futures contracts, forward commitments, and
repurchase agreements entered into in accordance with the Fund's investment
policies, and the pledge, mortgage or hypothecation of the Fund's assets are
not deemed to be senior securities.

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

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

o The Fund cannot invest in physical commodities or commodities
contracts. However, the Fund can invest in hedging instruments permitted by
any of its other investment policies, and can buy or sell options, futures,
securities or other instruments backed by, or the investment return from
which is linked to, changes in the price of physical commodities, commodity
contracts or currencies.

o The Fund cannot invest in real estate or in interests in real estate.
However, the Fund can purchase securities of issuers holding real estate or
interests in real estate (including securities of real estate investment
trusts) if permitted by its other investment policies.

o The Fund cannot underwrite securities of other issuers. A permitted
exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the Securities
Act of 1933 in reselling its portfolio securities.

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

o The Fund may not borrow money, except to the extent permitted under the
Investment Company Act, the rules or regulations thereunder or any exemption
therefrom that is applicable to the Fund, as such statute, rules or
regulations may be amended or interpreted from time to time. 1

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

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

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

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 B to this Statement of Additional Information. This is not a
fundamental policy.

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History. The Fund is one of two investment portfolios, or
"series," of Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc. That corporation is an open-end,
management investment company organized as a Maryland corporation in 1981,
and was called Connecticut Mutual Investment Accounts, Inc. until March 18,
1996, when the Manager became the Fund's investment advisor. The Fund is a
diversified mutual fund, and until March 18, 1996 was called Connecticut
Mutual Total Return Account.

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

The Fund currently has four classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class
C and Class N. All classes invest in the same investment portfolio. Only
retirement plans may purchase Class N 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 may have a different net asset value,
o may have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one
class are different from interests of another class, and
o votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

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

|X| Meetings of Shareholders. Although the Fund is not required by
Maryland law to hold annual meetings, it may hold shareholder meetings from
time to time on important matters. The shareholders of the Fund's parent
corporation have the right to call a meeting to remove a Director or to take
certain other action described in the Articles of Incorporation or under
Maryland law.
The Fund will hold meetings when required to do so by the Investment
Company Act or other applicable law. The Fund will hold a meeting when the
Directors call a meeting or upon proper request of shareholders. If the
Fund's parent corporation receives a written request of the record holders of
at least 25% of the outstanding shares eligible to be voted at a meeting to
call a meeting for a specified purpose (which might include the removal of a
Director), the Directors will call a meeting of shareholders for that
specified purpose. The Fund's parent corporation has undertaken that it will
then either give the applicants access to the Fund's shareholder list or mail
the applicants' communication to all other shareholders at the applicants'
expense.

Shareholders of the Fund and of its parent corporation's other series
vote together in the aggregate on certain matters at shareholders' meetings.
Those matters include the election of Directors and ratification of
appointment of the independent auditors. Shareholders of a particular series
or class vote separately on proposals that affect that series or class.
Shareholders of a series or class that is not affected by a proposal are not
entitled to vote on the proposal. For example, only shareholders of a
particular series vote on any material amendment to the investment advisory
agreement for that series. Only shareholders of a particular class of a
series vote on certain amendments to the Distribution and/or Service Plans if
the amendments affect only that class.

Board of Directors and Oversight Committees . The Fund's parent corporation
is governed by a Board of Directors, which is responsible for protecting the
interests of shareholders under Maryland law. The Directors meet periodically
throughout the year to oversee the Fund's activities, review its performance,
and review the actions of the Manager. Although the Fund will not normally
hold annual meetings of its shareholders, it may hold shareholder meetings
from time to time on important matters, and shareholders have the right to
call a meeting to remove a Director or to take other action described in the
Fund's Articles of Incorporation.

The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee, a Study Committee and a
Proxy Committee. The Audit Committee is comprised solely of Independent
Directors. The members of the Audit Committee are Kenneth Randall (Chairman),
Benjamin Lipstein and Edward Regan. The Audit Committee held five meetings
during the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 2002. The Audit Committee
provides the Board with recommendations regarding the selection of the Fund's
independent auditor. The Audit Committee also reviews the scope and results
of audits and the audit fees charged, reviews reports from the Fund's
independent auditor concerning the Fund's internal accounting procedures, and
controls and reviews reports of the Manager's internal auditor, among other
duties as set forth in the Committee's charter.
The members of the Study Committee are Benjamin Lipstein (Chairman),
Robert Galli and Elizabeth Moynihan. The Study Committee held eight meetings
during the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 2002. The Study Committee
evaluates and reports to the Board on the Fund's contractual arrangements,
including the Investment Advisory and Distribution Agreements, transfer and
shareholder service agreements and custodian agreements as well as the
policies and procedures adopted by the Fund to comply with the Investment
Company Act and other applicable law, among other duties as set forth in the
Committee's charter.

The members of the Proxy Committee are Edward Regan (Chairman), Russell
Reynolds and Clayton Yeutter. The Proxy Committee held one meeting during the
fiscal year ended October 31, 2002.The Proxy Committee provides the Board
with recommendations for proxy voting and monitors proxy voting by the Fund.

Directors and Officers of the Fund. Except for Mr. Murphy, each of the
Directors is an independent director of the Fund ("Independent Director").
Mr. Murphy is an "Interested Director," because he is affiliated with the
Manager by virtue of his positions as an officer and director of the Manager,
and as a shareholder of its parent company.

The Fund's Directors and officers and their positions held with the
Fund and length of service in such position(s) and their principal
occupations and business affiliations during the past five years are listed
in the chart below. The information for the Directors also includes the
dollar range of shares of the Fund as well as the aggregate dollar range of
shares beneficially owned in any of the Oppenheimer funds overseen by the
Directors. All of the Directors are also trustees or directors of the
following publicly offered Oppenheimer funds (referred to as "Board I Funds"):

Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund Oppenheimer International Growth Fund
Oppenheimer International Small Company
Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund Fund
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund Oppenheimer Multiple Strategies Fund
Oppenheimer Discovery Fund Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income Trust
Oppenheimer Emerging Growth Fund Oppenheimer Multi-State Municipal Trust
Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund Oppenheimer Municipal Bond Fund
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund Oppenheimer New York Municipal Fund
Oppenheimer Europe Fund Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Global Fund Oppenheimer Trinity Core Fund
Oppenheimer Global Growth & Income Fund Oppenheimer Trinity Large Cap Growth Fund
Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals
Fund Oppenheimer Trinity Value Fund
Oppenheimer Growth Fund Oppenheimer U.S. Government Trust

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

Messrs. Murphy, Bartlett, Leavy, Manioudakis, Molleur, Wixted and Zack
and Mses. Bechtolt, Feld and Ives respectively hold the same offices with one
or more of the other Board I Funds as with the Fund. As of November 27, 2002,
the Directors and officers of the Fund as a group owned of record or
beneficially less than 1% of each class of shares of the Fund. The foregoing
statement does not reflect ownership of shares of the Fund held of record by
an employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares
beneficially owned under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above.
In addition, each Independent Director, and his family members, do not own
securities of either the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or any
person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common
control with the Manager or Distributor.

|X| Affiliated Transactions and Material Business Relationships. Mr.
Reynolds has reported he has a controlling interest in The Directorship
Search Group, Inc. ("The Directorship Search Group"), a director recruiting
firm that provided consulting services to Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance
Company (which controls the Manager) for fees aggregating $110,000 from
January 1, 2000 through December 31, 2001, an amount representing less than
5% of the annual revenues of The Directorship Search Group, Inc. Mr. Reynolds
estimates that The Directorship Search Group will bill Massachusetts Mutual
Life Insurance Company $150,000 for services to be provided during the
calendar year 2002.

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

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

1. Aggregate compensation from the Fund includes fees and deferred
compensation, if any.

2. Estimated annual retirement benefits paid at retirement is based on a
straight life payment plan election. The amount for Mr. Galli includes
$24,989 for serving as a trustee or director of 10 Oppenheimer funds that
are not Board I Funds.

3. Includes $97,126 for Mr. Galli for serving as trustee or director of 10
Oppenheimer funds that are not Board I Funds.

4. Aggregate compensation from the Fund includes $233 deferred under
Deferred Compensation Plan described below.

5. Appointed to the Board on October 10, 2002 and therefore did not
receive any compensation.

6. Aggregate compensation from the Fund includes $76 deferred under
Deferred Compensation Plan described below.

|X| Retirement Plan for Directors. The Fund and its parent corporation have
adopted a retirement plan that provides for payments to retired Directors.
Payments are up to 80% of the average compensation paid during a Director's
five years of service in which the highest compensation was received. A
Director must serve as director or trustee for any of the Board I Funds for
at least 15 years to be eligible for the maximum payment. Each Director's
retirement benefits will depend on the amount of the Director's future
compensation and length of service.

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

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

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

The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission 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:

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 investment advisory agreement requires the Manager, at its expense,
to provide the Fund with adequate office space, facilities and equipment. It
also requires the Manager to provide and supervise the activities of all
administrative and clerical personnel required to provide effective
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 Directors, 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 are listed below.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fiscal Year ended 10/31: Management Fees Paid to OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000 $1,230,427
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2001 $927,181
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2002 $757,734

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

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 resulting from a
good faith error or omission on its part with respect to any of its duties
under the agreement.

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's parent corporation to use the name "Oppenheimer" as part of its name
and the name of the Fund.

o Accounting and Record-Keeping Services. The Manager provides accounting
and record-keeping services to the Fund pursuant to an Accounting and
Administration Agreement approved by the Board of Directors. Under that
agreement, the Manager maintains the general ledger accounts and records
relating to the Fund's business and calculates the daily net asset values of
the Fund's shares.

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

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

The Board reviewed the foregoing information in arriving at its
decision to renew the investment advisory agreement. Among other factors,
the Board considered:
o The nature, cost, and quality of the services provided to the Fund and
its shareholders;
o The profitability of the Fund to the Manager;
o The investment performance of the Fund in comparison to regular market

indices;

o Economies of scale that may be available to the Fund from the Manager;
o Fees paid by other mutual funds for similar services;
o The value and quality of any other benefits or services received by the

Fund from its relationship with the Manager; and
o The direct and indirect benefits the Manager received from its

relationship with the Fund. These included services provided by the
Distributor and the Transfer Agent, and brokerage and soft dollar
arrangements permissible under Section 28(e) of the Securities
Exchange Act.

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

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

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

Brokerage Provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreement. One of the duties
of the Manager under the investment advisory agreement is to 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. The Manager may employ broker-dealers
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. 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 Directors.

Under the investment advisory agreement, the Manager may select brokers
(other than affiliates) that provide brokerage and/or research services for
the Fund and/or the other accounts over which the Manager or its affiliates
have investment discretion. The commissions paid to such brokers may be
higher than another qualified broker would charge, if the Manager makes a
good faith determination that the commission is fair and reasonable in
relation to the services provided. Subject to those considerations, as a
factor in selecting brokers for the Fund's portfolio transactions, the
Manager may also consider sales of shares of the Fund and other investment
companies for which the Manager or an affiliate serves as investment advisor.

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

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 available in U.S. markets. Brokerage commissions are paid
primarily for transactions in listed securities or for certain fixed-income
agency transactions 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 funds advised by the Manager have investment policies similar to
those of the Fund. Those other funds may purchase or sell the same securities
as the Fund at the same time as the Fund, which could affect the supply and
price of the securities. If two or more funds 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.

Most purchases of debt obligations are principal transactions at net
prices. Instead of using a broker for those transactions, the Fund normally
deals directly with the selling or purchasing principal or market maker
unless the Manager determines that a better price or execution can be
obtained by using the services of a broker. Purchases of portfolio securities
from underwriters include a commission or concession paid by the issuer to
the underwriter. Purchases from dealers include a spread between the bid and
asked prices. The Fund seeks to obtain prompt execution of these orders at
the most favorable net price.

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

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

The Board of Directors permits the Manager to use stated commissions on
secondary fixed-income agency trades to obtain research if the broker
represents to the Manager that: (i) the trade is not from or for the broker's
own inventory, (ii) the trade was executed by the broker on an agency basis
at the stated commission, and (iii) the trade is not a riskless principal
transaction. The Board of Directors permits 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 broadens the scope and
supplements 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.

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 during the Fund's three most recent
fiscal years, and the contingent deferred sales charges retained by the
Distributor on the redemption of shares for the most recent fiscal year are

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 Directors,
including a majority of the Independent Directors3, cast in person at a
meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan.

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 Directors and its
Independent Directors 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 Directors 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 Directors and the Independent Directors 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 after six years, 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" (as defined in
the Investment Company Act) 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 Directors 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 Directors.

Each plan states that while it is in effect, the selection and
nomination of those Directors of the Fund's parent corporation who are not
"interested persons" of the corporation (or the Fund) is committed to the
discretion of the Independent Directors. 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 Directors.

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

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

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 sold under this arrangement. After the first
year shares are outstanding, the Distributor makes service fee payments to
Recipients quarterly on those shares. The advance payment is based on the
net asset value of shares sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify
for the advance service fee payment. If Class 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 October 31, 2002 payments under the Class A
plan totaled $258,615, of which $17 was retained by the Distributor under the
arrangement described above, and included $129,116 paid to an affiliate of
the Distributor's parent company. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor
incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered
in subsequent years. The Distributor may not use payments received under the
Class A plan to pay any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other
financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

|X| Class B, Class C and Class N Service and Distribution Plan Fees.
Under each plan, service fees and distribution fees are computed on the
average of the net asset value of shares in the respective class, determined
as of the close of each regular business day during the period. 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
quarterly basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after Class B, Class C and Class N shares are purchased. After
the first year Class B, Class C or Class N shares are outstanding, the
Distributor makes service fee payments quarterly on those shares. The
advance payment is based on the net asset value of shares sold. Shares
purchased by exchange do not qualify for the advance service fee payment. If
Class B, 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. In cases where the Distributor is
the broker of record for Class B, Class C and Class N shares, i.e.
shareholders without the services of a broker directly invest in the Fund,
the Distributor will retain the asset-based sales charge and service fee for
Class B, Class C and Class N shares.

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
increases Class N expenses by 0.50% of the net assets per year of the
respective class.

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 and/or
Class N service fee and the asset-based sales charge to the dealer quarterly
in lieu of paying the sales concessions and service fee in advance at the
time of purchase.

The asset-based sales charges 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 charges 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, and

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,

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 Fund under
the plans. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by
the Fund, the Board of Directors may allow the Fund to continue payments of
the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor for distributing shares
before the plan was terminated.

service fees.

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 1.800.225.5567 or by visiting the OppenheimerFunds Internet website at
www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

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

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

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

|X| Total Return Information. There are different types of "total
returns" to measure the Fund's performance. Total return is the change in
value of a hypothetical investment in the Fund over a given period, assuming
that all dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested in
additional shares and that the investment is redeemed at the end of the
period. Because of differences in expenses for each class of shares, the
total returns for each class are separately measured. The cumulative total
return measures the change in value over the entire period (for example, 10
years). An average annual total return shows the average rate of return for
each year in a period that would produce the cumulative total return over the
entire period. However, average annual total returns do not show actual
year-by-year performance. The Fund uses standardized calculations for its
total returns as prescribed by the SEC. The methodology is discussed below.

In calculating total returns for Class A shares, the current maximum
sales charge of 5.75% (as a percentage of the offering price) is deducted
from the initial investment ("P") (unless the return is shown without sales
charge, as described below). For Class B shares, payment of the applicable
contingent deferred sales charge is applied, depending on the period for
which the return is shown: 5.0% in the first year, 4.0% in the second year,
3.0% in the third and fourth years, 2.0% in the fifth year, 1.0% in the sixth
year and none thereafter. For Class C shares, the 1.0% contingent deferred
sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year period. For Class N
shares, the 1% contingent deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for
the one year period. Class N total returns may also be calculated for the
periods prior to 3/1/01 (the inception date for Class N shares), based on the
Fund's Class A returns, adjusted to reflect the higher Class N 12b-1 fees.
o Average Annual Total Return. The "average annual total return" of each
class is an average annual compounded rate of return for each year in a
specified number of years. It is the rate of return based on the change in
value of a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000 ("P" in the formula
below) held for a number of years ("n" in the formula) to achieve an Ending
Redeemable Value ("ERV" in the formula) of that investment, according to the
following formula:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

o Total Returns at Net Asset Value. From time to time the Fund may also
quote a cumulative or an average annual total return "at net asset value"
(without deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N
shares. Each is based on the difference in net asset value per share at the
beginning and the end of the period for a hypothetical investment in that
class of shares (without considering front-end or contingent deferred sales
charges) and takes into consideration the reinvestment of dividends and
capital gains distributions.

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

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

Morningstar 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.

the earnings of companies included in segments of particular
industries, sectors, securities markets, countries or regions,
o the availability of different types of securities or offerings of
securities,
o information relating to the gross national or gross domestic product of
the United States or other countries or regions,
o comparisons of various market sectors or indices to demonstrate
performance, risk, or other characteristics of the Fund.

ABOUT your account

How to Buy Shares

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

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

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

Class A and Class B shares of Oppenheimer funds you previously
purchased subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales
charge to reduce the sales charge rate for current purchases of
Class A shares, provided that you still hold your investment in
one of the Oppenheimer funds.

A fiduciary can count all shares purchased for a trust, estate or other
fiduciary account (including one or more employee benefit plans of the same
employer) that has multiple accounts. The Distributor will add the value, at
current offering price, of the shares you previously purchased and currently
own to the value of current purchases to determine the sales charge rate that
applies. The reduced sales charge will apply only to current purchases. You
must request it when you buy shares.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 of Intent. If the intended purchase amount under
a Letter of Intent entered into by an OppenheimerFunds prototype 401(k) plan
is not purchased by the plan by the end of the Letter of Intent 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 of
Intent period will be deducted. It is the responsibility of the dealer of
record and/or the investor to advise the Distributor about the Letter in
placing any purchase orders for the investor during the Letter of Intent
period. All of such purchases must be made through the Distributor.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

If you make payments from your bank account to purchase shares of the
Fund, your bank account will be debited automatically. Normally the debit
will be made two business days prior to the investment dates you selected on
your application. Neither the Distributor, the Transfer Agent 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 charge or at reduced sales charge rates, as
described in Appendix C 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 $3 million in assets (other than
assets invested in money market funds) invested in applicable investments,
then the retirement plan may purchase only Class B shares of the Oppenheimer
funds. Any retirement plans in that category that currently invest in Class B
shares of the Fund will have their Class B shares converted to Class A shares
of the Fund when the plan's applicable investments reach $5 million.
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 any order in the amount of $500,000 or
more for Class B shares or $1 million or more for Class C shares on behalf of
a single investor (not including dealer "street name" or omnibus accounts).
That is because generally it will be more advantageous for that investor to
purchase Class A shares of the Fund.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Account Fees. As stated in the Prospectus, a $12 annual fee is assessed on
any account valued at less than $500. This fee will not be assessed on the
following accounts:

o Accounts that have balances below $500 due to the automatic conversion
of shares from Class B to Class A shares;
o Accounts with an active Asset Builder Plan, payroll deduction plan or a
military allotment plan;
o OppenheimerFunds-sponsored group retirement accounts that are making
continuing purchases;
o Certain accounts held by broker-dealers through the National Securities
Clearing Corporation; and
o Accounts that fall below the $500 threshold due solely to market
fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the fee is
deducted.

The fee is automatically deducted from qualifying accounts annually on
or about the second to last business day of September. This annual fee is
waived for any shareholders who elect to access their account documents
through electronic document delivery rather than in paper copy and who elect
to utilize the Internet or PhoneLink as their primary source for their
general servicing needs. To sign up 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.
------------------------
Determination of Net Asset Values Per Share. The net asset values per share
of each class of shares of the Fund are determined as of the close of
business of the Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open. The
calculation is done by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets
attributable to a class by the number of shares of that class that are
outstanding. The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M., Eastern time, but
may close earlier on some other days (for example, in case of weather
emergencies or on days falling before a U.S. holiday). All references to
time in this Statement of Additional Information mean "Eastern time." The
Exchange's most recent annual announcement (which is subject to change)
states that it will close on New Year's Day, Presidents' Day, Martin Luther
King, Jr. Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. It may also close on other days.

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

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

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

How to Sell Shares

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

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 and Class N 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 Directors 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 Directors has the right to cause
the involuntary redemption of the shares held in any account if the account
holds fewer than 100 shares. 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 Exchange on a regular business day, it will be processed at that
day's net asset value if the order was received by the dealer or broker from
its customers prior to the time the Exchange closes. Normally, the Exchange
closes at 4:00 P.M., but may do so earlier on some days. Additionally, the
order must have been transmitted to and received by the Distributor prior to
its close of business that day (normally 5:00 P.M.).

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

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

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

The Fund cannot guarantee receipt of a payment on the date requested.
The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering these
plans at any time without prior notice. Because of the sales charge assessed
on Class A share purchases, shareholders should not make regular additional
Class A share purchases while participating in an Automatic Withdrawal Plan.
Class B, 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 C to this Statement of Additional Information).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

To use shares held under the Plan as collateral for a debt, the
Planholder may request issuance of a portion of the shares in certificated
form. Upon written request from the Planholder, the Transfer Agent will
determine the number of shares for which a certificate may be issued without
causing the withdrawal checks to stop. However, should such uncertificated
shares become exhausted, Plan withdrawals will terminate.

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

How to Exchange Shares

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

The following funds only offer Class A shares:
Centennial America Fund, L.P. Centennial New York Tax Exempt
Trust
Centennial California Tax Exempt Trust Centennial Tax Exempt Trust
Centennial Government Trust Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Centennial Money Market Trust

The following funds do not offer Class N shares:
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund Oppenheimer Pennsylvania Municipal
Fund
Oppenheimer Limited Term Municipal Fund Oppenheimer Rochester National
Municipals
Oppenheimer Municipal Bond Fund Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate
Fund
Oppenheimer New Jersey Municipal Fund Limited Term New York Municipal
Fund
Oppenheimer New York Municipal Fund Rochester Fund Municipals

The following funds do not offer Class Y shares:
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund Oppenheimer Limited Term Municipal

Company Fund Fund

o Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund may not be exchanged for
shares of any other fund.
o Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are
generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of
other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k)
plans.
o Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be
exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may
not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market
Fund or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M
shares.
o Class X shares of Limited Term New York Municipal Fund may be exchanged
only for Class B shares of other Oppenheimer funds and no exchanges may
be made to Class X shares.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund may not be exchanged
for shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash
Reserves or Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund. Only
participants in certain retirement plans may purchase shares of
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund, and only those participants may
exchange shares of other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer
Capital Preservation Fund.
o Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund are not
available by exchange of shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or
Class A shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Select Managers Mercury Advisors S&P Index Fund
and Oppenheimer Select Managers QM Active Balanced Fund are only
available to retirement plans and are available only by exchange from
the same class of shares of other Oppenheimer funds held by retirement
plans.
o Class A shares of Oppenheimer funds may be exchanged at net asset value
for shares of any money market fund offered by the Distributor. Shares
of any money market fund purchased without a sales charge may be
exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge
upon payment of the sales charge. They may also be used to purchase
shares of Oppenheimer funds subject to an early withdrawal charge or
contingent deferred sales charge.
o Shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. purchased with the
redemption proceeds of shares of other mutual funds (other than funds
managed by the Manager or its subsidiaries) redeemed within the 30 days
prior to that purchase may subsequently be exchanged for shares of
other Oppenheimer funds without being subject to an initial sales
charge or contingent deferred sales charge. To qualify for that
privilege, the investor or the investor's dealer must notify the
Distributor of eligibility for this privilege at the time the shares of
Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. are purchased. If requested, they
must supply proof of entitlement to this privilege.
o Shares of the Fund acquired by reinvestment of dividends or
distributions from any of the other Oppenheimer funds or from any unit
investment trust for which reinvestment arrangements have been made
with the Distributor may be exchanged at net asset value for shares of
any of the Oppenheimer funds.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends and Distributions. 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
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.

|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 Directors 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.

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 30% (29% for
payments after December 31, 2003) 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). All income and any tax withheld by the
Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S. Treasury and is identified in
reports mailed to shareholders in January of each year.

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

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

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

Ordinary income dividends that are paid by the Fund (and are deemed not
"effectively connected income") to foreign persons will be subject to a U.S.
tax withheld by the Fund at a rate of 30%, provided the Fund obtains a
properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status. The tax rate may
be reduced if the foreign person's country of residence has a tax treaty with
the U.S. allowing for a reduced tax rate on ordinary income dividends paid by
the Fund. All income and any tax withheld by the Fund is remitted by the Fund
to the U.S. Treasury and is identified in reports mailed to shareholders in
March of each year.
If the ordinary income dividends from the Fund are effectively
---
connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, then the foreign
person may claim an exemption from the U.S. tax described above provided the
Fund obtains a properly completed and signed Certificate of Foreign Status.
If the foreign person fails to provide a certification of his/her
foreign status, the Fund will be required to withhold U.S. tax at a rate of
30% (29% for payments after December 31, 2003) on ordinary income dividends,
capital gains distributions and the proceeds of the redemption of shares,
paid to any foreign person. All income and any tax withheld (in this
situation) by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S. Treasury and is
identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each year.

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

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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

Independent Auditors. KPMG LLP are the independent auditors of the Fund. They
audit the Fund's financial statements and perform other related audit
services. They also act as auditors for certain other funds advised by the
Manager and its affiliates.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

================================================================================
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund, including the statement of investments,
as of October 31, 2002, and the related statement of operations for the year
then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in
the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years
in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of October 31, 2002, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from
brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund as of October 31, 2002, the results of
its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each
of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each
of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Footnotes to Statement of Investments

1. Non-income producing security.
2. Identifies issues considered to be illiquid or restricted--See Note 7 of
Notes to Financial Statements.
3. A sufficient amount of liquid assets has been designated to cover outstanding
written options, as follows:

Contracts Expiration Exercise Premium Market Value
Subject to Call Date Price Received See Note 1
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

JDS Uniphase Corp. 2 3/24/03 $2.50 $106 $100

4. Represents securities sold under Rule 144A, which are exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities have
been determined to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of
Directors. These securities amount to $3,480,774 or 3.22% of the Fund's net
assets as of October 31, 2002.
5. Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate
security.
6. When-issued security to be delivered and settled after October 31, 2002.
7. Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest
payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically
decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities
increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the
underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is
calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to changes
in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example,
GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based
upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash
flows.
8. Securities with an aggregate market value of $1,622,757 are held in
collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures
sales contracts. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund (the Fund), a series of Oppenheimer
Series Fund, Inc. (the Company), 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 to maximize total investment return (including
capital appreciation and income) principally by allocating its assets among
stocks, corporate bonds, U.S. government securities and money market
instruments, according to changing market conditions. The Fund's investment
advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N 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. All classes of
shares have identical rights and voting privileges. Earnings, net assets and net
asset value per share may differ by minor amounts due to each class having its
own expenses directly attributable to that class. Classes A, B, C and N have
separate distribution and/or service plans. Class B shares will automatically
convert to Class A shares six years after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges or
other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price of
the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's assets
are valued. 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 (including
restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available are valued
primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Directors, or at their fair value. Fair value is
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
supervision of the Board of Directors. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis. Delivery and payment for securities
that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis can take place a
month or more after the trade date. Normally the settlement date occurs within
six months after the trade date; however, the Fund may, from time to time,
purchase securities whose settlement date extends six months or more beyond
trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are
subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to
their delivery. The Fund maintains segregated assets with a market value equal
to or greater than the amount of its commitments. These transactions of
securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of the Fund's net
asset value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
substantially fully invested. As of October 31, 2002, the Fund had entered into
when-issued purchase commitments of $14,516,186.
In connection with its ability to purchase securities on a when-issued basis,
the Fund may enter into forward roll transactions with respect to
mortgage-related securities. Forward roll transactions require the sale of
securities for delivery in the current month, and a simultaneous agreement with
the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity) but
not identical securities on a specified future date. The forward roll may not
extend for a period of greater than one year. The Fund generally records the
incremental difference between the forward purchase and sell of each forward
roll as interest income.
Risks to the Fund of entering into forward roll transactions include the
potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the
potential of the Fund to receive inferior securities to what was sold to the
counterparty at redelivery; counterparty credit risk; and the potential pay down
speed variance between the mortgage-related pools.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the valuation
date. Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and
investment income are translated at the prevailing exchange rates on the
respective dates of such transactions.
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. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds of 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 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; however,
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 daily to
each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Directors' Compensation. The Fund has adopted a nonfunded retirement plan for
the Fund's independent directors. Benefits are based on years of service and
fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended
October 31, 2002, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by
$3,093 and payments of $4,585 were made to retired directors, resulting in an
accumulated liability of $30,424 as of October 31, 2002.
The Board of Directors has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
independent directors that enables directors to elect to defer receipt of all or
a portion of annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund.
Under the plan, the compensation deferred is invested for the Board of Directors
in shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds selected by the director. The amount
paid to the Board of Directors under the plan will be determined based upon the
performance of the selected funds. Deferral of directors' 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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its 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.
During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2002, the Fund did not utilize any
capital loss carryforward.

As of October 31, 2002, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes
unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:

===========
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of the recognition of certain foreign
currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss) for 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.

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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.
Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued

================================================================================
3. Purchases and Sales of Securities Continued
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts, investments
in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign currency exchange
contracts.
================================================================================
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager are in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee of 0.625%
of the first $300 million of average annual net assets of the Fund, 0.50% of the
next $100 million, and 0.45% of average annual net assets in excess of $400
million.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Fees. The Manager acts as the accounting agent for the Fund at an
annual fee of $15,000, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably
incurred.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 $19.75 per account fee.
OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees for all classes, up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets per
class. This undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor's
Agreement with the Manager, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
the different classes of shares of the Fund.

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. For the year ended October 31, 2002, payments under
the Class A Plan totaled $258,615, all of which were paid by the Distributor to
recipients, and included $129,116 paid to an affiliate of the Manager. Any
unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in
any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based
sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B shares and on Class C shares and the
Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.25% per year
on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year
under each plan.

================================================================================
5. Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a particular price on a stipulated future
date at a negotiated price. Futures contracts are traded on a commodity
exchange. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts that relate to broadly
based securities indices "financial futures" or debt securities "interest rate
futures" in order to gain exposure to or to seek to protect against changes in
market value of stock and bonds or interest rates. The Fund may also buy or
write put or call options on these futures contracts.
The Fund generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases in
interest rates and decreases in market value of portfolio securities. The Fund
may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to market changes as it may
be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying fixed income
securities.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either
cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage
of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or
received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the
daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and
losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed
or expires.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued

================================================================================
5. Futures Contracts Continued
Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements
on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments. The
Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable and/or payable for the
daily mark to market for variation margin. Realized gains and losses are
reported in the Statement of Operations as closing and expiration of futures
contracts.
Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying securities.

As of October 31, 2002, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as follows:

================================================================================
6. Option Activity
The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and covered call
options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or
protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities.
The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options to
hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. When an
option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell or
purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option.
Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the
expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised,
the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written
put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is
adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid.
Securities designated to cover outstanding call options are noted in the
Statement of Investments where applicable. Shares subject to call, expiration
date, exercise price, premium received and market value are detailed in a note
to the Statement of Investments. Options written are reported as a liability in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses are reported
in the Statement of Operations.

36 | OPPENHEIMER DISCIPLINED ALLOCATION FUND
The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity
for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is
exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur a loss if
the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk
in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is
exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into
a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.

Written option activity for the year ended October 31, 2002 was as follows:

================================================================================
7. Illiquid or Restricted Securities
As of October 31, 2002, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid or restricted. Restricted securities are often purchased in private
placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may
have contractual restrictions on resale, and are valued under methods approved
by the Board of Directors as reflecting fair value. A security may also be
considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation
has not changed for a certain period of time. The Fund intends to invest no more
than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed
periodically) in illiquid or restricted securities. Certain restricted
securities, eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, are not
subject to that limitation. The aggregate value of illiquid or restricted
securities subject to this limitation as of October 31, 2002 was $4,102,400,
which represents 3.79% of the Fund's net assets, of which zero is considered
restricted. Information concerning restricted securities is as follows:

8. Bank Borrowings
Effective November 13, 2001, the Fund no longer participated in an agreement
with other Oppenheimer funds in an unsecured line of credit with a bank. The
Fund may borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes, provided asset
coverage for borrowings exceeds 300%.
The Fund had no borrowings outstanding during the year ended October 31,
2002.

RATINGS DEFINITIONS
-------------------

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

Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Long-Term (Taxable) Bond Ratings

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

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

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

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

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

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

Caa: Bonds rated "Caa" are of poor standing. Such issues may be in default or
there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or
interest.

Ca: Bonds rated "Ca" represent obligations which are speculative in a high
degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.

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

Con. (...): Bonds for which the security depends on the completion of some act
or the fulfillment of some condition are rated conditionally. These bonds are
secured by (a) earnings of projects under construction, (b) earnings of
projects unseasoned in operating experience, (c) rentals that begin when
facilities are completed, or (d) payments to which some other limiting
condition attaches. The parenthetical rating denotes probable credit stature
upon completion of construction or elimination of the basis of the condition.

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

Short-Term Ratings - Taxable Debt

These ratings apply to the ability of issuers to honor senior debt
obligations having an original maturity not exceeding one year:

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

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

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

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

Standard & Poor's Rating Services
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Long-Term Credit Ratings

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

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

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

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

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

Bonds rated "BB", "B", "CCC", "CC" and "C" are regarded as having significant
speculative characteristics. "BB" indicates the least degree of speculation,
and "C" the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and
protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or
major exposures to adverse conditions.
BB: Bonds rated "BB" are less vulnerable to nonpayment than other
speculative issues. However, these face major ongoing uncertainties or
exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions which could
lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation.

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

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

CC: Bonds rated "CC" are currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment.

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

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

The ratings from "AA" to "CCC" may be modified by the addition of a plus (+)
or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating
categories. The "r" symbol is attached to the ratings of instruments with
significant noncredit risks.

Short-Term Issue Credit Ratings

A-1: Obligation is rated in the highest category. The obligor's capacity to
meet its financial commitment on the obligation is strong. Within this
category, a plus (+) sign designation indicates the obligor's capacity to
meet its financial obligation is extremely strong.

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

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

B: Obligation is regarded as having significant speculative characteristics.
The obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties which could
lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on
the obligation.

C: Obligation is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is dependent upon
favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to
meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

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

International Long-Term Credit Ratings

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

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

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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

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

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

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

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

International Short-Term Credit Ratings

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

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

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

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

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

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.

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

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class
A shares1 of the Oppenheimer funds or the contingent deferred sales charge
that may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.2 That is
because of the economies of sales efforts realized by OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., (referred to in this document as the "Distributor"), or by
dealers or other financial institutions that offer those shares to certain
classes of investors.

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

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds,
the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
1) plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code,
2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
3) employee benefit plans3
4) Group Retirement Plans4
5) 403(b)(7) custodial plan accounts
6) Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), including traditional
IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs or SIMPLE plans

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

Waivers that apply at the time shares are redeemed must be requested by the
shareholder and/or dealer in the redemption request.
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."5 This waiver provision applies to:
|_| Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
|_| Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
(other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
purchases of $200,000 or more.
|_| Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the
purchases are made:
1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser
that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those
purchases, or
2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified
Retirement Plan if the administrator of that Plan has made
special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
|_| Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
following record-keeping arrangements:
1) The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner &
Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the
Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
must have $3 million or more of its assets invested in (a) mutual
funds, other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch
Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available
under a Service Agreement between Merrill Lynch and the mutual
fund's principal underwriter or distributor, and (b) funds
advised or managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b)
are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a
daily valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are
provided under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement
Plan and Merrill Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
record keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
must have $3 million or more of its 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).

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

Oppenheimer Value Fund and
Oppenheimer Disciplined Allocation Fund
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 Liquid Account Connecticut Mutual Total Return
Account
Connecticut Mutual Government Securities Account CMIA LifeSpan Capital
Appreciation Account
Connecticut Mutual Income Account CMIA LifeSpan Balanced Account
Connecticut Mutual Growth Account CMIA Diversified Income 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

under Section 457 of the Code, or other employee benefit plans;
4) as tax-free returns of excess contributions to such retirement or
employee benefit plans;
5) in whole or in part, in connection with shares sold to any state,
county, or city, or any instrumentality, department, authority, or
agency thereof, that is prohibited by applicable investment laws from
paying a sales charge or concession in connection with the purchase of
shares of any registered investment management company;
6) in connection with the redemption of shares of the Fund due to a
combination with another investment company by virtue of a merger,
acquisition or similar reorganization transaction;
7) in connection with the Fund's right to involuntarily redeem or
liquidate the Fund;
8) in connection with automatic redemptions of Class A shares and Class B
shares in certain retirement plan accounts pursuant to an Automatic
Withdrawal Plan but limited to no more than 12% of the original value
annually; or

9) as involuntary redemptions of shares by operation of law, or under
procedures set forth in the Fund's Articles of Incorporation, or as
adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund.

VI. Special Reduced Sales Charge for Former Shareholders of Advance
America Funds, Inc.

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

1 Currently, under the 1940 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). In addition, the Fund may borrow from
affiliated funds as described above. A fund may borrow up to 5% of its total
assets for temporary purposes from any person. Under the 1940 Act, there is a
rebuttable presumption that a loan is temporary if it is repaid within 60
days and not extended or renewed.
2 Mr. Motley was elected as Trustee to the Board I Funds effective October
10, 2002.

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

ABOUT The FUnd

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

|X| Value Investing. In selecting equity investments for the Fund's
portfolio, the portfolio manager currently uses a value investing style
coupled with fundamental analysis of issuers. In using a value approach, the
manager looks for stocks and other equity securities that appear to be
temporarily undervalued, by various measures, such as price/earnings ratios.
Value investing seeks stocks having prices that are low in relation to their
real worth or future prospects, with the expectation that the Fund will
realize appreciation in the value of its holdings when other investors
realize the intrinsic value of the stock.

Using value investing requires research as to the issuer's underlying
financial condition and prospects. Some of the measures used to identify
these securities include, among others:

o Price/book value ratio, which is the stock price divided by the book
value of the company per share. It measures the company's stock price in
relation to its asset value.

|X| Investments in Equity Securities. The Fund does not limit its
investments in equity securities to issuers having a market capitalization of
a specified size or range, and therefore may invest in securities of small-,
mid- and large-capitalization issuers. At times, the Fund may have
substantial amounts of its assets invested in securities of issuers in one or
more capitalization ranges, based upon the Manager's use of its investment
strategies and its judgment of where the best market opportunities are to
seek the Fund's objective.

|X| Rights and Warrants. The Fund can invest up to 5% of its total
assets in warrants or rights. That limit does not apply to warrants and
rights that the Fund has acquired as part of units of securities or that are
attached to other securities that the Fund buys. No more than 2% of the
Fund's total assets may be invested in warrants that are not listed on either
The New York Stock Exchange or The American Stock Exchange.

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| Convertible Securities. Convertible securities are debt
securities that are convertible into an issuer's common stock. Convertible
securities rank senior to common stock in a corporation's capital structure
and therefore are subject to less risk than common stock in case of the
issuer's bankruptcy or liquidation.

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

|X| Preferred Stocks. Preferred stocks are equity securities
but have certain attributes of debt securities. Preferred stock, unlike
common stock, has a stated dividend rate payable from the corporation's
earnings. Preferred stock dividends may be cumulative or non-cumulative,
participating, or auction rate. "Cumulative" dividend provisions require all
or a portion of prior unpaid dividends to be paid before the issuer can pay
dividends on common shares.
If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be
less attractive, causing the price of preferred stocks to decline. Preferred
stock may have mandatory sinking fund provisions, as well as provisions for
their call or redemption prior to maturity which can have a negative effect
on their prices when interest prior to maturity rates decline. Preferred
stock may be "participating" stock, which means that it may be entitled to a
dividend exceeding the stated dividend in certain cases.

|X| Foreign Securities. The Fund can purchase up to 25% of its total assets
in foreign securities. "Foreign securities" include equity and debt
securities of companies organized under the laws of countries other than the
United States and debt securities of foreign governments and their agencies
and instrumentalities. Those securities may be traded on foreign securities
exchanges or in the foreign over-the-counter markets.

Because the Fund can purchase securities denominated in foreign
currencies, a change in the value of a foreign currency against the U.S.
dollar could 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.

fluctuation in value of foreign investments due to changes in
currency rates 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 foreign exchange contracts;
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;
possibilities in some countries of expropriation,
nationalization, confiscatory taxation, political,
financial or social instability or adverse diplomatic
developments; and
o unfavorable differences between the U.S. economy and foreign economies.

|X| Investments in Bonds and Other Debt Securities. The Fund can
invest in bonds, debentures and other debt securities under normal market
conditions. Because the Fund currently emphasizes investments in equity
securities, such as stocks, it is not anticipated that significant amounts of
the Fund's assets will be invested in debt securities. However, if market
conditions suggest that debt securities may offer better growth opportunities
than stocks, or if the Manager determines to seek a higher income for
liquidity purposes, the Manager may shift up to 10% of the Fund's net assets
into debt securities.

The Fund's debt investments can include investment-grade and
non-investment-grade bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").
Investment-grade bonds are bonds rated at least "Baa" by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc., ("Moody's") or at least "BBB" by Standard & Poor's Rating
Services ("S&P") or Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch") or that have comparable ratings by
another nationally recognized rating organization. In making investments in
debt securities, the Manager may rely to some extent on the ratings of
ratings organizations or it may use its own research to evaluate a security's
credit-worthiness. If the securities that the Fund buys are unrated, to be
considered part of the Fund's holdings of investment-grade securities, they
must be judged by the Manager to be of comparable quality to bonds rated as
investment grade by a rating organization.

Special Risks of Lower-Grade Securities. It is not anticipated
that the Fund will invest a substantial portion of its assets in lower-grade
debt securities. Because lower-grade securities tend to offer higher yields
than investment-grade securities, the Fund may invest in lower grade
securities if the Manager is trying to achieve greater income (and, in some
cases, the appreciation possibilities of lower-grade securities might be a
reason they are selected for the Fund's portfolio). High-yield convertible
debt securities might be selected as "equity substitutes," as described above
but are subject to the Fund's limitation on its investment in debt securities
as stated in the Prospectus.

As mentioned above, "lower-grade" debt securities are those rated below
"investment grade," which means they have a rating lower than "Baa" by
Moody's or lower than "BBB" by S&P or Fitch or similar ratings by other
nationally recognized rating organizations. If they are unrated, and are
determined by the Manager to be of comparable quality to debt securities
rated below investment grade, they are included in the limitation on the
percentage of the Fund's assets that can be invested in lower-grade
securities. The Fund can invest in securities rated as low as "B" at the time
the Fund buys them.

|X| Floating Rate and Variable Rate Obligations. Some securities the
Fund can purchase have variable or floating interest rates. Variable rates
are adjusted at stated periodic intervals. Variable rate obligations can
have a demand feature that allows the Fund to tender the obligation to the
issuer or a third party prior to its maturity. The tender may be at par value
plus accrued interest, according to the terms of the obligations.

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

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

o U.S. Treasury Obligations. These include Treasury bills (maturities of
one year or less when issued), Treasury notes (maturities of one to 10
years), and Treasury bonds (maturities of more than 10 years). Treasury
securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States as to
timely payments of interest and repayments of principal. They also can
include U. S. Treasury securities that have been "stripped" by a Federal
Reserve Bank, zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities described below, and
Treasury Inflation-Protection Securities ("TIPS").

o Obligations Issued or Guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies or
Instrumentalities. These include direct obligations and mortgage-related
securities that have different levels of credit support from the government.
Some are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, such
as Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") pass-through mortgage
certificates (called "Ginnie Maes"). Some are supported by the right of the
issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury under certain circumstances, such as
Federal National Mortgage Association bonds ("Fannie Maes"). Others are
supported only by the credit of the entity that issued them, such as Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation obligations ("Freddie Macs").
|X| U.S. Government Mortgage-Related Securities. The Fund can invest in a
variety of mortgage-related securities that are issued by U.S. government
agencies or instrumentalities, some of which are described below.

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

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

Monthly payments of principal will be made, and additional prepayments
of principal may be made, to the Fund with respect to the mortgages
underlying the Ginnie Maes owned by the Fund. All of the mortgages in the
pools relating to the Ginnie Maes in the Fund are subject to prepayment
without any significant premium or penalty, at the option of the mortgagors.
While the mortgages on one-to-four family dwellings underlying certain Ginnie
Maes have a stated maturity of up to 30 years, it has been the experience of
the mortgage industry that the average life of comparable mortgages, as a
result of prepayments, refinancing and payments from foreclosures, is
considerably less.
o Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") Certificates.
FHLMC, a corporate instrumentality of the United States, issues FHLMC
Certificates representing interests in mortgage loans. FHLMC guarantees to
each registered holder of a FHLMC Certificate timely payment of the amounts
representing a holder's proportionate share in:
(i) interest payments less servicing and guarantee fees,
(ii) principal prepayments, and
(iii) the ultimate collection of amounts representing the holder's
proportionate interest in principal payments on the
mortgage loans in the pool represented by the FHLMC
Certificate, in each case whether or not such amounts are
actually received.
The obligations of FHLMC under its guarantees are obligations solely of
FHLMC and are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.

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

o U.S. Government Securities. These include obligations issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities.

o Bank Obligations. The Fund can buy time deposits, certificates of
deposit and bankers' acceptances. They must be :
o obligations issued or guaranteed by a domestic or foreign bank
(including a foreign branch of a domestic bank) having
total assets of at least $1 billion,
o banker's acceptances (which may or may not be supported by letters of
credit) only if guaranteed by a U.S. commercial bank with
total assets of at least U.S. $1 billion.

Commercial Paper. The Fund can invest in commercial paper if it
is rated within the top two rating categories of S&P and Moody's. If the
paper is not rated, it may be purchased if issued by a company having a
credit rating of at least "AA" by S&P or "Aa" by Moody's.
The Fund can buy commercial paper, including U.S. dollar-denominated
securities of foreign branches of U.S. banks, issued by other entities if the
commercial paper is guaranteed as to principal and interest by a bank,
government or corporation whose certificates of deposit or commercial paper
may otherwise be purchased by the Fund.

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

The Fund has no limitations on the type of issuer from whom these notes
will be purchased. However, in connection with such purchases and on an
ongoing basis, the Manager will consider the earning power, cash flow and
other liquidity ratios of the issuer, and its ability to pay principal and
interest on demand, including a situation in which all holders of such notes
made demand simultaneously. Investments in master demand notes are subject to
the limitation on investments by the Fund in illiquid securities, described
below. Currently, the Fund does not intend that its investments in variable
amount master demand notes will exceed 5% of its total assets.

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

Repurchase agreements, considered "loans" under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act"), are collateralized by the
underlying security. The Fund's repurchase agreements require that at all
times while the repurchase agreement is in effect, the value of the
collateral must equal or exceed the repurchase price to fully collateralize
the repayment obligation. However, if the vendor fails to pay the resale
price on the delivery date, the Fund may incur costs in disposing of the
collateral and may experience losses if there is any delay in its ability to
do so. The Manager will monitor the vendor's creditworthiness to confirm that
the vendor is financially sound and will continuously monitor the
collateral's value.

|X| Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Under the policies and
procedures established by the Fund's Board of Directors, 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
1933,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 Fundmonitors 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.

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

|X| Borrowing. From time to time, the Fund may borrow from banks or
affiliated investment companies. Such borrowing may be used to fund
shareholder redemptions or for other purposes. Currently, under the
Investment Company Act, absent exemptive relief, a mutual fund may borrow
only from banks and the maximum amount it may borrow is up to one-third of
its total assets (including the amount borrowed) less all liabilities and
indebtedness other than borrowing. The Fund may also borrow up to 5% of its
total assets for temporary purposes from any person. Under the Investment
Company Act, there is a rebuttable presumption borrowing.that a loan is
temporary if it is repaid within 60 days and not extended or renewed. In
addition, as discussed below, the Fund can borrow from affiliated mutual
funds. If the value of the Fund's assets so computed should fail to meet the
300% asset coverage requirement, the Fund is required within three days to
reduce its bank debt to the extent necessary to meet such requirement. To do
so, it might have to sell a portion of its investments at a time when
independent investment judgment would not dictate such sale.

Since substantially all of the Fund's assets fluctuate in value, but
borrowing obligations are fixed, when the Fund has outstanding borrowings, its
net asset value per share correspondingly will tend to increase and decrease
more when portfolio assets fluctuate in value than otherwise would be the
case. While borrowingsthe Fund borrow a greater amount, as discussed in the
immediately preceding paragraph, the Fund currently does not expect its
borrowings to exceed 5% of its total assets.

Interfund Borrowing and Lending Arrangements. Consistent with its
fundamental policies and pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Fund may engage in borrowing
and lending activities with other funds in the OppenheimerFunds complex.
Borrowing money from affiliated funds may afford the Fund the flexibility to
use the most cost-effective alternative to satisfy its borrowing
requirements. Lending money to an affiliated fund may allow the Fund to
obtain a higher rate of return than it could from interest rates on
alternative short-term investments. Implementation of inter-fund lending
wouldinterfund lending will be accomplished consistent with applicable
regulatory requirements, including the provisions of the SEC order.

Interfund Lending. To assure that the Fund will not be disadvantaged
by making loans to affiliated funds, certain safeguards will be implemented.
Examples of these safeguards include the following:

o the Fund will not lend money to affiliated funds unless the interest
rate on such loan is determined to be reasonable under the
circumstances;

o the Fund may not make interfund loans in excess of 15% of its net

When the Fund lends assets to another affiliated fund, the Fund is
subject to the risk that the borrowing fund fails to repay the loan.

|X| Hedging. The Fund can use hedging 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. To
do so, the Fund could:
o sell futures contracts,
o buy puts on futures or on securities, or
o write covered calls on securities or futures. Covered calls can also
be used to increase the Fund's income, but the Manager does not
expect to engage extensively in that practice.

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

o 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.

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.

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.

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

o Regulatory Aspects of Hedging Instruments. When using futures and
options on futures, the Fund is required to operate within certain guidelines
and restrictions with respect to the use of futures as established by the
Commodities Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"). In particular, the Fund
is exempted from registration with the CFTC as a "commodity pool operator" if
the Fund complies with the requirements of Rule 4.5 adopted by the CFTC. The
Rule does not limit the percentage of the Fund's assets that may be used for
futures margin and related options premiums for a bona fide hedging
position. However, under the Rule, the Fund must limit its aggregate initial
futures margin and related options premiums to not more than 5% of the Fund's
net assets for hedging strategies that are not considered bona fide hedging
strategies under the Rule. Under the Rule, the Fund must also use short
futures and options on futures solely for bona fide hedging purposes within
the meaning and intent of the applicable provisions of the Commodity Exchange
Act.
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 may be affected by options written or held by other entities, including
other investment companies having the same advisor as the Fund (or an advisor
that is an affiliate of the Fund's advisor). 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.

Other Investment Restrictions

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 Directors can change non-fundamental policies without shareholder
approval. However, significant changes to investment policies will be
described in supplements or updates to the Prospectus or this Statement of
Additional Information, as appropriate. The Fund's principal investment
policies are described in the Prospectus.

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

o The Fund cannot underwrite securities of other issuers. A permitted
exception is in case it is deemed to be an underwriter under the Securities
Act of 1933 in reselling its portfolio securities.

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History. The Fund is one of two investment portfolios, or
"series," of Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc. That corporation is an open-end,
management investment company organized as a Maryland corporation in 1981,
and was called Connecticut Mutual Investment Accounts, Inc. until March 18,
1996, when the Manager became the Fund's investment advisor. The Fund is a
diversified mutual fund. On March 18, 1996 the Fund changed its name from
Connecticut Mutual Growth Account to Oppenheimer Disciplined Value Fund and
effective March 1, 2001 subsequently changed its name to Oppenheimer Value
Fund.

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

The Fund currently has 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 elect to 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 may have a different net asset value,
o may have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one
class are different from interests of another class, and
o votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

The Fund will hold meetings when required to do so by the Investment
Company Act or other applicable law. The Fund will hold a meeting when the
Directors call a meeting or upon proper request of shareholders. If the
Fund's parent corporation receives a written request of the record holders of
at least 25% of the outstanding shares eligible to be voted at a meeting to
call a meeting for a specified purpose (which might include the removal of a
Director), the Directors will call a meeting of shareholders for that
specified purpose. The Fund's parent corporation has undertaken that it will
then either give the applicants access to the Fund's shareholder list or mail
the applicants' communication to all other shareholders at the applicants'
expense.

Board of Directors and Oversight Committees. The Fund's parent corporation is
governed by a Board of Directors, which is responsible for protecting the
interests of shareholders under Maryland law. The Directors meet periodically
throughout the year to oversee the Fund's activities, review its performance,
and review the actions of the Manager. Although the Fund will not normally
hold annual meetings of its shareholders, it may hold shareholder meetings
from time to time on important matters, and shareholders have the right to
call a meeting to remove a Director or to take other action described in the
Fund's Articles of Incorporation.

The members of the Study Committee are Benjamin Lipstein (Chairman),
Robert Galli and Elizabeth Moynihan. The Study Committee held eight meetings
during the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 2002. The Study Committee
evaluates and reports to the Board on the Fund's contractual arrangements,
including the Investment Advisory and Distribution Agreements, transfer and
shareholder service agreements and custodian agreements as well as the
policies and procedures adopted by the Fund to comply with the Investment
Company Act and other applicable law, among other duties as set forth in the
Committee's charter.

Messrs. Murphy, Leavy, Molleur, Wixted and Zack and Mses. Bechtolt,
Feld and Ives respectively hold the same offices with one or more of the
other Board I Funds as with the Fund. As of December 12, 2002, the Directors
and officers of the Fund as a group owned of record or beneficially less than
1% of each class of shares of the Fund. The foregoing statement does not
reflect ownership of shares of the Fund held of record by an employee benefit
plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares beneficially owned
under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above. In addition, each
Independent Director, and his family members, do not own securities of either
the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or any person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the
Manager or Distributor.

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 resulting from a
good faith error or omission on its part with respect to any of its duties
under the agreement.

The Board also receives information about the 12b-1 distribution fees
the Fund pays. These distribution fees are reviewed and approved at a
different time of the year.
The Board reviewed the foregoing information in arriving at its
decision to renew the investment advisory agreement. Among other factors,
the Board considered:
o The nature, cost, and quality of the services provided to the Fund and
its shareholders;
o The profitability of the Fund to the Manager;
o The investment performance of the Fund in comparison to regular market

indices;

Fund from its relationship with the Manager; and
o The direct and indirect benefits the Manager received from its

The Board considered that the Manager must be able to pay and retain
high quality personnel at competitive rates to provide services to the Fund.
The Board also considered that maintaining the financial viability of the
Manager is important so that the Manager will be able to continue to provide
quality services to the Fund and its shareholders in adverse times. The
Board also considered the investment performance of other mutual funds
advised by the Manager. The Board is aware that there are alternatives to the
use of the Manager.
These matters were also considered by the Independent Directors,
meeting separately from the full Board with experienced Counsel to the Fund
who assisted the Board in its deliberations. The Fund's Counsel is
independent of the Manager within the meaning and intent of the SEC Rules
regarding the independence of counsel.

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

Each plan has been approved by a vote of the Board of Directors,
including a majority of the Independent Directors3, cast in person at a
meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan.

Under the plans, the Manager and the Distributor, in their sole
discretion, from time to time, may use their own resources (at no direct cost
to the Fund) to make payments to brokers, dealers or other financial
institutions for distribution and administrative services they perform. The
Manager may use its profits from the advisory fee it receives from the Fund.
In their sole discretion, the Distributor and the Manager may increase or
decrease the amount of payments they make from their own resources to plan
recipients.
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 Directors and its
Independent Directors 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 Directors or by the vote of the holders
of a "majority" (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the outstanding
shares of that class.

While the plans are in effect, the Treasurer of the Fund shall provide
separate written reports on the plans to the Board of Directors 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 Directors.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2002 payments under the Class A
Plan totaled $405,280, of which $37 was retained by the Distributor under the
arrangement described above, and included $119,416 paid to an affiliate of
the Distributor's parent company. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor
incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered
in subsequent years. The Distributor may not use payments received under the
Class A Plan to pay any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other
financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

|X| Class B, Class C and Class N Service and Distribution Plan Fees. Under
each plan, service fees and distribution fees are computed on the average of
the net asset value of shares in the respective class, determined as of the
close of each regular business day during the period. 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.

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.
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 Fund under
the plans. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by
the Fund, the Board of Directors may allow the Fund to continue payments of
the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor for distributing shares
before the plan was terminated.

Performance of the Fund

o Total returns measure the performance of a hypothetical account in the
Fund over various periods and do not show the performance of each
shareholder's account. Your account's performance will vary from the model
performance data if your dividends are received in cash, or you buy or sell
shares during the period, or you bought your shares at a different time and
price than the shares used in the model.
o The Fund's performance returns do not reflect the effect of taxes on
dividends and capital gains distributions.
o An investment in the Fund is not insured by the FDIC or any other
government agency.
o The principal value of the Fund's shares, and total returns are not
guaranteed and normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.
o When an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
o Total returns for any given past period represent historical
performance information and are not, and should not be considered, a
prediction of future returns.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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 established.previously established Asset
Builder Plans, additional purchases will remain at $25. Shares purchased by
Asset Builder Plan payments from bank accounts are subject to the redemption
restrictions for recent purchases described in the Prospectus. Asset Builder
Plans are available only if your bank is an ACH member. Asset Builder Plans
may not be used to buy shares for OppenheimerFunds employer-sponsored
qualified retirement accounts. Asset Builder Plans also enable shareholders
of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves to use their fund account to make monthly
automatic purchases of shares of up to four other Oppenheimer funds.

|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 after six years 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.

Account Fees. As stated in the Prospectus, a $12 annual fee is assessed on
any account valued at less than $500. This fee will not be assessed on the
following accounts:

The fee is automatically deducted from qualifying accounts annually on
or about the second to last business day of September. This annual fee is
waived for any shareholders who elect to access their account documents
through electronic document delivery rather than in paper copy and who elect
to utilize the Internet or PhoneLink as their primary source for their
general servicing needs. To sign up 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.
------------------------
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 Stockthe Exchange("the on each day that the Exchange is open. The
calculation is done by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets
attributable to a class by the number of shares of that class that are
outstanding. The Exchange normally closes at 4:00 P.M., Eastern time, but
may close earlier on some other days (for example, in case of weather
emergencies or on days falling before a U.S. holiday). All references to
time in this Statement of Additional Information mean "Eastern time." The
Exchange's most recent annual announcement (which is subject to change)
states that it will close on New Year's Day, Presidents' Day, Martin Luther
King, Jr. Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. It may also close on other days.

How to Sell Shares

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

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.

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.

were exchanged, the Class A contingent deferred sales charge of the fund from
which the shares were exchanged is imposed on the redeemed shares.
o With respect to Class B shares, the Class B contingent deferred
sales charge is imposed on Class B shares acquired by exchange if they are
redeemed within six years of the initial purchase of the exchanged Class B
shares.

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

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.

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 Directors 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.

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
30% (29% for payments after December 31, 2003) on ordinary income dividends,
capital gains distributions and the proceeds of the redemption of shares,
paid to any foreign person. All income and any tax withheld (in this
situation) by the Fund is remitted by the Fund to the U.S. Treasury and is
identified in reports mailed to shareholders in January of each year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

================================================================================
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Value Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Value Fund, including the statement of investments, as of October
31, 2002, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the
statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period
then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of October 31, 2002, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from
brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer Value Fund as of October 31, 2002, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in
the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years
in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Value Fund (the Fund), a series of Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc.
(the Company), 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 long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in
common stocks with low price-earnings ratios and better-than-anticipated
earnings. 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. All classes of shares have identical rights
and voting privileges. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may
differ by minor amounts due to each class having its own expenses directly
attributable to that class. Classes 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. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges or
other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price of
the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's assets
are valued. 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 (including
restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available are valued
primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Directors, or at their fair value. Fair value is
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
supervision of the Board of Directors. 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 accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the valuation
date. Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and
investment income are translated at the prevailing exchange rates on the
respective dates of such transactions.

24 | OPPENHEIMER VALUE FUND

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. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds of 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 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; however,
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 daily to
each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its 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.

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2002, the Fund did not utilize any
capital loss carryforward.

Total $41,793,720
===========

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of the recognition of certain foreign
currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss) for tax purposes. The
character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net
investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate
characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of
dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed
may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was
recorded by the Fund.

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended October 31, 2002
and year ended October 31, 2001 was as follows:

Year Ended Year Ended
October 31, 2002 October 31, 2001

Long-term capital gain -- --
Return of capital -- --
--------------------------
Total $139,084 $1,953,426
==========================

As of October 31, 2002, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis
were as follows:

Undistributed net investment income $ 177,268
Accumulated net realized loss (44,667,813)
Net unrealized appreciation 3,453,968
------------
Total $(41,036,577)
============

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

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

26 | OPPENHEIMER VALUE FUND

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

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

27 | OPPENHEIMER VALUE FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other
than short-term obligations, for the year ended October 31, 2002, were
$334,479,987 and $333,369,595, respectively.

As of October 31, 2002, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on cost of
securities for federal income tax purposes of $202,691,968 was composed of:

Gross unrealized appreciation $ 16,413,941
Gross unrealized depreciation (15,834,106)
------------
Net unrealized appreciation $ 579,835
============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation and
depreciation, if applicable, is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales, or return of capital dividends, and the realization for
tax purposes of unrealized gain (loss) on certain futures contracts, investments
in passive foreign investment companies, and forward foreign currency exchange
contracts.

================================================================================
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee of 0.625%
of the first $300 million of average annual net assets of the Fund, 0.50% of the
next $100 million, and 0.45% of average annual net assets in excess of $400
million.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Fees. The Manager acts as the accounting agent for the Fund at an
annual fee of $15,000, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably
incurred.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 $19.75 per account fee.
Additionally, Class Y shares are subject to minimum fees of $5,000 for assets
of less than $10 million and $10,000 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.
OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent
fees up to an annual rate of 0.25% of average net assets of Class Y shares and
for all other classes, up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average net assets of
each class. Beginning November 1, 2002, transfer agent fees for Class Y shares
are limited to 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets. This undertaking
may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor's
Agreement with the Manager, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
the different classes of shares of the Fund.

1. The Distributor advances concession payments to dealers for certain sales of
Class A shares and for sales of Class B, Class C and Class N shares from its own
resources at the time of sale.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based
sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B shares and on Class C shares and the
Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.25% per year
on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year
under each plan.

================================================================================
5. Option Activity
The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and covered call
options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or
protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities.
The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options to
hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. When an
option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell or
purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option.
Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the
expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised,
the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written
put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is
adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid.
Securities designated to cover outstanding call options are noted in the
Statement of Investments where applicable. Shares subject to call, expiration
date, exercise price, premium received and market value are detailed in a note
to the Statement of Investments. Options written are reported as a liability in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Realized gains and losses are reported in the Statement of Operations.
The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity
for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is
exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur a loss if
the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk
in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is
exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into
a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.

Written option activity for the year ended October 31, 2002 was as follows:

Call Options
------------------------

6. Bank Borrowings
Effective November 13, 2001 the Fund no longer participated in an agreement with
other Oppenheimer funds in an unsecured line of credit with a bank. The Fund may
borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes, provided asset coverage
for borrowings exceeds 300%.
The Fund had no borrowings outstanding during the year ended October 31,
2002.

Long-Term (Taxable) Bond Ratings

Caa: Bonds rated "Caa" are of poor standing. Such issues may be in default or
there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or
interest.

Ca: Bonds rated "Ca" represent obligations which are speculative in a high
degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.

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

Short-Term Ratings - Taxable Debt

These ratings apply to the ability of issuers to honor senior debt
obligations having an original maturity not exceeding one year:

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

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

International Long-Term Credit Ratings

Speculative Grade:

International Short-Term Credit Ratings

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

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

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

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

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

D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.

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

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class
A shares4 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.5 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.

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds,
the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:
1) plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code,
2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
3) employee benefit plans6
4) Group Retirement Plans7
5) 403(b)(7) custodial plan accounts
6) Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), including traditional
IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SARSEPs or SIMPLE plans

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."8 This waiver provision applies to:
|_| Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
|_| Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
(other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
purchases of $200,000 or more.
|_| Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the
purchases are made:
1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser
that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those
purchases, or
2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified
Retirement Plan if the administrator of that Plan has made
special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
|_| Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
following record-keeping arrangements:
1) The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner &
Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the
Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
must have $3 million or more of its assets invested in (a) mutual
funds, other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch
Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available
under a Service Agreement between Merrill Lynch and the mutual
fund's principal underwriter or distributor, and (b) funds
advised or managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b)
are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a
daily valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are
provided under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement
Plan and Merrill Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
record keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
must have $3 million or more of its assets (excluding assets
invested in money market funds) invested in Applicable
Investments.
3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a
service agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date the plan
sponsor signs that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible
employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion
manager).

3. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, the term
"Independent Directors" in this Statement of Additional Information refers to
those Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Fund (or its parent
corporation) and who do not have any direct or indirect financial interest in
the operation of the distribution plan or any agreement under the plan.
4 Certain waivers also apply to Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible
Securities Fund.
5 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.
6 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.
7 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.
8 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.
9 This provision does not apply to IRAs.
10 This provision does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the
participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
11 The distribution must be requested prior to Plan termination or the
elimination of the Oppenheimer funds as an investment option under the Plan.
12 This provision does not apply to IRAs.
13 This provision does not apply to loans from 403(b)(7) custodial plans and
loans from the OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.
14 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
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

None.

Item 25.  Indemnification
- -------------------------

      Reference is made to the provisions of paragraph (b) of Section 7 or
Article SEVENTH of Registrant's Articles of Incorporation 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 Directors, 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 Director, officer or controlling
person of Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such Director, officer or controlling person,
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.

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

(a) OppenheimerFunds, Inc. is the investment adviser of the Registrant; it
and certain subsidiaries and affiliates act in the same capacity to other
investment companies, including with limitation those described in Parts A
and B hereof and listed in Item 26(b) below.

(b)   There is set forth below information as to any other business,
profession, vocation or employment of a substantial nature in which each
