Collective Acquisition II ^{Filed Terms, Nasdaq: CAIIU}

We are a blank check company incorporated on February 9, 2026 as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this prospectus as our initial business combination. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. Although we may pursue an initial business combination in any industry, sector or geographic region, we intend to focus our search initially on businesses that provide products or services impacting the sovereignty, security, self-sufficiency, or other national interests of the United States and/or its allies, including in the financial, strategic resources, defense technology, or artificial intelligence sectors. We believe that the experience and capabilities of our management team will make us an attractive partner to potential target businesses, enhance our ability to complete a successful business combination, and bring value to the business post-business combination. Our team has broad sector knowledge though their collective involvement across a variety of industries, as well as extensive global capital markets experience, with local and cross-border capabilities allowing access to different sectors of the capital markets.
