INFORMATION STATEMENT
THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS BEING PROVIDED TO YOU BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF MULTI SOFT II, INC. (THE "COMPANY" "WE," "US" OR "OUR").
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY
BY WRITTEN CONSENT IN LIEU OF A MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS, SHAREHOLDERS OWNING APPROXIMATELY 65.4% OF THE VOTING POWER OF OUR OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK HAVE APPROVED THE DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION OF THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO A PLAN OF LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION. A VOTE OF THE REMAINING SHAREHOLDERS IS NOT NECESSARY.
OVERVIEW OF DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION OF THE COMPANY
This Information Statement is being furnished to shareholders of Multi Soft II, Inc., a Florida corporation ("we," "us," "our," or the "Company"), in connection with the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") on October 11, 2024, which the Board recommended that the shareholders of the Company adopt and approve, and which shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock (the "Consenting Shareholders"), par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), did adopt and approve by written consent on October 16, 2024 (the "Written Consent"). The Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution (the "Plan") is included in this Information Statement as Annex A
This information is being provided to you pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). This Information Statement also constitutes the notice to the Company's shareholders of a corporate action taken by written consent of the Consenting Shareholders required by Section 607.0704 of the Florida Business Corporation Act (the "FBCA"). Copies of this Notice and Information Statement are first being mailed on or about November 1, 2024 to all Company shareholders of record as of the close of business (Eastern time) on October 22, 2024, the record date for this information statement.
As of the close of business on the record date, there were 1,233,853 shares of Common Stock outstanding held by approximately 173 holders of record.
Because the Plan has been approved by the Consenting Shareholders pursuant to the Written Consent, you are not being asked to vote your shares with respect to the Plan. The Company will act on the matters set forth in the Written Consent no earlier than twenty (20) calendar days from the date the definitive Notice and Information Statement is first mailed to the Company's shareholders.
There will be no assets available for distribution to the Company's shareholders and none of the shares of the Common Stock will have any value upon completion of the Plan.
Information About the Company; Liquidation and Dissolution of the Company
The Company was originally incorporated on July 29, 1985, in New Jersey under the name "Multi Soft, Inc." The Company was engaged in the production, marketing and maintenance of a line of software products consisting of tools for the development of client-server, front-ending, and Internet based applications using a mainframe or an Internet server through 2002 (the "Prior Operations").
Until May 2011, we were a consolidated subsidiary of Multi Solutions, Inc., a New Jersey corporation ("Multi Solutions"). In July 1986, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 33-3133) declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on July 14, 1986 (the "S-1"), we,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

along with Multi Solutions as co-issuer, consummated an exchange offering to holders of Multi Solutions Class A common stock warrants to exchange such warrants plus cash for units consisting of our common stock and common stock warrants, plus Multi Solutions common stock and Multi Solutions Class C common stock warrants. In 2002, we began to discontinue and wind down our Prior Operations and by 2005, our Prior Operations had completely ceased.
As reported in the Company's filings with the SEC, since ceasing our Prior Operations, the Company has not engaged in any business activity but has explored the possibility of acquiring or merging with several companies. Throughout this period, the Company had no employees apart from management and paid no compensation to its president, who devoted most of his business time to other activities. The Company continues to incur administrative expenses relating to maintenance of its corporate status and compliance with SEC regulations.
In September 2011, the Company effected a reverse split and changed its domicile from New Jersey to Florida. As a result of the filing of Articles of Merger with the State of Florida, the reverse split was effective on September 29, 2011. All shares issued prior to September 29, 2011 have been restated retroactively to reflect the reverse split.
The Board has determined that there is no reasonable prospect for a satisfactory merger or acquisition of or by the Company, and that there is no business reason for the Company to continue in existence. Accordingly, the Board of Directors authorized, and recommended that the shareholders of the Company approve and adopt, a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution (the "Plan") on October 11, 2024 and the Plan was approved and adopted by the Consenting Shareholders through the Written Consent on October 16, 2024. The Plan is set forth in its entirety at Annex A attached hereto. The Board and the officers of the Company (the "Officers") may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, modify, amend or abandon the Plan without any further shareholder approval. Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 of the Exchange Act, the Company will not act on the matters set forth in the Written Consent until twenty (20) calendar days from the date the definitive Notice and Information statement is first mailed to the Company's shareholders.
In reliance upon the Written Consent, we expect to file Articles of Dissolution (the "Articles of Dissolution") with the Florida Department of State dissolving the Company pursuant to the FBCA on or shortly after the date that is twenty (20) calendar days from the date the definitive Notice and Information statement is first mailed to the Company's shareholders. The Company will continue to exist after its dissolution for the period set forth in the FBCA or as may be required pursuant to the Plan, including to resolve any pending litigation matters, to prosecute and defend suits against the Company and enable the Company to wind up its business, to dispose of its property, to discharge its liabilities and to distribute any remaining assets to its shareholders.
Upon filing of the Articles of Dissolution, the Plan provides that the Company will cease further business activities except to the extent and for the period described above. The Plan provides that, among other actions, the following steps will be completed at such times as the Board or the Officers implementing the Plan, in their discretion and in accordance with the FBCA, deem necessary, appropriate or advisable in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders:

Pay or make provision for the payment of liabilities, debts or obligations of the Company prior to the date of the Plan of Liquidation or to be incurred after such date, including expenses associated with the liquidation and winding up of our affairs;

If deemed necessary or appropriate by the Board, in its absolute discretion, establish and set aside a contingency reserve to satisfy claims against any unmatured or contingent liabilities of ours and expenses of the sale of our property and assets and the liquidation and dissolution provided for in the Plan; and

Take any and all other actions permitted or required by the FBCA and any other applicable laws and regulations.
Our Board and the Officers may, to the full extent permitted by law, amend the Plan without any further shareholder approval if it determines that such amendment is in the best interest of our shareholders. Neither our Board nor the Officers may amend or modify the Plan under circumstances that would require

2
TABLE OF CONTENTS​​​

additional shareholder approval under the FBCA or federal securities laws without complying with such requirements. In addition, if the Board determines that dissolution and liquidation are not in our best interests or the best interests of our shareholders, the Board may direct that the Plan be abandoned.
Dissenters' Rights; Regulatory Requirements
Florida law does not provide for any dissenters' rights or rights of appraisal in connection with this action. To the best of the knowledge of the Company, except for the filing of the Articles of Dissolution with the Florida Secretary of State and compliance with the FBCA, federal and state securities laws and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), no U.S. federal or state regulatory requirements must be complied with, and no approvals must be obtained, in connection with the dissolution and liquidation of the Company.
We plan to file the Articles of Dissolution, as directed by the Consenting Shareholders in the Written Consent, no earlier than twenty (20) calendar days from the date the definitive Notice and Information statement is first mailed to the Company's shareholders.
Reporting Requirements of the Exchange Act
Our Common Stock is registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and, as a result, the Company has reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. We are current in our Exchange Act reporting obligations. Continued compliance with the reporting requirements of Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, however, is a substantial financial burden on us. As of July 31, 2024, the Company has de minimis equity value (approximately -$1,213,211), with $2,649 in cash and cash equivalents and $1,197,041 owed under a shareholder loan (which shareholder loan is contemplated to be forgiven in connection with the Plan. In order to continue with its reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) the Company requires additional funds, which it believes could only be raised from the Company's shareholders, if at all. Importantly, compliance with Sections 13(a) and 15(d) reporting requirements provides no benefit to any existing shareholder or to any trading market. The Company is seeking to curtail expenditures and conserve cash to enable it to dissolve in an orderly and responsible manner. The Company estimates that the costs associated with producing its Annual Report on Form 10-K and each Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the year ended December 31, 2024, would be approximately $50,000 per year, including fees paid to the Company's independent registered accounting firm and legal fees for report preparation and review.
In light of this, in reliance upon the Written Consent and upon the filing the Plan of Dissolution, the Board approved the filing of a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the Company's registration and reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.
Authority of Officers and Directors
Our Board may appoint Officers and retain employees, independent contractors and agents as necessary or desirable to implement the Plan and is authorized to pay compensation to or otherwise compensate our directors, officers, employees, independent contractors and agents in order to successfully implement the Plan. Shareholder approval of the Plan pursuant to the Written Consent will constitute approval by shareholders of any such compensation.
In reliance upon shareholder approval of the Plan and without further shareholder action, our Board and, at the direction of the Board, the Officers, are authorized to do and perform any and all acts and to make, execute and deliver any and all agreements, conveyances, assignments, transfers, certificates and other documents of every kind and character that our board of directors or any such officer deems necessary, appropriate or advisable to implement the Plan and to carry out the dissolution and winding up of the Company, including to (1) dissolve the Company in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, (2) sell, dispose, convey, transfer and deliver the assets of the Company, (3) satisfy or provide for the satisfaction of the Company's obligations and (4) distribute all remaining funds of the Company to the shareholders of the Company in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended.
Additional information concerning the Board and executive officers of the Company is hereby incorporated by reference to Part II, Item 10 of the Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on April 29, 2024.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​​​

Professional Fees and Expenses
It is specifically contemplated that we will obtain legal, tax and accounting advice and guidance from one or more law and accounting firms and tax advisors in implementing the Plan, and we will pay all fees and expenses reasonably incurred by us in connection with or arising out of the implementation of the Plan, including the prosecution, defense, settlement or other resolution of any claims or suits by or against us, the discharge, filing and disclosure of outstanding obligations, liabilities and claims, filing and resolution of claims with local, county, state and federal tax authorities, and the advancement and reimbursement of any fees and expenses payable by us pursuant to the indemnification we provide in the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, and our bylaws, the FBCA or otherwise. In addition, in connection with and for the purpose of implementing and assuring completion of the Plan, we may, in the absolute discretion of any of the Board or the Officers, pay any brokerage, agency, professional and other fees and expenses of persons rendering services to us in connection with the collection, sale, exchange or other disposition of our property and assets and the implementation of the Plan.
Indemnification and Insurance
We will continue to indemnify our officers, directors, employees, agents and the liquidating trustee(s), if any, to the maximum extent required by applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, and our bylaws, and any contractual arrangements, for actions taken in connection with the Plan and the winding up of our business and affairs. Our Board is authorized to obtain and maintain insurance as may be necessary, appropriate or advisable to cover such indemnification obligations, including seeking an extension in time and coverage of our insurance policies currently in effect.
MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
OF THE COMPANY'S DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION
The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Plan that are generally applicable to our shareholders. This discussion is included for general information purposes only and does not constitute, and is not, a tax opinion or tax advice to any particular shareholder. This summary is based on the provisions of the Code, the U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, administrative rulings and other legal authorities, all as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change could alter or modify the statements and conclusions set forth below. No ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") and no opinion of counsel will be requested or obtained concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Plan of Liquidation. The tax consequences set forth in the following discussion are not binding on the IRS or the courts, and no assurance can be given that contrary positions will not be successfully asserted by the IRS or adopted by a court.
EACH SHAREHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT HIS, HER OR ITS OWN TAX ADVISERS TO DETERMINE THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH SHAREHOLDER AS A RESULT OF THE PLAN OF LIQUIDATION, AND ANY FEDERAL NON-INCOME, STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES RELEVANT TO SUCH SHAREHOLDER AS A RESULT OF THE PLAN OF LIQUIDATION.
The following discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular shareholder in light of such shareholder's particular circumstances, or who may be subject to special rules under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including holders that are not "United States persons" ​(as defined in the Code), former U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents of the United States, including retirement plans, "individual retirement accounts" or "Roth IRAs" and other tax-deferred accounts, mutual funds, retirement plans, financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, brokers or dealers in securities, traders who mark to market, shareholders who hold their shares as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion or other integrated financial transaction, S-corporations, partnerships and other passthrough entities, and persons that hold shares through an S-corporation, partnership or other pass-through entity. This discussion assumes that shareholders hold their stock as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment) and that no such stock was worthless within the meaning of Section 165(g) of

4
TABLE OF CONTENTS

the Code prior to adoption of the Plan. In addition, the discussion does not address any aspect of federal non-income, state, local or non-U.S. taxation that may be applicable to a particular shareholder.
Federal Income Taxation of our Shareholders
It is not anticipated that shareholders will receive any proceeds or other value pursuant to the dissolution and liquidation. As a result, a shareholder generally will recognize loss equal to such shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the shares of our Common Stock. Any loss recognized will be long-term capital loss if the shareholder's holding period for the shares of our Common Stock exceed one year. Recognized loss generally will be determined separately for each block of the shares of our Common Stock (that is, shares of our Common Stock acquired at the same coset in a single transaction). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.
The tax consequences of the Plan may vary depending upon the particular circumstances of the shareholder. We recommend that each shareholder consult his, her or its own tax adviser regarding the federal income tax consequences of the Plan of Liquidation as well as the state, local and foreign tax consequences.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Information Statement may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance. Words such as "outlook," "believes," "expects," "potential," "continues," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "predicts," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates" or the negative version of those words or other comparable words indicate forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements include these words. The forward-looking statements in this information statement are subject to various risks and uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, financial results, financial condition, business prospects, growth strategy and liquidity. Our actual results may vary materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements, including as a result of the factors described under "Risk Factors" in our quarterly and annual reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include: changes in the economy, financial markets and political environment; risks associated with possible disruption in the economy generally due to terrorism or natural disasters; the timing of release of amounts subject to escrow under the asset purchase agreement referenced herein and the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; future changes in laws or regulations (including the interpretation of these laws and regulations by regulatory authorities); our ability to satisfy our debt obligations and pay dividends to our shareholders; potential wind-down or dispositions of our business; and other considerations that may be disclosed from time to time in our publicly disseminated documents and filings. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Although we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the SEC, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, or otherwise make available to investors.
