Example. The following Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in a class of shares of the Fund for the time periods indicated.  The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same.  Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your expenses would be as follows:

<R>
If shares are redeemed If shares are not redeemed
1 Year   3 Years   5 Years   10 Years   1 Year   3 Years   5 Years   10 Years  
Class A $ 567 $ 795 $ 1,041 $ 1,745 $ 567 $ 795 $ 1,041 $ 1,745
Class B $ 673 $ 871 $ 1,195 $ 1,793 $ 173 $ 571 $ 995 $ 1,793
Class C $ 273 $ 571 $ 995 $ 2,176 $ 173 $ 571 $ 995 $ 2,176
Class Y $ 87 $ 272 $ 473 $ 1,053 $ 87 $ 272 $ 473 $ 1,053
</R> <R>


Portfolio Turnover.
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in the annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 3% of the average value of its portfolio.

</R>

Principal Investment Strategies. Under normal market conditions, as a fundamental policy, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in securities the income from which, in the opinion of counsel to the issuer of each security, is exempt from both federal and Arizona state income tax. These securities are generally issued by the state and its political subdivisions (such as cities, towns, counties, agencies and authorities) and primarily include municipal bonds (long-term (more than one-year) obligations), municipal notes (short-term obligations) and interests in municipal leases. Municipal securities generally are classified as general or revenue obligations. General obligations are secured by the issuer's pledge of its full faith, credit and taxing power for the payment of prinicipal and interest. Revenue obligations are bonds whose interest is payable only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities, or a specific excise tax or other revenue source. The securities in which the Fund invests may also include those of issuers located outside of Arizona, such as U.S. territories, commonwealths and possessions, if the interest on such securities is not subject to federal or Arizona state income tax. These securities are "Arizona municipal securities" for purposes of this prospectus.

Securities whose interest is exempt from Arizona taxes are included for purposes of the Fund's 80% requirement discussed above, even if the issuer is located outside of Arizona. Securities that generate income subject to alternative minimum tax (AMT) will count towards the Fund's 80% requirement. The Fund selects investments without regard to this type of tax treatment.

<R>

Most of the securities the Fund buys are "investment-grade," although it can invest as much as 25% of its total assets in below investment-grade securities (commonly called "junk bonds"), which are subject to the special risks discussed below. Investment-grade securities are rated in one of the four highest rating categories of nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, such as Standard & Poor's (or, in the case of unrated securities, determined by the Fund's Sub-Adviser, OppenheimerFunds, Inc., to be comparable to securities rated investment-grade). The Fund also invests in unrated securities, in which case the Fund's Sub-Adviser internally assigns ratings to those securities, after assessing their credit quality and other factors, in investment-grade or below-investment-grade categories similar to those of nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. There can be no assurance, nor is it intended, that the Sub-Adviser's credit analysis process is consistent or comparable with the credit analysis process used by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization.

</R> <R>

The Fund does not limit its investments to securities of a particular maturity range, and may hold both short- and long-term securities. However, the Fund currently focuses on longer-term securities to seek higher yields. This portfolio strategy is subject to change. The Fund may invest in obligations that pay interest at fixed or variable rates.

</R> <R>

The Fund can invest in inverse floating rate securities, a type of variable rate instrument, to seek increased income and return. Inverse floating rate securities are leveraged instruments and the extent of their leverage will vary depending on the security's characteristics. The Fund limits its investments in inverse floating rate securities as further described in this Prospectus under "Principal Risks."

</R> <R>

The Fund can borrow money to purchase additional securities, another form of leverage. Although the amount of borrowing will vary from time to time, the amount of leveraging from borrowings will not exceed one-third of the Fund's total assets.

</R>

In selecting investments for the Fund, the portfolio managers look at a wide range of Arizona municipal securities from different issuers that provide high current income, including unrated bonds, that have favorable credit characteristics and that provide opportunities for value. The portfolio managers may consider selling a security if any of these factors no longer applies to a security purchased for the Fund, but are not required to do so.

<R>

Principal Risks. The price of the Fund's shares can go up and down substantially. The value of the Fund's investments may change because of broad changes in the markets in which the Fund invests or because of poor investment selection, which could cause the Fund to underperform other funds with similar investment objectives. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. When you redeem your shares, they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them. These risks mean that you can lose money by investing in the Fund.

</R> <R>

Main Risks of Investing in Municipal Securities. Municipal securities may be subject to interest rate risk, duration risk, credit risk, credit spread risk, extension risk, reinvestment risk and prepayment risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that when prevailing interest rates fall, the values of already-issued debt securities generally rise; and when prevailing interest rates rise, the values of already-issued debt securities generally fall, and they may be worth less than the amount the Fund paid for them. When interest rates change, the values of longer-term debt securities usually change more than the values of shorter-term debt securities.  Risks associated with rising interest rates are heightened given that interest rates in the U.S. are at, or near, historic lows. Duration risk is the risk that longer-duration debt securities will be more volatile and more likely to decline in price in a rising interest rate environment than shorter-duration debt securities.  Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a security might not make interest and principal payments on the security as they become due. If an issuer fails to pay interest or repay principal, the Fund's income or share value might be reduced. Adverse news about an issuer or a downgrade in an issuer's credit rating, for any reason, can also reduce the market value of the issuer's securities. "Credit spread" is the difference in yield between securities that is due to differences in their credit quality. There is a risk that credit spreads may increase when the market expects lower-grade bonds to default more frequently. Widening credit spreads may quickly reduce the market values of the Fund's lower-rated and unrated securities. Some unrated securities may not have an active trading market or may trade less actively than rated securities, which means that the Fund might have difficulty selling them promptly at an acceptable price. Extension risk is the risk that an increase in interest rates could cause principal payments on a debt security to be repaid at a slower rate than expected. Extension risk is particularly prevalent for a callable security where an increase in interest rates could result in the issuer of that security choosing not to redeem the security as anticipated on the security's call date. Such a decision by the issuer could have the effect of lengthening the debt security's expected maturity, making it more vulnerable to interest rate risk and reducing its market value. Reinvestment risk is the risk that when interest rates fall the Fund may be required to reinvest the proceeds from a security's sale or redemption at a lower interest rate. Callable bonds are generally subject to greater reinvestment risk than non-callable bonds. Prepayment risk is the risk that the issuer may redeem the security prior to the expected maturity or that borrowers may repay the loans that underlie these securities more quickly than expected, thereby causing the issuer of the security to repay the principal prior to the expected maturity. The Fund may need to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate, reducing its income.

</R> <R>

Special Risks of Below-Investment-Grade Securities. Below-investment-grade debt securities (also referred to as "junk" bonds) may be subject to greater price fluctuations than investment-grade securities, increased credit risk and face a greater risk that the issuer might not be able to pay interest and principal when due, especially during times of weakening economic conditions or rising interest rates. The market for below-investment-grade securities may be less liquid and therefore these securities may be harder to value or sell, especially during times of market volatility or decline.

</R> <R>

     Because the Fund can invest up to 25% of its assets in below-investment-grade securities, the Fund's credit risks are greater than those of funds that buy only investment-grade securities.  This restriction is applied at the time of purchase and the Fund may continue to hold a security whose credit rating has been downgraded or, in the case of an unrated security, after the Fund's Sub-Adviser has changed its assessment of the security's credit quality. As a result, credit rating downgrades or other market fluctuations may cause the Fund's holdings of below-investment-grade securities to exceed, at times significantly, this restriction for an extended period of time. Credit rating downgrades of a single issuer or related similar issuers whose securities the Fund holds in significant amounts could substantially and unexpectedly increase the Fund's exposure to below-investment-grade securities and the risks associated with them, especially liquidity and default risk.  If the Fund has more than 25% of its total assets invested in below-investment-grade securities, the Sub-Adviser will not purchase additional below-investment-grade securities until the level of holdings in those securities no longer exceeds the restriction.

</R>

Special Risks of Arizona Municipal Securities. Because the Fund invests primarily in Arizona municipal securities, the value of its portfolio investments will be highly sensitive to events affecting the financial stability of the State of Arizona and its municipalities, agencies, authorities and other instrumentalities that issue those securities. Budgetary stress on the state or its municipalities, changes in legislation or policy, erosion of the tax base, the effects of natural disasters, or other economic, legislative or political, or social issues may have a significant negative impact on the value of state or local securities.

<R>

Special Risks of Investing in U.S. Territories, Commonwealths and Possessions. The Fund also invests in obligations of the governments of the U.S. territories, commonwealths and possessions such as Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, or the Northern Mariana Islands to the extent such obligations are exempt from state income taxes. These investments also are considered to be the "Arizona municipal securities" for purposes of this prospectus. Accordingly, the Fund may be adversely affected by local political, economic and social conditions and developments within these U.S. territories, commonwealths and possessions affecting the issuers of such obligations.

</R> <R>

     Certain of the municipalities in which the Fund invests currently experience significant financial difficulties. A credit rating downgrade relating to, default by, or insolvency or bankruptcy of, one or several municipal security issuers of a state, territory, commonwealth or possession in which the Fund invests could affect the market values and marketability of many or all municipal obligations of such state, territory, commonwealth or possession.

</R>

Municipal Market Volatility and Illiquidity. The municipal bond market can be susceptible to unusual volatility, particularly for lower-rated and unrated securities. Liquidity can be reduced unpredictably in response to overall economic conditions or credit tightening. During times of reduced market liquidity, the Fund may not be able to readily sell bonds at the prices at which they are carried on the Fund's books. If the Fund needed to sell large blocks of bonds to meet shareholder redemption requests or to raise cash, those sales could further reduce the bonds' prices.

Municipal Sector Concentration. While the Fund does not invest more than 25% of its total assets in a single industry, certain types of municipal securities (such as general obligation, government appropriation, municipal leases, special assessment and special tax bonds) are not considered a part of any "industry" for purposes of this policy. Therefore, the Fund may invest more than 25% of its total assets in these types of municipal securities. These types of municipal securities may finance, or pay interest from the revenues of, projects that tend to be impacted in the same way by economic, business or political developments which would increase credit risk. For example, legislation on the financing of a project or a declining economic need for the project would likely affect all similar projects.

<R></R>

Risks of Tobacco Related Bonds. In 1998, the largest U.S. tobacco manufacturers reached an out of court agreement, known as the Master Settlement Agreement (the "MSA"), to settle claims against them by 46 states and six other U.S. jurisdictions. The tobacco manufacturers agreed to make annual payments to the government entities in exchange for the release of all litigation claims. A number of the states have sold bonds that are backed by those future payments. The Fund may invest in two types of those bonds: (i) bonds that make payments only from a state's interest in the MSA and (ii) bonds that make payments from both the MSA revenue and from an "appropriation pledge" by the state. An "appropriation pledge" requires the state to pass a specific periodic appropriation to make the payments and is generally not an unconditional guarantee of payment by a state.

The settlement payments are based on factors, including, but not limited to, annual domestic cigarette shipments, cigarette consumption, inflation and the financial capability of participating tobacco companies. Payments could be reduced if consumption decreases, if market share is lost to non-MSA manufacturers, or if there is a negative outcome in litigation regarding the MSA, including challenges by participating tobacco manufacturers regarding the amount of annual payments owed under the MSA.

The Fund can invest up to 25% of its total assets in tobacco-related bonds without an appropriation pledge that make payments only from a state's interest in the MSA.

Risks of Land-Secured or "Dirt" Bonds. These special assessment or special tax bonds are issued to promote residential, commercial or industrial growth and redevelopment. They are exposed to real estate development-related risks. The bonds could default if the developments failed to progress as anticipated or if taxpayers failed to pay the assessments, fees and taxes specified in the financing plans for a project.

<R>

Taxability Risk. The Fund's investments in municipal securities rely on the opinion of the issuer's bond counsel that the interest paid on those securities will not be subject to federal and state income tax. Income from tax-exempt municipal securities could be declared taxable because of unfavorable changes in tax laws, adverse interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service, state tax authorities, or a court, or the non-compliant conduct of a bond issuer.

</R> <R>

Main Risks of Borrowing and Leverage. The Fund can borrow up to one-third of the value of its total assets (including the amount borrowed) from banks, as permitted by the Investment Company Act of 1940. It can use those borrowings for a number of purposes, including for purchasing securities, which can create "leverage." In that case, changes in the value of the Fund's investments will have a larger effect on its share price than if it did not borrow. Borrowing results in interest payments to the lenders and related expenses.  Borrowing for investment purposes might reduce the Fund's return if the yield on the securities purchased is less than those borrowing costs. The Fund may also borrow to meet redemption obligations, for temporary and emergency purposes, or to unwind or contribute to trusts in connection with the Fund's investment in inverse floaters (instruments also involving the use of leverage, as discussed below). The Fund currently participates in a line of credit with other Oppenheimer funds for its borrowing.

</R> <R>

The Fund can participate in a committed reverse repurchase agreement program. Reverse repurchase agreements that the Fund may engage in also create leverage. A reverse repurchase agreement is the sale by the Fund of a debt obligation to a party for a specified price, with the simultaneous agreement by the Fund to repurchase that debt obligation from that party on a future date at a higher price. Similar to a borrowing, reverse repurchase agreements provide the Fund with cash for investment and operational purposes. When the Fund engages in reverse repurchase agreements, changes in the value of the Fund's investments will have a larger effect on its share price than if it did not engage in these transactions due to the effect of leverage. Reverse repurchase agreements create fund expenses and require that the Fund have sufficient cash available to repurchase the debt obligation when required. Reverse repurchase agreements also involve the risk that the market value of the debt obligation that is the subject of the reverse repurchase agreement could decline significantly below the price at which the Fund is obligated to repurchase the security.

</R> <R>

Main Risks of Derivative Investments. Derivatives may involve significant risks. Derivatives may be more volatile than other types of investments, require the payment of premiums, can increase portfolio turnover, may be illiquid, and may not perform as expected. Derivatives are subject to counterparty risk and the Fund may lose money on a derivative investment if the issuer or counterparty fails to pay the amount due. Some derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the Fund's initial investment. As a result of these risks, the Fund could realize little or no income or lose money from its investment, or a hedge might be unsuccessful. In addition, under new rules enacted and currently being implemented under U.S. financial reform legislation, certain over-the-counter derivatives are (or soon will be) required to be executed on a regulated market and cleared through a central clearing house counterparty. It is unclear how these regulatory changes will affect counterparty risk, and entering into a derivative transaction with a central clearing house counterparty may entail further risks and costs.

</R> <R>

Inverse Floaters. The Fund invests in inverse floating rate securities ("inverse floaters") because, under ordinary circumstances, they offer higher yields and thus provide higher income than fixed-rate municipal bonds of comparable maturity and credit quality. Because inverse floaters are leveraged instruments, the value of an inverse floater will change more significantly in response to changes in interest rates and other market fluctuations than the market value of a conventional fixed-rate municipal security of comparable maturity and credit quality, including the municipal bond underlying an inverse floater.  During periods of rising interest rates, the market values of inverse floaters will tend to decline more quickly than those of fixed-rate securities.

</R> <R> An inverse floater is created when a fixed-rate municipal bond is contributed to a trust. The trust issues two separate classes of securities: short-term floating rate securities with a fixed principal amount that represent a senior interest in the underlying municipal bond, and the inverse floater that represents a residual, subordinate interest in the underlying municipal bond. The trust issues and sells the short-term floating rate securities to third parties and the inverse floater to the Fund. The short-term floating rate securities generally bear short-term rates of interest. When interest is paid on the underlying municipal bond to the trust, such proceeds are first used to pay interest owing to holders of the short-term floating rate securities, with any remaining amounts being paid to the Fund, as the holder of the inverse floater. Accordingly, the amount of such interest paid to the Fund is inversely related to the rate of interest on the short-term floating rate securities. Inverse floaters produce less income when short-term interest rates rise (and, in extreme cases, may pay no income) and more income when short-term interest rates fall. Thus, if short-term interest rates rise after the issuance of the inverse floater, any yield advantage to the Fund is reduced and may be eliminated. Additionally, because the principal amount of the short-term floating rate security is fixed and is not adjusted in response to changes in the market value of the underlying municipal bond, any change in the market value of the underlying municipal bond is reflected entirely in a change to the value of the inverse floater. Upon the occurrence of certain adverse events, a trust may be collapsed and the underlying municipal bond liquidated, and the Fund could lose the entire amount of its investment in the inverse floater and may, in some cases, be contractually required to pay the negative difference, if any, between the liquidation value of the underlying municipal bond and the principal amount of the short-term floating rate securities.

</R> <R>

The Fund may invest in inverse floaters with any degree of leverage (measured by comparing the outstanding principal amount of related short-term floating rate securities to the par value of the underlying municipal bond). However, the Fund may only expose up to 20% of its total assets to the effects of leverage from its investments in inverse floaters. This limitation is measured by comparing the aggregate principal amount of the short-term floating rate securities that are related to the inverse floaters held by the Fund to the total assets of the Fund. Nevertheless, the value of, and income earned on, an inverse floater that has a higher degree of leverage (represented by a larger outstanding principal amount of related short-term floating rate securities) will fluctuate more significantly in response to changes in interest rates and to changes in the market value of the related underlying municipal bond, and are more likely to be eliminated entirely under adverse market conditions.

</R>

 

Who Is The Fund Designed For? The Fund is designed for investors seeking income exempt from federal and Arizona state personal income taxes. The Fund does not seek capital gains or growth. Because it invests in tax-exempt securities, the Fund is not appropriate for retirement plan accounts or for investors seeking capital growth. The Fund is not a complete investment program. You should carefully consider your own investment goals and risk tolerance before investing.

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.

Taxes. Dividends paid from net investment income on tax-exempt municipal securities will be excludable from gross income for federal individual income tax purposes. Dividends that are derived from interest paid on certain "private activity bonds" may be an item of tax preference if you are subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. Certain distributions may be taxable as ordinary income or as capital gains. The tax treatment of dividends is the same whether they are taken in cash or reinvested.

<R>

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries. If you purchase Fund shares through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund, the Sub-Adviser, or their related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.

MORE ABOUT THE FUND

About the Fund's Investments

<R>

The allocation of the Fund's portfolio among different types of investments will vary over time and the Fund's portfolio might not always include all of the different types of investments described below. The Statement of Additional Information contains additional information about the Fund's investment policies and risks.

</R>

The Fund's Principal Investment Strategies and Risks.  The strategies and types of investments discussed in the Fund Summary are the ones that the Fund considers to be the most important in seeking to achieve its investment objective.  Additionally, the following strategies and risks are those the Fund expects its portfolio to be subject to as a whole.

<R>

The Sub-Adviser tries to reduce risks by selecting a wide variety of municipal investments and by carefully researching securities before they are purchased. However, changes in the overall market prices of municipal securities and the income they pay can occur at any time. The yield and share prices of the Fund can change daily based on changes in interest rates and market conditions and in response to other economic events.

</R>

     Unless this prospectus or the Statement of Additional Information states that an investment percentage restriction applies on an ongoing basis, it applies only at the time the Fund makes an investment (except for borrowing and investments in illiquid securities).

Municipal Securities.   Municipal securities are issued to raise money for a variety of public or private purposes, including financing state or local governments, financing specific projects or financing public facilities. These debt obligations are issued by the state governments, as well as their political subdivisions (such as cities, towns, and counties) and their agencies and authorities. The Fund buys municipal bonds and notes, tax-exempt commercial paper, certificates of participation in municipal leases and other debt obligations. Municipal securities generally are classified as general or revenue obligations. General obligations are secured by the issuer's pledge of its full faith, credit and taxing power for the payment of principal and interest. Revenue obligations are bonds whose interest is payable only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities, or a specific excise tax or other revenue source. Some revenue obligations are private activity bonds that pay interest that may be a tax preference item for investors subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. The Fund selects investments without regard to this type of tax treatment.

<R>

Additionally, there are times when an issuer will pledge its taxing power to offer additional security to a revenue bond. These securities are sometimes called "double-barreled bonds." 

</R>

The Fund can buy both long-term and short-term municipal securities. Long-term securities have a maturity of more than one year. The Fund generally focuses on longer-term securities to seek higher income.

      Arizona municipal securities are municipal securities that are not subject (in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer at the time they are issued) to federal and Arizona individual income tax. The term "Arizona municipal securities" also includes debt securities of the governments of certain possessions, territories and commonwealths of the United States if the interest is not subject to federal and Arizona individual income tax. For additional discussion of the special considerations relating to the Fund's investments in Arizona and the U.S. territories, commonwealths and possessions, see the Statement of Additional Information. Some debt securities, such as zero-coupon securities, do not pay current interest. Other securities may be subject to calls by the issuer (to redeem the debt) or to prepayment prior to their stated maturity.

<R>

Municipal securities may be subject to the following risks:

</R> <R>
  • Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that rising interest rates, or an expectation of rising interest rates in the near future, will cause the values of the Fund's investments to decline. The values of debt securities usually change when prevailing interest rates change. When interest rates rise, the values of outstanding debt securities generally fall, and those securities may sell at a discount from their face amount. When interest rates rise, the decrease in values of outstanding debt securities may not be offset by higher income from new investments. When interest rates fall, the values of already-issued debt securities generally rise. However, when interest rates fall, the Fund's investments in new securities may be at lower yields and may reduce the Fund's income. The values of longer-term debt securities usually change more than the values of shorter-term debt securities when interest rates change; thus, interest rate risk is usually greater for securities with longer maturities or durations. "Zero-coupon" or "stripped" securities may be particularly sensitive to interest rate changes. Risks associated with rising interest rates are heightened given that interest rates in the U.S. are at, or near, historic lows.
</R> <R>
  • Duration Risk. Duration risk is the risk that longer-duration debt securities are more likely to decline in price than shorter-duration debt securities, in a rising interest-rate environment. Duration is a measure of the price sensitivity of a debt security or portfolio to interest rate changes. "Effective duration" attempts to measure the expected percentage change in the value of a bond or portfolio resulting from a change in prevailing interest rates. The change in the value of a bond or portfolio can be approximated by multiplying its duration by a change in interest rates. For example, if a bond has an effective duration of three years, a 1% increase in general interest rates would be expected to cause the bond's value to decline about 3% while a 1% decrease in general interest rates would be expected to cause the bond's value to increase 3%. The duration of a debt security may be equal to or shorter than the full maturity of a debt security.
</R> <R>
  • Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a security might not make interest and principal payments on the security as they become due. U.S. government securities generally have lower credit risks than securities issued by private issuers or certain foreign governments. If an issuer fails to pay interest, the Fund's income might be reduced, and if an issuer fails to repay principal, the value of the security might fall and the Fund could lose the amount of its investment in the security. The extent of this risk varies based on the terms of the particular security and the financial condition of the issuer. A downgrade in an issuer's credit rating or other adverse news about an issuer, for any reason, can reduce the market value of that issuer's securities.
</R> <R>
  • Credit Spread Risk. Credit spread risk the risk that credit spreads (i.e., the difference in yield between securities that is due to differences in their credit quality) may increase when the market expects lower-grade bonds to default more frequently. Widening credit spreads may quickly reduce the market values of the Fund's lower-rated and unrated securities. Some unrated securities may not have an active trading market or may trade less actively than rated securities, which means that the Fund might have difficulty selling them promptly at an acceptable price.
</R> <R>
  • Extension Risk. Extension risk is the risk that, if interest rates rise rapidly, repayments of principal on certain debt securities may occur at a slower rate than expected, and the expected maturity of those securities could lengthen as a result. Securities that are subject to extension risk generally have a greater potential for loss when prevailing interest rates rise, which could cause their values to fall sharply. Extension risk is particularly prevalent for a callable security where an increase in interest rates could result in the issuer of that security choosing not to redeem the security as anticipated on the security's call date. Such a decision by the issuer could have the effect of lengthening the debt security's expected maturity, making it more vulnerable to interest rate risk and reducing its market value.
</R> <R>
  • Reinvestment Risk. Reinvestment risk is the risk that when interest rates fall, the Fund may be required to reinvest the proceeds from a security's sale or redemption at a lower interest rate. Callable bonds are generally subject to greater reinvestment risk than non-callable bonds.
</R> <R>
  • Prepayment Risk. Certain fixed-income securities are subject to the risk of unanticipated prepayment. Prepayment risk is the risk that, when interest rates fall, the issuer will redeem the security prior to the security's expected maturity, or that borrowers will repay the loans that underlie these fixed-income securities more quickly than expected, thereby causing the issuer of the security to repay the principal prior to expected maturity. The Fund may need to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate, reducing its income. Securities subject to prepayment risk generally offer less potential for gains when prevailing interest rates fall. If the Fund buys those securities at a premium, accelerated prepayments on those securities could cause the Fund to lose a portion of its principal investment. The impact of prepayments on the price of a security may be difficult to predict and may increase the security's price volatility. Interest-only and principal-only securities are especially sensitive to interest rate changes, which can affect not only their prices but can also change the income flows and repayment assumptions about those investments.
</R> <R>

U.S. Territories, Commonwealths and Possessions. The Fund also invests in obligations of the governments of the U.S. territories, commonwealths and possessions such as Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands to the extent such obligations are exempt from state income taxes.  Accordingly, the Fund may be adversely affected by local political, economic and social conditions and developments within these U.S. territories, commonwealths and possessions affecting the issuers of such obligations. A discussion of the special considerations relating to the Fund's municipal obligations and other factors or economic conditions in those territories, commonwealths or possessions is provided in an Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information. 

</R> <R>

     Significant Investment in Puerto Rico Municipal Securities. As of its most recent fiscal year-end, the Fund invested a significant percentage of its total assets in Puerto Rican municipal securities, which are exempt from federal, state, and, where applicable, local income taxes. The Sub-Adviser expects the Fund to remain invested in municipal securities issued in Puerto Rico, subject to market, economic and political conditions. Like many U.S. states and municipalities, Puerto Rico experienced a significant downturn during the recent recession. Puerto Rico continues to face significant fiscal challenges, including persistent government deficits, underfunded public pension benefit obligations, underfunded government retirement systems, sizable debt service obligations and a high unemployment rate. As a result of Puerto Rico's challenging economic and fiscal environment, many ratings organizations have downgraded a number of securities issued in Puerto Rico or placed them on "negative watch"; the Fund holds some of these securities. If the economic situation in Puerto Rico persists or worsens, the volatility, credit quality and performance of the Fund could be adversely affected.

</R>

Tax-Exempt Commercial Paper.  Tax-exempt commercial paper is a short-term obligation with a stated maturity of usually 270 days or less. It is issued by state and local governments or their agencies to finance seasonal working capital needs or as short-term financing in anticipation of longer-term financing. While tax-exempt commercial paper is intended to be repaid from general revenues or refinanced, it frequently is backed by a letter of credit, lending arrangement, note, repurchase agreement or other credit facility agreement offered by a bank or financial institution. Because tax-exempt issuers may constantly reissue their commercial paper and use the proceeds (or other sources) to repay maturing paper, the commercial paper of a tax-exempt issuer that is unable to continue to obtain liquidity in that manner may default. There may be a limited secondary market for issues of tax-exempt commercial paper.

Municipal Lease Obligations. Municipal leases are used by state and local governments to obtain funds to acquire land, equipment or facilities. The Fund can invest in certificates of participation that represent a proportionate interest in payments made under municipal lease obligations. Most municipal leases, while secured by the leased property, are not general obligations of the issuing municipality. They often contain "non-appropriation" clauses under which the municipal government has no obligation to make lease or installment payments in future years unless money is appropriated on a yearly basis.

If the municipal government stops making payments or transfers its payment obligations to a private entity, the obligation could lose value or become taxable. Although the obligation may be secured by the leased equipment or facilities, the disposition of the property in the event of non-appropriation or foreclosure might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and may result in a delay in recovering or the failure to recover the original investment. Some lease obligations may not have an active trading market, making it difficult for the Fund to sell them quickly at an acceptable price.

Tobacco Related Bonds. The Fund may invest in two types of tobacco related bonds: (i) tobacco settlement revenue bonds, for which payments of interest and principal are made solely from a state's interest in the Master Settlement Agreement ("MSA") and (ii) tobacco bonds subject to a state's appropriation pledge, for which payments may come from both the MSA revenue and the applicable state's appropriation pledge.

  • Tobacco Settlement Revenue Bonds. For purposes of the Fund's industry concentration policy, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in tobacco settlement revenue bonds. Tobacco settlement revenue bonds are secured by an issuing state's proportionate share in the MSA, a litigation settlement agreement reached out of court in November 1998 between 46 states and six other U.S. jurisdictions and the four largest U.S. tobacco manufacturers at that time. Subsequently, a number of smaller tobacco manufacturers signed on to the MSA, which provides for annual payments by the manufacturers to the states and other jurisdictions in perpetuity. The MSA established a base payment schedule and a formula for adjusting payments each year. Tobacco manufacturers pay into a master escrow trust based on their market share and each state receives a fixed percentage of the payment.

     A number of states have securitized the future flow of those payments by selling bonds, some through distinct governmental entities created for such purpose. The bonds are backed by the future revenue flows from the tobacco manufacturers. Annual payments on the bonds, and thus the risk to the Fund, are highly dependent on the receipt of future settlement payments. The amount of future settlement payments is dependent on many factors including, but not limited to, annual domestic cigarette shipments, cigarette consumption, inflation and the financial capability of participating tobacco companies. As a result, payments made by tobacco manufacturers could be reduced if the decrease in tobacco consumption is significantly greater than the forecasted decline. A market share loss by the MSA companies to non-MSA participating tobacco manufacturers could also cause a downward adjustment in the payment amounts. A participating manufacturer filing for bankruptcy also could cause delays or reductions in bond payments, which could affect the Fund's net asset value.

     The MSA and tobacco manufacturers have been and continue to be subject to various legal claims, including challenges by participating tobacco manufacturers regarding the amount of annual payments owed under the MSA, and an adverse outcome could affect the payment streams associated with the MSA or cause delays or reductions in bond payments. The MSA itself has been subject to legal challenges and has, to date, withstood those challenges. The Statement of Additional Information contains more detailed information about the litigation related to the tobacco industry and the MSA.

  •   "Subject to Appropriation" (STA) Tobacco Bonds. In addition to the tobacco settlement bonds discussed above, the Fund also may invest in tobacco related bonds that are subject to a state's appropriation pledge ("STA Tobacco Bonds"). STA Tobacco Bonds rely on both the revenue source from the MSA and a state appropriation pledge. These STA Tobacco Bonds are part of a larger category of municipal bonds that are subject to state appropriation. Although specific provisions may vary among states, "government appropriation" or "subject to appropriation" bonds (also referred to as "appropriation debt") are typically payable from two distinct sources: (i) a dedicated revenue source such as a municipal enterprise, a special tax or, in the case of tobacco bonds, the MSA funds, and (ii) from the issuer's general funds.

     Appropriation debt differs from a state's general obligation debt in that general obligation debt is backed by the state's full faith, credit and taxing power, while appropriation debt requires the state to pass a specific periodic appropriation to pay interest and/or principal on the bonds. The appropriation is usually made annually. While STA Tobacco Bonds offer an enhanced credit support feature, that feature is generally not an unconditional guarantee of payment by a state and states generally do not pledge the full faith, credit or taxing power of the state. The Fund considers STA Tobacco Bonds to be "municipal securities" for purposes of its concentration policies.

Municipal Sector Concentration. While the Fund's fundamental policies do not allow it to concentrate its investments (that is, to invest more than 25% of its total assets) in a single industry, certain types of municipal securities are not considered a part of any "industry" under that policy.  Examples of these types of municipal securities include:  general obligation, government appropriation, municipal leases, special assessment and special tax bonds.  Therefore, the Fund may invest more than 25% of its total assets in these types of municipal securities, which may finance similar types of projects or from which the interest is paid from revenues of similar types of projects.  "Similar types of projects" are projects that are related in such a way that economic, business or political developments tend to have the same impact on each similar project.  For example, a change that affects one project, such as proposed legislation on the financing of the project, a shortage of the materials needed for the project, or a declining economic need for the project, would likely affect all similar projects, thereby increasing market risk.  Thus, market or economic changes that affect a security issued in connection with one project also would affect securities issued in connection with similar types of projects. 

Although these types of municipal securities may be related to certain industries, because they are issued by governments or their political subdivisions, these types of municipal securities are not considered a part of any industry for purposes of the Fund's industry concentration policy.

<R>

Land-Secured or "Dirt" Bonds (Special Tax or Special Assessment Bonds). The Fund can invest more than 25% of its total assets in municipal securities for similar types of projects that are issued in connection with special taxing districts that are organized to plan and finance infrastructure development to induce residential, commercial and industrial growth and redevelopment. The bonds financed by these methods, such as tax assessment, special tax or tax increment financing generally are payable solely from taxes or other revenues attributable to the specific projects financed by the bonds without recourse to the credit or taxing power of related or overlapping municipalities. These projects often are exposed to real estate development-related risks, such as the failure of property development, availability of financing, extended vacancies of properties, increased competition, limitations on rents, changes in neighborhood values and the demand of properties to tenants, and changes in interest rates. These real estate risks may be heightened in the event that these projects are in foreclosure. Additionally, upon foreclosure the Fund may pay certain maintenance or operating expenses or taxes relating to such projects. These expenses may increase the overall expenses of the Fund and reduce its returns.

</R> <R>

In addition, these projects can have more taxpayer concentration risk than general tax-supported bonds, such as general obligation bonds. Further, the fees, special taxes, or tax allocations and other revenues that are established to secure such financings generally are limited as to the rate or amount that may be levied or assessed and are not subject to increase pursuant to rate covenants or municipal or corporate guarantees. The bonds could default if development failed to progress as anticipated or if larger taxpayers failed to pay the assessments, fees and taxes as provided in the financing plans of the projects.

</R> <R>

Ratings of Municipal Securities the Fund Buys. The Sub-Adviser may rely to some extent on credit ratings by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations in evaluating the credit risk of securities selected for the Fund's portfolio.  Credit ratings evaluate the expectation that scheduled interest and principal payments will be made in a timely manner. They do not reflect any judgment of market risk.  Ratings and market value may change from time to time, positively or negatively, to reflect new developments regarding the issuer.

</R> <R>

Rating organizations might not change their credit rating of an issuer in a timely manner to reflect events that could affect the issuer's ability to make timely payments on its obligations. In selecting securities for its portfolio and evaluating their income potential and credit risk, the Fund does not rely solely on ratings by rating organizations but evaluates business, economic and other factors affecting issuers as well. Many factors affect an issuer's ability to make timely payments, and the credit risk of a particular security may change over time. The Sub-Adviser also may use its own research and analysis to assess those risks. If a bond is insured, it will usually be rated by the rating organizations based on the financial strength of the insurer. The rating categories are described in an Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information. 

</R> <R>

Most of the municipal securities the Fund buys are "investment-grade" at the time of purchase. "Investment-grade" securities are those rated within the four highest rating categories of Standard & Poor's, Moody's, Fitch or another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (or, in the case of unrated securities, determined by the Sub-Adviser to be comparable to securities rated investment-grade). While securities rated within the fourth highest category by Standard & Poor's (meaning BBB+, BBB or BBB-) or by Moody's (meaning Baa1, Baa2 or Baa3) are considered "investment-grade," they have some speculative characteristics. If two or more nationally recognized statistical rating organizations have assigned different ratings to a security, the Sub-Adviser uses the highest rating assigned. 

</R> <R>

Risks of Below-Investment-Grade Securities. Below-investment-grade securities (also referred to as "junk bonds") generally have higher yields than securities rated in the higher rating categories but also have higher risk profiles. Below-investment-grade securities are considered to be speculative and entail greater risk with respect to the ability of the issuer to timely repay principal and pay interest or dividends in accordance with the terms of the obligation and may have more credit risk than investment-grade rated securities, especially during times of weakening economic conditions or rising interest rates. These additional risks mean that the Fund may not receive the anticipated level of income from these securities, and the Fund's net asset value may be affected by declines in the value of lower-grade securities. The major risks of below-investment-grade securities include:

</R> <R>
  • Prices of below-investment-grade securities are subject to extreme price fluctuations, even under normal market conditions. Adverse changes in an issuer's industry and general economic conditions may have a greater impact on the prices of below-investment-grade securities than on the prices of higher-rated fixed-income securities.
</R> <R>
  • Below-investment-grade securities may be issued by less creditworthy issuers and may be more likely to default than investment-grade securities. Issuers of below-investment-grade securities may have more outstanding debt relative to their assets than issuers of higher-grade securities. Issuers of below-investment-grade securities may be unable to meet their interest or principal payment obligations because of an economic downturn, specific issuer developments, or the unavailability of additional financing.
</R> <R>
  • In the event of an issuer's bankruptcy, claims of other creditors may have priority over the claims of below-investment-grade securities holders.
</R> <R>
  • Below-investment-grade securities may be less liquid than higher rated fixed-income securities, even under normal market conditions. There are fewer dealers in the below-investment-grade securities market and there may be significant differences in the prices quoted by the dealers. Because they are less liquid, judgment may play a greater role in valuing certain of the Fund's securities than is the case with securities trading in a more liquid market.
</R> <R>
  • Below-investment-grade securities typically contain redemption provisions that permit the issuer of the securities containing such provisions to redeem the securities at its discretion. If the issuer redeems below-investment-grade securities, the Fund may have to invest the proceeds in securities with lower yields and may lose income.
</R> <R>
  • Below-investment-grade securities markets may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse credit, economic, or market conditions than higher rated securities.
</R> <R>

     The Fund can invest up to 25% of its total assets in below-investment-grade securities. This restriction is applied at the time of purchase and the Fund may continue to hold a security whose credit rating has been downgraded or, in case of an unrated security, after the Fund's Sub-Adviser has changed its assessment of the security's credit quality. As a result, credit rating downgrades or other market fluctuations may cause the Fund's holdings of below-investment-grade securities to exceed, at times significantly, this restriction for an extended period of time.  Credit rating downgrades of a single issuer or related similar issuers whose securities the Fund holds in significant amounts could substantially and unexpectedly increase the Fund's exposure to below-investment-grade securities and the risks associated with them, especially liquidity and default risk.  If the Fund has more than 25% of its total assets invested in below-investment-grade securities, the Sub-Adviser will not purchase additional below-investment-grade securities until the level of holdings in those securities no longer exceeds the restriction.

</R> <R>

     Unrated Securities . Because the Fund purchases securities that are not rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, the Sub-Adviser may internally assign ratings to those securities, after assessing their credit quality and other factors, in categories similar to those of nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. There can be no assurance, nor is it intended, that the Sub-Adviser's credit analysis process is consistent or comparable with the credit analysis process used by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Unrated securities are considered "investment-grade" or "below-investment-grade" if judged by the Sub-Adviser to be comparable to rated investment-grade or below-investment-grade securities. The Sub-Adviser's rating does not constitute a guarantee of the credit quality. In addition, some unrated securities may not have an active trading market or may trade less actively than rated securities, which means that the Fund might have difficulty selling them promptly at an acceptable price.

</R> <R>

In evaluating the credit quality of a particular security, whether rated or unrated, the Sub-Adviser will normally take into consideration a number of factors including, but not limited to, the financial resources of the issuer, the underlying source of funds for debt service on a security, the issuer's sensitivity to economic conditions and trends, any operating history of the facility financed by the obligation, the degree of community support for the financed facility, the capabilities of the issuer's management, and regulatory factors affecting the issuer or the particular facility.

</R> <R>

A reduction in the rating of a security after the Fund buys it will not require the Fund to dispose of the security. However, the Sub-Adviser will evaluate such downgraded securities to determine whether to keep them in the Fund's portfolio.

</R> <R>

Taxability Risk. The Fund's investments in municipal securities rely on the opinion of the issuer's bond counsel that the interest paid on those securities will not be subject to federal and state income tax. Tax opinions are generally provided at the time the municipal security is initially issued. However, after the Fund buys a security, the Internal Revenue Service may determine that a bond issued as tax-exempt should in fact be taxable and the Fund's dividends with respect to that bond might be subject to federal income tax.   In addition, income from tax-exempt municipal securities could be declared taxable because of unfavorable changes in tax laws, adverse interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service, state tax authorities, or a court, or the non-compliant conduct of a bond issuer.

</R> <R>

Borrowing and Leverage.    The Fund can borrow from banks, a technique referred to as "leverage," in amounts up to one-third of the Fund's total assets (including the amount borrowed) less all liabilities and indebtedness other than borrowings. The Fund can use those borrowings for investment-related purposes such as purchasing securities believed to be desirable by the Sub-Adviser when available, funding amounts necessary to unwind or "collapse" trusts that issued "inverse floaters" to the Fund (an investment vehicle used by the Fund as described in this prospectus), or to contribute to such trusts to enable them to meet tenders of their other securities by the holders. The Fund currently participates in a line of credit with other Oppenheimer funds for those purposes.  The Fund may also borrow to meet redemption obligations or for temporary and emergency purposes.  

</R>

Borrowing for leverage will subject the Fund to greater costs (for interest payments to the lender, origination fees and related expenses) than funds that do not borrow for leverage and these other purposes.  The interest on borrowed money is an expense that might reduce the Fund's yield, especially if the cost of borrowing to buy securities exceeds the yield on the securities purchased with the proceeds of a loan.  Using leverage may also make the Fund's share price more sensitive, i.e. volatile, to interest rate changes than if the Fund did not use leverage due to the tendency to exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund's portfolio securities.  The use of leverage may also cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations or meet segregation requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

<R>

Derivative Investments. The Fund can invest in different types of "derivative" instruments that are consistent with its investment strategies. A derivative is an instrument whose value depends on (or is derived from) the value of an underlying security, asset, interest rate, index or currency. Inverse floaters are the primary type of derivative the Fund can use.

</R> <R>

Risks of Derivative Investments. Derivatives may be volatile and may involve significant risks. The underlying security, obligor or other instrument on which a derivative is based, or the derivative itself, may not perform as expected. For some derivatives, it is possible to lose more than the amount invested in the derivative investment. In addition, some derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the Fund's initial investment. Certain derivative investments held by the Fund may be illiquid, making it difficult to close out an unfavorable position. Derivative transactions may require the payment of premiums and can increase portfolio turnover. Derivatives are subject to credit risk, since the Fund may lose money on a derivative investment if the issuer or counterparty fails to pay the amount due. As a result of these risks, the Fund could realize little or no income or lose money from the investment, or the use of a derivative for hedging might be unsuccessful.

</R> <R>

In addition, under U.S. financial reform legislation enacted in 2010 and currently being implemented, certain over-the-counter derivatives, including certain interest rate swaps and certain credit default swaps, are (or soon will be) required to be executed on a regulated market and cleared through a central clearing house counterparty, which may result in increased margin requirements and costs for a fund. It is unclear how these regulatory changes will affect counterparty risk, and entering into a derivative transaction with a central clearing house counterparty may entail further risks and costs, including the counterparty risk of the central clearing house counterparty and the futures commission merchant through which the fund accesses the clearing house.

</R> <R>

The Fund may use derivatives to seek income or capital gain to hedge against the risks of other investments. Derivatives may allow the Fund to increase or decrease its exposure to certain markets or risks. Examples include, but are not limited to, interest rate swaps or municipal bond swaps. While the Fund may use derivatives for hedging purposes, it typically does not use hedging instruments, such as options, to hedge investment risks.

</R> <R>

Inverse Floaters. The Fund may invest in inverse floaters to seek greater income and total return. Inverse floaters, under ordinary circumstances, offer higher yields and thus provide higher income than fixed-rate municipal bonds of comparable maturity and credit quality. During periods of rising interest rates, the market values of inverse floaters will tend to decline more quickly than those of fixed rate securities.

</R> <R>

An inverse floater is created as part of a "tender option bond" transaction. In most cases, in a tender option bond transaction the Fund sells a fixed-rate municipal bond (the "underlying municipal bond") to a broker dealer (the "sponsor"). The sponsor creates a trust (the "Trust") into which it deposits the underlying municipal bond. The Trust then issues and sells short-term floating rate securities with a fixed principal amount representing a senior interest in the underlying municipal bond to third parties and the inverse floater, representing a residual, subordinate interest in the underlying municipal bond, to the Fund. The proceeds of the sale of the bond by the Fund remaining after it buys the inverse floater can be used for any purpose. The interest rate on the short-term floating rate securities resets periodically, usually weekly, to a prevailing market rate and holders of these securities are granted the option to tender their securities back to the Trust for repurchase at their principal amount plus accrued interest thereon (the "purchase price") periodically, usually daily or weekly. A remarketing agent for the Trust (typically an affiliate of the sponsor) is required to attempt to re-sell any tendered short-term floating rate securities to new investors for the purchase price. If the remarketing agent is unable to successfully re-sell the tendered short-term floating rate securities, a liquidity provider to the Trust (typically an affiliate of the sponsor) must contribute cash to the Trust to ensure that the tendering holders receive the purchase price of their securities on the repurchase date.

</R> <R>

The Fund may also purchase an inverse floater created as part of a tender option bond transaction not initiated by the Fund when a third party, such as a municipal issuer or financial institution, transfers an underlying municipal bond to a Trust.

</R> <R>

Because holders of the short-term floating rate securities are granted the right to tender their securities to the Trust for repurchase at frequent intervals for the purchase price, with such payment effectively guaranteed by the liquidity provider, the securities generally bear short-term rates of interest commensurate with money market instruments. When interest is paid on the underlying municipal bond to the Trust, such proceeds are first used to pay the Trust's administrative expenses and accrued interest to holders of the short-term floating rate securities, with any remaining amounts being paid to the Fund, as the holder of the inverse floater. Accordingly, the amount of such interest on the underlying municipal bond paid to the Fund is inversely related the rate of interest on the short-term floating rate securities. Additionally, because the principal amount of the short-term floating rate securities is fixed and is not adjusted in response to changes in the market value of the underlying municipal bond, any change in the market value of the underlying municipal bond is reflected entirely in a change to the value of the inverse floater.

</R> <R>

Typically, the terms of an inverse floater grant the Fund, as holder, the right to voluntarily terminate the Trust and to obtain the underlying municipal bond. To do so, the Fund would generally need to pay the Trust the purchase price of the short-term floating rate securities and a specified portion of any market value gain on the underlying municipal bond since its deposit into the Trust. Through the exercise of such right, the Fund can "collapse" the Trust, terminate its investment in the related inverse floater and obtain the underlying municipal bond. Additionally, the Fund also typically has the right to exchange with the Trust (i) a principal amount of short-term floating rate securities held by the Fund for a corresponding additional principal amount of the inverse floater or (ii) a principal amount of the inverse floater held by the Fund for a corresponding additional principal amount of short-term floating rate securities (which are typically then sold to other investors). Through the exercise of this right, the Fund may increase (or decrease) the principal amount of short-term floating rate securities outstanding, thereby increasing (or decreasing) the amount of leverage provided by the short-term floating rate securities to the Fund's investment exposure to the underlying municipal bond.

</R> <R>

The Fund's investments in inverse floaters involve certain risks. As short-term interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce less current income (and, in extreme cases, may pay no income) and as short-term interest rates fall, inverse floaters produce more current income. Thus, if short-term interest rates rise after the issuance of the inverse floater, any yield advantage to the Fund is reduced and may be eliminated. All inverse floaters entail some degree of leverage represented by the outstanding principal amount of the related short-term floating rate securities.

</R> <R></R> <R></R> <R>

The value of, and income earned on, an inverse floater that has a higher degree of leverage (represented by a larger outstanding principal amount of related short-term floating rate securities relative to the par value of the underlying municipal bond) will fluctuate more significantly in response to changes in interest rates and to changes in the market value of the related underlying municipal bond than that of an inverse floater having a lower degree of leverage. Changes in the value of an inverse floater will also be more significant than changes in the market value of the related underlying municipal bond because the leverage provided by the related short-term floating rate security increases the sensitivity of an inverse floater to changes in interest rates and to the market value of the underlying municipal bond. An inverse floater can be expected to underperform fixed-rate municipal bonds when the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates is decreasing (or is already small) or when long-term interest rates are rising, but can be expected to outperform fixed-rate municipal bonds when the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates is increasing (or is already large) or when long-term interest rates are falling. Additionally, a tender option bond transaction typically provides for the automatic termination or "collapse" of a Trust upon the occurrence of certain adverse events, usually referred to as "mandatory tender events" or "tender option termination events." These events may include, among others, a credit ratings downgrade of the underlying municipal bond below a specified level, a decrease in the market value of the underlying municipal bond below a specified amount, a bankruptcy of the liquidity provider or the inability of the remarketing agent to re-sell to new investors short-term floating rate securities that have been tendered for repurchase. Following such an event, the underlying municipal bond is generally sold for current market value and the proceeds distributed to holders of the short-term floating rate securities and inverse floater, with the holder of the inverse floater (the Fund) generally receiving the proceeds of such sale only after the holders of the short-term floating rate securities have received proceeds equal to the purchase price of their securities (and the liquidity provider is generally required to contribute cash to the Trust only in an amount sufficient to ensure that holders of the short-term floating rates securities receive the purchase price for their securities in connection with such termination of the Trust, in which instance the Fund may have an obligation to reimburse the liquidity provider, as described below). The sale of the underlying bond following such an event could be at an adverse price that might result in the loss by the Fund of a substantial portion, or even all, of its investment in the related inverse floater.  

</R> <R></R> <R>

The Fund may enter into shortfall/reimbursement agreements with the liquidity provider in connection with certain inverse floaters held by the Fund. These agreements commit the Fund to reimburse the liquidity provider to the extent that the liquidity provider must provide cash to a Trust, including following the termination of a Trust resulting from the occurrence of a "mandatory tender event." In connection with such an event and the termination of the Trust triggered thereby, the shortfall/reimbursement agreement will make the Fund liable for the amount of the negative difference, if any, between the liquidation value of the underlying municipal bond and the purchase price of the short-term floating rate securities issued by the Trust. The Sub-Adviser monitors the Fund's potential exposure with respect to these agreements on a daily basis and intends to take action to terminate the Fund's investment in related inverse floaters, if it deems it appropriate to do so.

</R> <R></R> <R>

Accounting Treatment of Inverse Floaters . When the Fund creates an inverse floater in a tender option bond transaction by selling an underlying municipal bond to a sponsor for deposit into a Trust, the transaction is considered a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. As a result of such accounting treatment, the Fund includes the underlying municipal bond on its Statement of Investments and as an asset on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities (but does not separately include the related inverse floater on either). The Fund also includes a liability on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities equal to the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest on the related short-term floating rate securities issued by the Trust. Interest on the underlying municipal bond is recorded as investment income on the Fund's Statement of Operations, while interest payable on the related short-term floating rate securities is recorded as interest expense (which affects the Fund's annual operating expenses, shown earlier in this prospectus). As mentioned above, the Fund may also purchase an inverse floater created as part of a tender option bond transaction when a third party, such as a municipal issuer or financial institution, transfers an underlying municipal bond to a Trust. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund includes the inverse floater related to such transaction on its Statement of Investments and interest on the security is recorded as investment income on the Fund's Statement of Operations.

</R> <R>

Floating Rate/Variable Rate Obligations. Some municipal securities have variable or floating interest rates. Variable rates are adjustable at stated periodic intervals. Floating rates are automatically adjusted according to a specified market rate for those investments, such as, for example, the percentage of LIBOR, the SIFMA Municipal Swap Index or the percentage of the prime rate of a bank. These obligations may be secured by bank letters of credit or other credit support arrangements. Inverse floaters, discussed in this prospectus, are a type of variable rate obligation.

</R> <R>

Other Investment Strategies and Risks. The Fund can also use the investment techniques and strategies described below. The Fund might not use all of these techniques or strategies or might only use them from time to time.

</R>

        To seek a higher yield, the Fund also can invest in municipal securities other than those of its state. Although any interest from those securities generally would be exempt from federal taxation, any such interest may be subject to the Fund's state personal income tax. The Fund does not expect to invest a significant portion of its assets in securities that are not exempt from its state's personal income tax.

<R></R>

When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Fund may purchase municipal securities on a "when-issued" basis and may purchase or sell such securities on a "delayed-delivery" basis. "When-issued" or "delayed-delivery" refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery. During the period between the purchase and the settlement dates, the buyer makes no payment for the security and receives no interest. When-issued or delayed-delivery securities the Fund buys are subject to changes in value as a result of market fluctuations during that period and the value of the security on the delivery date may be more or less than the Fund paid. The Fund may lose money if the value of the security has declined below the purchase price.

Percentage of LIBOR Notes (PLNs). The Fund may invest in Percentage of LIBOR Notes ("PLNs") which are variable rate municipal securities based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), a widely used benchmark for short-term interest rates and used by banks for interbank loans with other banks. A PLN typically pays interest based on a percentage of a LIBOR rate for a specified time plus an established yield premium. Due to their variable rate features, PLNs will generally pay higher levels of income in a rising short-term interest rate environment and lower levels of income as short-term interest rates decline. In times of substantial market volatility, however, PLNs may not perform as anticipated. The value of a PLN also may decline due to other factors, such as changes in credit quality of the underlying bond.

<R></R> <R> The Fund's ability to engage in transactions using PLNs may be limited due to market factors. There is no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular PLN or at any particular time, and so the Fund may not be able to close a position in a PLN when it is advantageous to do so. The Fund may also transfer a PLN to a sponsor to create an inverse floater, which may further increase the volatility of the market value of a PLN or the inverse floater.

</R> <R>

Defaulted Securities. The Fund may purchase defaulted securities if the Sub-Adviser believes that there is potential for resumption of income payments or realization of income on the sale of the securities or the collateral or other advantageous developments appear likely in the near future. Notwithstanding the Sub-Adviser's belief about the resumption of income payments or realization of income, the purchase of defaulted securities is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk, including the risk of a substantial or complete loss of the Fund's investment. Defaulted securities are subject to the Fund's limitation on holding below-investment-grade securities. The Sub-Adviser does not expect that this will be a significant investment strategy of the Fund.

</R>

Zero-Coupon Securities.  The Fund can invest without limit in zero-coupon securities.  These debt obligations do not pay interest prior to their maturity date or else they do not start to pay interest at a stated coupon rate until a future date. They are issued and traded at a discount from their face amount. The discount varies as the securities approach their maturity date (or the date interest payments are scheduled to begin). When interest rates change, zero-coupon securities are subject to greater fluctuations in their value than securities that pay current interest. The Fund accrues the discount on zero-coupon bonds as tax-free income on a current basis. The Fund may have to pay out the imputed income on zero-coupon securities without receiving actual cash payments currently.

<R>

Illiquid 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. The Sub-Adviser monitors holdings of illiquid securities on an ongoing basis to determine whether to sell any holdings.

</R>

The Fund will not invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities.

Taxable Investments. The Fund can invest up to 20% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in investments that generate income subject to income taxes. Taxable investments include, for example, hedging instruments, repurchase agreements, and many of the types of securities the Fund would buy for temporary defensive purposes. The Fund does not anticipate investing substantial amounts of its assets in taxable investments under normal market conditions or as part of its normal trading strategies and policies. 

<R>

Temporary Defensive and Interim Investments. For temporary defensive purposes in times of adverse or unstable market, economic or political conditions, the Fund can invest up to 100% of its total assets in investments that may be inconsistent with the Fund's principal investment strategies. Generally, the Fund would invest in short-term municipal securities, but could also invest in U.S. government securities or highly-rated corporate debt securities. The Fund might also hold these types of securities as interim investments pending the investment of proceeds from the sale of Fund shares or the sale of Fund portfolio securities or to meet anticipated redemptions of Fund shares. The income from some temporary defensive investments may not be tax-exempt, and therefore to the extent the Fund invests in these securities, it might not achieve its investment objective.

</R> <R>

Portfolio Turnover.  A change in the securities held by the Fund is known as "portfolio turnover." The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to try to achieve its investment objective and may have a portfolio turnover rate of over 100% annually. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage fees or other transaction costs, which can reduce performance. However, the Fund ordinarily incurs little or no brokerage expense because most of the Fund's portfolio transactions are principal trades that do not require payment of brokerage commission. If the Fund realizes capital gains when it sells investments, it generally must pay those gains to shareholders, increasing its taxable distributions. The Financial Highlights table at the end of this prospectus shows the Fund's portfolio turnover rates during past fiscal years.

</R> <R>

Conflicts of Interest. The investment activities of the Manager, the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates in regard to other accounts they manage may present conflicts of interest that could disadvantage the Fund and its shareholders. The Manager, the Sub-Adviser or their affiliates may provide investment advisory services to other funds and accounts that have investment objectives or strategies that differ from, or are contrary to, those of the Fund. That may result in another fund or account holding investment positions that are adverse to the Fund's investment strategies or activities. Other funds or accounts advised by the Manager, the Sub-Adviser or their affiliates may have conflicting interests arising from investment objectives that are similar to those of the Fund. Those funds and accounts may engage in, and compete for, the same types of securities or other investments as the Fund or invest in securities of the same issuers that have different, and possibly conflicting, characteristics. The trading and other investment activities of those other funds or accounts may be carried out without regard to the investment activities of the Fund and, as a result, the value of securities held by the Fund or the Fund's investment strategies may be adversely affected. The Fund's investment performance will usually differ from the performance of other accounts advised by the Manager, the Sub-Adviser or their affiliates and the Fund may experience losses during periods in which other accounts they advise achieve gains. The Manager and the Sub-Adviser have adopted policies and procedures designed to address potential identified conflicts of interest, however, such policies and procedures may also limit the Fund's investment activities and affect its performance.

</R> <R>

Changes to the Fund's Investment Policies. The Fund's fundamental investment policies cannot be changed without the approval of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting shares; however, the Fund's Board can change non-fundamental policies without a shareholder vote. Significant policy changes will be described in supplements to this prospectus. The Fund's investment objective is a fundamental policy. Other investment restrictions that are fundamental policies are listed in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information. An investment policy is not fundamental unless this prospectus or the Statement of Additional Information states that it is.

</R> <R>

Portfolio Holdings.  The Fund's portfolio holdings are included in its semi-annual and annual reports that are distributed to its shareholders within 60 days after the close of the applicable reporting period. The Fund also discloses its portfolio holdings in its Schedule of Investments on Form N-Q, which are public filings that are required to be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 60 days after the end of the Fund's first and third fiscal quarters. Therefore, the Fund's portfolio holdings are made publicly available no later than 60 days after the end of each of its fiscal quarters. In addition, the Fund's portfolio holdings information, as of the end of each calendar month, may be posted and available on the Fund's website no sooner than 30 days after the end of each calendar month.    

</R>

A description of the Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of its portfolio holdings is available in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

How the Fund is Managed

<R>

THE MANAGER AND THE SUB-ADVISER. OFI Global Asset Management, Inc., the Manager, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. The Manager oversees the Fund's investments and its business operations. OppenheimerFunds, Inc., the Sub-Adviser, chooses the Fund's investments and provides related advisory services. The Manager carries out its duties, subject to the policies established by the Fund's Board, under an investment advisory agreement with the Fund 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 Sub-Adviser has a sub-advisory agreement with the Manager and is paid by the Manager.

</R> <R>

The Manager has been an investment adviser since 2012. The Sub-Adviser has been an investment adviser since 1960. The Manager and the Sub-Adviser are located at Two World Financial Center, 225 Liberty Street, 11th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1008.

</R> <R>

Advisory Fees.   Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager an advisory fee at an annual rate that declines on additional asset as the Fund grows: 0.55% of the first $500 million of average annual net assets, 0.50% of the next $500 million, 0.45% of the next $500 million and 0.40% of the average annual net assets over $1.5 billion, calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. Under the sub-advisory agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser a percentage of the net investment advisory fee (after all applicable waivers) that it receives from the Fund as compensation for the provision of the investment advisory services. The Fund's advisory fee for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 was 0.55% of average annual net assets, before any applicable waivers.

</R> <R>

After discussions with the Fund's Board of Trustees, the Manager has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit "Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement" (excluding (i) interest and fees from borrowing, interest and related expenses from inverse floaters, taxes, dividends tied to short sales, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (ii) expenses incurred directly or indirectly by the Fund as a result of investments in other investment companies, wholly-owned subsidiaries and pooled investment vehicles; (iii) certain other expenses attributable to, and incurred as a result of, a Fund's investments; and (iv) other extraordinary expenses (including litigation expenses) not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business) to annual rates of 0.80% for Class A, 1.55% for Class B and Class C, and 0.80% for Class Y, as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may not be amended or withdrawn for one year from the date of this prospectus.

</R> <R>

The Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses shown in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses table earlier in this prospectus include certain interest and related expenses from the Fund's investment in inverse floaters. Under accounting rules, the Fund recognized additional income in an amount that offsets those expenses. Therefore, the Fund's total expenses and net asset values were not affected. If the interest and related expenses from the Fund's investment in inverse floaters were excluded (after applying the Manager's voluntary fee waiver/reimbursement), the expense ratios for the Fund would be 0.90% for Class A, 1.65% for Class B and Class C, and 0.81% for Class Y. The Fund's annual operating expenses may vary in future years.

</R> <R></R> <R>

A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Trustees' approval of the investment advisory arrangements for the Fund is available in the Fund's Semi-Annual Report to shareholders for the period ended September 30, 2012.

MORE ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT

About Your Account

Where Can You Buy Fund Shares? Oppenheimer funds may be purchased either directly or through a variety of "financial intermediaries" that offer Fund shares to their clients. Financial intermediaries include securities dealers, financial advisers, brokers, banks, trust companies, insurance companies and the sponsors of fund "supermarkets," fee-based advisory or wrap fee programs.

<R>

What Classes of Shares Does the Fund Offer?  The Fund offers investors three 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 usually have different share prices. When you buy shares, be sure to specify the class of shares you wish to purchase. If you do not choose a class, your investment will be made in Class A shares. Class B shares are no longer offered for new purchases.  
Class A Shares. If you buy Class A shares, you will pay an initial sales charge on investments up to $1 million for regular accounts or lesser amounts if you qualify for certain fee waivers. The amount of the sales charge will vary depending on the amount you invest. The sales charge rates for different investment amounts are listed in "About Class A Shares" below.
Class B Shares. If you purchased Class B shares, you did not pay a sales charge at the time of purchase, but you pay an annual asset-based sales charge (distribution fee) over a period of approximately six years. If you sell your shares within six years after buying them, you will normally pay a contingent deferred sales charge. The amount of the contingent deferred sales charge varies depending on how long you own your shares.   Effective after June 29, 2012, Class B shares are no longer offered for new purchases. Any investments for existing Class B share accounts will be made in Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund. See "About Class B Shares" below.
Class C Shares. If you buy Class C shares, you will pay no sales charge at the time of purchase, but you will pay an ongoing asset-based sales charge (distribution fee). If you sell your shares within 12 months after buying them, you will normally pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00%, as described in "About Class C Shares" below.
Class Y Shares. Class Y shares are offered only to certain institutional investors that have a special agreement with the Distributor and to present or former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and their eligible family members) of the Fund, the Manager and its affiliates, its parent company and the subsidiaries of its parent company, and retirement plans established for the benefit of such individuals. See "About Class Y Shares" below.

</R>

Certain sales charge waivers may apply to purchases or redemptions of Class A, Class B, or Class C shares. More information about those waivers is available in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information, or by clicking on the hyperlink "Sales Charge Waivers" under the heading "Fund Information" on the OppenheimerFunds website at "www.oppenheimerfunds.com."

What is the Minimum Investment?  In most cases, you can buy Fund shares with a minimum initial investment of $1,000 and make additional investments with as little as $50. The minimum additional investment requirement does not apply to reinvested dividends from the Fund or from other Oppenheimer funds or to omnibus account purchases. A $25 minimum applies to additional investments through an Asset Builder Plan, an Automatic Exchange Plan or a government allotment plan established before November 1, 2002. Reduced initial minimums are available in certain circumstances, including under the following investment plans: 

  • For an Asset Builder Plan or Automatic Exchange Plan or a government allotment plan, the minimum initial investment is $500.
  • For certain fee based programs that have an agreement with the Distributor, a minimum initial investment of $250 applies.
  • The minimum purchase amounts listed do not apply to omnibus accounts.

Minimum Account Balance. A $12 annual "minimum balance fee" is assessed on Fund accounts with a value of less than $500. The fee is automatically deducted from each applicable Fund account annually in September. See the Statement of Additional Information for information about the circumstances under which this fee will not be assessed. Small accounts may be involuntarily redeemed by the Fund if the value has fallen below $500 for reasons other than a decline in the market value of the shares.

<R>

Choosing a Share Class.   Once you decide that the Fund is an appropriate investment for you, deciding which class of shares is best suited to your needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with your financial advisor. The Fund's operating costs that apply to a share class and the effect of the different types of sales charges on your investment will affect your investment results over time. For example, expenses such as the distribution or service fees will reduce the net asset value and the dividends on share classes that are subject to those expenses.

</R> <R>

Two of the factors to consider are how much you plan to invest and, while future financial needs cannot be predicted with certainty, how long you plan to hold your investment. For example, with larger purchases that qualify for a reduced initial sales charge on Class A shares, the effect of paying an initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares may be less over time than the effect of the distribution fees on other share classes. If your goals and objectives change over time and you plan to purchase additional shares, you should re-evaluate each of the factors to see if you should consider a different class of shares.

</R> <R>

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. 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.

</R> <R>
  • 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, you should consider investing in Class C shares. That is because the effect of the initial sales charge on Class A shares may be greater than the effect of the ongoing asset-based sales charge on Class C shares over the short-term. The Class C contingent deferred sales charge does not apply to redemptions of shares held for more than one year.
</R> <R>
  • Investing for the Longer Term. If you have a longer-term investment horizon, Class A shares may be more appropriate. That is because the effect of the ongoing asset-based sales charge on Class C shares might be greater than the effect of the initial sales charge on Class A shares, regardless of the amount of your investment.
</R> <R>
  • Amount of Your Investment. Your choice will also depend on how much you plan to invest. If you plan to invest more than $100,000, and as your investment horizon increases, Class C shares might not be as advantageous as Class A shares. That is because the effect of the ongoing asset-based sales charge on Class C shares may be greater than the effect of the reduced front-end sales charge on Class A share purchases of $100,000 or more. 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.
</R> <R>      The Distributor normally will not accept purchase orders from a single investor for $1 million or more of Class C shares. Dealers or other financial intermediaries are responsible for determining the suitability of a particular share class for an investor. </R>

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

<R>

How Do Share Classes Affect Payments to Your Financial Intermediary? The Class B and Class C contingent deferred sales charges and asset-based sales charges have the same purpose as the front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge on Class A shares: to compensate the Distributor for concessions and expenses it pays to brokers, dealers and other financial intermediaries for selling Fund shares. Those financial intermediaries may receive different compensation for selling different classes of shares. The Sub-Adviser or Distributor may also pay dealers or other financial intermediaries additional amounts from their own resources based on the value of Fund shares held by the intermediary for its own account or held for its customers' accounts. For more information about those payments, see "Payments to Financial Intermediaries and Service Providers" below.

</R>

About Class A Shares.  Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value of the shares (described below) plus, in most cases, an initial sales charge. The Fund receives the amount of your investment, minus the sales charge, to invest for your account. In some cases, Class A purchases may qualify for a reduced sales charge or a sales charge waiver, as described below and in the Statement of Additional Information.

The Class A sales charge rate varies depending on the amount of your purchase. A portion or all of the sales charge may be retained by the Distributor or paid to your broker, dealer or other financial intermediary as a concession. The current sales charge rates and concessions paid are shown in the table below. There is no initial sales charge on Class A purchases of $1 million or more, but a contingent deferred sales charge (described below) may apply.

Reduced Class A Sales Charges.
Under a "Right of Accumulation" or a "Letter of Intent" you may be eligible to buy Class A shares of the Fund at the reduced sales charge rate that would apply to a larger purchase. Purchases of "qualified shares" of the Fund and certain other Oppenheimer funds may be added to your Class A share purchases for calculating the applicable sales charge.

</R> <R>

Class A, Class B and Class C shares of most Oppenheimer funds (including shares of the Fund), and Class A, Class B, Class C, Class G and Class H units owned in adviser sold Section 529 plans, for which an affiliate of the Manager or the Distributor serves as the "Program Manager" or "Program Distributor" are "qualified shares" for satisfying the terms of a Right of Accumulation or a Letter of Intent. Purchases made by reinvestment of dividend or capital gain distributions are "qualified shares" for satisfying the terms of a Right of Accumulation, but are not "qualified shares" for satisfying the terms of a Letter of Intent. Purchases of Class N, Class Y or Class I shares of Oppenheimer funds, purchases under the "reinvestment privilege" described below, and purchases of Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on which a sales charge has not been paid do not count as "qualified shares" for Right of Accumulation or Letter of Intent purposes. The Fund reserves the right to modify or to cease offering these programs at any time.

</R> <R>
  • Right of Accumulation.  To qualify for the reduced Class A sales charge that would apply to a larger purchase than you are currently making, you can add the value of qualified shares that you and your spouse currently own, and other qualified share purchases that you are currently making, to the value of your Class A share purchase of the Fund. The Distributor or the financial intermediary through which you are buying shares will determine the value of the qualified shares you currently own based on the greater of their current offering price or the amount you paid for the shares. For purposes of calculating that value, the Distributor will only take into consideration the value of shares owned as of December 31, 2007 and any shares purchased subsequently. The value of any shares that you have redeemed will not be counted.  In totaling your holdings, you may count shares held in: 
    • your individual accounts (including IRAs, 403(b) plans and eligible 529 plans),
    • your joint accounts with your spouse,
    • accounts you or your spouse hold as trustees or custodians on behalf of your children who are minors.
</R> <R>

A fiduciary can apply a right of accumulation to all shares purchased for a trust, estate or other fiduciary account that has multiple accounts (including employee benefit plans for the same employer and Single K plans for the benefit of a sole proprietor).

</R> <R></R> <R></R> <R></R> <R>

If you are buying shares directly from the Fund, you must inform the Distributor of your eligibility and holdings at the time of your purchase in order to qualify for the Right of Accumulation. If you are buying shares through a financial intermediary you must notify the intermediary of your eligibility for the Right of Accumulation at the time of your purchase.

</R> <R>

To count shares held in accounts at other firms, you may be requested to provide the Distributor or your current financial intermediary with a copy of account statements showing your current qualified share holdings. Shares purchased under a Letter of Intent may also qualify as eligible holdings under a Right of Accumulation.

</R> <R>
  • Letter of Intent. You may also qualify for reduced Class A sales charges by submitting a Letter of Intent to the Distributor. A Letter of Intent is a written statement of your intention to purchase a specified value of qualified shares over a 13-month period. The total amount of your intended purchases will determine the reduced sales charge rate that will apply to your Class A share purchases during that period. You must notify the Distributor or your financial intermediary of any qualifying 529 plan purchases or purchases through other financial intermediaries.
</R> <R>

Submitting a Letter of Intent does not obligate you to purchase the specified amount of shares. If you do not complete the anticipated purchases, you will be charged the difference between the sales charge that you paid and the sales charge that would apply to 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. You may also be able to apply the Right of Accumulation to purchases you make under a Letter of Intent.

</R> <R>

Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. Although there is no initial sales charge on Class A purchases of shares of one or more of the Oppenheimer funds totaling $1 million or more, those Class A shares may be subject to a 0.75% contingent deferred sales charge if they are redeemed within an 18-month "holding period" measured from the beginning of the calendar month in which they were purchased (except for shares purchased in certain retirement plans). The "holding period" for shares purchased after February 5, 2012 will begin on the date of purchase. That sales charge will be calculated on the lesser of the original net asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of purchase or the aggregate net asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption. The Class A contingent deferred sales charge does not apply to shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions.

</R> <R></R> <R>

The Distributor pays concessions from its own resources equal to 0.75% of Class A purchases of $1 million or more (other than purchases by certain retirement plans). The concession will not be paid on shares purchased by exchange or shares that were previously subject to a front-end sales charge and concession.

</R> <R>

About 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 a six year "holding period" from the beginning of the calendar month in which they were purchased, a contingent deferred sales charge will be deducted from the redemption proceeds. The "holding period" for shares purchased after February 5, 2012 will begin on the date of purchase. Class B shares are also subject to an asset-based sales charge that is calculated daily based on an annual rate of 0.75%. The Class B contingent deferred sales charge and asset-based sales charge are paid to compensate the Distributor for providing distribution-related services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class B shares.

</R> <R>

     Effective after June 29, 2012, Class B shares are no longer offered for new purchases.  Dividend and/or capital gains distributions will continue to be made in Class B shares, and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds and certain account transfers will be permitted.

</R> <R>

     Any investments for existing Class B share accounts will be made in Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund. 

</R>

The amount of the Class B contingent deferred sales charge will depend on the number of years since you invested, according to the following schedule:

 

<R>

Years Since Purchase Order was Accepted

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge on Redemptions in That Year (As % of Amount Subject to Charge)

In the table, a "year" is a 12-month period.

</R>
<R>

Automatic Conversion of Class B Shares. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares six years (72 months) after you purchase them. This conversion eliminates the Class B asset-based sales charge, however, the shares will be subject to the ongoing Class A fees and expenses. 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 to Class A shares, all other Class B shares that were acquired by reinvesting dividends and distributions on the converted shares will also convert.

</R> <R>

Effective after June 29, 2012, Class B shares are no longer offered for new purchases, however, current Class B shares will continue to mature and convert to Class A shares according to their established conversion schedule.  For further information on the conversion feature and its tax implications, see "Class B Conversion" in the Statement of Additional Information.

</R> <R>

About 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 12 month "holding period" from the beginning of the calendar month in which they were purchased, a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% may be deducted from the redemption proceeds. The "holding period" for shares purchased after February 5, 2012 will begin on the date of purchase. Class C shares are also subject to an asset-based sales charge that is calculated daily based on an annual rate of 0.75%. The Class C contingent deferred sales charge and asset-based sales charge are paid to compensate the Distributor for providing distribution-related services to the Fund in connection with the sale of Class C shares.

</R>

About 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 that purpose. They may include insurance companies, registered investment companies, employee benefit plans and Section 529 plans, among others.

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 some of the special account features available to investors buying 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.

Present and former officers, directors, trustees and employees (and their eligible family members) of the Fund, the Manager, its affiliates, its parent company and the subsidiaries of its parent company, and retirement plans established for the benefit of such individuals, are also permitted to purchase Class Y shares of the Fund.

The Price of Fund Shares.   Shares may be purchased at their offering price which is the net asset value per share plus any initial sales charge that applies. Shares are redeemed at their net asset value per share less any contingent deferred sales charge that applies. The net asset value that applies to a purchase or redemption order is the next one calculated after the Distributor receives the order, in proper form as described in this prospectus, or after any agent appointed by the Distributor receives the order in proper form as described in this prospectus. Your financial intermediary can provide you with more information regarding the time you must submit your purchase order and whether the intermediary is an authorized agent for the receipt of purchase and redemption orders.

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 (NYSE), on each day the NYSE is open for trading (referred to in this prospectus as a "regular business day"). The NYSE normally closes at 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, but may close earlier on some days. All references to time in this prospectus are to "Eastern time."

<R>

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. The Fund's assets generally trade in the over-the-counter market rather than on a securities exchange. Therefore, to determine net asset values, the Fund assets are generally valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices as determined by a pricing service. If the prices determined by the pricing service do not accurately reflect fair value for a security (in the Sub-Adviser's judgment) or if a security's value has been materially affected by events occurring after the price is received from the pricing service and before the time as of which the Fund's net asset values are calculated that day, that security may be valued by another method that the Board of Trustees believes accurately reflects the fair value.

</R> <R>

The Board has adopted valuation procedures for the Fund and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for fair value determinations to the Sub-Adviser's Valuation Committee. Fair value determinations by the Sub-Adviser are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Board at its next scheduled meeting after the fair valuations are determined. In determining whether prices received from the pricing services are reliable, the Sub-Adviser 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 prices of the securities of issuers held by the Fund. Those may include events affecting specific issuers or events affecting securities markets (for example, a securities market closes early because of a natural disaster). The Fund uses fair value pricing procedures to reflect what the Sub-Adviser and the Board believe to be more accurate values for the Fund's portfolio securities, although it may not always be able to accurately determine such values. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security at the same time at which the Fund determines its net asset value per share.

</R>

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge. If you redeem shares during their applicable contingent deferred sales charge holding period, the contingent deferred sales charge generally will be deducted from the redemption proceeds. In some circumstances you may be eligible for one of the waivers described in "Sales Charge Waivers" below and in the "Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers" Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information. You must advise the Transfer Agent or your financial intermediary of your eligibility for a waiver when you place your redemption request.

A contingent deferred sales charge will be based on the net asset value of the redeemed shares at the time of redemption or the original net asset value, whichever is lower. A contingent deferred sales charge is not imposed on:

  • any increase in net asset value over the initial purchase price,
  • shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions, or
  • shares eligible for a sales charge waiver (see "Sales Charge Waivers" below).

The Fund redeems shares in the following order:

  • shares acquired by the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions,
  • other shares that are not subject to the contingent deferred sales charge, and
  • shares held the longest during the holding period.
<R> You are not charged a contingent deferred sales charge when you exchange shares of the Fund for shares of other Oppenheimer funds. However, if you exchange your shares within the applicable holding period, your original holding period will carry over to the shares you acquire, even if the new fund has a different holding period. The contingent deferred sales charge applicable to the share class of the Fund you exchange into will apply to the acquired shares. 

</R>

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

  • Dividend Reinvestment. Dividends or capital gains distributions may be reinvested in shares of the Fund, or any of the other Oppenheimer funds into which shares of the Fund may be exchanged, without a sales charge.
  • Exchanges of Shares.  There is no sales charge on exchanges of shares except for exchanges of Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. or Oppenheimer Cash Reserves on which you have not paid a sales charge.
  • Reinvestment Privilege.  There is no sales charge on reinvesting the proceeds from redemptions of Class A shares or Class B shares that occurred within the previous six months if you paid an initial or contingent deferred sales charge on the redeemed shares. This reinvestment privilege does not apply to reinvestment purchases made through automatic investment options. You must advise the Distributor, the Transfer Agent or your financial intermediary that you qualify for the waiver at the time you submit your purchase order.
In addition, the "Special Sales Charge Arrangements and Waivers" Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information provides detailed information about certain other initial sales charge and contingent deferred sales charge waivers and arrangements. A description of those sales charge waivers and arrangements is available for viewing on the OppenheimerFunds website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com (follow the hyperlink "Sales Charges & Breakpoints," under the heading "Fund Information") and may also be ordered by calling 1.800.225.5677. You must advise the Distributor, the Transfer Agent or your financial intermediary that you qualify for one of those waivers at the time you submit your purchase order or redemption request.

How to Buy, Sell and Exchange Shares

<R>

Buying Shares.  You can buy shares in several ways. The Distributor has appointed certain financial intermediaries, including brokers, dealers and others, as servicing agents to accept purchase and redemption orders. The Distributor or servicing agent must receive your order, in proper form, by the close of the NYSE for you to receive that day's offering price. If your order is received on a day when the NYSE is closed or after it has closed, the order will receive the next offering price that is determined. To be in proper form, your purchase order must comply with the procedures described below. If you submit a purchase request without designating which Oppenheimer fund you wish to invest in, your investments will be made in Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund, Inc. This policy does not apply to purchases by or for certain retirement plans or accounts.  The Distributor, in its sole discretion, may reject any purchase order for the Fund's shares.

</R> <R>

Buying Shares Through a Financial Intermediary. You can buy shares through any servicing agent (a broker, dealer or other financial intermediary) that has a sales agreement with the Distributor. Your servicing agent will place your order with the Distributor on your behalf. A servicing agent may charge a processing fee for that service. Your account information will be shared with the financial intermediary designated as the dealer of record for the account.

</R> <R>

Buying Shares Through the Distributor. 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. If you want to purchase shares directly from the Distributor, complete an OppenheimerFunds new account application and mail it with a check payable in U.S. dollars to "OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc." at the address shown on the back cover. If you do not list a dealer on your application, the Distributor is designated as the broker-dealer of record, but solely for the purpose of acting as your agent to purchase the shares. For new investors who do not designate a broker-dealer, Class A shares (and Class Y shares for institutional investors) are the only purchase option. Other share classes may not be purchased by a new investor directly from the Distributor without the investor designating another registered broker-dealer. If a current investor no longer has a 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. For more information regarding undesignated investments, please call the Transfer Agent at the number on the back cover of this prospectus.

</R>
  • Involuntary Redemptions. In some circumstances, involuntary redemptions may be made to repay the Distributor for losses from the cancellation of share purchase orders.

Identification Requirements. 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 to open a corporate account or in certain other circumstances. The Fund or the Transfer Agent may use this information 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 verifying 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.

Suspension of Share Offering. The offering of Fund shares may be suspended during any period in which the determination of net asset value is suspended, and may be suspended by the Board at any time the Board believes it is in the Fund's best interest to do so.

Selling Shares.  You can generally redeem (sell) some or all of your shares on any regular business day. You may redeem your shares by writing a letter, by wire, by telephone or on the Internet. You can also set up an Automatic Withdrawal Plan to redeem shares on a regular basis. The redemption of Fund shares may be suspended under certain circumstances described in the Statement of Additional Information. 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 your financial intermediary or the Transfer Agent for assistance.

Redemption Price. Your shares will be redeemed at net asset value less any applicable sales charge or other fees. The net asset value used will be the next one calculated after your order is received, in proper form, by the Transfer Agent or your authorized financial intermediary. To be in proper form, your redemption order must comply with the procedures described below. The redemption price for shares will change from day-to-day because the value of the securities in the Fund's portfolio and the Fund's expenses fluctuate. The redemption price will normally differ for each class of shares. The redemption price of your shares may be more or less than their original cost.

Redemptions "In-Kind." Shares may be "redeemed in-kind" under certain circumstances (such as a lack of liquidity in the Fund's portfolio to meet redemptions). That means that the redemption proceeds will be paid in securities from the Fund's portfolio on a pro-rata basis, possibly including illiquid securities. If the Fund redeems your shares in-kind, you may bear transaction costs and will bear market risks until such securities are converted into cash.

<R>

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.


</R>

Options for Receiving Redemption Proceeds:

  • By Check. The Fund will normally send redemption proceeds by check to the address on your account statement.
  • By AccountLink. If you have linked your Fund account to your bank account with AccountLink (described below), you may have redemption proceeds transferred directly into your account. Normally the transfer to your bank is initiated on the bank business day after the redemption. You will not receive dividends on the proceeds of redeemed shares while they are waiting to be transferred.
  • By Wire. You can arrange to have redemption proceeds sent by Federal Funds wire to an account at a bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve wire system. The redemption proceeds will normally be transmitted on the next bank business day after the shares are redeemed. You will not receive dividends on the proceeds of redeemed shares while they are waiting to be transmitted.

Payment Delays. Payment for redeemed shares is usually made within seven days after the Transfer Agent receives redemption instructions in proper form. For accounts registered in the name of a broker-dealer, payment will normally be forwarded to the broker-dealer within three business days. The Transfer Agent may delay processing redemption payments for recently purchased shares until the purchase payment has cleared. That delay may be as much as five business days from the date the shares were purchased. That delay may be avoided if you purchase shares by Federal Funds wire or certified check. Under unusual circumstances, the right to redeem shares or the payment of redemption proceeds may be delayed or suspended as permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The Oppenheimer Exchange Privilege.  You can exchange all or part of your Fund shares for shares of the same class of other Oppenheimer funds that offer the exchange privilege. For example, you can exchange Class A shares of the Fund only for Class A shares of another fund. You can obtain a list of the Oppenheimer funds that are currently available for exchanges by calling a service representative at the telephone number on the back of this prospectus. The funds available for exchange can change from time to time. The Fund may amend, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege at any time. You will receive 60 days' notice of any material change in the exchange privilege unless applicable law allows otherwise.

<R>

The OppenheimerFunds exchange privilege affords investors the ability to switch their investments among Oppenheimer funds if their investment needs change. However, there are limits on that privilege. Frequent purchases, redemptions and exchanges of Fund shares may interfere with the Sub-Adviser's ability to manage the Fund's investments efficiently, increase its transaction and administrative costs and/or affect its performance, depending on various factors, such as the size of the Fund, the nature of its investments, the amount of Fund assets a portfolio manager maintains in cash or cash equivalents, the aggregate dollar amount and the number and frequency of trades.

</R> <R>

If large dollar amounts are involved in exchange or redemption transactions, the Fund might be required to sell portfolio securities at unfavorable times to meet those transaction requests, and the Fund's brokerage or administrative expenses might be increased. Therefore, the Sub-Adviser and the Fund's Board have adopted the following policies and procedures to detect and prevent frequent and/or excessive exchanges or purchase and redemption activity, while addressing the needs of investors who seek liquidity in their investment and the ability to exchange shares as their investment needs change. There is no guarantee that those policies and procedures, described below, will be sufficient to identify and deter all excessive short-term trading.

</R>

Limitations on Frequent Exchanges

30-Day Hold.   If a direct shareholder exchanges shares of another Oppenheimer fund account for shares of the Fund, his or her Fund account will be "blocked" from exchanges into any other fund for a period of 30 calendar days from the date of the exchange, subject to certain exceptions described below. Likewise, if a Fund shareholder exchanges Fund shares for shares of another eligible Oppenheimer fund, that fund account will be "blocked" from further exchanges for 30 calendar days, subject to the exception described below. The block will apply to the full account balance and not just to the amount exchanged into the account. For example, if a shareholder exchanged $2,000 from one fund into another fund in which the shareholder already owned shares worth $10,000, then, following the exchange and assuming no exception applied, the full account balance ($12,000 in this example) would be blocked from exchanges into another fund for a period of 30 calendar days. A shareholder whose account is registered on the Fund's books showing the name, address and tax ID number of the beneficial owner is a "direct shareholder."

Exceptions to 30-Day Hold

  • Exchanges Into Money Market Funds. A direct shareholder will be permitted to exchange shares of a stock or bond fund for shares of an eligible money market fund any time, even if the shareholder has exchanged shares into the stock or bond fund during the prior 30 days. Exchanges from that money market fund into another fund will be monitored for excessive activity and the Transfer Agent may limit or refuse any exchange order from a money market fund in its discretion pursuant to the exchange policy of that fund.
<R>
  • Dividend Reinvestments and Share Conversions. The reinvestment of dividends or distributions from one fund to purchase shares of another fund and the conversion of shares from one share class to another class within the same fund will not be considered exchanges for purposes of imposing the 30-day limit.
</R>
  • Asset Allocation Programs. Investment programs by Oppenheimer "funds of funds" that entail rebalancing investments in underlying Oppenheimer funds will not be subject to these limits. However, third-party asset allocation and rebalancing programs will be subject to the 30-day limit described above. Asset allocation firms that want to exchange shares held in accounts on behalf of their customers must identify themselves to the Transfer Agent and execute an acknowledgement and agreement to abide by these policies with respect to their customers' accounts. "On-demand" exchanges outside the parameters of portfolio rebalancing programs will also be subject to the 30-day limit.
  • Automatic Exchange Plans. Accounts that receive exchange proceeds through automatic or systematic exchange plans that are established through the Transfer Agent will not be subject to the 30-day block as a result of those automatic or systematic exchanges but may be blocked from exchanges, under the 30-day limit, if they receive proceeds from other exchanges.
  • Redemptions of Shares. These exchange policy limits do not apply to redemptions of shares. Shareholders are permitted to redeem their shares on any regular business day, subject to the terms of this prospectus.

Limitations on Exchanges in Omnibus Accounts. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial advisor or other firm such as a broker-dealer, a bank, an insurance company separate account, an investment adviser, an administrator or a trustee of a retirement plan that holds your shares in an account under its name (these are sometimes referred to as "omnibus" or "street name" accounts), that financial intermediary may impose its own restrictions or limitations to discourage short-term or excessive trading. You should consult your financial intermediary to find out what trading restrictions, including limitations on exchanges, may apply. The Fund, the Distributor, the Manager and the Transfer Agent encourage those financial intermediaries to apply the Fund's policies to their customers who invest indirectly in the Fund. However, the Transfer Agent may not be able to detect excessive short-term trading activity in accounts maintained in "omnibus" or "street name" form where the underlying beneficial owners are not identified. The Transfer Agent will attempt to monitor overall purchase and redemption activity in those accounts to seek to identify patterns that may suggest excessive trading by the underlying owners. If evidence of possible excessive trading activity is observed by the Transfer Agent, the financial intermediary that is the registered owner will be asked to review the account activity, and to confirm to the Transfer Agent and the Fund that appropriate action has been taken to curtail any excessive trading activity.

Other Limitations on Exchanges. There are a number of other special conditions and limitations that apply to certain types of exchanges. Those conditions and circumstances are described in the section "How to Exchange Shares" in the Statement of Additional Information. For information about sales charges that may apply to exchanges of shares see the sections "Contingent Deferred Sales Charge" and "Sales Charge Waivers" in this prospectus.

Requirements for Exchanges of Shares. To exchange shares of the Fund, you must meet several conditions. The Fund may amend the following requirements at any time:

  • Shares of the fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.
  • The selected fund must offer the exchange privilege.
  • You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the selected fund.
  • Generally, exchanges may be made only between identically registered accounts, unless all account owners send written exchange instructions with a signature guarantee.
  • Before exchanging into a fund, you should obtain its prospectus and should read it carefully.

Timing of Exchange Transactions. Exchanged shares are normally redeemed from one fund and the proceeds are reinvested in the fund selected for exchange 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" or "street name" account) receives an exchange request that conforms to these policies. The request must be received by the close of the NYSE that day in order to receive that day's net asset value on the exchanged shares. For requests received after the close of the NYSE the shares being exchanged will be valued at the next net asset value calculated after the request is received. The Transfer Agent may delay transmitting the proceeds from an exchange for up to five business days, however, if it determines, in its discretion, that an earlier transmittal of the redemption proceeds would be detrimental to either the fund from which shares are being exchanged or the fund into which the exchange is being made. The exchange proceeds will be invested in the new fund at the next net asset value calculated after the proceeds are received. In the event that a delay in the reinvestment of proceeds occurs, the Transfer Agent will notify you or your financial intermediary.

Taxes on Exchanges. For tax purposes, an exchange of shares of the Fund is considered a sale of those shares and a purchase of the shares of the fund into which you are exchanging. Therefore, an exchange may result in a capital gain or loss for tax purposes.

Other Limits on Share Transactions.  The Fund may impose other limits on transactions that it believes would be disruptive and may refuse any purchase or exchange order.

  • Right to Refuse Purchase and Exchange Orders. The Distributor and/or the Transfer Agent may refuse any purchase or exchange order in their discretion and are not obligated to provide notice before rejecting an order.
  • Right to Terminate or Suspend Account Privileges. The Transfer Agent may, in its discretion, limit or terminate trading activity by any person, group or account that it believes would be disruptive, even if the activity has not exceeded the policies outlined in this prospectus. As part of the Transfer Agent's procedures to detect and deter excessive trading activity, the Transfer Agent may review and consider the history of frequent trading activity in all accounts in the Oppenheimer funds known to be under common ownership or control. The Transfer Agent may send a written warning to a shareholder that the Transfer Agent believes may be engaging in disruptive or excessive trading activity; however, the Transfer Agent reserves the right to suspend or terminate the ability to purchase or exchange shares, with or without warning, for any account that the Transfer Agent determines, in the exercise of its discretion, has engaged in such trading activity.
<R>

Submitting Share Transaction Requests. Share transactions may be requested by telephone or internet, in writing, through your financial intermediary, or by establishing one of the Investor Services plans described below. Certain transactions may also be submitted by fax. If an account has more than one owner, the Fund and the Transfer Agent may rely on instructions from any one owner or from the financial intermediary's representative of record for the account, unless that authority has been revoked.  Class Y share transactions may only be submitted in writing, by fax, by phone through a service representative, or through an investor's designated financial intermediary.

</R>

Internet and Telephone Transaction Requests. Purchase, redemption and exchange requests may be submitted on the OppenheimerFunds website, www.oppenheimerfunds.com. Those requests may also be made by calling the telephone number on the back cover and either speaking to a service representative or accessing PhoneLink, the OppenheimerFunds automated telephone system that enables shareholders to perform certain account transactions automatically using a touch-tone phone.

You will need to obtain a user I.D. and password to execute transactions through PhoneLink or on the internet. Some internet and telephone transactions require the Oppenheimer AccountLink feature, described below, that links your Fund account with an account at a U.S. bank or other financial institution. The Transfer Agent will record any telephone calls to verify data concerning transactions.

The following policies apply to internet and telephone transactions:

  • Purchases through AccountLink that are submitted through PhoneLink or on the internet are limited to $100,000.
  • Purchases through AccountLink that are submitted by calling a service representative are limited to $250,000.
  • Redemptions that are submitted by telephone or on the internet and request the proceeds to be paid by check, must be made payable to all owners of record of the shares and must be sent to the address on the account statement. Telephone or internet redemptions paid by check may not exceed $100,000 in any seven-day period. This service is not available within 15 days of changing the address on an account.
  • Redemptions by telephone or on the internet that are sent to your bank account through AccountLink are not subject to any dollar limits.
  • Exchanges submitted by telephone or on the internet may be made only between accounts that are registered with the same name(s) and address.
  • Shares for which share certificates have been issued may not be redeemed or exchanged by telephone or on the internet.
  • Shares held in an OppenheimerFunds-sponsored qualified retirement plan account may not be redeemed or exchanged by telephone or on the internet.
<R>

The Transfer Agent has adopted procedures to confirm that telephone and internet instructions are genuine. Callers are required to provide service representatives with tax identification numbers and other account data and PhoneLink and internet users are required to use PIN numbers. The Transfer Agent will also send you written confirmations of share transactions. The Transfer Agent and the Fund will not be liable for losses or expenses that occur from telephone or internet instructions reasonably believed to be genuine.

</R>

Telephone or internet transaction privileges may be modified, suspended or terminated by the Fund at any time. The Fund will provide you notice of such changes whenever it is required to do so by applicable law. 

Purchases and Redemptions by Federal Funds Wire.   Shares purchased through the Distributor may be paid for by Federal Funds wire. Redemption proceeds may also be transmitted by wire. The minimum wire purchase or redemption is $2,500. There is a $10 fee for each wire redemption request. Before sending a wire purchase, call the Distributor's Wire Department at 1.800.225.5677 to notify the Distributor of the wire and to receive further instructions. To set up wire redemptions on your account or to arrange for a wire redemption, call the Transfer Agent at the telephone number on the back of this prospectus for information.

Written Transaction Requests. You can send purchase, exchange or redemption requests to the Transfer Agent at the address on the back cover. Your request must include:

  • The Fund's name;
  • For existing accounts, the Fund account number (from your account statement);
  • For new accounts, a completed account application; 
  • For purchases, a check payable to the Fund or to OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc.;
  • For redemptions, any special payment instructions;
  • For redemptions or exchanges, the dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed or exchanged;
  • For redemptions or exchanges, any share certificates that have been issued (exchanges or redemptions of shares for which certificates have been issued cannot be processed until the Transfer Agent receives the certificates);
  • For individuals, the names and signatures of all registered owners exactly as they appear in the account registration;
  • For corporations, partnerships or other businesses or as a fiduciary, the name of the entity as it appears in the account registration and the names and titles of any individuals signing on its behalf; and
  • Other documents requested by the Transfer Agent to assure that the person purchasing, redeeming or exchanging shares is properly identified and has proper authorization to carry out the transaction.
<R>

Certain Requests Require a Signature Guarantee. To protect you and the Fund from fraud, certain redemption requests must be in writing and must include a signature guarantee. A notary public seal will not be accepted for these requests (other situations might also require a signature guarantee):

</R>
  • You wish to redeem more than $100,000 and receive a check;
  • The redemption check is not payable to all shareholders listed on the account statement;
  • The redemption check is not sent to the address of record on your account statement;
  • Shares are being transferred to a Fund account with a different owner or name; or 
  • 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 signature guarantee from a number of financial institutions, including:

  • a U.S. bank, trust company, credit union or savings association,
  • a foreign bank that has a U.S. correspondent bank,
  • a U.S. registered dealer or broker in securities, municipal securities or government securities, or
  • a U.S. national securities exchange, a registered securities association or a clearing agency.

Fax Requests. You may send requests for certain types of account transactions to the Transfer Agent by fax. Please call the number on the back of this prospectus for information about which transactions may be handled this way. Transaction requests submitted by fax are subject to the same rules and restrictions as the written, telephone and internet requests described in this prospectus.  However, requests that require a signature guarantee may not be submitted by fax. 

Submitting Transaction Requests Through Your Financial Intermediary. You can submit purchase, redemption or exchange requests through any broker, dealer or other financial intermediary that has a special agreement with the Distributor. The broker, dealer or other intermediary will place the order with the Distributor on your behalf. A broker or dealer may charge a processing fee for that service. If your shares are held in the name of your financial intermediary, you must redeem them through that intermediary.

Intermediaries 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 intermediary performs any transaction erroneously or improperly.

Client Account Exchanges by Financial Intermediaries. The Fund and the Transfer Agent permit brokers, dealers and other financial intermediaries to submit exchange requests on behalf of their customers, unless that authority has been revoked. The Fund or the Transfer Agent may limit or refuse exchange requests submitted by such financial intermediaries if, in the Transfer Agent's judgment, exercised in its discretion, the exchanges would be disruptive to any of the funds involved in the transaction.

Investment Plans and Services

</R> <R>

AccountLink. You can use our AccountLink feature to link your Fund account with an account at a U.S. bank or other financial institution that is an Automated Clearing House (ACH) member. AccountLink lets you:

</R>
  • transmit funds electronically to purchase shares by internet, by telephone or automatically through an Asset Builder Plan. The purchase payment will be debited from your bank account. 
  • have the Transfer Agent send redemption proceeds or  dividends and distributions directly to your bank account. 

     AccountLink privileges should be requested on your account application or on your broker-dealer's settlement instructions if you buy your shares through a broker-dealer. For an established account, you can request AccountLink privileges by sending signature-guaranteed instructions and proper documentation to the Transfer Agent. AccountLink privileges will apply to each shareholder listed in the registration on the account as well as to the financial intermediary's representative of record unless and until the Transfer Agent terminates or receives written instructions terminating or changing those privileges. After you establish AccountLink for your account, any change you make to your bank account information must be made by signature-guaranteed instructions to the Transfer Agent signed by all shareholders on the account. Please call the Transfer Agent for more information.

<R>

Asset Builder Plans. Under an Asset Builder Plan, you may purchase shares of the Fund automatically. An Asset Builder Plan is available only if you have established AccountLink with a bank or other financial institution. Payments to purchase Fund shares will be debited from your linked account.

</R> <R>

To establish an Asset Builder Plan at the time you initially purchase Fund shares, complete the "Asset Builder Plan" information on the account application. To add an Asset Builder Plan to an existing account, use the Asset Builder Enrollment Form. You may change the amount of your Asset Builder payment or you can terminate your automatic investments at any time by writing to the Transfer Agent.

</R> <R>

Effective after June 29, 2012, Class B shares are no longer offered for new purchases. Any Class B share purchases for existing accounts will be made in Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund.  

</R> <R>

The Transfer Agent may require a reasonable period after receipt of your instructions to implement any requested changes . For more details, see the account application, the Asset Builder Enrollment Form and the Statement of Additional Information. Those documents are available by contacting the Distributor or may be downloaded from our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com. The Fund reserves the right to amend, suspend or discontinue offering Asset Builder Plans at any time without prior notice.

</R>

Automatic Redemption and Exchange Plans. The Fund has several plans that enable you to redeem shares automatically or exchange them for shares of another Oppenheimer fund on a regular basis. Please call the Transfer Agent or consult the Statement of Additional Information for details.

Less Paper, Less Waste. To avoid sending duplicate copies of Fund 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 lower printing costs and reduced mailing expense.

If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, you may call the Transfer Agent at the number on the back of this prospectus or you may notify the Transfer Agent in writing. Multiple 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.

You may also choose to receive your account documents electronically via eDocs Direct. Visit our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com and click the hyperlink "Sign Up for Electronic Document Delivery" under the heading "I want to..." in the left hand column, or call 1.888.470.0862 for information and instructions.

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12b-1) PLANS


<R>

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares that reimburses the Distributor for a portion of the costs of maintaining accounts and providing services to Class A shareholders. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the Class A shares daily net assets. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay brokers, dealers, banks and other financial intermediaries for providing personal service and maintaining the accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Because the service fee is paid out of the Fund's assets on an ongoing basis, over time it will increase the cost of your investment.

</R> <R>

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and Class C Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and Class C shares to pay the Distributor for distributing those share classes, maintaining accounts and providing shareholder services. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an asset-based sales charge for Class B and Class C shares calculated at an annual rate of 0.75% of the daily net assets of those classes. The Fund also pays a service fee under the plans at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class B and Class C. Altogether, these fees increase the Class B and Class C annual expenses by 1.00%, calculated on the daily net assets of the applicable class. Because these fees are paid out of the Fund's assets on an on going basis, over time they will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than other types of sales charges.

</R>

     Use of Plan Fees: The Distributor uses the service fees to compensate brokers, dealers, banks and other financial intermediaries for maintaining accounts and providing personal services to Class B and Class C shareholders in the applicable share class. The Distributor normally pays intermediaries the 0.25% service fee in advance for the first year after shares are purchased and then pays that fee periodically.

<R>

     Class B Shares: 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 shares asset-based sales charge. However, for ongoing purchases of Class B shares by OppenheimerFunds Single K plans, the Distributor may pay the intermediary the asset-based sales charge and service fee during the first year after purchase instead of paying a sales concession and the first year's service fees at the time of purchase. See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions.

</R> <R>

Effective after June 29, 2012, Class B shares are no longer offered for new purchases. Any investments for existing Class B share accounts will be made in Class A shares of Oppenheimer Money Market Fund. No sales concessions will be paid on those purchases, however a concession may be paid if the acquired Oppenheimer Money Market Fund shares are exchanged for shares of another Oppenheimer fund.

</R>

     Class C Shares: At the time of a Class C share purchase, the Distributor generally pays financial intermediaries a sales concession of 0.75% of the purchase price from its own resources. Therefore, the total amount, including the advance of the service fee, that the Distributor pays the intermediary at the time of a Class C share purchase is 1.00% of the purchase price. The Distributor normally retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C share purchases during the first year and then pays that fee to the intermediary as an ongoing concession. See the Statement of Additional Information for exceptions to these arrangements.

<R>

Payments to Financial Intermediaries and Service Providers. The Sub-Adviser and the Distributor, in their discretion, may also make payments to brokers, dealers and other financial intermediaries or to service providers for distribution and/or shareholder servicing activities. Those payments are made out of the Sub-Adviser's and/or the Distributor's own resources and/or assets, including from the revenues or profits derived from the advisory fees the Sub-Adviser receives from the Fund. Those cash payments, which may be substantial, are paid to many firms having business relationships with the Sub-Adviser and Distributor and are in addition to any distribution fees, servicing fees, or transfer agency fees paid directly or indirectly by the Fund to these financial intermediaries and any commissions the Distributor pays to these firms out of the sales charges paid by investors. Payments by the Sub-Adviser or Distributor from their own resources are not reflected in the tables in the "Fees and Expenses of the Fund" section of this prospectus because they are not paid by the Fund.

</R> <R>

The financial intermediaries that may receive those payments include firms that offer and sell Fund shares to their clients, or provide shareholder services to the Fund, or both, and receive compensation for those activities. The financial intermediaries that may receive payments include your securities broker, dealer or financial advisor, sponsors of fund "supermarkets," sponsors of fee-based advisory or wrap fee programs, sponsors of college and retirement savings programs, banks, trust companies and other intermediaries offering products that hold Fund shares, and insurance companies that offer variable annuity or variable life insurance products.

In general, these payments to financial intermediaries can be categorized as "distribution-related" or "servicing" payments. Payments for distribution-related expenses, such as marketing or promotional expenses, are often referred to as "revenue sharing." Revenue sharing payments may be made on the basis of the sales of shares attributable to that intermediary, the average net assets of the Fund and other Oppenheimer funds attributable to the accounts of that intermediary and its clients, negotiated lump sum payments for distribution services provided, or similar fees. In some circumstances, revenue sharing payments may create an incentive for a financial intermediary or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds to its customers. These payments also may give an intermediary an incentive to cooperate with the Distributor's marketing efforts. A revenue sharing payment may, for example, qualify the Fund for preferred status with the intermediary receiving the payment or provide representatives of the Distributor with access to representatives of the intermediary's sales force, in some cases on a preferential basis over funds of competitors. Additionally, as firm support, the Sub-Adviser or Distributor may reimburse expenses related to educational seminars and "due diligence" or training meetings (to the extent permitted by applicable laws or the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA")) designed to increase sales representatives' awareness about Oppenheimer funds, including travel and lodging expenditures. However, the Sub-Adviser does not consider a financial intermediary's sale of shares of the Fund or other Oppenheimer funds when selecting brokers or dealers to effect portfolio transactions for the funds.

Various factors are used to determine whether to make revenue sharing payments. Possible considerations include, without limitation, the types of services provided by the intermediary, sales of Fund shares, the redemption rates on accounts of clients of the intermediary or overall asset levels of Oppenheimer funds held for or by clients of the intermediary, the willingness of the intermediary to allow the Distributor to provide educational and training support for the intermediary's sales personnel relating to the Oppenheimer funds, the availability of the Oppenheimer funds on the intermediary's sales system, as well as the overall quality of the services provided by the intermediary and the Sub-Adviser or Distributor's relationship with the intermediary. The Sub-Adviser and Distributor have adopted guidelines for assessing and implementing each prospective revenue sharing arrangement. To the extent that financial intermediaries receiving distribution-related payments from the Sub-Adviser or Distributor sell more shares of the Oppenheimer funds or retain more shares of the funds in their client accounts, the Sub-Adviser and Distributor benefit from the incremental management and other fees they receive with respect to those assets.

Payments may also be made by the Sub-Adviser, the Distributor or the Transfer Agent to financial intermediaries to compensate or reimburse them for administrative or other client services provided, such as sub-transfer agency services for shareholders or retirement plan participants, omnibus accounting or sub-accounting, participation in networking arrangements, account set-up, recordkeeping and other shareholder services. Payments may also be made for administrative services related to the distribution of Fund shares through the intermediary. Firms that may receive servicing fees include retirement plan administrators, qualified tuition program sponsors, banks and trust companies, and insurance companies that offer variable annuity or variable life insurance products, and others. These fees may be used by the service provider to offset or reduce fees that would otherwise be paid directly to them by certain account holders, such as retirement plans.

The Statement of Additional Information contains more information about revenue sharing and service payments made by the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor. Your broker, dealer or other financial intermediary may charge you fees or commissions in addition to those disclosed in this prospectus. You should ask your financial intermediary for details about any such payments it receives from the Sub-Adviser or the Distributor and their affiliates, or any other fees or expenses it charges.

</R>

Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes

<R></R> <R>

Dividends. The Fund intends to declare dividends separately for each class of shares from net tax-exempt income and/or net taxable investment income each regular business day and to pay those dividends monthly. Daily dividends will not be declared or paid on newly-purchased shares until Federal Funds are available to the Fund from the purchase payment for such shares.

</R>

The Fund attempts to pay dividends on Class A shares at a constant level. There is no assurance that it will be able to do so. The Board of Trustees may change the targeted dividend level at any time, without prior notice to shareholders. The amount of those dividends and any other distributions paid on other classes of shares may vary over time, depending on market conditions, the composition of the Fund's portfolio, and expenses borne by the particular class of shares. Dividends and other distributions paid on Class A and Class Y shares will generally be higher than dividends for Class B and Class C shares, which normally have higher expenses than Class A or Class Y. The Fund cannot guarantee that it will pay any dividends or other distributions.

<R></R> <R>

Capital Gains. Although the Fund does not seek capital gains, it may realize capital gains on the sale of portfolio securities. If it does, it may make distributions out of any short-term or long-term capital gains annually. The Fund may also make supplemental distributions of ordinary income and exempt-interest 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. Long-term capital gains will be separately identified in the tax information the Fund sends you after the end of the calendar year.

</R>

Options for Receiving Dividends and Distributions. When you open your Fund account, you can specify on your application how you want to receive distributions of dividends and capital gains. To change that option, you must notify the Transfer Agent. There are four payment options available:

  • Reinvest All Distributions in the Fund. You can elect to reinvest all dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the Fund.
  • Reinvest Only Dividends or Capital Gains. You can elect to reinvest some types of distributions in the Fund while receiving the other types of distributions by check or having them sent to your bank account through AccountLink. Different treatment is available for distributions of dividends, short-term capital gains and long-term capital gains.
  • Receive All Distributions in Cash. You can elect to receive all dividends and capital gains distributions by check or have them sent to your bank through AccountLink.
  • Reinvest Your Distributions in Another Oppenheimer Fund. You can reinvest all of your dividends and capital gains distributions in another Oppenheimer fund that is available for exchanges. You must have an existing account in the same share class in the selected fund.
<R></R> <R>

Taxes. Dividends paid from net investment income earned by the Fund on tax-exempt municipal securities will be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. All or a portion of the dividends paid by the Fund that are derived from interest paid on certain "private activity bonds" may be an item of tax preference if you are subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. The portion of the Fund's exempt-interest dividends that was a tax preference item for the most recent calendar year is available on the OppenheimerFunds website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com/redir/tax_table_amt.jsp. The tax preference amount will vary from year to year.

</R>

Dividends and capital gains distributions may be subject to federal, state or local taxes. Any short-term capital gain distributions are taxable to you as ordinary income. Any long-term capital gain distributions are taxable to you as long-term capital gains, no matter how long you have owned shares in the Fund. The Fund may derive gains in part from municipal obligations the Fund purchased below their principal or face values. All, or a portion of these gains may be taxable to you as ordinary income rather than capital gains. Whether you reinvest your distributions in additional shares or take them in cash, the tax treatment is the same.

After the end of each calendar year the Fund will send you and the Internal Revenue Service statements showing the amount of any taxable distributions you received in the previous year and will separately identify any portion of these distributions that qualify for taxation as long-term capital gains or for any other special tax treatment.

<R>

If you are neither a resident nor a citizen of the United States, or if you are a foreign entity, the Fund's ordinary income dividends (which include distributions of net short-term capital gains) generally will be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax, unless a lower rate applies under an income tax treaty. For taxable years of the Fund beginning before 2014, certain distributions that may be reported by the Fund as arising from Qualified Interest Income and Qualified Short-term Capital Gains (if applicable) and paid to a foreign shareholder may be eligible for an exemption from U.S. withholding tax. To the extent the Fund's distributions are derived from ordinary dividends, they will not be eligible for this exemption. In addition, under legislation known as "FATCA" (the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act), the Fund will be required to withhold 30% of the ordinary dividends it pays after July 1, 2014, and the gross proceeds of share redemptions and certain capital gains it pays after December 31, 2016, to shareholders that fail to meet prescribed information reporting or certification requirements.

</R>

     Qualification as a Regulated Investment Company. The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code, by satisfying certain income, asset diversification and income distribution requirements, but it reserves the right not to qualify. The Fund qualified during its most recent 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.

      Other Taxability Risk Considerations. It is possible that, because of events occurring after the date of its issuance, a municipal security owned by the Fund will be determined to pay interest that is includable in gross income for purposes of the federal income tax, and that determination could be retroactive to the date of issuance. Such a determination may cause a portion of prior distributions to shareholders to be taxable to shareholders in the year of receipt.

Legislation affecting tax-exempt municipal securities is often considered by the United States Congress and legislation affecting the exemption of interest or other income thereon for purposes of taxation by a state may be considered by the state's legislature. Court proceedings may also be filed, the outcome of which could modify the tax treatment of a state's municipal securities. There can be no assurance that legislation enacted or proposed, or actions by a court, after the date of issuance of a municipal security will not have an adverse effect on the tax status of interest or other income or the market value of that municipal security. Please consult your tax adviser regarding pending or proposed federal and state tax legislation, court proceedings and other tax considerations.

<R>

Arizona Tax Considerations.  Under current law, interest on obligations of the State of Arizona, its political subdivisions and instrumentalities is exempt from Arizona personal income tax if such obligations are issued pursuant to a provision of Arizona law that contains an express exemption from such tax or the interest on such obligations is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Income derived from direct obligations of the U.S. government or its authorities, commissions, instrumentalities or territories (including Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands) is exempt from Arizona personal income tax. The Arizona Department of Revenue has ruled that dividends paid by a regulated investment company, such as the Fund, are exempt from Arizona state income tax to the extent such dividends are derived by the Fund from interest on such exempt obligations. For purposes of Arizona income taxation, distributions from the Fund that are derived from interest on other types of obligations (i.e., obligations the interest on which is not exempt from Arizona state income tax) will be taxable as ordinary income, whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares. Obligations the interest on which is not exempt from Arizona state income tax include indirect U.S. Government obligations (e.g., Ginnie Maes and Fannie Maes) and obligations of other states and their political subdivisions. Distributions of net capital gains (both short- and long-term net capital gains) are not exempt from Arizona income taxation and are taxed at ordinary income tax rates. Interest on indebtedness incurred or continued by a shareholder in connection with the purchase of shares of a fund will not be deductible for Arizona personal income tax purposes.

</R> <R>

Backup Withholding. Unless an exception applies, the Fund may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax on distributions and redemption proceeds payable to you if you fail to provide the Fund with your correct social security number or taxpayer identification number or fail to make required certifications, or if you have been notified by the IRS that you are subject to backup withholding. Any amounts withheld may be credited against U.S. federal income tax liability.

</R> <R>

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.

</R> <R>

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 receive when you sell or exchange them. Any capital gain is subject to capital gains tax.

</R> <R>

Returns of Capital Can Occur. In certain cases, distributions made by the Fund may be considered a return of capital to shareholders, which is generally non-taxable, resulting in a reduction in the basis in their shares. If this occurs, the Fund will notify you.

</R> <R>

Cost Basis Reporting. The Fund is required to report to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), and furnish to Fund shareholders, detailed "cost basis" and "holding period" information for Fund shares acquired on or after January 1, 2012 ("covered shares") that are redeemed on or after that date. These requirements do not apply to investments through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement plan. If you redeem covered shares during any year, the Fund will report the following information to the IRS and to you on Form 1099-B: (i) the "cost basis" of such shares, (ii) the gross proceeds you received on the redemption and (iii) the "holding period" for the redeemed shares.

</R> <R>

The default method for calculating the cost basis of covered shares is based on the average cost of all Fund shares you purchased on or after January 1, 2012 and prior to a particular redemption. If you and your financial or tax adviser determine another calculation method may be more beneficial for your individual tax situation, you may be able to elect another IRS-accepted method via the OppenheimerFunds website, www.oppenheimerfunds.com, or by notifying the Fund's Transfer Agent in writing.

</R> <R>

You should contact your financial or tax advisor about the application of the cost basis reporting rules to you, particularly whether you should elect a cost basis calculation method or use the default average basis.

</R> <R> This information is only a summary of certain income tax information about your investment . You are encouraged to consult your tax adviser about the effect of an investment in the Fund on your particular tax situation and about any changes to the Internal Revenue Code that may occur from time to time. Additional information about the tax effects of investing in the Fund is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.

Financial Highlights

<R>

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. KPMG's report, along with the Fund's financial statements, are included in the annual report, which is available upon request.
