FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED? BELOW IS A DISCUSSION BY OPPENHEIMERFUNDS, INC., OF
THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE DURING ITS FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 2007, FOLLOWED BY
A GRAPHICAL COMPARISON OF THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE TO AN APPROPRIATE BROAD-BASED
MARKET INDEX.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE. For the 12-month period ended
August 31, 2007, Oppenheimer Main Street Fund's Class A shares (without sales
charge) produced returns that were higher than its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index,
and the average return of all funds in its peer group, the Lipper Large-Cap Core
category. The Fund's performance was especially strong over the reporting
period's second half, when a credit crisis caused equity investors to turn away
from the smaller, riskier businesses that previously had led the markets.
The Fund's market-capitalization, sector-allocation and security selection
strategies all contributed positively to the Fund's performance. The Fund's
overweighted exposure to mega-cap stocks and an underweighted position in
mid-cap stocks paid off when very large companies gained relative momentum and
smaller ones faded over the final months of the reporting period.
From a sector allocation perspective, the Fund's overweighted positions in
the information technology area and underweighted exposure to the financials and
consumer staples areas fared well. Security selections within most sectors also
boosted returns, with the best results being achieved in the consumer staples,
information technology, and materials sectors. In addition, the Fund had little
exposure to financial services companies that were hurt by the sub-prime
mortgage meltdown. Laggards during the reporting period included the consumer
discretionary and health care areas, where disappointing security selections
were primarily responsible for below-average results.
As of the reporting period's end, the Fund's weighted market
capitalization stood at its highest level relative to the S&P 500 since November
2004. The Fund ended the period with virtually no exposure to small-cap
companies, and its exposure to mid-cap stocks is substantially below that of the
benchmark. The Fund held approximately 160 stocks as of August 31, 2007, down
substantially from one year ago. This decrease reflects the Fund's greater
concentration among large- and mega-cap companies, including those with strong
quality characteristics. As always, we remain committed to a quantitative
discipline of investing that relies on active market capitalization, allocation,
stock selection models, portfolio construction methods and low-cost
implementation.

COMPARING THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE TO THE MARKET. The graphs that follow show the
performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in each class of shares of the
Fund held until August 31, 2007. In the case of Class A, Class B, Class C and
Class Y shares, performance is measured over a ten-fiscal-year period. In the
case of Class N shares, performance is measured from inception of the class on
March 1, 2001. The Fund's performance reflects the deduction of the maximum
initial sales charge on Class A shares, the applicable contingent deferred sales
charge on Class B, Class C and Class N shares, and reinvestments of all
dividends and capital gains distributions. Past performance cannot guarantee
future results.
The Fund's performance is compared to the performance of the S&P 500
Index. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of equity securities. Index
performance reflects the reinvestment of income but does not consider the effect
of transaction costs, and none of the data in the graphs shows the effect of
taxes. The Fund's performance reflects the effects of the Fund's business and
operating expenses. While index comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark
for the Fund's performance, it must be noted that the Fund's investments are not
limited to the investments in the index.

THE PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE, WHICH DOES NOT
GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS. THE INVESTMENT RETURN AND PRINCIPAL VALUE OF AN
INVESTMENT IN THE FUND WILL FLUCTUATE SO THAT AN INVESTOR'S SHARES, WHEN
REDEEMED, MAY BE WORTH MORE OR LESS THAN THEIR ORIGINAL COST. CURRENT
PERFORMANCE MAY BE LOWER OR HIGHER THAN THE PERFORMANCE QUOTED. FOR PERFORMANCE
DATA CURRENT TO THE MOST RECENT MONTH END, VISIT US AT WWW.OPPENHEIMERFUNDS.COM,
OR CALL US AT 1.800.525.7048. FUND RETURNS INCLUDE CHANGES IN SHARE PRICE,
REINVESTED DISTRIBUTIONS, AND THE APPLICABLE SALES CHARGE: FOR CLASS A SHARES,
THE CURRENT MAXIMUM INITIAL SALES CHARGE OF 5.75%; FOR CLASS B SHARES, THE
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE OF 5% (1-YEAR) AND 2% (5-YEAR); AND FOR CLASS C
AND N SHARES, THE CONTINGENT 1% DEFERRED SALES CHARGE FOR THE 1-YEAR PERIOD.
THERE IS NO SALES CHARGE FOR CLASS Y SHARES. BECAUSE CLASS B SHARES CONVERT TO
CLASS A SHARES 72 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, THE 10-YEAR RETURN FOR CLASS B SHARES
USES CLASS A PERFORMANCE FOR THE PERIOD AFTER CONVERSION. SEE PAGE 17 FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION.

NOTES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total returns and the ending account values in the graphs include changes in
share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a
hypothetical investment for the periods shown. The Fund's total returns shown do
not reflect the deduction of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes
may reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund or
any gains you may realize if you sell your shares.
INVESTORS SHOULD CONSIDER THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, RISKS, AND OTHER
CHARGES AND EXPENSES CAREFULLY BEFORE INVESTING. THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS CONTAINS
THIS AND OTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUND, AND MAY BE OBTAINED BY ASKING YOUR
FINANCIAL ADVISOR, CALLING US AT 1.800.525.7048 OR VISITING OUR WEBSITE AT
WWW.OPPENHEIMERFUNDS.COM. READ THE PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE INVESTING.
The Fund's investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of
specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds,
Inc.
CLASS A shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 2/3/88. Class A
returns include the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%.
CLASS B shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 10/3/94. Class B
returns include the applicable contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year)
and 2% (5-year). Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months
after purchase, the 10-year return for Class B uses Class A performance for the
period after conversion. Class B shares are subject to an annual 0.75%
asset-based sales charge.
CLASS C shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 12/1/93. Class C
returns include the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year
period. Class C shares are subject to an annual 0.75% asset-based sales charge.
CLASS N shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 3/1/01. Class N shares
are offered only through retirement plans. Unless otherwise noted, Class N
returns include the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year
period. Class N shares are subject to an annual 0.25% asset-based sales charge.

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 redemption fees, if any;
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 August 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES. The "actual" lines of the table provide information about
actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this
line 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 "actual" line 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 "hypothetical" lines of the
table provide 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 before expenses, which is not the
Fund's 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" lines of the
table are 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 Y Hypothetical 1,000.00 1,022.79 2.45
Hypothetical assumes 5% annual return before expenses.
Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio for that class,
multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365
(to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios,
excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period
ended August 31, 2007 are as follows:
CLASS EXPENSE RATIOS
- ------------------------------------
Class A 0.88%
- ------------------------------------
Class B 1.62
- ------------------------------------
Class C 1.62
- ------------------------------------
Class N 1.15
- ------------------------------------
Class Y 0.48
The expense ratios reflect reduction to custodian expenses and voluntary waivers
or reimbursements by the Fund's Manager that can be terminated at any time,
without advance notice. 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 Main Street Fund (the Fund) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Main
Street Funds, Inc., an open-end management investment company registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund's investment objective
is to seek a high total return. The Fund's investment advisor is
OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares.
Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset
value plus a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are
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. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors without
either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the institutional investor
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 have
separate distribution and/or service plans. No such plan has been adopted for
Class Y shares. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six
years after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES VALUATION. 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 business. Securities may be
valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Directors. Securities listed or traded on National
Stock Exchanges or other domestic exchanges are valued based on the last sale
price of the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's
assets are valued. Securities traded on NASDAQ(R) are valued based on the
closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund's assets are
valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price
on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the closing "bid" and
"asked" prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities traded on
foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing
service, prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of
a sale, the security is valued at the official closing price on the principal
exchange. Corporate, government and municipal debt instruments having a
remaining maturity in excess of sixty days and all mortgage-backed securities
will be valued at the mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices. Futures
contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the
final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as
reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most
recently prior to, the time when the Fund's assets are
36 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND
valued. Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded. Securities (including restricted
securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at
their fair value. Foreign and domestic securities whose values have been
materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event
occurring before the Fund's assets are valued but after the close of their
respective exchanges will be fair valued. Fair value is determined in good faith
using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of
Directors. Investments in open-end registered investment companies (including
affiliated funds) are valued at that fund's net asset value. Short-term "money
market type" debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are
valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Fund's accounting records are maintained in
U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and
amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign
investment income are translated into U.S. dollars 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 business. Foreign exchange rates may be valued
primarily using dealer supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Directors.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of
portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and
settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the
amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the
Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or
paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the
values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal
period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT IN OPPENHEIMER INSTITUTIONAL MONEY MARKET FUND. The Fund is permitted
to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The
Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer
Institutional Money Market Fund ("IMMF") which seeks current income and
stability of principal. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment
company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment advisor of IMMF. The Fund's
investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments, if applicable.
As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF's Class
E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or
reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees
incurred through the Fund's investment in IMMF.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued
JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other affiliated funds
advised by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading
accounts on a daily basis. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase
agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held
by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that
the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest
and principal. In the event of default by the other party to the agreement,
retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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, including any net
realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any,
to shareholders, therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is
required.
The tax components of capital shown in the table below 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 and
unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes.

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
38 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND
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 August 31, 2007. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the
reclassifications.

=================================
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of
unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for
federal income tax purposes as of August 31, 2007 are noted below. The primary
difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and
other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses
or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION. The Board of Directors has adopted a compensation
deferral plan for independent directors that enables directors 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
Director 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 Director. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for
deferral by the Director 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 directors' 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 to the
compensation deferral plan.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if
any, are declared and paid annually.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and amortization
of premium, is accrued as earned.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 overdrafts, to the extent they are not
offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the
Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. 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
directors 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 U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
MANAGEMENT FEES. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee at an
annual rate of average net assets as shown in the following table:
FEE SCHEDULE
-----------------------------------------------
Up to $200 million 0.65%
Next $150 million 0.60
Next $150 million 0.55
Over $500 million 0.45
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADMINISTRATION SERVICE FEES. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year
for preparing and filing the Fund's tax returns.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 August 31, 2007, the Fund paid
$18,921,456 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Additionally, Class Y shares are subject to minimum fees of $10,000 per
annum for assets of $10 million or more. The Class Y shares are subject to the
minimum fees in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the
applicable minimum fees. OFS may voluntarily waive the minimum fees.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 for Class A
shares. It 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 0.25% 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 for Class B, Class C and Class N
shares 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 and
Class C shares and 0.25% on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a
service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. 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 Directors and its independent directors must determine whether the
Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of
the service
42 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND
fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the
effective date of such termination. The Distributor determines its uncompensated
expenses under the plan at calendar quarter ends. The Distributor's aggregate
uncompensated expenses under the plan at June 30, 2007 for Class B, Class C and
Class N shares were $19,978,111, $36,529,939 and $3,602,930, respectively. Fees
incurred by the Fund under the plans are detailed in the Statement of
Operations.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SALES CHARGES. Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges
(CDSC) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the
proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds
prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the
Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on
the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period
indicated.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PAYMENTS, WAIVERS AND REIMBURSEMENTS OF EXPENSES. 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. This undertaking may be amended or
withdrawn at any time.
The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount
equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund's investment in
IMMF. During the year ended August 31, 2007, the Manager waived $48,738 for IMMF
management fees.
The Distributor paid the Fund $47,596 in restitution as part of a
settlement with respect to an investigation of certain agreements between the
Distributor and various financial intermediaries that had selling agreements
with the Distributor. The payment increased the Fund's total returns by less
than 0.01%.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into foreign
currency contracts to settle specific purchases or sales of securities
denominated in a foreign currency and for protection from adverse exchange rate
fluctuation. Risks to the Fund include the potential inability of the
counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.
The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using prevailing foreign currency exchange rates.
Unrealized appreciation and depreciation on foreign currency contracts are
reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable
and in the Statement of Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS Continued
The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the
foreign transaction. Contracts closed or settled with the same broker are
recorded as net realized gains or losses. Such realized gains and losses are
reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of
Operations.
As of August 31, 2007, the Fund had no outstanding foreign currency
contracts.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. ILLIQUID SECURITIES
As of August 31, 2007, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available
market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The
Fund will not invest more than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of
purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. Securities that are
illiquid are marked with the applicable footnote on the Statement of
Investments.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. SECURITIES LENDING
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. In return, the Fund receives collateral in the form of
securities, letters of credit or cash, against the loaned securities and
maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the
loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned
securities is determined at the close of business each day. If the Fund is
undercollateralized at the close of business due to an increase in market value
of securities on loan, additional collateral is requested from the borrowing
counterparty and is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. Cash
collateral may be invested in approved investments and the Fund bears the risk
of any loss in value of these investments. The Fund retains a portion of the
interest earned from the collateral. If the borrower defaults on its obligation
to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund
could experience delays and cost in recovering the securities loaned or in
gaining access to the collateral. The Fund continues to receive the economic
benefit of interest or dividends paid on the securities loaned in the form of a
substitute payment received from the borrower. As of August 31, 2007, the Fund
had on loan securities valued at $104,898,203, which are included in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities as "Investments, at value" and, when
applicable, as "Receivable for Investments sold." Collateral of $112,554,631 was
received for the loans, all of which was received in cash and subsequently
invested in approved investments.

8. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES.
FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an
enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109,
ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions
taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it
is "more-likely-than-not" that tax positions taken in the Fund's tax return will
be ultimately sustained. A tax liability and expense must be recorded in respect
of any tax position that, in Management's judgment, will not be fully realized.
FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. As of
August 31, 2007, the Manager has evaluated the implications of FIN 48 and does
not currently anticipate a material impact to the Fund's financial statements.
The Manager will continue to monitor the Fund's tax positions prospectively for
potential future impacts.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS. This standard establishes a
single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS
No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by
existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. As of August 31, 2007, the Manager does not believe the
adoption of SFAS No. 157 will materially impact the financial statement amounts;
however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop
the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net
assets for the period.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Main Street Fund (the "Fund") a series of Oppenheimer Main Street
Fund, Inc., including the statement of investments, as of August 31, 2007, and
the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and
the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of
the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with 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.
The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of
its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration
of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation
of securities owned as of August 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. 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 the
Fund as of August 31, 2007, the results of its operations for the year then
ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the
period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In early 2008, if applicable, shareholders of record will receive information
regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during
calendar year 2007. Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund
to report this information to the Internal Revenue Service.
Capital gain distributions of $1.5925 per share were paid to Class A,
Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shareholders, respectively, on December 4,
2006. Whether received in stock or in cash, the capital gain distribution should
be treated by shareholders as a gain from the sale of the capital assets held
for more than one year (long-term capital gains).
Dividends, if any, paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended August
31, 2007 which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be
multiplied by 42.93% to arrive at the amount eligible for the corporate
dividend-received deduction.
A portion, if any, of the dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2007 which are not designated as capital gain
distributions are eligible for lower individual income tax rates to the extent
that the Fund has received qualified dividend income as stipulated by recent tax
legislation. $212,463,221 of the Fund's fiscal year taxable income may be
eligible for the lower individual income tax rates. In early 2008, shareholders
of record will receive information regarding the percentage of distributions
that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates.
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 August 31, 2007, $385,043 or 0.44% of the ordinary distributions paid
by the Fund qualifies as an interest related 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.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND'S INVESTMENT
ADVISORY AGREEMENT Unaudited
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each year, the Board of Directors (the "Board"), including a majority of the
independent Directors, is required to determine whether to renew the Fund's
investment advisory agreement (the "Agreement"). The Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the
Manager provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the
terms of the Agreement. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a
report that provides information, including comparative information, that the
Board requests for that purpose. In addition, the Board receives information
throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.
The Manager and the independent consultant provided information to the
Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the
Manager's services, (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Manager,
(iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative expense
information, (iv) the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates, including
an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale
are realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of
scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Manager from its
relationship with the Fund. Outlined below is a summary of the principal
information considered by the Board as well as the Board's conclusions.
The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the Manager.
NATURE, QUALITY AND EXTENT OF SERVICES. The Board considered information
about the nature and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information
regarding the Manager's key personnel who provide such services. The Manager's
duties include providing the Fund with the services of the portfolio managers
and the Manager's investment team, who provide research, analysis and other
advisory services in regard to the Fund's investments; securities trading
services; oversight of third party service providers; monitoring compliance with
applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Fund's investment
restrictions. The Manager is responsible for providing certain administrative
services to the Fund as well. Those services include providing and supervising
all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide
effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and maintaining
records with respect to the Fund's operations; preparing and filing reports
required by the Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports
regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy
materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements
required by Federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Fund's shares.
The Manager also provides the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND'S INVESTMENT
ADVISORY AGREEMENT Unaudited / Continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the
quality of the Manager's resources that are available to the Fund. The Board
took account of the fact that the Manager has had over forty years of experience
as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the
top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board evaluated the Manager's
administrative, accounting, legal and compliance services, and information the
Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of
the Manager's key personnel and the size and functions of its staff providing
investment management services to the Fund. In its evaluation of the quality of
the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience
of Nikolaos Monoyios and Marc Reinganum and the Manager's Main Street Investment
team and analysts. Mr. Monoyios has been a portfolio manager of the Fund since
April 1998 and Mr. Reinganum has been a portfolio manager of the Fund since
October 2003. The Board members also considered the totality of their
experiences with the Manager as directors or trustees of the Fund and other
funds advised by the Manager. In light of the foregoing, the Board concluded
that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreement as a
result of the Manager's experience, reputation, personnel, operations, and
resources.
INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE MANAGER AND THE FUND. During the year, the
Manager provided information on the investment performance of the Fund and the
Manager at each Board meeting, including comparative performance information.
The Board also reviewed information, prepared by the Manager and by the
independent consultant, comparing the Fund's historical performance to relevant
market indices and to the performance of other retail front-end load and no-load
large-cap core funds including both funds advised by the Manager and funds
advised by other investment advisers. The Board noted that the Fund's one-year,
three-year, five-year and ten-year performance were better than its peer group
median.
COSTS OF SERVICES AND PROFITS REALIZED BY THE MANAGER. The Board
considered information regarding the Manager's costs in serving as the Fund's
investment adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and
systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Manager's
profitability from its relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed the fees
paid to the Manager and the other expenses borne by the Fund. The Board also
considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to
the Fund to the fees and services for other clients or accounts advised by the
Manager. The independent consultant provided comparative data in regard to the
fees and expenses of the Fund, other retail front-end load large-cap core,
large-cap value, large-cap growth, and multi-cap core funds and other funds with
comparable asset levels and distribution
50 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND
features. The Board noted that the Fund's contractual management fees are lower
than its peer group median although its actual management fees are equal to its
peer group median.
ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Board reviewed whether the Manager may realize
economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund. The Board noted that the
Fund currently has management fee breakpoints, which are intended to share with
shareholders economies of scale that may exist as the Fund grows with
shareholders.
OTHER BENEFITS TO THE MANAGER. In addition to considering the profits
realized by the Manager, the Board considered information that was provided
regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Manager receives as a result of
its relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Manager's
affiliates and research provided to the Manager in connection with permissible
brokerage arrangements (soft dollar arrangements). The Board also considered
that the Manager must be able to pay and retain experienced professional
personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund and that
maintaining the financial viability of the Manager is important in order for the
Manager to continue to provide significant services to the Fund and its
shareholders.
CONCLUSIONS. These factors were also considered by the independent
Directors meeting separately from the full Board, assisted by experienced
counsel to the Fund and to the independent Directors. Fund counsel and the
independent Directors' counsel are both independent of the Manager within the
meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange Commission Rules.
Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations
described above, the Board, including a majority of the independent Directors,
decided to continue the Agreement for another year. In arriving at this
decision, the Board considered all of the above information. The Board
considered the terms and conditions of the Agreement, including the management
fee, in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.

THE FUND'S GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO NOMINATIONS OF
DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES TO THE RESPECTIVE BOARDS
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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:
o the name, address, and business, educational, and/or other pertinent
background of the person being recommended;
o a statement concerning whether the person is an "interested person" as
defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940;
o 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
o 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.
4. 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."
5. 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 08/31/2007, 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.
