GLOBAL MEDIUM-TERM NOTES, SERIES F

Senior Notes

Autocallable Quarterly Review Notes due March 11, 2015 with Step-Down Call Level Feature

Based on the Performance of West Texas Intermediate Light Sweet Crude Oil

Principal at Risk Securities

Unlike ordinary debt securities, the Autocallable Quarterly Review Notes due March 11, 2015 Based on the Performance of West Texas Intermediate Light Sweet Crude Oil with Step-Down Call Level Feature, which we refer to as the securities, do not pay interest and do not guarantee the return of any principal at maturity. If the price of West Texas Intermediate light sweet crude oil (“WTI crude oil”), which we refer to as the underlying commodity, on any of the three review dates is at or above the specified call level (which will initially be equal to the initial commodity price but will decrease progressively over the term of the securities), the securities will be automatically called for a fixed cash payment per security, which we refer to as the call price, that will vary depending on the review date. If the securities are not called prior to maturity, you will receive at maturity for each security you hold an amount in cash that will vary depending on the final commodity price, and which may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. The securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income in exchange for the possibility of receiving a call price or payment at maturity greater than the stated principal amount, if the commodity price on a review date or the final commodity price, as applicable, is at or above the then applicable call level, and, if the securities have not been called, in exchange for limited protection against loss at maturity, but only if the final commodity price has not declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price. The securities 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 securities 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.

• The stated principal amount and original issue price of each security is $1,000.

• We will not pay interest on the securities.

• If, on any of the three review dates, the commodity price is at or above the then applicable call level as specified below, the securities will be automatically called on the third business day following such review date for the applicable call price as specified below:

º First review date, June 6, 2014: the call level will be $ , which is equal to 100% of the initial commodity price, and the call price will be $1,027.50 (corresponding to 102.75% of the stated principal amount),

º Second review date, September 8, 2014: the call level will be $ , which is equal to 95% of the initial commodity price, and the call price will be $1,055.00 (corresponding to 105.50% of the stated principal amount), or

º Third review date, December 8, 2014: the call level will be $ , which is equal to 90% of the initial commodity price, and the call price will be $1,082.50 (corresponding to 108.25% of the stated principal amount)

• At maturity, if the securities have not previously been called, you will receive for each security that you hold an amount of cash equal to:

º if the final commodity price is at or above the call level of $ , which is equal to 85% of the initial commodity price: $1,110.00 (corresponding to 111.00% of the stated principal amount),

º if the final commodity price is less than the then applicable call level of $ , but is greater than or equal to $ , which means it has not declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price: the $1,000 stated principal amount of the securities, or

º if the final commodity price is less than $ , which means it has declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price: $1,000 + ($1,000 x commodity percent change).

There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities. Accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment in the securities.

• The initial commodity price is the commodity price on February 21, 2014, which is the day we price the securities for initial sale to the public, which we refer to as the pricing date.

• The final commodity price is equal to the arithmetic average of the commodity prices on each of the five averaging dates.

• The averaging dates are March 2, 2015, March 3, 2015, March 4, 2015, March 5, 2015 and March 6, 2015.

• Each review date and averaging date is subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events.

• The commodity percent change is equal to: (final commodity price – initial commodity price) / initial commodity price

• Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil.

• The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.

• The estimated value of the securities on the pricing date is approximately $974.50, or within $10.00 of that estimate. See “Summary of Pricing Supplement” beginning on PS-4

• The CUSIP number for the securities is 61762GBB9. The ISIN for the securities is US61762GBB95.

You should read the more detailed description of the securities in this pricing supplement. In particular, you should review and understand the descriptions in “Summary of Pricing Supplement” and “Description of Securities.”

The securities are riskier than ordinary debt securities. Securities linked to the performance of a single commodity are subject to the volatility and other risks associated with that commodity. See “Risk Factors” beginning on PS-12.

SUMMARY OF PRICING SUPPLEMENT

The following summary describes the Autocallable Quarterly Review Notes due March 11, 2015 with Step-Down Call Level Feature Based on the Performance of West Texas Intermediate Light Sweet Crude Oil, which we refer to as the securities, we are offering to you in general terms only. You should read the summary together with the more detailed information that is contained in the rest of this pricing supplement and in the accompanying prospectus and prospectus supplement. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in “Risk Factors.”

The securities offered are medium-term debt securities of Morgan Stanley. The return on the securities is linked to the performance of West Texas Intermediate light sweet crude oil (“WTI crude oil”), which we refer to as the underlying commodity . The securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income in exchange for the possibility of receiving a call price or payment at maturity greater than the stated principal amount, if the commodity price on a review date or the final commodity price, as applicable, is at or above the then applicable call level, and, if the securities have not been called, in exchange for limited protection against loss at maturity, but only if the final commodity price has not declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price . The securities do not guarantee the return of any principal at maturity , and all payments on the securities are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

The securities are riskier than ordinary debt securities. Securities linked to the performance of a single commodity are subject to the volatility and other risks associated with that commodity. See “Risk Factors” beginning on PS-12 .

Each security costs $1,000
The original issue price includes costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be less than $1 ,00 0. We estimate that the value of each security on the pricing date will be approximately $974.50, or within $10.00 of that estimate. Our estimate of the value of the securities 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 securities on the pricing date, we take into account that the securities comprise both a debt component and a performance-based component linked to the underlying commodity. The estimated value of the securities is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the underlying commodity, instruments based on the underlying commodity, 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 securities? In determining the economic terms of the securities, including the call levels and the call prices, 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 securities 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 securities?

PS-4

The price at which Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, which we refer to as MS & Co., purchases the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying commodity, 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 securities 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 securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying commodity, 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. MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time.
The securities do not guarantee repayment of any principal at maturity; no interest Unlike ordinary debt securities, the securities do not pay interest and do not guarantee the repayment of any of the principal at maturity. If the securities have not been called prior to maturity and the final commodity price has declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, you will be fully exposed to the negative performance of the underlying commodity, and you will lose 1% of your principal amount for every 1% decline in the final commodity price from the initial commodity price . For example, if the final commodity price declines by 50% from the initial commodity price, you will lose 50% of your principal. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities. Accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment in the securities.
The securities will be automatically called if the commodity price on any of the three review dates is at or above the then applicable call level If the commodity price on any of the three review dates is at or above the then applicable call level as specified below, the securities will be automatically called for the call price on the third business day following the related review date, which we refer to as a call date. The call price will be an amount of cash that will vary depending on the applicable review date as follows:
• if the commodity price on June 6, 2014, the first review date, is at or above the call level of $ , which is equal to 100% of the initial commodity price, the securities will be called for $1,027.50 per security (corresponding to 102.75% of the stated principal amount), or • if the commodity price on September 8, 2014, the second review date, is at or above the call level of $ , which is equal to 95% of the initial commodity price, the securities will be called for $1,055.00 per security (corresponding to 105.50% of the stated principal amount), or • if the commodity price on December 8, 2014, the third review date, is at or above the call level of $ , which is equal to 90% of the initial commodity price, the securities will be called for $1,082.50 per security (corresponding to 108.25% of the stated principal amount)
Each review date is subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events as described under “Description of Securities—Review Dates.”
If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, the payment At maturity, if the securities have not previously been called, you will receive for each $1 ,00 0 stated principal amount of securities that you hold an amount of cash that will

PS-5

at maturity will vary depending on the final commodity price
• if the final commodity price is less than $ , which means it has declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price: $1, 000 + ($1,000 x commodity percent change)
where,
commodity percent change = final commodity price – initial commodity price
initial commodity price
initial commodity price = the commodity price on February 21, 2014, which is the day we price the securities for initial sale to the public, which we refer to as the pricing date
final commodity price = the arithmetic average of the commodity prices on each of the five averaging dates
averaging dates = March 2, 2015, March 3, 2015, March 4, 2015, March 5, 2015 and March 6, 2015, subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events as described under “Description of Securities—Averaging Dates”
commodity price = on any trading day, the official settlement price per barrel of WTI crude oil on the New York Mercantile Exchange (the “NYMEX”) Division of the first nearby month futures contract, stated in U.S. dollars, as made public by the NYMEX Division on such date
If the final commodity price declines by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, you will be fully exposed to the decline in the final commodity price from the initial commodity price. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities. Accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment in the securities. All payments on the securities upon an automatic early call or at maturity are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.
Beginning on PS-10, we have provided examples titled “Hypothetical Payouts on the Securities upon Automatic Call or at Maturity , ” which explain in more detail the possible payouts on the securities on each call date and at maturity assuming a variety of hypothetical commodity prices for each review date and hypothetical final commodity prices, as applicable. The hypothetical examples do not show every situation that can occur.
You can review the historical prices of the underlying commodity in the section of this pricing supplement called “Description of Securities—Historical Information” starting on PS-27. You cannot predict the future price of the underlying commodity based on its historical prices.

PS-6

Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil .
The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the fixed returns specified for each call date and at maturity and by the automatic early call feature The appreciation potential of the securities is limited to the fixed return specified for each review date and at maturity, regardless of any greater price performance of the underlying commodity, which could be significant. In addition, the automatic early call feature may limit the term of your investment to as short as three months. If the securities are called prior to maturity, you may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns.
Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or in forward contracts on WTI crude oil. By purchasing the securities, you do not purchase any entitlement to WTI crude oil or futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil. Further, by purchasing the securities, you are assuming the credit risk of Morgan Stanley and not that of any counter-party to futures contracts or forward contracts on the underlying commodity.
Concentrated investment in WTI crude oil All payments on the securities are linked exclusively to the price of WTI crude oil and not to a diverse basket of commodities or a broad-based commodity index. Therefore, the securities carry greater risk and may be more volatile than a security linked to the prices of multiple commodities or a broad-based commodity index.
Postponement of maturity date If, due to a market disruption event or otherwise, the last averaging date 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 the last averaging date as postponed. See “Description of Securities—Maturity Date.”
Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. will be the calculation agent We have appointed our affiliate, Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc., which we refer to as MSCG, to act as calculation agent for The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation (as successor trustee to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), the trustee for our senior securities. As calculation agent, MSCG will determine the initial commodity price (and, as a result, each applicable call level), the commodity price on each review date, the final commodity price, whether the commodity price on any of the three review dates is at or above the then applicable call level and therefore whether the securities will be called following such review date and whether a market disruption event has occurred, and, if the securities are not called prior to maturity, will calculate the amount of cash, if any, you will receive at maturity.
Morgan Stanley & Co . LLC will be the agent; conflicts of interest The agent for the offering of the securities, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, which we refer to as 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. See “Description of Securities—Supplemental Information Concerning Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest.”
You may revoke your offer to purchase the securities prior to our acceptance We are using this pricing supplement to solicit from you an offer to purchase the securities. You may revoke your offer to purchase the securities at any time prior to the time at which we accept such offer by notifying the relevant agent. We reserve the right to change the terms of, or reject any offer to purchase, the securities prior to their issuance. In the event of any material changes to the terms of the securities, we

PS-7

will notify you.
Where you can find more information on the securities The securities are unsecured securities issued as part of our Series F medium-term note program. You can find a general description of our Series F medium-term note program in the accompanying prospectus supplement dated November 21, 2011 and prospectus dated November 21, 2011 . We describe the basic features of this type of security in the section of the prospectus supplement called “Description of Securities—Securities Linked to Commodity Prices, Single Securities, Baskets of Securities or Indices” and in the section of the prospectus called “Description of Debt Securities—Fixed Rate Debt Securities.”
For a detailed description of the terms of the securities, you should read the section of this pricing supplement called “Description of Securities . ” You should also read about some of the risks involved in investing in the securities in the section of this pricing supplement called “Risk Factors.” The tax and accounting treatment of investments in commodity-linked securities such as the securities may differ from that of investments in ordinary debt securities.

HOW THE SECURITIES WORK

The following diagrams illustrate the potential outcomes for the securities depending on the commodity price on each of the review dates and the final commodity price, as applicable.

Diagram #1: Automatic Early Call (Starting June 2014)

Diagram #2: Payment at Maturity if No Automatic Early Call Occurs

HYPOTHETICAL PAYOUTS ON THE SECURITIES UPON AUTOMATIC CALL OR AT MATURITY

The following examples illustrate the payout on the securities for a range of commodity prices for each of the review dates and a range of final commodity prices, as applicable, and are being provided for illustrative purposes only. These examples are based on the following terms:

• Hypothetical Initial Commodity Price: $100

• Hypothetical Call Level:

o $100 for the first review date

o $95 for the second review date

o $90 for the third review date

o $85 at maturity

• Call Price:

o $1,027.50 if the securities are automatically called immediately after the June 6, 2014 review date

o $1,055.00 if the securities are automatically called immediately after the September 8, 2014 review date.

o $1,082.50 if the securities are automatically called immediately after the December 8, 2014 review date

• Payment at Maturity if the final commodity price is at or above the then applicable call level: $1,110.00

• Stated Principal Amount (per security): $1,000

The actual Initial Commodity Price and Call Levels will be determined on the pricing date.

• In Examples 1 through 3, the commodity price on one of the three review dates is at or above the then applicable call level. However, each example results in a different payment amount because the commodity price is at or above the then applicable call level on different review dates. Because the commodity price on one of the three review dates is at or above the then applicable call level, the securities are automatically called following the relevant review date. In each of Examples 4, 5 and 6, the commodity price on each of the three review dates is lower than the then applicable call level, and, consequently, the securities are not automatically called prior to, and remain outstanding until, maturity.

Review Date Example 1 — Hypothetical Commodity Price Payout Example 2 — Hypothetical Commodity Price Payout Example 3 — Hypothetical Commodity Price Payout
#1 $105 $1,027.50 $98 $95
#2 $100 $1,055.00 $92
#3 $91 $1,082.50
Total Payout: $1,027.50 immediately after the June 6, 2014 review date. $1,055.00 immediately after the September 8, 2014 review date $1,082.50 immediately after the December 8, 2014 review date

• Note that in example 3, the securities are called after the third review date even if the commodity price on the third review date is less than the commodity prices on the first and second review dates and less than the call levels applicable to the first and second review dates. This illustrates the impact of the step-down feature of the call level.

Review Date Example 4 — Hypothetical Commodity Price Payout Example 5 — Hypothetical Commodity Price Payout Example 6 — Hypothetical Commodity Price Payout
#1 $95 $95 $95
#2 $92 $92 $92
#3 $88 $88 $88
Final commodity price $130 $1,110.00 $82 $1,000 $60 $600
Total Payout: $1,110.00 at maturity $1,000 at maturity $600 at maturity

• In Example 4, the final commodity price is $130, which is higher than the then applicable call level of $85 and represents a 30% increase in the initial commodity price. The payment at maturity equals $1,110.00 per security, representing a 11.00% return on your investment. The return on your investment would be less than the 30% return you would receive on a comparable investment linked to the simple return on the underlying commodity.

PS-10

• In Example 5, the final commodity price is $82, which is lower than the then applicable call level of $85 and represents a 18% decline from the initial commodity price. Because the final commodity price has not declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, the payment at maturity equals the Stated Principal Amount of $1,000 per security.

• In Example 6, the final commodity price is $60, which represents a 40% decline from the initial commodity price. Because the final commodity price has declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, investors are exposed to that decline on a 1 to 1 basis and will receive a payment at maturity that represents a 40% loss of their principal, calculated as follows:

$1,000 + ($1,000 x commodity percent change) = $1,000 + ($1,000 x –40%) = $600

PS-11

RISK FACTORS

The securities are not secured debt, are riskier than ordinary debt securities, do not pay any interest and, unlike ordinary debt securities, do not guarantee the return of any principal at maturity . Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil. This section describes the most significant risks relating to the securities. For a complete list of risk factors, please see the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. You should carefully consider whether the securities are suited to your particular circumstances before you decide to purchase them.

The securities do not pay interest or guarantee the return of any principal at maturity The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that we do not pay you interest on the securities and do not guarantee to pay you any of the principal at maturity. Instead, if the securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity, you will receive at maturity for each security you hold an amount in cash that will vary depending on the arithmetic average of the commodity prices on five averaging dates, which we refer to as the final commodity price. If the final commodity price has declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, you will be fully exposed to the negative performance of the underlying commodity, and will lose 1% of your stated principal amount for every 1% decline in the final commodity price from the initial commodity price. For example, if the final commodity price declines by 50% from the initial commodity price, you will lose 50% of your principal. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities. Accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment in the securities.
The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the fixed returns specified for each call date and at maturity and by the automatic early call feature The appreciation potential of the securities is limited to the fixed return specified for each review date and at maturity, regardless of any greater price performance of the underlying commodity, which could be significant. In addition, the automatic early call feature may limit the term of your investment to as short as three months. If the securities are called prior to maturity, you may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns.
The market price of the securities may be influenced by many unpredictable factors Several factors, some of which are beyond our control, will influence the value of the securities in the secondary market and the price at which Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, which we refer to as MS & Co., may be willing to purchase or sell the securities in the secondary market. We expect that generally the market price of the underlying commodity on any day will affect the value of the securities more than any other single factor. However, because the payout on the securities is not directly correlated to the underlying commodity, the securities will trade differently from the underlying commodity. Factors that may influence the value of the securities include: • the market price of the underlying commodity and futures contracts on the underlying commodity, including in relation to the call levels , and the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of such values or prices, as applicable; • trends of supply and demand for the underlying commodity at any time, as well as the effects of speculation or any government actions that could affect the markets for the underlying commodity; • interest and yield rates in the market; • geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the commodities markets generally and which may affect the price of the underlying commodity; • the time remaining until the next review date and the maturity of the securities;

PS-12

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 a sale of the securities prior to maturity may result in a loss. For example, you may have to sell your securities at a substantial loss if on that date the commodity price is below the then applicable call level . You cannot predict the future prices of the underlying commodity based on its historical prices. If the securities are not called prior to maturity and the final commodity price declines by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, you will be fully exposed to any decline in the final commodity price from the initial commodity price and, as a result, you may lose some or all of your investment at maturity. There can be no assurance that the securities will be called prior to maturity or that the final commodity price will be at or above the then applicable call level such that you will receive at maturity an amount that is greater than the principal amount of your investment.
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 .
Investments linked to a single commodity are subject to sharp fluctuations in commodity prices, and the price of WTI crude oil may change unpredictably and affect the value of the securities in unforeseeable ways Investments, such as the securities, linked to the price of a single commodity such as WTI crude oil are subject to significant fluctuations in the price of the commodity over short periods due to a variety of factors. Demand for refined petroleum products by consumers, as well as by 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 are affected by political events, labor activity, developments in production technology such as fracking 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 the Petroleum Exporting Countries 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. WTI crude oil is also subject to the risk that it has demonstrated a lack of correlation with world crude

PS-13

oil prices due to structural differences between the U.S. market for crude oil and the international market for crude oil. As a result, the price of WTI crude oil may be more volatile than world crude oil prices generally. See “Description of Securities—Historical Information.”
Single commodity prices tend to be more volatile than, and may not correlate with, the prices of commodities generally The payment on the securities is linked exclusively to the price of WTI crude oil and not to a diverse basket of commodities or a broad-based commodity index. The price of WTI crude oil may not correlate to, and may diverge significantly from, the prices of commodities generally. Because the securities are linked to the price of a single commodity, they carry greater risk and may be more volatile than a security linked to the prices of multiple commodities or a broad-based commodity index. The price of WTI crude oil may be, and has recently been, highly volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen.
The amount payable on the securities is not linked to the performance of the underlying commodity at any time other than the review dates and the averaging dates, as applicable Whether the securities will be called on any call date and, if the securities have not been called prior to maturity, the amount payable on the securities at maturity will be based on the commodity price on the relevant review date and the averaging dates, as applicable. Even if the underlying commodity appreciates prior to a review date or the averaging dates but then drops by such review date or averaging dates, as applicable: (i) with respect to any of the three review dates, the securities may not be called and (ii) with respect to the averaging dates, the payment at maturity may be significantly less than it would have been had the payment at maturity been linked to the performance of the underlying commodity prior to such drop. Although the actual commodity price on the maturity date or at other times during the term of the securities may be higher than the commodity price on the review dates or the averaging dates, the payout on the securities will be based solely on the commodity price on the review dates or the averaging dates, as applicable .
The automatic call feature may limit the term of your investment to three months The term of your investment in the securities may be limited to as short as approximately three months by the automatic early call feature of the securities. If the securities are called prior to maturity, you may be forced to invest in a lower interest rate environment and may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns.
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 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 securities, 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 securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Since other broker-dealers may not 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 to cease making 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.
Hedging and trading activity by our subsidiaries could potentially adversely One or more of our subsidiaries and/or third-party dealers expect to carry out hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the underlying commodity), including trading in futures contracts on the underlying commodity, and possibly in other instruments related to the underlying commodity.

PS-14

affect the value of the securities Some of our subsidiaries also trade the underlying commodity and other financial instruments related to the underlying commodity on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer, commodity trading, proprietary trading and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could increase the initial commodity price and, as a result, the applicable call level at or above which the commodity price must be on any of the review dates in order for the securities to be automatically called prior to maturity or, if the securities are not called prior to maturity, the level at or above which the final commodity price must be so that investors do not suffer a loss on their initial investment in the securities. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially affect the price of the underlying commodity on the review dates and the averaging dates and, accordingly, whether the securities are automatically called prior to maturity and, if the securities are not called prior to maturity, the amount of cash, if any, you receive at maturity.
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 securities in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the securities, cause the estimated value of the securities 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 securities 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 securities in the original issue price and the lower rate we are willing to pay as issuer make the economic terms of the securities less favorable to you than they otherwise would be. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities 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 securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying commodity, and to our secondary market 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 securities 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 securities than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to value the securities. 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 securities in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your securities at any time after the date of this pricing supplement 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 securities may be influenced by many unpredictable factors” above .
The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of the issuer, will make determinations with As calculation agent, MSCG will determine the initial commodity price (and, as a result, each applicable call level), the commodity price on each review date, the final commodity price, whether the commodity price on any of the three review dates is at or above the then applicable call level and therefore whether the securities will be called following such review date and whether a market disruption event has

PS-15

respect to the securities occurred, and, if the securities are not called prior to maturity, will calculate the amount of cash, if any, 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 or calculation of the commodity price in the event of a market disruption event, may adversely affect the payout to you on the securities. See the section of this pricing supplement called “Description of Securities—Market Disruption Event.” In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date.
Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in WTI crude oil or in futures contracts or in forward contracts on WTI crude oil. By purchasing the securities, you do not purchase any entitlement to WTI crude oil or futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil. Further, by purchasing the securities, you are taking credit risk to Morgan Stanley and not to any counter-party to futures contracts or forward contracts on WTI crude oil.
An investment linked to commodity futures contracts is not equivalent to an investment linked to the spot prices of physical commodities The securities have returns based on the change in price of futures contracts on the underlying commodity, not the change in the spot price of actual physical commodity to which such futures contracts relate. The price of a futures contract reflects the expected value of the commodity upon delivery in the future, whereas the price of a physical commodity reflects the value of such commodity upon immediate delivery, which is referred to as the spot price. Several factors can result in differences between the price of a commodity futures contract and the spot price of a commodity, including the cost of storing such commodity for the length of the futures contract, interest costs related to financing the purchase of such commodity and expectations of supply and demand for such commodity. While the changes in the price of a futures contract are usually correlated with the changes in the spot price, such correlation is not exact. In some cases, the performance of a commodity futures contract can deviate significantly from the spot price performance of the related underlying commodity, especially over longer periods of time. Accordingly, investments linked to the return of commodities futures contracts may underperform similar investments that reflect the spot price return on physical commodities.
Differences between futures prices and the spot price of WTI crude oil may decrease the amount payable at maturity The initial commodity price and final commodity price that are used to determine the payment at maturity on the securities are determined by reference to the settlement price of the first nearby month futures contract for WTI crude oil on the pricing date and averaging dates, respectively, and will not therefore reflect the spot price of WTI crude oil on such dates. The market for futures contracts on WTI crude oil has experienced periods of backwardation, in which futures prices are lower than the spot price, and periods of contango, in which futures prices are higher than the spot price. If the contract is in backwardation on the pricing date or in contango on the averaging dates, the amount payable at maturity on the securities will be less than if the initial commodity price or final commodity price, respectively, was determined with reference to the spot price.
Suspension or disruptions of market trading in WTI crude oil futures contracts may adversely affect the value of the securities The futures market for WTI crude oil is 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, the contract is listed on the NYMEX. NYMEX has limits on 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. The current maximum daily price fluctuation for futures contracts of WTI crude oil is $10 per barrel for any

PS-16

particular month of delivery. If any contract is traded, bid, or offered at the limit for five minutes, trading is halted for five minutes. When trading resumes, the limit is expanded by $10 per barrel in either direction. If another halt is triggered, the market would continue to be expanded by $10 per barrel in either direction after each successive five-minute trading halt. There are no maximum price fluctuation limits during any one trading session. Fluctuation limits will have the effect of precluding trading in the contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts at disadvantageous times or prices. These circumstances could adversely affect the value of WTI crude oil futures contracts and, therefore, the value of the securities.
Legal and regulatory changes could adversely affect the return on and value of your securities Futures contracts and options on futures contracts, including those related to the underlying commodity, are subject to extensive statutes, regulations, and margin requirements. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission, commonly referred to as the “CFTC,” and the exchanges on which such futures contracts trade , are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency, including, for example, the retroactive implementation of speculative position limits or higher margin requirements, the establishment of daily limits and the suspension of trading. Furthermore, certain exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuations in futures contract prices that may occur during a single five-minute trading period. These limits could adversely affect the market prices of relevant futures and options contracts and forward contracts. The regulation of commodity transactions in the U.S. is subject to ongoing modification by government and judicial action. In addition, various non-U.S. governments have expressed concern regarding the disruptive effects of speculative trading in the commodity markets and the need to regulate the derivative markets in general. The effect on the value of the securities of any future regulatory change is impossible to predict, but could be substantial and adverse to the interests of holders of the securities. For example, the Dodd-Frank Act, which was enacted on July 21, 2010, requires the CFTC to establish limits on the amount of positions that may be held by any person in futures contracts on a commodity, options on such futures contracts and swaps that are economically equivalent to such contracts. When adopted, such rules could interfere with our ability to enter into or maintain hedge positions in instruments subject to the limits, and consequently, we may need to decide, or be forced, to sell a portion, possibly a substantial portion, of our hedge position in such commodity or futures contracts on such commodity or related contracts. Similarly, other market participants would be subject to the same regulatory issues and could decide, or be required , to sell their positions in such commodity or futures contracts on such commodity or related contracts. While the effects of these or other regulatory developments are difficult to predict, if this broad market selling were to occur, it would likely lead to declines, possibly significant declines, in the price of such commodity or futures contracts on such commodity and therefore, the value of the securities.
The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain Please note that the discussions in this pricing supplement concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities supersede the discussions contained in the accompanying prospectus supplement. Subject to the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in this pricing supplement, although there is uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities due to the lack of governing authority, in the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP (“our counsel”), under current law, and based on current market conditions, a security should be treated as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the timing and

PS-17

character of income on the securities might differ significantly. For example, under one possible treatment, the IRS could seek to recharacterize the securities as debt instruments. In that event, U.S. Holders would 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. Because the securities provide for the return of principal unless the final commodity price has declined by more than 20% from the initial commodity price, the risk that a security would be recharacterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a debt instrument giving rise to ordinary income, rather than as an open transaction, is higher than with other commodity-linked securities that do not contain similar provisions. We do 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 this pricing supplement. Please read carefully the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in this pricing supplement concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities. 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 securities, possibly with retroactive effect. Both U.S. and Non-U.S. Holders should read carefully the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in this pricing supplement and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal 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.

Automatic Early Call If, on any of the three Review Dates, the Commodity Price is at or above the then applicable Call Level, we will call the Securities, in whole and not in part, for the applicable Call Price on the third Business Day following such Review Date (as may be postponed under “––Review Dates” below) (the “Call Date”). In the event that the Securities are subject to Automatic Early Call, we will, or will cause the Calculation Agent to, (i) on the Business Day following the applicable Review Date (as may be postponed under “––Review Dates” below), give notice of the Automatic Early Call of the Securities and the applicable Call Price, including specifying the payment date of the applicable amount due upon the Automatic Early Call (the Call Date), to the Trustee, upon which notice the Trustee may conclusively rely, and to The Depository Trust Company, which we refer to as DTC, and (ii) deliver the aggregate cash amount due with respect to the Securities to the Trustee for delivery to DTC, as holder of the Securities, on or prior to the applicable Call Date . See “—Book -

PS-19

Entry Note or Certificated Note” below, and see “Forms of Securities—The Depositary” in the accompanying prospectus.
Call Level The Call Level will equal:
• for the first Review Date, $ , which is equal to 100% of the Initial Commodity Price, • for the second Review Date, $ , which is equal to 95% of the Initial Commodity Price, • for the third Review Date, $ , which is equal to 90% of the Initial Commodity Price, or • with respect to the Payment at Maturity, $ , which is equal to 85% of the Initial Commodity Price.
Call Price The Call Price will equal:
• $1,027.50 (corresponding to 102.75% of the Stated Principal Amount), if the Automatic Early Call occurs with respect to the first Review Date, • $1,055.00 (corresponding to 105.50% of the Stated Principal Amount), if the Automatic Early Call occurs with respect to the second Review Date, or • $1,082.50 (corresponding to 108.25% of the Stated Principal Amount), if the Automatic Early Call occurs with respect to the third Review Date.
Payment at Maturity If the Securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity, you will receive for each $1,000 Stated Principal Amount of Securities that you hold a Payment at Maturity equal to:
• if the Final Commodity Price is at or above the then applicable Call Level of $ , $1,110.00 (corresponding to 111.00% of the Stated Principal Amount), • if the Final Commodity Price is less than the then applicable Call Level of $ , but is greater than or equal to $ , which means it has not declined by more than 20% from the Initial Commodity Price, the $1,000 Stated Principal Amount, or • if the Final Commodity Price is less than $ , which means it has declined by more than 20% from the Initial Commodity Price,
$1,000 + ($1,000 x Commodity Percent Change)

PS-20

If the Final Commodity Price declines by more than 20% from the Initial Commodity Price, you will be fully exposed to the decline in the Final Commodity Price from the Initial Commodity Price. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Securities. Accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment in the Securities.
We shall, or shall cause the Calculation Agent to, (i) provide written notice to the Trustee, upon which notice the Trustee may conclusively rely, and to DTC of the amount of cash, if any, to be delivered with respect to each $1,000 Stated Principal Amount of Securities on or prior to 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding the Maturity Date, and (ii) deliver the aggregate cash amount, if any, due with respect to the Securities to the Trustee for delivery to DTC, as holder of the Securities, on or prior to the Maturity Date. We expect such amount of cash, if any, will be distributed to investors on the Maturity Date in accordance with the standard rules and procedures of DTC and its direct and indirect participants. See “—Book-Entry Note or Certificated Note” below, and see “Forms of Securities—The Depositary” in the accompanying prospectus.
Commodity Percent Change A fraction, the numerator of which is the Final Commodity Price minus the Initial Commodity Price and the denominator of which is the Initial Commodity Price, as described by the following formula:
Commodity Percent Change
Initial Commodity Price
Commodity Price The Commodity Price for the Underlying Commodity on any Trading Day will be determined by the Calculation Agent and will equal the official settlement price per barrel of WTI crude oil on the Relevant Exchange of the first nearby month futures contract, stated in U.S. dollars, as made public by the Relevant Exchange on such date.
Reuters, Bloomberg and various other third party sources may report prices of the Underlying Commodity. If any such reported price differs from that as published by the Relevant Exchange for the Underlying Commodity, the price as published by such Relevant Exchange will prevail.
Initial Commodity Price The Commodity Price on the Pricing Date, provided that if the Pricing Date is not a Trading Day with respect to the Underlying Commodity or if a Market Disruption Event occurs on the Pricing Date, the Initial Commodity Price will be determined on the immediately succeeding Trading Day on which no Market Disruption Event occurs, provided further that the Initial Commodity Price will not be determined on a date later than the third scheduled Trading Day following the Pricing Date. If such date is not a Trading Day with respect to the Underlying Commodity or if there is a Market Disruption Event on such date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Initial Commodity Price on such third scheduled Trading Day by requesting the principal

PS-21

office of each of the three leading dealers in the relevant market, selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide a quotation for the relevant price. If such quotations are provided as requested, the Initial Commodity Price shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than three quotations are provided as requested, the Initial Commodity Price shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion (acting in good faith) taking into account any information that it deems relevant.
If the Initial Commodity Price as finally published by the Relevant Exchange differs from the relevant Initial Commodity Price specified in the pricing supplement, we will include the definitive Initial Commodity Price in an amended pricing supplement.
Final Commodity Price The arithmetic average of the Commodity Prices on the each of the five Averaging Dates, as determined by the Calculation Agent.
Averaging Dates March 2, 2015, March 3, 2015, March 4, 2015, March 5, 2015 and March 6, 2015, provided that if any scheduled Averaging Date is not a Trading Day with respect to the Underlying Commodity or if a Market Disruption Event occurs on any scheduled Averaging Date, the Commodity Price for such scheduled Averaging Date will be determined on the immediately succeeding Trading Day on which no Market Disruption Event occurs. Each succeeding Averaging Date shall then be the next Trading Day following the preceding Averaging Date as postponed on which no Market Disruption Event occurs. The Final Commodity Price will be determined on the date on which the Commodity Prices for all scheduled Averaging Dates have been determined; provided that (i) the Commodity Price for any Averaging Date will not be determined on a date later than the tenth Business Day after the last scheduled Averaging Date, (ii) the Commodity Price for any remaining Averaging Dates that would otherwise fall after such tenth Business Day shall be the Commodity Price on such tenth Business Day and (iii) if such tenth Business Day is not a Trading Day with respect to the Underlying Commodity, or if there is a Market Disruption Event on such date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Commodity Price(s) for any such remaining Averaging Dates on such tenth Business Day by requesting the principal office of each of the three leading dealers in the relevant market, selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide a quotation for the relevant price. If such quotations are provided as requested, the Commodity Price(s) for any such remaining Averaging Dates will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than three quotations are provided as requested, such Commodity Price(s) shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion (acting in good faith) taking into account any information that it deems relevant.
Review Dates June 6, 2014 (first Review Date), September 8, 2014 (second Review Date) and December 8, 2014 (third Review Date); provided that if any scheduled Review Date is not a Trading Day with respect to the Underlying Commodity or if a Market Disruption Event occurs on any scheduled Review Date, such

PS-22

Review Date will be postponed and the Commodity Price will be determined on the immediately succeeding Trading Day on which no Market Disruption Event occurs. The Commodity Price as of any Review Date will not be determined on a date later than the third scheduled Trading Day following the relevant scheduled Review Date. If such date is not a Trading Day with respect to the Underlying Commodity or if there is a Market Disruption Event on such date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Commodity Price as of the relevant Review Date on such third scheduled Trading Day by requesting the principal office of each of the three leading dealers in the relevant market, selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide a quotation for the relevant price. If such quotations are provided as requested, the Commodity Price as of the relevant Review Date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than three quotations are provided as requested, such Commodity Price shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion (acting in good faith) taking into account any information that it deems relevant.

Relevant Exchange Relevant Exchange means the New York Mercantile Exchange (the “NYMEX Division”) or, if the NYMEX Division is no longer the principal exchange or trading market for the Underlying Commodity, such exchange or principal trading market for the Underlying Commodity that serves as the source of prices for the Underlying Commodity and any principal exchanges where options or futures contracts on the Underlying Commodity are traded.
Trading Day Trading Day means a day, as determined by the Calculation Agent, that is a day on which the Relevant Exchange is open for trading during its regular trading session, notwithstanding any such Relevant Exchange closing prior to its scheduled closing time.
Book Entry Note or Certificated Note Book Entry. The Securities will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered global securities which will be deposited with, or on behalf of, DTC and will be registered in the name of a nominee of DTC. DTC’s nominee will be the only registered holder of the Securities. Your beneficial interest in the Securities will be evidenced solely by entries on the books of the securities intermediary acting on your behalf as a direct or indirect participant in DTC. In this pricing supplement, all references to actions taken by “you” or to be taken by “you” refer to actions taken or to be taken by DTC and its participants acting on your behalf, and all references to payments or notices to you will mean payments or notices to DTC, as the registered holder of the Securities, for distribution to participants in accordance with DTC’s procedures. For more information regarding DTC and book-entry securities, please read “Forms of Securities—The Depositary” and “Forms of Securities—Global Securities—Registered Global Securities” in the accompanying prospectus.

Trustee The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation (as successor trustee to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank))
Agent MS & Co.
Calculation Agent Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. (“MSCG”) and its successors All determinations made by the Calculation Agent will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on you, the Trustee and us. All calculations and determinations with respect to the Automatic Early Call and the Payment at Maturity, if any, will be made by the Calculation Agent and will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth, with five one-millionths rounded upward ( e.g. , .876545 would be rounded to .87655); all dollar amounts related to determination of the amount of cash payable per Security, if any, will be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth,

PS-24

with five one hundred-thousandths rounded upward ( e.g. , .76545 would be rounded up to .7655); and all dollar amounts paid on the aggregate number of Securities, if any, will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward. Because the Calculation Agent is our affiliate, the economic interests of the Calculation Agent and its affiliates may be adverse to your interests as an investor in the Securities, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the Calculation Agent must make in determining the Initial Commodity Price, the Commodity Price on each Review Date, the Final Commodity Price, whether the Commodity Price on any Review Date is at or above the then applicable Call Level and therefore whether the Securities will be called following such Review Date, or whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred, and, if the Securities are not called prior to maturity, the Payment at Maturity, if any. See “––Market Disruption Event” below. MSCG is obligated to carry out its duties and functions as Calculation Agent in good faith and using its reasonable judgment.

Alternate Exchange Calculation in Case of an Event of Default If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing, the amount declared due and payable upon any acceleration of the Securities (the “Acceleration Amount”) will be an amount, determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion, that is equal to the cost of having a Qualified Financial Institution, of the kind and selected as described below, expressly assume all our payment and other obligations with respect to the Securities as of that day and as if no default or acceleration had occurred, or to undertake other obligations providing substantially equivalent economic value to you with respect to the Securities. That cost will equal: • the lowest amount that a Qualified Financial Institution would charge to effect this assumption or undertaking, plus • the reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the holders of the Securities in preparing any documentation necessary for this assumption or undertaking. During the Default Quotation Period for the Securities , which we describe below, the holders of the Securities and/or we may request a Qualified Financial Institution to provide a quotation of the amount it would charge to effect this assumption or undertaking. If either party obtains a quotation, it must notify the other party in writing of the quotation. The amount referred to in the first bullet point above will equal the lowest—or, if there is only one, the only—quotation obtained, and as to which notice is so given, during the Default Quotation Period. With respect to any quotation, however, the party not obtaining the quotation may object, on reasonable and significant grounds, to the assumption or undertaking by the Qualified Financial Institution providing the quotation and notify the other party in writing of those grounds

PS-25

within two Business Days after the last day of the Default Quotation Period, in which case that quotation will be disregarded in determining the Acceleration Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency of, or any analogous proceeding is filed with respect to Morgan Stanley, then depending on applicable bankruptcy law, your claim may be limited to an amount that could be less than the Acceleration Amount. 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 DTC of the Acceleration Amount and the aggregate cash amount due, if any, with respect to the Securities as promptly as possible and in no event later than two Business Days after the date of such acceleration. Default Quotation Period The Default Quotation Period is the period beginning on the day the Acceleration Amount first becomes due and ending on the third Business Day after that day, unless: • no quotation of the kind referred to above is obtained, or • every quotation of that kind obtained is objected to within five Business Days after the due date as described above. If either of these two events occurs, the Default Quotation Period will continue until the third Business Day after the first Business Day on which prompt notice of a quotation is given as described above. If that quotation is objected to as described above within five Business Days after that first Business Day, however, the Default Quotation Period will continue as described in the prior sentence and this sentence. In any event, if the Default Quotation Period and the subsequent two Business Day objection period have not ended before the last Averaging Date, then the Acceleration Amount will equal the principal amount of the Securities. Qualified Financial Institutions For the purpose of determining the Acceleration Amount at any time, a Qualified Financial Institution must be a financial institution organized under the laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or Europe, which at that time has outstanding debt obligations with a stated maturity of one year or less from the date of issue and rated either:
• A-2 or higher by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or any successor, or any other comparable rating then used by that rating agency, or

PS-26

• P-2 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service or any successor, or any other comparable rating then used by that rating agency.
Historical Information The following table sets forth the published high and low Commodity Prices, as well as end-of-quarter Commodity Prices, of the Underlying Commodity for each quarter in the period from January 1, 2009 through February 19, 2014. The related graph plots the daily Commodity Prices for the Underlying Commodity in the same period. The Commodity Price on February 19, 2014 was $103.31 . We obtained the information in the table and graph below from Bloomberg Financial Markets, without independent verification. The Commodity Price on each Review Date will be determined with reference to the official settlement price of the Underlying Commodity, as determined pursuant to “––Commodity Price” above, rather than the prices published by Bloomberg Financial Markets on each such date. The historical performance of the Underlying Commodity set out in the table and graph below should not be taken as an indication of its future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Commodity Price on any of the Review Dates or as to the Final Commodity Price. If the Securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and if the Final Commodity Price has declined by more than the 20% from the Initial Commodity Price, you will lose some or all of your initial investment at maturity. We cannot give you any assurance that the Securities will be called prior to maturity or that, if the Securities are not called, the Final Commodity Price will be at or above the then applicable Call Level so that at maturity you will receive a payment that is greater than the Stated Principal Amount of the Securities. The price of the Underlying Commodity may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen.

Use of Proceeds and Hedging The proceeds we receive from the sale of the Securities will be used for general corporate purposes. We will receive, in aggregate, $1,000 per Security issued, because, when we enter into hedging transactions in order to meet our obligations under the Securities, our hedging counterparty will reimburse the cost of the Agent’s commissions. The costs of the Securities borne by you and described beginning on PS-4 above comprise the Agent’s commissions and the cost of issuing, structuring and hedging the Securities . See also “Use of Proceeds” in the accompanying prospectus. On or prior to the Pricing Date, we will hedge our anticipated exposure in connection with the Securities by entering into hedging transactions with our subsidiaries and/or third party dealers. We expect our hedging counterparties to take positions in futures contracts on the Underlying Commodity or positions in any other available instruments that they may wish to use in connection with such hedging. Such purchase activity could potentially increase the Initial Commodity Price, and, as a result, the applicable Call Level at or above which the Commodity Price must be on any of the Review Dates in order for the Securities to be automatically called prior to maturity or, if the Securities are not called prior to maturity, the level at or above which the Final

PS-28

Commodity Price must be so that investors do not suffer a loss on their initial investment in the Securities. In addition, through our subsidiaries, we are likely to modify our hedge position throughout the life of the Securities by purchasing and selling futures contracts on the Underlying Commodity or positions in any other available instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging activities, including by selling any such instruments on one or more Review Dates or Averaging Dates. We cannot give any assurance that our hedging activities will not affect the Commodity Price and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the Securities, whether the Securities are called early, or the payment you will receive at maturity.

Supplemental Information Concerning Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the U.S. distribution agreement referred to in the prospectus supplement under “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest),” the Agent, acting as principal for its own account, has agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell, a portion of the Aggregate Principal Amount of Securities set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. MS & Co. will act as the Agent for this offering. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, acting as dealer, will receive from the Agent, a fixed sales commission of 1% for each Security it sells. In addition, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will purchase the a portion of the Aggregate Principal Amount of Securities from the Agent for sales to certain fiduciary accounts at a purchase price to such accounts of 99% of the Stated Principal Amount per Security and will forgo any sales commission with respect to such sales. After the initial offering of the Securities, the Agent may vary the offering price and other selling terms from time to time. 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 Securities. When MS & Co. prices this offering of securities, it will determine the economic terms of the Securities such that for each Security the estimated value on the Pricing Date will be no lower than the minimum level described in “Summary of Pricing Supplement” beginning on PS-4. 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 Securities, the Agent may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Securities. Specifically, the Agent may sell more Securities than it is obligated to purchase in connection with the offering, creating a naked short position in the Securities for its own account. The Agent must close out any naked short position

PS-29

by purchasing the Securities in the open market after the offering. A naked short position in the Securities is more likely to be created if the Agent is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Securities 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, Securities or futures contracts or other instruments on the Underlying Commodity in the open market to stabilize the price of the Securities. Any of these activities may raise or maintain the market price of the Securities above independent market prices or prevent or retard a decline in the market price of the Securities. The Agent is not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time. General No action has been or will be taken by us, the Agent or any dealer that would permit a public offering of the Securities or possession or distribution of this pricing supplement or the accompanying prospectus supplement or prospectus in any jurisdiction, other than the United States, where action for that purpose is required. No offers, sales or deliveries of the Securities, or distribution of this pricing supplement or the accompanying prospectus supplement or prospectus or any other offering material relating to the Securities, may be made in or from any jurisdiction except in circumstances which will result in compliance with any applicable laws and regulations and will not impose any obligations on us, the Agent or any dealer. The Agent has represented and agreed, and each dealer through which we may offer the Securities has represented and agreed, that it (i) will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in force in each non-U.S. jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers the Securities or possesses or distributes this pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus and (ii) will obtain any consent, approval or permission required by it for the purchase, offer or sale by it of the Securities under the laws and regulations in force in each non-U.S. jurisdiction to which it is subject or in which it makes purchases, offers or sales of the Securities. We shall not have responsibility for the Agent’s or any dealer’s compliance with the applicable laws and regulations or obtaining any required consent, approval or permission. Brazil The Securities have not been and will not be registered with the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (The Brazilian Securities Commission). The Securities may not be offered or sold in the Federative Republic of Brazil except in circumstances which do not constitute a public offering or distribution under Brazilian laws and regulations.

PS-31

subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore other than (i) to an institutional investor under Section 274 of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the “SFA”), (ii) to a relevant person pursuant Section 275(1), or any person pursuant to Section 275(1A), and in accordance with the conditions, specified in Section 275 of the SFA or (iii) otherwise pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provision of the SFA. Where the Securities are subscribed or purchased under Section 275 by a relevant person which is: (a) a corporation (which is not an accredited investor (as defined in Section 4A of the SFA)) the sole business of which is to hold investments and the entire share capital of which is owned by one or more individuals, each of whom is an accredited investor; or (b) a trust (where the trustee is not an accredited investor) whose sole purpose is to hold investments and each beneficiary of the trust is an individual who is an accredited investor, shares, debentures and units of shares and debentures of that corporation or the beneficiaries’ rights and interests (howsoever described) in that trust shall not be transferred within six months after that corporation or that trust has acquired the Securities pursuant to an offer made under Section 275 except: (1) to an institutional investor (for corporations under Section 274 of the SFA) or to a relevant person defined in Section 275(2) of the SFA, or to any person pursuant to an offer that is made on terms that such shares, debentures and units of shares and debentures of that corporation or such rights and interest in that trust are acquired at a consideration of not less than S$200,000 (or its equivalent in a foreign currency) for each transaction, whether such amount is to be paid for in cash or by exchange of securities or other assets, and further for corporations, in accordance with the conditions specified in Section 275 of the SFA; (2) where no consideration is or will be given for the transfer; or (3) where the transfer is by operation of law.

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”), which we refer to as 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

PS-32

(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 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 thereof that either (a) it is not a plan or a plan asset entity, is not purchasing such Securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any plan, or with any assets of a

PS-33

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 or 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 these Securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any plan consult with their counsel regarding the availability of exemptive relief. The Securities are contractual financial instruments. The financial exposure provided by the Securities 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 Securities. The Securities 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 Securities. Each purchaser or holder of any Securities 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 Securities, (B) the purchaser or holder’s investment in the Securities, or (C) the exercise of or failure to exercise any rights we have under or with respect to the Securities; (ii) we and our affiliates have acted and will act solely for our own account in connection with (A) all transactions relating to the Securities and (B) all hedging transactions in connection with our obligations under the Securities; (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.

PS-34

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 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 Securities by the account, plan or annuity. 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 Securities, either directly or indirectly.
United States Federal Taxation Prospective investors should note that the discussion under the section called “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus supplement does not apply to the Securities issued under this pricing supplement and is superseded by the following discussion. The following summary is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences and certain estate tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the Securities. This discussion applies only to initial investors in the Securities who: · purchase the Securities at their “issue price,” which will equal the first price at which a substantial amount of the Securities is sold to the public (not including bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers); and · will hold the Securities as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). This discussion does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a holder in light of the holder’s particular circumstances or to holders subject to special rules, such as:
● certain financial institutions; ● insurance companies; ● certain dealers and traders in securities, commodities or foreign currencies;

PS-35

· investors holding the Securities as part of a hedging transaction, “straddle,” wash sale, conversion transaction, integrated transaction or constructive sale transaction; · U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; · partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes; · regulated investment companies; · real estate investment trusts; · tax-exempt entities, including “individual retirement accounts” or “Roth IRAs” as defined in Section 408 or 408A of the Code, respectively; or · persons subject to the alternative minimum tax. As stated above, this discussion does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a holder in light of the holder’s particular circumstances. As the law applicable to the U.S. federal income taxation of instruments such as the Securities is technical and complex, the discussion below necessarily represents only a general summary. Moreover, the effect of any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws is not discussed, nor are any consequences resulting from the Medicare tax on investment income. This discussion is based on the Code, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, all as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this pricing supplement may affect the tax consequences described herein. Persons considering the purchase of the Securities should consult their tax advisers with regard to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction. General Although there is uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities due to the lack of governing authority, in the opinion of our counsel, under current law, and based on current market conditions, a Security should be treated as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Due to the absence of statutory, judicial or administrative authorities that directly address the treatment of the Securities or instruments that are similar to the Securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or a court will agree with the treatment described herein. Accordingly, you should consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities (including possible alternative treatments of the Securities) and with respect to any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing

PS-36

jurisdiction. Unless otherwise stated, the following discussion is based on the treatment of a Security as an open transaction. Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders This section applies to you only if you are a U.S. Holder. As used herein , the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
· a citizen or individual resident of the United States; · a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; or · an estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source. The term “U.S. Holder” also includes certain former citizens and residents of the United States. Tax Treatment of the Securities Assuming the characterization of the Securities as set forth above is respected, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result. Tax Treatment Prior to Settlement. 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 as described below. Tax Basis . A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Securities should equal the amount paid by the U.S. Holder to acquire the Securities. Sale, Exchange or Settlement of the Securities. Upon a sale, exchange or settlement of the Securities, a U.S. Holder should recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange or settlement and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Securities sold, exchanged or settled. Any gain or loss recognized upon the 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 at such time, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise. Possible Alternative Tax Treatments of an Investment in the Securities Due to the absence of authorities that directly address the proper tax treatment of the Securities, no assurance can be given that the IRS will accept, or that a court will uphold, the treatment described above. The IRS could, for instance, seek to treat a Security as a debt instrument. Because the Securities provide for the return of principal unless the Final Commodity Price has declined by more than 20% from the Initial Commodity Price, the risk that a Security would be recharacterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a debt instrument giving rise to ordinary

PS-37

income, rather than as an open transaction, is higher than with other commodity-linked securities that do not contain similar provisions. If a Security were treated as a debt instrument for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it would be subject to Treasury regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments (the “Contingent Debt Regulations”). If the Contingent Debt Regulations applied to the Securities, the timing and character of income thereon would be significantly affected. Among other things, a U.S. Holder would be required to accrue into income original issue discount (“OID”) on the Securities every year at a “comparable yield” determined at the time of their issuance. Furthermore, any gain realized by a U.S. Holder at maturity or upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of the Securities would generally be treated as ordinary income, and any loss realized at maturity would be treated as ordinary loss, to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s prior accruals of OID, and as capital loss thereafter. Even if the Contingent Debt Regulations do not apply to the Securities, other alternative U.S. federal income tax treatments of the Securities are possible, which, if applied, could significantly affect the timing and character of the income or loss with respect to the Securities. 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; 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 Securities, possibly with retroactive effect. Accordingly, prospective investors should consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, including the possible implications of this notice. Backup Withholding and Information Reporting Backup withholding may apply in respect of the amounts paid to a U.S. Holder, unless such U.S. Holder provides proof of an applicable exemption or a correct taxpayer identification number and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. The amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not an additional tax and may be

PS-38

refunded, or credited against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS. In addition, information returns may be filed with the IRS in connection with the payment on the Securities at maturity and the payment of proceeds from a sale, exchange or other disposition of the Securities, unless the U.S. Holder provides proof of an applicable exemption from the information reporting rules. Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders This section applies to you only if you are a Non-U.S. Holder. As used herein, the term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: · an individual who is classified as a nonresident alien; · a foreign corporation; or · a foreign estate or trust. The term “Non-U.S. Holder” does not include any of the following holders: · a holder who is an individual present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and who is not otherwise a resident of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes; · certain former citizens or residents of the United States; or · a holder for whom income or gain in respect of the Securities is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. Such holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities. Tax Treatment upon Sale, Exchange or Settlement of the Securities In general. Assuming the treatment of the Securities as set forth above is respected, and subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, a Non-U.S. Holder of the Securities will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax in respect of amounts paid to the Non-U.S. Holder. If all or any portion of a Security were recharacterized as a debt instrument, any payment made to a Non-U.S. Holder with respect to the Securities would not be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax, provided that: · the Non-U.S. Holder does not own, directly or by attribution, ten percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote; · the Non-U.S. Holder is not a controlled foreign corporation related, directly or indirectly, to us through stock ownership;

PS-39

· the Non-U.S. Holder is not a bank receiving interest under Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, and · the certification requirement described below has been fulfilled with respect to the beneficial owner. Certification Requirement. The certification requirement referred to in the preceding paragraph will be fulfilled if the beneficial owner of a Security (or a financial institution holding the Security on behalf of the beneficial owner) furnishes an IRS Form W-8BEN, on which the beneficial owner certifies under penalties of perjury that it is not a U.S. person. 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. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues might affect the withholding tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, possibly with retroactive effect. Non-U.S. Holders should note that we currently do not intend to withhold on any payments made with respect to the Securities to Non-U.S. Holders (subject to compliance by such holders with certification necessary to establish an exemption from backup withholding). However, in the event of a change of law or any formal or informal guidance by the IRS, the U.S. Treasury Department or Congress, we may decide to withhold on payments made with respect to the Securities to Non-U.S. Holders, and we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld. If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal withholding and income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the notice. U.S. Federal Estate Tax Individual Non-U.S. Holders and entities the property of which is potentially includible in such an individual’s gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes (for example, a trust funded by such an individual and with respect to which the individual has retained certain interests or powers), should note that, absent an applicable treaty exemption, the Securities may be treated as U.S. situs property subject to U.S. federal estate tax. Prospective investors that are non-U.S. individuals, or are entities of the type described above, should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal estate tax consequences of an investment in the Securities. Backup Withholding and Information Reporting Information returns may be filed with the IRS in connection with the payment on the Securities at maturity as well as in connection with the payment of proceeds from a sale, exchange or other disposition. A Non-U.S. Holder may be subject to backup withholding in respect of amounts paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, unless such Non-U.S. Holder complies with certification

PS-40

procedures to establish that it is not a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise establishes an exemption. Compliance with the certification procedures described above under “―Tax Treatment upon Sale, Exchange or Settlement of the Securities ― Certification Requirement” will satisfy the certification require ments necessary to avoid backup withholding as well. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a Non-U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against the Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle the Non-U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS. The discussion in the preceding paragraphs and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying free writing prospectus, 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 Securities .
