The following "Appendix A" is added to the Prospectus after the section entitled "Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes": APPENDIX A Special Sales Charge Arrangements for Shareholders of the Fund Who Were Shareholders of the Former Quest for Value Funds The initial and contingent sales charge rates and waivers for Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund described elsewhere in this Prospectus are modified as described below for those shareholders of (i) Quest for Value Fund, Inc., Quest for Value Growth and Income Fund, Quest for Value Opportunity Fund, Quest for Value Small Capitalization Fund and Quest for Value Global Equity Fund, Inc. on November 24, 1995, when OppenheimerFunds, Inc. became the investment adviser to those funds, and (ii) Quest for Value U.S. Government Income Fund, Quest for Value Investment Quality Income Fund, Quest for Value Global Income Fund, Quest for Value New York Tax-Exempt Fund, Quest for Value National Tax-Exempt Fund and Quest for Value California Tax-Exempt Fund when those funds merged into various Oppenheimer funds on November 24, 1995. The funds listed above are referred to in this Prospectus as the "Former Quest for Value Funds." The waivers of initial and contingent deferred sales charges described in this Appendix apply to shares of the Fund (i) acquired by such shareholder pursuant to an exchange of shares of one of the Oppenheimer funds that was one of the Former Quest for Value Funds or (ii) received by such shareholder pursuant to the merger of any of the Former Quest for Value Funds into an Oppenheimer fund on November 24, 1995. Class A Sales Charges - - Reduced Class A Initial Sales Charge Rates for Certain Former Quest Shareholders - - Purchases by Groups, Associations and Certain Qualified Retirement Plans. The following table sets forth the initial sales charge rates for Class A shares purchased by a "Qualified Retirement Plan" through a single broker, dealer or financial institution, or by members of "Associations" formed for any purpose other than the purchase of securities if that Qualified Retirement Plan or that Association purchased shares of any of the Former Quest for Value Funds or received a proposal to purchase such shares from OCC Distributors prior to November 24, 1995. For this purpose only, a "Qualified Retirement Plan" includes any 401(k) plan, 403(b) plan, and SEP/IRA or IRA plan for employees of a single employer.
Front-End Front-End Sales Sales Commission Charge Charge as as a as a Percentage Number of Percentage Percentage of Eligible Employees of Offering of Amount Offering or Members Price Invested Price 9 or fewer 2.50% 2.56% 2.00% At least 10 but not more than 49 2.00% 2.04% 1.60%
For purchases by Qualified Retirement plans and Associations having 50 or more eligible employees or members, there is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares, but those shares are subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge described on pages 29 to 30 of this Prospectus. Purchases made under this arrangement qualify for the lower of the sales charge rate in the table based on the number of eligible employees in a Qualified Retirement Plan or members of an Association or the sales charge rate that applies under the Rights of Accumulation described above in the Prospectus. In addition, purchases by 401(k) plans that are Qualified Retirement Plans qualify for the waiver of the Class A initial sales charge if they qualified to purchase shares of any of the Former Quest For Value Funds by virtue of projected contributions or investments of $1 millon or more each year. Individuals who qualify under this arrangement for reduced sales charge rates as members of Associations, or as eligible employees in Qualified Retirement Plans also may purchase shares for their individual or custodial accounts at these reduced sales charge rates, upon request to the Fund's Distributor. - - Special Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge Rates Class A shares of the Fund purchased by exchange of shares of other Oppenheimer funds that were acquired as a result of the merger of Former Quest for Value Funds into those Oppenheimer Funds, and which shares were subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales charge prior to November 24, 1995 will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge at the following rates: if they are redeemed within 18 months of the end of the calendar month in which they were purchased, at a rate equal to 1.0% if the redemption occurs within 12 months of their initial purchase and at a rate of 0.50 of 1.0% if the redemption occurs in the subsequent six months. Class A shares of any of the Former Quest Fund for Value Funds purchased without an initial sales charge on or before November 22, 1995 will continue to be subject to the applicable contingent deferred sales charge in effect as of that date as set forth in the then-current prospectus for such fund. - - Waiver of Class A Sales Charges for Certain Shareholders Class A shares of the Fund purchased by the following investors are not subject to any Class A initial or contingent deferred sales charges: - Shareholders of the Fund who were shareholders of the AMA Family of Funds on February 28, 1991 and who acquired shares of any of the Former Quest for Value Funds by merger of a portfolio of the AMA Family of Funds. - Shareholders of the Fund who acquired shares of any Former Quest for Value Fund by merger of any of the portfolios of the Unified Funds. - - Waiver of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge in Certain Transactions The Class A contingent deferred sales charge will not apply to redemptions of Class A shares of the Fund purchased by the following investors who were shareholders of any Former Quest for Value Fund: - Investors who purchased Class A shares from a dealer that is or was not permitted to receive a sales load or redemption fee imposed on a shareholder with whom that dealer has a fiduciary relationship under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and regulations adopted under that law. - Participants in Qualified Retirement Plans that purchased shares of any of the Former Quest For Value Funds pursuant to a special "strategic alliance" with the distributor of those funds.
