At a meeting held July 10, 1995, the Fund's shareholders of record
on April 21, 1995 approved the proposals set forth in the Fund's
proxy statement dated May 25, 1995. The proposals were also
briefly described in the April 19, 1995 supplement to the Fund's
prospectus.
These changes will be effective August 29, 1995, and will be
included in the Fund's updated prospectus and statement of
additional information dated August 29, 1995. These changes
include certain revisions to the Fund's investment policies, as
follows. Effective August 29, 1995, the Fund will, among other
things, be permitted to: (i) invest up to 35% of its total assets
in uninsured investments, and (ii) invest in options and futures
for hedging purposes. In addition, the Fund's name will change to

Fund's proxy statement dated May 25, 1995 for further details.
5. In "How to Buy Shares," the section entitled "Which Class of Shares
Should You Choose?" on page 15 is changed by adding a new final sentence
to the second paragraph of that section as follows:
The discussion below of the factors to consider in purchasing a
particular class of shares assumes that you will purchase only one
class of shares and not a combination of shares of different
classes.
6. In "Reduced Sales Charges for Class A Purchases" on page 18, the first
sentence of the section "Right of Accumulation" is changed to read as
follows:
To qualify for the lower sales charge rates that apply to larger
purchases of Class A shares, you and your spouse can add together
Class A and Class B shares you purchase for your individual
accounts, or jointly, or for trust or custodial accounts on behalf
of your children who are minors.
The first two sentences of the second paragraph of that section are
revised to read as follows:
Additionally, you can add together current purchases of Class
A and Class B shares of the Fund and other OppenheimerFunds to
reduce the sales charge rate that applies to current purchases of
Class A shares. You can also count Class A and Class B shares of
OppenheimerFunds you previously purchased subject to an initial or
contingent deferred sales charge to reduce the sales charge rate
for current purchases of Class A shares, provided that you still
hold that investment in one of the OppenheimerFunds.
7. The first sentence of the section entitled "Letter of Intent" on page
18 is revised to read as follows:
Under a Letter of Intent, if you purchase Class A shares or Class
A shares and Class B shares of the Fund and other OppenheimerFunds
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.
8. In the section entitled "Waivers of Class A Sales Charges" on page 18
the following changes are made:
The first sentence of the first paragraph is replaced by a new
introductory paragraph set forth below and the list of circumstances
describing the sales charge waivers follows a new initial sentence:
-- Waivers of Class A Sales Charges. The Class A sales charges are
not imposed in the circumstances described below. There is an
explanation of this policy in "Reduced Sales Charges" in the
Statement of Additional Information.
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:
The second paragraph is replaced by the following:
Waivers of Initial and Contingent Deferred Sales Charges in
Certain Transactions. Class A shares issued or purchased in the
following transactions are not subject to Class A sales charges:
- shares issued in plans of reorganization, such as mergers,
asset acquisitions and exchange offers, to which the Fund is a
party
- shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends or other
distributions reinvested from the Fund or other OppenheimerFunds
(other than Oppenheimer Cash Reserves) or unit investment trusts
for which reinvestment arrangements have been made with the
Distributor
- shares purchased and paid for with the proceeds of shares
redeemed in the prior 12 months from a mutual fund (other than a
fund managed by the Manager or any of its subsidiaries) on which
an initial sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge was
paid (this waiver also applies to shares purchased by exchange of
shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. that were purchased
and paid for in this manner); this waiver must be requested when
the purchase order is placed for your shares of the Fund, and the
Distributor may require evidence of your qualification for this
waiver.
9. In the section entitled "Reinvestment Privilege" on page 22, the first
two sentences are revised to read as follows:
If you redeem some or all of your Class A or B shares of the Fund,
you have up to 6 months to reinvest all or part of the redemption
proceeds in Class A shares of the Fund or other OppenheimerFunds
without paying a sales charge. This privilege applies to Class A
shares that you purchased subject to an initial sales charge and
to Class A or B shares on which you paid a contingent deferred
sales charge when you redeemed them.

OPPENHEIMER INSURED TAX-EXEMPT BOND FUND
Supplement dated July 14, 1995 to the
Statement of Additional Information dated February 1, 1995
The Statement of Additional Information is amended as follows:
1. In the section entitled "Letters of Intent" on page 25, the first
three sentences of the first paragraph in that section are replaced by the
following:
A Letter of Intent (referred to as 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 OppenheimerFunds) during a 13-month period (the "Letter
of Intent period"), which may, at the investor's request, 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 OppenheimerFunds) that applies under
the Right of Accumulation to current purchases of Class A shares.
2. In the section entitled "Terms of Escrow that Apply to Letters of
Intent" on page 26, item 5 of that section is replaced by the following:
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 acquired subject to a contingent deferred sales charge,
and (c) Class A or B shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends
and distributions or acquired in exchange for either (i) Class A
shares of one of the other OppenheimerFunds that were acquired
subject to a Class A initial or contingent deferred sales charge
or (ii) Class B shares of one of the other OppenheimerFunds that
were acquired subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.
3. In the section entitled "Special Arrangements for Repurchase of Shares
from Dealers and Brokers" on page 28, the last sentence of that section
is revised to read as follows:
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 the
required redemption documents in proper form, with the
signature(s) of the registered owners guaranteed on the redemption
document as described in the Prospectus.
4. In the section entitled "How To Exchange Shares" on page 30, the
second full paragraph is changed by adding new third and fourth sentences
as follows:
However, 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 12 months prior to that purchase may
subsequently be exchanged for shares of other OppenheimerFunds
without being subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales
charge, whichever is applicable. 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, and, if
requested, must supply proof of entitlement to this privilege.

on April 21, 1995 approved the proposals set forth in the Fund's
proxy statement dated May 25, 1995. The proposals were also

reduce the sales charge rate for current purchases of Class A
shares, provided that you still hold that investment in one of the
OppenheimerFunds.
7. The first sentence of the section entitled "Letter of Intent" on page
18 is revised to read as follows:
Under a Letter of Intent, if you purchase Class A shares of the
Fund and Class A and Class B shares of other OppenheimerFunds
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. This can include purchases made up
to 90 days before the date of the Letter.

the following changes are made:

shares of one of the other OppenheimerFunds that were acquired
subject to a Class A initial or contingent deferred sales charge
or (ii) Class B shares of one of the other OppenheimerFunds that
were acquired subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.

from Dealers and Brokers" on page 34, the last sentence of that section
is revised to read as follows:
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 the
required redemption documents in proper form, with the
signature(s) of the registered owners guaranteed on the redemption
document as described in the Prospectus.
4. In the section entitled "How To Exchange Shares" on page 36, the
second full paragraph is changed by adding new third and fourth sentences
as follows:
However, 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 12 months prior to that purchase may
subsequently be exchanged for shares of other OppenheimerFunds
without being subject to an initial or contingent deferred sales
charge, whichever is applicable. To qualify for that privilege,
the investor or the investor's dealer must notify the Distributor
