These portfolios may be appropriate for a retirement plan investment, however, they are not a complete investment program. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss. In managing the portfolios, the manager will have the authority to select and substitute certain underlying Oppenheimer funds, as designated in the prospectus, and may be subject to potential conflicts of interest because the fees paid to it by some underlying funds are higher than the fees paid by others. However, the manager is obligated to act in each portfolio’s best interests when selecting underlying funds. Each of the underlying funds in which the portfolios invest has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of each portfolio’s shares and investments. In addition, there is no guarantee that the underlying funds will achieve their investment objectives. The underlying funds may change their investment objectives or policies without the approval of the portfolio, and a portfolio may be forced to sell its shares of the underlying funds at a disadvantageous time. Foreign investments (especially those in emerging and developing markets) may be more volatile and involve additional expenses and special risks, including currency fluctuations, foreign taxes and political and economic uncertainties. Technology, growth and small-cap stocks may be especially volatile. Value investing involves the risk that the market may not recognize that securities are undervalued and they may not appreciate as anticipated. Fixed income investing entails credit risks and interest rate risks. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall, and a fund’s share price can fall. Below-investment-grade (“junk”) bonds are more at risk of default than other bond investments and may be subject to liquidity risk. Derivative instruments, investments whose values depend on the performance of an underlying security, asset, interest rate, index or currency entail potentially higher volatility and risk of loss compared to traditional stock or bond investments. Risks associated with LifeCycle Funds and Portfolio Series Funds (Conservative Investor Fund, Moderate Investor Fund and Active Allocation Fund): Because they do not have an active trading market, shares of Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) may be illiquid. The lack of an active trading market may make it difficult to value or sell shares of REITs promptly at an acceptable price. In addition, owning high concentrations of energy-related natural resources may significantly influence returns. See the prospectus for additional risks of investing in a portfolio.
