NOTES

An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

The Fund’s investment strategy, allocations, and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc.

Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds, investors should carefully consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Fund prospectuses and summary prospectuses contain this and other information about the funds, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor, visiting oppenheimerfunds.com, or calling 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Read prospectuses and summary prospectuses carefully before investing.

FUND EXPENSES

Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended July 31, 2012.

Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), or a $12.00 fee imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). Therefore, the “hypothetical” section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Class N		1,000.00		1,023.27		1.61

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios based on the 6-month period ended July 31, 2012 are as follows:


Class	Expense Ratios
Class A		0.32	%
Class B		0.32
Class C		0.32
Class N		0.32

The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager and Distributor. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Oppenheimer Cash Reserves (the “Fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek the maximum current income that is consistent with stability of principal. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).

The Fund offers Class A, Class C and Class N shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares will be permitted, however reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds will be allowed. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N shares have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.

Previous Annual Periods. The last day of certain of the Fund’s prior fiscal years was the last day the New York Stock Exchange was open for trading. The Fund’s financial statements have been presented through that date to maintain consistency with the Fund’s net asset value calculations used for shareholder transactions.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued

The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years for federal income tax purposes.


Net Investment Income	Undistributed Long-Term Gains		Accumulated Loss Carryforward
$58,886	$	—	$	—

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.

Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for July 31, 2012. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.


Reduction to Accumulated Net Investment Loss	Reduction to Accumulated Net Realized Gain on Investments
$3,843	$	3,843

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended July 31, 2012 and July 31, 2011 was as follows:


	Year Ended July 31, 2012		Year Ended July 31, 2011
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income	$	115,602	$	111,775

Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may


24				OPPENHEIMER CASH RESERVES

differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually but may be paid at other times to maintain the net asset value per share at $1.00.

Investment Income. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.

Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the 1 Month LIBOR Rate plus 2.00%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.

Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Securities Valuation

The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.

The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a “fair valuation” for any security for which market quotations are not “readily available.” The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are


25				OPPENHEIMER CASH RESERVES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued

2. Securities Valuation Continued

subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined.

Valuation Methods and Inputs

Securities are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate market value, the fair value of the portfolio securities will be determined under procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors.

If a market value or price cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the “good faith” opinion of the Manager, the market value or price obtained does not constitute a “readily available market quotation,” or a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security the security is fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. Those fair valuation standardized methodologies include, but are not limited to, valuing securities at the last sale price or initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be further adjusted for any discounts related to security-specific resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities nor can it be assured that the Fund can obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security.

To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager, or its third party service provider who is subject to oversight by the Manager, regularly compares prior day prices, prices on comparable securities, and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.


26				OPPENHEIMER CASH RESERVES

Classifications

Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)

Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).

The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.

The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of July 31, 2012 based on valuation input level:

Currency contracts and forwards, if any, are reported at their unrealized appreciation/depreciation at measurement date, which represents the change in the contract’s value from trade date. Futures, if any, are reported at their variation margin at measurement date, which represents the amount due to/from the Fund at that date. All additional assets and liabilities included in the above table are reported at their market value at measurement date.

There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.

Fee Schedule
Up to $250 million	0.500	%
Next $250 million	0.475
Next $250 million	0.450
Next $250 million	0.425
Over $1 billion	0.400

Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.


28				OPPENHEIMER CASH RESERVES

Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS a per account fee. For the year ended July 31, 2012, the Fund paid $2,798,613 to OFS for services to the Fund.

Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor’s Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the Fund’s classes of shares.

Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the “Plan”) for Class A shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.20% of the average annual net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal services and maintenance of 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. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”) for Class B, Class C and Class N shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B shares and Class C shares and 0.25% on Class N shares. The Distributor is entitled to receive a service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan, but the Board of Trustees has not authorized the Fund to pay the service fees on Class B and Class C shares at this time. Beginning July 1, 2009, the Distributor has voluntarily decreased the rates for the asset-based sales charges for Class B, Class C and Class N shares and service fees for Class N shares to 0.00%. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date of such termination. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations. The Distributor determines its uncompensated expenses under the Plans at calendar quarter ends. The Distributor’s aggregate uncompensated expenses under the Plans at June 30, 2012 were as follows:


Class C	$	3,597,764
Class N		13,835,835

Sales Charges. Contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) do not represent an expense of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of redemptions of Fund shares prior to remittance. The CDSC retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares is shown in the table below for the period indicated.


Year Ended	Class A Contingent Deferred Sales Charges Retained by Distributor		Class B Contingent Deferred Sales Charges Retained by Distributor		Class C Contingent Deferred Sales Charges Retained by Distributor		Class N Contingent Deferred Sales Charges Retained by Distributor
July 31, 2012	$	881	$	2,726	$	22,122	$	10,506

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s management fee to an annual rate of 0.40% of the daily net assets for each class of shares. As a result of this limitation, the Manager waived $625,719 for the year ended July 31, 2012.

The Manager has agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to assist the Fund in attempting to maintain a positive yield. As a result, for the year ended July 31, 2012, the Manager waived or reimbursed the Fund $2,022,507, $347,505, $1,246,198 and $956,125 for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N, respectively. There is no guarantee that the Fund will maintain a positive yield.

Effective July 1, 2009, the Distributor voluntarily agreed to set the fee rate it is entitled to receive under the Distribution and/or Service Plans for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares at 0.00%. For the year ended July 31, 2012, the Distributor waived receipt of Distribution and/or Service Plan fees from Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares in the amount of $1,049,026, $544,585, $2,329,853 and $1,171,708, respectively.

OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees for all classes to 0.35% of average annual net assets per class.

Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time; some may not be modified or terminated until after one year from the date of the current prospectus, as indicated therein.

5. Pending Litigation

Since 2009, a number of class action, derivative and individual lawsuits have been pending in federal and state courts against OppenheimerFunds, Inc., the Fund’s investment advisor (the “Manager”), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Fund’s principal underwriter and distributor (the “Distributor”), and certain funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Funds’ investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek


30				OPPENHEIMER CASH RESERVES

unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits.

Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. On September 22, 2011, the court entered an order approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In October 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. In June 2012, the court granted appellees’ motion to dismiss the appeal. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against the Manager and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.

On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (“AAArdvark XS”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The

complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.

The Manager believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves, including the statement of investments, as of July 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The accompanying financial highlights of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves for the year ended July 31, 2008 were audited by other auditors whose report dated September 12, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oppenheimer Cash Reserves as of July 31, 2012, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited

In early 2012, if applicable, shareholders of record received information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2011.

None of the dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012 are qualified dividend income or eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.

Recent tax legislation allows a regulated investment company to designate distributions not designated as capital gain distributions, as either interest related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends, both of which are exempt from the U.S. withholding tax applicable to non U.S. taxpayers. For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, the maximum amount allowable but not less than $119,941 of the ordinary distributions paid or to be paid by the Fund qualifies as an interest related dividend and the maximum amount allowable but not less than $39,477 of the short-term capital gain distribution to be paid by the Fund qualifies as a short-term capital gain dividend.

The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents

This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.

Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

Internet Security and Encryption

In general, the email services provided by our website are encrypted and provide a secure and private means of communication with us. To protect your own privacy, confidential and/or personal information should only be communicated via email when you are advised that you are using a secure website.

As a security measure, we do not include personal or account information in non-secure emails, and we advise you not to send such information to us in non-secure emails. Instead, you may take advantage of the secure features of our website to encrypt your email correspondence. To do this, you will need to use a browser that supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

We do not guarantee or warrant that any part of our website, including files available for download, are free of viruses or other harmful code. It is your responsibility to take appropriate precautions, such as use of an anti-virus software package, to protect your computer hardware and software.

All transactions, including redemptions, exchanges and purchases, are secured by SSL and 128-bit encryption. SSL is used to establish a secure connection between your PC and OppenheimerFunds’ server. It transmits information in an encrypted and scrambled format.

Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that uses a “key” to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the cable converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with a secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software unscrambles the data.

You can exit the secure area by either closing your browser, or for added security, you can use the Log Out button before you close your browser.

The Fund’s Governance Committee Provisions with Respect to Nominations of Directors/Trustees to the Respective Boards

The Fund’s Governance Committee (the “Committee”) will evaluate potential Board candidates to assess their qualifications. The Committee shall have the authority, upon approval of the Board, to retain an executive search firm to assist in this effort. The Committee may consider recommendations by business and personal contacts of current

Board members and by executive search firms which the Committee may engage from time to time and may also consider shareholder recommendations. The Committee may consider the advice and recommendation of the Funds’ investment manager and its affiliates in making the selection.

The Committee shall screen candidates for Board membership. The Committee has not established specific qualifications that it believes must be met by a trustee nominee. In evaluating trustee nominees, the Committee considers, among other things, an individual’s background, skills, and experience; whether the individual is an “interested person” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940; and whether the individual would be deemed an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of applicable SEC rules. The Committee also considers whether the individual’s background, skills, and experience will complement the background, skills, and experience of other nominees and will contribute to the Board. There are no differences in the manner in which the Committee evaluates nominees for trustees based on whether the nominee is recommended by a shareholder.

The Committee may consider nominations from shareholders for the Board at such times as the Committee meets to consider new nominees for the Board. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine the candidates to present to the Board and, in such cases where required, to shareholders. Recommendations for trustee nominees should, at a minimum, be accompanied by the following:

•

the name, address, and business, educational, and/or other pertinent background of the person being recommended;

•

a statement concerning whether the person is an “interested person” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940;

•

any other information that the Funds would be required to include in a proxy statement concerning the person if he or she was nominated; and

•

the name and address of the person submitting the recommendation and, if that person is a shareholder, the period for which that person held Fund shares.

The recommendation also can include any additional information which the person submitting it believes would assist the Committee in evaluating the recommendation.

Shareholders should note that a person who owns securities issued by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (the parent company of the Funds’ investment adviser) would be deemed an “interested person” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In addition, certain other relationships with Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company or its subsidiaries, with registered broker-dealers, or with the Funds’ outside legal counsel may cause a person to be deemed an “interested person.”

Before the Committee decides to nominate an individual as a trustee, Committee members and other directors customarily interview the individual in person. In addition, the individual customarily is asked to complete a detailed questionnaire which is designed to elicit information which must be disclosed under SEC and stock exchange rules and to determine whether the individual is subject to any statutory disqualification from serving as a trustee of a registered investment company.

Item 11. Controls and Procedures.

Based on their evaluation of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (17 CFR 270.30a-3(c)) as of 7/31/2012, the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer found the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports that it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (a) is accumulated and communicated to registrant’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (b) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

There have been no changes in the registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 12. Exhibits.

(2) Exhibits attached hereto.

(3) Not applicable.

(b)	Exhibit attached hereto.

SIGNATURES
