Dual Directional Trigger PLUS due December 5, 2018

Based on the Performance of the Common Stock of Apple Inc.

Principal at Risk Securities

Unlike ordinary debt securities, the Trigger PLUS do not pay interest and do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity. Instead, at maturity, you will receive for each $10 stated principal amount of Trigger PLUS that you hold an amount in cash based upon the performance of the common stock of Apple Inc., which we refer to as Apple Stock. At maturity, if Apple Stock has appreciated in value, you will receive the stated principal amount of your investment plus leveraged upside performance of Apple Stock, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. If Apple Stock has depreciated in value but by no more than 20%, you will receive the stated principal amount of your investment plus a positive return equal to the absolute value of the percentage decline. However, if Apple Stock has depreciated by more than 20%, you will be negatively exposed to the full amount of the percentage decline in Apple Stock and will lose 1% of the stated principal amount for every 1% of decline, without any buffer. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than 80% of the stated principal amount and could be zero. Accordingly, you may lose your entire investment. The Trigger PLUS are for investors who seek a common stock-based return and who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and upside above the maximum payment at maturity in exchange for the upside leverage and absolute return features that in each case apply to a limited range of performance of Apple Stock and the limited protection against loss that applies only if the final share price is greater than or equal to the trigger level. The Trigger PLUS are notes issued as part of Morgan Stanley’s Series F Global Medium-Term Notes program.

All payments are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley. If Morgan Stanley defaults on its obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment. These Trigger PLUS are not secured obligations and you will not have any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets.

Investment Summary

Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities

The Dual Directional Trigger PLUS due December 5, 2018 Based on the Performance of the Common Stock of Apple Inc. (the “Trigger PLUS”) can be used:

§ As an alternative to direct exposure to Apple Stock that enhances returns for any positive performance of Apple Stock, subject to the maximum payment at maturity.

§ To obtain an unleveraged positive return for a limited range of negative performance of Apple Stock.

§ To potentially outperform Apple Stock in a moderately bullish or moderately bearish scenario.

Maturity: Approximately 2 years
Leverage factor: 150% (applicable only if the final share price is greater than the initial share price)
Maximum payment at maturity: $12.41 per Trigger PLUS (124.10% of the stated principal amount)
Minimum payment at maturity: None. Investors may lose their entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS.
Trigger level: 80% of the initial share price
Coupon: None
Listing: The Trigger PLUS will not be listed on any securities exchange

All payments on the Trigger PLUS are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

The original issue price of each Trigger PLUS includes costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS on the pricing date will be less than $10. We estimate that the value of each Trigger PLUS on the pricing date will be approximately $9.613, or within $0.15 of that estimate. Our estimate of the value of the Trigger PLUS as determined on the pricing date will be set forth in the final pricing supplement.

What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?

In valuing the Trigger PLUS on the pricing date, we take into account that the Trigger PLUS comprise both a debt component and a performance-based component linked to the basket stocks. The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the basket stocks, instruments based on the basket stocks, volatility and other factors including current and expected interest rates, as well as an interest rate related to our secondary market credit spread, which is the implied interest rate at which our conventional fixed rate debt trades in the secondary market.

What determines the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS?

In determining the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS, including the leverage factor, the trigger level and the maximum payment at maturity, we use an internal funding rate, which is likely to be lower than our secondary market credit spreads and therefore advantageous to us. If the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by you were lower or if the internal funding rate were higher, one or more of the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS would be more favorable to you.

What is the relationship between the estimated value on the pricing date and the secondary market price of the Trigger PLUS?

The price at which MS & Co. purchases the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the basket stocks, may vary from, and be lower than, the estimated value on the pricing date, because the secondary market price takes into account our secondary market credit spread as well as the bid-offer spread that MS & Co. would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type and other factors. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the basket stocks, and to our secondary market credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the estimated value. We expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements.

Key Investment Rationale

The Trigger PLUS offer the potential for a positive return at maturity based on the absolute value of a limited range of percentage changes of Apple Stock. At maturity, if Apple Stock has appreciated in value, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside performance of the assets, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. If Apple Stock has depreciated in value but by no more than 20%, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus an unleveraged positive return equal to the absolute value of the percentage decline. However, if Apple Stock has depreciated by more than 20%, investors will be negatively exposed to the full amount of the percentage decline in Apple Stock and will lose 1% of the stated principal amount for every 1% of decline, without any buffer. Investors may lose their entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. All payments on the Trigger PLUS are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

Leveraged Upside Performance The Trigger PLUS offer investors an opportunity to capture enhanced returns relative to a direct investment in Apple Stock within a certain range of positive performance.
Absolute Return Feature The Trigger PLUS enable investors to obtain an unleveraged positive return if the final share price is less than or equal to the initial share price but is greater than or equal to the trigger level.
Upside Scenario if Apple Stock Appreciates The final share price is greater than the initial share price and, at maturity, you receive a full return of principal as well as 150% of the increase in the value of Apple Stock, subject to a maximum payment at maturity of $12.41 per Trigger PLUS (124.10% of the stated principal amount). For example, if the final share price is 10% greater than the initial share price, the Trigger PLUS will provide a total return of 15% at maturity.
Absolute Return Scenario The final share price is less than or equal to the initial share price but is greater than or equal to the trigger level, which is 80% of the initial share price. In this case, you receive a 1% positive return on the Trigger PLUS for each 1% negative return on Apple Stock. For example, if the final share price is 10% less than the initial share price, the Trigger PLUS will provide a total positive return of 10% at maturity.
Downside Scenario The final share price is less than the trigger level. In this case, the Trigger PLUS redeem for at least 20% less than the stated principal amount and this decrease will be by an amount proportionate to the decline in the value of Apple Stock on the valuation date. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than $8.00 per Trigger PLUS. For example, if the final share price is 30% less than the initial share price, the Trigger PLUS will be redeemed at maturity for a loss of 30% of principal at $7, or 70% of the stated principal amount. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS, and you could lose your entire investment.

How it works

§ Upside Scenario if Apple Stock Appreciates. If the final share price is greater than the initial share price, the investor would receive the $10 stated principal amount plus 150% of the appreciation of Apple Stock over the term of the Trigger PLUS, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. Under the terms of the Trigger PLUS, an investor will realize the maximum payment at maturity of $12.41 per Trigger PLUS (124.10% of the stated principal amount) at a final share price of approximately 116.07% of the initial share price.

§ If Apple Stock appreciates 10%, the investor would receive a 15% return, or $11.50 per Trigger PLUS.

§ If Apple Stock appreciates 60%, the investor would receive only a 24.10% return, or $12.41 per Trigger PLUS, due to the maximum payment at maturity.

§ Absolute Return Scenario. If the final share price is less than or equal to the initial share price and is greater than or equal to the trigger level of 80% of the initial share price, the investor would receive a 1% positive return on the Trigger PLUS for each 1% negative return on Apple Stock.

§ If Apple Stock depreciates 10%, the investor would receive a 10% return, or $11.00 per Trigger PLUS.

§ Downside Scenario. If the final share price is less than the trigger level of 80% of the initial share price, the investor would receive an amount less than the $10 stated principal amount, based on a 1% loss of principal for each 1% decline in Apple Stock. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than $8.00 per Trigger PLUS. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS.

§ If Apple Stock depreciates 30%, the investor would lose 30% of the investor’s principal and receive only $7 per Trigger PLUS at maturity, or 70% of the stated principal amount.

Risk Factors

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

§ The Trigger PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee the return of any principal at maturity. The terms of the Trigger PLUS differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the Trigger PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee the payment of any of the principal amount at maturity. If the final share price is less than the trigger level (which is 80% of the initial share price), the absolute return feature will no longer be available and the payout at maturity will be an amount in cash that is at least 20% less than the $10 stated principal amount of each Trigger PLUS, and this decrease will be by an amount proportionate to the full amount of the decline in the closing price of Apple Stock, without any buffer. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS, and you could lose your entire investment. See “How the Trigger PLUS Work” on page 4.

§ Your appreciation potential is limited. The appreciation potential of the Trigger PLUS is limited by the maximum payment at maturity of $12.41 per Trigger PLUS, or 124.10% of the stated principal amount. Although the leverage factor provides 150% exposure to any increase in the final share price over the initial share price, because the payment at maturity will be limited to 124.10% of the stated principal amount for the Trigger PLUS, any increase in the final share price over the initial share price by more than approximately 16.07% of the initial share price will not further increase the return on the Trigger PLUS. See “How the Trigger PLUS Work” on page 4.

§ The market price of the Trigger PLUS may be influenced by many unpredictable factors. Several factors, many of which are beyond our control, will influence the value of the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to purchase or sell the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, including:

o the market price of Apple Stock at any time;

o the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in price) of Apple Stock;

o geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect Apple Stock or stock markets generally and which may affect Apple and the price of Apple Stock;

o interest and yield rates in the market;

o the dividend rate on Apple Stock, if any;

o the time remaining until the Trigger PLUS mature;

o the occurrence of certain events affecting Apple Stock that may or may not require an adjustment to the adjustment factor; and

o any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads.

The price of Apple Stock may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. You may receive less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount per Trigger PLUS if you try to sell your Trigger PLUS prior to maturity.

Some or all of these factors will influence the price that you will receive if you sell your Trigger PLUS prior to maturity. For example, you may have to sell your Trigger PLUS at a substantial discount from the stated principal amount of $10 per Trigger PLUS if the closing prices of Apple Stock at the time of sale is near or below 80% of its closing price on the pricing date, or if market interest rates rise. You cannot predict the future performance of Apple Stock based on its historical performance. There can be no assurance that the final share price will be equal to or greater than the trigger level such that you will not suffer a significant loss on your initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS and you could lose your entire investment. In addition, there can be no assurance that the final share price will not increase beyond approximately 116.07% of the initial share price, in which case you will receive only the maximum payment at maturity. Although the leverage factor provides 150% exposure to any increase in the price of Apple Stock above the initial share price, because the payment at maturity will be limited to 124.10% of the stated principal amount for the Trigger PLUS, any increase in the final share price over the initial share price by more than approximately 16.07% of the initial share price will not further increase the return on the Trigger PLUS.

§ The Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS. You are dependent on Morgan Stanley’s ability to pay all amounts due on the Trigger PLUS at maturity and therefore you are subject to the credit risk of Morgan

Field: Page; Sequence: 6

November 2016 Page 6

Dual Directional Trigger PLUS due December 5, 2018 Based on the Common Stock of Apple Inc.

Principal at Risk Securities

Field: /Page

Stanley. If Morgan Stanley defaults on its obligations under the Trigger PLUS, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS.

§ The amount payable on the Trigger PLUS is not linked to the price of Apple Stock at any time other than the valuation date. The final share price will be the closing price of Apple Stock on the valuation date. Even if the price of Apple Stock appreciates prior to the valuation date but then drops by the valuation date, the payment at maturity may be less, and may be significantly less, than it would have been had the payment at maturity been linked to the price of Apple Stock prior to such drop. Although the actual price of Apple Stock on the stated maturity date or at other times during the term of the Trigger PLUS may be higher than the final share price, the payment at maturity will be based solely on the closing price of Apple Stock on the valuation date.

§ Morgan Stanley is not affiliated with Apple, Inc. Apple, Inc., which we refer to as Apple, is not an affiliate of ours and is not involved with this offering in any way. Consequently, we have no ability to control the actions of Apple, including any corporate actions of the type that would require the calculation agent to adjust the payout to you at maturity. Apple has no obligation to consider your interests as an investor in the Trigger PLUS in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your Trigger PLUS. None of the money you pay for the Trigger PLUS will go to Apple.

§ Morgan Stanley may engage in business with or involving Apple without regard to your interests. We or our affiliates may presently or from time to time engage in business with Apple without regard to your interests, including extending loans to, or making equity investments in, Apple or its affiliates or subsidiaries or providing advisory services to Apple, such as merger and acquisition advisory services. In the course of our business, we or our affiliates may acquire non-public information about Apple. Neither we nor any of our affiliates undertakes to disclose any such information to you. In addition, we or our affiliates from time to time have published and in the future may publish research reports with respect to Apple Stock. These research reports may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold Apple Stock.

§ Investing in the Trigger PLUS is not equivalent to investing in Apple Stock. Investing in the Trigger PLUS is not equivalent to investing in Apple Stock. As an investor in the Trigger PLUS, you will not have voting rights or the right to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to Apple Stock.

§ The Trigger PLUS may come to be based on the closing prices of the common stocks of companies other than Apple. Following certain corporate events relating to Apple Stock, such as a merger event where holders of Apple Stock would receive all or a substantial portion of their consideration in cash or a significant cash dividend or distribution of property with respect to Apple Stock, you will receive at maturity an amount based on the closing prices of the common stocks of three companies in the same industry group as Apple in lieu of, or in addition to, Apple Stock. Following certain other corporate events, such as a stock-for-stock merger where Apple is not the surviving entity, you will receive at maturity an amount based on the closing price of the common stock of a successor corporation to Apple. We describe the specific corporate events that can lead to these adjustments and the procedures for selecting those other reference stocks in the section of the accompanying pricing supplement called “Description of Trigger PLUS—Antidilution Adjustments.” The occurrence of such corporate events and the consequent adjustments may materially and adversely affect the market price of the Trigger PLUS.

§ The rate we are willing to pay for securities of this type, maturity and issuance size is likely to be lower than the rate implied by our secondary market credit spreads and advantageous to us. Both the lower rate and the inclusion of costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS, cause the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS to be less than the original issue price and will adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the prices, if any, at which dealers, including MS & Co., may be willing to purchase the Trigger PLUS in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the original issue price, because secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the original issue price and borne by you and because the secondary market prices will reflect our secondary market credit spreads and the bid-offer spread that any dealer would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type as well as other factors.

The inclusion of the costs of issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS in the original issue price and the lower rate we are willing to pay as issuer make the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS less favorable to you than they otherwise would be.

However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to Apple Stock, and to our secondary market

Field: Page; Sequence: 7

Field: /Page

credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the estimated value, and we expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements.

§ The estimated value of the Trigger PLUS is determined by reference to our pricing and valuation models, which may differ from those of other dealers and is not a maximum or minimum secondary market price. These pricing and valuation models are proprietary and rely in part on subjective views of certain market inputs and certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, because there is no market-standard way to value these types of securities, our models may yield a higher estimated value of the Trigger PLUS than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to value the Trigger PLUS. In addition, the estimated value on the pricing date does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which dealers, including MS & Co., would be willing to purchase your Trigger PLUS in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your Trigger PLUS at any time after the date of this document will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including our creditworthiness and changes in market conditions. See also “The market price of the Trigger PLUS may be influenced by many unpredictable factors” above.

§ The antidilution adjustments the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every corporate event that could affect Apple Stock. MS & Co., as calculation agent, will adjust the adjustment factor for certain events affecting Apple Stock, such as stock splits and stock dividends, and certain other corporate actions involving Apple Stock. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment for every corporate event or every distribution that could affect Apple Stock. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to adjust the adjustment factor, the market price of the Trigger PLUS may be materially and adversely affected. The determination by the calculation agent to adjust, or not to adjust, the adjustment factor may materially and adversely affect the market price of the Trigger PLUS.

§ The Trigger PLUS will not be listed and secondary trading may be limited. The Trigger PLUS will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the Trigger PLUS. MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the Trigger PLUS and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time. When it does make a market, it will generally do so for transactions of routine secondary market size at prices based on its estimate of the current value of the Trigger PLUS, taking into account its bid/offer spread, our credit spreads, market volatility, the notional size of the proposed sale, the cost of unwinding any related hedging positions, the time remaining to maturity and the likelihood that it will be able to resell the Trigger PLUS. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Trigger PLUS easily. Since other broker-dealers may not participate significantly in the secondary market for the Trigger PLUS, the price at which you may be able to trade your Trigger PLUS is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which MS & Co. is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS & Co. were to cease making a market in the Trigger PLUS, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the Trigger PLUS. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your Trigger PLUS to maturity.

§ The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of the issuer, will make determinations with respect to the Trigger PLUS. As calculation agent, MS & Co. will determine the initial share price and the final share price, including whether the share price has decreased to below the trigger level, whether a market disruption event has occurred or any antidilution adjustment is required, and will calculate the amount of cash you will receive at maturity, if any. Moreover, certain determinations made by MS & Co., in its capacity as calculation agent, may require it to exercise discretion and make subjective judgments, such as with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events and the calculation of the final share price. These potentially subjective determinations may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity, if any. For further information regarding these types of determinations, see “Description of Trigger PLUS—Initial Share Price,” “—Final Share Price,” “—Valuation Date,” “—Closing Price,” “—Trading Day,” “—Calculation Agent,” “—Market Disruption Event,” “—Antidilution Adjustments” and “—Alternate Exchange Calculation in Case of an Event of Default.” In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS on the pricing date.

§ Hedging and trading activity by our subsidiaries could potentially adversely affect the value of the Trigger PLUS. One or more of our subsidiaries expect to carry out hedging activities related to the Trigger PLUS (and possibly to other instruments linked to Apple Stock), including trading in Apple Stock and in options contracts on Apple Stock, as well as in other instruments related to Apple Stock. As a result, these entities may be unwinding or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the Trigger PLUS, and the hedging strategy may involve greater and more frequent dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the valuation date approaches. Some of our subsidiaries also trade Apple Stock and other financial instruments related to Apple Stock on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to pricing date could potentially increase the initial share price and, therefore, could increase the price at or above which Apple Stock must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a significant loss on their initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the Trigger PLUS, including on the valuation date, could adversely affect the closing price of Apple Stock on the valuation date and, accordingly, the amount of cash an investor will receive at maturity, if any.

§ The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS are uncertain. Please read the discussion under “Additional provisions—Tax considerations” in this document and the discussion under “United States

Federal Taxation” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement (together the “Tax Disclosure Sections”) concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS. If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment, the timing and character of income on the Trigger PLUS might differ significantly from the tax treatment described in the Tax Disclosure Sections. For example, under one possible treatment, the IRS could seek to recharacterize the Trigger PLUS as debt instruments. In that event, U.S. Holders would be required to accrue into income original issue discount on the Trigger PLUS every year at a “comparable yield” determined at the time of issuance and recognize all income and gain in respect of the Trigger PLUS as ordinary income. Additionally, as discussed under “United States Federal Taxation—FATCA Legislation” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, the withholding rules commonly referred to as “FATCA” would apply to the Trigger PLUS if they were recharacterized as debt instruments. The risk that financial instruments providing for buffers, triggers or similar downside protection features, such as the Trigger PLUS, would be recharacterized as debt is greater than the risk of recharacterization for comparable financial instruments that do not have such features. We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the tax treatment of the Trigger PLUS, and the IRS or a court may not agree with the tax treatment described in the Tax Disclosure Sections.

In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; whether short-term instruments should be subject to any such accrual regime; the relevance of factors such as the exchange-traded status of the instruments and the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” rule, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose an interest charge. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect. Both U.S. and Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, including possible alternative treatments, the issues presented by this notice and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Additional Information About the Trigger PLUS

Please read this information in conjunction with the summary terms on the front cover of this document.

| Additional
provisions: | |
| --- | --- |
| Postponement of maturity date: | If, due to a market disruption event or otherwise, the valuation date is postponed so that it falls less than two business days prior to the scheduled maturity date, the maturity date will be postponed to the second business day following the valuation date as postponed. |
| Additional information related to calculating the final share price: | If a market disruption event occurs with respect to Apple Stock,
the calculation agent may determine the final share price in accordance with the procedures set forth in the accompanying preliminary
pricing supplement. You should refer to the section “Description of Trigger PLUS—Closing Price” in the accompanying
preliminary pricing supplement for more information. Following certain corporate events relating to Apple
Stock, the calculation agent may make the antidilution adjustments in accordance with the procedures set forth in the accompanying
preliminary pricing supplement for PLUS. You should refer to the section “Description of Trigger PLUS—Antidilution
Adjustments” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement for more information. |
| Minimum ticketing size: | $1,000 / 100 Trigger PLUS |
| Tax considerations: | You should note that
the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus supplement does not apply to the
Trigger PLUS offered under the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and is superseded by the following discussion. Although there is uncertainty
regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS due to the lack of governing authority,
in the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, under current law, and based on current market conditions, a Trigger
PLUS should be treated as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. |
| | Assuming this treatment of the Trigger PLUS is respected, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result based on current law: |
| | § A U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize taxable income over the term of the Trigger PLUS prior to settlement, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange. |
| | § Upon sale, exchange or settlement of the Trigger PLUS, a U.S. Holder should recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Trigger PLUS. Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if the investor has held the Trigger PLUS for more than one year, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise. |
| | In 2007,
the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) released a notice requesting comments on
the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in
particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks
for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; whether
short-term instruments should be subject to any such accrual regime; the relevance of factors such as the exchange-traded status
of the instruments and the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which
income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these
instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” rule, which very generally can operate to recharacterize
certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose an interest charge. While the notice requests comments on appropriate
transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues
could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect. Both
U.S. and non-U.S. investors considering an investment in the Trigger PLUS should read the discussion under “Risk Factors”
in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying preliminary pricing
supplement and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in
the Trigger PLUS, including possible alternative treatments, the issues presented by the aforementioned notice and any tax consequences
arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. |

The discussion in the preceding paragraphs under “Tax considerations” and the discussion contained in the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, insofar as they purport to describe provisions of U.S. federal income tax laws or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS.
Trustee: The Bank of New York Mellon
Calculation agent: MS & Co.
Use of proceeds and hedging: The proceeds we receive from the sale of the Trigger PLUS will
be used for general corporate purposes. We will receive, in aggregate, $10 per Trigger PLUS issued, because, when we enter into
hedging transactions in order to meet our obligations under the Trigger PLUS, our hedging counterparty will reimburse the cost
of the agent’s commissions. The costs of the Trigger PLUS borne by you and described beginning on page 2 above comprise the
agent’s commissions and the cost of issuing, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS. On or prior to the pricing date, we, through our subsidiaries
or others, expect to hedge our anticipated exposure in connection with the Trigger PLUS by taking positions in Apple Stock and
in futures and options contracts on Apple Stock, or in any other securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection
with such hedging. Such purchase activity could potentially increase the initial share price of Apple Stock, and therefore the
trigger level and the price at or above which Apple Stock must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a significant
loss on their initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. In addition, through our subsidiaries, we are likely to modify our hedge
position throughout the term of the Trigger PLUS by purchasing and selling Apple Stock, options contracts relating to Apple Stock
listed on major securities markets or positions in any other available securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection
with such hedging activities, including by selling any such securities or instruments on the valuation date. As a result, these
entities may be unwinding or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the Trigger PLUS, and the hedging strategy may involve
greater and more frequent dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the valuation date approaches. We cannot give any assurance that
our hedging activity will not affect the price of Apple Stock and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the Trigger PLUS or
the payment you will receive at maturity, if any. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Description
of Trigger PLUS—Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.
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 Trigger PLUS. 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 each 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 Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger
PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS. 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 Trigger PLUS. Because we may be considered a party in interest with respect to many Plans, the Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS will be deemed to have represented, in its corporate and its fiduciary capacity, by its purchase and holding of the Trigger PLUS that either (a) it is not a Plan or a Plan Asset Entity and is not purchasing such Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan consult with their counsel regarding the availability of exemptive relief. The Trigger PLUS are contractual financial instruments. The financial exposure provided by the Trigger PLUS is not a substitute or proxy for, and is not intended as a substitute or proxy for, individualized investment management or advice for the benefit of any purchaser or holder of the Trigger PLUS. The Trigger PLUS have not been designed and will not be administered in a manner intended to reflect the individualized needs and objectives of any purchaser or holder of the Trigger PLUS. Each purchaser or holder of any Trigger PLUS acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchaser or holder or its fiduciary has made and shall make all investment decisions for the purchaser or holder and the purchaser or holder has not relied and shall not rely in any way upon us or our affiliates to act as a fiduciary or adviser of the purchaser or holder with respect to (A) the design and terms of the Trigger PLUS, (B) the purchaser or holder’s investment in the Trigger PLUS, or (C) the exercise of or failure to exercise any rights we have under or with respect to the Trigger PLUS; (ii) we and our affiliates have acted and will act solely for our own account in connection with (A) all transactions relating to the Trigger PLUS and (B) all hedging transactions in connection with our obligations under the Trigger PLUS; (iii) any and all assets and positions relating to hedging transactions by us or our affiliates are assets and positions of those entities and are not assets and positions held for the benefit of the purchaser or holder; (iv) our interests are adverse to the interests of the purchaser or holder; and (v) neither we nor any of our affiliates is a fiduciary or adviser of the purchaser or holder in connection with any such assets, positions or transactions, and any information that we or any of our affiliates may provide is not intended to be impartial investment advice. Each purchaser and holder of the Trigger PLUS has exclusive responsibility for ensuring that its purchase, holding and disposition of the Trigger PLUS do not violate the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA or the Code or any Similar Law. The sale of any Trigger PLUS 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 Trigger PLUS if the account, plan or annuity is for the benefit of an employee of Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley Wealth Management or a family

member and the employee receives any compensation (such as, for example, an addition to bonus) based on the purchase of the Trigger PLUS by the account, plan or annuity.
Additional considerations: Client accounts over which Morgan Stanley, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management or any of their respective subsidiaries have investment discretion are not permitted to purchase the Trigger PLUS, either directly or indirectly.
Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest: The agent may distribute the Trigger PLUS through Morgan Stanley
Smith Barney LLC (“Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”), as selected dealer, or other dealers, which may include Morgan
Stanley & Co. International plc (“MSIP”) and Bank Morgan Stanley AG. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, MSIP and
Bank Morgan Stanley AG are affiliates of Morgan Stanley. Selected dealers, including Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, and their
financial advisors will collectively receive from the agent, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, a fixed sales commission of $0.20 for
each Trigger PLUS they sell. In addition, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will receive a structuring fee of $0.05 for each Trigger
PLUS. MS & Co. is our wholly-owned subsidiary and it and other
subsidiaries of ours expect to make a profit by selling, structuring and, when applicable, hedging the Trigger PLUS. When MS &
Co. prices this offering of Trigger PLUS, it will determine the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS such that for each Trigger PLUS
the estimated value on the pricing date will be no lower than the minimum level described in “Summary of Pricing Supplement”
beginning on page 2. MS & Co. will conduct this offering in compliance with the
requirements of FINRA Rule 5121 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., which is commonly referred to as FINRA, regarding
a FINRA member firm’s distribution of the securities of an affiliate and related conflicts of interest. MS & Co. or any
of our other affiliates may not make sales in this offering to any discretionary account. In order to facilitate the offering of the Trigger PLUS,
the agent may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Trigger PLUS. Specifically,
the agent may sell more PLUS than it is obligated to purchase in connection with the offering, creating a naked short position
in the Trigger PLUS for its own account. The agent must close out any naked short position by purchasing the Trigger PLUS in the
open market after the offering. A naked short position in the Trigger PLUS is more likely to be created if the agent is concerned
that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Trigger PLUS in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect
investors who purchase in the offering. As an additional means of facilitating the offering, the agent may bid for, and purchase,
the Trigger PLUS in the open market to stabilize the price of the Trigger PLUS. Any of these activities may raise or maintain
the market price of the Trigger PLUS above independent market prices or prevent or retard a decline in the market price of the
Trigger PLUS. The agent is not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time. An affiliate
of the agent has entered into a hedging transaction in connection with this offering of the Trigger PLUS. See “—Use
of proceeds and hedging” above.
