EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment to the Registration Statement is being filed on behalf of Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund (the Fund), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust II, pursuant to Section 8(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s shares are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act) because the shares are issued solely in private placement transactions that do not involve any public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act. Investments in the Fund may be made only by investment companies, common or commingled trust funds or similar organizations or persons that are accredited investors within the meaning of the 1933 Act. This Amendment to the Registration Statement filed on behalf of the Fund does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any security within the meaning of the 1933 Act.

Part A and Part B to the Registration Statement for the Fund, each dated December 1, 2013, were previously filed in connection with Amendment No. 105 to the Registration Statement and are incorporated by reference into this Amendment to the Registration Statement. In addition, the most recent annual report for the Fund, which includes the Fund’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, is incorporated by reference into this Amendment to the Registration Statement.

This Amendment to the Registration Statement supplements Part A (the prospectus) and Part B (the Statement of Additional Information (SAI)) for the Fund as follows:

Supplement dated February 5, 2014

to the Prospectus of the following Fund:

 

Fund    Prospectus Dated
Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund    December 1, 2013

Effective immediately, the “Buying and Selling Shares” section of the prospectus is supplemented to add the following:

Excessive Trading Practices Policy of the Fund

A money market fund is designed to offer investors a liquid cash option that they may buy and sell as often as they wish. Accordingly, the Board has not adopted policies and procedures designed to discourage excessive or short-term trading of Fund shares. However, since frequent purchases and sales of Fund shares could in certain instances harm shareholders in various ways, including reducing the returns to long-term shareholders by increasing costs (such as spreads paid to dealers who trade money market instruments with the Fund) and disrupting portfolio management strategies, the Fund reserves the right, but has no obligation, to reject any purchase or sale transaction at any time. Except as expressly described in this prospectus, the Fund has no limits on purchase or sale transactions. In addition, the Fund reserves the right to impose or modify restrictions on purchases or trading of Fund shares at any time.

The rest of the section remains the same.

Item 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with the Registrant

Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the investment manager or Columbia Management), as sponsor of the Columbia funds, may make initial capital investments in Columbia funds (seed accounts). Columbia Management also serves as investment manager of certain Columbia funds-of-funds that invest primarily in shares

of affiliated funds (the “underlying funds”). Columbia Management does not make initial capital investments or invest in underlying funds for the purpose of exercising control. However, since these ownership interests may be significant, in excess of 25%, such that Columbia Management may be deemed to control certain Columbia funds, procedures have been put in place to assure that public shareholders determine the outcome of all actions taken at shareholder meetings. Specifically, Columbia Management (which votes proxies for the seed accounts) and the Boards of Trustees of the affiliated funds-of-funds (which votes proxies for the affiliated funds-of-funds) vote on each proposal in the same proportion as the vote of the direct public shareholders vote; provided, however, that if there are no direct public shareholders of an underlying fund or if direct public shareholders represent only a minority interest in an underlying fund, the Fund may cast votes in accordance with instructions from the independent members of the Board.

Item 30. Indemnification

The Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Registrant provides that the Registrant shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, by reason of the fact that she or he is or was a trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a trustee, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, wherever brought, and the Registrant may purchase liability insurance and advance legal expenses, all to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, as now existing or hereafter amended. The By-laws of the Registrant provide that present or former trustees or officers of the Registrant made or threatened to be made a party to or involved (including as a witness) in an actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding shall be indemnified by the Registrant to the full extent authorized by the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act, all as more fully set forth in the By-laws filed as an exhibit to this registration statement.

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Any indemnification hereunder shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which the trustees, officers, employees or agents might otherwise be entitled. No indemnification shall be made in violation of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Item 31. Business and Other Connections of the Investment Adviser

To the knowledge of the Registrant, none of the directors or officers of Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (Columbia Management), the Registrant’s investment adviser, except as set forth below, are or have been, at any time during the Registrant’s past two fiscal years, engaged in any other business, profession, vocation or employment of a substantial nature.

Columbia Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc., performs investment advisory services for the Registrant and certain other clients. Information regarding the business of Columbia Management and the directors and principal officers of Columbia Management is also included in the Form ADV filed by Columbia Management with the SEC pursuant to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (File No. 801-25943), which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition to their position with Columbia Management, certain directors and officers of Columbia Management also hold various positions with, and engage in business for, Ameriprise Financial, Inc. or its other subsidiaries. Prior to May 1, 2010, when Ameriprise Financial, Inc. acquired the long-term asset management business of Columbia Management Group, LLC from Bank of America, N.A., certain current directors and officers held various positions with, and engaged in business for, Columbia Management Group, LLC or other direct or indirect subsidiaries of Bank of America Corporation.
