The vote is virtually assured given the Sponsor's 21.5% committed 'FOR' vote. The key swing factor is the redemption rate — if redemptions materially exceed initial expectations, post-deal cash could be meaningfully reduced, impairing the combined company's balance sheet. Monitor redemption requests before the June 25 deadline. Post-closing, the stock listing on NYSE under 'SECZ' and the business's ability to grow revenue while controlling losses on a public-company cost structure will drive price action.

Executive Summary
CEPT (Cantor Equity Partners II, a SPAC) filed a definitive proxy/prospectus for a shareholder vote on its business combination with Securitize, a blockchain-based tokenization platform. Shareholders will receive shares of new public company PubCo (expected ticker 'SECZ') and have redemption rights at ~$10.51/share. The deal includes a $225M PIPE at $10/share, and Securitize stockholders will own ~69% of the combined company. The CEPT Board unanimously recommends approval but did not obtain a fairness opinion.

Risk Factors
