Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the EURO STOXX Banks ® Index due March 29, 2019

Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley

Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities SM

Principal at Risk Securities

The Trigger PLUS are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The Trigger PLUS will pay no interest, do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity and have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document. At maturity, if the underlying index has appreciated in value, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside performance of the underlying index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. If the underlying index has depreciated in value but the final index value is greater than or equal to the trigger level, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment. However, if the underlying index has depreciated in value so that the final index value is less than the trigger level, investors will lose a significant portion or all of their investment, resulting in a 1% loss for every 1% decline in the index value over the term of the Trigger PLUS. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than 70% of the stated principal amount and could be zero. Accordingly, you may lose your entire investment. The Trigger PLUS are for investors who seek an equity index-based return and who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and upside above the maximum payment at maturity in exchange for the upside leverage feature and the limited protection against loss but only if the final index value is greater than or equal to the trigger level. Investors may lose their entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS . The Trigger PLUS are notes issued as part of MSFL’s Series A Global Medium-Term Notes program.

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

Investment Summary

Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities

Principal at Risk Securities

The Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the EURO STOXX Banks ® Index due March 29, 2019 (the “Trigger PLUS”) can be used:

§ As an alternative to direct exposure to the underlying index that enhances returns for a certain range of positive performance of the underlying index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity

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

§ To provide limited protection against a loss of principal in the event of a decline of the underlying index as of the valuation date but only if the final index value is greater than or equal to the trigger level

Maturity: Approximately 2 years
Leverage factor: 350%
Maximum payment at maturity: $1,350.00 per Trigger PLUS (135.00% of the stated principal amount)
Trigger level: 70% of the initial index value
Minimum payment at maturity: None. You could lose your entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS.
Interest: None

The original issue price of each Trigger PLUS is $1,000. This price includes costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS on the pricing date is less than $1,000. We estimate that the value of each Trigger PLUS on the pricing date is $974.40.

What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?

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

What determines the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS?

In determining the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS, including the leverage factor, the maximum payment at maturity and the trigger 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 Trigger PLUS would be more favorable to you.

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

The price at which MS & Co. purchases the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying index, may vary from, and be lower than, the estimated value on the pricing date, because the secondary market price takes into account our secondary market credit spread as well as the bid-offer spread that MS & Co. would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type and other factors. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging

the Trigger PLUS are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying index, 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 Trigger PLUS, and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time.

Key Investment Rationale

Trigger PLUS offer leveraged exposure to positive performance of the underlying index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. In exchange for the leverage feature, investors are exposed to the risk of loss of a significant portion or all of their investment due to the trigger feature. At maturity, an investor will receive an amount in cash based upon the closing value of the underlying index on the valuation date, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. The Trigger PLUS are unsecured obligations of ours, and all payments on the Trigger PLUS are subject to our credit risk. Investors may lose their entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS.

Leveraged Performance The Trigger PLUS offer investors an opportunity to capture enhanced returns relative to a direct investment in the underlying index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity.
Trigger Feature At maturity, even if the underlying index has declined over the term of the Trigger PLUS, you will receive your stated principal amount but only if the final index value is greater than or equal to the trigger level.
Upside Scenario The final index value is greater than the initial index value, and, at maturity, the Trigger PLUS redeem for the stated principal amount of $1,000 plus 350% of the increase in the value of the underlying index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity of $1,350.00 per Trigger PLUS (135.00% of the stated principal amount).
Par Scenario The final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value but is greater than or equal to the trigger level. In this case, you receive the stated principal amount of $1,000 at maturity even though the underlying index has depreciated.
Downside Scenario The final index value is less than the trigger level. In this case, the Trigger PLUS redeem for at least 30% less than the stated principal amount, and this decrease will be by an amount proportionate to the full decline in the value of the underlying index over the term of the Trigger PLUS.

Trigger PLUS Payoff Diagram

How it works

§ Upside Scenario: If the final index value is greater than the initial index value, investors will receive the $1,000 stated principal amount plus 350% of the appreciation of the underlying index over the term of the Trigger PLUS, subject to the maximum payment at maturity. Under the terms of the Trigger PLUS, and investor will realize the maximum payment at maturity of $1,350.00 per Trigger PLUS (135.00% of the stated principal amount) at a final index value of 110.00% of the initial index value.

§ If the underlying index appreciates 5%, investors will receive a 17.50% return, or $1,175.00 per Trigger PLUS.

§ If the underlying index appreciates 50%, the investor would receive only the maximum payment at maturity of $1,350.00 per Trigger PLUS, or 135.00% of the stated principal amount.

§ Par Scenario: If the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value but is greater than or equal to the trigger level, investors will receive the $1,000 stated principal amount.

§ If the underlying index depreciates 20%, investors will receive the $1,000 stated principal amount.

§ Downside Scenario: If the final index value is less than the trigger level, investors will receive an amount significantly less than the $1,000 stated principal amount, based on a 1% loss of principal for each 1% decline in the underlying index.

§ If the underlying index depreciates 80%, investors will lose 80% of their principal and receive only $200 per Trigger PLUS at maturity, or 20% of the stated principal amount.

Risk Factors

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

§ The Trigger PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee return of any principal. The terms of the Trigger PLUS differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the Trigger PLUS do not pay interest or guarantee payment of any principal at maturity. If the final index value is less than the trigger level (which is 70% of the initial index value), the payout at maturity will be an amount in cash that is at least 30% less than the $1,000 stated principal amount of each Trigger PLUS, and this decrease will be by an amount proportionate to the full decrease in the value of the underlying index. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS, and you could lose your entire investment.

§ The appreciation potential of the Trigger PLUS is limited by the maximum payment at maturity. The appreciation potential of the Trigger PLUS is limited by the maximum payment at maturity of $1,350.00 per Trigger PLUS, or 135.00% of the stated principal amount. Although the leverage factor provides 350% exposure to any increase in the final index value over the initial index value, because the payment at maturity will be limited to 135.00% of the stated principal amount for the Trigger PLUS, any increase in the final index value over the initial index value by more than 10.00% of the initial index value will not further increase the return on the Trigger PLUS.

§ 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 Trigger PLUS in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to purchase or sell the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, including: the value, volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) and dividend yield of the underlying index, interest and yield rates, time remaining to maturity, geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political and regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying index or equities markets generally and which may affect the final index value of the underlying index, and any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads. The value of the underlying index may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. See “EURO STOXX Banks ® Index Overview” below. You may receive less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount per Trigger PLUS if you try to sell your Trigger PLUS prior to maturity.

§ There are risks associated with investments in securities linked to the value of foreign equity securities. The Trigger PLUS are linked to the value of foreign equity securities. Investments in securities linked to the value of foreign equity securities involve risks associated with the securities markets in those countries, including risks of volatility in those markets, governmental intervention in those markets and cross-shareholdings in companies in certain countries. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies than about U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and foreign companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements different from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. The prices of securities issued in foreign markets may be affected by political, economic, financial and social factors in those countries, or global regions, including changes in government, economic and fiscal policies and currency exchange laws. Local securities markets may trade a small number of securities and may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of holdings difficult or impossible at times. Moreover, the economies in such countries may differ favorably or 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 stocks composing the underlying index are concentrated in the banking sector . Each of the stocks composing the underlying index has been issued by a company whose business is associated with the banking sector. Because the value of the Trigger PLUS is determined based on the performance of the

Field: Page; Sequence: 7; Value: 2

March 2017 Page 7

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC

Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the EURO STOXX Banks ® Index due March 29, 2019

Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities SM

Principal at Risk Securities

Field: /Page

underlying index, an investment in the Trigger PLUS will be concentrated in this sector. As a result, the value of the Trigger PLUS may be subject to greater volatility and may be more adversely affected by a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting this sector than a different investment linked to securities of a more broadly diversified group of issuers.

The stocks composing the underlying index are issued by companies whose primary lines of business are directly associated with the banking sector. The performance of bank stocks may be affected by governmental regulation that may limit the amount and types of loans and other financial commitments that banks can make, the interest rates and fees they can charge and the amount of capital they must maintain. Profitability is largely dependent on the availability and cost of capital funds, and can fluctuate significantly when interest rates change. Credit losses resulting from financial difficulties of borrowers can negatively impact the banking sector. Banks may also be subject to severe price competition.

For additional information about the underlying index, see the information set forth in “Annex A—The EURO STOXX Banks ® Index.”

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

§ As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent operations and will have no independent assets. As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of its securities and will have no independent assets available for distributions to holders of MSFL securities if they make claims in respect of such securities in a bankruptcy, resolution or similar proceeding. Accordingly, any recoveries by such holders will be limited to those available under the related guarantee by Morgan Stanley and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of Morgan Stanley. Holders will have recourse only to a single claim against Morgan Stanley and its assets under the guarantee. Holders of securities issued by MSFL should accordingly assume that in any such proceedings they would not have any priority over and should be treated pari passu with the claims of other unsecured, unsubordinated creditors of Morgan Stanley, including holders of Morgan Stanley-issued securities.

§ The amount payable on the Trigger PLUS is not linked to the value of the underlying index at any time other than the valuation date. The final index value will be the index closing value on the valuation date, subject to adjustment for non-index business days and certain market disruption events. Even if the value of the underlying index appreciates prior to the valuation date but then drops by the valuation date, the payment at maturity will be less, and may be significantly less, than it would have been had the payment at maturity been linked to the value of the underlying index prior to such drop. Although the actual value of the underlying index on the stated maturity date or at other times during the term of the Trigger PLUS may be higher than the final index value, the payment at maturity will be based solely on the index closing value on the valuation date.

§ Investing in the Trigger PLUS is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index. Investing in the Trigger PLUS is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index or its component stocks. As an investor in the Trigger PLUS, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to stocks that constitute the underlying index.

§ Adjustments to the underlying index could adversely affect the value of the Trigger PLUS. The underlying index publisher may add, delete or substitute the stocks constituting the underlying index or make other methodological changes that could change the value of the underlying index. The underlying index publisher may discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of the underlying index at any time. In these circumstances, the calculation agent will have the sole discretion to substitute a successor index

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC

Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the EURO STOXX Banks ® Index due March 29, 2019

Field: /Page

that is comparable to the discontinued underlying index and is not precluded from considering indices that are calculated and published by the calculation agent or any of its affiliates. If the calculation agent determines that there is no appropriate successor index, the payment at maturity on the Trigger PLUS will be an amount based on the closing prices at maturity of the securities composing the underlying index at the time of such discontinuance, without rebalancing or substitution, computed by the calculation agent in accordance with the formula for calculating the underlying index last in effect prior to discontinuance of the 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 Trigger PLUS in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the Trigger PLUS, cause the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS to be less than the original issue price and will adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the prices, if any, at which dealers, including MS & Co., may be willing to purchase the Trigger PLUS in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the original issue price, because secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the original issue price and borne by you and because the secondary market prices will reflect our secondary market credit spreads and the bid-offer spread that any dealer would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type as well as other factors.

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

However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the Trigger PLUS in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying index, 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 Trigger PLUS is determined by reference to our pricing and valuation models, which may differ from those of other dealers and is not a maximum or minimum secondary market price. These pricing and valuation models are proprietary and rely in part on subjective views of certain market inputs and certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, because there is no market-standard way to value these types of securities, our models may yield a higher estimated value of the Trigger PLUS than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to value the Trigger PLUS. In addition, the estimated value on the pricing date does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which dealers, including MS & Co., would be willing to purchase your Trigger PLUS in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your Trigger PLUS at any time after the date of this document will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including our creditworthiness and changes in market conditions. See also “The market price will be influenced by many unpredictable factors” above.

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

Field: /Page

market in the Trigger PLUS, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the Trigger PLUS. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your Trigger PLUS to maturity.

§ The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make determinations with respect to the Trigger PLUS. As calculation agent, MS & Co. has determined the initial index value and the trigger level, will determine the final index value, including whether the underlying index has decreased to below the trigger level, and will calculate the amount of cash, if any, you will 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 final index value in the event of a market disruption event or discontinuance of the underlying index. These potentially subjective determinations may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity, if any. For further information regarding these types of determinations, see “Description of PLUS—Postponement of Valuation Date(s)” and “—Calculation Agent and Calculations” and related definitions in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the Trigger PLUS on the pricing date.

§ Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates could potentially adversely affect the value of the Trigger PLUS. One or more of our affiliates and/or third-party dealers have carried out, and will continue to carry out, hedging activities related to the Trigger PLUS (and to other instruments linked to the underlying index or its component stocks), including trading in the stocks that constitute the underlying index as well as in other instruments related to the underlying index. As a result, these entities may be unwinding or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the Trigger PLUS, and the hedging strategy may involve greater and more frequent dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the valuation date approaches. MS & Co. and some of our other affiliates also trade the stocks that constitute the underlying index and other financial instruments related to the underlying index on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have increased the initial index value, and, therefore, could have increased the trigger level, which is the level at or above which the underlying index must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a significant loss on their initial investment in the Trigger PLUS. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the Trigger PLUS, including on the valuation date, could potentially affect whether the value of the underlying index on the valuation date is at or below the trigger level, and, therefore, whether an investor would receive significantly less than the stated principal amount of the Trigger PLUS at maturity.

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

In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in

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

Additional Information About the Trigger PLUS

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

Additional provisions:
Underlying index publisher: STOXX Limited
Denominations: $1,000 per Trigger PLUS and integral multiples thereof
Interest: None
Bull market or bear market PLUS: Bull market PLUS
Postponement of maturity date: If the scheduled valuation date is not an index business day or if a market disruption event occurs on that day so that the valuation date as postponed falls less than two business days prior to the scheduled maturity date, the maturity date of the Trigger PLUS will be postponed to the second business day following that valuation date as postponed.
Minimum ticketing size: $1,000 / 1 Trigger PLUS
Tax considerations: Although there is uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS due to the lack of governing authority, in the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, under current law, and based on current market conditions, a Trigger PLUS should be treated as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Assuming this treatment of the Trigger PLUS is respected 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 Trigger PLUS prior to settlement, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange.
§ Upon sale, exchange or settlement of the Trigger PLUS, a U.S. Holder should recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Trigger PLUS. Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if the investor has held the Trigger PLUS for more than one year, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise.
In 2007,
the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) released a notice requesting comments on
the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. The notice focuses in
particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks
for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; whether
short-term instruments should be subject to any such accrual regime; the relevance of factors such as the exchange-traded status
of the instruments and the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which
income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these
instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” rule, which very generally can operate to recharacterize
certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose an interest charge. While the notice requests comments on appropriate
transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues
could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Trigger PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect. As
discussed in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS, Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% (or a lower applicable treaty
rate) withholding tax on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments
linked to U.S. equities or indices that include U.S. equities (each, an “Underlying Security”). Subject to certain
exceptions, Section 871(m) generally applies to securities that substantially replicate the economic performance of one or more
Underlying Securities, as determined based on tests set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations (a “Specified Security”).
However, the regulations exempt securities issued before January 1, 2018 that do not have a delta of one with respect to any Underlying
Security.

| | Based on
our determination that the Trigger PLUS do not have a delta of one with respect to any Underlying Security, our counsel is of the
opinion that the Trigger PLUS should not be Specified Securities and, therefore, should not be subject to Section 871(m). Our determination
is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may
depend on your particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security.
If withholding is required, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to the amounts so withheld. You
should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the Trigger PLUS. Both U.S.
and non-U.S. investors considering an investment in the Trigger PLUS should read the discussion under “Risk Factors”
in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying 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 Trigger
PLUS, including possible alternative treatments, the issues presented by the aforementioned notice and any tax consequences arising
under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. The
discussion in the preceding paragraphs under “Tax considerations” and the discussion contained in the section entitled
“United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying 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 Trigger PLUS. |
| --- | --- |
| Trustee: | The Bank of New York Mellon |
| Calculation agent: | MS & Co. |
| Use of proceeds and hedging: | The proceeds from the sale of the Trigger PLUS will be used by
us for general corporate purposes. We will receive, in aggregate, $1,000 per Trigger PLUS issued, because, when we enter into hedging
transactions in order to meet our obligations under the Trigger PLUS, our hedging counterparty will reimburse the cost of the agent’s
commissions. The costs of the Trigger PLUS borne by you and described beginning on page 2 above comprise the agent’s commissions
and the cost of issuing, structuring and hedging the Trigger PLUS. On or prior to
the pricing date, we hedged our anticipated exposure in connection with the Trigger PLUS by entering into hedging transactions
with our affiliates and/or third party dealers. We expect our hedging counterparties to have taken positions in stocks of the
underlying index and in futures or options contracts on the underlying index. Such purchase activity could have increased the
initial index value, and, therefore, could have increased the trigger level, which is the level at or above which the underlying
index must close on the valuation date so that investors do not suffer a significant loss on their initial investment in the Trigger
PLUS. In addition, through our affiliates, we are likely to modify our hedge position throughout the term of the Trigger PLUS,
including on the valuation date, by purchasing and selling the stocks constituting the underlying index, futures or options contracts
on the underlying index or its component stocks 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. As a result, these entities may be unwinding
or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the Trigger PLUS, and the hedging strategy may involve greater and more frequent
dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the valuation date approaches. We cannot give any assurance that our hedging activities will
not affect the value of the underlying index, and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the Trigger PLUS or the payment you
will receive at maturity, if any. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “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 Trigger PLUS. Accordingly, among other factors, the fiduciary should consider whether the investment would
satisfy the prudence and diversification requirements of ERISA and would be consistent with the documents and instruments governing
the Plan. In addition, we and certain of our affiliates, including
MS & Co., may each be considered a “party in interest” within the meaning of ERISA, or a “disqualified person”
within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), with respect to many Plans, as |

well as many individual retirement accounts and Keogh plans (also “Plans”). ERISA Section 406 and Code Section 4975 generally prohibit transactions between Plans and parties in interest or disqualified persons. Prohibited transactions within the meaning of ERISA or the Code would likely arise, for example, if the Trigger PLUS are acquired by or with the assets of a Plan with respect to which MS & Co. or any of its affiliates is a service provider or other party in interest, unless the Trigger PLUS are acquired pursuant to an exemption from the “prohibited transaction” rules. A violation of these “prohibited transaction” rules could result in an excise tax or other liabilities under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code for such persons, unless exemptive relief is available under an applicable statutory or administrative exemption. The U.S. Department of Labor has issued five prohibited transaction class exemptions (“PTCEs”) that may provide exemptive relief for direct or indirect prohibited transactions resulting from the purchase or holding of the Trigger PLUS. Those class exemptions are PTCE 96-23 (for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), PTCE 95-60 (for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 91-38 (for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 90-1 (for certain transactions involving insurance company separate accounts) and PTCE 84-14 (for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers). In addition, ERISA Section 408(b)(17) and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code may provide an exemption for the purchase and sale of securities and the related lending transactions, provided that neither the issuer of the securities nor any of its affiliates has or exercises any discretionary authority or control or renders any investment advice with respect to the assets of the Plan involved in the transaction and provided further that the Plan pays no more, and receives no less, than “adequate consideration” in connection with the transaction (the so-called “service provider” exemption). There can be no assurance that any of these class or statutory exemptions will be available with respect to transactions involving the Trigger PLUS. Because we may be considered a party in interest with respect to many Plans, the Trigger PLUS may not be purchased, held or disposed of by any Plan, any entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of any Plan’s investment in the entity (a “Plan Asset Entity”) or any person investing “plan assets” of any Plan, unless such purchase, holding or disposition is eligible for exemptive relief, including relief available under PTCEs 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1, 84-14 or the service provider exemption or such purchase, holding or disposition is otherwise not prohibited. Any purchaser, including any fiduciary purchasing on behalf of a Plan, transferee or holder of the Trigger PLUS will be deemed to have represented, in its corporate and its fiduciary capacity, by its purchase and holding of the Trigger PLUS that either (a) it is not a Plan or a Plan Asset Entity and is not purchasing such Trigger PLUS on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan or with any assets of a governmental, non-U.S. or church plan that is subject to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. law that is substantially similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) or (b) its purchase, holding and disposition are eligible for exemptive relief or such purchase, holding and disposition are not prohibited by ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law. Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties that may be imposed upon persons involved in non-exempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that fiduciaries or other persons considering purchasing the Trigger PLUS on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan consult with their counsel regarding the availability of exemptive relief. The Trigger PLUS are contractual financial instruments. The financial exposure provided by the Trigger PLUS is not a substitute or proxy for, and is not intended as a substitute or proxy for, individualized investment management or advice for the benefit of any purchaser or holder of the Trigger PLUS. The Trigger PLUS have not been designed and will not be administered in a manner intended to reflect the individualized needs and objectives of any purchaser or holder of the Trigger PLUS. Each purchaser or holder of any Trigger PLUS acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchaser or holder or its fiduciary has made and shall make all investment decisions for the purchaser or holder and the purchaser or holder has not relied and shall not rely in any way upon us or our affiliates to act as a fiduciary or adviser of the purchaser or holder with respect to (A) the design and terms of the Trigger PLUS, (B) the purchaser or holder’s investment in the Trigger PLUS, or (C) the exercise of or failure to exercise any rights we have under or with respect to the Trigger PLUS; (ii) we and our affiliates have acted and will act solely for our own account in connection

(A) all transactions relating to the Trigger PLUS and (B) all hedging transactions in connection with our obligations under the

for ensuring that its purchase, holding and disposition of the Trigger PLUS do not violate the prohibited transaction rules of
ERISA or the Code or any Similar Law. The sale of any Trigger PLUS to any Plan or plan subject to Similar Law is in no respect
a representation by us or any of our affiliates or representatives that such an investment meets all relevant legal requirements
with respect to investments by plans generally or any particular plan, or that such an investment is appropriate for plans generally
or any particular plan. However, individual retirement accounts, individual
retirement annuities and Keogh plans, as well as employee benefit plans that permit participants to direct the investment of their
accounts, will not be permitted to purchase or hold the Trigger PLUS if the account, plan or annuity is for the benefit of an
employee of Morgan Stanley or Morgan Stanley Wealth Management or a family member and the employee receives any compensation (such
as, for example, an addition to bonus) based on the purchase of the Trigger PLUS by the account, plan or annuity. |

financial advisors will collectively receive from the agent a fixed sales commission of $20 for each Trigger PLUS they sell; provided that dealers selling to investors purchasing the Trigger PLUS in fee-based advisory accounts will receive a sales commission of

Annex A—The EURO STOXX Banks ® Index

The EURO STOXX ® Banks Index (the “Index”) is one of 19 EURO STOXX ® Supersector indices that compose the STOXX ® Europe 600 Index and includes companies in the banks supersector, which tracks companies engaged in a broad range of financial services, including retail banking, loans and money transmissions. The Index is a price return index denominated in euro, calculated, maintained and published by STOXX Limited.

The Index was created by STOXX Limited, a joint venture between Deutsche Börse AG and SIX Group AG. Publication of the Index began on June 15, 1998, based on an initial index value of 100 at December 31, 1991. The Index is disseminated on the STOXX Limited website: http://www.stoxx.com, which sets forth, among other things, the country, industrial sector and weight of each component included in the Index and updates these weightings at the end of each quarter. Information contained in the STOXX Limited website is not incorporated by reference in, and should not be considered a part of, this free writing prospectus.

On March 1, 2010, STOXX Limited announced the removal of the “Dow Jones” prefix from all of its indices, including the Index.

Composition of the Index

The Index is one of 19 EURO STOXX ® Supersector indices that compose the STOXX ® Europe 600 Index. The STOXX ® Europe 600 Index contains the 600 largest European stocks by free float market capitalization. The Index contains the companies of the Eurozone subset of the STOXX ® Europe 600 Index that fall within the banks supersector, determined by reference to the Industry Classification Benchmark (“ICB”), an international system for categorizing companies that is maintained by FTSE International Limited.

The composition of the Index is reviewed quarterly, together with the STOXX ® Europe 600 Index, based on the closing stock data on the last trading day of the month following the last quarterly index review. The component stocks are announced on the fourth Tuesday of the month immediately prior to the review implementation month. Changes to the component stocks are implemented on the third Friday in each of March, June, September and December and are effective the following trading day.

Corporate actions (including mergers and takeovers, spin-offs, sector changes, delistings and bankruptcy) that affect the STOXX ® Europe 600 Index composition are immediately reviewed. Any changes are announced, implemented and effective in line with the type of corporate action and the magnitude of the effect.

Computation of the Index

The Index is calculated with the “Laspeyres formula,” which measures the aggregate price changes in the component stocks against a fixed base quantity weight. The formula for calculating the index value of the Index at any time can be expressed as follows:

Index value = free float market capitalization of the Index divisor

The “free float market capitalization of the Index” is equal to the sum of the products of the price, number of shares and free float factor for each component stock as of the time the Index is being calculated. The free float factor reduces the number of shares outstanding to the actual amount available on the market. All fractions of the total number of shares that are larger than 5% and whose holding is of a long-term nature are excluded from the index calculation. The free float factor typically excludes cross-ownership (stock owned either by the company itself or other companies), government ownership, private ownership, and restricted shares that cannot be traded during a certain period or have a foreign ownership restriction. Block ownership is not applied for holdings of custodian nominees, trustee companies, mutual funds, investment companies with short-term investment strategies, pension funds and similar entities.

The free float factors and outstanding number of shares used to calculate the Index are reviewed, calculated and implemented on a quarterly basis and are fixed until the next quarterly review. Extraordinary adjustments may occur from certain corporate actions, depending on the magnitude of the change.

The Index is also subject to a divisor, which is adjusted to maintain the continuity of index values despite changes due to corporate actions. All corporate actions and dividends are implemented at the effective date (ex-date); i.e. , with corporate actions where cash or other corporate assets are distributed to shareholders, the price of the stock will drop on the ex-date. The following is a summary of the adjustments to any component stock made for corporate actions and the effect of such adjustment on the divisor, where shareholders of the component stock will receive “B” number of shares for every “A” share held (where applicable). If the new shares have a dividend disadvantage — i.e. , the new shares have a different dividend from that paid on the old shares — the price for these new shares will be adjusted according to the gross dividend amount. The divisor may increase, decrease or be held constant.

| DIVISOR: | Decrease | A) Special Cash dividend adjusted price = closing price − announced
dividend * (1 − withholding tax if applicable) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DIVISOR: | Constant | B) Split and Reverse Split adjusted price = closing price * A / B new number of shares = old number of shares * B
/ A |
| DIVISOR: | Increase | C) Rights Offering If the subscription price is not available or equal
to or greater than the closing price on the day before the effective date, then no adjustment is made. In case the share increase is larger or equal to 100%
