ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

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

         |X|  Investments  in Equity  Securities.  The Fund may invest in equity  securities  of  companies  in any
market  capitalization range. Equity securities include common stocks,  preferred stocks, rights and warrants,  and
securities  convertible  into common stock.  The Fund's  investments  will  primarily  include  stocks of companies
having a market  capitalization  of up to $2.5 billion,  generally  measured at the time of the Fund's  investment.
However, the Fund is not required to sell securities it holds of an issuer if the issuer's  capitalization  exceeds
$2.5 billion.

         The Fund  can  also  hold a  portion  of its  assets  in  securities  of  issuers  having a larger  market
capitalization.  At times,  in the  Manager's  view,  the market may favor or disfavor  securities  of issuers of a
particular  capitalization range.  Therefore the Fund may focus its equity investments in securities of one or more
capitalization  ranges,  based upon the Manager's  judgment of where the best market  opportunities are to seek the
Fund's objective.

         Current income is not a criterion used to select portfolio  securities.  However,  certain debt securities
may be selected for the Fund's  portfolio  for  defensive  purposes  (including  debt  securities  that the Manager
believes may offer some opportunities for capital  appreciation when stocks are disfavored).  Other debt securities
may be selected because they are convertible into common stock, as discussed below in "Convertible Securities."

                  |_|  Over-the-Counter  Securities.  Securities  of small  capitalization  issuers  may  traded on
securities  exchanges  or in the  over-the-counter  market.  The  over-the-counter  markets,  both in the U.S.  and
abroad,  may have less liquidity than  securities  exchanges.  That can affect the price the Fund is able to obtain
when it wants to sell a security.

         Small-cap growth companies may offer greater  opportunities  for capital  appreciation  than securities of
large, more established  companies.  However, these securities also involve greater risks than securities of larger
companies.  Securities of small  capitalization  issuers may be subject to greater price volatility in general than
securities of large-cap and mid-cap  companies.  Therefore,  to the degree that the Fund has investments in smaller
capitalization  companies  at times of market  volatility,  the Fund's  share price may  fluctuate  more.  As noted
below, the Fund limits its investments in unseasoned small cap issuers.

                  ? Convertible  Securities.  While some  convertible  securities  are a form of debt security,  in
many 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 has less impact on the
Manager's  investment  decision with respect to convertible  debt  securities  than in the case of  non-convertible
fixed income securities.  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.

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

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

         The Fund has no limitations on the ratings of the  convertible  debt  securities that it can buy. They can
include  securities that are investment  grade or below  investment  grade.  Securities  that are below  investment
grade (whether they are rated by a  nationally-recognized  rating  organization or are unrated  securities that the
Manager  deems to be below  investment  grade) have greater  risks of default  than  investment  grade  securities.
Additionally,  debt  securities  are subject to interest rate risk.  Their values tend to fall when interest  rates
rise.  The Fund does not  anticipate  that it will  invest a  substantial  amount of its  assets in these  types of
securities.

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

                  ? Preferred  Stock.  Preferred  stock,  unlike common stock,  has a stated  dividend rate payable
from the  corporation's  earnings.  Preferred  stock  dividends may be cumulative or  non-cumulative.  "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 can also have a negative  impact on prices when interest
rates  decline.  Preferred  stock  generally  has  a  preference  over  common  stock  on  the  distribution  of  a
corporation's assets in the event of liquidation of the corporation.  The rights of preferred stock on distribution
of a corporation's  assets in the event of a liquidation are generally  subordinate to the rights associated with a
corporation's debt securities.

         ? Foreign  Securities.  The Fund can purchase equity securities issued or guaranteed by foreign companies.
"Foreign  securities"  include equity and debt securities of companies  organized under the laws of countries other
than the United  States.  They may be traded on foreign  securities  exchanges  or in the foreign  over-the-counter
markets.

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

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

                  |_|?  Risks  of  Foreign   Investing.   Investments  in  foreign  securities  may  offer  special
opportunities for investing but also present special additional risks and  considerations not typically  associated
with investments in domestic securities. Some of these additional risks are:
o        reduction of income by foreign taxes;
o        fluctuation  in value of  foreign  investments  due to  changes  in  currency  rates or  currency  control
             regulations (for example, currency blockage);
o        transaction charges for currency exchange;
o        lack of public information about foreign issuers;
o        lack of uniform accounting,  auditing and financial  reporting  standards in foreign countries  comparable
             to those applicable to domestic issuers;
o        less volume on foreign exchanges than on U.S. exchanges;
o        greater volatility and less liquidity on foreign markets than in the U.S.;
o        less governmental regulation of foreign issuers, stock exchanges and brokers than in the U.S.;
o        greater difficulties in commencing lawsuits;
o        higher brokerage commission rates than in the U.S.;
o        increased risks of delays in settlement of portfolio  transactions  or loss of certificates  for portfolio
             securities;
o        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.

                  |_| Special Risks of Emerging  Markets.  Emerging and  developing  markets  abroad may also offer
special  opportunities  for growth 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.

         ? 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%  annually.  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 creates higher brokerage and transaction costs for the Fund,
which may reduce its overall  performance.  Additionally,  the realization of capital gains from selling  portfolio
securities may result in distributions  of taxable  long-term  capital gains to  shareholders,  since the Fund will
normally  distribute all of its capital gains realized each year, to avoid excise taxes under the Internal  Revenue
Code.

Other  Investment  Techniques and Strategies.  In seeking its objective,  the Fund from time to time can employ 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.

         ? Investing in Small,  Unseasoned Companies.  The Fund can invest in securities of companies in any market
capitalization range,  including small,  unseasoned companies.  These are companies that have been in operation for
less than three years,  including the operations of any predecessors.  Securities of these companies may be subject
to volatility in their prices.  They might have a limited trading market,  which could adversely  affect the Fund's
ability to dispose of them and could  reduce the price the Fund might be able to obtain for them.  Other  investors
that own a security  issued by a small,  unseasoned  issuer for which  there is limited  liquidity  might trade the
security  when the Fund is  attempting  to dispose of its  holdings of that  security.  In that case the Fund might
receive a lower price for its holdings  than might  otherwise be obtained.  The Fund  currently  does not intend to
invest more than 10% of its net assets in those securities.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         ? Loans of Portfolio  Securities.  To raise cash for liquidity  purposes,  the Fund can lend its portfolio
securities  to  brokers,  dealers  and other  types of  financial  institutions  approved  by the  Fund's  Board of
Trustees.  These  loans  are  limited  to not more  than 25% of the  value of the  Fund's  total  assets.  The Fund
currently  does not intend to engage in loans of  securities,  but if it does so, such loans will not likely exceed
5% of the Fund's total assets.

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

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

         ? Borrowing  for Leverage.  The Fund has the ability to borrow from banks on an unsecured  basis to invest
the borrowed  funds in portfolio  securities.  This  speculative  technique  is known as  "leverage."  The Fund may
borrow only from banks. Under current regulatory  requirements,  borrowings can be made only to the extent that the
value  of the  Fund's  assets,  less its  liabilities  other  than  borrowings,  is  equal to at least  300% of all
borrowings  (including  the proposed  borrowing).  If the value of the Fund's  assets fails to meet this 300% asset
coverage requirement,  the Fund will reduce its bank debt within three days to meet the requirement.  To do so, the
Fund might have to sell a portion of its investments at a disadvantageous time.

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

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

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

         ? Hedging.  Although the Fund does not anticipate the extensive use of hedging  instruments,  the Fund can
use them.  It is not required to do so in seeking its goal.  To attempt to protect  against  declines in the market
value of the Fund's portfolio,  to permit the Fund to retain unrealized gains in the value of portfolio  securities
which have appreciated, or to facilitate selling securities for investment reasons, the Fund could:
         ?    sell futures contracts,
         ?    buy puts on such futures or on securities, or
         ?    write  covered calls on  securities  or futures.  Covered calls can also be used to seek income,  but
              the Manager does not expect to engage extensively in that practice.

         The Fund can use hedging to establish a position in the  securities  market as a temporary  substitute for
purchasing  particular  securities.  In that case the Fund would  normally seek to purchase the securities and then
terminate  that  hedging  position.  The Fund might also use this type of hedge to attempt to protect  against  the
possibility that its portfolio  securities  would not be fully included in a rise in value of the market.  To do so
the Fund could:
         ?    buy futures, or
         ?    buy calls on such futures or on securities.
         The Fund's  strategy  of hedging  with  futures and options on futures  will be  incidental  to the Fund's
activities  in the  underlying  cash market.  The  particular  hedging  instruments  the Fund can use are described
below.  The Fund may employ new hedging  instruments  and strategies when they are developed,  if those  investment
methods are consistent  with the Fund's  investment  objective and are  permissible  under  applicable  regulations
governing the Fund.

                  ? Futures.  The Fund can buy and sell futures  contracts that relate to (1)  broadly-based  stock
indices (these are referred to as "stock index futures"),  (2) other  broadly-based  securities  indices (these are
referred to as "financial  futures"),  (3) debt securities (these are referred to as "interest rate futures"),  (4)
foreign  currencies (these are referred to as "forward  contracts"),  and (5) commodities (these are referred to as
"commodity 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 common stocks  included in the index and its value  fluctuates in response to the changes in
value of the underlying  stocks. A stock index cannot be purchased or sold directly.  Financial futures are similar
contracts based on the future value of the basket of securities that comprise the index.  These contracts  obligate
the seller to deliver,  and the  purchaser to take,  cash to settle the futures  transaction.  There is no delivery
made of the underlying  securities to settle the futures  obligation.  Either party may also settle the transaction
by entering into an offsetting contract.

         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.

         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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         When writing a put option on a security,  to secure its obligation to pay for the underlying  security the
Fund will  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.

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

         The Fund can buy puts whether or not it holds the underlying  investment in its  portfolio.  When the Fund
purchases  a put,  it pays a premium  and,  except  as to puts on  indices,  has the  right to sell the  underlying
investment to a seller of a put on a corresponding investment during the put period at a fixed exercise price.

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

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

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

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

                  ? 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
maintaining  cash,  U.S.  government  securities or other liquid,  high-grade debt securities in an amount equal to
the exercise price of the option, in a segregated account with the Fund's custodian bank.

                  ? 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.

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

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

         The Fund can 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.  The Fund will not
enter into forward  contracts or maintain a net exposure to such  contracts if the  consummation  of the  contracts
would  obligate  the Fund to deliver an amount of foreign  currency in excess of the value of the Fund's  portfolio
securities or other assets denominated in that currency or another currency that is the subject of the hedge.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

         Under 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.

                  ? 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.

         ? Temporary  Defensive  Investments.  When market  conditions are unstable,  or the Manager believes it is
otherwise  appropriate  to reduce  holdings  in stocks,  the Fund can invest in a variety  of debt  securities  for
defensive  purposes.  The Fund can also purchase these securities for liquidity  purposes to meet cash needs due to
the  redemption  of Fund  shares,  or to hold  while  waiting  to  reinvest  cash  received  from the sale of other
portfolio securities. The Fund can buy:
|_|      high-quality (rated in the top rating categories of  nationally-recognized  rating organizations or deemed
              by the Manager to be of comparable  quality),  short-term money market  instruments,  including those
              issued by the U. S. Treasury or other government agencies,
|_|      commercial paper (short-term,  unsecured,  promissory notes of domestic or foreign companies) rated in the
              top rating category of a nationally recognized rating organization,
|_|      debt obligations of corporate  issuers,  rated  investment grade (rated at least Baa by Moody's  Investors
              Service,  Inc. or at least BBB by Standard & Poor's  Corporation,  or a comparable  rating by another
              rating  organization),  or unrated  securities judged by the Manager to have a comparable  quality to
              rated securities in those categories,
|_|      preferred stocks,
|_|      certificates  of deposit  and  bankers'  acceptances  of domestic  and foreign  banks and savings and loan
              associations, and
|_|      repurchase agreements.

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

Investment Restrictions

         ? What Are "Fundamental  Policies?"  Fundamental  policies are those policies that the Fund has adopted to
govern its  investments  that can be changed  only by the vote of a  "majority"  of the Fund's  outstanding  voting
securities.  Under the  Investment  Company  Act, a  "majority"  vote is defined as the vote of the  holders of the
lesser of:
         ?    67% or more of the shares present or represented  by proxy at a shareholder  meeting,  if the holders
              of more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or
         ?    more than 50% of the outstanding shares.

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

         ? 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.  The limit does not apply to securities issued by the U.S.  government or any of its agencies or
instrumentalities.

         ? The Fund cannot invest in companies for the purpose of acquiring control or management of them.

         ? The Fund cannot lend money.  However,  it can invest in publicly  distributed  debt  securities that the
Fund's  investment  policies  and  restrictions  permit  it to  purchase.  The  Fund may  also  lend its  portfolio
securities and enter into repurchase agreements.

         ? The Fund cannot  concentrate  investments.  That means it cannot  invest 25% or more of its total assets
in companies in any one industry.  Obligations of the U.S. government,  its agencies and  instrumentalities are not
considered to be part of an "industry" for the purposes of this restriction.

         ? The  Fund  cannot  purchase  securities  on  margin.  However,  the Fund may  make  margin  deposits  in
connection with any of the hedging instruments permitted by any of its other fundamental policies.

         ? The Fund cannot  invest in real estate or in interests in real  estate.  However,  the Fund can purchase
readily-marketable securities of companies holding real estate or interests in real estate.

         ? The Fund cannot make short sales of securities except "short sales against-the-box."

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

         ? The Fund cannot  invest in or hold  securities  of any issuer if officers  and  Trustees or directors of
the Fund or the Manager  individually  beneficially  own more than 1/2 of 1% of the  securities  of that issuer and
together own more than 5% of the securities of that issuer.

         ? The Fund cannot invest in other open-end  investment  companies or invest more than 5% of its net assets
in closed-end  investment companies,  including small business investment companies.  The Fund cannot make any such
investment at commission rates in excess of normal brokerage commissions.

         ? The Fund cannot invest in interests in oil, gas or other mineral exploration or development programs.

         ? The Fund cannot pledge,  mortgage or hypothecate any of its assets.  However, this does not prohibit the
escrow  arrangements  contemplated  by the put and  call  activities  of the  Fund or other  collateral  or  margin
arrangements in connection with any of the hedging instruments permitted by any of its other policies.

         |_| 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 derivates, hedging instruments, options or futures.

         Another  fundamental  policy  adopted by the Fund permits it to invest all of its assets in the securities
of a single open-end  management  investment company for which the Manager,  one of its subsidiaries or a successor
is the  investment  adviser or  sub-adviser.  That fund must have  substantially  the same  fundamental  investment
objective,  policies and  limitations  as the Fund.  This policy  would permit the Fund to adopt a  "master-feeder"
structure.  Under that structure,  the Fund would be a "feeder" fund and would invest all of its assets in a single
pooled  "master fund" in which other feeder funds could also invest.  This could enable the Fund to take  advantage
of potential  operational and cost efficiencies in the master-feeder  structure.  The Fund has no present intention
of  adopting  the  master-feeder  structure.  If it did  so,  the  Prospectus  and  this  Statement  of  Additional
Information would be revised accordingly.

         Unless the Prospectus or this  Statement of Additional  Information  states that a percentage  restriction
applies on an on-going  basis,  it applies  only at the time the Fund makes an  investment.  The Fund need not sell
securities  to meet the  percentage  limits if the value of the  investment  increases in proportion to the size of
the Fund.

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

How the Fund is Managed

Organization and History.  The Fund is an open-end,  diversified  management  investment  company with an unlimited
number of authorized  shares of beneficial  interest.  The Fund was organized as a Massachusetts  business trust in
1995.

         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.  Although the Fund will not normally
hold  annual  meetings  of its  shareholders,  it may hold  shareholder  meetings  from  time to time on  important
matters,  and  shareholders  have the right to call a meeting to remove a Trustee or to take other action described
in the Fund's Declaration of Trust.

         |X| Classes of Shares.  The Board of  Trustees  has the power,  without  shareholder  approval,  to divide
unissued  shares of the Fund into two or more  classes.  The Board  has done so,  and the Fund  currently  has five
classes of  shares:  Class A, Class B,  Class C,  Class N and Class Y. All  classes  invest in the same  investment
portfolio.  Only retirement plans may purchase Class N shares.  Only certain  institutional  investors may elect to
purchase Class Y shares.  Each class of shares:
o        has its own dividends and distributions,
o        pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes,
o        may have a different net asset value,
o        may have separate  voting rights on matters in which  interests of one class are different  from interests
             of another class, and
o        votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone.

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

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

         |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.  The Fund will hold meetings when required to do
so by the Investment  Company Act or other applicable law. It will also do so when a shareholder  meeting is called
by the Trustees or upon proper request of the shareholders.

         Shareholders  have the right,  upon the  declaration  in writing or vote of two-thirds of the  outstanding
shares of the Fund, to remove a Trustee.  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,  whichever is less.
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.  Additionally,  the Trustees
shall have no personal liability to any such person to the extent permitted by law.

  Committees of the Board of Trustees.  The Board of Trustees has an Audit  Committee,  a Study Committee and
a Proxy  Committee.  The members of the Audit  Committee  are Kenneth A. Randall,  Benjamin  Lipstein and Edward V.
Regan.  The Audit  Committee  held ______  meetings  during the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31, 2001. The Audit
Committee provides the Board with  recommendations  regarding the selection of the Fund's independent  auditor. The
Audit  Committee  also reviews the scope and results of audits and the audit fees charged and reviews  reports from
the Fund's independent auditor concerning the Fund's internal accounting procedures and controls.

              The  members  of the Study  Committee  are  Robert G.  Galli,  Benjamin  Lipstein  and  Elizabeth  B.
Moynihan.  The Study  Committee held  __________  meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31, 2001. The
Study  Committee  evaluates  and  reports  to the  Board  on the  Fund's  contractual  arrangements  including  the
Investment  Advisory and  Distribution  Agreements,  transfer  and  shareholder  agency  agreements  and  custodian
agreements as well as the policies and  procedures  adopted by the Fund to comply with the  Investment  Company Act
of 1940 and other applicable law.
The members of the Proxy  Committee  are Edward V. Regan,  Russell S.  Reynolds,  Jr. and Clayton K.  Yeutter.  The
Proxy Committee held  __________  meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31, 2001. The Proxy Committee
provides the Board with recommendations for proxy voting and monitors proxy voting by the Fund.

          |X|  Retirement  Plan for Trustees.  The Fund has adopted a retirement  plan that provides for payments to
retired  Trustees.  Payments  are up to 80% of the  average  compensation  paid  during a  Trustee's  five years of
service in which the  highest  compensation  was  received.  A Trustee  must  serve as  trustee  for any of the New
York-based  Oppenheimer  funds  for at least 15  years to be  eligible  for the  maximum  payment.  Each  Trustee's
retirement  benefits  will  depend on the  amount of the  Trustee's  future  compensation  and  length of  service.
Therefore the amount of those  benefits  cannot be determined at this time, nor can we estimate the number of years
of credited service that will be used to determine those benefits.

         |X| Deferred  Compensation  Plan for Trustees.  The Board of Trustees has adopted a Deferred  Compensation
Plan for  disinterested  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
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 Trustee under the plan without  shareholder  approval
for the limited purpose of determining the value of the Trustee's deferred fee account.

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

 The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's  registration  statement  filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public  Reference  Room in  Washington,  D.C. You can obtain
information  about the hours of operation of the Public  Reference Room by calling the SEC at  1-202-942-8090.  The
Code of Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's  registration  statement on the SEC's EDGAR database at the
SEC's  Internet  web site at  http://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.

         ? 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  manager of the Fund is employed by
the  Manager  and is the  person  who is  principally  responsible  for the  day-to-day  management  of the  Fund's
portfolio.  Other members of the Manager's  Equity  Portfolio  Team provide the portfolio  manager 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 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  for any  investment,
adoption of any investment policy, or the purchase, sale or retention of any security.

         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.

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Distribution and Service Plans

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

         The sales charges and concessions paid to, or retained by, the Distributor from the sale of shares
during the Fund's three most recent fiscal years, and the contingent deferred sales charges retained by the
Distributor on the redemption of shares for the most recent fiscal year are 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*, 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  and, in their sole
discretion,  from time to time,  may use their own  resources  (at no direct cost to the Fund) to make  payments to
brokers,  dealers or other financial  institutions for distribution and administrative  services they perform.  The
Manager  may use its profits  from the  advisory  fee it  receives  from the Fund.  In their sole  discretion,  the
Distributor  and the Manager may increase or decrease the amount of payments  they make from their own resources to
plan recipients.

         Unless a plan is terminated as described  below,  the plan  continues in effect from year to year but only
if the  Fund's  Board  of  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 after six years,  the Fund must obtain the approval of both Class A and Class B shareholders  for a proposed
material  amendment to the Class A Plan that would materially  increase payments under the Plan. That approval must
be by a "majority" (as defined in the  Investment  Company Act) of the shares of each Class,  voting  separately by
class.

         While the Plans are in effect,  the Treasurer of the Fund shall provide  separate  written  reports on the
plans to the Board of  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  quarter  in which the
aggregate  net asset  value of all Fund  shares of that class held by the  recipient  for itself and its  customers
does not  exceed a minimum  amount,  if any,  that may be set from time to time by a  majority  of the  Independent
Trustees. The Board of Trustees has set no minimum amount of assets to qualify for payments under the plans.

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

      For the fiscal year ended  August 31, 2001  payments  under the Class A Plan totaled  $837,162,  all of which
was paid by the Distributor to recipients.  That included $41,263 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 the Class A Plan to pay
any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or allocation of overhead.

         |X| Class B, Class C and Class N Service and  Distribution  Plan Fees.  Under each plan,  service fees and
distribution  fees  are  computed  on the  average  of the net  asset  value of  shares  in the  respective  class,
determined as of the close of each regular  business day during the period.  The plans provide 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 plans 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.
         The Class B, Class C and the Class N plans permit the  Distributor  to retain both the  asset-based  sales
charges and the  service  fees or to pay  recipients  the service  fee on a  quarterly  basis,  without  payment in
advance.  However, the Distributor  currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the first
year after the shares are purchased.  After the first year shares are  outstanding,  the Distributor  makes service
fee  payments  quarterly  on those  shares.  The advance  payment is based on the net asset  value of shares  sold.
Shares  purchased by exchange do not qualify for the advance  service fee  payment.  If Class B, Class C or Class N
shares are redeemed during the first year after their  purchase,  the recipient of the service fees on those shares
will be obligated  to repay the  Distributor  a pro rata portion of the advance  payment of the service fee made on
those shares.

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

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

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

o        pays sales  concessions  to  authorized  brokers and dealers at the time of sale and pays  service fees as
             described above,
o        may finance  payment of sales  concessions  and/or the  advance of the  service fee payment to  recipients
             under the plans,  or may provide such  financing  from its own  resources or from the  resources of an
             affiliate,
o        employs personnel to support distribution of Class B, Class C and Class N shares, and
o        bears the costs of sales literature,  advertising and prospectuses  (other than those furnished to current
             shareholders) and state "blue sky" registration fees and certain other distribution expenses.
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.

              When Class B, Class C or Class N shares are sold without the designation of a broker-dealer, the
     Distributor is automatically designated as the broker-dealer of record. In those cases, the Distributor
     retains the service fee and asset-based sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N shares.

         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.

         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.

         All payments  under the Class B, Class C and Class N plans are subject to the  limitations  imposed by the
Conduct Rules of the National  Association of Securities  Dealers,  Inc. on payments of  asset-based  sales charges
and service fees.

Performance of the Fund

Explanation  of  Performance  Terminology.  The  Fund  uses  a  variety  of  terms  to  illustrate  its  investment
performance.  Those terms include  "cumulative  total return," "average annual total return," "average annual total
return at net asset  value"  and  "total  return at net asset  value."  An  explanation  of how total  returns  are
calculated  is set forth below.  The charts below show the Fund's  performance  as of the Fund's most recent fiscal
year end. You can obtain current  performance  information by calling the Fund's  Transfer Agent at  1-800-525-7048
or by visiting the OppenheimerFunds Internet web site at http://www.oppenheimerfunds.com.

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

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

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

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

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

         In  calculating  total  returns  for Class A  shares,  the  current  maximum  sales  charge of 5.75% (as a
percentage  of the  offering  price) is deducted  from the  initial  investment  ("P")  (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%  contingent  deferred  sales charge is deducted for returns for the 1-year
period.  For Class N shares,  the 1% contingent  deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year and
life-of-class periods as applicable.  There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.

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

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


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


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

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

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

         |X|  Lipper  Rankings.  From time to time the Fund may  publish  the  ranking  of the  performance  of its
classes of shares by Lipper  Analytical  Services,  Inc.  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 based on categories  relating to investment  styles. The performance of
the Fund is ranked by Lipper  against all other  micro-cap  funds.  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 and Rankings.  From time to time the Fund may publish the star rating and ranking
of the performance of its classes of shares by Morningstar,  Inc., an independent  mutual fund monitoring  service.
Morningstar  rates and ranks mutual  funds in broad  investment  categories:  domestic  stock funds,  international
stock  funds,  taxable  bond funds and  municipal  bond funds.  The Fund is included  in the  domestic  stock funds
category.

         Morningstar  proprietary star rankings reflect  historical  risk-adjusted  total  investment  return.  For
each fund with at least a three-year history,  Morningstar  calculates a Morningstar Rating TM metric each month by
subtracting  the return on a 90-day U.S.  Treasury bill from the fund's  load-adjusted  return for the same period,
and then  adjusting  this excess  return for risk.  The top 10% of funds in each broad asset class 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. 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 Ratings metrics.

         The Fund may also compare its total  return  ranking to that of other funds in its  Morningstar  category,
in addition to its star  ratings.  Those total  return  rankings  are  percentages  from one percent to one hundred
percent and are not risk adjusted.  For example,  if a fund is in the 94th  percentile,  that means that 94% of the
funds in the same category performed better than it did.


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

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

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

         From time to time the Fund may  include  in its  advertisements  and  sales  literature  the total  return
performance of a hypothetical  investment  account that includes  shares of the fund and other  Oppenheimer  funds.
The combined  account may be part of an  illustration of an asset  allocation  model or similar  presentation.  The
account  performance  may combine total return  performance  of the fund and the total return  performance of other
Oppenheimer funds included in the account.  Additionally,  from time to time, the Fund's  advertisements  and sales
literature may include,  for  illustrative or comparative  purposes,  statistical data or other  information  about
general or specific market and economic conditions. That may include, for example,
o        information  about the  performance  of certain  securities  or  commodities  markets or segments of those
     markets,
o        information about the performance of the economies of particular countries or regions,
o        the earnings of companies  included in segments of particular  industries,  sectors,  securities  markets,
     countries or regions,
o        the availability of different types of securities or offerings of securities,
o        information  relating  to the gross  national  or gross  domestic  product of the  United  States or other
     countries or regions,
o        comparisons  of  various  market   sectors  or  indices  to  demonstrate   performance,   risk,  or  other
     characteristics of the Fund.

ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

How to Buy Shares

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

AccountLink.  When shares are purchased  through  AccountLink,  each purchase must be at least $25.  Shares will be
purchased two regular  business days  following the regular  business day you instruct the  Distributor to initiate
the Automated  Clearing House ("ACH")  transfer to buy the shares.  That  instruction must be received prior to the
close of The New York  Stock  Exchange  that day.  Dividends  will  begin to accrue  on shares  purchased  with the
proceeds of ACH  transfers on the  business day after the shares are  purchased.  The Exchange  normally  closes at
4:00 P.M., but may close earlier on certain days.  The proceeds of ACH transfers are normally  received by the Fund
3 days after the transfers are  initiated.  If the proceeds of the ACH transfer are not received on a timely basis,
the Distributor  reserves the right to cancel the purchase order.  The Distributor and the Fund are not responsible
for any delays in purchasing shares resulting from delays in ACH transmissions.

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

         |X|  Right of Accumulation.  To qualify for the lower sales charge rates that apply to larger purchases
of Class A shares, you and your spouse can add together:
o        Class A, Class B and Class N shares you purchase for your individual accounts (including IRAs and 403(b)
                ----------------------                                                 ---------------------------
                  plans), or for your joint accounts, or for trust or custodial accounts on behalf of your
                  --------
                  children who are minors, and
o        Current purchases of Class A, Class B and Class N shares of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds to
                                     ---------------------
                  reduce the sales charge rate that applies to current purchases of Class A shares, and
o        Class A, Class B and Class N shares of Oppenheimer funds you previously purchased subject to an initial
                ---------------------
                  or contingent deferred sales charge to reduce the sales charge rate for current purchases of
                  Class A shares, provided that you still hold your investment in one of the Oppenheimer funds.
         A fiduciary can count all shares purchased for a trust,  estate or other fiduciary account  (including one
or more employee  benefit plans of the same  employer) that has multiple  accounts.  The  Distributor  will add the
value,  at current  offering  price,  of the shares you  previously  purchased  and  currently  own to the value of
current  purchases to determine  the sales charge rate that  applies.  The reduced  sales charge will apply only to
current purchases. You must request it when you buy shares.

1 - "OSM" stands for Oppenheimer Select Managers

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

         |X| Letters of Intent.  Under a Letter of Intent,  if you  purchase  Class A shares or Class A and Class B
shares of the Fund and other  Oppenheimer  funds  during a 13-month  period,  you can reduce the sales  charge rate
that applies to your purchases of Class A shares.  The total amount of your intended  purchases of both Class A and
Class B shares will  determine the reduced sales charge rate for the Class A shares  purchased  during that period.
You can include purchases made up to 90 days before the date of the Letter.

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

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

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

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

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

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




         |_| 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
thirteen-month Letter of Intent period, the escrowed shares will be promptly released to the investor.

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

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

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

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

Asset  Builder  Plans.  To establish an Asset Builder Plan to buy shares  directly  from a bank  account,  you must
enclose a check (the  minimum  $25) for the initial  purchase  with your  application.  Shares  purchased  by Asset
Builder  Plan  payments  from bank  accounts  are  subject to the  redemption  restrictions  for  recent  purchases
described in the  Prospectus.  Asset Builder Plans are available only if your bank is an ACH member.  Asset Builder
Plans may not be used to buy shares for OppenheimerFunds  employer-sponsored  qualified retirement accounts.  Asset
Builder  Plans also enable  shareholders  of  Oppenheimer  Cash  Reserves to use their fund account to make monthly
automatic purchases of shares of up to four other Oppenheimer funds.

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

         Before you establish Asset Builder  payments,  you should obtain a prospectus of the selected fund(s) from
your  financial  advisor (or the  Distributor)  and  request an  application  from the  Distributor.  Complete  the
application  and return it. You may change  the amount of your Asset  Builder  payment or you can  terminate  these
automatic  investments  at any time by writing to the  Transfer  Agent.  The Transfer  Agent  requires a reasonable
period  (approximately  15 days) after receipt of your  instructions to implement them. The Fund reserves the right
to amend, suspend, or discontinue offering Asset Builder plans at any time without prior notice.

Retirement  Plans.  Certain  types of  retirement  plans are entitled to purchase  shares of the Fund without sales
charge or at reduced sales charge rates,  as described in Appendix B to this  Statement of Additional  Information.
Certain special sales charge  arrangements  described in that Appendix apply to retirement  plans whose records are
maintained  on a daily  valuation  basis by Merrill  Lynch Pierce  Fenner & Smith,  Inc. or an  independent  record
keeper that has a contract or special  arrangement  with Merrill Lynch.  If on the date the plan sponsor signed the
Merrill  Lynch record  keeping  service  agreement  the plan has less than $3 million in assets  (other than assets
invested in money market funds)  invested in applicable  Investments,  then the  retirement  plan may purchase only
Class B shares of the Oppenheimer  funds.  Any retirement  plans in that category that currently  invest in Class B
shares  of the Fund  will  have  their  Class B shares  converted  to Class A shares  of the Fund  when the  plan's
applicable investments reach $5 million.

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  value 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 and Class N shares  and the  dividends  payable on Class B, Class C and 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 are subject.

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

         The  Distributor  will not  accept any order in the  amount of  $500,000  or more for Class B shares or $1
million or more for Class C shares on behalf of a single  investor (not  including  dealer "street name" or omnibus
accounts).  That is because  generally it will be more advantageous for that investor to purchase Class A shares of
the Fund.

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

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

o        to all rollover IRAs,
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 _ to this Statement of Additional Information) which
                      have entered into a special agreement with the Distributor for that purpose,
o        to Retirement Plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, the
                      recordkeeper or the plan sponsor for which has entered into a special agreement with the
                      Distributor,
o        to Retirement Plans of a plan sponsor where the aggregate assets of all such plans invested in the
                      Oppenheimer funds is $500,000 or more,
o        to OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Ascender 401(k) plans that pay for the purchase with the redemption
                      proceeds of Class A shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds.

         |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 value 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).

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 New York Stock  Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open.
The  calculation  is done by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets  attributable  to a class by the number of
shares of that class that are  outstanding.  The  Exchange  normally  closes at 4:00 P.M.,  New York time,  but may
close  earlier  on some  other  days (for  example,  in case of weather  emergencies  or on days  falling  before a
holiday).  The Exchange's  most recent annual  announcement  (which is subject to change) states that it will close
on New Year's Day,  Presidents'  Day,  Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Good Friday,  Memorial Day,  Independence  Day,
Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. It may also close on other days.

         Dealers  other than  Exchange  members  may  conduct  trading in certain  securities  on days on which the
Exchange is closed  (including  weekends and U.S.  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 value per share may be
significantly affected on such days when shareholders may not purchase or redeem shares.  Additionally,  trading on
European and Asian stock exchanges and  over-the-counter  markets normally is completed before the close of The New
York Stock Exchange.

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

         ? 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:

         ? Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange or on NASDAQ are valued as follows:
(1)      if last sale  information  is regularly  reported,  they are valued at the last reported sale price on the
                  principal exchange on which they are traded or on NASDAQ, as applicable, on that day, or
(2)      if last sale  information is not available on a valuation  date, they are valued at the last reported sale
                  price  preceding the  valuation  date if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and "asked"
                  prices on the valuation date or, if not, at the closing "bid" price on the valuation date.
         ? 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.
         ?  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.
         ? 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.
         ? 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.
         ? 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 London foreign  exchange  market on a particular  business day that are provided
to the Manager by a bank,  dealer or pricing  service  that the Manager has  determined  to be reliable are used to
value  foreign  currency,  including  forward  contracts,  and to  convert  to U.S.  dollars  securities  that  are
denominated in foreign currency.

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

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


How to Sell Shares

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

Reinvestment  Privilege.  Within  six  months  of a  redemption,  a  shareholder  may  reinvest  all or part of the
redemption proceeds of:
         ? Class A shares  purchased  subject to an initial  sales  charge or Class A shares on which a  contingent
deferred sales charge was paid, or
         ? 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 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 $500 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 or Class C  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,  403(b)(7)
custodial   plans,   401(k)   plans  or  pension  or   profit-sharing   plans  should  be  addressed  to  "Trustee,
OppenheimerFunds  Retirement  Plans," c/o the Transfer  Agent at its address  listed in "How To Sell Shares" in the
Prospectus or on the back cover of this Statement of Additional Information. The request must:
(1)      state the reason for the distribution;
(2)      state the owner's awareness of tax penalties if the distribution is premature; and
(3)      conform to the requirements of the plan and the Fund's other redemption requirements.

         Participants (other than self-employed  persons) 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 New York Stock Exchange on
a regular  business  day,  it will be  processed  at that day's net asset  value if the order was  received  by the
dealer or broker from its customers prior to the time the Exchange  closes.  Normally,  the Exchange closes at 4:00
P.M.,  but may do so earlier on some days.  Additionally,  the order must have been  transmitted to and received by
the Distributor prior to its close of business that day (normally 5:00 P.M.).

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

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

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

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

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

         |X| Automatic  Exchange Plans.  Shareholders can authorize the Transfer Agent to exchange a pre-determined
amount  of  shares  of the Fund for  shares  (of the same  class) of other  Oppenheimer  funds  automatically  on a
monthly,  quarterly,  semi-annual or annual basis under an Automatic  Exchange Plan. The minimum amount that may be
exchanged to each other fund account is $25.  Instructions should be provided on the  OppenheimerFunds  Application
or signature-guaranteed  instructions.  Exchanges made under these plans are subject to the restrictions that apply
to exchanges as set forth in "How to Exchange  Shares" in the  Prospectus and below in this Statement of Additional
Information.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Exchange Shares

         As stated in the Prospectus, shares of a particular class of Oppenheimer funds having more than one
class of shares may be exchanged only for shares of the same class of other Oppenheimer funds.  Shares of
Oppenheimer funds that have a single class without a class designation are deemed "Class A" shares for this
purpose. You can obtain a current list showing which funds offer which classes by calling the Distributor at
1.800.525.7048.
o        All of the Oppenheimer funds currently offer Class A, B and C shares except Oppenheimer Money Market
     Fund, Inc., Centennial Money Market Trust, Centennial Tax Exempt Trust, Centennial Government Trust,
     Centennial New York Tax Exempt Trust, Centennial California Tax Exempt Trust, and Centennial America Fund,
     L.P., which only offer Class A shares.
o        Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are generally available only by
     exchange from the same class of shares of other Oppenheimer funds or through OppenheimerFunds-sponsored
     401(k) plans.
o        Only certain Oppenheimer funds currently offer Class Y shares. Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Real Asset
     Fund may not be exchanged for shares of any other fund.
o        Only certain Oppenheimer funds currently offer Class N shares, which are only offered to retirement
     plans as described in the Prospectus. Class N shares can be exchanged only for Class N shares of other
     Oppenheimer funds.
o        Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be exchanged only for Class A shares of
     other Oppenheimer funds. They may not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
     Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves
     acquired by exchange of Class M shares.
o        Class X shares of Limited Term New York Municipal Fund can be exchanged only for Class B shares of other
     Oppenheimer funds and no exchanges may be made to Class X shares.
o        Shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund may not be exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer Money
     Market Fund, Inc., Oppenheimer Cash Reserves or Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund.  Only participants
     in certain retirement plans may purchase shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund, and only those
     participants may exchange shares of other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Capital Preservation
     Fund.
o        Class A shares of Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund are not available by exchange of shares of
     Oppenheimer Money Market Fund or Class A shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves. 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        Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y Shares of Oppenheimer Select Managers Mercury Advisors S&P Index
     Fund and Oppenheimer Select Managers QM Active Balanced Fund are only available to retirement plans and are
     available only by exchange from the same class of shares of other Oppenheimer funds held by retirement plans.

      Class A shares of  Oppenheimer  funds may be exchanged at net asset value for shares of any money market fund
      offered  by the  Distributor.  Shares of any money  market  fund  purchased  without  a sales  charge  may be
      exchanged  for shares of  Oppenheimer  funds  offered with a sales  charge upon payment of the sales  charge.
      They may also be used to  purchase  shares of  Oppenheimer  funds  subject to an early  withdrawal  charge or
      contingent deferred sales charge.

         Shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. purchased with the redemption proceeds of shares of other
mutual funds (other than funds managed by the Manager or its subsidiaries) redeemed within the 30 days prior to
that purchase may subsequently be exchanged for shares of other Oppenheimer funds without being subject to an
initial sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge. To qualify for that privilege, the investor or the
investor's dealer must notify the Distributor of eligibility for this privilege at the time the shares of
Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. are purchased.  If requested, they must supply proof of entitlement to this
privilege.

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

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

         |X| How Exchanges  Affect  Contingent  Deferred  Sales  Charges.  No contingent  deferred  sales charge is
imposed on exchanges of shares of any class  purchased  subject to a contingent  deferred  sales  charge.  However,
when Class A shares  acquired by  exchange  of Class A shares of other  Oppenheimer  funds  purchased  subject to a
Class A contingent  deferred  sales charge are  redeemed  within 18 months of the end 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.  The Class B contingent  deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B shares  acquired by exchange
if they are  redeemed  within 6 years  of the  initial  purchase  of the  exchanged  Class B  shares.  The  Class C
contingent  deferred sales charge is imposed on Class C shares  acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within 12
months of the initial  purchase of the exchanged  Class C shares.  With respect to Class N shares,  a 1% contingent
deferred  sales charge will be imposed if the  retirement  plan (not including IRAs and 403(b) plans) is terminated
or Class N shares of all  Oppenheimer  funds are terminated as an investment  option of the plan and Class N shares
are redeemed  within 18 months after the plan's first  purchase of Class N shares of any  Oppenheimer  fund or with
respect to an  individual  retirement  plan or 403(b)  plan,  Class N shares are  redeemed  within 18 months of the
plan's first purchase of Class N shares of any Oppenheimer fund.

         When Class B or Class C 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 or the Class C contingent  deferred sales charge
will be  followed  in  determining  the  order in  which  the  shares  are  exchanged.  Before  exchanging  shares,
shareholders  should take into account how the exchange may affect any contingent  deferred sales charge that might
be imposed in the  subsequent  redemption of remaining  shares.  Shareholders  owning shares of more than one class
must specify which class of shares they wish to exchange.

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

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

                  |_| Processing  Exchange  Requests.  Shares to be exchanged are redeemed on the regular  business
day the Transfer Agent receives an exchange request in proper form (the  "Redemption  Date").  Normally,  shares of
the fund to be acquired are purchased on the  Redemption  Date, but such purchases may be delayed by either fund up
to five business days if it determines that it would be  disadvantaged  by an immediate  transfer of the redemption
proceeds.  The Fund reserves the right, in its  discretion,  to refuse any exchange  request that may  disadvantage
it. For example,  if the receipt of multiple  exchange  requests  from a dealer might  require the  disposition  of
portfolio  securities at a time or at a price that might be  disadvantageous  to the Fund,  the Fund may refuse the
request.  When you exchange some or all of your shares from one fund to another,  any special  account feature such
as an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic  Withdrawal  Plan,  will be switched to the new fund account  unless you tell
the Transfer  Agent not to do so.  However,  special  redemption and exchange  features such as Automatic  Exchange
Plans and Automatic Withdrawal Plans cannot be switched to an account in Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund.

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends and  Distributions.  The Fund has no fixed  dividend rate and there can be no assurance as to the payment
of any dividends or the  realization  of any capital  gains.  The dividends  and  distributions  paid by a class of
shares will vary from time to time depending on market  conditions,  the composition of the Fund's  portfolio,  and
expenses  borne by the Fund or borne  separately by a class.  Dividends are  calculated in the same manner,  at the
same  time,  and on the same day for each  class of  shares.  However,  dividends  on Class B,  Class C and Class N
shares are  expected  to be lower than  dividends  on Class A 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  and  Distributions.  The Federal tax  treatment  of the Fund's  dividends  and
capital gains distributions is briefly highlighted in the Prospectus.

         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.

         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.  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.

         The Fund  intends  to  qualify  as a  "regulated  investment  company"  under the  Internal  Revenue  Code
(although it reserves the right not to qualify).  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 the Fund's shares are held in a retirement  account or the  shareholder  is otherwise
exempt from tax). If the Fund qualifies as a "regulated  investment  company"  under the Internal  Revenue Code, it
will not be liable for  Federal  income  taxes on  amounts  paid by it as  dividends  and  distributions.  The Fund
qualified as a regulated  investment  company in its last fiscal year. The Internal  Revenue Code contains a number
of complex tests relating to  qualification  which the Fund might not meet in any particular year. If it did not so
qualify,  the Fund would be treated for tax purposes as an ordinary  corporation  and receive no tax  deduction for
payments made to shareholders.

         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.

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

The  Custodian.  The Bank of New York 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 will be the practice of the Fund to deal with the Custodian in a manner  uninfluenced  by
any banking  relationship  the  Custodian  may have with the Manager and its  affiliates.  The Fund's cash balances
with the custodian in excess of $100,000 are not protected by Federal deposit  insurance.  Those uninsured balances
at times may be substantial.

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

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund (the Fund) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The Fund's
investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
      The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares.
Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset
value plus a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are
sold without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge (CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement
plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those
accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without
either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC. All classes of shares have identical
rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except that each class has its
own expenses directly attributable to that class and exclusive voting rights
with respect to matters affecting that class. Classes A, B, C and N have
separate distribution and/or service plans. No such plan has been adopted for
Class Y shares. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six
years after the date of purchase. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges or
other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price of
the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's assets
are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale
price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing bid
and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities (including
restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available are valued
primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees, or at their fair value. Fair value is
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts related
to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment income are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions.
      The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.


25 | OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Repurchase Agreements. The Fund requires its custodian bank to take possession,
to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have
segregated within the custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying securities is required
to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. If the seller
of the agreement defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the
seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of the
collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily to
each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required.

As of August 31, 2001, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an
unused capital loss carryover as follows:

                    Expiring
                    ------------------------------------
                      2009                   $46,931,758

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trustees' Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for the
Fund's independent Board of Trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended
August 31, 2001, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were decreased by
$1,281 and payments of $1,809 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an
accumulated liability of $64,975 as of August 31, 2001.
      The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a
portion of annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. Under
the plan, the compensation deferred is periodically adjusted as though an
equivalent amount had been invested for the Board of Trustees in shares of one
or more Oppenheimer funds selected by the trustee. The amount paid to the Board
of Trustees under the plan will be determined based upon the performance of the
selected funds. 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.


26 | OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes. 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 realized gain
was recorded by the Fund.
      The Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
year ended August 31, 2001, amounts have been reclassified to reflect decrease
in paid-in capital of $6,909,660, a decrease in accumulated net investment loss
of $6,662,885, and a decrease in accumulated net realized loss on investments of
$246,775. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and amortization
of premium, is accrued as earned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Security Transactions. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date.
Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified
cost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates Continued
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. 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 purchased. The Distributor makes payments to plan recipients quarterly at
an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual net assets consisting
of Class A shares of the Fund. For the year ended August 31, 2001, payments
under the Class A plan totaled $837,162, all of which were paid by the
Distributor to recipients, and included $41,263 paid to an affiliate of the
Manager. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class
A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class B, Class C and Class N Distribution and Service Plan Fees. Under each
plan, service fees and distribution fees are computed on the average of the net
asset value of shares in the respective class, determined as of the close of
each regular business day during the period. The Class B, Class C and Class N
plans provide 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 Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B shares.
The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C shares during
the first year the shares are outstanding. The Distributor retains the
asset-based sales charge on Class N shares. The asset-based sales charges on
Class B, Class C and Class N shares allow investors to buy shares without a
front-end sales charge while allowing the Distributor to compensate dealers that
sell those shares.
      The 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 asset-based sales charges from
the Fund under the plans. If any 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. The
plans allow for the carryforward of distribution expenses, to be recovered from
asset-based sales charges in subsequent fiscal periods.

Distribution fees paid to the Distributor for the year ended August 31, 2001,
were as follows:



                                                                           Distributor's

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

Written option activity for the year ended August 31, 2001, was as follows:



                                                                      Call Options

6. Illiquid or Restricted Securities
As of August 31, 2001, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid or restricted. Restricted securities are often purchased in private
placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may
have contractual restrictions on resale, and are valued under methods approved
by the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. A security may also be
considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation
has not changed for a certain period of time. The Fund intends to invest no more
than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed
periodically) in illiquid or restricted securities. Certain restricted
securities, eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, are not
subject to that limitation. The aggregate value of illiquid or restricted
securities subject to this limitation as of August 31, 2001, was $10,583,465,
which represents 2.58% of the Fund's net assets, all of which is considered
restricted. Information concerning restricted securities is as follows:



                                                                                               Unrealized

7. Bank Borrowings
The Fund may borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes including,
without limitation, funding of shareholder redemptions provided asset coverage
for borrowings exceeds 300%. The Fund has entered into an agreement which
enables it to participate with other Oppenheimer funds in an unsecured line of
credit with a bank, which permits borrowings up to $400 million, collectively.
Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to
the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.45%. Borrowings are payable 30 days after such
loan is executed. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata
share of the average unutilized amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08%
per annum.
      The Fund had no borrowings outstanding during the year ended or at August
31, 2001.

                          OppenheimerFunds Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers

In certain cases, the initial sales charge that applies to purchases of Class A shares2 of the Oppenheimer funds
or the contingent deferred sales charge that may apply to Class A, Class B or Class C shares may be waived.3
That is because of the economies of sales efforts realized by OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., (referred to in
this document as the "Distributor"), or by dealers or other financial institutions that offer those shares to
certain classes of investors.

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

For the purposes of some of the waivers described below and in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information of the applicable Oppenheimer funds, the term "Retirement Plan" refers to the following types of
plans:
(1)      plans qualified under Sections 401(a) or 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code,
(2)      non-qualified deferred compensation plans,
(3)      employee benefit plans4
(4)      Group Retirement Plans5
(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 of the end of the calendar month of their purchase, as described in the Prospectus
(unless a waiver described elsewhere in this Appendix applies to the redemption). Additionally, on shares
purchased under these waivers that are subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge, the Distributor
will pay the applicable concession described in the Prospectus under "Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge."6
This waiver provision applies to:
-        Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
-        Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to purchase such shares at net asset
         value but subject to a contingent deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001.
-        Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the purchases are made:
(1)      through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser that has made special arrangements with
              the Distributor for those purchases, or
(2)      by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified Retirement Plan if the administrator of that
              Plan has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
      -           Purchases of Class A shares by  Retirement  Plans that have any of the  following  record-keeping
      arrangements:
(1)      The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a
              daily valuation basis for the Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
              record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan must have $3 million or more of its
              assets invested in (a) mutual funds, other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch
              Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available under a Service Agreement between
              Merrill Lynch and the mutual fund's principal underwriter or distributor, and  (b) funds advised or
              managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b) are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
(2)      The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a daily valuation basis by a record keeper
              whose services are provided under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement Plan and Merrill
              Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the record keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch,
              the Plan must have $3 million or more of its assets (excluding assets invested in money market
              funds) invested in Applicable Investments.
(3)      The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a service agreement with Merrill Lynch and on
              the date the plan sponsor signs that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible employees (as
              determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion manager).
      -           Purchases  by a Retirement  Plan whose record  keeper had a  cost-allocation  agreement  with the
      Transfer Agent on or before March 1, 2001.

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 virtue of a remarriage (step-children,
         step-parents, etc.) are included.
-        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

                net asset value without being subject to the Class A initial sales charge.

         Any of the Class A shares of a Fund and the other Former Connecticut Mutual Funds that were purchased at

                engaged in a common business, profession, civic or charitable endeavor or other activity, and the
                spouses and minor dependent children of such persons, pursuant to a marketing program between
                CMFS and such group; and

1 Mr. Murphy and Mr. Griffiths are not Directors of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.  Mr. Murphy is not a
Trustee of Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund.
* 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 does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
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.
12 This provision does not apply to 403(b)(7) custodial plans if the participant is less than age 55, nor to IRAs.
