Supplement dated April 3, 2009
to the Prospectus dated April 29, 2008

This supplement amends the Prospectus of Oppenheimer Balanced Fund/VA (the "Fund") dated April 29, 2008. It replaces the supplement dated March 31, 2009. The Prospectus is revised as follows:

1.     

The section titled "How the Fund is Managed - Advisory Fees" on page 11 is deleted in its entirety and is replaced with the following:


Advisory Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager an advisory fee at an annual rate that declines on additional assets as the Fund grows: 0.75% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets, 0.72% of the next $200 million, 0.69% of the next $200 million, 0.66% of the next $200 million, and 0.60% of average annual net assets over $800 million. The Fund's management fee for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, was 0.72% of the Fund's average annual net assets for each class of shares.
 

Effective September 1, 2007 the Manager voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fee and/or reimburse certain expenses so that the total expenses of the Fund will not exceed 0.92% of average annual net assets for Service Shares and 0.67% of average annual net assets for Non-Service Shares. This voluntary waiver and/or reimbursement may be withdrawn at any time.

Effective April 1, 2009, the Manager has agreed to voluntarily waive the advisory fee by 0.08% of the Fund's average daily net assets through March 31, 2010. This voluntary waiver will be applied after all other waivers and/or reimbursements and may be withdrawn at any time.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees' approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract is available in the Fund's Annual Report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2008.
