If an event of default with respect to the securities shall have occurred and be continuing, the calculation agent will determine the amount declared due and payable upon any acceleration of the securities (the “acceleration amount”), which will be an amount in cash equal to the payment at maturity with respect to the securities, determined as though the basket performance on the date of such acceleration were the basket performance for the determination date. If the maturity of the securities is accelerated because of an event of default as described above, we shall, or shall cause the calculation agent to, provide written notice to the trustee at its New York office, on which notice the trustee may conclusively rely, and to The Depository Trust Company of the acceleration amount and the aggregate cash amount due with respect to the securities as promptly as possible and in no event later than two business days after the date of such acceleration.
Postponement of maturity date: If, due to a market disruption event or otherwise, the determination date for any basket commodity is postponed so that it falls less than two business days prior to the scheduled maturity date, the maturity date will be the second business day following such determination date as postponed.
Partially capital protected commodity-linked notes: All references to “partially capital protected commodity-linked notes” or related terms in the accompanying prospectus supplement shall be deemed to refer to “commodity-linked partial principal at risk securities” when read in conjunction with this pricing supplement.

General Information — Listing: The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.
CUSIP: 617482TV6
ISIN: US617482TV67
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 2.7927% 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 $1,101.5547 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 June 30, 2011 $3.8012 $3.8012
July 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011 $14.0166 $17.8178
January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012 $14.2123 $32.0301
July 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012 $14.4108 $46.4409
January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013 $14.6120 $61.0529
July 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013 $14.8160 $75.8689
January 1, 2014 through June 30, 2014 $15.0229 $90.8918
July 1, 2014 through the Maturity Date $10.6629 $101.5547
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.)
Agent: Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (“MS & Co.”).
Calculation agent: Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. (“MSCG”)
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 affiliates. On or prior to the pricing date, we, through our affiliates or others, hedged our anticipated exposure in connection with the securities by taking positions in the basket commodities and in futures and/or options contracts on such basket commodities. Such purchase activity could have increased the prices of the basket commodities, and, therefore, could have increased the commodity prices required on the determination date before investors would receive at maturity a payment that exceeds the stated principal amount of the securities. For further information, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus 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 securities. 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

May 2011 Page 6

Commodity-Linked Partial Principal at Risk Securities due November 12, 2014

Based on the Performance of a Basket Consisting of Eight Commodities

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”). 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 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.

This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the federal laws of the United States of America, the laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

How the Securities W ork

Payoff Diagram

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: 100%
Maximum payment amount: $1,480 per security (148% of the stated principal amount)
Minimum payment amount: $900 per security (90% of the stated principal amount)

How it works

§ If the basket performance is greater than zero, then investors receive the $1,000 stated principal amount plus 100% of the increase in the underlying commodity basket over the term of the securities, subject to the maximum payment amount.

o If the basket performance is 20%, the investor would receive a 20% return, or $1,200 per security.

o If the basket performance is 90%, the investor would receive only the maximum payment amount of 148% of the stated principal amount, or $1,480 per security.

§ If the basket performance is less than or equal to zero, 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 value of the basket, subject to the minimum payment amount of $900 per security.

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

o If the basket performance depreciates 50%, the investor would receive the minimum payment amount of 90% of the stated principal amount, or $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 commodity basket, determined as follows:

If the basket performance is greater than zero , 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,

subject to a maximum payment amount of $1,480 per security (148% of the stated principal amount),

where,

supplemental redemption amount = $1,000 × participation rate × basket performance

and

participation rate = 100%

and

basket performance = sum of the commodity performance values of each of the basket commodities

and

commodity performance value
initial commodity price

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

$1,000 + ($1,000 x basket performance)

subject to the minimum payment amount of $900, or 90% of the stated principal amount.

If the basket performance is less than zero, the payment at maturity will be an amount less than the stated principal amount of $1,000, subject to the minimum payment amount of $900 per security.

The following examples reflect the maximum payment amount at maturity of 148% and the minimum payment at maturity of $900 per stated principal amount. The hypothetical payments at maturity presented are for illustrative purposes only. The actual payments at maturity applicable to a purchaser of the notes will be determined on the determination date based on the weighted sum of the percentage changes in the commodity values from the initial commodity prices. Any payment on the notes, including the payment at maturity, is subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

Table 1: Basket performance is positive — Basket Commodity Initial Commodity Price Final Commodity Price Percent Change Weighting Commodity Performance Value

Commodity 2 100¢ 108¢ 8% 12.5% 1%
Commodity 3 100¢ 100¢ 0% 12.5% 0%
Commodity 4 100¢ 108¢ 8% 12.5% 1%

Commodity 7 100¢ 124¢ 24% 12.5% 3%
Commodity 8 100¢ 100¢ 0% 12.5% 0
Basket Performance: 10%

Explanation for Example 1

As illustrated by Table 1, seven of the eight hypothetical basket commodities have zero or positive percent changes, ranging from 0% to 32%, and the other hypothetical commodity has a negative percent change of -8%. The basket performance is the sum of the commodity performance values and in this case is equal to 10%. The total payment at maturity per security in this example would equal $1,100, which is the sum of the $1,000 stated principal amount per security and a supplemental redemption amount of $100.

Supplemental redemption amount = $1,000 x 100% x 10% = $100

Payment at maturity = $1,000 + $100 = $1,100

Commodity 8 100¢ 52¢ -48% 12.5% -6%
Basket Performance: -3%

Explanation for Example 2

Although six of the basket commodities have zero or positive commodity performance values and only two have negative commodity performance values, the sum of the commodity performance values is negative, resulting in the basket performance of -3%. Therefore, the payment at maturity per security will equal only $970, representing a 3% loss on your investment.

Payment at maturity = $1,000 + ($1,000 x –3%) = $970

Risk Factors

The securities are financial instruments that are suitable only for investors who are capable of understanding the complexities and risks specific to the securities. Accordingly, you should consult with your own financial and legal advisers as to the risks entailed by an investment in the securities and the suitability of such securities in light of your particular circumstances. The securities are not secured debt and investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in the underlying commodity basket. The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key considerations for investors in the securities. For a complete list of considerations and risk factors, please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-18 of the prospectus supplement.

§ The securities do not pay interest and provide 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, on the determination date, the basket performance is less than zero, 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 underlying commodity basket, subject to the minimum payment amount of $900 per security (90% of the stated principal amount). Even if you do not suffer a loss on the securities due to a decline in the commodity basket, the commodity basket may not appreciate significantly and therefore the return on your investment in the securities may be less than the amount that would be paid on an ordinary debt security issued by us with similar maturities.

§ Your appreciation potential is limited. The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the maximum payment amount of $1,480 per security, or 148% of the stated principal amount.

§ Market price of the securities may be influenced by many unpredictable factors. Several factors, many of which are beyond our control, 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 market prices of each of the basket commodities and futures contracts on such basket commodities; the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the basket commodities; trends of supply and demand for the basket commodities; geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political and regulatory or judicial events; interest and yield rates in the market; time remaining to maturity; and any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads. In addition, the commodities markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including lack of liquidity, participation of speculators and government intervention. As a result, the market value of the securities will vary and may be less than the original issue price at any time prior to maturity and sale of the securities prior to maturity may result in a loss.

§ 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. 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.

§ Specific commodities prices are affected by numerous factors specific to each market. We describe the principal risks associated with investments in brent crude in the next paragraph. For more information on brent, copper, corn, gasoline RBOB, gold, soybeans and sugar, please see “Annex I—Certain Additional Commodity and Commodity Index Risks” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

The brent commodity underlying these notes is composed entirely of Brent crude oil futures contracts. The price of Brent crude oil futures is primarily affected by the global demand for and supply of crude oil, but is also influenced significantly from time to time by speculative actions and by currency exchange rates. Demand for refined petroleum products by consumers, as well as the agricultural, manufacturing and transportation industries, affects the price of crude oil. Crude oil’s end-use as a refined product is often as transport fuel, industrial fuel and in-home heating fuel. Potential for substitution in most areas exists, although considerations including relative cost often limit substitution levels. Because the precursors of demand for petroleum products are linked to economic activity, demand will tend to reflect economic conditions. Demand is also influenced by government regulations, such as environmental or consumption policies. In addition to general economic activity and demand, prices for crude oil

May 2011 Page 13

Commodity-Linked Partial Principal at Risk Securities due November 12, 2014

Based on the Performance of a Basket Consisting of Eight Commodities

are affected by political events, labor activity and, in particular, direct government intervention (such as embargos) or supply disruptions in major oil producing regions of the world. Such events tend to affect oil prices worldwide, regardless of the location of the event. Supply for crude oil may increase or decrease depending on many factors. These include production decisions by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other crude oil producers. In the event of sudden disruptions in the supplies of oil, such as those caused by war, natural events, accidents or acts of terrorism, prices of oil futures contracts could become extremely volatile and unpredictable. Also, sudden and dramatic changes in the futures market may occur, for example, upon a cessation of hostilities that may exist in countries producing oil, the introduction of new or previously withheld supplies into the market or the introduction of substitute products or commodities. The price of Brent crude oil futures has experienced very severe price fluctuations over the recent past and there can be no assurance that this extreme price volatility will not continue in the future.

§ The securities will not be listed 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.

§ Investments linked to commodities are subject to sharp fluctuations in commodity prices. Investments, such as the securities, linked to the prices of commodities, are subject to sharp fluctuations in the prices of commodities and related contracts over short periods of time for a variety of factors, including: changes in supply and demand relationships; weather; climatic events; the occurrence of natural disasters; wars; political and civil upheavals; acts of terrorism; trade, fiscal, monetary, and exchange control programs; domestic and foreign political and economic events and policies; technological developments; changes in interest rates; and trading activities in commodities and related contracts. These factors may affect the commodity prices of the basket commodities and the value of your securities in varying and potentially inconsistent ways. As a result of these or other factors, the prices of the basket commodities may be, and have recently been, highly volatile (see “Historical Information” beginning on page 17).

§ Changes in the value of one or more of the basket commodities may offset each other . Price movements in the basket commodities may not correlate with each other. At a time when the price of one or more of the basket commodities increases, the price of one or more of the other basket commodities may increase to a lesser extent or may decline. Therefore, in calculating the basket performance, increases in the value of one or more of the basket commodities may be moderated, or wholly offset, by lesser increases or declines in the value of one or more of the other basket commodities.

§ Suspension or disruptions of market trading in the basket commodities and related futures markets may adversely affect the value of the securities. The commodity markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention. In addition, U.S. futures exchanges and some foreign exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuation in futures contract prices which may occur during a single business day. These limits are generally referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” and the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a “limit price.” Once the limit price has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made at a different price. Limit prices have the effect of precluding trading in a particular contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts at disadvantageous times or prices. These circumstances could adversely affect the value of the basket commodities and, therefore, the value of the securities.

§ Not equivalent to investing directly in the basket commodities . Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in any of the basket commodities or in futures contracts or forward contracts on any of the basket commodities. Decreases in the levels of certain of the basket commodities on the determination date could more than offset any increase in levels of other basket commodities on the determination date. A decrease in the levels of any of the basket commodities may have a material adverse effect on the value of the securities and the return on an investment in the securities.

May 2011 Page 14

Commodity-Linked Partial Principal at Risk Securities due November 12, 2014

Based on the Performance of a Basket Consisting of Eight Commodities

Furthermore, by purchasing the securities, you do not purchase any entitlement to any of the basket commodities or to futures contracts or forward contracts on any of the basket commodities. Also, by purchasing the securities, you are taking credit risk of Morgan Stanley and are not to any counter-party to futures contracts and forward contracts on any of the basket commodities.

§ There are risks relating to the trading of metals on the London Metal Exchange. The official cash offer prices of copper and nickel are determined by reference to the per unit U.S. dollar cash offer prices of contracts traded on the London Metal Exchange, which we refer to as the LME. The LME is a principals’ market which operates in a manner more closely analogous to the over-the-counter physical commodity markets than regulated futures markets. For example, there are no daily price limits on the LME, which would otherwise restrict the extent of daily fluctuations in the prices of LME contracts. In a declining market, therefore, it is possible that prices would continue to decline without limitation within a trading day or over a period of trading days. In addition, a contract may be entered into on the LME calling for delivery on any day from one day to three months following the date of such contract and for monthly delivery in any of the next 16 to 24 months (depending on the commodity) following such third month, in contrast to trading on futures exchanges, which call for delivery in stated delivery months. As a result, there may be a greater risk of a concentration of positions in LME contracts on particular delivery dates, which in turn could cause temporary aberrations in the prices of LME contracts for certain delivery dates. If such aberrations occur on the determination date, the per unit U.S. dollar cash offer prices used to determine the official cash offer price of certain basket commodities, and consequently the supplemental redemption amount, could be adversely affected.

§ There are risks relating to trading of commodities on the London Bullion Market Association. Gold is traded on the London Bullion Market Association, which we refer to as the LBMA. The closing prices of gold will be determined by reference to the fixing prices reported by the LBMA. The LBMA is a self-regulatory association of bullion market participants. Although all market-making members of the LBMA are supervised by the Bank of England and are required to satisfy a capital adequacy test, the LBMA itself is not a regulated entity. If the LBMA should cease operations, or if bullion trading should become subject to a value added tax or other tax or any other form of regulation currently not in place, the role of LBMA price fixings as a global benchmark for the value of gold may be adversely affected. The LBMA is a principals’ market which operates in a manner more closely analogous to over-the-counter physical commodity markets than regulated futures markets, and certain features of U.S. futures contracts are not present in the context of LBMA trading. For example, there are no daily price limits on the LBMA, which would otherwise restrict fluctuations in the prices of LBMA contracts. In a declining market, it is possible that prices would continue to decline without limitation within a trading day or over a period of trading days.

§ The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of the issuer, will make determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MSCG has determined the initial commodity price and will determine the final commodity price of each basket commodity, the basket performance and calculate the amount of cash you will receive at maturity. Determinations made by MSCG in its capacity as calculation agent, including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events and the calculation of any settlement price in the event of a market disruption event, may affect the payout to you at maturity.

§ 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 in secondary market transactions will likely be 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 costs 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 such 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.

§ Hedging and trading activity by our subsidiaries could potentially adversely affect the value of the securities. One or more of our subsidiaries have carried out, and will continue to carry out hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the basket commodities), including trading in futures

May 2011 Page 15

Commodity-Linked Partial Principal at Risk Securities due November 12, 2014

Based on the Performance of a Basket Consisting of Eight Commodities

contracts on the basket commodities, and possibly in other instruments related to the basket commodities. Some of our subsidiaries also trade the basket commodities and other financial instruments related to the basket commodities on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer, commodity trading and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have increased the initial commodity prices of the basket commodities and, as a result, could have increased the commodity prices required on the determination date before you would receive a payment at maturity that exceeds the stated principal amount of the securities. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could adversely affect the final commodity prices and, accordingly, the amount of cash you will receive at maturity.

Historical Information

The graph below sets forth the daily historical performance of the basket for the period from January 1, 2006 through May 6, 2011. The tables following the graph set forth the published high and low, as well as end-of-quarter, prices for each of the basket commodities for each quarter in the period from January 1, 2006 through May 6, 2011. The related graphs set forth the daily commodity prices for each of the basket commodities in the same period. On May 6, 2011, the commodity prices were, in the case of the brent, $109.13, in the case of copper, $8,790, in the case of corn, 682.75¢, in the case of gasoline RBOB, $309.01, in the case of gold, $1,486.50, in the case of nickel, $24,430, in the case of soybeans, 1,325¢ and in the case of sugar, 20.47¢. We obtained the information in the tables and graphs below from Bloomberg Financial Markets, without independent verification. The historical price performance of the basket commodities should not be taken as an indication of future performance.
