REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
Fears of higher inflation and rising yields early in the period gave way to a
more positive outlook and a bond market rally by the end of the reporting
period.
The Treasury and municipal markets, which generally move in tandem, decoupled
during the second half of the year.

President

Intermediate
Municipal Fund
Dear Shareholder,
Over the past several decades, our investment teams have learned the importance
of avoiding complacency when it comes to navigating the financial
markets--especially when times are good. Right now, times appear particularly
good. The U.S. economy is in its tenth year of expansion. In the bond market,
U.S. Treasury issues have been performing favorably over the past year. In
addition, despite volatility in the second quarter, the stock market has been
providing attractive returns from a wide spectrum of industry sectors,
capitalization ranges and investment styles.
We have arrived at this juncture after months of monitoring the rapid pace
of global economic growth and its implications for inflation, as well as the
Federal Reserve Board's evolving monetary policy. At this point, economic
indicators suggest a dampening of short-term inflationary pressures. While
recent increases in oil prices are certainly taking their toll, we don't believe
this signals a return to 1970's-style inflation. Accordingly, if the Fed
continues in its diligence, the economy could maintain its healthy rate of
growth.
In the bond market, the achievement of a federal budget surplus has
prompted the Treasury to buy back many of its long-term securities. The
resulting supply shortage boosted these securities' returns, causing an
inversion of the yield curve--an unusual situation in which shorter term
Treasuries yield more than their longer term counterparts. Other bond sectors
are offering many opportunities in the form of attractive valuations.
Perhaps most important is that we have begun to see encouraging signs in
the stock market. Formerly high-flying Internet stocks have generally come down
to earth, and investors have
1 | OPPENHEIMER INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL FUND

PRESIDENT'S LETTER
begun to refocus on companies with strong business fundamentals and justifiable
valuations. Investors have also returned to long-neglected, value-oriented
companies.
What else do these various trends tell us? They tell us that the ability to
discriminate between long-term potential and short-lived fads has become more
critical than ever. Trying to generate good long-term performance requires
tracking the best companies through intensive research, combined with
hard-earned experience.
At OppenheimerFunds, our seasoned portfolio management teams fight
complacency by remaining constantly aware of the risks that face the economy and
financial markets. Virtually anything could affect the overall markets--a surge
in inflation, a decline in productivity, deteriorating corporate earnings, or
even the new Administration's proposals regarding tax reform, healthcare and
Social Security. However, by remaining vigilant in our quest for fundamentally
sound businesses, we believe we can find good investments that can weather
market volatility.
In this environment, we encourage you to consult your financial advisor and
to stay on track with your long-term financial plan. For our part, we will
continue to monitor the opportunities and risks ever present in the financial
markets. Thank you for your confidence in OppenheimerFunds, The Right Way to
Invest.
Sincerely,
/s/James C. Swain /s/Bridget A. Macaskill

AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS

Portfolio
Management Team(1)
Jerry Webman
Merrell Hora
Q How would you characterize the Fund's performance for the fiscal year that
ended September 30, 2000?
The past year was a challenging period for municipal markets and Oppenheimer
Intermediate Municipal Fund. Following nearly three calendar quarters of general
weakness, the municipals market rallied after May 2000. The Fund, however, was
positioned defensively and as a result did not participate in most of the
market's rally. On a tax-free yield basis, the Fund's Class A shares tax-free
yield at net asset value, at 5.04%, was attractive in relation to comparable
U.S. Treasury securities. Indeed, for investors in the top federal income tax
bracket, that works out to a taxable equivalent yield of 8.34%.(2)
Why was the period "challenging" at the onset? Why did it change later on?
Initially, heated economic growth gave rise to concerns that the rate of
inflation might accelerate. Responding to the prospect of higher inflation,
investors demanded higher yields from all fixed income securities. Since bond
yields and prices move in opposite directions, the value of most bonds fell.
To preempt the possibility of faster inflation, the Federal Reserve Board
(the Fed) boosted key short-term interest rates by 0.25% in November 1999 as
well as in February and March 2000. By April, early signs of a slowdown in the
U.S. economy took some of the pressure off bond yields. Finally, in May 2000,
the Fed raised short-term rates by an additional 0.50%, the strongest such
action since 1994.
Investors were reassured by this event, as well as by two other factors.
First, some believed that in order to deal with higher prices for gasoline and
heating fuel, consumers would be forced to reduce their discretionary spending,
which would further cool the economy.
1. Effective August 28, 2000, Jerry Webman and Merrell Hora are managing the
Fund.
2. Dividend yields are calculated based on net asset value (NAV), are annualized
and divided by the offering price as of the Fund's distribution date on 9/7/00.
Dividend yields at NAV do not include sales charge. Falling share prices will
tend to artificially raise yields.

AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
Second, economic expansion in other nations slowed after early 2000,
prompting foreign investors to look to the strongest investment markets--those
in the United States--as an alternative. By June 2000, the market rallied as
investor demand pushed municipal prices up and yields down to levels not seen
since 1998. The effect was most pronounced for issues with longer maturities
(e.g., 20 to 30 years). However, the Fund was affected somewhat, as there were
only limited opportunities available for increasing the Fund's yield.
What other factors played a significant role?
Beginning in February, the U.S. Treasury used surplus funds in the federal
government's budget to buy back long-term government bonds. As the supply of
these relatively safe investments dwindled, their prices rose. Normally, prices
and yields on municipal bonds follow the direction of Treasuries, but that was
not the case between February and April 2000; Treasury prices rose sharply while
prices for municipal securities remained level or declined.
This decoupling of the Treasury and municipal markets was important to the
Fund's results because, for some time now, we have pursued a strategy of hedging
the portfolio with Treasury futures. We have invested in lower quality and/or
longer term municipal bonds for the relatively higher yields they provided. To
offset the greater risk associated with these securities, we have added higher
quality Treasury-related issues (futures) that had the potential to generate
income for the Fund if prices of Treasury securities fell. As long as interest
rates continued to rise and bond prices to decline (the general pattern after
mid-1998), this strategy worked well.
Unfortunately, when Treasury prices rose and yields dropped as a result of
the buyback program, the Fund's Treasury futures hampered performance. Also, as
municipals lagged behind Treasuries, our focus on higher yielding securities and
those with longer maturities hurt results.
[callout]
"We believe healthcare now offers some genuine opportunities, so we have
invested in a small number of higher yielding hospital bonds that we believe
offer particular promise."
4 | OPPENHEIMER INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL FUND
<PAGE>
How did you respond to this?
We limited our use of Treasury futures and shifted our emphasis to municipal
securities with shorter maturities. The latter performed well in the
municipal-market rally that occurred after May, though not as well as longer
term issues.
While we have been generally more cautious in recent months, we have
selectively added to the Fund's high yield holdings in one area: healthcare. It
is fair to say that this sector has been problematic for several years. Changes
in Medicaid and Medicare reimbursements sent a shock through the healthcare
system and hurt the profitability of many hospitals and HMOs. In our view,
however, the entire sector has been so beaten down that it now offers some
genuine opportunities, so we have invested in a small number of higher yielding
hospital bonds that we believe are particularly promising.
What do you anticipate for the economy, municipal markets and the Fund in the
coming months?
We look for the economy to decelerate gradually to a more manageable level of
growth, which should ease the concerns about inflation and give the Fed little
reason to increase short-term interest rates any time soon. If we are correct,
then municipal bond yields may fall slightly and prices for high yield bonds may
improve somewhat (relative to higher quality issues). As for the Fund, it is now
more conservatively positioned than in the recent past but should continue to
provide attractive rates of tax-exempt current income. That is what makes
Oppenheimer Intermediate Municipal Fund part of The Right Way to Invest.

FUND PERFORMANCE
How has the Fund performed? Below is a discussion by OppenheimerFunds, Inc. of
the Fund's performance during its fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, followed
by a graphical comparison of the Fund's performance to an appropriate
broad-based market index.
Management's discussion of performance. During the fiscal year that ended
September 30, 2000, Oppenheimer Intermediate Municipal Fund underperformed the
municipal market and its peer group. A weak bond market throughout much of the
period can be attributed to signs of strong economic growth that historically
have led to higher rates of inflation. Following a series of interest rate hikes
by the Federal Reserve, signals of a less robust economy and thus, less
inflationary pressure, a bond market rally ensued. Adding to the strength of the
rally was an increase in demand from foreign investors seeking the relative
safety of U.S. securities as economic expansion overseas decelerated. The Fund's
relative underperformance can be attributed to a relatively long average
maturity in its portfolio and relatively high allocation to high yield bonds
when interest rates and yields were rising (and prices falling) late in 1999 and
early in 2000, and to the use of a Treasury-related hedging strategy that proved
less profitable during the past year than in prior periods. In the final fiscal
quarter, the Fund was positioned more conservatively (i.e., shorter average
maturity and less hedging) and so did not participate as fully as it might have
in the municipal market rally that occurred in May.
Comparing the Fund's performance to the market. The graphs that follow show the
performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in each class of shares of the
Fund held until September 30, 2000. In the case of Class A shares, performance
is measured over a ten-year period. In the case of Class B shares, performance
is measured from inception of the Class on September 11, 1995. In the case of
Class C shares, performance is measured from inception of the Class on December
1, 1993. The Fund's performance reflects the deduction of the 3.50% maximum
initial sales charge on Class A shares, and the 4% (1-year) and 1% (since
inception) applicable contingent deferred sales charge for Class B, and the 1%
(1-year) contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares. The graphs assume
that all dividends and capital gains distributions were reinvested in additional
shares.
The Fund's performance is compared to the performance of that of the Lehman
Brothers Municipal Bond Index, an unmanaged index of a broad range of investment
grade municipal bonds that is widely regarded as a measure of the performance of
the general municipal bond market.
Index performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends but does not
consider the effect of capital gains or transaction costs, and none of the data
in the graphs that follow shows the effect of taxes. The Fund's performance
reflects the effects of Fund business and operating expenses. While index
comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark for the Fund's performance, it
must be noted that the Fund's investments are not limited to the securities in
the index.

NOTES
In reviewing performance and rankings, please remember that past performance
does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value of an
investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Because of ongoing
market volatility, the Fund's returns may fluctuate and current returns may be
less than the results shown as of 9/30/00. For quarterly updates on the Fund's
performance, please contact your financial advisor, call us at 1.800.525.7048 or
visit our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com.
Total returns and the ending account values in the graphs include changes in
share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a
hypothetical investment for the periods shown. The Fund's total returns shown do
not show the effects of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes may
reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund or any
gains you may realize if you sell your shares.
Class A shares were first publicly offered on 11/11/86. Unless otherwise noted,
Class A returns include the current maximum initial sales charge of 3.50%. The
Fund's maximum sales charge for Class A shares was lower prior to 2/1/92, so
actual performance may have been higher.
Class B shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 9/11/95. Unless
otherwise noted, Class B returns include the applicable contingent deferred
sales charge of 4% (1-year) and 1% (since inception). Class B shares are subject
to an annual 0.75% asset-based sales charge.
Class C shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 12/1/93. Unless
otherwise noted, Class C returns include the contingent deferred sales charge of
1% for the 1-year period. Class C shares are subject to an annual 0.75%
asset-based sales charge.
An explanation of the calculation of performance is in the Fund's Statement of
Additional Information.

1. Represents the current interest rate for a variable rate bond known as an
"inverse floater" which pays interest at a rate that varies inversely with
short-term interest rates. As interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce less
current income. Their price may be more volatile than the price of a comparable
fixed rate security. Inverse floaters amount to $9,060,015 or 6.75% of the
Fund's net assets as of September 30, 2000.
2. Represents securities sold under Rule 144A, which are exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities have
been determined to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees. These securities amount to $10,971,487 or 8.17% of the Fund's net
assets as of September 30, 2000.
3. Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate
security.
As of September 30, 2000, securities subject to the alternative minimum tax
amount to $44,457,686 or 33.11% of the Fund's net assets.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Intermediate Municipal Fund (the Fund) is a separate series of
Oppenheimer Municipal Fund, an open-end management investment company registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund's investment
objective is to seek a high level of current income exempt from federal income
tax. The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class A shares are
sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end
sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end sales
charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). All
classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and voting
privileges, except that each class has its own expenses directly attributable to
that class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting that
class. Classes A, B and C have separate distribution and/or service plans. Class
B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the date
of purchase. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges or
other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price of
the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's assets
are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale
price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing bid
and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities (including
restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available are valued
primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees, or at their fair value. Fair value is
determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost (which approximates market value).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily to
each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required.
As of September 30, 2000, the Fund had available for federal tax purposes an
unused capital loss carryover as follows:
Expiring
--------------------------------------
2008 $196,064
24 | OPPENHEIMER INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL FUND
<PAGE>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment
income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the
fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its
ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing
of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed
may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or realized gain was
recorded by the Fund.
The Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
year ended September 30, 2000, amounts have been reclassified to reflect an
increase in paid-in capital of $2,931. Accumulated net realized loss on
investments was increased by the same amount. All of which is distributed in
connection with Fund share redemptions which increased paid-in capital and
increased accumulated net realized loss. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected
by the reclassifications.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Expense Offset Arrangements. Expenses paid indirectly represent a reduction of
custodian fees for earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. Investment transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Original
issue discount is accreted and premium is amortized in accordance with federal
income tax requirements. For municipal bonds acquired after April 30, 1993, on
disposition or maturity, taxable ordinary income is recognized to the extent of
the lesser of gain or market discount that would have accrued over the holding
period. Realized gains and losses on investments and unrealized appreciation and
depreciation are determined on an identified cost basis, which is the same basis
used for federal income tax purposes.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee of 0.50% of
the first $100 million of average annual net assets, 0.45% of the next $150
million, 0.425% of the next $250 million, and 0.40% of average annual net assets
in excess of $500 million. The Fund's management fee for the year ended
September 30, 2000, an annualized rate of 0.49%, before any waiver by the
Manager if applicable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Fees. The Manager acts as the accounting agent for the Fund at an
annual fee of $12,000, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably
incurred.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund on an
"at-cost" basis. OFS also acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent
for the other Oppenheimer funds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution and Service Plan Fees. Under its General Distributor's Agreement
with the Manager, the Distributor acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in
the continuous public offering of the different classes of shares of the Fund.
The compensation paid to (or retained by) the Distributor from the sale of
shares or on the redemption of shares is shown in the table below for the period
indicated.

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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STAEMENTS Continued
================================================================================
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates Continued
Class A Service Plan Fees. Under the Class A service plan, the Distributor
currently uses the fees it receives from the Fund to pay brokers, dealers and
other financial institutions. The Class A service plan permits reimbursements to
the Distributor at a rate of up to 0.25% of average annual net assets of Class A
shares purchased. The Distributor makes payments to plan recipients quarterly at
an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual net assets consisting
of Class A shares of the Fund. For the year ended September 30, 2000, payments
under the Class A plan totaled $257,754 prior to Manager waiver if applicable,
all of which were paid by the Distributor to recipients, and included $31,947
paid to an affiliate of the Manager. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor
incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in
subsequent years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class B and Class C Distribution and Service Plan Fees. Under each plan, service
fees and distribution fees are computed on the average of the net asset value of
shares in the respective class, determined as of the close of each regular
business day during the period. The Class B and Class C plans provide for the
Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate, whether the Distributor's
distribution expenses are more or less than the amounts paid by the Fund under
the plan during the period for which the fee is paid.
The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B shares. The
Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C shares during the
first year the shares are outstanding. The asset-based sales charges on Class B
and Class C shares allow investors to buy shares without a front-end sales
charge while allowing the Distributor to compensate dealers that sell those
shares.
The Distributor's actual expenses in selling Class B and Class C shares may
be more than the payments it receives from the contingent deferred sales charges
collected on redeemed shares and asset-based sales charges from the Fund under
the plans. If any plan is terminated by the Fund, the Board of Trustees may
allow the Fund to continue payments of the asset-based sales charge to the
Distributor for distributing shares before the plan was terminated. The plans
allow for the carry-forward of distribution expenses, to be recovered from
asset-based sales charges in subsequent fiscal periods.
Distribution fees paid to the Distributor for the year ended September 30, 2000,
were as follows:

================================================================================
5. Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a particular price on a stipulated future
date at a negotiated price. Futures contracts are traded on a commodity
exchange. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts that relate to broadly
based securities indices "financial futures" or debt securities "interest rate
futures" in order to gain exposure to or to seek to protect against changes in
market value of stock and bonds or interest rates. The Fund may also buy or
write put or call options on these futures contracts.
The Fund generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases in
interest rates and decreases in market value of portfolio securities. The Fund
may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to changes in interest
rates as it may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying fixed
income securities.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit
either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal
to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains
and losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is
closed or expires.
Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin
requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of
Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable
and/or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.
Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying securities.
================================================================================
6. Bank Borrowings
The Fund may borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes including,
without limitation, funding of shareholder redemptions provided asset coverage
for borrowings exceeds 300%. The Fund has entered into an agreement which
enables it to participate with other Oppenheimer funds in an unsecured line of
credit with a bank, which permits borrowings up to $400 million, collectively.
Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to
the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.45%. Borrowings are payable 30 days after such
loan is executed. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata
share of the average unutilized amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08%
per annum.
The Fund had no borrowings outstanding during the year ended September 30,
2000.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Intermediate Municipal
Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Intermediate Municipal Fund, including the statement of investments,
as of September 30, 2000, 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 auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. 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 September 30, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. 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 Intermediate Municipal Fund as of September 30, 2000, 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 accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited
================================================================================
In early 2001 shareholders will receive information regarding all dividends and
distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2000. Regulations of
the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund to report this information to the
Internal Revenue Service.
Distributions of $0.1552, $0.1455 and $0.1455 per share were paid to Class
A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively, on December 10, 1999, of
which $0.0594 was designated as a "capital gain distribution" for federal income
tax purposes. Whether received in stock or in cash, the capital gain
distribution should be treated by shareholders as a gain from the sale of
capital assets held for more than one year (long-term capital gains).
None of the dividends paid by the Fund during the year ended September 30,
2000 are eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction. The dividends
were derived from interest on municipal bonds and are not subject to federal
income tax. To the extent a shareholder is subject to any state or local tax
laws, some or all of the dividends received may be taxable.
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.
