ABOUT THE FUND

The Fund's Investment Objective and Principal Investment Strategies

WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE? The Fund seeks capital appreciation.

WHAT DOES THE FUND MAINLY INVEST IN? The Fund invests mainly in common stocks of
"growth" companies. These may be newer companies or established companies of any
capitalization  range that the portfolio  manager believes have favorable growth
prospects.  The Fund may invest without limit in companies in any capitalization
range. The Fund focuses mainly on domestic companies, but may buy foreign stocks
as  well.  The  Fund may  also  invest  its  assets  in a  variety  of  industry
categories,  although it may from time to time  emphasize  investments in one or
more  industries.  For  example,  the Fund has,  at  certain  times,  invested a
significant amount of its assets in technology and healthcare companies.

HOW DOES THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER DECIDE WHAT SECURITIES TO BUY OR SELL? The Fund's
portfolio  manager uses fundamental  analysis,  relying on internal and external
research and analysis,  to look for growth companies.  He generally  considers a
company's financial statements,  interviews with management, and analysis of the
company's  operations  and product  developments.  The  portfolio  manager  also
evaluates research on particular industries,  market trends and general economic
conditions. The portfolio manager focuses on factors that may vary in particular
cases and over time. Currently, the portfolio manager looks for:

 o  Companies with a history of positive revenue and earnings growth,
 o  Companies with management the portfolio manager believes have demonstrated an
    ability to handle growth,
 o  Companies  with growth  rates that the  portfolio  manager  believes  are
    sustainable over time.

WHO IS THE FUND  DESIGNED  FOR?  The Fund is designed for  aggressive  investors
seeking capital  appreciation in their investment over the long term.  Investors
in the Fund should be willing to assume the greater risks of volatile short-term
share price  fluctuations and realized losses that are typical for an aggressive
growth  fund.  Since  the Fund  does not seek  income  and the  income  from its
investments  will likely be small,  it is not  designed  for  investors  needing
current  income.  Because  of its  focus on  long-term  growth,  the Fund may be
appropriate  for a portion of a retirement  plan investment for investors with a
high risk tolerance. The Fund is not a complete investment program.

Main Risks of Investing in the Fund

All investments have risks to some degree. The Fund's investments are subject to
changes in their value from a number of factors  described below.  There is also
the  risk  that  poor  security  selection  by the  Fund's  investment  Manager,
OppenheimerFunds, Inc., will cause the Fund to underperform other funds having a
similar objective.

RISKS OF INVESTING IN STOCKS.  Stocks  fluctuate in price,  and their short-term
volatility at times may be great.  Because the Fund invests  primarily in common
stocks of U.S. companies,  the value of the Fund's portfolio will be affected by
changes in the U.S.  stock  markets and the special  economic and other  factors
that might primarily affect the prices of growth stocks. Market risk will affect
the Fund's net asset value per share,  which will fluctuate as the values of the
Fund's portfolio securities change. A variety of factors can affect the price of
a particular  stock and the prices of  individual  stocks do not all move in the
same direction uniformly or at the same time. Different stock markets may behave
differently from each other.

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

     Risks of Growth  Stocks.  Stocks of growth  companies,  particularly  newer
companies,  may offer  opportunities for greater long-term capital  appreciation
but may be more volatile than stocks of larger, more established companies. They
have  greater  risks if the  company's  earnings  growth or stock price fails to
increase as expected.

THERE ARE SPECIAL  RISKS OF FOREIGN  INVESTING.  The Fund can buy  securities of
companies or  governments  in any country,  including  developed  countries  and
emerging markets.  There is no limit on the amount of the Fund's assets that may
be invested in foreign  securities.  While foreign  securities may offer special
investment opportunities, there are also special risks.

     The change in value of a foreign  currency  against  the U.S.  dollar  will
result in a change in the U.S.  dollar value of securities  denominated  in that
foreign  currency.  Foreign  issuers are not subject to the same  accounting and
disclosure  requirements  to which  U.S.  companies  are  subject.  The value of
foreign   investments   may  be  affected  by  exchange   control   regulations,
expropriation or nationalization of a company's assets, foreign taxes, delays in
settlement of transactions,  changes in governmental economic or monetary policy
in the U.S. or abroad,  or other  political  and economic  factors.  These risks
could cause the prices of foreign stocks to fall and could therefore depress the
Fund's share price.

HOW RISKY IS THE FUND OVERALL?  The risks described above  collectively form the
overall  risk  profile  of the Fund,  and can  affect  the  value of the  Fund's
investments,  its investment  performance  and its prices per share.  Particular
investments and investment strategies also have risks. These risks mean that you
can lose money by investing in the Fund.  When you redeem your shares,  they may
be worth more or less than what you paid for them.  There is no  assurance  that
the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

     In the short term,  high-growth  stocks can be very volatile.  The price of
the Fund's shares can go up and down substantially.  The Fund generally does not
use  income-oriented  investments  to help  cushion the Fund's total return from
changes  in  stock  prices.  In the  OppenheimerFunds  spectrum,  the Fund is an
aggressive growth fund,  designed for investors willing to assume greater risks.
It is likely to be subject  to greater  fluctuations  in its share  prices  than
funds that emphasize large  capitalization  stocks,  or funds that focus on both
stocks and bonds.

An  investment  in the Fund is not a deposit  of any bank and is not  insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance  Corporation or any other government
agency.

The Fund's Past Performance

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

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

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

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

Sales charges and taxes are not included in the  calculations  of return in this
bar chart, and if those charges and taxes were included, the returns may be less
than those shown.

For  the  period  from  1/1/04  through  9/30/04,  the  cumulative  return  (not
annualized)  before taxes for Class A shares was 0.17%.  During the period shown
in the bar  chart,  the  highest  return  (not  annualized)  before  taxes for a
calendar  quarter was 55.70% (4th Q`99) and the lowest  return (not  annualized)
before taxes for a calendar quarter was -32.16% (4th Q'00).

1        From 10/31/95.

The Fund's average annual total returns include  applicable  sales charges:  for
Class A shares,  the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%;  for Class B
shares,  the contingent  deferred sales charges of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-years);
and for Class C and Class N shares, the 1% contingent  deferred sales charge for
the 1-year period. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares.  Because Class B
shares   convert  to  Class  A  shares  72  months  after   purchase,   Class  B
"life-of-class"  performance  does not include  the  contingent  deferred  sales
charge and uses Class A performance for the period after conversion. The returns
measure the performance of a hypothetical  account and assume that all dividends
and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in additional shares.

The  performance  of the Fund's shares is compared to the S&P 500 Index,  an
unmanaged  index of equity  securities,  the Russell 3000 Growth Index, an index
that  measures the broad growth  market and the Russell 2000 Index,  an index of
small-capitalization  stocks.  The Fund  changed  its  secondary  index from the
Russell 2000 Index to the Russell 3000 Growth  Index  because the Fund  believes
that the Russell 3000 Growth Index,  a multi-cap  index,  is a more  appropriate
benchmark  reflecting  the  types of  multi-cap  securities  in  which  the Fund
invests.  The Fund will continue to compare its  performance  to the S&P 500
Index.  The indices'  performance  includes  reinvestment of income but does not
reflect  transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. The Fund's investments vary
from those in the indices.


Fees and Expenses of the Fund

The following  tables are provided to help you  understand the fees and expenses
you may pay if you buy and hold  shares of the Fund.  The Fund pays a variety of
expenses directly for management of its assets, administration,  distribution of
its shares and other  services.  Those expenses are  subtracted  from the Fund's
assets to  calculate  the Fund's net asset  value per  share.  All  shareholders
therefore pay those  expenses  indirectly.  Shareholders  pay other  transaction
expenses  directly,  such as sales  charges.  The numbers below are based on the
Fund's expenses during its fiscal year ended August 31, 2004.

Expenses may vary in future years. "Other Expenses" include transfer agent fees,
custodial  fees,  and  accounting  and legal  expenses the Fund pays. The "Other
Expenses" in the table are based on, among other things, the fees the Fund would
have  paid if the  transfer  agent had not  waived a portion  of its fee under a
voluntary  undertaking to the Fund to limit these fees to 0.35% of average daily
net assets per fiscal year for all classes.  That  undertaking may be amended or
withdrawn at any time. After the waiver,  the actual "Other Expenses" and "Total
Annual Operating Expenses" as percentages of average daily net assets were 0.45%
and 1.44%, respectively,  for Class A shares, 0.48% and 2.23%, respectively, for
Class B shares, 0.45% and 2.20%, respectively,  for Class C shares and 0.45% and
1.70%,  respectively,  for Class N shares. Class Y shares were the same as shown
above.

1. A contingent deferred sales charge may apply to redemptions of investments of
$1 million or more  ($500,000 for certain  retirement  plan accounts) of Class A
shares. See "How to Buy Shares" for details.
2. Applies to redemptions in first year after purchase.  The contingent deferred
sales charge  declines  from 5% to 1% in years one through six and is eliminated
after that.
3. Applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of a purchase.
4.  Applies to shares  redeemed  within 18 months of a  retirement  plan's first
purchase of Class N shares.

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

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

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

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

About the Fund's Investments

THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISKS. The allocation of the Fund's
portfolio  among  different  investments  will  vary over  time  based  upon the
Manager's  evaluation of economic and market trends.  The Fund's portfolio might
not always include all of the different  types of investments  described in this
Prospectus.  The  Statement of  Additional  Information  contains  more detailed
information about the Fund's investment policies and risks.

     The  Manager  tries to reduce  risks by  carefully  researching  securities
before they are  purchased.  The Fund  attempts to reduce its exposure to market
risks by  diversifying  its  investments,  that is, by not holding a substantial
amount of stock of any one company and by not  investing  too great a percentage
of the Fund's assets in any one company. Also, the Fund does not concentrate 25%
or more of its assets in investments in any one industry.

     However,  changes in the overall  market prices of securities  can occur at
any time.  The share  prices of the Fund will  change  daily based on changes in
market  prices of  securities  and market  conditions  and in  response to other
economic events.

Growth Stock  Investments.  The Manager looks for stocks of companies  that have
     growth  potential.  Growth  companies  may be  developing  new  products or
     services or may be expanding into new markets for their products.  They may
     be newer companies or more established  companies  entering a growth cycle.
     The  Fund's   investments   are  not  limited  to  issuers  in  a  specific
     capitalization  range,  such as large-cap or small-cap  companies,  and the
     Fund  can  invest  in  issuers  in  all   capitalization   ranges.   Market
     capitalization  refers to the market value of all of a company's issued and
     outstanding stock. Because the stocks of companies that have smaller market
     capitalizations tend to be more volatile, to the extent that the Fund holds
     small-cap stocks, its share prices may fluctuate more and the risks of loss
     are greater.

Newer  growth  companies  tend to  retain  a large  part of their  earnings  for
research,  development or investment in capital assets.  Therefore,  they do not
tend to  emphasize  paying  dividends,  and may  not  pay  any  dividends  for a
protracted  period.  They are  selected  for the Fund's  portfolio  because  the
Manager believes the price of the stock will increase over time.

Industry Focus. At times,  the Fund might increase the relative  emphasis of its
     investments  in a  particular  industry or group of  industries.  Stocks of
     issuers in a particular  industry  might be affected by changes in economic
     conditions or by changes in government  regulations,  availability of basic
     resources or supplies,  or other events that affect that industry more than
     others.  To the extent that the Fund has a greater  emphasis on investments
     in a particular  industry,  its share  values may  fluctuate in response to
     events affecting that industry.

Portfolio Turnover.  The Fund's investment  process may cause the Fund to engage
     in active and frequent trading.  The Fund can engage in active and frequent
     trading  to try to achieve  its  objective,  and may have a high  portfolio
     turnover  rate (for  example,  over  100%).  Increased  portfolio  turnover
     creates higher brokerage and transaction costs for the Fund (and may reduce
     performance).  If the  Fund  realizes  capital  gains  when  it  sells  its
     portfolio   investments,   it  must   generally  pay  those  gains  out  to
     shareholders,   increasing  their  taxable  distributions.   The  Financial
     Highlights  table at the end of this Prospectus  shows the Fund's portfolio
     turnover rates during prior fiscal years.

Can  the Fund's  Investment  Objective and Policies Change?  The Fund's Board of
     Trustees can change non-fundamental investment policies without shareholder
     approval,  although  significant changes will be described in amendments to
     this  Prospectus.  Fundamental  policies  cannot  be  changed  without  the
     approval of a majority of the Fund's  outstanding voting shares. The Fund's
     investment objective is a fundamental policy. Other investment restrictions
     that are  fundamental  policies are listed in the  Statement of  Additional
     Information. An investment policy is not fundamental unless this Prospectus
     or the Statement of Additional Information says that it is.

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

OtherEquity Securities.  While the Fund emphasizes investments in common stocks,
     it can also buy preferred  stocks and  securities  convertible  into common
     stock.  They can be  securities  issued by domestic  or foreign  companies,
     although  the Fund's  foreign  holdings  currently  are small.  The Manager
     considers some convertible securities to be "equity equivalents" because of
     the conversion feature and in that case their credit rating has less impact
     on the investment decision than in the case of other debt securities.

Investing in  Special  Situations.  At  times  the  Fund  might  use  aggressive
     investment  techniques,  seeking to benefit from what the portfolio manager
     perceives to be special situations.  These may be mergers,  reorganizations
     or other unusual events  expected to affect a particular  issuer.  However,
     there is a risk that the change or event might not occur,  which could have
     a negative impact on the price of the security. The Fund's investment might
     not produce the expected gains or could incur a loss for the portfolio.

Investing in  Small,  Unseasoned  Companies.  The  Fund  can  invest  in  small,
     unseasoned companies.  These are companies that have been in operation less
     than three years,  including  the  operations  of any  predecessors.  These
     securities  may  have  limited  liquidity  and  their  prices  may be  very
     volatile. The Fund currently does not intend to invest more than 10% of its
     net assets in these securities.

Illiquid and Restricted Securities.  Investments may be illiquid because they do
     not have an active  trading  market,  making it  difficult to value them or
     dispose of them promptly at an acceptable price.  Restricted securities may
     have  terms that  limit  their  resale to other  investors  or may  require
     registration  under  applicable  securities  laws  before  they may be sold
     publicly.  The Fund  will not  invest  more  than 10% of its net  assets in
     illiquid or  restricted  securities.  The Board can increase  that limit to
     15%.  Certain  restricted  securities  that  are  eligible  for  resale  to
     qualified  institutional  purchasers may not be subject to that limit.  The
     Manager  monitors  holdings of illiquid  securities  on an ongoing basis to
     determine whether to sell any holdings to maintain adequate liquidity.

Derivative  Investments.  The Fund can invest in a number of different  kinds of
     "derivative"  investments.  In general terms, a derivative investment is an
     investment  contract  whose value depends on (or is derived from) the value
     of an  underlying  asset,  interest rate or index.  In the broadest  sense,
     options,  futures contracts,  and other hedging  instruments the Fund might
     use may be  considered  "derivative"  investments.  In  addition  to  using
     derivatives for hedging,  the Fund might use other  derivative  investments
     because they offer the potential for increased  value.  The Fund  currently
     does not use derivatives to a significant degree and is not required to use
     them in seeking its objective.

     Derivatives have risks. If the issuer of the derivative investment does not
pay the amount due, the Fund can lose money on the  investment.  The  underlying
security  or  investment  on which a  derivative  is based,  and the  derivative
itself, may not perform the way the Manager expected it to. As a result of these
risks the Fund could realize less principal or income from the  investment  than
expected  or its hedge  might be  unsuccessful.  As a result,  the Fund's  share
prices  could fall.  Certain  derivative  investments  held by the Fund might be
illiquid.

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

Some of  these  strategies  would  hedge  the  Fund's  portfolio  against  price
fluctuations. Other hedging strategies, such as buying futures and call options,
would tend to increase the Fund's exposure to the securities market.

There are also special risks in particular hedging  strategies.  Options trading
involves  the payment of premiums and can increase  portfolio  turnover.  If the
Manager used a hedging  instrument at the wrong time or judged market conditions
incorrectly,  the strategy could reduce the Fund's  return.  The Fund could also
experience  losses if the prices of its futures and options were not  correlated
with its other  investments  or if it could not close a  position  because of an
illiquid market.

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

How the Fund Is Managed

THE  MANAGER.  The  Manager  chooses  the Fund's  investments  and  handles  its
day-to-day business. The Manager carries out its duties, subject to the policies
established  by the  Fund's  Board of  Trustees,  under an  investment  advisory
agreement  that states the Manager's  responsibilities.  The agreement  sets the
fees the Fund pays to the Manager and  describes  the expenses  that the Fund is
responsible to pay to conduct its business.

     The Manager has been an investment  adviser since January 1960. The Manager
and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates managed more than $155 billion in
assets as of September 30, 2004,  including  other  Oppenheimer  funds with more
than 7  million  shareholder  accounts.  The  Manager  is  located  at Two World
Financial Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1008.

Portfolio Manager.  The portfolio manager of the Fund is Alan Gilston. He is the
     person  primarily  responsible for the day-to-day  management of the Fund's
     portfolio.  Mr.  Gilston is a Vice President of the Fund and of the Manager
     and has been employed by the Manager since September 1997.

Advisory  Fees.  Under  the  investment  advisory  agreement,  the Fund pays the
     Manager  an  advisory  fee at an annual  rate that  declines  as the Fund's
     assets grow:  0.75% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets,
     0.72% of the next $200 million,  0.69% of the next $200  million,  0.66% of
     the next $200 million, 0.60% of the next $700 million, and 0.58% of average
     annual net assets over $1.5 billion. The Fund's management fee for its last
     fiscal year ended  August 31,  2004 was 0.75% of average  annual net assets
     for each class of shares.

PENDING  LITIGATION.  Six lawsuits  have been filed as putative  derivative  and
class actions against the Fund's  investment  Manager,  Distributor and Transfer
Agent,  some of the  Oppenheimer  funds,  including  the Fund and  Directors  or
Trustees of some of those funds. The complaints  allege that the Manager charged
excessive fees for distribution  and other costs,  improperly used assets of the
funds  in the form of  directed  brokerage  commissions  and  12b-1  fees to pay
brokers to promote sales of Oppenheimer  funds, and failed to properly  disclose
the use of fund assets to make those  payments in  violation  of the  Investment
Company Act and the  Investment  Advisers Act of 1940.  The  complaints  further
allege that by permitting and/or  participating in those actions,  the defendant
Directors  breached  their  fiduciary  duties  to fund  shareholders  under  the
Investment  Company Act and at common law.  Those  lawsuits were filed on August
31, 2004,  September 3, 2004,  September 14, 2004, September 14, 2004, September
21, 2004 and September 22, 2004,  respectively,  in the U.S.  District Court for
the Southern District of New York. The complaints seek unspecified  compensatory
and punitive damages,  rescission of the funds' investment advisory  agreements,
an accounting of all fees paid,  and an award of attorneys'  fees and litigation
expenses.

     The  Manager  and the  Distributor  believe  the claims  asserted  in these
lawsuits to be without  merit,  and intend to defend the suits  vigorously.  The
Manager and the  Distributor do not believe that the pending  actions are likely
to have a  material  adverse  effect on the Fund or on their  ability to perform
their respective investment advisory or distribution agreements with the Fund.

About Your Account

How to Buy Shares

You can buy shares  several ways, as described  below.  The Fund's  Distributor,
OppenheimerFunds  Distributor,  Inc.,  may  appoint  servicing  agents to accept
purchase (and redemption) orders. The Distributor,  in its sole discretion,  may
reject any purchase order for the Fund's shares.

Buying Shares Through Your Dealer. You can buy shares through any dealer, broker
     or financial  institution  that has a sales agreement with the Distributor.
     Your dealer will place your order with the  Distributor  on your behalf.  A
     broker or dealer may charge for that service.

Buying Shares Through the Distributor.  Complete an OppenheimerFunds new account
     application  and  return  it  with a  check  payable  to  "OppenheimerFunds
     Distributor, Inc." Mail it to P.O. Box 5270, Denver, Colorado 80217. If you
     don't list a dealer on the  application,  the Distributor  will act as your
     agent in buying the shares.  However,  we  recommend  that you discuss your
     investment  with a financial  advisor before you make a purchase to be sure
     that the Fund is appropriate for you.
o    Paying by Federal Funds Wire.  Shares purchased through the Distributor may
     be paid for by Federal Funds wire. The minimum investment is $2,500. Before
     sending a wire, call the Distributor's Wire Department at 1.800.225.5677 to
     notify the Distributor of the wire and to receive further instructions.
o    Buying Shares Through OppenheimerFunds  AccountLink.  With AccountLink, you
     pay for shares by electronic funds transfers from your bank account. Shares
     are  purchased  for your  account  by a  transfer  of money  from your bank
     account through the Automated  Clearing House (ACH) system. You can provide
     those instructions  automatically,  under an Asset Builder Plan,  described
     below, or by telephone instructions using OppenheimerFunds  PhoneLink, also
     described below. Please refer to "AccountLink," below for more details.
o    Buying Shares Through Asset Builder Plans.  You may purchase  shares of the
     Fund  automatically  each  month  from  your  account  at a bank  or  other
     financial institution under an Asset Builder Plan with AccountLink. Details
     are in the  Asset  Builder  Application  and the  Statement  of  Additional
     Information.

WHAT IS THE MINIMUM  AMOUNT YOU MUST  INVEST?  In most  cases,  you can buy Fund
shares  with  a  minimum  initial  investment  of  $1,000  and  make  additional
investments  at any time  with as  little as $50.  There  are  reduced  minimums
available under the following special investment plans:
o    If you  establish  one of the many types of  retirement  plan accounts that
     OppenheimerFunds offers, more fully described below under "Special Investor
     Services," you can start your account with as little as $500.
o    By using an Asset  Builder Plan or Automatic  Exchange Plan (details are in
     the Statement of Additional Information), or government allotment plan, you
     can make  subsequent  investments  (after making the initial  investment of
     $500) for as little as $50. For any type of account  established  under one
     of these plans prior to November 1, 2002, the minimum additional investment
     will remain $25.
o    The minimum investment  requirement does not apply to reinvesting dividends
     from the Fund or other  Oppenheimer  funds (a list of them  appears  in the
     Statement of Additional Information, or you can ask your dealer or call the
     Transfer Agent), or reinvesting  distributions  from unit investment trusts
     that have made arrangements with the Distributor.

AT WHAT PRICE ARE SHARES SOLD?  Shares are sold at their offering price which is
the net asset value per share plus any initial  sales charge that  applies.  The
offering price that applies to a purchase order is based on the next calculation
of the net asset value per share that is made after the Distributor receives the
purchase order at its offices in Colorado,  or after any agent  appointed by the
Distributor receives the order.

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

     The net asset value per share for a class of shares on a "regular  business
     day"  is  determined  by  dividing  the  value  of the  Fund's  net  assets
     attributable  to  that  class  by  the  number  of  shares  of  that  class
     outstanding on that day. To determine net asset values, the Fund assets are
     valued  primarily  on the basis of  current  market  quotations.  If market
     quotations  are not readily  available  or do not  accurately  reflect fair
     value for a security (in the Manager's  judgment) or if a security's  value
     has been  materially  affected by events  occurring  after the close of the
     exchange  or market on which  the  security  is  principally  traded,  that
     security  may be  valued  by  another  method  that the  Board of  Trustees
     believes  accurately   reflects  the  fair  value.   Because  some  foreign
     securities  trade in markets and on exchanges  that operate on weekends and
     U.S.  holidays,  the values of some of the Fund's foreign  investments  may
     change on days when investors cannot buy or redeem Fund shares.

     The Board has adopted  valuation  procedures for the Fund and has delegated
     the  day-to-day   responsibility  for  fair  value  determinations  to  the
     Manager's Valuation Committee. Fair value determinations by the Manager are
     subject  to  review,  approval  and  ratification  by the Board at its next
     scheduled meeting after the fair valuations are determined.  In determining
     whether  current  market prices are readily  available  and  reliable,  the
     Manager  monitors the information it receives in the ordinary course of its
     investment  management  responsibilities  for  significant  events  that it
     believes in good faith will affect the market  prices of the  securities of
     issuers  held by the Fund.  Those may  include  events  affecting  specific
     issuers (for example,  a halt in trading of the  securities of an issuer on
     an exchange during the trading day) or events affecting  securities markets
     (for example, a foreign securities market closes early because of a natural
     disaster).

     If, after the close of the principal market on which a security held by the
     Fund is traded and before the time as of which the Fund's net asset  values
     are calculated that day, a significant event occurs that the Manager learns
     of and  believes  in the  exercise  of its  judgment  will cause a material
     change in the value of that security from the closing price of the security
     on the  principal  market on which it is traded,  the Manager  will use its
     best judgment to determine a fair value for that security.

     The Manager  believes  that  foreign  securities  values may be affected by
     volatility that occurs in U.S.  markets on a trading day after the close of
     foreign  securities  markets.   The  Manager's  fair  valuation  procedures
     therefore  include a procedure  whereby  foreign  securities  prices may be
     "fair valued" to take those factors into account.

The  Offering Price. To receive the offering price for a particular day, in most
     cases the  Distributor or its  designated  agent must receive your order by
     the time the  Exchange  closes that day. If your order is received on a day
     when the Exchange is closed or after it has closed,  the order will receive
     the next offering price that is determined after your order is received.

Buying Through a Dealer.  If you buy shares  through a dealer,  your dealer must
     receive  the  order by the close of the  Exchange  and  transmit  it to the
     Distributor  so that it is  received  before  the  Distributor's  close  of
     business on a regular  business  day  (normally  5:00 P.M.) to receive that
     day's offering price, unless your dealer has made alternative  arrangements
     with the Distributor.  Otherwise,  the order will receive the next offering
     price that is determined.


     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
     WHAT CLASSES OF SHARES DOES THE FUND OFFER?  The Fund offers investors five
     different  classes of shares.  The  different  classes of shares  represent
     investments  in the same  portfolio  of  securities,  but the  classes  are
     subject to different  expenses and will likely have different share prices.
     When you buy shares,  be sure to specify the class of shares. If you do not
     choose  a  class,   your  investment  will  be  made  in  Class  A  shares.
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Class A Shares. If you buy Class A shares,  you pay an initial sales charge
     (on investments up to $1 million for regular accounts or lesser amounts for
     certain  retirement  plans).  The  amount of that  sales  charge  will vary
     depending  on the amount you invest.  The sales  charge rates are listed in
     "How      Can      You      Buy      Class      A      Shares?"      below.
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Class B Shares.  If you buy Class B shares,  you pay no sales charge at the
     time of purchase,  but you will pay an annual  asset-based sales charge. If
     you sell your shares within 6 years of buying them, you will normally pay a
     contingent  deferred sales charge.  That  contingent  deferred sales charge
     varies depending on how long you own your shares,  as described in "How Can
     You          Buy          Class         B          Shares?"          below.
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Class C Shares.  If you buy Class C shares,  you pay no sales charge at the
     time of purchase,  but you will pay an annual  asset-based sales charge. If
     you sell your shares within 12 months of buying them, you will normally pay
     a contingent  deferred  sales charge of 1.0%,  as described in "How Can You
     Buy             Class             C             Shares?"             below.
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Class N Shares.  If you buy Class N shares  (available only through certain
     retirement plans), you pay no sales charge at the time of purchase, but you
     will pay an annual asset-based sales charge. If you sell your shares within
     18 months of the retirement  plan's first  purchase of Class N shares,  you
     may pay a contingent  deferred  sales charge of 1.0%,  as described in "How
     Can You Buy Class N Shares?" below.

     Class Y Shares.  Class Y shares are offered  only to certain  institutional
     investors that have a special agreement with the Distributor.

WHICH  CLASS OF SHARES  SHOULD YOU  CHOOSE?  Once you decide that the Fund is an
appropriate investment for you, the decision as to which class of shares is best
suited to your needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with
your financial advisor. Some factors to consider are how much you plan to invest
and how long you plan to hold your  investment.  If your  goals  and  objectives
change  over  time  and you  plan to  purchase  additional  shares,  you  should
re-evaluate those factors to see if you should consider another class of shares.
The Fund's operating costs that apply to a class of shares and the effect of the
different  types of sales charges on your  investment  will vary your investment
results over time.

     The  discussion  below  is  not  intended  to  be  investment  advice  or a
recommendation,  because each investor's financial considerations are different.
The discussion below assumes that you will purchase only one class of shares and
not a combination of shares of different classes. Of course,  these examples are
based on  approximations  of the effects of current  sales  charges and expenses
projected over time, and do not detail all of the  considerations in selecting a
class of shares.  You should analyze your options  carefully with your financial
advisor before making that choice.

How  Long Do You Expect to Hold Your  Investment?  While future  financial needs
     cannot be  predicted  with  certainty,  knowing how long you expect to hold
     your  investment  will assist you in  selecting  the  appropriate  class of
     shares.  Because of the effect of  class-based  expenses,  your choice will
     also depend on how much you plan to invest. For example,  the reduced sales
     charges  available  for larger  purchases of Class A shares may, over time,
     offset  the effect of paying an initial  sales  charge on your  investment,
     compared to the effect over time of higher  class-based  expenses on shares
     of Class  B,  Class C or Class N. For  retirement  plans  that  qualify  to
     purchase Class N shares, Class N shares will generally be more advantageous
     than Class B and Class C shares.

o    Investing for the Shorter  Term.  While the Fund is meant to be a long-term
     investment,  if you have a relatively  short-term  investment horizon (that
     is, you plan to hold your shares for not more than six  years),  you should
     most likely invest in Class A or Class C shares rather than Class B shares.
     That is  because  of the effect of the Class B  contingent  deferred  sales
     charge if you redeem within six years, as well as the effect of the Class B
     asset-based  sales  charge on the  investment  return for that class in the
     short-term.  Class C shares might be the appropriate choice (especially for
     investments  of less than  $100,000),  because  there is no  initial  sales
     charge on Class C shares, and the contingent deferred sales charge does not
     apply to amounts you sell after holding them one year.

However,  if you plan to invest more than $100,000 for the shorter term, then as
your investment  horizon increases toward six years, Class C shares might not be
as advantageous as Class A shares.  That is because the annual asset-based sales
charge on Class C shares  will have a greater  impact on your  account  over the
longer  term than the  reduced  front-end  sales  charge  available  for  larger
purchases of Class A shares.

If you invest $1 million or more,  in most cases Class A shares will be the most
advantageous choice, no matter how long you intend to hold your shares. For that
reason, the Distributor  normally will not accept purchase orders of $100,000 or
more of Class B shares  or $1  million  or more of Class C shares  from a single
investor.  Dealers or other financial intermediaries purchasing shares for their
customers in omnibus accounts are responsible for compliance with those limits.

o    Investing for the Longer Term. If you are investing  less than $100,000 for
     the  longer-term,  for  example for  retirement,  and do not expect to need
     access  to your  money  for  seven  years  or more,  Class B shares  may be
     appropriate.

Are  There  Differences  in Account  Features  That Matter to You?  Some account
     features may not be available to Class B, Class C and Class N shareholders.
     Other  features  may  not  be  advisable  (because  of  the  effect  of the
     contingent  deferred  sales  charge)  for  Class  B,  Class  C and  Class N
     shareholders.  Therefore,  you should  carefully review how you plan to use
     your investment account before deciding which class of shares to buy.

Additionally, the dividends payable to Class B, Class C and Class N shareholders
will be reduced by the  additional  expenses borne by those classes that are not
borne by Class A or Class Y  shares,  such as the  Class B,  Class C and Class N
asset-based  sales charge  described  below and in the  Statement of  Additional
Information.

How  Do Share Classes Affect  Payments to Your Broker?  A financial  advisor may
     receive  different  compensation  for  selling one class of shares than for
     selling  another  class.  It is important to remember that Class B, Class C
     and Class N contingent deferred sales charges and asset-based sales charges
     have the same  purpose as the  front-end  sales  charge on sales of Class A
     shares:  to compensate the Distributor for concessions and expenses it pays
     to dealers and financial  institutions for selling shares.  The Distributor
     may pay  additional  compensation  from  its own  resources  to  securities
     dealers  or  financial  institutions  based upon the value of shares of the
     Fund owned by the dealer or  financial  institution  for its own account or
     for its customers.

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

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

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

SPECIAL SALES CHARGE  ARRANGEMENTS  AND WAIVERS.  Appendix B to the Statement of
Additional  Information  details the  conditions for the waiver of sales charges
that apply in certain  cases,  and the special  sales charge rates that apply to
purchases of shares of the Fund by certain groups, or under specified retirement
plan arrangements or in other special types of transactions. To receive a waiver
or special sales charge rate, you must advise the  Distributor  when  purchasing
shares or the  Transfer  Agent when  redeeming  shares that a special  condition
applies.

Can You Reduce Class A Sales Charges? You and your spouse may be eligible to buy
Class A shares of the Fund at reduced  sales charge rates set forth in the table
above under the Fund's "Right of Accumulation" or a "Letter of Intent." The Fund
reserves the right to modify or to cease offering these programs at any time.

o    Right of  Accumulation.  To reduce the Class A front-end sales charge under
     the rates in the table above that apply to larger purchases, you can add to
     the amount of your  current  purchase  the value of  investments  currently
     being  made by you and  your  spouse  (or  previously  made by you and your
     spouse and still  held) in Class A and Class B shares of the Fund and other
     Oppenheimer  funds (a list is in the  Statement of  Additional  Information
     under "How to Buy Shares - The  Oppenheimer  Funds").  You may not  include
     Class A shares of Oppenheimer  Money Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer  Cash
     Reserves  on which  you did not pay a sales  charge  for this  purpose.  In
     totaling  your  holdings,  you may  count  shares  held in your  individual
     accounts  (including IRAs and 403(b) plans),  your joint accounts with your
     spouse,  or accounts you or your spouse hold as trustees or  custodians  on
     behalf of your  children who are minors.  A fiduciary  can count all shares
     purchased  for a  trust,  estate  or  other  fiduciary  account  (including
     employee  benefit plans for the same employer) that has multiple  accounts.
     To  qualify  for  this  Right of  Accumulation,  if you are  buying  shares
     directly  from the Fund you must  inform  the  Fund's  Distributor  of your
     eligibility  and holdings at the time of your  purchase.  If you are buying
     shares   through  your   financial   intermediary   you  must  notify  your
     intermediary of your eligibility for this Right of Accumulation at the time
     of your purchase.

     To count  shares of  eligible  Oppenheimer  funds held in accounts at other
intermediaries under this Right of Accumulation, you may be requested to provide
the  Distributor  or your  current  intermediary  (depending  on the way you are
buying  your  shares) a copy of each  account  statement  showing  your  current
holdings of the Fund or other eligible  Oppenheimer funds,  including statements
for  accounts  held by you and your  spouse or in  retirement  plans or trust or
custodial  accounts for minor children as described  above.  The  Distributor or
intermediary  through  which you are buying shares will combine the value of all
your eligible  Oppenheimer fund accounts based on the current offering price per
share to determine what Class A sales charge  breakpoints you may qualify for on
your current purchase.

o    Letters of Intent.  You may also reduce the Class A front-end  sales charge
     on  current  purchases  of shares of the Fund  under the rates in the table
     above by  submitting  a Letter of Intent  to the  Distributor.  A Letter of
     Intent is a written  statement of your intention to purchase Class A and/or
     Class B shares of the Fund (and  other  Oppenheimer  funds  except  Class A
     shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund and Oppenheimer Cash Reserves) over
     a 13-month period.  The total amount of your intended  purchases of Class A
     and Class B shares will  determine  the reduced sales charge rate that will
     apply to Class A shares of the Fund purchased  during that period.  You can
     include  purchases  made  up to 90 days  before  the  date  of the  Letter.
     Submitting  a Letter  of  Intent  does not  obligate  you to  purchase  the
     specified amount of shares. You can also apply the Right of Accumulation to
     these purchases.

     If you do not complete the Letter of Intent, the front-end sales charge you
paid on your  purchases  will be  recalculated  to reflect  the actual  value of
shares you purchased. A certain portion of your shares will be held in escrow by
the Fund's Transfer Agent for this purpose. Please refer to "How to Buy Shares -
Letters of Intent" in the Fund's  Statement of Additional  Information  for more
complete information.

Other  Special  Sales  Charge  Arrangements  and  Waivers.   The  Fund  and  the
Distributor  offer other  opportunities to purchase shares without  front-end or
contingent  deferred sales charges under the programs  described below. The Fund
reserves the right to amend or  discontinue  these  programs at any time without
prior notice.

o    Dividend   Reinvestment.   Dividends  and/or  capital  gains  distributions
     received by a shareholder  from the Fund may be reinvested in shares of the
     Fund or any of the other Oppenheimer funds without sales charge, at the net
     asset  value per share in effect on the payable  date.  You must notify the
     Transfer  Agent in writing to elect this  option and must have an  existing
     account in the fund selected for reinvestment.

o    Exchanges  of  Shares.  Shares of the Fund may be  exchanged  for shares of
     certain other Oppenheimer funds at net asset value per share at the time of
     exchange,  without sales charge, and shares of the Fund can be purchased by
     exchange of shares of certain  other  Oppenheimer  funds on the same basis.
     Please  refer to "How to  Exchange  Shares" in this  Prospectus  and in the
     Statement  of  Additional   Information  for  more  details,   including  a
     discussion of circumstances in which sales charges may apply on exchanges.
o    Reinvestment Privilege.  Within six months of a redemption of certain Class
     A and Class B shares,  the proceeds may be  reinvested in Class A shares of
     the Fund without sales charge.  This  privilege  applies to  redemptions of
     Class A shares that were  subject to an initial  sales charge or Class A or
     Class B shares that were subject to a contingent deferred sales charge when
     redeemed.  The investor must ask the Transfer  Agent for that  privilege at
     the time of  reinvestment  and must  identify  the  account  from which the
     redemption was made.
o    Other Special  Reductions and Waivers.  The Fund and the Distributor  offer
     additional  arrangements to reduce or eliminate  front-end sales charges or
     to  waive   contingent   deferred   sales  charges  for  certain  types  of
     transactions  and for certain  classes of investors  (primarily  retirement
     plans that purchase shares in special  programs  through the  Distributor).
     These are  described  in greater  detail in Appendix B to the  Statement of
     Additional  Information,  which is also  available on the  OppenheimerFunds
     website, at www.oppenheimerfunds.com (under the hyperlinks "Access Accounts
     and Services - Investor  Service  Center").  To receive a waiver or special
     sales  charge  rate under these  programs,  the  purchaser  must notify the
     Distributor (or other financial intermediary through which shares are being
     purchased) at the time of purchase or notify the Transfer Agent at the time
     of redeeming  shares for those  waivers that apply to  contingent  deferred
     sales charges.
o    Purchases by Certain  Retirement Plans. There is no initial sales charge on
     purchases of Class A shares of the Fund by (1)  retirement  plans that have
     $10  million or more in plan  assets and that have  entered  into a special
     agreement with the Distributor and by (2) retirement plans that are part of
     a  retirement  plan product or platform  offered by banks,  broker-dealers,
     financial advisors, insurance companies or record-keepers that have entered
     into a  special  agreement  with  the  Distributor  for this  purpose.  The
     Distributor currently pays dealers of record concessions in an amount equal
     to 0.25% of the purchase price of Class A shares by those  retirement plans
     from its own resources at the time of sale,  subject to certain  exceptions
     described in "Retirement Plans" in the Statement of Additional Information.
     No contingent  deferred sales charge is charged upon the redemption of such
     shares.

ClassA Contingent  Deferred  Sales  Charge.  There is no initial sales charge on
     purchases  of Class A shares  of any one or more of the  Oppenheimer  funds
     aggregating  $1  million  or more,  or on  purchases  of Class A shares  by
     certain retirement plans that satisfied certain requirements prior to March
     1, 2001  ("grandfathered  retirement  accounts").  However,  those  Class A
     shares may be subject to a Class A contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  as
     described below. Retirement plans holding shares of Oppenheimer funds in an
     omnibus  account(s) for the benefit of plan  participants  in the name of a
     fiduciary or financial intermediary (other than  OppenheimerFunds-sponsored
     Single DB Plus plans) are not permitted to make initial  purchases of Class
     A shares subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.

The Distributor pays dealers of record concessions in an amount equal to 1.0% of
purchases of $1 million or more other than purchases by grandfathered retirement
accounts. For grandfathered  retirement accounts, the concession is 0.75% of the
first  $2.5  million of  purchases  plus  0.25% of  purchases  in excess of $2.5
million.  In either case, the concession will not be paid on purchases of shares
by exchange or that were  previously  subject to a  front-end  sales  charge and
dealer  concession.    If you  redeem  any of those  shares  within an  18-month
"holding  period"  measured  from the  beginning of the calendar  month of their
purchase,  a contingent  deferred  sales charge  (called the "Class A contingent
deferred sales charge") may be deducted from the redemption proceeds. That sales
charge will be equal to 1.0% of the lesser of: o the  aggregate  net asset value
of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption  (excluding shares purchased by
reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions);  or o the original net
asset value of the redeemed shares.

The Class A  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  will not exceed the  aggregate
amount of the concessions  the Distributor  paid to your dealer on all purchases
of Class A shares of all  Oppenheimer  funds you made that were  subject  to the
Class A contingent deferred sales charge.

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

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

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

5 - 6                                                       1.0%

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

In the table, a "year" is a 12-month period. In applying the contingent deferred
sales  charge,  all  purchases  are  considered  to have  been made on the first
regular business day of the month in which the purchase was made.

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

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

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

     Class N shares are sold at net asset value without an initial sales charge.
A contingent  deferred  sales charge of 1.0% will be imposed upon the redemption
of Class N shares, if:

o    The  group  retirement  plan  is  terminated  or  Class  N  shares  of  all
     Oppenheimer  funds are  terminated as an investment  option of the plan and
     Class N shares  are  redeemed  within 18  months  after  the  plan's  first
     purchase of Class N shares of any Oppenheimer fund, or

o    With respect to an IRA or 403(b) plan,  Class N shares are redeemed  within
     18 months of the plan's first purchase of Class N shares of any Oppenheimer
     fund.

     Retirement  plans  that offer  Class N shares  may  impose  charges on plan
participant  accounts.  The  procedures  for  buying,  selling,  exchanging  and
transferring  the  Fund's  other  classes of shares  (other  than the time those
orders must be received by the  Distributor  or Transfer  Agent in Colorado) and
the special account features  applicable to purchasers of those other classes of
shares  described  elsewhere in this  Prospectus  do not apply to Class N shares
offered  through a group  retirement  plan.  Instructions  for buying,  selling,
exchanging or  transferring  Class N shares offered  through a group  retirement
plan must be submitted by the plan, not by plan  participants  for whose benefit
the shares are held.

Who Can Buy Class Y Shares? Class Y shares are sold at net asset value per share
without a sales charge  directly to  institutional  investors  that have special
agreements  with the Distributor  for this purpose.  They may include  insurance
companies,  registered investment companies,  employee benefit plans and Section
529  plans,  among  others.  Individual  investors  cannot  buy  Class Y  shares
directly.

     An  institutional  investor  that buys  Class Y shares  for its  customers'
accounts  may impose  charges on those  accounts.  The  procedures  for  buying,
selling,  exchanging and  transferring the Fund's other classes of shares (other
than the time those orders must be received by the Distributor or Transfer Agent
at  their  Colorado  office)  and the  special  account  features  available  to
investors  buying those other  classes of shares do not apply to Class Y shares.
Instructions for buying, selling, exchanging or transferring Class Y shares must
be submitted  by the  institutional  investor,  not by its  customers  for whose
benefit the shares are held.

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS.

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A
     shares.  It reimburses the  Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred
     for services  provided to accounts that hold Class A shares.  Reimbursement
     is made  quarterly  at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average  annual
     net assets of Class A shares of the Fund.  The  Distributor  currently uses
     all of those  fees to pay  dealers,  brokers,  banks  and  other  financial
     institutions  quarterly for providing  personal  service and maintenance of
     accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. With respect to Class
     A shares subject to a Class A contingent deferred sales charge purchased by
     grandfathered  retirement accounts,  the Distributor pays the 0.25% service
     fee to dealers  in advance  for the first year after the shares are sold by
     the dealer.  The  Distributor  retains the first year's service fee paid by
     the Fund.  After the  shares  have  been held by  grandfathered  retirement
     accounts for a year, the  Distributor  pays the service fee to dealers on a
     quarterly basis.

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund
     has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
     shares to pay the  Distributor  for its services and costs in  distributing
     Class B,  Class C and  Class N shares  and  servicing  accounts.  Under the
     plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual  asset-based sales charge of
     0.75%  on Class B and  Class C shares  and  0.25%  on Class N  shares.  The
     Distributor  also  receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under the Class
     B, Class C and Class N plans.

     The asset-based  sales charge and service fees increase Class B and Class C
     expenses by 1.0% and  increase  Class N expenses by 0.50% of the net assets
     per year of the  respective  class.  Because these fees are paid out of the
     Fund's assets on an on-going basis,  over time these fees will increase the
     cost of your  investment  and may cost you more than  other  types of sales
     charges.

     The Distributor  uses the service fees to compensate  dealers for providing
     personal  services  for  accounts  that  hold  Class B,  Class C or Class N
     shares. The Distributor  normally pays the 0.25% service fees to dealers in
     advance for the first year after the shares are sold by the  dealer.  After
     the shares have been held for a year, the Distributor pays the service fees
     to dealers on a quarterly basis.

     The Distributor  currently pays a sales concession of 3.75% of the purchase
     price of Class B shares to dealers  from its own  resources  at the time of
     sale.  Including  the advance of the service  fee, the total amount paid by
     the  Distributor  to the  dealer  at the time of sale of Class B shares  is
     therefore 4.00% of the purchase price. The Distributor normally retains the
     Class  B  asset-based  sales  charge.   See  the  Statement  of  Additional
     Information for exceptions.

     The Distributor  currently pays a sales concession of 0.75% of the purchase
     price of Class C shares to dealers  from its own  resources  at the time of
     sale.  Including  the advance of the service  fee, the total amount paid by
     the  Distributor  to the  dealer  at the time of sale of Class C shares  is
     therefore 1.0% of the purchase price.  The Distributor pays the asset-based
     sales charge as an ongoing  concession to the dealer on Class C shares that
     have been outstanding for a year or more. The Distributor  normally retains
     the asset-based  sales charge on Class C shares during the first year after
     the purchase of Class C shares. See the Statement of Additional Information
     for exceptions.

     The Distributor  currently pays a sales concession of 0.75% of the purchase
     price of Class N shares to dealers  from its own  resources  at the time of
     sale.  Including  the advance of the service  fee, the total amount paid by
     the  Distributor  to the  dealer  at the time of sale of Class N shares  is
     therefore 1.0% of the purchase price. The Distributor  normally retains the
     asset-based sales charge on Class N shares. See the Statement of Additional
     Information for exceptions.

     Under certain  circumstances,  the  Distributor  will pay the full Class B,
     Class C or Class N  asset-based  sales  charge and the  service  fee to the
     dealer beginning in the first year after purchase of such shares in lieu of
     paying the dealer the sales  concession and the advance of the first year's
     service  fee at the  time of  purchase,  if there  is a  special  agreement
     between the dealer and the Distributor.  In those circumstances,  the sales
     concession will not be paid to the dealer.

     For Class C shares purchased through the OppenheimerFunds  Recordkeeper Pro
     program,  the Distributor will pay the Class C asset-based  sales charge to
     the dealer of record in the first year after the purchase of such shares in
     lieu of paying the dealer a sales  concession at the time of purchase.  The
     Distributor  will use the service  fee it  receives  from the Fund on those
     shares to reimburse FASCorp for providing  personal services to the Class C
     accounts holding those shares.

     In addition,  the Manager and the Distributor may make substantial payments
     to dealers or other  financial  intermediaries  and service  providers  for
     distribution  and/or  shareholder  servicing  activities,  out of their own
     resources,  including  the  profits  from the  advisory  fees  the  Manager
     receives from the Fund. Some of these distribution-related  payments may be
     made to dealers or financial  intermediaries for marketing,  promotional or
     related  expenses;  these  payments  are  often  referred  to  as  "revenue
     sharing."  In some  circumstances,  those types of  payments  may create an
     incentive for a dealer or financial  intermediary or its representatives to
     recommend  or offer  shares of the Fund or other  Oppenheimer  funds to its
     customers.  You should ask your dealer or financial  intermediary  for more
     details about any such payments it receives.

How to Sell Shares

You can sell  (redeem)  some or all of your shares on any regular  business day.
Your shares will be sold at the next net asset value calculated after your order
is received in proper form (which means that it must comply with the  procedures
described  below) and is accepted by the Transfer Agent.  The Fund lets you sell
your shares by writing a letter,  by wire, or by telephone.  You can also set up
Automatic  Withdrawal  Plans to redeem  shares on a regular  basis.  If you have
questions  about any of these  procedures,  and  especially if you are redeeming
shares in a special  situation,  such as due to the death of the owner or from a
retirement   plan   account,   please  call  the  Transfer   Agent   first,   at
1.800.225.5677, for assistance.

Certain Requests Require a Signature Guarantee. To protect you and the Fund from
     fraud,  the  following  redemption  requests  must be in  writing  and must
     include a signature  guarantee (although there may be other situations that
     also require a signature guarantee):
     o    You wish to redeem more than $100,000 and receive a check.
     o    The redemption check is not payable to all shareholders  listed on the
          account statement.
     o    The  redemption  check is not sent to the  address  of  record on your
          account statement.
     o    Shares are being  transferred to a Fund account with a different owner
          or name.
     o    Shares are being redeemed by someone (such as an Executor)  other than
          the owners.

Where Can You Have Your  Signature  Guaranteed?  The Transfer Agent will accept a
     guarantee  of  your  signature  by  a  number  of  financial  institutions,
     including:

     o    a U.S. bank, trust company, credit union or savings association,

     o    a foreign bank that has a U.S. correspondent bank,

     o    a U.S. registered dealer or broker in securities, municipal securities
          or government securities, or

     o    a  U.S.  national  securities   exchange,   a  registered   securities
          association or a clearing agency.

If you are signing on behalf of a corporation,  partnership or other business or
as a fiduciary, you must also include your title in the signature.

     Retirement Plan Accounts. There are special procedures to sell shares in an
          OppenheimerFunds  retirement plan account. Call the Transfer Agent for
          a  distribution   request  form.   Special   income  tax   withholding
          requirements  apply to distributions  from retirement  plans. You must
          submit a withholding form with your redemption  request to avoid delay
          in  getting  your money and if you do not want tax  withheld.  If your
          employer holds your retirement plan account for you in the name of the
          plan,  you must ask the plan trustee or  administrator  to request the
          sale of the Fund shares in your plan account.

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

HOW DO you SELL SHARES BY MAIL? Write a letter of instruction that includes:

     o   Your name
     o   The Fund's name
     o   Your Fund account number (from your account statement)
     o   The dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed
     o   Any special payment instructions
     o   Any share certificates for the shares you are selling
     o   The  signatures  of all  registered  owners  exactly as the account is
         registered, and
     o   Any special documents requested by the Transfer Agent to assure proper
         authorization of the person asking to sell the shares.

Use the following address for                 Send courier or express mail
requests by mail:                             requests to:
OppenheimerFunds Services                     OppenheimerFunds Services
P.O. Box 5270                                 10200 E. Girard Avenue, Building D
Denver, Colorado 80217                        Denver, Colorado 80231

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

     o    To redeem shares through a service  representative or automatically on
          PhoneLink, call 1.800.225.5677. Whichever method you use, you may have
          a check sent to the address on the account statement,  or, if you have
          linked your Fund account to your bank account on AccountLink,  you may
          have the proceeds sent to that bank account.

Are There Limits on Amounts Redeemed by Telephone? Telephone Redemptions Paid by
Check. Up to $100,000 may be redeemed by telephone in any seven-day period.  The
check  must be payable to all owners of record of the shares and must be sent to
the address on the account  statement.  This service is not available  within 30
days of changing the address on an account.

Telephone Redemptions Through AccountLink or by Wire. There are no dollar limits
     on telephone redemption proceeds sent to a bank account designated when you
     establish AccountLink.  Normally the ACH transfer to your bank is initiated
     on the business day after the redemption.  You do not receive  dividends on
     the  proceeds  of the shares  you  redeemed  while  they are  waiting to be
     transferred.

If you have requested  Federal Funds wire privileges for your account,  the wire
of the  redemption  proceeds  will  normally  be  transmitted  on the next  bank
business day after the shares are redeemed. There is a possibility that the wire
may be delayed up to seven days to enable the Fund to sell securities to pay the
redemption proceeds.  No dividends are accrued or paid on the proceeds of shares
that have been redeemed and are awaiting transmittal by wire.

CAN YOU SELL SHARES THROUGH your DEALER?  The Distributor has made  arrangements
to repurchase Fund shares from dealers and brokers on behalf of their customers.
Brokers or dealers may charge for that  service.  If your shares are held in the
name of your dealer, you must redeem them through your dealer.

HOW CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES AFFECT REDEMPTIONS. If you purchase shares
subject  to a Class A,  Class B, Class C or Class N  contingent  deferred  sales
charge and redeem any of those shares during the  applicable  holding period for
the class of shares, the contingent  deferred sales charge will be deducted from
the  redemption  proceeds  (unless you are  eligible  for a waiver of that sales
charge  based  on the  categories  listed  in  Appendix  B to the  Statement  of
Additional Information and you advise the Transfer Agent of your eligibility for
the waiver when you place your redemption request.)

     A contingent  deferred  sales charge will be based on the lesser of the net
asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption or the original net
asset value. A contingent deferred sales charge is not imposed on:
o    the amount of your account  value  represented  by an increase in net asset
     value over the initial purchase price,
o    shares  purchased  by  the  reinvestment  of  dividends  or  capital  gains
     distributions, or
o    shares redeemed in the special circumstances described in Appendix B to the
     Statement of Additional Information.

     To  determine  whether a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  applies to a
redemption, the Fund redeems shares in the following order:
     1.  shares  acquired  by  reinvestment  of  dividends  and  capital  gains
         distributions,
     2.  shares held for the holding period that applies to the class, and
     3.  shares held the longest during the holding period.

     Contingent  deferred sales charges are not charged when you exchange shares
of the Fund for shares of other Oppenheimer funds. However, if you exchange them
within the  applicable  contingent  deferred sales charge  holding  period,  the
holding period will carry over to the fund whose shares you acquire.  Similarly,
if you acquire shares of this Fund by exchanging  shares of another  Oppenheimer
fund that are still  subject  to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  holding
period, that holding period will carry over to this Fund.

How to Exchange Shares

To exchange shares, you must meet several conditions:
     o    Shares of the fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in
          your state of residence.
     o    The prospectuses of both funds must offer the exchange privilege.
     o    You must hold the shares you buy when you  establish  your account for
          at least seven days before you can exchange them. After the account is
          open seven days, you can exchange shares every regular business day.
     o    You must meet the  minimum  purchase  requirements  for the fund whose
          shares you purchase by exchange.
     o    Before   exchanging  into  a  fund,  you  must  obtain  and  read  its
          prospectus.

     Shares of a particular  class of the Fund may be exchanged  only for shares
of the same class in the other Oppenheimer funds. For example,  you can exchange
Class A shares of this Fund only for  Class A shares of  another  fund.  In some
cases, sales charges may be imposed on exchange transactions.  For tax purposes,
exchanges  of  shares  involve  a sale of the  shares  of the fund you own and a
purchase of the shares of the other fund,  which may result in a capital gain or
loss.  Please refer to "How to Exchange  Shares" in the  Statement of Additional
Information for more details.

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

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

Written Exchange  Requests.  Submit an  OppenheimerFunds  Exchange Request form,
     signed by all owners of the account.  Send it to the Transfer  Agent at the
     address on the back  cover.  Exchanges  of shares  held under  certificates
     cannot be processed  unless the Transfer  Agent  receives the  certificates
     with the request.

Telephone Exchange  Requests.  Telephone exchange requests may be made either by
     calling  a  service  representative  or by using  PhoneLink  for  automated
     exchanges by calling  1.800.225.5677.  Telephone exchanges may be made only
     between  accounts  that are  registered  with the same name(s) and address.
     Shares held under certificates may not be exchanged by telephone.

ARE THERE  LIMITATIONS  ON EXCHANGES?  There are certain  exchange  policies you
should be aware of:

o    Shares are redeemed from one fund and are normally purchased from the other
     fund in the same  transaction on the same regular business day on which the
     Transfer Agent or its agent (such as a financial  intermediary  holding the
     investor's  shares in an omnibus account) receives an exchange request that
     conforms to the policies  described above. It must be received by the close
     of The New York Stock  Exchange  that day,  which is normally 4:00 P.M. but
     may be earlier on some days. The Transfer Agent may delay the  reinvestment
     of the  proceeds of an exchange  up to seven days if it  determines  in its
     discretion  that an earlier  transmittal of the redemption  proceeds to the
     receiving  fund would be detrimental to the Fund from which the exchange is
     made or to the receiving fund.
     o    The  interests of the Fund's  shareholders  and the Fund's  ability to
          manage its investments  may be adversely  affected when its shares are
          repeatedly  exchanged  over the short term.  When large dollar amounts
          are involved,  the Fund's  implementation of its investment strategies
          may be  negatively  affected or the Fund might have to raise or retain
          more cash than the portfolio  manager would normally  retain,  to meet
          unanticipated  redemptions.  Frequent exchange activity also may force
          the Fund to sell  portfolio  securities  at  disadvantageous  times to
          raise the cash needed to meet those exchange  requests.  These factors
          might  hurt the Fund's  performance.  When the  Transfer  Agent in its
          discretion believes frequent trading activity by any person,  group or
          account would have a disruptive effect on the Fund's ability to manage
          its  investments,  the Fund and the Transfer Agent may reject purchase
          orders  and/or  exchanges  into the  Fund.  The  history  of  exchange
          activity  in all  accounts  known  by the  Transfer  Agent to be under
          common  ownership or control within the Oppenheimer  funds complex may
          be  considered  by the Transfer  Agent,  with respect to the review of
          exchanges  involving  this  Fund  as  part  of  the  Transfer  Agent's
          procedures  to  detect  and deter  excessive  exchange  activity.  The
          Transfer  Agent may permit  exchanges that it believes in the exercise
          of its judgment are not  disruptive.  The Transfer  Agent might not be
          able to detect frequent exchange activity  conducted by the underlying
          owners of shares held in omnibus accounts,  and therefore might not be
          able to  effectively  prevent  frequent  exchange  activity  in  those
          accounts. There is no guarantee that the Transfer Agent's controls and
          procedures  will be  successful  to identify  investors  who engage in
          excessive trading activity or to curtail that activity.

As stated above, the Fund permits dealers or financial  intermediaries to submit
exchange  requests on behalf of their customers (unless the customer has revoked
that  authority).  The Manager,  the Distributor  and/or the Transfer Agent have
agreements  with a limited  number of  broker-dealers  and  investment  advisers
permitting  them to submit  exchange  orders in bulk on behalf of their clients,
provided that those  broker-dealers  or advisers agree to  restrictions on their
exchange  activity (which are more stringent than the restrictions that apply to
other  shareholders).  Those  restrictions  include  limitations  on  the  funds
available for exchanges,  the requirement to give advance notice of exchanges to
the  Transfer  Agent,  and  limits on the  amount of client  assets  that may be
invested in a particular  fund.  The Fund and its Transfer Agent may restrict or
refuse bulk exchange requests submitted by a financial intermediary on behalf of
a large number of accounts  (including  pursuant to the  arrangements  described
above) if, in the Transfer Agent's judgment  exercised in its discretion,  those
exchanges would be disruptive to either fund in the exchange transaction.

     o    The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any
          time.  The Fund may refuse any  exchange  order and is  currently  not
          obligated to provide notice before rejecting an exchange order.
     o    If the  Transfer  Agent  cannot  exchange  all the shares you  request
          because of a  restriction  cited above,  only the shares  eligible for
          exchange will be exchanged.

Shareholder Account Rules and Policies

More  information  about the Fund's policies and procedures for buying,  selling
and exchanging shares is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.

A    $12 annual  "Minimum  Balance  Fee" is assessed on each Fund account with a
     value of less  than  $500.  The fee is  automatically  deducted  from  each
     applicable  Fund account  annually on or about the second to last  "regular
     business  day" of September.  See the  Statement of Additional  Information
     (shareholders may visit the OppenheimerFunds  website) to learn how you can
     avoid  this  fee and for  circumstances  under  which  this fee will not be
     assessed.
The  offering  of  shares  may be  suspended  during  any  period  in which  the
     determination  of net asset value is  suspended,  and the  offering  may be
     suspended by the Board of Trustees at any time the Board  believes it is in
     the Fund's best interest to do so.
Telephone transaction privileges for purchases,  redemptions or exchanges may be
     modified,  suspended or terminated  by the Fund at any time.  The Fund will
     provide you notice  whenever it is required to do so by applicable  law. If
     an account  has more than one owner,  the Fund and the  Transfer  Agent may
     rely on the  instructions of any one owner.  Telephone  privileges apply to
     each owner of the account and the dealer  representative  of record for the
     account unless the Transfer Agent receives  cancellation  instructions from
     an owner of the account.
The  Transfer  Agent will record any telephone  calls to verify data  concerning
     transactions  and has adopted other  procedures  to confirm that  telephone
     instructions   are   genuine,   by   requiring   callers  to  provide   tax
     identification  numbers and other  account  data or by using  PINs,  and by
     confirming such  transactions  in writing.  The Transfer Agent and the Fund
     will  not be  liable  for  losses  or  expenses  arising  out of  telephone
     instructions reasonably believed to be genuine.
Redemption or transfer  requests  will not be honored  until the Transfer  Agent
     receives all required  documents  in proper  form.  From time to time,  the
     Transfer Agent in its discretion may waive certain of the  requirements for
     redemptions stated in this Prospectus.
Dealers that perform account  transactions for their clients by participating in
     NETWORKING  through  the  National  Securities  Clearing   Corporation  are
     responsible  for  obtaining  their  clients'  permission  to perform  those
     transactions,  and are responsible to their clients who are shareholders of
     the Fund if the dealer performs any transaction erroneously or improperly.
The  redemption  price for shares will vary from day to day because the value of
     the securities in the Fund's portfolio  fluctuates.  The redemption  price,
     which is the net asset value per share, will normally differ for each class
     of shares.  The  redemption  value of your  shares may be more or less than
     their original cost.
Payment for  redeemed  shares  ordinarily  is made in cash.  It is  forwarded by
     check,  or through  AccountLink or by Federal Funds wire (as elected by the
     shareholder) within seven days after the Transfer Agent receives redemption
     instructions  in  proper  form.   However,   under  unusual   circumstances
     determined  by the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission,  payment  may be
     delayed  or   suspended.   For  accounts   registered  in  the  name  of  a
     broker-dealer,  payment will  normally be forwarded  within three  business
     days after redemption.
The  Transfer  Agent may delay  processing  any type of  redemption  payment  as
     described  under "How to Sell Shares" for recently  purchased  shares,  but
     only until the purchase  payment has cleared.  That delay may be as much as
     10 days from the date the shares were purchased.  That delay may be avoided
     if you purchase shares by Federal Funds wire or certified check, or arrange
     with your bank to provide  telephone  or written  assurance to the Transfer
     Agent that your purchase payment has cleared.
Involuntary redemptions of small accounts may be made by the Fund if the account
     value has fallen below $500 for reasons other than the fact that the market
     value of shares has dropped. In some cases,  involuntary redemptions may be
     made to repay the  Distributor  for losses from the  cancellation  of share
     purchase orders.
Shares may be "redeemed in kind" under unusual  circumstances (such as a lack of
     liquidity in the Fund's portfolio to meet redemptions). This means that the
     redemption  proceeds  will be paid with liquid  securities  from the Fund's
     portfolio.  If  the  Fund  redeems  your  shares  in  kind,  you  may  bear
     transaction  costs  and will  bear  market  risks  until  such time as such
     securities are converted into cash.
Federal regulations may require the Fund to obtain your name, your date of birth
     (for a natural person),  your residential street address or principal place
     of business and your Social Security Number, Employer Identification Number
     or  other  government  issued  identification  when  you  open an  account.
     Additional  information may be required in certain circumstances or to open
     corporate accounts. The Fund or the Transfer Agent may use this information
     to attempt to verify your  identity.  The Fund may not be able to establish
     an account if the necessary information is not received.  The Fund may also
     place  limits  on  account  transactions  while  it is in  the  process  of
     attempting to verify your identity.  Additionally, if the Fund is unable to
     verify your  identity  after your account is  established,  the Fund may be
     required to redeem your shares and close your account.
"Backup  withholding"  of  federal  income tax may be  applied  against  taxable
     dividends,  distributions and redemption proceeds (including  exchanges) if
     you fail to furnish the Fund your  correct,  certified  Social  Security or
     Employer  Identification  Number when you sign your application,  or if you
     under-report your income to the Internal Revenue Service.
To   avoid sending  duplicate  copies of materials to households,  the Fund will
     mail only one copy of each  prospectus,  annual and semi-annual  report and
     annual notice of the Fund's privacy policy to shareholders  having the same
     last name and address on the Fund's  records.  The  consolidation  of these
     mailings,  called  householding,  benefits the Fund through reduced mailing
     expense.

If you want to  receive  multiple  copies of these  materials,  you may call the
Transfer  Agent at  1.800.225.5677.  You may also notify the  Transfer  Agent in
writing. Individual copies of prospectuses,  reports and privacy notices will be
sent to you  commencing  within 30 days after the Transfer  Agent  receives your
request to stop householding.

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

Dividends.  The Fund intends to declare  dividends  separately for each class of
shares  from  net  investment  income  on an  annual  basis  and to pay  them to
shareholders in December on a date selected by the Board of Trustees.  Dividends
and  distributions  paid to Class A and Class Y shares will  generally be higher
than  dividends  for Class B, Class C and Class N shares,  which  normally  have
higher expenses than Class A and Class Y shares.  The Fund has no fixed dividend
rate and cannot guarantee that it will pay any dividends or distributions.

Capital  Gains.  The Fund may  realize  capital  gains on the sale of  portfolio
securities.  If it does, it may make  distributions out of any net short-term or
long-term capital gains in December of each year. The Fund may make supplemental
distributions  of dividends  and capital  gains  following the end of its fiscal
year.  There  can be no  assurance  that the Fund  will  pay any  capital  gains
distributions in a particular year.

WHAT  CHOICES  DO YOU  HAVE FOR  RECEIVING  DISTRIBUTIONS?  When  you open  your
account,  specify on your application how you want to receive your dividends and
distributions. You have four options:
Reinvest All  Distributions in the Fund. You can elect to reinvest all dividends
     and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the Fund.
Reinvest   Dividends  or  Capital   Gains.   You  can  elect  to  reinvest  some
     distributions  (dividends,  short-term  capital gains or long-term  capital
     gains  distributions)  in the  Fund  while  receiving  the  other  types of
     distributions  by check or having  them sent to your bank  account  through
     AccountLink.
Receive All  Distributions  in Cash.  You can  elect to  receive a check for all
     dividends  and capital gains  distributions  or have them sent to your bank
     through AccountLink.
Reinvest  Your  Distributions  in  Another  OppenheimerFunds  Account.  You  can
     reinvest  all  distributions  in  the  same  class  of  shares  of  another
     OppenheimerFunds account you have established.

TAXES.  If your shares are not held in a tax-deferred  retirement  account,  you
should be aware of the  following  tax  implications  of  investing in the Fund.
Distributions  are subject to federal  income tax and may be subject to state or
local taxes.  Dividends  paid from  short-term  capital gains and net investment
income are taxable as ordinary  income.  Long-term  capital gains are taxable as
long-term capital gains when distributed to shareholders. It does not matter how
long you have held your  shares.  Whether you  reinvest  your  distributions  in
additional shares or take them in cash, the tax treatment is the same.

     Every  year the Fund  will  send you and the IRS a  statement  showing  the
amount of any taxable  distribution  you  received  in the  previous  year.  Any
long-term capital gains will be separately identified in the tax information the
Fund sends you after the end of the calendar year.

     The Fund intends each year to qualify as a "regulated  investment  company"
under the Internal  Revenue  Code,  but  reserves  the right not to qualify.  It
qualified  during its last fiscal  year.  The Fund,  as a  regulated  investment
company,  will not be  subject  to Federal  income  taxes on any of its  income,
provided that it satisfies  certain  income,  diversification  and  distribution
requirements.

Avoid"Buying  a  Distribution."  If  you  buy  shares  on  or  just  before  the
     ex-dividend  date,  or just  before  the  Fund  declares  a  capital  gains
     distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and then receive a
     portion of the price back as a taxable dividend or capital gain.
Remember,  There May be Taxes on  Transactions.  Because the Fund's share prices
     fluctuate,  you may have a capital  gain or loss when you sell or  exchange
     your shares. A capital gain or loss is the difference between the price you
     paid for the shares  and the price you  received  when you sold  them.  Any
     capital gain is subject to capital gains tax.
Returns of Capital Can Occur. In certain cases,  distributions  made by the Fund
     may be considered a non-taxable return of capital to shareholders.  If that
     occurs, it will be identified in notices to shareholders.

     This   information  is  only  a  summary  of  certain  federal  income  tax
information  about your  investment.  You should  consult  with your tax advisor
about the effect of an investment in the Fund on your particular tax situation.

Financial Highlights

The Financial  Highlights  Table is presented to help you  understand the Fund's
financial  performance  for the past  five  fiscal  years.  Certain  information
reflects  financial  results for a single Fund share.  The total  returns in the
table  represent  the rate that an  investor  would have  earned (or lost) on an
investment   in  the  Fund   (assuming   reinvestment   of  all   dividends  and
distributions).  This  information  has  been  audited  by KPMG  llp the  Fund's
independent  registered  public  accounting firm,  whose report,  along with the
Fund's  financial  statements,  is  included  in  the  Statement  of  Additional
Information, which is available on request.

ABOUT THE FUND

Additional Information About the Fund's Investment Policies and Risks

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

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

      Because the Fund may purchase securities denominated in foreign
currencies, a change in the value of such foreign currency against the U.S.
dollar will result in a change in the amount of income the Fund has available
for distribution.  Because a portion of the Fund's investment income may be
received in foreign currencies, the Fund will be required to compute its
income in U.S. dollars for distribution to shareholders, and therefore the
Fund will absorb the cost of currency fluctuations.  After the Fund has
distributed income, subsequent foreign currency losses may result in the
Fund's having distributed more income in a particular fiscal period than was
available from investment income, which could result in a return of capital
to shareholders.

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

            |_|? 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, currency devaluation or currency control regulations (for
         example, currency blockage);
o     transaction charges for currency exchange;
o     lack of public information about foreign issuers;
o     lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards
         in foreign countries comparable to those applicable to domestic
         issuers;
o     less volume on foreign exchanges than on U.S. exchanges;
o     greater volatility and less liquidity on foreign markets than in the
         U.S.;
o     less governmental regulation of foreign issuers, 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     foreign withholding taxes on interest dividends;
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 Manager from time to time.

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

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

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

      ? 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 applicable
securities laws, the Fund may have to cause those securities to be
registered. The expenses of registering restricted securities may be
negotiated by the Fund with the issuer at the time the Fund buys the
securities. When the Fund must arrange registration because the Fund wishes
to sell the security, a considerable period may elapse between the time the
decision is made to sell the security and the time the security is registered
so that the Fund could sell it. The Fund would bear the risks of any downward
price fluctuation during that period.

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

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

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

      ? 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 objective. To attempt to protect against declines in the market
value of the Fund's portfolio, to permit the Fund to retain unrealized gains
in the value of portfolio securities which have appreciated, or to facilitate
selling securities for investment reasons, the Fund could:
      ?  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"), (5) commodities (these are referred to as "commodity
futures") and (6) an individual stock ("single stock future").

      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.

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

      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
identify additional liquid assets if the value of the identified assets drops
below 100% of the current value of the future. Because of this identification
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 an investment the Fund does not own (such as an index
or future) permits the Fund to resell the put or to buy the underlying
investment and sell it at the exercise price. The resale price will vary
inversely to the price of the underlying investment. If the market price of
the underlying investment is above the exercise price and, as a result, the
put is not exercised, the put will become worthless on its expiration date.

      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.

      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 identified
on the books) upon conversion or exchange of other foreign currency held in
its portfolio.

      The Fund could write a call on a foreign currency to provide a hedge
against a decline in the U.S. dollar value of a security which the Fund owns
or has the right to acquire and which is denominated in the currency
underlying the option. That decline might be one that occurs due to an
expected adverse change in the exchange rate. This is known as a
"cross-hedging" strategy. In those circumstances, the Fund covers the option
by 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 segregating
assets on the Fund's books 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.  The Commodities
Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") recently eliminated limitations on
futures trading by certain regulated entities including registered investment
companies and consequently registered investment companies may engage in
unlimited futures transactions and options thereon provided that the Fund
claims an exclusion from regulation as a commodity pool operator. The Fund
has claimed such an exclusion from registration as a commodity pool operator
under the Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA"). The Fund may use futures and
options for hedging and non-hedging purposes to the extent consistent with
its investment objective, internal risk management guidelines adopted by the
Fund's investment advisor (as they may be amended from time to time), and as
otherwise set forth in the Fund's prospectus.

      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 interpretations of staff members of the SEC regarding applicable
provisions of the Investment Company Act, when the Fund purchases a future,
it must segregate liquid assets in an amount equal to the purchase price of
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 and Interim Investments. When market or economic
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.

Other 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 principal investment policies are
described in the Prospectus.

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

      ? 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 ongoing basis, it applies
only at the time the Fund makes an investment (except in the case of
borrowing and investments in illiquid securities). The Fund need not sell
securities to meet the percentage limits if the value of the investment
increases in proportion to the size of the Fund.

     |X|  Does   the  Fund   Have   Additional   Restrictions   That  Are  Not
     "Fundamental" Policies?

          The  Fund  has  an  additional  operating  policy  that  is  not
          "fundamental,"  and  which  can  be  changed  by  the  Board  of
          Trustees without shareholder approval:

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

          o The Fund  cannot  invest in physical  commodities  or physical
          commodity   contracts   or  buy   securities   for   speculative
          short-term  purposes.  However, the Fund can buy and sell any of
          the  hedging   instruments   permitted   by  any  of  its  other
          policies.   It  can  also  buy  and   sell   options,   futures,
          securities or other instruments  backed by physical  commodities
          or whose  investment  return is linked to  changes  in the price
          of physical commodities.


      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.

      Classes of Shares. The Trustees are authorized, without shareholder
approval, 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.

      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.

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

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

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

      The Board of Trustees has an Audit Committee, a Regulatory & Oversight
Committee, a Governance Committee and a Proxy Committee.  The Audit Committee
is comprised solely of Independent Trustees.  The members of the Audit
Committee are Joel Motley (Chair), Edward V. Regan and Kenneth Randall. The
Audit Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended August
31, 2004. The Audit Committee provides the Board with recommendations
regarding the selection of the Fund's independent auditor. The Audit
Committee also reviews the scope and results of audits and the audit fees
charged, reviews reports from the Fund's independent auditor concerning the
Fund's internal accounting procedures, and controls and reviews reports of
the Manager's internal auditor, among other duties as set forth in the
Committee's charter.

      The members of the Regulatory & Oversight Committee are Robert G. Galli
(Chair), Joel Motley and Phillip Griffiths. The Regulatory & Oversight
Committee held 6 meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31 2004.
The Regulatory & Oversight Committee evaluates and reports to the Board on
the Fund's contractual arrangements, including the Investment Advisory and
Distribution Agreements, transfer and shareholder service agreements and
custodian agreements as well as the policies and procedures adopted by the
Fund to comply with the Investment Company Act and other applicable law,
among other duties as set forth in the Committee's charter.

      The members of the Governance Committee are Phillip Griffiths (Chair),
Kenneth Randall and Russell S. Reynolds, Jr.  The Governance Committee held 7
meetings during the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31, 2004. The Governance
Committee reviews the Fund's governance guidelines, the adequacy of the
Fund's Codes of Ethics, and develops qualification criteria for Board members
consistent with the Fund's governance guidelines, among other duties set
forth in the Committee's charter.

      The members of the Proxy Committee are Edward V. Regan (Chair), Russell
S. Reynolds Jr. and John V. Murphy.  The Proxy Committee held 1 meeting
during the Fund's fiscal year ended August 31, 2004.  The Proxy Committee
provides the Board with recommendations for proxy voting and monitors proxy
voting by the Fund.

Trustees and Officers of the Fund. Except for Mr. Murphy, each of the
Trustees is an "Independent Trustee" under the Investment Company Act. Mr.
Murphy is an "Interested Trustee," because he is affiliated with the Manager
by virtue of his positions as an officer and director of the Manager, and as
a shareholder of its parent company.

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


Oppenheimer AMT-Free Municipals            Oppenheimer Global Opportunities Fund
                                           Oppenheimer  Gold &  Special  Minerals
Oppenheimer AMT-Free New York Municipals   Fund
Oppenheimer Balanced Fund                  Oppenheimer Growth Fund
Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund      Oppenheimer International Growth Fund
                                           Oppenheimer     International    Small
Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund      Company Fund
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund      Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund        Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income Trust
                                           Oppenheimer    Multi-State   Municipal
Oppenheimer Discovery Fund                 Trust
Oppenheimer Emerging Growth Fund           Oppenheimer Series Fund, Inc.
Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund     Oppenheimer U.S. Government Trust
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund
Oppenheimer Global Fund

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

      Messrs. Murphy, Petersen, Vandehey, Vottiero, Wixted, Zack and Gilston
and Mses. Bloomberg, Ives and Lee respectively hold the same offices with one
or more of the other Board I Funds as with the Fund.  As of October 6, 2004,
the Trustees and officers of the Fund, as a group, owned of record or
beneficially less than 1% of each class of shares of the Fund.  The foregoing
statement does not reflect ownership of shares of the Fund held of record by
an employee benefit plan for employees of the Manager, other than the shares
beneficially owned under the plan by the officers of the Fund listed above.
In addition, each Independent Trustee, and his family members, do not own
securities of either the Manager or Distributor of the Board I Funds or any
person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common
control with the Manager or Distributor.

|X|   Affiliated Transactions and Material Business Relationships. Mr.
Reynolds has reported he has a controlling interest in The Directorship
Group, Inc. ("The Directorship Search Group"), a director recruiting firm
that provided consulting services to Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance
Company (which controls the Manager) for fees of $137,500 for calendar year
ended December 31, 2002. Mr. Reynolds reported that The Directorship Search
Group did not provide consulting services to Massachusetts Mutual Life
Insurance Company during the calendar year ended December 31, 2003, and does
not expect to provide any such services in the calendar year ended December
31, 2004.

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

Vice Chairman of the
Board
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Messrs.  Levy and Lipstein and Ms.  Moynihan  retired as Trustees from Board I
effective  January 1, 2003,  March 31, 2003 and July 31,  2003,  respectively.
For the  fiscal  year  ended  August  31,  2004,  Ms.  Moynihan  received  $63
aggregate  compensation  from the Fund.  For calendar year ended  December 31,
2003,  Messrs  Levy and  Lipstein  and Ms.  Moynihan  each  received  $43,425,
$75,076  and  $88,229,  respectively,  of total  compensation  from all of the
Oppenheimer funds for which they served as Trustee/Director.
1.    "Aggregate   Compensation   From  Fund"   includes   fees  and  deferred
   compensation, if any, for a Trustee.
2.    "Estimated  Annual  Retirement  Benefits to be Paid Upon  Retirement" is
   based on a straight life payment plan election with the  assumption  that a
   Trustee  will  retire  at the age of 75 and is  eligible  (after 7 years of
   service)  to receive  retirement  plan  benefits as  described  below under
   "Retirement Plan for Trustees."
3.    Includes $266 and $337 deferred by Messrs.  Yeutter and Motley under the
   Deferred Compensation Plan described below.
4.    Includes  $36,990  estimated  to be paid to Mr.  Galli for  serving as a
   trustee  or  director  of 10 other  Oppenheimer  funds that are not Board I
   Funds.
5.    Includes  $96,000 paid to Mr. Galli for serving as a trustee or director
   of 10 other Oppenheimer funds that are not Board I Funds.
6.    Includes  $799 paid to Mr.  Griffiths  under the  Deferred  Compensation
   Plan described below.
7.    The amount for Mr. Spiro is based on the assumption  that he will retire
   at age 82 when he becomes  eligible  to receive  retirement  plan  benefits
   (after 7 years of service).

|X|   Retirement Plan for Trustees. The Fund has adopted a retirement plan
that provides for payments to retired Independent 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 Board I Funds for at least seven years in order to
be eligible for retirement plan benefits and must serve for at least 15 years
to be eligible for the maximum benefit. Each Trustee's retirement benefits
will depend on the amount of the Trustee's future compensation and length of
service.

|X|   Deferred Compensation Plan for Trustees. The Board of Trustees has
adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent Trustees that enables
them to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual fees they
are entitled to receive from the Fund. Under the plan, the compensation
deferred by a Trustee is periodically adjusted as though an equivalent amount
had been invested in shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds selected by the
Trustee. The amount paid to the Trustee under the plan is 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 SEC, 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| Major Shareholders. As of October 6, 2004, the only persons who
owned of record or were known by the Fund to own beneficially 5% or more of
any class of the Fund's outstanding shares was:

         George O'Neal & Wayne Freeman Tr, Triangle Family Svcs Inc
         403B, 118 Saint Marys St, Raleigh, NC 27605-1809, which owned
         3,714.019 Class N shares (5.07% of the Class N shares then
         outstanding).

         IBT & Co Cust, Oppenheimerfunds Cap Accum Plan, Attn MML037,
         200 Clarendon St, Fl 16, Boston, MA  02116-5021, which owned
         344,788.534 Class Y shares (29.89% of the Class Y shares then

         MassMutual Life Insurance Co, Attn: N225, Separate Investment
         Acct, 1295 State St, Springfield MA  01111-001, which owned
         808,624.388 Class Y shares (70.10% of the Class Y shares then
         outstanding).

The Manager. The Manager is wholly-owned by Oppenheimer Acquisition Corp., a
holding company controlled by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, a
global, diversified insurance and financial services organization.

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

      The Code of Ethics is an exhibit to the Fund's registration statement
filed with the SEC and can be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public
Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You can obtain information about the hours
of operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at
1.202.942.8090. The Code of Ethics can also be viewed as part of the Fund's
registration statement on the SEC's EDGAR database at the SEC's Internet
website at www.sec.gov. Copies may be obtained, after paying a duplicating
           -----------
fee, by electronic request at the following E-mail address:

Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

|X|   Portfolio Proxy Voting.  The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting
Policies and Procedures under which the Fund votes proxies relating to
securities ("portfolio proxies") held by the Fund. The Fund's primary
consideration in voting portfolio proxies is the financial interests of the
Fund and its shareholders. The Fund has retained an unaffiliated third-party
as its agent to vote portfolio proxies in accordance with the Fund's
Portfolio Proxy Voting Guidelines and to maintain records of such portfolio
proxy voting. The Proxy Voting Guidelines include provisions to address
conflicts of interest that may arise between the Fund and OFI where an OFI
directly-controlled affiliate manages or administers the assets of a pension
plan of a company soliciting the proxy. The Fund's Portfolio Proxy Voting
Guidelines on routine and non-routine proxy proposals are summarized below.

o     The Fund votes with the recommendation of the issuer's management on
          routine matters, including election of directors nominated by
          management and ratification of auditors, unless circumstances
          indicate otherwise.
o     In general, the Fund opposes anti-takeover proposals and supports
          elimination of anti-takeover proposals, absent unusual
          circumstances.
o     The Fund supports shareholder proposals to reduce a super-majority vote
          requirement, and opposes management proposals to add a
          super-majority vote requirement.
o     The Fund opposes proposals to classify the board of directors.
o     The Fund supports proposals to eliminate cumulative voting.
o     The Fund opposes re-pricing of stock options.
o     The Fund generally considers executive compensation questions such as
          stock option plans and bonus plans to be ordinary business
          activity. The Fund analyzes stock option plans, paying particular
          attention to their dilutive effect. While the Fund generally
          supports management proposals, the Fund opposes plans it
          considers to be excessive.

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

|X|   The Investment Advisory Agreement.  The Manager provides investment
advisory and management services to the Fund under an investment advisory
agreement between the Manager and the Fund. The Manager selects securities
for the Fund's portfolio and handles its day-to-day business. The portfolio
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 Department provide
the portfolio managers with counsel and support in managing the Fund's
portfolio
      The agreement requires the Manager, at its expense, to provide the Fund
with adequate office space, facilities and equipment. It also requires the
Manager to provide and supervise the activities of all administrative and
clerical personnel required to provide effective administration for the Fund.
Those responsibilities include the compilation and maintenance of records
with respect to its operations, the preparation and filing of specified
reports, and composition of proxy materials and registration statements for
continuous public sale of shares of the Fund.

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

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
           2003                                    $1,371,543

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

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

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

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

      The Board reviewed the foregoing information in arriving at its
decision to renew the investment advisory agreement. Among other factors, the
Board considered:
o     The nature, cost, and quality of the services provided to the Fund and
         its shareholders;
o     The profitability of the Fund to the Manager;
o     The investment performance of the Fund in comparison to regular market
         indices;
o     Economies of scale that may be available to the Fund from the Manager;
o     Fees paid by other mutual funds for similar services;
o     The value and quality of any other benefits or services received by the
         Fund from its relationship with the Manager; and
o     The direct and indirect benefits the Manager received from its
         relationship with the Fund. These included services provided by the
         Distributor and the Transfer Agent, and brokerage and soft dollar
         arrangements permissible under Section 28(e) of the Securities
         Exchange Act.

      The Board considered that the Manager must be able to pay and retain
high quality personnel at competitive rates to provide services to the Fund.
The Board also considered that maintaining the financial viability of the
Manager is important so that the Manager will be able to continue to provide
quality services to the Fund and its shareholders in adverse times. The Board
also considered the investment performance of other mutual funds advised by
the Manager. The Board is aware that there are alternatives to the use of the
Manager.

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

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

Brokerage Policies of the Fund

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

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

      Subject to those considerations, as a factor in selecting brokers for
the Fund's portfolio transactions, the investment advisory agreement also
permits the Manager to consider sales of shares of the Fund and other
investment companies for which the Manager or an affiliate serves as
investment adviser.  Notwithstanding that authority, and with the concurrence
of the Fund's Board, the Manager has determined not to consider sales of
shares of the Fund and other investment companies for which the Manager or an
affiliate serves as investment adviser as a factor in selecting brokers for
the Fund's portfolio transactions.  However, the Manager may continue to
effect portfolio transactions through brokers who sell shares of the Fund.

Brokerage Practices Followed by the Manager. The Manager allocates brokerage
for the Fund subject to the provisions of the investment advisory agreement
and the procedures and rules described above. Generally, the Manager's
portfolio traders allocate brokerage based upon recommendations from the
Manager's portfolio managers. In certain instances, 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.

      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. When possible, the Manager tries to combine
concurrent orders to purchase or sell the same security by more than one of
the accounts managed by the Manager or its affiliates. The transactions under
those combined orders are averaged as to price and allocated in accordance
with the purchase or sale orders actually placed for each account.

      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 commissions on
fixed-price offerings to obtain research, in the same manner as is permitted
for agency transactions.

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

Distribution and Service Plans

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

      The sales charges and concessions paid to, or retained by, the
Distributor from the sale of shares and the contingent deferred sales charges
retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares during the Fund's
three most recent fiscal years are shown in the tables below.

Distribution and Service Plans. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class
A shares and Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N
shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act. Under those plans the
Fund pays the Distributor for all or a portion of its costs incurred in
connection with the distribution and/or servicing of the shares of the
particular class. Each plan has been approved by a vote of the Board of
Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees1, cast in person
at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on that plan.

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

      Financial intermediaries, brokers and dealers may receive other
payments from the Distributor or the Manager from their own resources in
connection with the promotion and/or sale of shares of the Fund, including
payments to defray expenses incurred in connection with educational seminars
and meetings.  The Manager or Distributor may share expenses incurred by
financial intermediaries in conducting training and educational meetings
about aspects of the Fund for employees of the intermediaries or for hosting
client seminars or meetings at which the Fund is discussed.  In their sole
discretion, the Manager and/or the Distributor may increase or decrease the
amount of payments they make from their own resources for these purposes.

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

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

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

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

      Under the plans for a class, no payment will be made to any recipient
in any 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. The Class A service plan permits reimbursements to
the Distributor at a rate of up to 0.25% of average annual net assets of
Class A shares. The Board has set the rate at that level. The Distributor
does not receive or retain the service fee on Class A shares in accounts for
which the Distributor has been listed as the broker-dealer of record.  .
While the plan permits the Board to authorize payments to the Distributor to
reimburse itself for services under the plan, the Board has not yet done so,
except in the case of the special arrangement described below, regarding
grandfathered retirement accounts. The Distributor makes payments to
recipients quarterly at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average
annual net assets consisting of Class A shares held in the accounts of the
recipients or their customers.

      With respect to purchases of Class A shares subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge by certain retirement plans that purchased such shares
prior to March 1, 2001 ("grandfathered retirement accounts"), the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after the shares are purchased. During the first year the shares
are sold, the Distributor retains the service fee to reimburse itself for the
costs of distributing the shares. After the first year shares are
outstanding, the Distributor makes service fee payments to recipients
quarterly on those shares. The advance payment is based on the net asset
value of shares sold. Shares purchased by exchange do not qualify for the
advance service fee payment. If Class A shares purchased by grandfathered
retirement accounts are redeemed during the first year after their purchase,
the recipient of the service fees on those shares will be obligated to repay
the Distributor a pro rata portion of the advance payment of the service fee
made on those shares.

      For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2004 payments under the Class A
plan totaled $269,192, of which $11,906 was retained by the Distributor under
the arrangement described above, regarding grandfathered retirement accounts,
and included $21,506 paid to an affiliate of the Distributor's parent
company.  Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to
Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years.
The Distributor may not use payments received under the Class A plan to pay
any of its interest expenses, carrying charges, or other financial costs, or
allocation of overhead.

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

      Each plan permits the Distributor to retain both the asset-based sales
charges and the service fees or to pay recipients the service fee on a
quarterly basis, without payment in advance. However, the Distributor
currently intends to pay the service fee to recipients in advance for the
first year after Class B, Class C and Class N shares are purchased. After the
first year Class B, Class C or Class N shares are outstanding, after their
purchase, 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. Class B, Class C or Class N
shares may not be purchased by an investor directly from the Distributor
without the investor designating another broker-dealer of record.  If the
investor no longer has another broker-dealer of record for an existing
account, the Distributor is automatically designated as the broker-dealer of
record, but solely for the purpose of acting as the investor's agent to
purchase the shares.  In those cases, the Distributor retains the asset-based
sales charge paid on Class B, Class C and Class N shares, but does not retain
any service fees as to the assets represented by that account. The
Distributor does not receive or retain the service fee on Class B, Class C or
Class N shares in accounts for which it is listed as the broker-dealer of
record.

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

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

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

      During a calendar year, 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 asset-based sales charges paid to the Distributor by the Fund under the
distribution and service plans.  Those excess expenses are carried over on
the Distributor's books and may be recouped from asset-based sales charge
payments from the Fund in future years.  However, the Distributor has
voluntarily agreed to cap the amount of expenses under the plans that may be
carried over from year to year and recouped that relate to (i) expenses the
Distributor has incurred that represent compensation and expenses of its
sales personnel and (ii) other direct distribution costs it has incurred,
such as sales literature, state registration fees, advertising and
prospectuses used to offer Fund shares.  The cap on the carry-over of those
categories of expenses is set at 0.70% of annual gross sales of shares of the
Fund.  If those categories of expenses exceed the capped amount, the
Distributor bears the excess costs.  If the Class B, Class C or Class N plan
were to be terminated by the Fund, the Fund's Board of Trustees may allow the
Fund to continue payments of the asset-based sales charge to the Distributor
for distributing shares prior to the termination of the plan.

Performance of the Fund

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

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

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

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

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

      |X|   Total Return Information. There are different types of "total
returns" to measure the Fund's performance. Total return is the change in
value of a hypothetical investment in the Fund over a given period, assuming
that all dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested in
additional shares and that the investment is redeemed at the end of the
period. Because of differences in expenses for each class of shares, the
total returns for each class are separately measured. The cumulative total
return measures the change in value over the entire period (for example, 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" in the formula below) (unless the return is
shown without sales charge, as described below). For Class B shares, payment
of the applicable contingent deferred sales charge is applied, depending on
the period for which the return is shown: 5.0% in the first year, 4.0% in the
second year, 3.0% in the third and fourth years, 2.0% in the fifth year, 1.0%
in the sixth year and none thereafter. For Class C shares, the 1.0%
contingent deferred sales charge is deducted for returns for the one-year
period. For Class N shares, the 1.0% contingent deferred sales charge is
deducted for returns for the one-year period, and total returns for the
periods prior to 03/01/01 (the inception date for Class N shares) are based
on the Fund's Class A returns, adjusted to reflect the higher Class N 12b-1
fees. There is no sales charge on Class Y shares.

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

ERV   l/n - 1  Average Annual Total
               Return
  P

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

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

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

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

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

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

o     Total Returns at Net Asset Value. From time to time the Fund may also
quote a cumulative or an average annual total return "at net asset value"
(without deducting sales charges) for Class A, Class B, Class C 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, Inc.
("Lipper"). Lipper is a widely-recognized independent mutual fund monitoring
service. Lipper monitors the performance of regulated investment companies,
including the Fund, and ranks their performance for various periods in
categories based on investment styles. The Lipper performance rankings are
based on total returns that include the reinvestment of capital gain
distributions and income dividends but do not take sales charges or taxes
into consideration. Lipper also publishes "peer-group" indices of the
performance of all mutual funds in a category that it monitors and averages
of the performance of the funds in particular categories.

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

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

      |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.

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.

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

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

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

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

Centennial America Fund, L. P.            Centennial New York Tax Exempt Trust
Centennial California Tax Exempt Trust    Centennial Tax Exempt Trust

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

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

      A Letter 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
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
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. If those terms are amended, as they may be from time to time by
the Fund, the investor agrees to be bound by the amended terms and that those
amendments will apply automatically to existing Letters.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      |X|   Availability of Class N Shares. In addition to the description of
the types of retirement plans which may purchase Class N shares contained in
the prospectus, Class N shares also are offered to the following:
o     to all rollover IRAs (including SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs),
o     to all rollover contributions made to Individual 401(k) plans,
            Profit-Sharing Plans and Money Purchase Pension Plans,
o     to all direct rollovers from OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Pinnacle and
            Ascender retirement plans,
o     to all trustee-to-trustee IRA transfers,
o     to all 90-24 type 403(b) transfers,
o     to Group Retirement Plans (as defined in Appendix B 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, and
o     to certain customers of broker-dealers and financial advisors that are
            identified in a special agreement between the broker-dealer or
            financial advisor and the Distributor for that purpose.

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

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

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

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

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

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

      Listed below are certain cases in which the Fund has elected, in its
discretion, not to assess the Fund Account Fees.  These exceptions are
subject to change:
o     A fund account whose shares were acquired after September 30th of the
            prior year;
o     A fund account that has a balance below $500 due to the automatic
            conversion of shares from Class B to Class A shares. However,
            once all Class B shares held in the account have been converted
            to Class A shares the new account balance may become subject to
            the Minimum Balance Fee;
o     Accounts of shareholders who elect to access their account documents
            electronically via eDoc Direct;
o     A fund account that has only certificated shares and, has a balance
            below $500 and is being escheated;
o     Accounts of shareholders that are held by broker-dealers under the NSCC
            Fund/SERV system;
o     Accounts held under the Oppenheimer Legacy Program and/or holding
            certain Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds;
o     Omnibus accounts holding shares pursuant to the Pinnacle, Ascender,
            Custom Plus, Recordkeeper Pro and Pension Alliance Retirement
            Plan programs; and
o     A fund account that falls below the $500 minimum solely due to market
            fluctuations within the 12-month period preceding the date the
            fee is deducted.

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

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

      Dealers other than Exchange members may conduct trading in certain
securities on days on which the Exchange is closed (including weekends and
holidays) or after 4:00 P.M. on a regular business day. Because the Fund's
net asset values will not be calculated on those days, the Fund's net asset
values per share may be significantly affected on such days when shareholders
may not purchase or redeem shares. Additionally, trading on European and
Asian stock exchanges and over-the-counter markets normally is completed
before the close of the Exchange.
      Changes in the values of securities traded on foreign exchanges or
markets as a result of events that occur after the prices of those securities
are determined, but before the close of the Exchange, will not be reflected
in the Fund's calculation of its net asset values that day unless the Manager
determines that the event is likely to effect a material change in the value
of the security. The Manager, or an internal valuation committee established
by the Manager, as applicable, may establish a valuation, under procedures
established by the Board and subject to the approval, ratification and
confirmation by the Board at its next ensuing meeting

      |X|   Securities Valuation. The Fund's Board of Trustees has
established procedures for the valuation of the Fund's securities. In general
those procedures are as follows:
o     Equity securities traded on a U.S. securities exchange or on Nasdaq(R)
are valued as follows:
(1)   if last sale information is regularly reported, they are valued at the
               last reported sale price on the principal exchange on which
               they are traded or on Nasdaq(R), as applicable, on that day, or
(2)   if last sale information is not available on a valuation date, they are
               valued at the last reported sale price preceding the valuation
               date if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and
               "asked" prices on the valuation date or, if not,  at the
               closing "bid" price on the valuation date.
o     Equity securities traded on a foreign securities exchange generally are
valued in one of the following ways:
(1)   at the last sale price available to the pricing service approved by the
               Board of Trustees, or
(2)   at the last sale price obtained by the Manager from the report of the
               principal exchange on which the security is traded at its last
               trading session on or immediately before the valuation date, or
(3)   at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices obtained from the
               principal exchange on which the security is traded or, on the
               basis of reasonable inquiry, from two market makers in the
               security.
o     Long-term debt securities having a remaining maturity in excess of 60
days are valued based on the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices
determined by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry.
o     The following securities are valued at the mean between the "bid" and
"asked" prices determined by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board
of Trustees or obtained by the Manager from two active market makers in the
security on the basis of reasonable inquiry:
(1)   debt instruments that have a maturity of more than 397 days when
               issued,
(2)   debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or less when issued
               and have a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, and
(3)   non-money market debt instruments that had a maturity of 397 days or
               less when issued and which have a remaining maturity of 60
               days or less.
o     The following securities are valued at cost, adjusted for amortization
of premiums and accretion of discounts:
(1)   money market debt securities held by a non-money market fund that had a
               maturity of less than 397 days when issued that have a
               remaining maturity of 60 days or less, and
(2)   debt instruments held by a money market fund that have a remaining
               maturity of 397 days or less.
o     Securities (including restricted securities) not having
readily-available market quotations are valued at fair value determined under
the Board's procedures. If the Manager is unable to locate two market makers
willing to give quotes, a security may be priced at the mean between the
"bid" and "asked" prices provided by a single active market maker (which in
certain cases may be the "bid" price if no "asked" price is available).

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

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

      Puts, calls, and futures are valued at the last sale price on the
principal exchange on which they are traded or on Nasdaq(R), 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(R)on
the valuation date. If not, the value shall be the closing bid price on the
principal exchange or on Nasdaq(R)on the valuation date. If the put, call or
future is not traded on an exchange or on Nasdaq(R), it shall be valued by the
mean between "bid" and "asked" prices obtained by the Manager from two active
market makers. In certain cases that may be at the "bid" price if no "asked"
price is available.

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

How to Sell Shares

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

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

Reinvestment Privilege. Within six months of a redemption, a shareholder may
reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of:
o     Class A shares purchased subject to an initial sales charge or Class A
         shares on which a contingent deferred sales charge was paid, or
o     Class B shares that were subject to the Class B contingent deferred
         sales charge when redeemed.

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

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

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

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

Involuntary Redemptions. The Fund's Board of Trustees has the right to cause
the involuntary redemption of the shares held in any account if the aggregate
net asset value of those shares is less than $200 or such lesser amount as
the Board may fix. The Board will not cause the involuntary redemption of
shares in an account if the aggregate net asset value of such shares has
fallen below the stated minimum solely as a result of market fluctuations. If
the Board exercises this right, it may also fix the requirements for any
notice to be given to the shareholders in question (not less than 30 days).
The Board may alternatively set requirements for the shareholder to increase
the investment, or set other terms and conditions so that the shares would
not be involuntarily redeemed.

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

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

Distributions From Retirement Plans. Requests for distributions from
OppenheimerFunds-sponsored IRAs, SEP-IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, 403(b)(7) custodial
plans, 401(k) plans or pension or profit-sharing plans should be addressed to
"Trustee, OppenheimerFunds Retirement Plans," c/o the Transfer Agent at its
address listed in "How To Sell Shares" in the Prospectus or on the back cover
of this Statement of Additional Information. The request must:
(1)   state the reason for the distribution;
(2)   state the owner's awareness of tax penalties if the distribution is
         premature; and
(3)   conform to the requirements of the plan and the Fund's other redemption
         requirements.

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

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

Special Arrangements for Repurchase of Shares from Dealers and Brokers. The
Distributor is the Fund's agent to repurchase its shares from authorized
dealers or brokers on behalf of their customers. Shareholders should contact
their broker or dealer to arrange this type of redemption. The repurchase
price per share will be the net asset value next computed after the
Distributor receives an order placed by the dealer or broker. However, if the
Distributor receives a repurchase order from a dealer or broker after the
close of the Exchange on a regular business day, it will be processed at that
day's net asset value if the order was received by the dealer or broker from
its customers prior to the time the Exchange closes. Normally, the Exchange
closes at 4:00 P.M., but may do so earlier on some days. Additionally, the
order must have been transmitted to and received by the Distributor prior to
its close of business that day (normally 5:00 P.M.).

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

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

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

      The Fund cannot guarantee receipt of a payment on the date requested.
The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering these
plans at any time without prior notice. Because of the sales charge assessed
on Class A share purchases, shareholders should not make regular additional
Class A share purchases while participating in an Automatic Withdrawal Plan.
Class B, Class C and Class N shareholders should not establish automatic
withdrawal plans, because of the potential imposition of the contingent
deferred sales charge on such withdrawals (except where the Class B, Class C
or Class N contingent deferred sales charge is waived as described in
Appendix 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 $50.
Instructions should be provided on the OppenheimerFunds Application or
signature-guaranteed instructions. Exchanges made under these plans are
subject to the restrictions that apply to exchanges as set forth in "How to
Exchange Shares" in the Prospectus and below in this Statement of Additional
Information.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


How to Exchange Shares

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

o     All of the Oppenheimer funds currently offer Class A, B, C, N and Y
      shares with the following exceptions:

o     Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. only offers Class A and Class Y
      shares.
o     Class Y shares of Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund may not be exchanged for
      shares of any other fund.
o     Class B, Class C and Class N shares of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves are
      generally available only by exchange from the same class of shares of

      plans.
o     Class M shares of Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund may be
      exchanged only for Class A shares of other Oppenheimer funds. They may
      not be acquired by exchange of shares of any class of any other
      Oppenheimer funds except Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market
      Fund or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves acquired by exchange of Class M
      shares.
o     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 funds may be exchanged at net asset value
      for shares of any money market fund offered by the Distributor. Shares
      of any money market fund purchased without a sales charge may be
      exchanged for shares of Oppenheimer funds offered with a sales charge
      upon payment of the sales charge. They may also be used to purchase
      shares of Oppenheimer funds subject to an early withdrawal charge or
      contingent deferred sales charge.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. purchased with the
      redemption proceeds of shares of other mutual funds (other than funds
      managed by the Manager or its subsidiaries) redeemed within the 30 days
      prior to that purchase may subsequently be exchanged for shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds without being subject to an initial sales
      charge or contingent deferred sales charge. To qualify for that
      privilege, the investor or the investor's dealer must notify the
      Distributor of eligibility for this privilege at the time the shares of
      Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. are purchased. If requested, they
      must supply proof of entitlement to this privilege.
o     Shares of the Fund acquired by reinvestment of dividends or
      distributions from any of the other Oppenheimer funds or from any unit
      investment trust for which reinvestment arrangements have been made
      with the Distributor may be exchanged at net asset value for shares of
      any of the Oppenheimer funds.
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer
      funds. However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected
      Main Street Fund until after the expiration of the warranty period
      (8/5/2010).
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund II may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer
      funds. However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected
      Main Street Fund II until after the expiration of the warranty period
      (2/4/2011).
o     Shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected Main Street Fund III may be
      exchanged at net asset value for shares of any of the Oppenheimer
      funds. However, shareholders are not permitted to exchange shares of
      other Oppenheimer funds for shares of Oppenheimer Principal Protected
      Main Street Fund III until after the expiration of the warranty period
      (12/6/2011).
o

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

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

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

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

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

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

o     With respect to Class B shares (other than  Limited-Term Government
Fund, Limited Term Municipal Fund, Limited Term New York Municipal Fund,
Oppenheimer Capital Preservation Fund and Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate
Fund), the Class B contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B
shares acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within six years of the
initial purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

o     With respect to Class B shares of Limited-Term Government Fund, Limited
Term Municipal Fund, Limited Term New York Municipal Fund, Oppenheimer
Capital Preservation Fund and Oppenheimer Senior Floating Rate Fund, the
Class B contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B shares
acquired by exchange if they are redeemed within 5 years of the initial
purchase of the exchanged Class B shares.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

      Investment income that may be received by the Fund from sources within
foreign countries may be subject to foreign taxes withheld at the source. The
United States has entered into tax treaties with many foreign countries which
entitle the Fund to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, taxes on such
income.

      Distributions by the Fund that do not constitute ordinary income
dividends or capital gain distributions will be treated as a return of
capital to the extent of the shareholder's tax basis in their shares. Any
excess will be treated as gain from the sale of those shares, as discussed
below. Shareholders will be advised annually as to the U.S. federal income
tax consequences of distributions made (or deemed made) during the year. If
prior distributions made by the Fund must be re-characterized as a
non-taxable return of capital at the end of the fiscal year as a result of
the effect of the Fund's investment policies, they will be identified as such
in notices sent to shareholders.
      Distributions by the Fund will be treated in the manner described above
regardless of whether the distributions are paid in cash or reinvested in
additional shares of the Fund (or of another fund). Shareholders receiving a
distribution in the form of additional shares will be treated as receiving a
distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares
received, determined as of the reinvestment date.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Additional Information About the Fund

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

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

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

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

OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND:

     We have audited the  accompanying  statement of assets and  liabilities  of
Oppenheimer  Enterprise  Fund,  including  the statement of  investments,  as of
August 31,  2004,  and the related  statement  of  operations  for the year then
ended,  the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended,  and the financial  highlights  for each of the five years in
the period then ended. These financial  statements and financial  highlights are
the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these  financial  statements  and financial  highlights  based on our
audits.

     We  conducted  our audits in  accordance  with the  standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable  assurance about whether the
financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes  examining,  on a test basis,  evidence supporting the amounts
and   disclosures  in  the  financial   statements.   Our  procedures   included
confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2004, by  correspondence  with
the custodian.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting  principles used
and significant estimates made by management,  as well as evaluating the overall
financial  statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund as of August 31, 2004, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years
in the period  then ended,  and the  financial  highlights  for each of the five
years in the period then  ended,  in  conformity  with U.S.  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION  Unaudited
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In early 2005, if applicable,  shareholders  of record will receive  information
regarding  all  dividends  and  distributions  paid to them by the  Fund  during
calendar year 2004. Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund
to report this information to the Internal Revenue Service.

The  foregoing  information  is  presented to assist  shareholders  in reporting
distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of
the complexity of the federal  regulations  which may affect your individual tax
return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations,  we recommend
that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

                                  Appendix B

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

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

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

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

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

Waivers that apply at the time shares are redeemed must be requested by the
shareholder and/or dealer in the redemption request.

I.     Applicability of Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in Certain
                                      Cases
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Purchases of Class A Shares of Oppenheimer Funds That Are Not Subject to
Initial Sales Charge but May Be Subject to the Class A Contingent Deferred
Sales Charge (unless a waiver applies).

      There is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of any
of the Oppenheimer funds in the cases listed below. However, these purchases
may be subject to the Class A contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed
within 18 months (24 months in the case of Oppenheimer Rochester National
Municipals and Rochester Fund Municipals) of the beginning of the calendar
month of their purchase, as described in the Prospectus (unless a waiver
described elsewhere in this Appendix applies to the redemption).
Additionally, on shares purchased under these waivers that are subject to the
Class A contingent deferred sales charge, the Distributor will pay the
applicable concession described in the Prospectus under "Class A Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge."5 This waiver provision applies to:
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares aggregating $1 million or more.
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares by a Retirement Plan that was permitted to
         purchase such shares at net asset value but subject to a contingent
         deferred sales charge prior to March 1, 2001. That included plans
         (other than IRA or 403(b)(7) Custodial Plans) that: 1) bought shares
         costing $500,000 or more, 2) had at the time of purchase 100 or more
         eligible employees or total plan assets of $500,000 or more, or 3)
         certified to the Distributor that it projects to have annual plan
         purchases of $200,000 or more.
|_|   Purchases by an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored Rollover IRA, if the
         purchases are made:
         1) through a broker, dealer, bank or registered investment adviser
            that has made special arrangements with the Distributor for those
            purchases, or
         2) by a direct rollover of a distribution from a qualified
            Retirement Plan if the administrator of that Plan has made
            special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases.
|_|   Purchases of Class A shares by Retirement Plans that have any of the
         following record-keeping arrangements:
         1) The record keeping is performed by Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner &
            Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") on a daily valuation basis for the
            Retirement Plan. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
            record-keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
            must have $3 million or more of its assets invested in (a) mutual
            funds, other than those advised or managed by Merrill Lynch
            Investment Management, L.P. ("MLIM"), that are made available
            under a Service Agreement between Merrill Lynch and the mutual
            fund's principal underwriter or distributor, and  (b)  funds
            advised or managed by MLIM (the funds described in (a) and (b)
            are referred to as "Applicable Investments").
         2) The record keeping for the Retirement Plan is performed on a
            daily valuation basis by a record keeper whose services are
            provided under a contract or arrangement between the Retirement
            Plan and Merrill Lynch. On the date the plan sponsor signs the
            record keeping service agreement with Merrill Lynch, the Plan
            must have $3 million or more of its assets (excluding assets
            invested in money market funds) invested in Applicable
            Investments.
         3) The record keeping for a Retirement Plan is handled under a
            service agreement with Merrill Lynch and on the date the plan
            sponsor signs that agreement, the Plan has 500 or more eligible
            employees (as determined by the Merrill Lynch plan conversion
            manager).
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 financial institutions that have
         entered into sales arrangements with such dealers or brokers (and
         which are identified as such to the Distributor) or with the
         Distributor. The purchaser must certify to the Distributor at the
         time of purchase that the purchase is for the purchaser's own
         account (or for the benefit of such employee's spouse or minor
         children).
|_|   Dealers, brokers, banks or registered investment advisors that have
         entered into an agreement with the Distributor providing
         specifically for the use of shares of the Fund in particular
         investment products made available to their clients. Those clients
         may be charged a transaction fee by their dealer, broker, bank or
         advisor for the purchase or sale of Fund shares.
|_|   Investment advisors and financial planners who have entered into an
         agreement for this purpose with the Distributor and who charge an
         advisory, consulting or other fee for their services and buy shares
         for their own accounts or the accounts of their clients.
|_|   "Rabbi trusts" that buy shares for their own accounts, if the purchases

Oppenheimer Convertible Securities Fund (referred to as the "Fund" in this
section) may sell Class M shares at net asset value without any initial sales
charge to the classes of investors listed below who, prior to March 11, 1996,
owned shares of the Fund's then-existing Class A and were permitted to
purchase those shares at net asset value without sales charge:
|_|   the Manager and its affiliates,
|_|   present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and
         their "immediate families" as defined in the Fund's Statement of
         Additional Information) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates,
         and retirement plans established by them or the prior investment
         advisor of the Fund for their employees,
|_|   registered management investment companies or separate accounts of
         insurance companies that had an agreement with the Fund's prior
         investment advisor or distributor for that purpose,
|_|   dealers or brokers that have a sales agreement with the Distributor, if
         they purchase shares for their own accounts or for retirement plans
         for their employees,
|_|   employees and registered representatives (and their spouses) of dealers
         or brokers described in the preceding section or financial
         institutions that have entered into sales arrangements with those
         dealers or brokers (and whose identity is made known to the
         Distributor) or with the Distributor, but only if the purchaser
         certifies to the Distributor at the time of purchase that the
         purchaser meets these qualifications,
|_|   dealers, brokers, or registered investment advisors that had entered
         into an agreement with the Distributor or the prior distributor of
         the Fund specifically providing for the use of Class M shares of the
         Fund in specific investment products made available to their
         clients, and
|_|   dealers, brokers or registered investment advisors that had entered
         into an agreement with the Distributor or prior distributor of the
         Fund's shares to sell shares to defined contribution employee
         retirement plans for which the dealer, broker, or investment advisor
         provides administrative services.


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