Jump Securities Based on the Value of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund due December 30, 2013

The securities are senior unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley, will pay no interest, do not guarantee the return of any principal at maturity and have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement for Jump Securities, the accompanying index supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as supplemented and modified by this pricing supplement. If the underlying shares appreciate at all on the valuation date, you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity a minimum of $2.80 in addition to the stated principal amount. If the underlying shares appreciate by more than 28% on the valuation date, you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity the stated principal amount plus an amount based on the percentage increase of the underlying shares. However, if the final share price is less than the initial share price, the payment due at maturity will be less than the stated principal amount of the securities by an amount that is proportionate to such percentage decrease in the final share price from the initial share price; such amount may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of $10 and could be zero. Accordingly, investors may lose their entire initial investment in 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 are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

General Information
Listing:	The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.
CUSIP:	61760T272
ISIN:	US61760T2722
Minimum ticketing size:	$1,000 / 100 securities
Tax considerations:	Although the issuer believes that, under current law, each security should be treated as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, there is uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities.
	Assuming this treatment of the securities is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for Jump Securities, 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 securities prior to settlement, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange, and
	§ upon sale, exchange or settlement of the securities, 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 securities. Subject to the discussion below concerning the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule under Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, any gain or loss recognized upon sale, exchange or settlement of the securities should be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the securities for more than one year, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise.
	Because the securities are linked to shares of an exchange-traded fund, although the matter is not clear, there is a substantial risk that an investment in the securities will be treated as a “constructive ownership transaction.” If this treatment applies, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain of the U.S. Holder in respect of the securities could be recharacterized as ordinary income (and an interest charge will be imposed). U.S. investors should read the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation – Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders – Tax Treatment of the Securities – Additional Considerations for Securities that Provide for the Greater of a Fixed Upside Payment and an Upside Return Based on the Increased Value of the Underlying” in the accompanying product supplement for Jump Securities for additional information and consult their tax advisers regarding the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule. 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” regime (as discussed above). 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 securities, possibly with retroactive effect. Both U.S. and non-U.S. investors considering an investment in the securities should read the discussion under “Risk Factors” in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for Jump Securities and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including possible alternative treatments, the potential application of the constructive ownership regime, the issues presented by the aforementioned notice and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.
Trustee:	The Bank of New York Mellon
Calculation agent:	Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS & Co.”)
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. On or prior to the pricing date, we, through our subsidiaries or others, hedged our anticipated exposure in connection with the securities by taking positions in the underlying shares and in futures and options contracts on the underlying shares or any component stocks of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index listed on major securities markets. Such purchase activity could have increased the value of the shares on the

December 2011 Page 3

Jump Securities Based on the Performance of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund due December 30, 2013

pricing date, and therefore, could have increased the price at which the underlying shares must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a loss on their initial investment in the securities. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement for Jump 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. 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 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 those 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 Code 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.

How the Jump Securities Work

Payoff Diagram

The payoff diagram below illustrates the payout on the securities at maturity for a range of hypothetical percentage changes in the closing price of the underlying shares. The diagram is based on the following terms:

Stated principal amount:	$10 per security
Upside payment:	$2.80 per security (28% of the stated principal amount)

Jump Securities Payoff Diagram

How it works

¡ If the final share price is greater than the initial share price, the investor would receive $10 plus the greater of (i) $10 times the index percent change and (ii) the upside payment of $2.80. Under the terms of the securities, an investor would receive a payment at maturity of $12.80 per security (128% of the stated principal amount) if the final index value has increased by no more than 28% from the initial index value, and would receive $10 plus an amount that represents a 1 to 1 participation in the appreciation of the underlying index if the final index value has increased from the initial index value by more than 28%.

¡ If the final share price is less than or equal to the initial share price, the payment at maturity would be less than or equal to the stated principal amount of $10. If the final share price has declined from the initial share price, the payment at maturity will be less than $10 by an amount that is proportionate to such percentage decrease of the price of the underlying shares.

o For example, if the final share price declines by 40% from the initial share price, the payment at maturity would be $6 per security (60% of the stated principal amount).

December 2011 Page 6

Jump Securities Based on the Performance of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund due December 30, 2013

Payment at Maturity

At maturity, investors will receive for each $10 stated principal amount of securities that they hold an amount in cash based on the performance of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund on the valuation date, determined as follows:

If the final share price is greater than the initial share price:

$10 + the greater of (i) $10 × the share percentage change and (ii) the upside payment

share percent change	=	final share price – initial share price initial share price
upside payment	=	$2.80 per security

If the final share price is less than or equal to the initial share price:

$10 × the share performance factor

Because the share performance factor will be less than or equal to 100% in this scenario, the payment at maturity will be less than or equal to $10 per security and could be zero.

EFPlaceholder 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 product supplement for Jump Securities and the accompanying prospectus. We also urge you to consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the securities.

§ The securities do not pay interest or guarantee return of principal. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not pay interest or guarantee payment of the principal amount at maturity. At maturity, you will receive for each $10 stated principal amount of securities that you hold an amount in cash based upon the final share price. If the final share price is less than the initial share price, you will receive an amount in cash that is less than the $10 stated principal amount of each security by an amount proportionate to the decline in the price of the underlying shares, and in this scenario you will lose money on your investment. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities, and, accordingly, you could lose your entire investment. See “How the Jump Securities Work” on page 6 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. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, which we refer to as 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 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:

o the trading price, volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) and dividends of the underlying shares and of the stocks composing the MSCI Emerging Markets Index,

o interest and yield rates in the market,

o geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying shares or the securities markets generally and which may affect the final share price of the underlying shares,

o the time remaining until the securities mature,

o the exchange rates of the U.S. dollar relative to the currencies in which the stocks underlying the MSCI Emerging Markets Index trade,

o the occurrence of certain events affecting the underlying shares 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.

Some or all of these factors will influence the price you will receive if you sell your securities prior to maturity. For example, you may have to sell your securities at a substantial discount from the stated principal amount if at the time of sale the value of the underlying shares is at or below the initial share price.

You cannot predict the future performance of the underlying shares based on its historical performance. If the final share price is less than the initial share price, you will be exposed on a 1 to 1 basis to such decline in the final share price from the initial share price. There can be no assurance that the final share price will be greater than the initial share price so that you will receive at maturity an amount that is greater than the $10 stated principal amount for each security you hold.

December 2011 Page 8

Jump Securities Based on the Performance of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund due December 30, 2013

§ 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.

§ 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 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 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.

§ Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying shares. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying shares, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index or the stocks that constitute the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Investors in the securities will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying shares or the stocks that constitute the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

§ The securities are subject to currency exchange rate risk . Because the price of the underlying shares is related to the U.S. dollar value of stocks underlying the MSCI Emerging Markets 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 Emerging Markets Index, the price of the underlying shares will be adversely affected and the payment at maturity on the securities may be reduced.

Of particular importance to potential currency exchange risk are:

o existing and expected rates of inflation;

o existing and expected interest rate levels;

o the balance of payments; and

o the extent of governmental surpluses or deficits in the countries represented in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and the United States of America.

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 Emerging Markets Index and the United States and other countries important to international trade and finance.

December 2011 Page 9

Jump Securities Based on the Performance of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund due December 30, 2013

§ There are risks associated with investments in securities linked to the value of foreign equity securities The underlying shares track the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which is linked to the value of foreign equity securities. 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 United States 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. 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.

§ There are risks associated with investments in securities linked to the value of emerging markets equity securities. The stocks included in the index have been issued by companies in various emerging markets countries. 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.

§ Adjustments to the underlying shares or the index tracked by the underlying shares could adversely affect the value of the securities. As the investment adviser to the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund, BlackRock Fund Advisors (the “Investment Adviser”) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Pursuant to its investment strategy or otherwise, the Investment Advisor may add, delete or substitute the stocks composing the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund. Any of these actions could adversely affect the price of the underlying shares and, consequently, the value of the securities. MSCI Inc. (“MSCI”) is responsible for calculating and maintaining the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. MSCI may add, delete or substitute the stocks constituting the MSCI Emerging Markets Index or make other methodological changes that could change the value of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. MSCI may also discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index at any time. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and, consequently, the price of the underlying shares and the value of the securities.

§ The underlying shares and the index tracked by the underlying shares are different. The performance of the underlying shares may not exactly replicate the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index because the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund will reflect transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. It is also possible that the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund may not fully replicate or may in certain circumstances diverge significantly from the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index due to the temporary unavailability of certain securities in the secondary market, the performance of any derivative instruments contained in this fund, differences in trading hours between the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index or due to other circumstances. The iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund generally invests at least 90% of its assets in securities of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and in depositary receipts representing securities of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund may invest the remainder of its assets in securities not included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index but which the Investment Adviser believes will help the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund track the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, and in futures contracts, options on futures contracts, options and swaps as well as cash and cash equivalents, including shares of money market funds advised by the Investment Adviser.

§ The antidilution adjustments the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every event that can affect the underlying shares. MS & Co., as calculation agent, will adjust the adjustment factor for the underlying

December 2011 Page 10

Jump Securities Based on the Performance of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund due December 30, 2013

§ shares for certain events affecting the underlying shares, such as stock splits and stock dividends. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment for every event or every distribution that could affect the underlying shares. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to adjust the adjustment factor, the market price of the securities 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 securities.

§ The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of the issuer, will make determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MS & Co. has determined the initial share price and will determine the final share price, the share percent change, the share performance factor , as applicable, and the payment that you will receive at maturity, if any. Any of these 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 final share price in the event of a market disruption event or discontinuance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, 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 have carried out, and will continue to carry out, hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the underlying shares or the MSCI Emerging Markets Index), including trading in the underlying shares, the stocks that constitute the MSCI Emerging Markets Index as well as in other instruments related to the underlying shares or the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Some of our subsidiaries also trade the underlying shares and the stocks that constitute the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and other financial instruments related to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index 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 the pricing date could have increased the initial share price and, therefore, could have increased the price at which the underlying shares of the iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a loss on their initial investment in securities. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities, including on the valuation date, could adversely affect the closing price of the underlying shares on the valuation date and, accordingly, the amount of cash an investor will receive at maturity.

§ The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain . Please read the discussion under “Fact Sheet – General Information – Tax considerations” in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for Jump Securities (together the “Tax Disclosure Sections”) concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities. As discussed in the Tax Disclosure Sections, there is a substantial risk that the “constructive ownership” rule could apply, in which case all or a portion of any long-term capital gain recognized by a U.S. Holder could be recharacterized as ordinary income (and an interest charge will be imposed). If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the timing and character of income on the securities might differ significantly from the tax treatment described in the Tax Disclosure Sections. For example, under one treatment, U.S. Holders could be required to accrue into income original issue discount on the securities every year at a “comparable yield” determined at the time of issuance and recognize all income and gain in respect of the securities as ordinary income. The issuer does not plan to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the tax treatment of the securities, and the IRS or a court may not agree with the tax treatment described in the Tax Disclosure Sec tions. 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” regime (as discussed above). 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 securities, 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 securities, including possible alternative treatments, the potential application of the constructive ownership regime, the issues presented by this notice and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.
