Prospectus/Proxy Statement
Please Vote Today!
Federated Treasury Cash Series II
(a portfolio of Cash Trust Series II)
Time is of the essence. Voting only takes a few minutes and your participation is important! We recommend that you read the enclosed Prospectus/Proxy Statement in its entirety; the explanation will help you decide on the vote.
Thank you in advance for your vote and your continued support of the Federated Funds.
Federated Treasury Cash Series II (TCSII) will hold a special meeting of shareholders on September 9, 2014. Please refer to the enclosed Prospectus/Proxy Statement as well as the highlighted information below for details on the proposal.
Why am I being asked to vote?
Certain mutual funds are required to obtain shareholders' votes for certain types of events, like the one described here and in the accompanying Prospectus/Proxy Statement. As a shareholder, you have a right to vote on these events, and we urge you to do so. A prompt response will save the expense of additional follow-up mailings and solicitations.
What is the proposal?
The proposal is to reorganize TCSII into Federated Treasury Obligations Fund (TOF) (the “Reorganization”).
Why has the Board of Trustees recommended that I vote in favor of the proposal?
The Board of Trustees of TCSII, including a majority of the “independent” trustees (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) recommends you vote in favor of the proposal because it believes that the Reorganization is in the best interests of TCSII and its shareholders and that the interests of existing shareholders will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.
After the Reorganization, shareholders of TCSII will be invested in a fund with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies, lower gross and net expenses and increased purchasing power in the marketplace.
Please see the section entitled “Summary—Reasons for the Proposed Reorganization” in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement for more information.
How will the Reorganization affect my investment?
The cash value of your investment will not change as a result of the Reorganization and you will not have to pay any sales charge in connection with the transfer of your assets.
Under the plan, TCSII will transfer all or substantially all of its assets to TOF, in exchange for Trust Shares of TOF. Trust Shares of TOF will be distributed pro rata by TCSII to its shareholders in complete liquidation and termination of TCSII. As a result of the Reorganization, each shareholder of TCSII will become the shareholder of Trust Shares of TOF having a total net asset value (NAV) equal to the total NAV of the shareholder's holdings in TCSII on the date of the Reorganization.
    
If you own shares In: You will receive shares of:
TCSII Cash II Shares TOF Trust Shares
  
What are the tax consequences of the Reorganization?
The Reorganization is expected to be a tax-free reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
TCSII will distribute any undistributed income and realized capital gains accumulated prior to the Reorganization to its shareholders. These distributions, if any, will be taxable.
When will the Reorganization occur?
Assuming shareholder approval is obtained, the Reorganization is currently expected to occur after the close of business on or after September 19, 2014.

What are the costs associated with the Reorganization?
TCSII will pay the expenses associated with the Reorganization which are estimated to be $27,686; provided that TOF will pay registration fees with respect to securities issued pursuant to the Reorganization, on an as-incurred basis. Given the waiver positions of TCSII and TOF and the fact that TCSII and TOF are being operated at the applicable voluntary expense caps, the Adviser expects that the Adviser and its affiliates will indirectly pay the expenses that TCSII and TOF are being asked to pay.
Will my current account options transfer over to my new account?
Yes, these servicing features will transfer automatically to your TOF Trust Shares account. However, if you participate in a systematic investment program you will receive a communication requesting that you confirm your continued participation in such a plan.
What should I do in connection with the Reorganization?
Please vote your shares today. If the Reorganization is approved, your shares will automatically be exchanged for TOF Trust Shares. Please do not attempt to make the Reorganization exchange into TOF Trust Shares yourself.

This Prospectus/Proxy Statement describes the proposal for the reorganization (the “Reorganization”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”), of Federated Treasury Cash Series II (TCSII), with and into Federated Treasury Obligations Fund (TOF). Under the Plan, TCSII would transfer all or substantially all of its assets to TOF, in exchange for Trust Shares of TOF. TOF is expected to be the accounting survivor in the Reorganization. Trust Shares of TOF will be distributed pro rata by TCSII to its shareholders in complete liquidation and termination of TCSII. As a result of the Reorganization, each shareholder of TCSII will become the shareholder of TOF Trust Shares, having a total net asset value (NAV) equal to the total NAV of the shareholder's holdings in TCSII on the date of the Reorganization (the “Closing Date”). For purposes of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, TCSII and TOF may be referred to individually, as applicable, as a “Fund” and, collectively, as the “Funds.”
The Board of Trustees of Cash Trust Series II (the “Board”), including a majority of the “independent” trustees (as that term is defined under the 1940 Act) has determined that the Reorganization is in the best interests of TCSII, and that interests of the existing shareholders of TCSII will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization. The Board is recommending that shareholders of TCSII approve the Reorganization. Information on the rationale for the Reorganization is included in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement in the section entitled “Summary—Reasons for the Proposed Reorganization.”
The Reorganization is expected to be a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the ”Code”). For information on the tax consequences of the Reorganization, see the sections entitled “Summary—Tax Consequences” and “Information about the Reorganization—Federal Income Tax Consequences” in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
The investment objective of TCSII is to provide current income consistent with stability of principal and liquidity. The investment objective of TOF is to provide current income consistent with stability of principal. For a comparison of the investment objectives, policies, limitations and risks of TCSII with those of TOF, see the section entitled “Summary—Comparison of Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks” in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

SUMMARY
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the additional information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, or incorporated by reference into this Prospectus/Proxy Statement. A form of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) pursuant to which the Reorganization will be conducted is attached to this Prospectus/Proxy Statement as Annex A. The prospectus of TOF Trust Shares accompanies this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
If the proposal is approved, under the Plan, TCSII will transfer all, or substantially all, of its assets (except for deferred or prepaid expenses to the extent that they do not have a continuing value to TOF, and which are not expected to be material in amount; amounts reserved for payments of TCSII's liabilities; and any additional cash received by TCSII after the Closing Date in excess of accrued liabilities recorded on TCSII's books on or before the Closing Date that is retained by TCSII's Adviser) to TOF in exchange for Trust Shares of TOF. TCSII will be required to discharge all of its respective liabilities and obligations prior to consummation of the Reorganization. TOF is expected to be the accounting survivor of the Reorganization. TOF Trust Shares will be distributed pro rata by TCSII to its shareholders in complete liquidation and termination of TCSII. As a result of the Reorganization, each shareholder of TCSII's Cash II Shares will become the shareholder of Trust Shares of TOF having a total NAV equal to the total NAV of the shareholder's holdings in TCSII on the date of the Reorganization. After the liquidating distribution is made by TCSII, TCSII will have no shares outstanding. As soon as practicable after the liquidating distribution is made, TCSII will take steps to wind up its affairs.
The investment adviser for TCSII and TOF is Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”).
The Reorganization is expected to be a tax-free Reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As discussed in more detail in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, the investment objectives of TCSII and TOF are substantially similar as each of the Funds seeks to provide current income consistent with stability of principal. Each of the Funds is a money market fund subject to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. There are no material differences in the purchase, redemption or exchange rights and procedures, or the dividend and distribution policies of the Funds, which are also described below in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement. Also, the principal risks of the Funds are substantially similar. For more information on the comparison of the investment objectives, policies, and risks of TCSII and TOF, see the section entitled “Summary—Comparison of Investment Objectives, Policies, Limitations and Risks” in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement. More information concerning TOF's shares, as compared to TCSII's shares, is included in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement in the sections entitled “Summary—Procedures for Purchasing, Redeeming and Exchanging Shares,” “Summary—Comparative Fee Tables,” and “Information About the Reorganization—Description of TOF's Share Classes and Capitalization.” Shareholders should review this Prospectus/Proxy Statement carefully for further information on the Funds' investment objectives, policies and procedures as well as the tax consequences of the Reorganization and other considerations relating to the Funds and the Reorganization.
For more complete information, please read the Prospectuses of TCSII and TOF. The Prospectus for TOF Trust Shares accompanies this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION
The investment objective of TCSII is to provide current income consistent with stability of principal and liquidity. Similarly, TOF's investment objective is to provide current income consistent with stability of principal.
The Reorganization is being proposed to shareholders of TCSII because TCSII has experienced significant net outflows in recent years. As of February 28, 2014, the total net assets of TCSII and TOF were approximately $25.9 million and $24.1 billion, respectively. Given the asset levels of TCSII in comparison to TOF and the long-term stability of TOF's net asset level, the Adviser believes that the proposed Reorganization will result in TCSII's shareholders receiving shares in a fund with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies that: (i) is more viable; (ii) offers similar level of shareholder services combined with lower gross and net expenses; and (iii) offers increased purchasing power in the marketplace. If the Reorganization is not approved by the shareholders of TCSII, the Adviser will consider recommending the liquidation of TCSII.
The Board of Trustees of TCSII, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, has determined, pursuant to Rule 17a-8 of the 1940 Act, that participation in the Reorganization is in the best interests of TCSII and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of TCSII will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization. The Board of Trustees of TOF likewise has approved the Reorganization on behalf of TOF. Pursuant to Rule 17a-8 of the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees of TOF, including a majority of the trustees who are not “interested persons” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, has determined that the Reorganization is in the best interests of TOF and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing TOF shareholders will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.
1

In considering whether to approve the Reorganization and reaching the above conclusions, the Board of Trustees of each Fund took into consideration a number of factors, including:
The compatibility of TCSII's and TOF's investment objectives, policies, and limitations;
The lower gross and net expenses of TOF compared to the expenses of TCSII;
The greater long-term viability of TOF based on its larger asset size, comparable performance and relative stability of flows, compared to TCSII;
The fact that the Reorganization is expected to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes (and that the Funds will receive an opinion of counsel to this effect);
That TOF is expected to benefit from the increase in its assets resulting from the Reorganization, allowing it the opportunity for better buying leverage in the securities market and enhanced diversification; and
That there will be no dilution to shareholders in connection with the Reorganization, because each TCSII shareholder will become the owner of shares of TOF having a total net asset value equal to the total net asset value of his or her holdings in TCSII on the date of the Reorganization.
With respect to Reorganization-related expenses:
TOF will pay registration fees, with respect to securities issued pursuant to the Reorganization, on an as incurred basis;
TCSII will pay expenses associated with the Reorganization estimated at $27,686;
Given the waiver positions of TCSII and TOF and the fact that TCSII and TOF are being operated at the applicable voluntary expense caps, the Adviser expects that the Adviser and its affiliates will indirectly pay the expenses that TCSII and TOF are being asked to pay.
In sum, TCSII shareholders will be receiving shares in a fund that is more viable with lower gross and net expense ratios. TCSII shareholders also will be receiving shares of TOF in a Reorganization transaction that is intended to be tax-free and therefore will experience a more preferable tax result as compared to a liquidation of TCSII.
TOF will also benefit from the increase in its assets resulting from the Reorganization which will provide TOF shareholders with a fund that offers a larger asset size, better buying leverage in the securities market and enhanced diversification.
Given the above factors, the Adviser believes that the bulk of the benefits of the Reorganization favor TCSII and its shareholders, as opposed to the Adviser and its affiliates, and that, in this instance, the proposed allocation of expenses is reasonable and appropriate, and does not result in unfair dilution nor does it result in TCSII bearing the cost of a transaction where a greater benefit will accrue to another person (such as the Adviser and its affiliates). Based on the information and considerations described above and otherwise in the Prospectus/Proxy Statement, the Board has approved and is recommending that TCSII shareholders approve the Reorganization of TCSII into TOF.
TAX CONSEQUENCES
Tax-Free Reorganization Under The Code
As a condition to the Reorganization, each Fund will receive an opinion of counsel that the Reorganization will be considered a tax-free “reorganization” under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), so that no gain or loss will be recognized directly as a result of the Reorganization by either Fund or by TCSII's shareholders. The tax basis of the shares of TOF received by the TCSII shareholders will be the same as the tax basis of their shares in TCSII. Prior to the Reorganization TCSII will distribute to shareholders any previously undistributed ordinary income and net capital gains accumulated prior to the Reorganization. Any such distributions will be taxable to TCSII shareholders. For further discussion, see “Information About the Reorganization—Federal Income Tax Consequences.”
Distributions and the Treatment of Capital Loss Carryforwards and Realized Gains
As noted above, shareholders generally will not incur capital gains or losses on the exchange of shares of TCSII for shares of TOF as a result of the Reorganization. Shareholders will be responsible for tax obligations associated with monthly, periodic or other dividend or capital gains distributions that occur prior to and after the Reorganization.
2

For example, shareholders will be responsible for any taxes payable in connection with taxable distributions made, if any, by TCSII immediately prior to the Reorganization. These distributions may include capital gains realized on dispositions of portfolio securities in the ordinary course of business or in connection with the Reorganization. It is anticipated that TCSII will transfer most, if not all, of its portfolio to TOF pursuant to the Reorganization. As of the Closing Date, if any such dispositions of portfolio securities from the portfolio of TCSII result in TCSII having a net capital gain, such capital gain will be distributed to shareholders as a taxable distribution prior to the Reorganization being consummated. TCSII does not currently intend to sell any of its portfolio securities, other than in the ordinary course of business, prior to the Reorganization. Consequently, because TCSII anticipates transferring most, if not all, of its securities to TOF pursuant to the Reorganization, brokerage costs incurred in connection with the Reorganization and the repositioning of TCSII's portfolio are expected to be minimal or non-existent.
As of April 16, 2014, TCSII had estimated year-to-date realized gains of approximately $396, and total unrealized gains of approximately $617. TCSII did not have any capital loss carryforwards as of May 31, 2013, its last fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available. As of April 16, 2014, TOF had estimated year-to-date realized gains of approximately $74,075, and total unrealized gains of approximately $758,033. TOF did not have any capital loss carryforwards as of July 31, 2013, its last fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available.
Shareholders of TCSII should consult their tax advisors regarding the federal, state and local tax treatment and implications of the Reorganization in light of their individual circumstances.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF TCSII UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE REORGANIZATION.
COMPARISON OF INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND RISKS
This section will help you compare the investment objectives, policies and risks of the Funds. The investment objectives, policies and risks of the Funds are substantially similar. TCSII and TOF are both treasury funds, with similar objectives and strategies. Both TCSII and TOF are assigned to the iMoneyNet MFR Treasury and Repo Institutional peer group.
The differences in the Funds' investment limitations are also discussed below. Please be aware that the foregoing is only a summary, and this section is only a brief discussion. More complete information may be found in each Fund's prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The investment objective of TCSII is to provide current income consistent with stability of principal and liquidity. The investment objective of TOF is to provide current income consistent with stability of principal. Each Fund is a money market fund that seeks to maintain a stable NAV of $1.00 per share.
There is no guarantee that either Fund's investment objectives will be achieved. Each Fund invests primarily in a portfolio of U.S. Treasury securities maturing in 397 days or less. These investments include repurchase agreements collateralized fully by U.S. Treasury securities.
The Adviser targets a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity (DWAM) range for each portfolio based upon its interest rate outlook. The Adviser formulates its interest rate outlook by analyzing a variety of factors, such as:
current U.S. economic activity and the economic outlook;
current short-term interest rates;
the Federal Reserve Board's policies regarding short-term interest rates; and
the potential effects of foreign economic activity on U.S. short-term interest rates.
The Adviser generally shortens each portfolio's DWAM when it expects interest rates to rise and extends the DWAM when it expects interest rates to fall. This strategy seeks to enhance the returns from favorable interest rate changes and reduce the effect of unfavorable changes. The Adviser selects securities used to shorten or extend each portfolio's DWAM by comparing the returns currently offered by different investments to their historical and expected returns.
3

Each Fund will: (1) maintain a DWAM of 60 days or less; and (2) maintain a weighted average life (WAL) of 120 days or less. Certain of the securities in which each Fund invests may pay interest at a rate that is periodically adjusted (“Adjustable Rate Securities”). For purposes of calculating DWAM, the maturity of an Adjustable Rate Security generally will be the period remaining until its next interest rate adjustment. For purposes of calculating WAL, the maturity of an Adjustable Rate Security will be its stated final maturity, without regard to interest rate adjustments; accordingly, the 120-day WAL limitation could serve to limit a Fund's ability to invest in Adjustable Rate Securities.
Because both TCSII and TOF refer to Treasury investments in their name, the SEC requires each Fund to notify shareholders at least 60 days in advance of any change in its investment policies that would enable the Fund to normally invest less than 80% of its assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in Treasury investments.
TEMPORARY CASH POSITIONS
Each Fund may temporarily depart from its principal investment strategies by holding cash. It may do this in response to unusual circumstances, such as: adverse market, economic or other conditions (for example, during periods when there is a shortage of appropriate securities); to maintain liquidity to meet shareholder redemptions; or to accommodate cash inflows. Such temporary cash positions could affect the Fund's investment returns and/or the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective.
COMPARISON OF RISKS
Because each Fund has substantially similar investment objectives and policies, their principal risks are also substantially similar. All mutual funds take investment risks. Therefore, even though the Funds are money market funds that seek to maintain a stable NAV, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Funds. An investment in the Funds is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. Although each Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Funds.
The primary factors that may negatively impact each Fund's ability to maintain a stable NAV, delay the payment of redemptions by the Fund, or reduce each Fund's daily dividends include:
Interest Rate Risk. Prices of U.S. Treasury securities generally fall when interest rates rise. Interest rate changes have a greater effect on the price of U.S. Treasury securities with longer maturities.
Counterparty Credit Risk. A party to a transaction involving the Fund may fail to meet its obligations. This could cause the Fund to lose money or to lose the benefit of the transaction or prevent the Fund from selling or buying other securities to implement its investment strategies.
Risk Associated with use of Amortized Cost. In the unlikely event that the Fund's Board of Trustees were to determine, pursuant to Rule 2a-7, that the extent of the deviation between the Fund's amortized cost per Share and its market-based NAV per Share may result in material dilution or other unfair results to shareholders, the Board will cause the Fund to take such action as it deems appropriate to eliminate or reduce to the extent practicable such dilution or unfair results.
Risk Associated with Investing Share Purchase Proceeds. On days during which there are net purchases of Fund Shares, the Fund must invest the proceeds at prevailing market yields or hold cash. If the Fund holds cash, or if the yield of the securities purchased is less than that of the securities already in the portfolio, the Fund's yield will likely decrease. Conversely, net purchases on days on which short-term yields rise will likely cause the Fund's yield to increase. In the event of significant changes in short-term yields or significant net purchases, the Fund retains the discretion to close to new investments. However, the Fund is not required to close, and no assurance can be given that this will be done in any given circumstance.
Additional Factors Affecting Yield. There is no guarantee that the Fund will provide a certain level of income or that any such income will exceed the rate of inflation. Further, the Fund's yield will vary.
Technology Risk. The Adviser uses various technologies in managing the Fund, consistent with its investment objective and strategy described in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement. For example, proprietary and third-party data and systems are utilized to support decision making for the Fund. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems, which may negatively affect Fund performance.

COMPARISON OF INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
Each Fund has fundamental investment limitations which cannot be changed without shareholder approval. Each Fund also has non-fundamental investment limitations which may be changed by the relevant Fund's Board without shareholder approval.
The fundamental investment limitations of the Funds are substantially the same; however, there are differences in the fundamental limitations regarding Diversification. The following chart compares the fundamental and non-fundamental limitations of TCSII and TOF:
TCSII TOF
Diversification (Fundamental)
The Fund is a “diversified company” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, as amended, and any rules, regulations or interpretations thereunder.
Diversification (Fundamental)
With respect to securities comprising 75% of the value of its total assets, the Fund will not purchase securities of any one issuer (other than cash; cash items; securities issued or guaranteed by the government of the United States or its agencies or instrumentalities and repurchase agreements collateralized by such U.S. government securities; and securities of other investment companies) if, as a result, more than 5% of the value of its total assets would be invested in securities of that issuer, or the Fund would own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer.
Issuing Senior Securities and Borrowing Money (Fundamental)
The Fund may borrow money, directly or indirectly, and issue senior securities to the maximum extent permitted under the 1940 Act.
Borrowing Money and Issuing Senior Securities (Fundamental)
Same
Investing in Real Estate (Fundamental)
The Fund may not purchase or sell real estate, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from investing in issuers which invest, deal or otherwise engage in transactions in real estate or interests therein, or investing in securities that are secured by real estate or interests therein. The Fund may exercise its rights under agreements relating to such securities, including the right to enforce security interests and to hold real estate acquired by reason of such enforcement until that real estate can be liquidated in an orderly manner.
Investing in Real Estate (Fundamental)
Same
Investing in Commodities (Fundamental)
The Fund may not purchase or sell physical commodities, provided that the Fund may purchase securities of companies that deal in commodities.
Investing in Commodities (Fundamental)
Same.

Underwriting (Fundamental)
Same
Lending Cash or Securities (Fundamental)
The Fund may not make loans, provided that this restriction does not prevent the Fund from purchasing debt obligations, entering into repurchase agreements, lending its assets to broker/dealers or institutional investors and investing in loans, including assignments and participation interests.
Lending (Fundamental)
Same
Concentration (Fundamental)
The Fund will not make investments that will result in the concentration of its investments in the securities of issuers primarily engaged in the same industry. Government securities, municipal securities and bank instruments will not be deemed to constitute an industry.
Concentration (Fundamental)
Same
Illiquid Securities (Non-Fundamental)
The Fund will not acquire securities that cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the value ascribed to them by the Fund if, immediately after the acquisition, the Fund would have invested more than 5% of its total assets in such securities.
Illiquid Securities (Non-Fundamental)
Same
Pledging Assets (Non-Fundamental)
The Fund will not mortgage, pledge, or hypothecate any of its assets, provided that this shall not apply to the transfer of securities in connection with any permissible borrowing or to collateral arrangements in connection with permissible activities.
Pledging Assets (Non-Fundamental)
Same
5

TCSII TOF
Purchases on Margin (Non-Fundamental)
The Fund will not purchase securities on margin, provided that the Fund may obtain short-term credits necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities.
Purchases on Margin (Non-Fundamental)
Same.
Names Rule Policy (Non-Fundamental) Names Rule Policy (Non-Fundamental)
Because the Fund refers to Treasury investments in its name, the SEC requires the Fund to notify shareholders at least 60 days in advance of any change in its investment policies that would enable the Fund to normally invest less than 80% of its assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in Treasury investments. Same
Certain Explanatory Language
Both TCSII and TOF include the following explanatory language concerning their fundamental and non-fundamental limitations:
Except with respect to borrowing money, if a percentage limitation is adhered to at the time of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from any change in value or net assets will not result in a violation of such limitation.
TCSII and TOF have the following policy related to Regulatory Compliance:
The Fund may follow non-fundamental operational policies that are more restrictive than its fundamental investment limitations, as set forth in the applicable Prospectus and SAI, in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including the provisions of and regulations under the 1940 Act. In particular, the Fund will comply with the various requirements of Rule 2a-7, which regulates money market mutual funds. The Fund may change these operational policies to reflect changes in the laws and regulations without the approval of its shareholders.
PROCEDURES FOR PURCHASING, REDEEMING AND EXCHANGING SHARES
The procedures for purchasing, redeeming and exchanging shares of TCSII are substantially similar to those for purchasing, redeeming and exchanging shares of TOF. See the section entitled “Purchase, Redemption and Exchange Procedures” below for more information regarding these procedures.
COMPARATIVE FEE TABLES
Like all mutual funds, each Fund incurs certain expenses in its operations. These expenses include management fees, as well as the cost of maintaining accounts, administration, providing shareholder liaison and distribution services and other activities.
You will not pay any sales charges in connection with the Reorganization.
Set forth in the tables below is information regarding the fees and expenses incurred by Trust Shares of TOF and Cash II Shares of TCSII, and the anticipated pro forma fees for the Trust Shares of TOF after giving effect to the Reorganization.

ADVISORY FEES, SERVICE FEES, SHAREHOLDER FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES
TCSII and TOF pay certain affiliated and non-affiliated service providers fees as described below. The Funds and their affiliated service providers may also pay fees as described below to certain affiliates or to financial intermediaries (such as broker-dealers, banks, investment advisers or third-party administrators) whose customers are shareholders of the Funds. For additional information regarding the fees paid by the Funds, please see the section entitled “Summary—Comparative Fee Tables” in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
Investment Advisory Fees
TOF's investment advisory contract provides for payment to the Adviser of an annual investment advisory fee of 0.20% of TOF's average daily net assets. The Adviser may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee or reimburse TOF for certain operating expenses. The Adviser and its affiliates have also agreed to certain “Fee Limits” as described in the footnote to the “Fees and Example” tables found in the “Comparative Fee Tables” section of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
In comparison, TCSII's investment advisory contract provides for payment to the Adviser of an annual investment advisory fee of 0.50% of TCSII's average daily net assets. The Adviser may voluntarily waive a portion of its fee or reimburse TCSII for certain operating expenses. The Adviser and its affiliates have also agreed to certain “Fee Limits” as described in the footnote to the “Fees and Example” tables found in the “Comparative Fee Tables” section of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
A discussion of the Board's review of each Fund's investment advisory contract is available in each Fund's shareholder reports as they are produced. The relevant TOF semi-annual report is dated January 31, 2014. The relevant TCSII semi-annual report is dated November 30, 2013.
Administrative Fees
Federated Administrative Services (“FAS”), an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as administrator to both TCSII and TOF and provides certain administrative personnel and services as necessary. FAS provides these services at an annual rate based on the average aggregate daily net assets of each Fund and most of the other Federated funds advised by the Adviser or its affiliates. The rate charged by FAS is based on a scale that ranges from 0.150% on the first $5 billion of average aggregate daily net assets to 0.075% on assets over $20 billion.
Each Fund and its affiliated service providers may pay fees as described below to financial intermediaries (such as broker-dealers, banks, investment advisers or third-party administrators) whose customers are shareholders of the Fund.
Service Fees
TOF is a party to a Shareholder Services Agreement under which it may make payments of up to 0.25% of average daily net assets to financial intermediaries, or to Federated Shareholder Services Company, a subsidiary of Federated, for providing services to shareholders and maintaining shareholder accounts. Intermediaries that receive Service Fees may include companies affiliated with management of Federated. If a financial intermediary receives Service Fees on an account it is not eligible to also receive Account Administration Fees on the same account.
Rule 12b-1 Fees
Federated Securities Corp. (“FSC” or the “Distributor”), an affiliate of the Adviser, is the principal distributor for shares of both Funds. TCSII's Cash II Shares have a 12b-1 fee of up to 0.20% while TOF's Trust Shares have a 12b-1 fee of up to 0.25% of average net assets to FSC for the sale, distribution, administration and customer servicing of Fund shares. When FSC receives Rule 12b-1 Fees, it may pay some or all of them to financial intermediaries whose customers purchase shares.
10

Account Administration Fees
TOF may pay Account Administration Fees of up to 0.25% of average net assets to banks that are not registered as broker-dealers or investment advisers for providing administrative services to TOF and its shareholders. If a financial intermediary receives Account Administration Fees on an account, it is not eligible to also receive Service Fees or Recordkeeping Fees on that same account.
Recordkeeping Fees
Each Fund may pay Recordkeeping Fees on an average-net assets basis or on a per account per year basis to financial intermediaries for providing recordkeeping services to the Fund's shareholders. If a financial intermediary receives Recordkeeping Fees on an account, it is not eligible to also receive Account Administration Fees or Networking Fees on that same account.
Networking Fees
Each Fund may reimburse Networking Fees on a per account per year basis to financial intermediaries for providing administrative services to the Fund and shareholders on certain non-omnibus accounts. If a financial intermediary receives Networking Fees on an account, it is not eligible to also receive Recordkeeping Fees on that same account.
Additional Payments To Financial Intermediaries
The Distributor may pay out of its own resources amounts (including items of material value) to certain financial intermediaries that support the sale of Shares or provide services to Fund shareholders. The amounts of these payments could be significant, and may create an incentive for the financial intermediary or its employees or associated persons to recommend or sell Shares of a Fund to you. In some cases, such payments may be made by or funded from the resources of companies affiliated with the Distributor (including the Adviser). These payments are not reflected in the fees and expenses listed in the fee table section of the relevant Fund's prospectus and described above because they are not paid by the Fund.
These payments are negotiated and may be based on such factors as the number or value of Shares that the financial intermediary sells or may sell; the value of client assets invested; or the type and nature of services or support furnished by the financial intermediary. These payments may be in addition to payments, as described above, made by the Fund to the financial intermediary. In connection with these payments, the financial intermediary may elevate the prominence or profile of the Fund and/or other Federated funds within the financial intermediary's organization by, for example, placement on a list of preferred or recommended funds, and/or granting the Distributor preferential or enhanced opportunities to promote the funds in various ways within the financial intermediary's organization. You can ask your financial intermediary for information about any payments it receives from the Distributor or the Fund and any services provided.
PURCHASE, REDEMPTION AND EXCHANGE PROCEDURES; DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS; TAX INFORMATION; FREQUENT TRADING; PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS DISCLOSURE POLICIES
The transfer agent and dividend-disbursing agent for each Fund is State Street Bank and Trust Company. Procedures for the purchase, redemption and exchange of TCSII's Cash II Shares are substantially similar to those applicable to the purchase, redemption and exchange of TOF's Trust Shares. Reference is made to the Prospectuses of TCSII and TOF Trust Shares, dated July 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, respectively, each of which is incorporated herein by reference, for a complete description of the purchase, redemption and exchange procedures applicable to purchases, redemptions and exchanges of TCSII's Cash II Shares and TOF's Trust Shares. Set forth below is a brief description of the significant purchase, redemption and exchange procedures applicable to the Funds' shares.
Purchases
Both TCSII and TOF attempt to stabilize the NAV of their Shares at $1.00 by valuing the portfolio securities using the amortized cost method. In addition, for regulatory purposes, the Funds calculate a market-based NAV per Share on a periodic basis. The Funds cannot guarantee that their respective NAVs will always remain at $1.00 per Share. The Funds do not charge a front-end sales charge.
You can purchase, redeem or exchange Shares any day the NYSE is open (a “Regular Business Day”). You may also be able to purchase and redeem (but not exchange) Shares on certain days that the NYSE is closed on an unscheduled basis due to unforeseen or emergency circumstances, if a Fund's Board determines to allow Fund Share transactions on such days (a “Special Trading Day”). If a Fund declares a Special Trading Day, information regarding shareholder trading activities for the Special Trading Day (such as when NAV, and entitlement to that day's dividend, will be determined) will be available by calling a Fund at 1-800-341-7400 and will be posted on Federated's website at FederatedInvestors.com. The information set forth each Fund's Prospectus regarding times relevant to NAV determination and dividend entitlement
11

applies only to Regular Business Days. Please note that the times that might be specified for NAV determination and dividend entitlement on a Special Trading Day would not necessarily be the same as set forth in each Fund's Prospectus with respect to Regular Business Days. Although Federated will attempt to make such information available in advance of a particular Special Trading Day, given the nature of Special Trading Days, it may not be able to do so until the morning of the Special Trading Day.
When a Fund receives your transaction request in proper form (as described in each Prospectus), it is processed at the next determined NAV. NAV for TOF is determined at 8:00 a.m., 9:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., 1:00 p.m., 2:00 p.m., 3:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. Eastern time each day the NYSE is open; except that on the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve (when Christmas Eve falls on a weekday) the last NAV will be determined at 3:00 p.m. Eastern time. NAV for TCSII is determined at 3:00 p.m. Eastern time and as of the end of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 Eastern time) each day the NYSE is open. The times as of when NAV is determined, and when orders must be placed, may be changed as permitted by the SEC.
Purchases of both Funds may be made through a financial intermediary, directly from the Fund or through an exchange from another Federated Fund. Each Fund reserves the right to reject any request to purchase or exchange shares.
Shareholders of TCSII as of the Closing Date will not be subject to a minimum initial investment amount with respect to the TOF Trust Shares issued in connection with the Reorganization as of the Closing Date. Such shareholders will be subject to TOF's Accounts with Low Balances policy thereafter. There is no required minimum subsequent investment amount for TOF Trust Shares.
The required minimum initial investment for TCSII Cash II Shares is $25,000. The minimum subsequent investment amount is $500.
Federated reserves the right to close accounts if redemptions or exchanges cause the TOF Trust Shares account balance to fall below $500,000 ($25,000 for shareholders (or in the case of IRAs $250) who were converted as part of the merger of TCSII). Before an account is closed, you will be notified and allowed at least 30 days to purchase additional Shares to meet the minimum.
In addition, both Funds offer the following purchase options: (i) Shareholders may exchange shares of a Fund for shares of any Federated fund or share class that does not have a stated sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge, except Liberty U.S. Government Money Market Trust and Class R Shares. Shareholders must meet the minimum initial investment requirement for purchasing shares and both accounts must have identical registrations; (ii) shareholders may automatically purchase additional shares on a regular basis through the Systematic Investment Program; (iii) shareholders may purchase additional shares through a depository institution that is an Automated Clearing House member.
Redemptions and Exchanges
Redemptions and exchanges of each Fund may be made through a financial intermediary or directly from the Fund by telephone or by mailing a written request. Each Fund has an exchange privilege that allows shareholders to exchange shares of the Fund for shares of any Federated fund or share class that does not have a stated sales charge or contingent sales charge, except Federated Liberty U.S. Government Money Market Trust and Class R Shares. An exchange is treated as a redemption and subsequent purchase and is a taxable transaction. Each fund may modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time. The Funds reserve the right to reject any request to purchase shares.
Shares of each Fund also may be redeemed or exchanged on a regular basis using a systematic withdrawal/exchange program. The minimum amount for all new or revised systematic redemptions or exchanges of Shares is $50 per transaction per fund. The account value must meet the minimum initial investment amount at the time the program is established.
Distributions
TOF and TCSII declare any dividends daily and pay them monthly to shareholders. Dividends are based on estimates of income, expenses and shareholder activity for each Fund. Actual income, expenses and shareholder activity may differ from estimates and differences, if any, will be included in the calculation of subsequent dividends. You may obtain an estimate of a Fund's daily dividend factor by calling the Fund at 1-800-341-7400 or on Federated's website at FederatedInvestors.com.
From time to time, the Funds may realize capital gains or losses. If capital gains or losses were to occur, they could result in an increase or decrease in dividends. The Funds pay any capital gains at least annually and may make such special distributions of dividends and capital gains as may be necessary to meet applicable regulatory requirements. Your dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional Shares without a sales charge, unless you elect cash payments. Dividends may also be reinvested without sales charges in shares of any class of any other Federated fund of which you are already a shareholder.
12

If you have elected to receive dividends and/or capital gain distributions in cash and your check is returned by the postal or other delivery service as “undeliverable,” or you do not respond to mailings from Federated with regard to uncashed distribution checks, your distribution option will automatically be converted to having all dividends and capital gains reinvested in additional Shares. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.
Important information regarding a Fund's distributions, including the percentage of the Fund's distributions that are attributable to capital gains during the calendar year (if any), is available in the “Products” section of Federated's website at FederatedInvestors.com. To access this information from the home page, select “All” under “Asset Class.” Select the Fund name to go to the Fund Overview page, then select a share class, if applicable. On the Fund Overview page, select the “Distributions and Tax Info” tab. On the “Distributions and Tax Info” tab, select a year.
Tax Information
It is anticipated that each Fund's distributions will be primarily dividends. Each Fund's distributions are taxable to you whether paid in cash or reinvested, and are taxable at different rates depending on the source of the income, and with regard to capital gains, the length of time that the Fund held the sold assets.
Frequent Trading
Given the short-term nature of each Fund's investments and its use of the amortized cost method for calculating the NAV of Fund Shares, each Fund does not anticipate that in the normal case frequent or short-term trading into and out of each Fund will have significant adverse consequences for each Fund and its shareholders. For this reason and because each Fund is intended to be used as a liquid short-term investment, each Fund's Board has not adopted policies or procedures to monitor or discourage frequent or short-term trading of each Fund's Shares. Regardless of their frequency or short-term nature, purchases and redemptions of Fund Shares can have adverse effects on the management of each Fund's portfolio and its performance.
Other funds in the Federated family of funds may impose monitoring policies. Under normal market conditions, such monitoring policies are designed to protect the funds being monitored and their shareholders, and the operation of such policies and shareholder investments under such monitoring are not expected to have a materially adverse impact on the Federated funds or their shareholders.
Portfolio Holdings Disclosure Policies
Each Fund's Statement of Additional Information (SAI) contains a description of the Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of its portfolio securities. The SAIs are available on Federated's website at FederatedInvestors.com.
INFORMATION ABOUT THE REORGANIZATION
DESCRIPTION OF THE AGREEMENT AND THE PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
The Plan provides for the Reorganization to occur on or after the Closing Date, which is expected to be after the close of business on or after September 19, 2014. On the Closing Date, all, or substantially all, of the assets of TCSII (except for deferred or prepaid expenses to the extent that they do not have a continuing value to TOF, and which are not expected to be material in amount; amounts reserved for payments of TCSII's liabilities; and any additional cash received by TCSII after the Closing Date in excess of accrued liabilities recorded on TCSII's books on or before the Closing Date that is retained by TCSII's Adviser) will be transferred to TOF. In exchange for the transfer of these assets, TOF will simultaneously issue to TCSII a number of full and fractional Trust Shares of TOF equal in value to the of the Cash II Shares of TCSII calculated as of 4:00 p.m. on the Closing Date.
Both TCSII and TOF determine the value of portfolio instruments by amortized cost. Under the amortized cost valuation method, an investment is valued initially at its cost as determined in accordance with GAAP. Each Fund then adjusts the amount of interest income accrued each day over the term of the investment to account for any difference between the initial cost of the investment and the amount payable at its maturity. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, the value of the portfolio securities will be determined under procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Fund's Board of Trustees.
13

The value of TCSII's assets to be acquired by TOF shall be the value of such assets at the Closing on the Closing Date, after the declaration and payment of any dividends and/or other distributions on that date, using available market quotations (or an appropriate substitute that reflects current market conditions) in accordance with Rule 2a-7(c)(7)(ii)(A)(1) (i.e., amortized cost) and in accordance with the valuation procedures established under such rule by the Board of Trustees of TOF. TCSII and TOF utilize the same pricing services for securities valuation and the valuation procedures of TCSII and TOF are identical. Consequently, it currently is not anticipated that, under normal circumstances, the use of TOF's valuation procedures will result in any material revaluation of TCSII's assets at the time of the Reorganization.
TOF will be the accounting survivor of the Reorganization. TCSII will discharge all of its liabilities and obligations prior to consummation of the Reorganization. Following the transfer of its assets in exchange for Trust Shares of TOF, TCSII will distribute Trust Shares of TOF pro rata to TCSII shareholders of record in complete liquidation of TCSII. Shareholders of TCSII on the Closing Date of the Reorganization will receive that number of Trust Shares of TOF which have the same aggregate value as the shareholder had in Cash II Shares of TCSII immediately before the Reorganization. This distribution will be accomplished by the establishment of accounts in the names of TCSII's shareholders on the share records of TOF's transfer agent. TOF does not issue share certificates to shareholders. Following the consummation of the Reorganization, TCSII will then be dissolved.
The transfer of shareholder accounts from TCSII to TOF will occur automatically. It is not necessary for TCSII shareholders to take any action to effect the transfer. Please do not attempt to make the transfer yourself. If you do so, you may disrupt the management of the Funds' portfolios.
The Plan contains customary representations, warranties and conditions. The Plan provides that the consummation of the Reorganization is conditioned upon, among other things: (i) approval of the Reorganization by TCSII's shareholders; and (ii) the receipt by TCSII and TOF of an opinion to the effect that the Reorganization will be tax-free to TCSII, its shareholders and TOF. The Plan may be terminated if, before the Closing Date, any of the required conditions have not been met, the representations and warranties are not true or the applicable Board of Trustees determines that the Reorganization is not in the best interests of the shareholders of TCSII or TOF, respectively.
Cost of the Reorganization
TCSII and TOF will not bear any expenses associated with their participation in the Reorganization, except as contemplated in Article IX of the Plan and as summarized herein. TCSII will pay for the expenses of the Reorganization estimated to be approximately $27,686 and TOF will pay registration fees, with respect to securities issued pursuant to the Reorganization, on an as incurred basis. Reorganization expenses include, without limitation: (a) expenses associated with the preparation and filing of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement; (b) postage; printing; accounting fees; legal fees incurred by each Fund; (c) proxy solicitation costs; and other related administrative or operational costs. Given the waiver positions of TCSII and TOF and the fact that TCSII and TOF are being operated at the applicable voluntary expense caps, the Adviser expects that the Adviser and its affiliates will indirectly pay the expenses that TCSII and TOF are being asked to pay.
The foregoing brief summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by the terms and provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A and incorporated herein by reference.
DESCRIPTION OF TOF'S SHARE CLASSES AND CAPITALIZATION
The Trust Shares of TOF to be issued to the shareholders of TCSII's Cash II Shares under the Plan will be fully paid and non-assessable when issued, transferable without restriction and will have no preemptive or conversion rights. Reference is hereby made to the Prospectus of TOF Trust Shares provided herewith for additional information about Trust Shares of TOF.
The following table sets forth the unaudited capitalization of TCSII and TOF Trust Shares as of May 31, 2014 and on a pro forma combined basis after giving effect to the Reorganization as of that date.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
As a condition to the Reorganization, each Fund will receive an opinion of counsel to the effect that, on the basis of the existing provisions of the Code, current administrative rules and court decisions, for federal income tax purposes:
the Reorganization as set forth in the Plan will constitute a tax-free reorganization under section 368(a) of the Code, and TCSII and TOF each will be a “party to a reorganization” within the meaning of section 368(b) of the Code;
no gain or loss will be recognized by TOF upon its receipt of TCSII's assets in exchange for Trust Shares of TOF;
no gain or loss will be recognized by TCSII upon transfer of its assets to TOF solely in exchange for the Trust Shares of TOF or upon the distribution of TOF Trust Shares to TCSII's shareholders in exchange for their Cash II Shares;
no gain or loss will be recognized by shareholders of TCSII upon exchange of their TCSII Cash II Shares for TOF Trust Shares;
the tax basis of the assets of TCSII in the hands of TOF will be the same as the tax basis of such assets to TCSII immediately prior to the Reorganization;
the tax basis of TOF Trust Shares received by each shareholder of TCSII pursuant to the Reorganization will be the same as the tax basis of the Cash II Shares of TCSII held by such shareholder immediately prior to the Reorganization;
the holding period of TOF's Shares received by each shareholder of TCSII will include the period during which TCSII's Cash II Shares exchanged therefore were held by such shareholder, provided the Cash II Shares of TCSII were held as capital assets on the date of the Reorganization; and
the holding period of the assets of TCSII in the hands of TOF will include the period during which those assets were held by TCSII.
The opinion provided in connection with the Reorganization shall be based on customary assumptions and such representations as tax counsel may reasonably request and each Fund will cooperate to make and certify the accuracy of such representations. The opinion may state that no opinion is expressed as to the effect of the Reorganization on TCSII, TOF or any shareholder of TCSII with respect to any asset as to which unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized for federal income tax purposes at the end of a taxable year (or on the termination or transfer thereof) under a mark-to-market system of accounting. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the requirement that the above-described opinion be provided in connection with the Reorganization cannot be waived by either Fund.
Opinions of counsel are not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service or the courts. If the Reorganization is consummated but does not qualify as a tax-free reorganization under the Code, a shareholder of TCSII would recognize a taxable gain or loss to the extent that there is a difference between his or her tax basis in his or her TCSII Cash II Shares and the fair market value of TOF Trust Shares received in exchange therefore.
TCSII may dispose of portfolio securities in the ordinary course of business, prior to the Reorganization (which may result in the realization of capital gains). Before the Reorganization, TCSII will distribute any undistributed income and realized capital gains to shareholders. Any such distributions will be taxable to shareholders.
See the discussion entitled “Summary—Tax Consequences” in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement for further information regarding the tax consequences of the Reorganization. Shareholders of TCSII should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of the Reorganization in light of their individual circumstances. In addition, because the foregoing discussion only relates to the federal income tax consequences of the Reorganization, those shareholders also should consult their tax advisors about state and local tax consequences, if any, of the Reorganization.

CATEGORY SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS TCSII SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS TOF
Personal Liability of Shareholders Under certain circumstances, shareholders may be held personally liable as partners under Massachusetts law for obligations of the Trust. To protect its shareholders, the Trust has filed legal documents with Massachusetts that expressly disclaim the liability of its shareholders for acts or obligations of the Trust.
In the unlikely event a shareholder is held personally liable for the Trust's obligations, the Trust is required by the Declaration of Trust to use its property to protect (or indemnify) or reimburse the shareholder. On request, the Trust will defend any claim made and pay any judgment against a shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust. Therefore, financial loss resulting from liability as a shareholder will occur only if the Trust itself cannot meet its obligations to indemnify shareholders and pay judgments against them.

ABOUT THE PROXY SOLICITATION AND THE SPECIAL MEETING
Proxies are being solicited by the Board of TCSII. The proxies will be voted at the special meeting of shareholders of TCSII to be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on September 9, 2014, at 4000 Ericsson Drive, Warrendale, PA 15086-7561 (such special meeting and any adjournment or postponement hereof are referred to as the “Special Meeting”). Proxy materials including this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, the Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders and the form of proxy are available online at the website listed on your proxy card(s).
The cost of the solicitation, including the printing and mailing of proxy materials, will be borne by TCSII or its affiliates. In addition to solicitations through the mail, proxies may be solicited by officers, employees and agents of the Adviser or its affiliates, or, if necessary, the communications firm Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., retained for this purpose. Such solicitations may be by telephone, through the Internet or otherwise. Any telephonic solicitations will follow procedures designed to ensure accuracy and prevent fraud, including requiring identifying shareholder information, recording the shareholder's instructions and confirming to the shareholders after the fact. Shareholders who communicate proxies by telephone or by other electronic means have the same power and authority to issue, revoke, or otherwise change their voting instructions as shareholders submitting proxies in written form. The Adviser may reimburse custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for the reasonable costs incurred by them in connection with forwarding solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of shares held of record by such persons.
The purpose of the Special Meeting is set forth in the accompanying Notice. The Board knows of no business other than that mentioned in the Notice that will be presented for consideration at the Special Meeting. Should other business properly be brought before the Special Meeting, proxies will be voted in accordance with the best judgment of the persons named as proxies. This Prospectus/Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card are expected to be mailed on or about August 4, 2014, to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 11, 2014 (the “Record Date”).
TCSII's Annual Report, which includes audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013, was previously mailed to shareholders of TCSII. TOF's Annual Report, which includes audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013, was previously mailed to shareholders of TOF. TCSII and TOF will promptly provide, without charge and upon request, to each person to whom this Prospectus/Proxy Statement is delivered a copy of their Annual Report, which may be requested by writing to the Funds' principal executive offices or by calling the Fund. The principal executive office of each Fund is located at 4000 Ericsson Drive, Warrendale, PA 15086-7561. This document, as well as additional information about the Funds (including portfolio holdings, performance, and distributions), is also available on the website for each Fund. The website for each Fund is www.FederatedInvestors.com. The toll-free telephone number for both Funds is 1-800-341-7400. You may obtain directions on how to attend the special meeting of shareholders by calling 1-800-341-7400.
PROXIES, QUORUM AND VOTING AT THE SPECIAL MEETING
Only shareholders of record on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Each Share of TCSII is entitled to one vote. Fractional shares are entitled to proportionate shares of one vote. The votes of shareholders of TOF are not being solicited since their approval is not required in order to effect the Reorganization.
Any person giving a proxy has the power to revoke it at any time prior to its exercise by executing a superseding proxy or by submitting a written notice of revocation to the Secretary of CTSII. In addition, although mere attendance at the Special Meeting will not revoke a proxy, a shareholder present at the Special Meeting may withdraw his or her proxy by voting in person. All properly executed and unrevoked proxies received in time for the Special Meeting will be voted in accordance with the instructions contained in the proxies. If no instruction is given on the submitted proxy, the persons named as proxies will vote the shares represented thereby in favor of approval of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization.
In order to hold the Special Meeting, a “quorum” of shareholders of TCSII must be present. Holders of more than fifty percent of the total number of outstanding Shares entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy, shall be required to constitute a quorum for the purpose of voting on the proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and for the purpose of transacting any other business which may come before the meeting. Approval of the Reorganization requires the affirmative vote of “a majority of the outstanding securities” as defined in the 1940 Act. This vote requires the lesser of (A) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of TCSII or (B) 67% or more of the voting securities of TCSII present at the Special Meeting if shareholders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy.
18

Shares represented by a properly executed proxy will be voted in accordance with the instructions on the proxy, or, if no instructions are provided, the shares will be voted in FAVOR of the approval of the Reorganization. For purposes of determining a quorum for transacting business at the Special Meeting, abstentions and broker “non-votes” (that is, proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present but which have not been voted. For this reason, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a “no” note for the purposes of obtaining the requisite approval of the proposal.
If a quorum is not present, the persons named as proxies may vote those proxies that have been received to adjourn the Special Meeting from time to time to be held at the same place without further notice than by announcement to be given at the special meeting until a quorum shall be present. In the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes in favor of the proposal have not been received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting to permit further solicitations of proxies with respect to the proposal. If a quorum is achieved and a majority of shareholders vote against the proposal, the Reorganization will not occur and the Board will consider alternatives such as liquidating TCSII. All such adjournments will require the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present in person or by proxy at the session of the Special Meeting to be adjourned. The persons named as proxies will vote AGAINST an adjournment those proxies that they are required to vote against the proposal, and will vote in FAVOR of such an adjournment all other proxies that they are authorized to vote. A shareholder vote may be taken on the proposal in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement prior to any such adjournment if sufficient votes have been received for approval.
Federated's Investment in TCSII
In order to satisfy any applicable quorum requirements for the Special Meeting, Federated Investors, Inc., or one of its subsidiaries will invest an initial minimum of at least $25,000 in TCSII prior to the Record Date; Federated will subsequently make additional investments in TCSII prior to the Record Date such that Federated's total investment in TCSII equals up to 50% of the then-current assets of TCSII (the “Federated Investment”). Federated plans to make the Federated Investment to ensure that a quorum can be achieved for the Special Meeting and that 50% of outstanding voting shares will be present and available for a vote. Obtaining the required quorum and vote on the Reorganization without the Federated Investment may otherwise prove difficult given that a high percentage of TCSII is held by sweep platforms, which makes it very difficult to obtain a proxy vote due to the challenge in obtaining votes from the underlying shareholders through intermediaries. Federated currently expects (but will not be obligated) to redeem its investment after the Record Date pro rata based on the level of other Fund shareholder redemptions.
Federated will “shadow vote” the shares acquired through the Federated Investment. Shadow voting involves voting in proportion to the percentage of favorable and unfavorable votes cast by the Fund's other shareholders. Federated will shadow vote its shares immediately prior to the Special Meeting based on the percentage of favorable and unfavorable votes cast at that time. If the vote is not obtained, the Special Meeting will be adjourned until the required vote is achieved.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the “Agreement”) is made as of this ____ day of _____________, 2014 by and between MONEY MARKET OBLIGATIONS TRUST, a Massachusetts business trust, with its principal place of business at 4000 Ericsson Drive, Warrendale, PA 15086-7561 (the “Acquiring Fund Registrant”), on behalf of its series, FEDERATED TREASURY OBLIGATIONS FUND (the “Acquiring Fund”), and CASH TRUST SERIES II, a Massachusetts business trust, with its principal place of business at 4000 Ericsson Drive, Warrendale, PA 15086-7561 (the “Acquired Fund Registrant”), on behalf of FEDERATED TREASURY CASH SERIES II (“Acquired Fund” and, collectively with the Acquiring Fund, the “Funds”).
This Agreement is intended to be, and is adopted as, a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The reorganization will consist of: (i) the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Acquired Fund (which offers Cash II Shares) (the “Acquired Fund Shares”) in exchange solely for Trust Shares of the Acquiring Fund (“Acquiring Fund Shares”); and (ii) the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the holders of the outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund; and (iii) the liquidation and dissolution of the Acquired Fund as provided herein, all upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (the “Reorganization”).
WHEREAS, the Acquiring Fund Registrant and Acquired Fund Registrant are open-end, registered management investment companies, and the Acquired Fund owns securities that generally are assets of the character in which the Acquiring Fund is permitted to invest;
WHEREAS, the Funds are authorized to issue their shares of beneficial interests;
WHEREAS, the Trustees of the Acquiring Fund Registrant have determined that the Reorganization, with respect to the Acquiring Fund, is in the best interests of the Acquiring Fund and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquiring Fund will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization;
WHEREAS, the Trustees of the Acquired Fund Registrant have determined that the Reorganization, with respect to the Acquired Fund, is in the best interests of the Acquired Fund and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquired Fund will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
TRANSFER OF ASSETS OF THE ACQUIRED FUND IN EXCHANGE FOR ACQUIRING FUND
SHARES AND LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION OF THE ACQUIRED FUND
1.1 THE EXCHANGE. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees to transfer all or substantially all of its assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Acquiring Fund. In exchange, the Acquiring Fund agrees to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of full and fractional shares of Acquiring Fund Shares, determined by multiplying (a) the shares outstanding of the Acquired Fund Shares, by (b) the ratio computed by dividing (x) the net asset value per share of the Acquired Fund Shares by (y) the net asset value per share of the Acquiring Fund Shares computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2. Holders of the Acquired Fund Shares will receive the Acquiring Fund Shares in redemption of their Acquired Fund Shares. Such transactions shall take place at the closing on the Closing Date provided for in paragraph 3.1.
1.2 ASSETS TO BE ACQUIRED. The assets of the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall consist of property having a value equal to the total net assets of the Acquired Fund, including, without limitation, cash, securities, commodities, interests in futures and dividends or interest receivable, owned by the Acquired Fund. The assets to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall not include any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the Closing Date, to the extent that they do not have continuing value to the Acquiring Fund.
The Acquired Fund has provided the Acquiring Fund with its most recent audited financial statements, which contain a list of all of the Acquired Fund's assets as of the date of such statements. The Acquired Fund hereby represents that as of the date of the execution of this Agreement, there have been no changes in its financial position as reflected in such financial statements other than those occurring in the ordinary course of business in connection with the purchase and sale of securities, the issuance and redemption of Acquired Fund Shares and the payment of normal operating expenses, dividends and capital gains distributions.
A-1

The Reorganization is to occur on or after the close of business on the Closing Date, which is expected to be on or after September 19, 2014. On the Closing Date, substantially all of the assets of the Acquired Fund (except for deferred or prepaid expenses, and amounts reserved for payment of Acquired Fund liabilities and any additional cash received by the Acquired Fund after the Closing Date in excess of accrued liabilities recorded on the Acquired Fund's books on or before the Closing Date that is retained by the Acquired Fund's adviser) will be acquired by the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for shares of the Acquiring Fund equal in value to the aggregate NAV of the Institutional Shares, Service Shares and Capital Shares of the Acquired Fund, as applicable, calculated as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the Closing Date.

The holding period of Acquiring Fund Shares received by each Acquired Fund Shareholder will include the period during which the Acquired Fund Shares exchanged therefor were held by such shareholder, provided the Acquired Fund Shares are held as capital assets at the time of the Reorganization.
(f) The tax basis of the Acquired Fund's assets acquired by the Acquiring Fund will be the same as the tax basis of such assets to the Acquired Fund immediately prior to the Reorganization. The holding period of the assets of the Acquired Fund in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will include the period during which those assets were held by the Acquired Fund.
(g) Such opinion shall be based on customary assumptions and such representations as Reed Smith LLP may reasonably request, and the Acquired Fund and Acquiring Fund will cooperate to make and certify the accuracy of such representations. The foregoing opinion may state that no opinion is expressed as to the effect of the Reorganization on the Acquiring Fund, the Acquired Fund or any Acquired Fund Shareholder with respect to any asset as to which unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized for federal income tax purposes at the end of a taxable year (or on the termination or transfer thereof) under a mark-to-market system of accounting. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Acquiring Fund nor the Acquired Fund may waive the conditions set forth in this paragraph 8.5.
ARTICLE IX
EXPENSES
The Acquired Fund will pay all expenses associated with the Acquired Fund's and Acquiring Fund's participation in the Reorganization, provided, however, that the Acquiring Fund shall bear expenses associated with the qualification of Acquiring Fund Shares for sale in the various states. Reorganization expenses include, without limitation: (a) expenses associated with the preparation and filing of the Proxy Materials; (b) postage; (c) printing; (d) accounting fees; (e) legal fees incurred by each Fund; (f) solicitation costs of the transaction; and (g) other related administrative or operational costs.

PART C. OTHER INFORMATION.

Item 15 Indemnification

Indemnification is provided to Trustees and officers of the Registrant pursuant to the Registrant's Declaration of Trust and Bylaws, except where such indemnification is not permitted by law. However, the Declaration of Trust and Bylaws do not protect the Trustees or officers from liability based on willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of their office. Trustees and officers of the Registrant are insured against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to Trustees, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Declaration of Trust 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 Trustees, officers, or controlling persons of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense of any act, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such Trustees, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the shares 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.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities may be permitted pursuant to Section 17 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Trustees, officers, or controlling persons of the Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Declaration of Trust or otherwise, the Registrant is aware of the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission as set forth in Investment Company Act Release No. IC-11330. Therefore, the Registrant undertakes that in addition to complying with the applicable provisions of the Declaration of Trust or otherwise, in the absence of a final decision on the merits by a court or other body before which the proceeding was brought, that an indemnification payment will not be made unless in the absence of such a decision, a reasonable determination based upon factual review has been made (i) by a majority vote of a quorum of non-party Trustees who are not interested persons of the Registrant or (ii) by independent legal counsel in a written opinion that the indemnitee was not liable for an act of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of duties. The Registrant further undertakes that advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of a proceeding (upon undertaking for repayment unless it is ultimately determined that indemnification is appropriate) against an officer, Trustee, or controlling person of the Registrant will not be made absent the fulfillment of at least one of the following conditions: (i) the indemnitee provides security for his undertaking; (ii) the Registrant is insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances; or (iii) a majority of a quorum of disinterested non-party Trustees or independent legal counsel in a written opinion makes a factual determination that there is reason to believe the indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification.
