Principal at Risk Securities

The securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley, will pay no interest, provide for a payment at maturity that may be less than the face amount and have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS, index supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document. At maturity, if the basket has appreciated in value, investors will receive the face amount plus 140% participation in the upside performance of the basket, subject to the capped value of $1,570 per security. If the basket has depreciated in value, but not by more than 15%, the securities will redeem for the face amount. However, if the basket has depreciated in value by more than 15%, investors will receive less than the face amount and have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of 15%. Investors may lose up to 85% of the face amount of the securities. These long-dated securities are for investors who seek an equity funds-based return and who are willing to risk their investment and forgo current income and upside above the capped value in exchange for the participation rate and buffer features that in each case apply to a limited range of performance of the basket . 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, the basket or any securities held by the basket components .

Investment Summary

Leveraged Upside Participation to a Cap and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities

The Securities Linked to a Global ETF Basket due March 4, 2020—Leveraged Upside Participation to a Cap and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside (the “securities”) can be used:

§ As an alternative to direct exposure to the basket that enhances returns for a certain range of positive performance of the basket

§ To enhance returns and potentially outperform the basket in a moderately bullish scenario

§ To achieve similar levels of upside exposure to the basket as a direct investment, subject to the capped value, while using fewer dollars by taking advantage of the participation rate

§ To obtain a buffer against a specified level of negative performance in the basket

The securities are not designed for, and may not be a suitable investment for, investors who:

§ Seek a liquid investment or are unable or unwilling to hold the securities to maturity

§ Are unwilling to accept the risk that the ending level of the basket may decrease by more than 15% from the starting level, resulting in a loss on the initial investment

§ Seek uncapped exposure to the upside performance of the basket

§ Seek full return of the face amount of the securities at maturity

§ Seek current income from their investments

§ Are unwilling to accept the risk of exposure to equity markets, including foreign developed equity markets, foreign emerging equity markets and the large- and small-capitalization segments of the U.S. equity markets

§ Seek exposure to the basket but are unwilling to accept the risk/return trade-offs inherent in the payment at stated maturity for the securities

§ Are unwilling to accept the credit risk of Morgan Stanley

§ Prefer the lower risk of fixed income investments with comparable maturities issued by companies with comparable credit ratings

Maturity: 5 years
Participation rate: 140%
Capped value: $1,570 per security (157% of the face amount)
Threshold level: 85% of the starting level. The securities provide a 15% buffer, with 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of 15%.
Downside exposure: Investors may lose up to 85% of the face amount of the securities.
Interest: None

The face amount of each security is $1,000. This 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 is less than $1,000 per security. We estimate that the value of each security on the pricing date is $936.40.

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 basket components. The estimated value of the securities is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the basket components, instruments based on the basket components, 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 capped value, the participation rate and the threshold level, 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.

Principal at Risk Securities

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

The price at which MS & Co. purchases the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the basket components, 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 basket components, 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.

Key Investment Rationale

The securities offer leveraged upside exposure to the basket, subject to the capped value, while providing limited protection against negative performance of the basket. At maturity, if the basket has appreciated in value, investors will receive the face amount plus 140% participation in the upside performance of the basket, subject to the capped value of $1,570 per security. If the basket has depreciated in value, but not by more than 15%, the securities will redeem for the face amount. However, if the basket has depreciated in value by more than 15%, investors will receive less than the face amount and have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of 15%. Investors may lose up to 85% of the face amount. All payments on the securities are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

Leveraged Performance The securities offer investors an opportunity to capture enhanced returns for a certain range of positive performance relative to a direct investment in the basket.
Upside Scenario The level of the basket increases, and, at maturity, the securities redeem for the face amount plus 140% participation in the upside performance of the basket, subject to the capped value of $1,570 per security.
Par Scenario The level of the basket decreases by no more than 15%, and, at maturity, the securities redeem for the face amount.
Downside Scenario The level of the basket decreases by more than 15%, and, at maturity, the securities redeem for less than the face amount and have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of 15%. For example: if the basket depreciates in value by 25%, the securities will redeem for $900, or 90% of the face amount.

How the Securities Work

Payoff Diagram

The payoff diagram below illustrates the redemption amount on the securities based on the following terms, assuming no change to the adjustment factor:

Face amount: $1,000 per security
Participation rate: 140%
Threshold level: 85% of the starting level
Capped value: $1,570 (157% of the face amount)

How it works

§ Upside Scenario. If the ending level is greater than the starting level, investors will receive the face amount of $1,000 per security plus 140% of the appreciation of the basket over the term of the securities, subject to the capped value. Under the terms of the securities, an investor will receive the capped value of $1,570 per security (157% of the face amount) at an ending level of approximately 140.71% of the starting level.

§ Par Scenario. If the ending level is less than or equal to the starting level but greater than or equal to the threshold level, investors will receive the face amount of $1,000 per security.

§ Downside Scenario. If the ending level is less than the threshold level, investors will receive an amount that is less than the face amount and have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of 15%.

§ For example, if the basket depreciates 40%, investors would lose 25% of the face amount and receive only $750 per security at maturity, or 75% of the face amount.

Scenario Analysis and Examples of Redemption Amount at Maturity

The following scenario analysis and examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and are hypothetical. They do not purport to be representative of every possible scenario concerning increases or decreases in the value of the basket relative to the starting level. We cannot predict the ending level on the calculation day. You should not take the scenario analysis and these examples as an indication or assurance of the expected performance of the basket. The numbers appearing in the examples below may have been rounded for ease of analysis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS, the amount you will receive per $1,000 face amount of securities at maturity will be the redemption amount, defined and calculated as provided in this document. The following scenario analysis and examples illustrate the payment at maturity on a hypothetical offering of the securities, based on the following terms*:

Investment term: 5 years
Starting level: 100
Threshold level: 85 (85% of the starting level)
Participation rate: 140%
Capped value: $1,570 per security (157% of the face amount)

Example 1 — The value of the basket increases from a starting level of 100 to an ending level of 110.

Because the hypothetical ending level is greater than the starting level, the redemption amount would equal:

$1,000 + [$1,000 × [(110 – 100) / 100] × 140%] = $1,140

In this example, the redemption amount is greater than the face amount but less than the capped value. Therefore, on the stated maturity date, you would receive the redemption amount equal to $1,140 per $1,000 face amount of securities, resulting in a total return on the securities of 14%.

Example 2 — The value of the basket increases from a starting level of 100 to an ending level of 160.

The redemption amount would be equal to the capped value since the capped value is less than:

$1,000 + [$1,000 × [(160 – 100) / 100] × 140%] = $1,840

Therefore, on the stated maturity date, you would receive the capped value of $1,570 per $1,000 face amount of securities, resulting in a total return on the securities of 57.00%.

The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the capped value of $1,570 per security, or 157% of the face amount. Although the participation rate provides 140% exposure to any increase in the ending level over the starting level, because the redemption amount will be limited to 157% of the face amount for the securities, any increase in the ending level over the starting level by more than approximately 40.71% of the starting level will not further increase the return on the securities.

Example 3 — The value of the basket decreases from a starting level of 100 to an ending level of 90.

Because the hypothetical ending level is less than or equal to the starting level but greater than or equal to the threshold level, the redemption amount would equal:

$1,000

Because the hypothetical ending level is less than or equal to the starting level but greater than or equal to the threshold level, you would receive the redemption amount equal to $1,000 per $1,000 face amount of securities, resulting in a total return on the securities of 0%.

February 2015 Page 7

Securities Linked to a Global ETF Basket due March 4, 2020—Leveraged Upside Participation to a Cap and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities

Example 4 — The value of the basket decreases from a starting level of 100 to an ending level of 60.

Because the hypothetical ending level is less than the starting level by more than 15%, you would lose a portion of the face amount of your securities and receive the redemption amount equal to:

$1,000 - [$1,000 × (85 – 60) / 100] = $750

Because the ending level is below the threshold level on the calculation day, the securities will be fully exposed to any decline in the value of the basket in excess of 15%. Therefore, the redemption amount is equal to $750 per $1,000 face amount of securities, resulting in a total loss on the securities of 25%.

If the ending level is below the threshold level on the calculation day, the securities will be fully exposed to any decline in the basket in excess of 15%. You may lose up to 85% of the face amount of your securities at maturity.

How to Calculate the Ending Level

Below are three full examples of how to calculate the ending level. The following examples and the tables are based on hypothetical data and are provided for illustrative purposes only. The examples do not show every situation that can occur.

Ending Level = Sum of the products of (i) the closing value of each basket component on the calculation day (referred to in these examples as the “final basket component value”) and (ii) the multiplier for such basket component on the calculation day

SPY Shares = Final Basket Component Value × Multiplier, plus
IWM Shares = Final Basket Component Value × Multiplier, plus
EFA Shares = Final Basket Component Value × Multiplier, plus
EEM Shares = Final Basket Component Value × Multiplier

Example 1 : The basket performance is positive.

Basket Component Basket Component Weighting Hypothetical Multiplier Hypothetical Initial Basket Component Value Hypothetical Final Basket Component Value Appreciation / Depreciation
SPY Shares 50% 0.250000000 $200 .00 $220.00 + 10%
IWM Shares 20% 0.173913043 $115 .00 $132.25 + 15%
EFA Shares 15% 0.250000000 $60 .00 $61.20 + 2%
EEM Shares 15% 0.375 000000 $4 0.00 $42.00 + 5%

Using the hypothetical final basket component values and the hypothetical multipliers above, the ending level is calculated as follows:

SPY Shares = $220.00 × 0.250000000, plus
IWM Shares = $132.25 × 0.173913043, plus
EFA Shares = $61.20 × 0.250000000, plus
EEM Shares = $42.00 × 0.375 000000
Ending Level = 109.05
Starting Level = 100.00

In the above example, all of the basket components appreciated. Therefore, the basket appreciated in value from the starting level of 100 .00 to the ending level of 109.05 .

Example 2 : The basket performance is negative.

Basket Component Basket Component Weighting Hypothetical Multiplier Hypothetical Initial Basket Component Value Hypothetical Final Basket Component Value Appreciation / Depreciation
SPY Shares 50% 0.250000000 $200 .00 $12 0.00 – 40%
IWM Shares 20% 0.173913043 $115 .00 $120.75 + 5%
EFA Shares 15% 0.250000000 $60 .00 $66.00 + 10%
EEM Shares 15% 0.375 000000 $4 0.00 $46.00 + 15%

February 2015 Page 9

Principal at Risk Securities

Using the hypothetical final basket component values and the hypothetical multipliers above, the ending level is calculated as follows:

SPY Shares = $12 0.00 × 0.250000000, plus
IWM Shares = $120.75 × 0.173913043, plus
EFA Shares = $66.00 × 0.250000000, plus
EEM Shares = $46.00 × 0.375 000000
Ending Level = 84.75
Starting Level = 100.00

In the above example, the basket depreciated in value from the starting level of 100 .00 to the ending level of 84.75 . The positive performance of the IWM Shares, the EFA Shares and the EEM Shares were more than offset by the negative performance of the more heavily weighted SPY Shares, resulting in a negative performance of the basket.

Example 3 : The basket performance is negative.

Basket Component Basket Component Weighting Hypothetical Multiplier Hypothetical Initial Basket Component Value Hypothetical Final Basket Component Value Appreciation / Depreciation
SPY Shares 50% 0.250000000 $200 .00 $160.00 – 20%
IWM Shares 20% 0.173913043 $115 .00 $69.0 0 – 40%
EFA Shares 15% 0.250000000 $60 .00 $57.00 – 5%
EEM Shares 15% 0.375 000000 $4 0.00 $34.00 – 15%

Using the hypothetical final basket component values and the hypothetical multipliers above, the ending level is calculated as follows:

SPY Shares = $16 0.00 × 0.250000000, plus
IWM Shares = $69.00 × 0.173913043, plus
EFA Shares = $57.0 0 × 0.250000000, plus
EEM Shares = $34 .00 × 0.375 000000
Ending Level = 79.00
Starting Level = 100.00

In the above example, all of the basket components depreciated. Therefore, the basket depreciated in value from the starting level of 100 .00 to the ending level of 79.00.

Risk Factors

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

§ The securities do not pay interest, and you will receive less, and up to 85% less, than the face amount of your securities at maturity if the ending level is less than the threshold level. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not pay interest or repay a fixed amount of the face amount of the securities. If the ending level is less than the threshold level, which is 85% of the starting level, you will receive less, and up to 85% less, than the face amount of your securities at maturity.

§ The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the capped value. The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the capped value of $1,570 per security, or 157% of the face amount. Although the participation rate provides 140% exposure to any increase in the ending level over the starting level, because the redemption amount will be limited to 157% of the face amount for the securities, any increase in the ending level over the starting level by more than approximately 40.71% of the starting level will not further increase the return on the securities.

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

§ the share closing price of each of the basket components at any time,

§ the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in share closing price) of each of the basket components,

§ interest and yield rates in the market,

§ geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the basket components or stock markets generally and which may affect the closing values of the basket components on the calculation day,

§ the exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar with respect to each of the currencies in which the stocks underlying the EEM Shares and the EFA Shares trade,

§ dividend yields of the basket components,

§ the time remaining until the securities mature,

§ the occurrence of certain events affecting the SPY Shares, the IWM Shares, the EEM Shares or the EFA Shares that may or may not require an adjustment to the respective adjustment factors, and

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

Some or all of these factors will influence the price that you will receive if you sell your securities prior to maturity. Generally, the longer the time remaining to maturity, the more the market price of the securities will be affected by the other factors described above. The prices of the basket components may be, and have recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. See “SPDR ® S&P 500 ® ETF Trust Overview,” “iShares ® Russell 2000 ® ETF Overview,” “iShares ® MSCI EAFE ETF Overview” and “iShares ® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF Overview” below. You may receive less, and possibly significantly less, than the face amount per security if you try to sell your securities prior to maturity.

§ The securities are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley, and any actual or anticipated changes to its credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the securities. You are dependent on Morgan Stanley’s ability to pay all amounts due on the securities at maturity, and therefore you are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley. If Morgan Stanley defaults on its obligations under the securities, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the securities prior to maturity will be affected by changes in the market’s view of Morgan Stanley’s creditworthiness. Any actual or anticipated decline in Morgan Stanley’s credit ratings or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking Morgan Stanley credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the securities.

§ The amount payable on the securities is not linked to the value of the basket at any time other than the calculation day. The ending level will be based on the share closing prices of the basket components on the calculation day and the applicable adjustment factors, subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events. If some or all of the basket components appreciate prior to the calculation day but then depreciate by the calculation day, the redemption amount will be less, and may be significantly less, than it would have been had the redemption amount been linked to the prices of the basket components prior to such decrease. Although the actual prices of the basket components on the stated maturity date or at other times during the term of the securities may be higher than their share closing prices on the calculation day, the redemption amount will be based solely on the share closing prices of the basket components on the calculation day and the applicable adjustment factors.

§ Changes in the price of one or more of the basket components may offset changes in the prices of the others. Movements in the prices of the basket components may not correlate with each other. At a time when the price of one basket component increases, the price of the other basket components may not increase as much, or may even decline. Therefore, in calculating the ending level, increases in the price of one basket component may be moderated, or wholly offset, by lesser increases or declines in the prices of the other basket components. Furthermore, the basket is not equally weighted among the basket components. Decreases in the price of a more heavily weighted basket component could moderate or wholly offset increases in the prices of the less heavily weighted basket components.

§ Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the basket components . Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the basket components or the S&P 500 ® Index, the Russell 2000 ® Index, the MSCI EAFE Index or the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (each, a “share underlying index”). As an investor in the securities, you will not have voting rights or the right to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to either the basket components, their component stocks or the share underlying indices. Furthermore, the securities will provide less opportunity for appreciation than an investment in a similar security that is linked directly to the appreciation of the basket and is not subject to a capped value at maturity. In addition, you do not have the right to exchange your securities for any of the basket components at any time, and your investment is subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley.

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

Of particular importance to potential currency exchange risk are:

· existing and expected rates of inflation;

· existing and expected interest rate levels;

· the balance of payments; and

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

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

§ There are risks associated with investments in securities, such as the securities, linked to the value of foreign (and especially emerging markets) equity securities. The EFA Shares track the performance of the MSCI EAFE Index, which is linked to the value of foreign equity securities, and the EEM Shares track the performance of the MSCI

February 2015 Page 12

Securities Linked to a Global ETF Basket due March 4, 2020—Leveraged Upside Participation to a Cap and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities

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

§ The securities are linked to the IWM Shares and are therefore subject to risks associated with small-capitalization companies. The IWM Shares seek investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the Russell 2000 ® Index. The Russell 2000 ® Index consists of stocks issued by companies with relatively small market capitalization. These companies often have greater stock price volatility, lower trading volume and less liquidity than large-capitalization companies and therefore the Russell 2000 ® Index may be more volatile than that of indices that consist of stocks issued by large-capitalization companies. Stock prices of small-capitalization companies are also more vulnerable than those of large-capitalization companies to adverse business and economic developments, and the stocks of small-capitalization companies may be thinly traded. In addition, small capitalization companies are typically less well-established and less stable financially than large-capitalization companies and may depend on a small number of key personnel, making them more vulnerable to loss of personnel. Such companies tend to have smaller revenues, less diverse product lines, smaller shares of their product or service markets, fewer financial resources and less competitive strengths than large-capitalization companies and are more susceptible to adverse developments related to their products.

§ The adjustments to the adjustment factors the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every corporate event that can affect the SPY Shares, the IWM Shares, the EFA Shares or the EEM Shares. MS & Co., as calculation agent, will adjust the respective adjustment factor for the SPY Shares, the IWM Shares, the EFA Shares and the EEM Shares for stock splits and stock dividends. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment for every corporate event or any distribution that could affect the SPY Shares, the IWM Shares, the EFA Shares or the EEM Shares. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to adjust the adjustment factor, the market price of the securities may be materially and adversely affected.

§ Adjustments to any of the basket components or to the share underlying indices could adversely affect the value of the securities. The investment advisor for each of the basket components seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the relevant share underlying index. Pursuant to their investment strategies or otherwise, the applicable investment advisor can add, delete or substitute the stocks composing such basket components. Any of these actions could adversely affect the price of the basket components, and, consequently, the value of the securities. In addition, the publisher of each share underlying index is responsible for calculating and maintaining the relevant share underlying index. The applicable index publisher may add, delete or substitute the stocks constituting the share underlying index or make other methodological changes required by certain corporate events relating to the component stocks, such as stock dividends, stock splits, spin-offs, rights offerings and extraordinary dividends, that could change the value of the share underlying index. The index publishers may also discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of any of the underlying indices at any time. If

February 2015 Page 13

Securities Linked to a Global ETF Basket due March 4, 2020—Leveraged Upside Participation to a Cap and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities

this discontinuance or suspension occurs following the discontinuance or liquidation of the related basket component, the calculation agent will have the sole discretion to substitute a successor index that is comparable to the discontinued share underlying index, and is permitted to consider indices that are calculated and published by the calculation agent or any of its affiliates. Any of these actions could adversely affect the closing values of any of the basket components, and, consequently, the value of the securities.

§ The basket components and the share underlying indices are different. The performance of any of the basket components may not exactly replicate the performance of the corresponding share underlying index because each of the basket components will reflect transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of the corresponding share underlying index tracked by such basket component. It is also possible that one or more of the basket components may not fully replicate, or may in certain circumstances diverge significantly from, the performance of the corresponding share underlying index due to the temporary unavailability of certain securities in the secondary market, the performance of any derivative instruments contained in such basket components, differences in trading hours between such basket components and the corresponding share underlying index or due to other circumstances. Additionally, the investment adviser of any of the basket components may have authorization to invest up to a certain percentage of its assets in shares of other exchange-traded funds that seek to track the performance of equity securities of similar constituent countries or industries of the corresponding share underlying index.

§ 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 face amount reduce the economic terms of the securities, cause the estimated value of the securities to be less than the face amount 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 face amount, because secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the face amount 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 face amount 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 basket components, 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 document will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including our creditworthiness and changes in market conditions. See also “The market price will be influenced by many unpredictable factors” above.

§ The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities for the entire 5-year term of the securities. The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. MS & Co. and WFS may, but are not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if either of them once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time. When they do make a market, they will generally do so for transactions of routine secondary market size at prices based on their respective estimates of the current value of the

February 2015 Page 14

Principal at Risk Securities

securities, taking into account their respective bid/offer spreads, 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 they 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. or WFS is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS & Co. and WFS 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.

§ The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, will make determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MS & Co. has determined the initial basket component value and multiplier for each basket component, will determine the ending level, will make any adjustments to the adjustment factors and will calculate the amount of cash you receive at maturity. Moreover, certain determinations made by MS & Co. in its capacity as calculation agent, may require it to exercise discretion and make subjective judgments, such as with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events and the selection of a successor index or calculation of the ending level in the event of a market disruption event or discontinuance of any share underlying index. These potentially subjective determinations may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity. For further information regarding these types of determinations, see “Description of PLUS—Postponement of Valuation Date(s),” “—Antidilution Adjustments for PLUS Linked to Exchange-Traded Funds,” “—Alternate Exchange Calculation in case of an Event of Default,” “—Discontinuance of Any ETF Shares and/or Share Underlying Index; Alteration of Method of Calculation” and “—Calculation Agent and Calculations” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS. In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date.

§ Hedging and trading activity by our subsidiaries could potentially adversely affect the value of the securities. One or more of our subsidiaries and/or third-party dealers have carried out, and will continue to carry out, hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the basket components or the share underlying indices), including trading in the basket components, in futures and/or options contracts on the basket components, the component stocks of the basket components or the share underlying indices and other financial instruments related to the basket components listed on major securities markets. Some of our subsidiaries also trade the basket components or the component stocks of the basket components and other financial instruments related to the share underlying indices on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have increased the initial basket component values, and, therefore, could have increased the values at or above which the basket components must close on the calculation day 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, including on the calculation day, could adversely affect the values of the basket components, and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the securities or the payment you will receive at maturity.

§ The stated maturity date may be postponed if the calculation day is postponed. If the scheduled calculation day is not a trading day for a basket component or if a market disruption event occurs with respect to a basket component on that day so that the calculation day for such basket component is postponed and falls less than two business days prior to the stated maturity date, the stated maturity date of the securities will be postponed to the second business day following the last calculation day as postponed.

§ Historical prices of the basket components should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of the basket components during the term of the securities. No assurance can be given as to the prices of the basket components at any time, including on the calculation day, because historical prices of the basket components do not provide an indication of future performance of the basket components.

§ Potentially inconsistent research, opinions or recommendations by MS & Co., WFS or their respective affiliates. MS & Co., WFS and their respective affiliates may publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the securities, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the securities. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by MS & Co., WFS or their respective affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the securities and the basket components to which the securities are linked.

§ The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain. Please read the discussion under “Additional provisions ― Tax considerations” in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS (together the “Tax Disclosure Sections”) concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities . As discussed in the Tax Disclosure Sections, there is a substantial risk that the “constructive ownership” rule could apply, in which case all or a portion of any long-term capital gain recognized by a U.S. Holder could be recharacterized as ordinary income (in which case an interest charge will be imposed). If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment, the timing and character of income on the securities might differ significantly from the tax treatment described in the Tax Disclosure Sections. For example, under one 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. Additionally, as discussed under “United States Federal Taxation—FATCA Legislation” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS, the withholding rules commonly referred to as “FATCA” would apply to the securities if they were recharacterized as debt instruments. The risk that buffered securities would be recharacterized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as debt instruments giving rise to ordinary income, rather than as open transactions, is higher than with non-buffered e quity-linked securities . 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 the Tax Disclosure Sections.

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

Minimum ticketing size: $1,000 / 1 security
Tax considerations: 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, 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.
Assuming this treatment of the securities is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result based on current law:
§ A U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize taxable income over the term of the securities prior to settlement, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange.
§ Upon sale, exchange or settlement of the securities, a U.S. Holder should recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the securities. Subject to the discussion below concerning the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule, such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if the investor has held the securities for more than one year, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise.

February 2015 Page 30

Securities Linked to a Global ETF Basket due March 4, 2020—Leveraged Upside Participation to a Cap and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities

Because the securities are linked to shares of exchange-traded funds, although the matter is not clear, there is a substantial risk that an investment in the securities will be treated as a “constructive ownership transaction” under Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If this treatment applies, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain of the U.S. Holder in respect of the securities could be recharacterized as ordinary income (in which case an interest charge will be imposed). Due to the lack of governing authority, our counsel is unable to opine as to whether or how Section 1260 of the Code applies to the securities. U.S. investors should read the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Tax Treatment of the PLUS—Possible Application of Section 1260 of the Code” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS for additional information and consult their tax advisers regarding the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule. In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; whether short-term instruments should be subject to any such accrual regime; the relevance of factors such as the exchange-traded status of the instruments and the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” rule, as discussed above. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities , possibly with retroactive effect. Both U.S. and non-U.S. investors considering an investment in the securities should read the discussion under “Risk Factors” in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including possible alternative treatments, the potential application of the constructive ownership rule, the issues presented by the aforementioned notice and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction. The discussion in the preceding paragraphs under “Tax considerations” and the discussion contained in the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS, 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.
Trustee: The Bank of New York Mellon
Calculation agent: Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS & Co.”)
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 page 3 above comprise the agent’s commissions and the cost of issuing, structuring and hedging the securities. On or prior to the pricing date, we hedged 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 have taken positions in the basket components, in futures and/or options contracts on the basket components, the component stocks of the basket components or the share underlying indices and other financial instruments related to the basket components listed on major securities markets. Such purchase activity could have increased the initial basket component values, and, therefore, could have increased the values at or above which the basket components must close on the calculation day 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, including on the calculation day, by purchasing and selling the basket components or the component stocks of the basket components and other financial instruments related to the basket components, futures or options contracts on the basket components or component stocks of the basket components and other financial instruments related to the basket components listed on major securities markets or positions in any other available securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging activities. We cannot give any assurance that our hedging activities will not affect the values of the basket components, and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the securities or the payment you will receive at maturity. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS.

connection with such hedging activities. We cannot give any assurance that our hedging activities will not affect the values of the basket components, and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the securities or the payment you will receive at maturity. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS.
Benefit plan investor considerations: Each fiduciary of a pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) (a “Plan”), should consider the fiduciary standards of ERISA in the context of the Plan’s particular circumstances before authorizing an investment in the securities. Accordingly, among other factors, the fiduciary should consider whether the investment would satisfy the prudence and diversification requirements of ERISA and would be consistent with the documents and instruments governing the Plan. In addition, we and certain of our subsidiaries and affiliates, including MS & Co., may be considered a “party in interest” within the meaning of ERISA, or a “disqualified person” within the meaning of the Code with respect to many Plans, as well as many individual retirement accounts and Keogh plans (also “Plans”). ERISA Section 406 and Code Section 4975 generally prohibit transactions between Plans and parties in interest or disqualified persons. Prohibited transactions within the meaning of ERISA or the Code would likely arise, for example, if the securities are acquired by or with the assets of a Plan with respect to which MS & Co. or any of its affiliates is a service provider or other party in interest, unless the securities are acquired pursuant to an exemption from the “prohibited transaction” rules. A violation of these “prohibited transaction” rules could result in an excise tax or other liabilities under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code for such persons, unless exemptive relief is available under an applicable statutory or administrative exemption. The U.S. Department of Labor has issued five prohibited transaction class exemptions (“PTCEs”) that may provide exemptive relief for direct or indirect prohibited transactions resulting from the purchase or holding of the securities. Those class exemptions are PTCE 96-23 (for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), PTCE 95-60 (for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 91-38 (for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 90-1 (for certain transactions involving insurance company separate accounts) and PTCE 84-14 (for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers). In addition, ERISA Section 408(b)(17) and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code may provide an exemption for the purchase and sale of securities and the related lending transactions, provided that neither the issuer of the securities nor any of its affiliates has or exercises any discretionary authority or control or renders any investment advice with respect to the assets of the Plan involved in the transaction and provided further that the Plan pays no more, and receives no less, than “adequate consideration” in connection with the transaction (the so-called “service provider” exemption). There can be no assurance that any of these class or statutory exemptions will be available with respect to transactions involving the securities. Because we may be considered a party in interest with respect to many Plans, the securities may not be purchased, held or disposed of by any Plan, any entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of any Plan’s investment in the entity (a “Plan Asset Entity”) or any person investing “plan assets” of any Plan, unless such purchase, holding or disposition is eligible for exemptive relief, including relief available under PTCEs 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1, 84-14 or the service provider exemption or such purchase, holding or disposition is otherwise not prohibited. Any purchaser, including any fiduciary purchasing on behalf of a Plan, transferee or holder of the securities will be deemed to have represented, in its corporate and its fiduciary capacity, by its purchase and holding of the securities that either (a) it is not a Plan or a Plan Asset Entity and is not purchasing such securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan or with any assets of a governmental, non-U.S. or church plan that is subject to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. law that is substantially similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) or (b) its purchase, holding and disposition are eligible for exemptive relief or such purchase, holding and disposition are not prohibited by ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law. Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties that may be imposed upon persons involved in non-exempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that fiduciaries or other persons considering purchasing the securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan consult with their counsel regarding the availability of exemptive relief. 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. 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 or Morgan Stanley Wealth Management or a family member and the employee receives any compensation (such as, for example, an addition to bonus) based on the purchase of the securities by the account, plan or annuity.
Additional considerations: Client accounts over which Morgan Stanley, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management or any of their respective subsidiaries have investment discretion are not permitted to purchase the securities, either directly or indirectly.

Validity of the securities: In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special counsel to Morgan Stanley, when the securities offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and issued by Morgan Stanley, authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the Senior Debt Indenture and delivered against payment as contemplated herein, such securities will be valid and binding obligations of Morgan Stanley, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided that such counsel expresses no opinion as to the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above.
