The numbers in the chart above are reflective of the Fund's
expenses in its fiscal period January 1, 1996 to July 31, 1996
(the Fund's new fiscal year end) had the voluntary managment
fee waiver been in effect for the period. Effective January
1, 1997, the Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion
of the Fund's management fees. Therefore, the "Management
Fees" and the "Total Fund Operating Expenses" shown in the
chart above have been restated to reflect the voluntary waiver
of a portion of the Fund's management fees had the waiver been
in effect for the Fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 1996. Had
the waiver not been in effect, the Fund's "Management Fees"
would have been 0.60% for the Fund's Class A, Class B and
Class C shares and the "Total Fund Operating Expenses" would
have been 1.03%, 1.79% and 1.87%, respectively for Class A,
Class B and Class C shares. These amounts are shown as a
percentage of the average net assets of each class of the
Fund's shares for that fiscal period.
The "12b-1 Plan Fees" for Class A shares are Service Plan
fees. For Class B and Class C shares, the "12b-1 Plan Fees"
are Service Plan fees and asset-based sales charges. The
service fee for Class A shares is 0.15% and for Class B and
Class C shares is 0.25% (currently set at 0.15%) of average
annual net assets of the class, and the asset-based sales
charge for Class B and Class C shares is 0.75%. These plans
are described in greater detail in "How to Buy Shares," below.
4. The second sentence in "Class A Shares" under "Classes of
Shares" on page 24 is replaced by the following:
If you purchase Class A shares as part of an investment of at
least $1 million in shares of one or more Oppenheimer funds,
you will not pay an initial sales charge, but if you sell any
of those shares within 12 months of buying them (18 months if
the shares were purchased prior to May 1, 1997), you may pay
a contingent deferred sales charge.
5. The following sentence is added to th end of the paragraph
"How Does it Affect Payments To My Broker?" under "Which Class of

Shares - Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" on page 28 is

month of their purchase, a contingent deferred sales
charge (called the "Class A contingent deferred sales
charge") may be deducted from the redemption proceeds.

deducted from the redemption proceeds of any of those
shares purchased on or after May 1, 1997 that are
redeemed within 12 months of the end
of the calendar month of their purchase.

Charges for Class A Share Purchases - Right of Accumulation" on
page 29 is replaced by the following:
The Distributor will add the value, at current offering price,
of the shares you previously purchased and currently own to
the value of current purchases to determine the sales charge
rate that applies.
8. Under the caption "Waivers of Class A Sales Charges - Waivers
of Initial and Contingent Deferred Sales Charges for Certain
Purchases," a new subparagraph is inserted under the second
subparagraph at the top of page 30 as follows:
(1) investment advisors and financial planners who
charge an advisory, consulting or other fee for their services
and buy shares for their own accounts or the accounts of their
clients, (2) "rabbi trusts" that buy shares for their own
accounts, in each case if those purchases are made through a
broker or agent or other financial intermediary that has made
special arrangements with the Distributor for those purchases;
and (3) clients of such investment advisors or financial
planners who buy shares for their own accounts may also
purchase shares without sales charge but only if their
accounts are linked to a master account of their investment
advisor or financial planner on the books and records of the
broker, agent or financial intermediary with which the
Distributor has made such special arrangements (each of these
investors may be charged a fee by the broker, agent or
financial intermediary for purchasing shares);
