Fact Sheet

The securities are senior unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley, will pay no interest, provide for a minimum payment amount at maturity of only 90% of principal at maturity and have the terms described in the accompanying prospectus supplement for equity-linked securities and prospectus, as supplemented and modified by this pricing supplement. At maturity, an investor will receive for each stated principal amount of securities that the investor holds an amount in cash that may be more, equal to or less than the stated principal amount based on the performance of the underlying index.

Investors may lose up to 10% of the stated principal amount of the securities. The securities are senior notes issued as part of Morgan Stanley’s Series F Global Medium-Term Notes program. All payments on the securities, including the payment of the minimum payment amount at maturity, are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

General Information
Listing:	The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.
CUSIP:	617482NP5
ISIN:	US617482NP53
Minimum ticketing size:	$1,000 / 1 security
Tax considerations:	The securities should be treated as “contingent payment debt instruments” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as described in the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders.” Under this treatment, if you are a U.S. taxable investor, you generally will be subject to annual income tax based on the “comparable yield” (as defined in the accompanying prospectus supplement) of the securities, even though no interest is payable on the securities. In addition, any gain recognized by U.S. taxable investors on the sale or exchange, or at maturity, of the securities generally will be treated as ordinary income. We have determined that the “comparable yield” for the securities is a rate of 3.4247% per annum, compounded semi-annually. Based on the comparable yield set forth above, the “projected payment schedule” for a security (assuming an issue price of $1,000) consists of a single projected amount equal to $1,185.1360 due at maturity. You should read the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus supplement concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities.
	The following table states the amount of original issue discount (“OID”) (without taking into account any adjustment to reflect the difference, if any, between the actual and the projected amount of the contingent payment on a security) that will be deemed to have accrued with respect to a security for each accrual period (assuming a day count convention of 30 days per month and 360 days per year), based upon the comparable yield set forth above.

ACCRUAL PERIOD	OID DEEMED TO ACCRUE DURING ACCRUAL PERIOD (PER SECURITY)	TOTAL OID DEEMED TO HAVE ACCRUED FROM ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE (PER SECURITY) AS OF END OF ACCRUAL PERIOD
Original Issue Date through December 31, 2010	$8.7520	$8.7520
January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2011	$17.2734	$26.0254
July 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011	$17.5691	$43.5945
January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012	$17.8700	$61.4645
July 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012	$18.1760	$79.6405
January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013	$18.4872	$98.1277
July 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013	$18.8038	$116.9315
January 1, 2014 through June 30, 2014	$19.1258	$136.0573
July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014	$19.4533	$155.5106
January 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015	$19.7864	$175.2970
July 1, 2015 through the Maturity Date	$9.8390	$185.1360

	The comparable yield and the projected payment schedule are not provided for any purpose other than the determination of U.S. Holders’ accruals of OID and adjustments in respect of the securities, and we make no representation regarding the actual amount of the payment that will be made on a security.
	If you are a non-U.S. investor, please also read the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation — Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders.”
	You should consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.
Trustee:	The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor Trustee to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.)
Use of proceeds and hedging:	The net proceeds we receive from the sale of the securities will be used for general corporate purposes and, in part, in connection with hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our subsidiaries. We, through our subsidiaries or others, expect to hedge our anticipated exposure in connection with the securities by taking positions in the stocks constituting the underlying index, in futures or options contracts on the underlying index or its component stocks, or in any other available securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging. Such purchase activity could adversely affect the value of the underlying index, and therefore, the payment that you will receive at maturity. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus supplement for equity-linked securities.
Benefit plan investor considerations:	Each fiduciary of a pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) (a “Plan”), should consider the fiduciary standards of ERISA in the context of the Plan’s particular circumstances before authorizing an investment in the securities.

September 2010 Page 3

●
Equity-Linked Securities due September 28, 2015
Based on the Value of the MSCI AC World Index SM

Accordingly, among other factors, the fiduciary should consider whether the investment would satisfy the prudence and diversification requirements of ERISA and would be consistent with the documents and instruments governing the Plan. In addition, we and certain of our subsidiaries and affiliates, including MS & Co., may be considered a “party in interest” within the meaning of ERISA, or a “disqualified person” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), with respect to many Plans, as well as many individual retirement accounts and Keogh plans (also “Plans”). ERISA Section 406 and Code Section 4975 generally prohibit transactions between Plans and parties in interest or disqualified persons. Prohibited transactions within the meaning of ERISA or the Code would likely arise, for example, if the securities are acquired by or with the assets of a Plan with respect to which MS & Co. or any of its affiliates is a service provider or other party in interest, unless the securities are acquired pursuant to an exemption from the “prohibited transaction” rules. A violation of these “prohibited transaction” rules could result in an excise tax or other liabilities under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code for such persons, unless exemptive relief is available under an applicable statutory or administrative exemption. The U.S. Department of Labor has issued five prohibited transaction class exemptions (“PTCEs”) that may provide exemptive relief for direct or indirect prohibited transactions resulting from the purchase or holding of the securities. Those class exemptions are PTCE 96-23 (for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), PTCE 95-60 (for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 91-38 (for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 90-1 (for certain transactions involving insurance company separate accounts) and PTCE 84-14 (for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers). In addition, ERISA Section 408(b)(17) and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code may provide an exemption for the purchase and sale of securities and the related lending transactions, provided that neither the issuer of the securities nor any of its affiliates has or exercises any discretionary authority or control or renders any investment advice with respect to the assets of the Plan involved in the transaction and provided further that the Plan pays no more, and receives no less, than “adequate consideration” in connection with the transaction (the so-called “service provider” exemption). There can be no assurance that any of these class or statutory exemptions will be available with respect to transactions involving the securities. Because we may be considered a party in interest with respect to many Plans, the securities may not be purchased, held or disposed of by any Plan, any entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of any Plan’s investment in the entity (a “Plan Asset Entity”) or any person investing “plan assets” of any Plan, unless such purchase, holding or disposition is eligible for exemptive relief, including relief available under PTCEs 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1, 84-14 or the service provider exemption or such purchase, holding or disposition is otherwise not prohibited. Any purchaser, including any fiduciary purchasing on behalf of a Plan, transferee or holder of the securities will be deemed to have represented, in its corporate and its fiduciary capacity, by its purchase and holding of the securities that either (a) it is not a Plan or a Plan Asset Entity and is not purchasing such securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan or with any assets of a governmental, non-U.S. or church plan that is subject to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. law that is substantially similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) or (b) its purchase, holding and disposition are eligible for exemptive relief or such purchase, holding and disposition are not prohibited by ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law. Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties that may be imposed upon persons involved in non-exempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that fiduciaries or other persons considering purchasing the securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan consult with their counsel regarding the availability of exemptive relief. Each purchaser and holder of the securities has exclusive responsibility for ensuring that its purchase, holding and disposition of the securities do not violate the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA or the Code or any Similar Law. The sale of any securities to any Plan or plan subject to Similar Law is in no respect a representation by us or any of our affiliates or representatives that such an investment meets all relevant legal requirements with respect to investments by plans generally or any particular plan, or that such an investment is appropriate for plans generally or any particular plan. However, individual retirement accounts, individual retirement annuities and Keogh plans, as well as employee benefit plans that permit participants to direct the investment of their accounts, will not be permitted to purchase or hold the securities if the account, plan or annuity is for the benefit of an employee of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (“MSSB”) or a family member and the employee receives any compensation (such as, for example, an addition to bonus) based on the purchase of the securities by the account, plan or annuity.

Additional considerations:

Client accounts over which Citigroup Inc., Morgan Stanley, MSSB or any of their respective subsidiaries have investment discretion are not permitted to purchase the securities, either directly or indirectly.

How the Securities Work

The payoff diagram below illustrates the payment at maturity on the securities based on the following terms:

Stated principal amount:	$1,000 per security
Participation rate:	91.25%
Minimum payment amount	$900 per security (90% of the stated principal amount)

Payoff Diagram

¡ If the final index value is greater than the initial index value, investors would receive the $1,000 stated principal amount plus the supplemental redemption amount.

o If the underlying index appreciates 20%, investors would receive a 18.25% return, or $1,182.50 per security.

¡ If the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value, investors would receive an amount less than (or equal to) the $1,000 stated principal amount, based on a 1% loss of principal for each 1% decrease in the underlying index, subject to the minimum payment amount of $900 per security.

o If the underlying index depreciates 8%, investors would lose 8% of their principal and receive only $920 per security at maturity, or 92% of the stated principal amount.

o If the underlying index depreciates 50%, investors would receive the minimum payment amount of $900 per security.

Payment at Maturity

At maturity, investors will receive for each $1,000 stated principal amount of securities that they hold, an amount in cash based on the performance of the underlying index on the determination date, determined as follows:

If the final index value is greater than the initial index value , investors will receive for each $1,000 stated principal amount of securities that they hold a payment at maturity equal to:

$1,000 + supplemental redemption amount,

where,

supplemental redemption amount = $1,000 × index percent change × participation rate

and

index percent change
initial index value

and

participation rate = 91.25%

If the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value , investors will receive for each $1,000 stated principal amount of securities that they hold a payment at maturity equal to:

$1,000
initial index value

subject to the minimum payment amount of $900, or 90% of the stated principal amount of $1,000 for each security.

Because the final index value will be less than or equal to the initial index value in this case, the payment at maturity will be less than or equal to $1,000, subject to the minimum payment amount of $900 per security.

Risk Factors

The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the securities. For further discussion of these and other risks you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying prospectus supplement for equity-linked securities and the accompanying prospectus. You should also consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the securities.

¡ The securities do not pay interest and provide for a minimum payment amount of only 90% of principal. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not pay interest and provide for a minimum payment amount of only 90% of the principal at maturity. If the underlying index has depreciated on the determination date, the payout at maturity will be an amount in cash that is less than the $1,000 stated principal amount of each security by an amount proportionate to the decrease in the value of the underlying index, subject to the minimum payment amount of $900 per security (90% of the stated principal amount).

¡ The return on the securities is limited to 91.25% of the appreciation of the underlying index. The supplemental redemption amount you may receive at maturity represents a 91.25% participation in the appreciation of the underlying index, if any, and accordingly you will not participate fully in the appreciation of the underlying index. As a result, if the underlying index appreciates, your return on the securities will be less than the amount that you would realize on a direct investment in the underlying index or an alternate investment that provides a full exposure to the appreciation of the underlying index.

¡ Market price of the securities will be influenced by many unpredictable factors. Several factors will influence the value of the securities in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to purchase or sell the securities in the secondary market, including the value of the underlying index at any time and, in particular, on the determination date, the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the underlying index, dividend rate on the stocks underlying the index, interest and yield rates in the market, time remaining until the securities mature, geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying index or equities markets generally and which may affect the final index value of the underlying index and any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads. The value of the underlying index may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. See “Historical Information” on page 12. You may receive less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount per security if you try to sell your securities prior to maturity.

¡ The securities are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley, and any actual or anticipated changes to its credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the securities. You are dependent on Morgan Stanley’s ability to pay all amounts due on the securities at maturity and therefore you are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley. The securities are not guaranteed by any other entity. If Morgan Stanley defaults on its obligations under the securities, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the securities prior to maturity will be affected by changes in the market’s view of Morgan Stanley’s creditworthiness. Any actual or anticipated decline in Morgan Stanley’s credit ratings or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking Morgan Stanley credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the securities.

¡ The inclusion of commissions and projected profit from hedging in the original issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which MS & Co. is willing to purchase the securities at any time in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the original issue price, since secondary market prices are likely to exclude commissions paid with respect to the securities and the cost of hedging our obligations under the securities that are included in the original issue price. The cost of hedging includes the projected profit that our subsidiaries may realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging transactions. These secondary market prices are also likely to be reduced by the cost of unwinding the related hedging transactions. Our subsidiaries may realize a profit from the expected hedging activity even if investors do not receive a favorable investment return under the terms of the securities or in any secondary market transaction. In addition, any secondary market prices may differ from values determined by pricing models used by MS & Co., as a result of dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transaction costs.

September 2010 Page 8

Equity-Linked Securities due September 28, 2015
Based on the Value of the MSCI AC World Index SM

¡ Adjustments to the underlying index could adversely affect the value of the securities. The publisher of the underlying index can add, delete or substitute the stocks underlying the index, and can make other methodological changes required by certain events relating to the underlying stocks, such as stock dividends, stock splits, spin-offs, rights offerings and extraordinary dividends, that could change the value of the underlying index. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of the securities. The publisher of the underlying index may also discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of the underlying index at any time. In these circumstances, MS & Co., as the calculation agent, will have the sole discretion to substitute a successor index that is comparable to the discontinued index. MS & Co. could have an economic interest that is different than that of investors in the securities insofar as, for example, MS & Co. is permitted to consider indices that are calculated and published by MS & Co. or any of its affiliates. If MS & Co. determines that there is no appropriate successor index on the determination date, the final index closing value will be an amount based on the stocks underlying the discontinued index at the time of such discontinuance, without rebalancing or substitution, computed by MS & Co, as calculation agent, in accordance with the formula for calculating the index closing value last in effect prior to discontinuance of the index.

¡ You have no shareholder rights. As an investor in the securities, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the stocks that underlie the index.

¡ There are risks associated with investments in securities linked to the value of foreign equity securities, and to emerging markets equity securities. The stocks included in the MSCI AC World Index and that are generally tracked by the underlying index have been issued by companies in 45 different countries, including 21 emerging markets countries. Investments in securities linked to the value of foreign equity securities involve risks associated with the securities markets in those countries, including risks of volatility in those markets, governmental intervention in those markets and cross-shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies than about U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and foreign companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. The prices of securities issued in foreign markets may be affected by political, economic, financial and social factors in those countries, or global regions, including changes in government, economic and fiscal policies and currency exchange laws. Countries with emerging markets may have relatively unstable governments, may present the risks of nationalization of businesses, restrictions on foreign ownership and prohibitions on the repatriation of assets, and may have less protection of property rights than more developed countries. The economies of countries with emerging markets may be based on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions, and may suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens or inflation rates. Local securities markets may trade a small number of securities and may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of holdings difficult or impossible at times. Moreover, the economies in such countries may differ unfavorably from the economy in the United States in such respects as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources, self-sufficiency and balance of payment positions.

¡ The price of the underlying index is subject to currency exchange risk. Because the price of the underlying index is related to the U.S. dollar value of stocks underlying the MSCI AC World Index, holders of the securities will be exposed to currency exchange rate risk with respect to each of the currencies in which such component securities trade. Exchange rate movements for a particular currency are volatile and are the result of numerous factors including the supply of, and the demand for, those currencies, as well as relevant government policy, intervention or actions, but are also influenced significantly from time to time by political or economic developments, and by macroeconomic factors and speculative actions related to the relevant region. An investor’s net exposure will depend on the extent to which the currencies of the component securities strengthen or weaken against the U.S. dollar and the relative weight of each currency. If, taking into account such weighting, the dollar strengthens against the currencies of the component securities represented in the MSCI AC World Index, the price of the underlying index will be adversely affected and the payment at maturity on the securities may be reduced.

Of particular importance to potential currency exchange risk are:

· existing and expected rates of inflation;

· existing and expected interest rate levels;

· the balance of payments; and

September 2010 Page 9

●
Equity-Linked Securities due September 28, 2015
Based on the Value of the MSCI AC World Index SM

· the extent of governmental surpluses or deficits in the countries represented in the MSCI AC World Index and the United States.

All of these factors are in turn sensitive to the monetary, fiscal and trade policies pursued by the governments of various countries represented in the MSCI AC World Index and the United States and other countries important to international trade and finance.

¡ Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index or its component stocks. See “Hypothetical Payout on the Securities” above.

¡ The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited. The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Because we do not expect that other broker-dealers will participate significantly in the secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which MS & Co. is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS & Co. were not to make a market in the securities, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the securities. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities to maturity.

¡ The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of the issuer, will make determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MS & Co. will determine the final index value and will calculate the amount of cash you will receive at maturity. Determinations made by MS & Co. in its capacity as calculation agent, including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events and the selection of a successor index or calculation of the index closing value in the event of a discontinuance of the underlying index or a market disruption event, may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity.

¡ Hedging and trading activity by our subsidiaries could potentially adversely affect the value of the securities. One or more of our subsidiaries expect to carry out hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the underlying index or its component stocks), including trading in the component stocks of the underlying index and in other instruments related to the underlying index. Some of our subsidiaries also trade the component stocks of the underlying index and other financial instruments related to the underlying index on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities, including on the determination date, could adversely affect the closing value of the underlying index on the determination date and, accordingly, the amount of cash an investor will receive at maturity.
