Dear Shareholder,
We have scheduled a shareholder meeting on March 10, 2000 for you to decide
upon an important "Proposal" for the Fund. Your ballot card and a detailed
statement of the "Proposal" are enclosed with this letter.
Your Board of Trustees recommends a vote "for" the "Proposal". Regardless of
the number of shares you own, it is important that your shares be represented
and voted. So we urge you to consider these issues carefully and to make your
vote count.
How do you vote?
No matter how large or small your investment, your vote is important, so
please review the proxy statement carefully. To cast your vote, simply mark,
sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it in the postage-paid
envelope today. Remember, it can be expensive for the Fund--and ultimately for
you as a shareholder--to remail proxies if not enough responses are received to
conduct the meeting.
What is the "Proposal"?
. New Subadvisory Agreement. OpCap Advisors currently acts as subadviser to
the Fund pursuant to a subadvisory agreement with OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
Shareholders are being asked to approve a new subadvisory agreement that
would become effective, assuming shareholder approval, upon the proposed
change of control of OpCap Advisors and its affiliated companies.
Please read the enclosed proxy statement for complete details on this
"Proposal". Of course if you have any questions, please contact your financial
advisor or call us at 1-800-525-7048.
As always, we appreciate your confidence in OppenheimerFunds and thank you
for allowing us to manage a portion of your investment assets.
Sincerely,
/s/ Bridget A. Macaskill
