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 ("SAI") 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 objectives.

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

     In selecting securities for the Fund's portfolio, the Manager evaluates the
merits of  particular  securities  primarily  through  the  exercise  of its own
investment  analysis.  In the case of non-governmental  issues, that process may
include,  among other things,  evaluation of the issuer's historical operations,
prospects for the industry of which the issuer is part,  the issuer's  financial
condition,   its  pending  product  developments  and  business  (and  those  of
competitors),  the  effect of  general  market and  economic  conditions  on the
issuer's  business,  and legislative  proposals that might affect the issuer. In
the  case  of  foreign  issuers,  the  Manager  may  consider  general  economic
conditions,  the conditions of a particular country's economy in relation to the
U.S.  economy or other  foreign  economies,  general  political  conditions in a
country or region, the effect of taxes, the efficiencies and costs of particular
markets (as well as their liquidity) and other factors.

     |X| Debt Securities. The Fund can invest in a variety of debt securities to
seek its objective.  Foreign debt securities are subject to the risks of foreign
securities described below. In general,  debt securities are also subject to two
additional types of risk: credit risk and interest rate risk.

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

     The Fund's investments  primarily are investment-grade  debt securities and
U.S. government securities.  U.S. government  securities,  although unrated, are
generally  considered  to be  equivalent  to  securities  in the highest  rating
categories.  Investment-grade  bonds are bonds  rated at least  "Baa" by Moody's
Investors  Service,  Inc.,  or at least "BBB" by Standard  &  Poor's  Rating
Service  or  Fitch,   Inc.,   or  that  have   comparable   ratings  by  another
nationally-recognized    rating   organization.    The   Fund   can   also   buy
non-investment-grade debt securities (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").

     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  securities  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.

     o 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 Fund takes a short  position in the credit
default  swap,  and 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,  and
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.

     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).

     o Interest  Rate Risk.  Interest  rate risk refers to the  fluctuations  in
value of debt 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  debt  securities,  and a decline in
general  interest  rates will tend to increase  their value.  In addition,  debt
securities having longer maturities tend to offer higher yields, but are subject
to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than
obligations having shorter maturities.

     Fluctuations  in the market  value of debt  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.

     o Special  Risks of  Lower-Grade  Debt  Securities.  The Fund can invest in
lower-grade debt securities. Because lower-grade securities tend to offer higher
yields than  investment-grade  securities,  the Fund might invest in lower-grade
securities if the Manager is trying to achieve higher income.

     "Lower-grade"  debt  securities are those rated below  "investment  grade,"
which  means they have a rating  lower than "Baa" by Moody's or lower than "BBB"
by  Standard  &  Poor's or Fitch,  Inc. or similar  ratings by other  rating
organizations.  If they are unrated,  and are determined by the Manager to be of
comparable  quality to debt securities  rated below investment  grade,  they are
considered part of the Fund's portfolio of lower-grade securities.

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

     To the extent they can be converted into stock,  convertible securities may
be less subject to some of the risks of  volatility  than  non-convertible  high
yield bonds,  since stock may be more liquid and less  affected by some of these
risk factors.

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

     |X|  Duration  of the  Fund's  Portfolio.  The  Fund  can  invest  in  debt
securities  of any  maturity  or  duration  but  currently  seeks to  maintain a
dollar-weighted  average effective portfolio duration of three to six years. The
goal is to try to manage the  sensitivity of the Fund's  portfolio to changes in
interest  rates,  and in doing so to manage the  volatility  of the Fund's share
prices in response to those changes.  However,  unanticipated  events may change
the effective duration of a security after the Fund buys it, and there can be no
assurance that the Fund will achieve its targeted duration at all times.

     The Manager determines the effective duration of debt obligations purchased
by the Fund considering  various factors that apply to a particular type of debt
obligation,  including  those  described  below.  Duration  is a measure  of the
expected life of a security on a current-value  basis expressed in years,  using
calculations that consider the security's yield, coupon interest payments, final
maturity and call features.

     While a debt security's  maturity can be used to measure the sensitivity of
the  security's  price to changes in interest  rates,  the term to maturity of a
security  does not take into  account the pattern (or  expected  pattern) of the
security's payments of interest or principal prior to maturity. Duration, on the
other hand,  measures  the length of the time  interval  from the present to the
time when the interest and principal  payments are scheduled to be received (or,
in the case of a  mortgage-related  security,  when the  interest  payments  are
expected to be received).  Duration calculations weigh them by the present value
of the  cash to be  received  at each  future  point in  time.  If the  interest
payments on a debt  security  occur prior to the  repayment  of  principal,  the
duration  of the  security  is less than its stated  maturity.  For  zero-coupon
securities, duration and term to maturity are equal.

     Absent other factors,  the lower the stated or coupon rate of interest on a
debt security or the longer the maturity or the lower the  yield-to-maturity  of
the debt  security,  the longer the duration of the  security.  Conversely,  the
higher the stated or coupon rate of interest or the shorter the  maturity or the
higher the yield-to-maturity of a debt security, the shorter the duration of the
security.

     Futures,  options and options on futures in general have durations that are
closely  related to the duration of the securities  that underlie them.  Holding
long futures  positions or call option positions  (backed by liquid assets) will
tend to lengthen the portfolio's duration.

     In some cases the standard effective duration calculation does not properly
reflect the interest  rate  exposure of a security.  For  example,  floating and
variable  rate  securities  often have final  maturities  of ten or more  years.
However, their exposure to interest rate changes corresponds to the frequency of
the times at which their interest  coupon rate is reset. In the case of mortgage
pass-through securities,  the stated final maturity of the security is typically
30 years,  but current rates or prepayments  are more important to determine the
security's interest rate exposure.  In these and other similar  situations,  the
Manager will use other analytical  techniques that consider the economic life of
the  security  as well as relevant  macroeconomic  factors  (such as  historical
prepayment rates) in determining the Fund's effective duration.

     |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 entities  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.

     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.  Therefore,  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.  Therefore, 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
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.  Collateralized mortgage obligations
or "CMOs," are  multi-class  bonds that are backed by pools of mortgage loans or
mortgage  pass-through   certificates.   They  may  be  collateralized  by:  (1)
pass-through  certificates  issued or guaranteed by Government National Mortgage
Association (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 reverse  direction to an
applicable  index.  The  coupon  rate on these  CMOs will  increase  as  general
interest  rates  decrease.  These are usually much more volatile than fixed rate
CMOs or floating rate CMOs.

     |X| U.S. Government  Securities.  These are securities issued or guaranteed
by the U.S. Treasury or other U.S.  government  agencies or  federally-chartered
corporate entities referred to as  "instrumentalities."  The obligations of U.S.
government agencies or instrumentalities in which the Fund can 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.

     o U.S.  Treasury  Obligations.  These  include  Treasury  bills (which have
maturities  of one  year  or less  when  issued),  Treasury  notes  (which  have
maturities of more than one year and up to ten years when issued),  and Treasury
bonds  (which  have  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.  Other U.S.  Treasury
obligations  the Fund can buy 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  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") and  Federal  Home Loan  Mortgage
Corporation obligations ("Freddie Macs").

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

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

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

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

     o 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.  These securities are
subject to prepayment  risks and the risk of default by the issuer as well as by
the  borrowers  of the  underlying  loans  in the  pool.  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.

     |X|  Participation   Interests.   The  Fund  can  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.  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|  Foreign  Securities.  "Foreign  securities"  include  equity  and debt
securities  issued  or  guaranteed  by  companies  organized  under  the laws of
countries other than the United States and debt securities  issued or guaranteed
by  governments  other than the U.S.  government  or by  foreign  supra-national
entities,  such as the World  Bank.  Those  securities  may be traded on foreign
securities  exchanges  or in the foreign  over-the-counter  markets.  Securities
denominated in foreign  currencies issued by U.S.  companies are also considered
to be "foreign  securities."  The Fund  expects to have  investments  in foreign
securities as part of its normal investment strategy.

     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,  because they are not subject to many of
the special  considerations  and risks,  discussed below,  that apply to foreign
securities traded and held abroad.

     American  Depository  Receipts ("ADR") facilities may be either "sponsored"
or "un-sponsored."  While sponsored and un-sponsored ADR facilities are similar,
distinctions  exist  between  the rights and  duties of ADR  holders  and market
practices.  Sponsored  facilities  have  the  backing  or  participation  of the
underlying   foreign   issuers.   Un-sponsored   facilities   do  not  have  the
participation by or consent of the issuer of the deposited shares.  Un-sponsored
facilities usually request a letter of non-objection from the issuer. Holders of
un-sponsored  ADRs generally  bear all the costs of such facility.  The costs of
the facility can include deposit and withdrawal  fees,  currency  conversion and
other service fees.  The depository of an  un-sponsored  facility may not have a
duty to distribute shareholder communications from the issuer or to pass through
voting  rights.  Issuers  of  un-sponsored  ADRs do not  have an  obligation  to
disclose material information about the foreign issuers in the U.S. As a result,
the  value of the  un-sponsored  ADR may not  correlate  with  the  value of the
underlying  security  trading  abroad  or any  material  information  about  the
security or the issuer disseminated  abroad.  Sponsored facilities enter into an
agreement  with the issuer  that sets out rights and duties of the  issuer,  the
depository and the ADR holder. The sponsored agreement also allocates fees among
the  parties.  Most  sponsored  agreements  provide  that  the  depository  will
distribute shareholder notices, voting instructions and other communications.

     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 income  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 securities markets that do not move in a manner parallel to
U.S.  markets.  The Fund will hold foreign  currency only in connection with the
purchase or sale of foreign securities.

     o Foreign Debt  Obligations.  The debt obligations of a foreign  government
and its agencies and  instrumentalities  may or may not be supported by the full
faith and credit of the foreign  government.  The Fund can 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.

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

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

     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.

     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  devaluation,  or currency  control  regulations (for example,
currency blockage);

     o transaction charges for currency exchange;

     o lack of public information about foreign issuers;

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

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

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

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

     o greater difficulties in commencing lawsuits;

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

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

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

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

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

     o Special Risks of Emerging Markets. Emerging and developing markets abroad
may also offer special  opportunities  for 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,  and the Fund currently does not
expect to invest a substantial portion of its assets in emerging markets.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     |X| "Stripped" Mortgage-Related Securities. The Fund can 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 holding at an acceptable price.

     |X| Floating Rate and Variable Rate Obligations.  Variable rate obligations
may 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  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.  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 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.

     Step-coupon  bonds have a coupon  interest  rate that changes  periodically
during the life of the  security  on  predetermined  dates that are set when the
security is issued.

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

     When  such  transactions  are  negotiated,  the price  (which is  generally
expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment is made.  Delivery
and payment for the  securities  take place at a later date.  The securities are
subject  to change in value from  market  fluctuations  during the period  until
settlement.  The value at  delivery  may be less than the  purchase  price.  For
example,  changes in interest  rates in a direction  other than that expected by
the Manager before  settlement  will affect the value of such securities and may
cause a loss to the Fund. During the period between purchase and settlement,  no
payment is made by the Fund to the issuer  and no  interest  accrues to the Fund
from the  investment  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 or for delivery pursuant to options contracts
it has entered into,  and not for the purpose of investment  leverage.  Although
the Fund will enter into  delayed-delivery or when-issued purchase  transactions
to acquire  securities,  it may dispose of a commitment prior to settlement.  If
the Fund chooses to dispose of the right to acquire a when-issued security prior
to its  acquisition or to dispose of its right to delivery or receive  against a
forward commitment, it may incur a gain or loss.

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

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

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

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

     The  majority  of these  transactions  run from  day to day,  and  delivery
pursuant to the resale typically occurs within one to five days of the purchase.
Repurchase  agreements  having a maturity  beyond  seven days are subject to the
Fund's limits on holding  illiquid  investments.  The Fund will not enter into a
repurchase  agreement  that causes more than 15% 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 for defensive purposes.

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

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

     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.

     |X| Illiquid and Restricted  Securities.  Under the policies and procedures
established  by the  Fund's  Board  of  Trustees,  the  Manager  determines  the
liquidity of certain of the Fund's  investments.  To enable the Fund to sell its
holdings of a restricted  security not  registered  under the  Securities Act of
1933, the Fund may have to cause those securities to be registered. The expenses
of  registering  restricted  securities  may be  negotiated by the Fund with the
issuer at the time the Fund  buys the  securities.  When the Fund  must  arrange
registration because the Fund wishes to sell the security, a considerable period
may elapse  between the time the  decision is made to sell the  security and the
time the security is  registered  so that the Fund could sell it. The Fund would
bear the risks of any downward price fluctuation during that period.

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

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


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

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

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

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

     |X| Investments in Equity  Securities.  Under normal market  conditions the
Fund can invest a portion of assets in common stocks, preferred stocks, warrants
(which might be acquired as part of a "unit" of  securities  that  includes debt
securities) and convertible debt securities,  which in some cases are considered
"equity  equivalents."  However,  it does  not  currently  anticipate  investing
significant  amounts  of its assets in equity  securities  as part of its normal
investment strategy.  Certain equity securities may be selected because they may
provide dividend income.

     o Risks of  Investing  in  Stocks.  Stocks  fluctuate  in price,  and their
short-term volatility at times may be great. To the extent that the Fund invests
in equity  securities,  the value of the Fund's  portfolio  will be  affected by
changes in the stock markets.  Market risk can affect the Fund's net asset value
per share, which will fluctuate as the values of the Fund's portfolio securities
change.  The prices of individual  stocks do not all move in the same  direction
uniformly or at the same time.  Different  stock markets may behave  differently
from each other.

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

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

     o Convertible  Securities.  While some convertible securities are a form of
debt security,  in certain cases their conversion  feature (allowing  conversion
into equity  securities)  causes  them to be  regarded  by the  Manager  more as
"equity  equivalents."  As a result,  the rating  assigned to the security might
have  less  impact  on  the  Manager's   investment  decision  with  respect  to
convertible  securities  than  in  the  case  of  non-convertible   fixed-income
securities.  Convertible  debt  securities  are subject to the credit  risks and
interest rate risks described above in "Debt Securities."

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

     To determine whether  convertible  securities should be regarded as "equity
equivalents," the Manager examines the following factors:

     (1) whether, at the option of the investor, the convertible security can be
exchanged for a fixed number of shares of common stock of the issuer,

     (2) whether  the issuer of the  convertible  securities  has  restated  its
earnings per share of common stock on a fully  diluted  basis  (considering  the
effect of conversion of the convertible securities), and

     (3) the extent to which the convertible security may be a defensive "equity
substitute,"  providing the ability to  participate in any  appreciation  in the
price of the issuer's common stock.

     |X| Rights and Warrants.  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| Preferred  Stocks.  Preferred stock,  unlike common stock, has a stated
dividend rate payable from the corporation's earnings. Preferred stock dividends
may  be  cumulative   or   non-cumulative,   participating,   or  auction  rate.
"Cumulative"  dividend  provisions  require  all or a  portion  of prior  unpaid
dividends to be paid before  dividends can be paid on the issuer's common stock.
Preferred  stock  may be  "participating"  stock,  which  means  that  it may be
entitled to a dividend exceeding the stated dividend in certain cases.

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

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

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

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

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

     |X| Money Market  Instruments.  The following is a brief description of the
types of the U.S. dollar denominated money market securities the Fund can invest
in. Money market securities are  high-quality,  short-term debt instruments that
may be issued by the U.S.  government,  corporations,  banks or other  entities.
They may have fixed, variable or floating interest rates.

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

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

     o  obligations  of a foreign  bank with total  assets of at least  U.S.  $1
billion.

     |X| "Banks" include  commercial  banks,  savings banks and savings and loan
associations,  which may or may not be members of the Federal Deposit  Insurance
Corporation.

     o Commercial  Paper. The Fund can invest in commercial paper if it is rated
within the top three rating  categories of Standard &  Poor's and Moody's or
other rating organizations.

     If the paper is not rated,  it may be purchased  if the Manager  determines
that  it is  comparable  to  rated  commercial  paper  in the top  three  rating
categories of national rating organizations.

     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, described in the Prospectus.

     |X| Derivatives. The Fund can invest in a variety of derivative investments
for speculative  (seeking higher returns) or hedging (managing  investment risk)
purposes.  Some  derivative  investments  the  Fund  can  use  are  the  hedging
instruments described below in this SAI.

     Among the derivative  investments the Fund can invest in are "index-linked"
or "currency-linked"  notes.  Principal and/or interest payments on index-linked
notes  depend  on  the  performance  of an  underlying  index.  Currency-indexed
securities are typically 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.

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

     |X|  Hedging.  The  Fund can use  hedging  instruments  although  it is not
obligated to use them in seeking its  objective.  To attempt to protect  against
declines  in the  market  value of the Fund's  portfolio,  to permit the Fund to
retain  unrealized  gains  in the  value  of  portfolio  securities  which  have
appreciated,  or to facilitate  selling securities for investment  reasons,  the
Fund could:

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

     The Fund can use hedging to establish a position in the  securities  market
as a temporary substitute for purchasing  particular  securities.  In that case,
the Fund would  normally seek to purchase the securities and then terminate that
hedging  position.  The Fund  might  also use this type of hedge to  attempt  to
protect against the possibility that its portfolio securities would not be fully
included  in a rise in  value of the  market.  To do so the  Fund  could:  o buy
futures, or o buy calls on 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 futures  contracts that relate to (1)
broadly-based  bond  or  other  security  indices  (these  are  referred  to  as
"financial  futures"),  (2)  commodities  (these are  referred to as  "commodity
futures"),  (3)  debt  securities  (these  are  referred  to as  "interest  rate
futures"),   (4)  foreign   currencies   (these  are  referred  to  as  "forward
contracts"),  (5) an  individual  stock  ("single  stock  futures") and (6) bond
indices (these are referred to as "bond index futures").

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o Writing Covered Call Options.  The Fund can write (that is, sell) covered
calls. If the Fund sells a call option, it must be covered.  That means the Fund
must own the security subject to the call while the call is outstanding,  or the
call may be covered by  segregating  liquid assets to enable the Fund to satisfy
its obligations if the call is exercised.

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

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

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

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

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

     The Fund may also  write  calls on a futures  contract  without  owning the
futures contract or securities  deliverable under the contract. To do so, at the
time the call is  written,  the Fund must  cover the call by  identifying  on it
books an  equivalent  dollar  amount of liquid  assets.  The Fund will  identify
additional  liquid  assets  on its  books to cover  the call if the value of the
identified  assets drops below 100% of the current value of the future.  Because
of this asset coverage 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  on  securities,
broadly-based  securities indices,  foreign currencies and futures. 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.

     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 deposit in escrow liquid assets with a
value equal to or greater than the exercise price of the underlying  securities.
The Fund therefore forgoes the opportunity of investing the segregated assets or
writing calls against those assets.

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

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

     o Purchasing  Calls and Puts.  The Fund can purchase  calls on  securities,
broadly-based  securities indices,  foreign currencies and futures. It may do so
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 on  securities,  broadly-based  securities  indices,
foreign  currencies  and  futures,   whether  or  not  it  owns  the  underlying
investment.  When the Fund purchases a put, it pays a premium and,  except as to
puts on indices, has the right to sell the underlying  investment to a seller of
a put on a  corresponding  investment  during the put period at a fixed exercise
price.

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

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

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

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

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

     A call the Fund writes on a foreign  currency is "covered" if the Fund owns
the  underlying  foreign  currency  covered by the call or has an  absolute  and
immediate  right to  acquire  that  foreign  currency  without  additional  cash
consideration  (or it can do so for  additional  cash  consideration  held  in a
segregated  account by its custodian  bank) 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  liquid assets on its
books having a value equal to its obligation under 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  to
its custodian  bank assets  having a value equal to the aggregate  amount of the
Fund's commitment under forward contracts. However, to avoid excess transactions
and transaction costs, the Fund may maintain a net exposure to forward contracts
in  excess of the  value of the  Fund's  portfolio  securities  or other  assets
denominated  in foreign  currencies  if the excess amount is "covered" by liquid
securities  denominated in any currency. The cover must be at least equal at all
times to the amount of that excess. As one alternative,  the Fund may purchase a
call option permitting the Fund to purchase the amount of foreign currency being
hedged by a forward sale contract at a price no higher than the forward contract
price. As another alternative, the Fund may purchase a put option permitting the
Fund to sell the  amount of  foreign  currency  subject  to a  forward  purchase
contract at a price as high or higher than the forward contact price.

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

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

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

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

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

     o Interest  Rate Swap  Transactions.  The Fund can enter into interest rate
swap  agreements.  In an interest rate swap, the Fund and another party exchange
their right to receive or their  obligation  to pay interest on a security.  For
example,  they might swap the right to receive  floating rate payments for fixed
rate  payments.  Also, the Fund will identify on its book 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  may terminate all of the swaps with that party.  Under
these  agreements,  if a default results in a loss to one party,  the measure of
that  party's  damages is  calculated  by  reference  to the  average  cost of a
replacement  swap for each swap. It is measured by the  mark-to-market  value at
the time of the  termination of each swap. The gains and losses on all swaps are
then netted, and the result is the  counterparty's  gain or loss on termination.
The  termination of all swaps and the netting of gains and losses on termination
is generally referred to as "aggregation."

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

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

     Transactions in options by the Fund are subject to limitations  established
by the option exchanges.  The exchanges limit the maximum number of options that
may be  written or held by a single  investor  or group of  investors  acting in
concert.  Those limits apply  regardless  of whether the options were written or
purchased on the same or different exchanges or are held in one or more accounts
or through one or more different exchanges or through one or more brokers. Thus,
the number of options that the Fund may write or hold may be affected by options
written or held by other entities,  including other investment  companies having
the same  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 the Investment Company Act, when the Fund purchases a future, it must
maintain  liquid assets 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.

     |X| Portfolio  Turnover.  "Portfolio  turnover" describes the rate at which
the Fund  traded its  portfolio  securities  during its last  fiscal  year.  For
example,  if a fund sold all of its  securities  during the year,  its portfolio
turnover  rate would have been 100%.  The Fund's  portfolio  turnover  rate will
fluctuate from year to year,  and the Fund expects to have a portfolio  turnover
rate of more than 100% annually.

     Increased portfolio turnover may result in 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.

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

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.

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

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

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

     o The Fund cannot  concentrate its investments (that means it cannot invest
25% or more of its total assets) in any one industry.  Gas, water,  electric and
telephone utilities are considered to be separate industries for this purpose.

     o The Fund cannot make loans except (a) through lending of securities,  (b)
through the purchase of debt  instruments or similar  evidences of indebtedness,
(c) through an inter-fund  lending program with other affiliated  funds, and (d)
through repurchase agreements.

     o The Fund  cannot  invest in real estate or real  estate  mortgage  loans.
However,  the Fund can  purchase  and  sell  securities  issued  or  secured  by
companies that invest in or deal in real estate or interests in real estate.

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

     o The Fund  cannot  borrow  money in  excess of 33 1/3% of the value of its
total assets.  The Fund may borrow only from banks and/or affiliated  investment
companies.  With respect to this fundamental policy, the Fund can borrow only if
it maintains a 300% ratio of assets to borrowings at all times in the manner set
forth in the Investment Company Act.

     o The Fund cannot  issue  "senior  securities,"  but this does not prohibit
certain  investment  activities  for which assets of the Fund are  designated as
segregated,  or margin,  collateral or escrow  arrangements are established,  to
cover the related  obligations.  Examples of those activities  include borrowing
money,   reverse  repurchase   agreements,   delayed-delivery   and  when-issued
arrangements for portfolio securities transactions, and contracts to buy or sell
derivatives, hedging instruments, options or futures.

     For purposes of the Fund's policy not to concentrate its  investments,  the
Fund has adopted the  industry  classifications  set forth in Appendix B to this
SAI. That is not a fundamental policy.

     Unless the  Prospectus  or this SAI 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.

     |X| Does the Fund Have Additional  Restrictions  That Are Not "Fundamental"
Policies? The Fund has an additional operating policy that is not "fundamental,"
and which can be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o Senior  officers  (a Senior  Vice  President  or above) in the  Manager's
Portfolio and Legal  departments must approve the completed  request for release
of Fund portfolio holdings; and

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

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

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

     o The Fund's independent registered public accounting firm,

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

     o The Fund's custodian bank,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o Brokers and dealers to obtain bids or bid and asked prices (if securities
held by the Fund are not priced by the Fund's regular pricing services)

     o Dealers to obtain price  quotations  where the Fund is not  identified as
the owner.

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

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

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

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

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

     o Investment  bankers in connection  with merger  discussions  (pursuant to
confidentiality agreements).

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


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

     Any  permitted   release  of  otherwise   non-public   portfolio   holdings
information  must be in  accordance  with  the  Fund's  then-current  policy  on
approved methods for communicating  confidential information,  including but not
limited to the Fund's policy as to use of secure e-mail technology.

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

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

How the Fund is Managed

     Organization and History. The Fund, a series of Oppenheimer Integrity Funds
(referred to as the "Trust"),  is an open-end diversified  management investment
company,  with an unlimited number of authorized shares of beneficial  interest.
The Trust was  established in 1982 as MassMutual  Liquid Assets Trust.  The Fund
was reorganized from a closed-end  investment  company called  MassMutual Income
Investors,  Inc. into a series of the Trust on April 15, 1988.  The Fund and the
Trust were originally  managed by Massachusetts  Mutual Life Insurance  Company,
the Manager's indirect parent company. On March 29, 1991, the Manager became the
Fund's  investment  advisor,  and the  Trust  changed  its  name to  Oppenheimer
Integrity Funds. The Fund was then called Oppenheimer Investment Grade Bond Fund
and changed its name to  Oppenheimer  Bond Fund on July 10, 1995. On January 21,
2005, the Fund changed its name from  Oppenheimer  Bond Fund to Oppenheimer Core
Bond Fund.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     The Board of Trustees  has an Audit  Committee,  a Review  Committee  and a
Governance Committee. Each committee is comprised solely of Trustees who are not
"interested   persons"  under  the  Investment  Company  Act  (the  "Independent
Trustees"). The members of the Audit Committee are Edward L. Cameron (Chairman),
George C.  Bowen,  Robert J.  Malone  and F.  William  Marshall,  Jr.  The Audit
Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
The Audit  Committee  furnishes  the Board with  recommendations  regarding  the
selection of the Fund's  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm (also
referred to as the  "independent  Auditors").  Other main functions of the Audit
Committee, outlined in the Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited
to: (i)  reviewing the scope and results of financial  statement  audits and the
audit fees charged;  (ii) reviewing reports from the Fund's independent Auditors
regarding  the  Fund's  internal  accounting  procedures  and  controls;   (iii)
reviewing reports from the Manager's  Internal Audit Department;  (iv) reviewing
certain  reports from and meet  periodically  with the Funds'  Chief  Compliance
Officer;  (v)  maintaining a separate line of  communication  between the Fund's
independent   Auditors  and  the  Independent   Trustees;   (vi)  reviewing  the
independence of the Fund's  independent  Auditors;  and (vii)  pre-approving the
provision of any audit or non-audit services by the Fund's independent Auditors,
including tax services,  that are not prohibited by the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act, to
the Fund, the Manager and certain affiliates of the Manager.

     The Review  Committee  is comprised  solely of  Independent  Trustees.  The
members of the Review Committee are Sam Freedman (Chairman), Robert G. Avis, Jon
S. Fossel and Beverly L. Hamilton.  The Review  Committee held 6 meetings during
the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. Among other duties, as set forth
in the Review  Committee's  Charter,  the  Review  Committee  reports  and makes
recommendations  to the Board  concerning  the fees paid to the Fund's  transfer
agent and the Manager  and the  services  provided  to the Fund by the  transfer
agent and the Manager.  The Review Committee also reviews the Fund's  investment
performance as well as the policies and procedures adopted by the Fund to comply
with the Investment Company Act and other applicable law.

     The Governance Committee is comprised solely of Independent  Trustees.  The
members of the  Governance  Committee are Robert J. Malone  (Chairman),  William
Armstrong,  Beverly L.  Hamilton and F.  William  Marshall,  Jr. The  Governance
Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
The  Governance  Committee  has adopted a charter  setting  forth its duties and
responsibilities.  Among other  duties,  the  Governance  Committee  reviews and
oversees the Fund's governance  guidelines,  the adequacy of the Fund's Codes of
Ethics and the  nomination  of Trustees,  including  Independent  Trustees.  The
Governance  Committee  has  adopted  a process  for  shareholder  submission  of
nominees for board  positions.  Shareholders  may submit  names of  individuals,
accompanied  by complete  and properly  supported  resumes,  for the  Governance
Committee's   consideration  by  mailing  such  information  to  the  Governance
Committee  in care of the Fund.  The  Governance  Committee  may  consider  such
persons at such time as it meets to consider possible  nominees.  The Governance
Committee,  however,  reserves sole discretion to determine which candidates for
Trustees  and  Independent  Trustees  it  will  recommend  to the  Board  and/or
shareholders  and it may  identify  candidates  other  than those  submitted  by
Shareholders.  The Governance  Committee may, but need not,  consider the advice
and  recommendation of the Manager and/or its affiliates in selecting  nominees.
The full Board elects new Trustees except for those instances when a shareholder
vote is required.

     Shareholders  who  desire  to  communicate  with the Board  should  address
correspondence  to the Board or an individual  Board member and may submit their
correspondence  electronically  at  www.oppenheimerfunds.com  under the  caption
"contact us" or by mail to the Fund at the address below.

     Trustees  and  Officers  of the Fund.  Except for Mr.  Murphy,  each of the
Trustees is an  Independent  Trustee.  All of the Trustees are also  trustees or
directors of the following  Oppenheimer/Centennial  funds (referred to as "Board
II Funds"):

Oppenheimer Cash Reserves                               Oppenheimer Principal Protected Trust III
Oppenheimer Capital Income Fund                         Oppenheimer  Commodity  Strategy  Total  Return
                                                        Fund
Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund                        Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund
Oppenheimer Equity Fund, Inc.                           Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund
Oppenheimer Integrity Funds                             Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds
Oppenheimer International Bond Fund                     Panorama Series Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund
Oppenheimer Main Street Funds, Inc.
Oppenheimer Main Street Opportunity Fund                Centennial California Tax Exempt Trust
Oppenheimer Main Street Small Cap Fund                  Centennial Government Trust
Oppenheimer Municipal Fund                              Centennial Money Market Trust
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Trust                   Centennial New York Tax Exempt Trust
Oppenheimer Principal Protected Trust II                Centennial Tax Exempt Trust


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

     Messrs.  Bomfim,  Caan,  Gord,  Manioudakis,   Swaney,  Gillespie,  Murphy,
Petersen,  Szilagyi,  Vandehey, Wixted and Zack and Mss. Bloomberg and Ives, who
are  officers of the Fund,  hold the same  offices with one or more of the other
Board II Funds. As of March 30, 2007 the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a
group,  owned of record or  beneficially  less than 1% of any class of shares of
the Fund. The foregoing  statement does not reflect  ownership of shares held of
record by an employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager,  other than the
shares beneficially owned under that plan by the officers of the Board II Funds.
In addition, none of the Independent Trustees (nor any of their immediate family
members)  owns  securities of either the Manager or the  Distributor,  or of any
entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control
with the Manager or the Distributor, of the Board II Funds.

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

     1.  "Aggregate  Compensation  From the  Fund"  includes  fees and  deferred
compensation, if any.

     2. In accordance with SEC  regulations,  for purposes of this section only,
"Fund Complex"  includes the  Oppenheimer  funds,  the MassMutual  Institutional
Funds,  the  MassMutual  Select Funds and the MML Series  Investment  Fund,  the
investment  adviser  for which is the  indirect  parent  company  of the  Fund's
Manager. The Manager also serves as the Sub-Advisor to the following: MassMutual
Premier   International  Equity  Fund,  MassMutual  Premier  Main  Street  Fund,
MassMutual   Premier   Strategic   Income  Fund,   MassMutual   Premier  Capital
Appreciation  Fund,  and  MassMutual  Premier  Global Fund. The Manager does not
consider MassMutual  Institutional Funds, MassMutual Select Funds and MML Series
Investment Fund to be part of the OppenheimerFunds'  "Fund Complex" as that term
may be otherwise interpreted.

     3.  Includes   $2,445   deferred  by  Ms.   Hamilton  under  the  "Deferred
Compensation Plan" described below.

     4. Mr. Malone cancelled the Deferred Compensation Plan effective January 1,
2006.

     5.  Includes  $62,500  compensation  paid to Mr.  Marshall for serving as a

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

     Deferral of Trustees'  fees under the plan will not  materially  affect the
Fund's assets,  liabilities or net income per share.  The plan will not obligate
the Fund to retain the services of any Trustee or to pay any particular level of
compensation  to any Trustee.  Pursuant to an Order issued by the Securities and
Exchange  Commission,  the Fund may invest in the funds selected by the Trustees
under  the  plan  without  shareholder  approval  for  the  limited  purpose  of
determining the value of the Trustees' deferred compensation 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 SEC and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public  Reference  Room
in Washington,  D.C. You can obtain  information about the hours of operation of
the Public  Reference  Room by calling  the SEC at  1.202.942.8090.  The Code of
Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's  registration  statement  on the
SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's Internet website at www.sec.gov. Copies may be
obtained, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at the following
E-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov., or by writing to the SEC's Public Reference
Section, Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o The Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.

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

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

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


     |X| The Investment  Advisory  Agreement.  The Manager  provides  investment
advisory  and  management  services  to the Fund  under an  investment  advisory
agreement  between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager selects  securities for
the Fund's portfolio and handles its day-to-day business. The portfolio 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 Fixed Income Portfolio Team provide the portfolio managers with
counsel and support in managing the Fund's portfolio.

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

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

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

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

     Until  March 1991,  Massachusetts  Mutual  Life  Insurance  Company was the
Fund's  investment  advisor.  The Manager became the Fund's  investment  advisor
March 28, 1991, and the Manager engaged MassMutual as sub-advisor from March 28,
1991 until July 10, 1995.

     Portfolio Managers. The Fund's portfolio is managed by a team of investment
professionals comprised of Angelo Manioudakis,  Benjamin J. Gord, Geoffrey Caan,
Antulio  N.  Bomfim and  Thomas  Swaney  (each is  referred  to as a  "portfolio
manager" and collectively they are referred to as the "portfolio  managers") who
are responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's investments.

     Other   Accounts   Managed.   In  addition  to  managing  the   Portfolios'
investments,  the portfolio managers also manage other investment portfolios and
accounts.   The  following  table  provides  information   regarding  the  other
portfolios  and accounts  managed by the  portfolio  managers as of December 31,
2006. No account has a performance-based advisory fee:

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

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

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

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

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

        Portfolio Manager                  Range of Shares Beneficially
                                            Owned in the Fund

        Benjamin J. Gord                      $100,001-$500,000

        Geoffrey Caan                         $1-$10,000

        Antulio N. Bomfim                     $10,001-$50,000

        Thomas Swaney                         $1-$10,000

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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


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

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

     Most securities purchases made by the Fund are in principal transactions at
net prices.  The Fund  usually  deals  directly  with the selling or  purchasing
principal or market maker without incurring charges for the services of a broker
on its behalf unless the Manager determines that a better price or execution may
be obtained  by using the  services  of a broker.  Therefore,  the Fund does not
incur  substantial   brokerage  costs.   Portfolio   securities  purchased  from
underwriters  include  a  commission  or  concession  paid by the  issuer to the
underwriter in the price of the security.  Portfolio  securities  purchased from
dealers  include  a  spread  between  the  bid and  asked  price.  In an  option
transaction,  the Fund  ordinarily uses the same broker for the purchase or sale
of the option and any transaction in the investment to which the option relates.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     During the fiscal years ended  December 31, 2004,  2005 and 2006,  the Fund
paid the total brokerage  commissions  indicated in the chart below.  During the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2006,  the Fund did not execute any  transactions
through or pay any commissions to firms that provide research 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 and the contingent  deferred  sales charges  retained by
the  Distributor on the redemption of shares during the Fund's three most recent
fiscal years are shown in the tables below.

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

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

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

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

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

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


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


     |X| Class A  Service  Plan  Fees.  Under  the  Class A  service  plan,  the
Distributor  currently  uses the fees it receives  from the Fund to pay brokers,
dealers and other  financial  institutions  (referred  to as  "recipients")  for
personal  services  and  account  maintenance  services  they  provide for their
customers who hold Class A shares. The services include, among others, answering
customer  inquiries about the Fund,  assisting in  establishing  and maintaining
accounts in the Fund, making the Fund's investment plans available and providing
other  services  at the  request  of the Fund or the  Distributor.  The  Class A
service plan permits  reimbursements to the Distributor at a rate of up to 0.25%
of average annual net assets of Class A shares.  The Distributor  makes payments
to recipients  periodically at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average
annual Class A share net assets held in the accounts of the  recipients or their
customers.

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

     For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 payments under the Class A plan
totaled  $1,357,304,  of which $2,968 was retained by the Distributor  under the
arrangement described above,  regarding  grandfathered  retirement accounts, and
included $135,911 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's  parent company. Any
unreimbursed  expenses the Distributor  incurs with respect to Class A shares in
any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years. The Distributor may not
use  payments  received  under  the  Class  A plan  to pay  any of its  interest
expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

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

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

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

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

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

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

     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 Trustees  may allow the Fund to continue  payments of the  asset-based  sales
charge  to  the  Distributor  for  distributing   shares  before  the  plan  was
terminated.

Payments to Fund Intermediaries

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Performance of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o The principal  value of the Fund's  shares,  its yields 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 Yields and total returns for any given past period  represent  historical
performance information and are not, and should not be considered,  a prediction
of future yields or 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 yields and 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.

     |X| Yields.  The Fund uses a variety of different  yields to illustrate its
current returns. Each class of shares calculates its yield separately because of
the different expenses that affect each class.

     o Standardized Yield. The "standardized  yield" (sometimes referred to just
as "yield") is shown for a class of shares for a stated 30-day period. It is not
based on actual  distributions  paid by the Fund to  shareholders  in the 30-day
period,  but is a hypothetical  yield based upon the net investment  income from
the Fund's portfolio  investments for that period.  It may therefore differ from
the "dividend yield" for the same class of shares, described below.


     Standardized  yield is calculated using the following  formula set forth in
rules  adopted by the SEC,  designed  to assure  uniformity  in the way that all
funds calculate their yields:

   Standardized Yield       = 2[(  a - b  +1)(6)    -1 ]
                                  --------
                                    cd

      The symbols above represent the following factors:
      a =  dividends and interest earned during the 30-day period.
      b =  expenses accrued for the period (net of any expense assumptions).
      c =  the average daily number of shares of that class outstanding during
           the 30-day period that were entitled to receive dividends.
      d =  the maximum offering price per share of that class on the last day
           of the period, adjusted for undistributed net investment income.

     The standardized  yield for a particular  30-day period may differ from the
yield for other periods. The SEC formula assumes that the standardized yield for
a 30-day  period  occurs  at a  constant  rate  for a  six-month  period  and is
annualized at the end of the six-month period. Additionally,  because each class
of shares is subject to different  expenses,  it is likely that the standardized
yields of the Fund's classes of shares will differ for any 30-day period.


     o Dividend Yield.  The Fund may quote a "dividend  yield" for each class of
its shares.  Dividend  yield is based on the dividends paid on a class of shares
during the actual dividend period. To calculate dividend yield, the dividends of
a class  declared  during a stated  period  are added  together,  and the sum is
multiplied by 12 (to  annualize  the yield) and divided by the maximum  offering
price on the last day of the dividend period. The formula is shown below:

         Dividend Yield = dividends paid x 12/maximum offering price (payment date)

     The maximum  offering price for Class A shares includes the current maximum
initial sales charge.  The maximum offering price for Class B, Class C and Class
N shares is the net asset  value per share,  without  considering  the effect of
contingent  deferred sales charges.  There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.
The Class A dividend  yield may also be quoted  without  deducting  the  maximum
initial sales charge.

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

     In calculating total returns for Class A shares,  the current maximum sales
charge of 4.75% (as a  percentage  of the offering  price) is deducted  from the
initial  investment  ("P" in the  formula  below)  (unless  the  return is shown
without sales charge,  as described below).  For Class B shares,  payment of the
applicable contingent deferred sales charge is applied,  depending on the period
for which the return is shown:  5.0% in the first year, 4.0% in the second year,
3.0% in the third and fourth  years,  2.0% in the fifth year,  1.0% in the sixth
year and none thereafter. For Class C shares, the 1.0% contingent deferred sales
charge is deducted for returns for the one-year period.  For Class N shares, the
1.0%  contingent  deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year
period,  and total returns for the periods prior to 03/01/01 (the inception date
for Class N shares) are based on the Fund's Class A returns, adjusted to reflect
the higher Class N 12b-1 fees. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

     Additional  information  is  presented  below about the methods that can be
used to buy shares of the Fund.  Appendix 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.

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

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

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

And the following money market funds:
Oppenheimer Cash Reserves                              Centennial Government Trust
Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund            Centennial Money Market Trust
Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.                    Centennial New York Tax Exempt Trust
Centennial California Tax Exempt Trust                 Centennial Tax Exempt Trust


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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



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


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

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


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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o to all trustee-to-trustee IRA transfers,

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

     o to Group  Retirement  Plans (as  defined in Appendix C to this SAI) which
have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor for that purpose,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     o A fund  account  that  has a  balance  below  $500  due to the  automatic
conversion of shares from Class B to Class A shares.  However,  once all Class B
shares held in the account have been converted to Class A shares the new account
balance may become subject to the Minimum Balance Fee;

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

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

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

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

     o Omnibus  accounts  holding  shares  pursuant to the  Pinnacle,  Ascender,
Custom Plus,  Record(k)eeper Pro and Pension Alliance  Retirement Plan programs;
and

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     (1) if last sale information is regularly reported,  they are valued at the
last reported sale price on the principal  exchange on which they are traded, on
that day, or

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Sell Shares

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

     Checkwriting.  When a check is  presented  to  United  Missouri  Bank  (the
"Bank") for clearance,  the Bank will ask the Fund to redeem a sufficient number
of full and fractional shares in the  shareholder's  account to cover the amount
of the check.  This enables the shareholder to continue  receiving  dividends on
those  shares  until  the check is  presented  to the  Fund.  Checks  may not be
presented for payment at the offices of the Bank or the Fund's  custodian  bank.
This limitation does not affect the use of checks for the payment of bills or to
obtain cash at other banks.  The Fund  reserves  the right to amend,  suspend or
discontinue offering checkwriting  privileges at any time. The Fund will provide
you notice whenever it is required to do so by applicable law.

     In choosing to take advantage of the Checkwriting privilege, by signing the
account  application or by completing a Checkwriting  card,  each individual who
signs:

(1)   for individual accounts, represents that they are the registered owner(s) of the
         shares of the Fund in that account;

     (2) for accounts for corporations, partnerships, trusts and other entities,
represents that they are an officer, general partner, trustee or other fiduciary
or agent,  as  applicable,  duly  authorized to act on behalf of the  registered
owner(s);

     (3)  authorizes the Fund, its Transfer Agent and any bank through which the
Fund's  drafts  (checks) are payable to pay all checks drawn on the Fund account
of such person(s) and to redeem a sufficient  amount of shares from that account
to cover payment of each check;

     (4)  specifically  acknowledges  that if they choose to permit checks to be
honored if there is a single  signature on checks drawn against joint  accounts,
or  accounts  for  corporations,  partnerships,  trusts or other  entities,  the
signature  of any one  signatory  on a check  will be  sufficient  to  authorize
payment of that check and redemption  from the account,  even if that account is
registered  in the  names of more than one  person  or more than one  authorized
signature appears on the Checkwriting card or the application, as applicable;

     (5)  understands  that the  Checkwriting  privilege  may be  terminated  or
amended at any time by the Fund and/or the Fund's bank; and

     (6)  acknowledges and agrees that neither the Fund nor its bank shall incur
any liability for that amendment or termination  of  checkwriting  privileges or
for redeeming shares to pay checks reasonably believed by them to be genuine, or
for returning or not paying checks that have not been accepted for any reason.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     Involuntary  Redemptions.  The Fund's  Board of  Trustees  has the right to
cause the  involuntary  redemption  of the  shares  held in any  account  if the
aggregate  net asset  value of those  shares is less than  $1,000 or such lesser
amount as the Board may fix. The Board will not cause the involuntary redemption
of shares in an  account if the  aggregate  net asset  value of such  shares has
fallen below the stated  minimum solely as a result of market  fluctuations.  If
the Board exercises this right, it may also fix the  requirements for any notice
to be given to the  shareholders in question (not less than 30 days).  The Board
may   alternatively  set  requirements  for  the  shareholder  to  increase  the
investment,  or set other terms and  conditions  so that the shares would not be
involuntarily redeemed.

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

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

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

     (1) state the reason for the distribution;

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


How to Exchange Shares

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

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

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

     o Class B and Class C shares of  Oppenheimer  Cash  Reserves are  generally
available  only by exchange  from the same class of shares of other  Oppenheimer
funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored 401(k) plans.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

     |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 might
require the  disposition  of portfolio  securities  at a time or at a price that
might be disadvantageous to the Fund, the Fund may refuse the request.

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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

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


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
OPPENHEIMER CORE BOND FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund (the "Fund"), a series of Oppenheimer Integrity
Funds, including the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2006, 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 the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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.
The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of
its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration
of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation
of securities owned as of December 31, 2006, by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we
performed other auditing procedures. 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 the
Fund as of December 31, 2006, 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.

STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS  Continued

FOOTNOTES TO STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS

1. Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate
security.

2. 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
Trustees. These securities amount to $51,178,138 or 3.58% of the Fund's net
assets as of December 31, 2006.

3. Illiquid security. The aggregate value of illiquid securities as of December
31, 2006 was $9,401,094, which represents 0.66% of the Fund's net assets. See
Note 7 of accompanying Notes.

4. When-issued security or forward commitment to be delivered and settled after
December 31, 2006. See Note 1 of accompanying Notes.

5. 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. These securities amount to $40,985,410 or 2.87% of the Fund's net assets
as of December 31, 2006.

6. Principal-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly principal
payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. The value of these securities
generally increases as interest rates decline and prepayment rates rise. The
price of these securities is typically more volatile than that of coupon-bearing
bonds of the same maturity. Interest rates disclosed represent current yields
based upon the current cost basis and estimated timing of future cash flows.
These securities amount to $4,051,321 or 0.28% of the Fund's net assets as of
December 31, 2006.

7. Zero coupon bond reflects effective yield on the date of purchase.

8. Partial or fully-loaned security. See Note 8 of accompanying Notes.

9. All or a portion of the security is held in collateralized accounts to cover
initial margin requirements on open futures contracts. The aggregate market
value of such securities is $4,205,398. See Note 5 of accompanying Notes.

10. Issuer is in default. Non-income producing security. See Note 1 of
accompanying Notes.

11. Interest or dividend is paid-in-kind, when applicable.

12. This bond has no contractual maturity date, is not redeemable and
contractually pays an indefinite stream of interest. Rate reported represents
the current interest rate for this variable rate security.

13. Non-income producing security.

14. Rate shown is the 7-day yield as of December 31, 2006.

15. Represents ownership of an affiliated fund, at or during the period ended
December 31, 2006. Transactions during the period in which the issuer was an
affiliate are as follows:

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

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

Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund (the Fund), is a separate fund of Oppenheimer
Integrity Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund's investment objective is
to seek total return by investing mainly in debt instruments. The Fund's
investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).

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

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

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






NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Continued

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

ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Fund's assets are
valued. Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded. Securities (including restricted
securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at
their fair value. Foreign and domestic securities whose values have been
materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event
occurring before the Fund's assets are valued but after the close of their
respective exchanges will be fair valued. Fair value is determined in good faith
using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of
Trustees. Investments in open-end registered investment companies (including
affiliated funds) are valued at that fund's net asset value. Short-term "money
market type" debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are
valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS OR FORWARD COMMITMENT. Delivery and payment
for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis or
forward commitment take place generally at least ten days 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 internally designated assets with a market value equal to or greater
than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a
when-issued basis or forward commitment may increase the volatility of the
Fund's net asset value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while
remaining substantially fully invested. The Fund may also sell securities that
it purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of
the original purchase. As of December 31, 2006, the Fund had purchased
$198,622,970 of securities issued on a when-issued basis or forward commitment
and sold $24,059,134 of securities issued on a when-issued basis or forward
commitment.

      In connection with its ability to purchase or sell 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 Fund
records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each
forward roll as realized gain (loss) on investments or as fee income in the case
of such transactions that have an associated fee in lieu of a difference in the
forward purchase and sale price.

      Risks 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 at redelivery as compared to the
securities sold to the counterparty; counterparty credit risk; and the potential
pay down speed variance between the mortgage-related pools.






- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITY CREDIT RISK. The Fund invests in high-yield securities, which may be
subject to a greater degree of credit risk, market fluctuations and loss of
income and principal, and may be more sensitive to economic conditions than
lower-yielding, higher-rated fixed-income securities. The Fund may acquire
securities in default, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose
issuers subsequently default. As of December 31, 2006, securities with an
aggregate market value of $2, representing less than 0.01% of the Fund's net
assets, were in default.

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

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

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

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other affiliated funds
advised by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading
accounts on a daily basis. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase
agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held
by a custodian bank until the






NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Continued

agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the
collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. In the
event of default by the other party to the agreement, retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENTS WITH OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK. The Fund enters into financial
instrument transactions (such as swaps, futures, options and other derivatives)
that may have off-balance sheet market risk. Off-balance sheet market risk
exists when the maximum potential loss on a particular financial instrument is
greater than the value of such financial instrument, as reflected in the Fund's
Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

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

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

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

1. As of December 31, 2006, the Fund had $12,437,027 of net capital loss
carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and
thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions. As of December 31, 2006,
details of the capital loss carryforwards were as follows:

2. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, the Fund did not utilize any
capital loss carryforward.

3. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the Fund did not utilize any
capital loss carryforward.






Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for
financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and
distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net
realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal
income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the
fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in
which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund. Accordingly, the
following amounts have been reclassified for December 31, 2006. Net assets of
the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of
unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes as of December 31, 2006 are noted below. The primary
difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and

or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation
deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer
receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to
receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the
Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar
amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds
selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for
deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment,
resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such
assets are included as a component of "Other" within the asset section of the
Statement of






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

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued

Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan will not
affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund's
assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred
until distributed in accordance to the Plan.

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

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

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

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

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

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADMINISTRATION SERVICE FEES. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year
for preparing and filing the Fund's tax returns.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays
OFS a per account fee. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Fund paid
$2,139,878 to OFS for services to the Fund.

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN (12b-1) FEES. Under its General Distributor's
Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor)
acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of
the Fund's classes of shares.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SERVICE PLAN FOR CLASS A SHARES. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for
services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made
periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets
of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees
to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for
providing personal services and maintenance of accounts of their customers that
hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with
respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent
periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plan are detailed in the Statement
of Operations.






- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS FOR CLASS B, CLASS C AND CLASS N SHARES. The Fund
has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
shares to compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the
distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the plans, the Fund
pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and
Class C shares and 0.25% on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a
service fee of up to 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B,
Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a
class, the Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether
the Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion
of the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold
prior to the effective date of such termination. The Distributor determines its
uncompensated expenses under the plan at calendar quarter ends. The
Distributor's aggregate uncompensated expenses under the plan at December 31,
2006 for Class B, Class C and Class N shares were $2,540,981, $2,472,256 and
$889,782, respectively. Fees incurred by the Fund under the plans are detailed
in the Statement of Operations.

prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the
Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on
the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period

WAIVERS AND REIMBURSEMENTS OF EXPENSES. Effective March 1, 2004, the Manager has
voluntarily undertaken to limit the "Total Expenses" for all classes of shares

exceed the following annual rates: 0.90% for the Class A shares; 1.65% for the
Class B and Class C shares, respectively; 1.15% for the Class N shares and 0.65%

4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Continued

      The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount
equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund's investment in
IMMF. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Manager waived $10,083 for
IMMF management fees.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FUTURES CONTRACTS

A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future
date. 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 protection from changes in market value of stocks 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 as a 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 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 has expired.

      Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open
futures contracts is noted in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
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 at the closing and expiration of futures
contracts. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is
reported in the Statement of Operations.

      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 December 31, 2006, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as follows:



                                                                                                   UNREALIZED

6. CREDIT DEFAULT SWAP CONTRACTS

Credit default swaps are designed to transfer the credit exposure of fixed
income products between counterparties. 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 a basket of securities. The Fund may take a short position
(purchaser of credit protection) or a long position (seller of credit
protection) in the credit default swap. Risks of credit default swaps include,
but are not limited to, 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 defaulted bonds depending on whether the Fund is long or short the swap,
respectively).

      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. As a purchaser of credit protection under a swap
contract, the Fund pays a periodic interest fee on the notional amount to the
counterparty. This interest fee is accrued daily as a component of unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized loss upon payment. Upon
occurrence of a specific credit event with respect to the underlying referenced
debt obligation, the Fund is obligated to deliver that security to the
counter-party in exchange for receipt of the notional amount from the
counterparty. The

6. CREDIT DEFAULT SWAP CONTRACTS Continued

difference between the value of the security delivered and the notional amount
received is recorded as realized gain and is included on the Statement of
Operations. Credit default swaps are marked to market daily using different
sources, including quotations from counterparties, pricing services, brokers or
market makers. The unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to the change
in the valuation of the notional amount of the swap is combined with the amount
due to (owed by) the Fund at termination or settlement and disclosed separately

The Fund would take a long position in the credit default swap note (the "funded
swap") to increase the exposure to specific high yield corporate issuers. As a
seller of credit protection under a swap contract, the Fund receives a periodic
interest fee on the notional amount from the counterparty. This interest fee is
accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is
recorded as realized gain upon receipt. Upon occurrence of a specific credit
event with respect to the underlying referenced debt obligation, the Fund
receives that security from the counterparty in exchange for payment of the
notional amount to the counterparty. The difference between the value of the
security received and the notional amount paid is recorded as realized loss and
is included on the Statement of Operations. Credit default swaps are marked to
market daily using different sources, including quotations from counterparties,
pricing services,





brokers or market makers. The unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to
the change in the valuation of the notional amount of the swap is combined with
the amount due to (owed by) the Fund at termination or settlement and disclosed
separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in this
amount is included on the Statement of Operations.

7. ILLIQUID SECURITIES

As of December 31, 2006, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available
market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
Fund will not invest more than 15% of its net assets (determined at the time of
purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. Securities that are
illiquid are marked with the applicable footnote on the Statement of
Investments.






NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Continued

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. SECURITIES LENDING

The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. In return, the Fund receives collateral in the form of
securities, letters of credit or cash, against the loaned securities and
maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the
loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned
securities is determined at the close of business each day. If the Fund is
undercollateralized at the close of business due to an increase in market value
of securities on loan, additional collateral is requested from the borrowing
counterparty and is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash
collateral may be invested in approved investments and the Fund bears the risk
of any loss in value of these investments. The Fund retains a portion of the
interest earned from the collateral. If the borrower defaults on its obligation
to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund
could experience delays and cost in recovering the securities loaned or in
gaining access to the collateral. The Fund continues to receive the economic
benefit of interest or dividends paid on the securities loaned in the form of a
substitute payment received from the borrower. As of December 31, 2006, the Fund
had on loan securities valued at $60,969,735, which are included in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities as "Investments, at value" and, when
applicable, as "Receivable for Investments sold." Cash collateral of $60,955,164
was received for the loans, all of which was subsequently invested in approved
instruments. In addition, collateral of $1,200,515 was also received in the form
of securities.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES.
FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an
enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109,
ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions
taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it
is "more-likely-than-not" that tax positions taken in the Fund's tax return will
be ultimately sustained. A tax liability and expense must be recorded in respect
of any tax position that, in Management's judgment, will not be fully realized.
FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. As of
December 31, 2006, the Manager has evaluated the implications of FIN 48 and does
not currently anticipate a material impact to the Fund's financial statements.
The Manager will continue to monitor the Fund's tax positions prospectively for
potential future impacts.

     In  September  2006,  the FASB issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS. This standard establishes a
single  authoritative  definition  of  fair  value,  sets  out a  framework  for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS
No. 157 applies to fair value  measurements  already  required or  permitted  by
existing  standards.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial  statements issued
for fiscal years  beginning  after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal  years.  As of December 31, 2006,  the Manager does not believe the
adoption of SFAS No. 157 will materially impact the financial statement amounts;
however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop
the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net
assets for the period.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. LITIGATION

A consolidated amended complaint was filed as a putative class action against
the Manager and the Transfer Agent and other defendants (including 51 of the
Oppenheimer funds including the Fund) in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York on January 10, 2005 and was amended on March 4,
2005. The complaint alleged, among other things, that the Manager charged
excessive fees for distribution and other costs, and that by permitting and/or
participating in those actions, the Directors/Trustees and the Officers of the
funds breached their fiduciary duties to fund shareholders under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 and at common law. The plaintiffs sought unspecified
damages, an accounting of all fees paid, and an award of attorneys' fees and
litigation expenses.

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

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

11. ACQUISITION OF OPPENHEIMER TOTAL RETURN BOND FUND

On March 23, 2006, the Fund acquired all of the net assets of Oppenheimer Total
Return Bond Fund, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved
by the Oppenheimer Total Return Bond Fund shareholders on March 15, 2006. The
Fund issued (at an exchange ratio of 0.964160 for Class A, 0.964242 for Class B,
0.962906 for Class C and 0.964275 for Class N of the Fund to one share of
Oppenheimer Total Return Bond Fund), 4,211,155; 481,162; 862,709 and 315,811
shares of beneficial interest for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N,
respectively, valued at $42,659,003, $4,874,168, $8,747,866 and $3,199,167 in
exchange for the net assets, resulting in combined Class A net assets of
$549,554,571, Class B net assets of $124,605,847, Class C net assets of
$122,287,022 and Class N net assets of $43,300,947 on March 23, 2006. The net
assets acquired included net unrealized depreciation of $949,524 and an unused
capital loss carryforward of $759,669, potential utilization subject to tax
limitations. The exchange qualified as a tax-free reorganization for federal
income tax purposes.

                                    RATINGS DEFINITIONS

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

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

LONG-TERM RATINGS: BONDS AND PREFERRED STOCK ISSUER RATINGS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

LONG-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS
Issue  credit  ratings  are  based in  varying  degrees,  on the  following
considerations:

     o Likelihood of payment-capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its
financial  commitment  on an  obligation  in  accordance  with the  terms of the
obligation;

     o Nature of and provisions of the obligation; and

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

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

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

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

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

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

 BB, B, CCC, CC, and C

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

N.R. Not rated.

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

Bond Investment Quality Standards

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

SHORT-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS

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

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

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

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

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

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

NOTES:

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

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

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

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

Fitch, Inc.

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

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

Investment Grade:

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

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

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

Speculative Grade:

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


     D: Default. Denotes actual or imminent payment default.

                                         Appendix C

               OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

     In certain  cases,  the initial  sales  charge that applies to purchases of
Class A shares(1) 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  the  purposes  of  some  of the  waivers  described  below  and in the
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of the applicable Oppenheimer
funds, the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of plans:

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

     2) non-qualified deferred compensation plans,

     3) employee benefit plans(3)

     4) Group Retirement Plans(4)

     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,  prior to March 1, 2007,  by a Retirement
Plan that was  permitted to purchase  such shares at net asset value but subject
to a contingent  deferred  sales charge  prior to March 1, 2001.  That  included
plans  (other than IRA or 403(b)(7)  Custodial  Plans)  that:  1) bought  shares
costing  $500,000 or more,  2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more  eligible
employees  or total plan  assets of  $500,000 or more,  or 3)  certified  to the
Distributor that it projects to have annual plan purchases of $200,000 or more.

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

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

     2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified  Retirement Plan
if the  administrator  of that  Plan  has  made  special  arrangements  with the
Distributor for those purchases.

     |_|  Purchases of Class A shares by  Retirement  Plans that have any of the
following record-keeping arrangements:

     1) The record  keeping is  performed by Merrill  Lynch Pierce  Fenner &
Smith,  Inc.  ("Merrill  Lynch") on a daily  valuation  basis for the Retirement
Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the  record-keeping  service  agreement
with Merrill Lynch, the Plan must have $3 million or more of its assets invested
in (a)  mutual  funds,  other than  those  advised  or managed by Merrill  Lynch
Investment  Management,  L.P. ("MLIM"),  that are made available under a Service
Agreement  between Merrill Lynch and the mutual fund's principal  underwriter or
distributor,  and (b) funds  advised or managed by MLIM (the funds  described in
(a) and (b) are referred to as "Applicable Investments").

     2) The record  keeping  for the  Retirement  Plan is  performed  on a daily
valuation  basis by a record keeper whose services are provided under a contract
or arrangement  between the Retirement  Plan and Merrill Lynch.  On the date the
plan sponsor signs the record keeping service  agreement with Merrill Lynch, the
Plan must have $5 million or more of its assets  (excluding  assets  invested in
money market funds) invested in Applicable Investments.

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



                 Waivers of Class A Sales Charges of Oppenheimer Funds


     A. Waivers of Initial and  Contingent  Deferred  Sales  Charges for Certain
Purchasers.

     Class A shares purchased by the following  investors are not subject to any
Class A sales charges (and no  concessions  are paid by the  Distributor on such
purchases):

     |_| The Manager or its affiliates.

     |_| Present or former  officers,  directors,  trustees and  employees  (and
their  "immediate  families") of the Fund, the Manager and its  affiliates,  and
retirement plans  established by them for their  employees.  The term "immediate
family" refers to one's spouse, children, grandchildren,  grandparents, parents,
parents-in-law,  brothers and sisters,  sons- and daughters-in-law,  a sibling's
spouse, a spouse's siblings,  aunts,  uncles,  nieces and nephews;  relatives by

     |_| Registered  management  investment  companies,  or separate accounts of
insurance  companies having an agreement with the Manager or the Distributor for
that purpose.

     |_| Dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
they purchase  shares for their own accounts or for  retirement  plans for their
employees.

     |_| Employees and registered representatives (and their spouses) of dealers
or brokers  described  above or  financial  institutions  that have entered into
sales  arrangements  with such dealers or brokers (and which are  identified  as
such to the Distributor) or with the Distributor.  The purchaser must certify to
the Distributor at the time of purchase that the purchase is for the purchaser's
own account (or for the benefit of such employee's spouse or minor children).

     |_| Dealers,  brokers,  banks or registered  investment  advisors that have
entered into an agreement with the Distributor  providing  specifically  for the
use of shares of the Fund in particular  investment  products made  available to
their clients.  Those clients may be charged a transaction  fee by their dealer,
broker, bank or advisor for the purchase or sale of Fund shares.

     |_|  Investment  advisors and  financial  planners who have entered into an
agreement  for this  purpose  with the  Distributor  and who charge an advisory,
consulting or other fee for their services and buy shares for their own accounts
or the accounts of their clients.

     |_| "Rabbi trusts" that buy shares for their own accounts, if the purchases
are made through a broker or agent or other financial intermediary that has made
special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.

     |_| Clients of investment advisors or financial planners (that have entered
into an  agreement  for this purpose  with the  Distributor)  who buy shares for
their own accounts may also  purchase  shares  without  sales charge but only if
their  accounts are linked to a master  account of their  investment  advisor or
financial  planner on the books and  records of the broker,  agent or  financial
intermediary  with which the  Distributor  has made such special  arrangements .
Each of these  investors may be charged a fee by the broker,  agent or financial
intermediary for purchasing shares.

     |_| Directors,  trustees, officers or full-time employees of OpCap Advisors
or its  affiliates,  their  relatives or any trust,  pension,  profit sharing or
other benefit plan which beneficially owns shares for those persons.

     |_|  Accounts  for which  Oppenheimer  Capital  (or its  successor)  is the
investment  advisor (the  Distributor  must be advised of this  arrangement) and
persons  who are  directors  or  trustees  of the  company or trust which is the
beneficial owner of such accounts.

     |_| A unit investment trust that has entered into an appropriate  agreement
with the Distributor.

     |_| Dealers,  brokers,  banks, or registered  investment advisers that have
entered  into an  agreement  with the  Distributor  to sell  shares  to  defined
contribution   employee  retirement  plans  for  which  the  dealer,  broker  or
investment adviser provides administration services.

Oppenheimer  funds at a maximum  sales charge rate of 4.50%.  VII.  Sales Charge
Waivers on Purchases  of Class M Shares of  Oppenheimer  Convertible  Securities
Fund


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

     |_| the Manager and its affiliates,

     |_| present or former  officers,  directors,  trustees and  employees  (and
their  "immediate  families" as defined in the Fund's  Statement  of  Additional
Information) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates,  and retirement  plans
established  by them or the  prior  investment  advisor  of the Fund  for  their
employees,

     |_|  registered  management  investment  companies or separate  accounts of
insurance  companies  that had an  agreement  with the Fund's  prior  investment
advisor or distributor for that purpose,

     |_| dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
they purchase  shares for their own accounts or for  retirement  plans for their
employees,

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

     |_| dealers,  brokers,  or registered  investment advisors that had entered
into an agreement  with the  Distributor  or the prior  distributor  of the Fund
specifically  providing  for the use of Class M shares  of the Fund in  specific
investment products made available to their clients, and

     |_| dealers,  brokers or  registered  investment  advisors that had entered
into an agreement with the Distributor or prior distributor of the Fund's shares
to sell shares to defined  contribution  employee retirement plans for which the
dealer, broker, or investment advisor provides administrative services.



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

     (2).   Certain  waivers  also  apply  to  Class  M  shares  of  Oppenheimer
Convertible Securities Fund.

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

     (4). An "employee  benefit plan" means any plan or arrangement,  whether or
not it is  "qualified"  under the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  under which Class N
shares of an  Oppenheimer  fund or funds are  purchased  by a fiduciary or other
administrator  for the account of  participants  who are  employees  of a single
employer or of affiliated  employers.  These may include,  for example,  medical
savings  accounts,  payroll  deduction plans or similar plans. The fund accounts
must be registered in the name of the fiduciary or administrator  purchasing the
shares for the benefit of participants in the plan.

     (5). The term "Group  Retirement Plan" means any qualified or non-qualified
retirement plan for employees of a corporation or sole  proprietorship,  members
and  employees of a  partnership  or  association  or other  organized  group of
persons (the members of which may include other  groups),  if the group has made
special  arrangements  with  the  Distributor  and  all  members  of  the  group
participating  in (or who are  eligible  to  participate  in) the plan  purchase
shares  of an  Oppenheimer  fund or funds  through a single  investment  dealer,
broker or other  financial  institution  designated  by the  group.  Such  plans
include 457 plans, SEP-IRAs,  SARSEPs,  SIMPLE plans and 403(b) plans other than
plans for  public  school  employees.  The term  "Group  Retirement  Plan"  also
includes  qualified  retirement plans and  non-qualified  deferred  compensation
plans and IRAs that purchase  shares of an  Oppenheimer  fund or funds through a
single investment  dealer,  broker or other financial  institution that has made
special arrangements with the Distributor.

     (6).  However,  that  concession will not be paid on purchases of shares in
amounts  of $1  million  or more  (including  any  right of  accumulation)  by a
Retirement Plan that pays for the purchase with the redemption proceeds of Class
C shares  of one or more  Oppenheimer  funds  held by the Plan for more than one
year.

     (7). This provision does not apply to IRAs.

     (8).  This  provision  only  applies  to  qualified  retirement  plans  and
403(b)(7)  custodial  plans after your  separation  from service in or after the
year you reached age 55.

     (9). The  distribution  must be requested prior to Plan  termination or the
elimination of the Oppenheimer funds as an investment option under the Plan.

     (10). This provision does not apply to IRAs.

     (11). This provision does not apply to loans from 403(b)(7) custodial plans
and loans from the OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Single K retirement plan.

     (12).  This  provision does not apply to 403(b)(7)  custodial  plans if the
participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
