Har n es s i ng Pos i t i ve T rends i n a D i ver s i fied a n d R i sk-Contro l led Way The Morgan Stanley MAP Trend Index (the "Index") uses portfolio construction concepts to seek positive-return opportunities in different market environments. With potentia l for diversif ied exposure to a wide range of asset classes, the MAP Trend Index utilizes a rules-based approach and seeks to invest in assets with upward trends using Liquid U.S.-Listed ETFs that represent equities, treasuries, bonds and alternatives. A da i ly risk management mecha nism is then applied with the aim of stabilizing the overa ll risk of the Index. Creating and managi ng a portfolio based on these pri nci ples can be challenging and impractica l. As an alternative, taking exposure to the Morgan Stanley MAP Trend Index can offer the benef its of this approach in one simple investment, with the following key features: IMAGE OMITTEDIMAGE OMITTED IMAGE OMITTEDIMAGE OMITTED IMAGE OMITTED IMAGE OMITTEDIMAGE OMITTED The Index is calculated on an excess retu rn basis, meaning that the index Levels represent the performance of the portfolio in excess of the 3-month LIBOR rate. A servici ng f ee of 0.85% per annum (calculated on a daily basis) is included in the published Level of the Index.

Why i s Dyna m i c A l l oca t i on Importan t ? The I ndex is bu i lt according to a series of ru les that determine the allocation to each asset class and I ndex component. These allocations are dynamic, meaning that the I ndex is able to react to changes in market conditions over time and aims for more stable returns. Many traditional investments offer constant exposure to a universe of assets. However, returns from these investments can be va ria ble, as these assets will not have consistent performance in different market conditions. Dynamic allocation can help to achieve more steady returns as the allocation to each asset will be adjusted across diff erent parts of the market cycle.

Constr u c t i n g the I n dex The MAP Trend I ndex is bui lt upon predetermined rules and employs several key portfolio construction concepts such as "risk -budgeting" and "trend-followi ng. " The Index is reba lanced each day using the following steps: Step 1 : Computing Risk-Budget Weights IMAGE OMITTEDIMAGE OMITTED The historical rea lized volatility of each ETF asset is calculated with an exponen tial decay mechanism that gives more weight to more recent data. The risk budget weight for each ETF is proportional to its liquidity-driven maximum allowable exposure and the inverse of its rea lized volatility. This construct gives relatively more weight to Lower-volatility assets and vice versa. The risk budget weights are normalized such that they sum to 100%. IMAGE OMITTED IMAGE OMITTED Step 2: Analyzing Asset-Price Trend IMAGE OMITTED Each day, the recent price trend of each ETF is monitored by comparing the current ETF price to its short-term and Long-term exponential moving averages. The resulting trend signal ranges between 0 and 1. It is the average of a Long-term and a short-term measure, with smoothing if necessary. IMAGE OMITTED IMAGE OMITTED

Step 3: Determining Portfolio Weights Trend signal s from step 2 are combined with the normalized risk budget weights from step 1to derive the portfolio weights. Each ETF is assigned a weight that is the product of its norma liz ed risk-budget weight and its trend signal. Any remaining weight is assigned to the 2-year U.S. Treasury Index such that the total assigned weights sum-up to 100%. IMAGE OMITTED IMAGE OMITTED Step 4: Applying Volatility Target To attempt to achieve a 5% annualized vol atility, the Index adjusts the exposure to the selected portfolio (as constructed in Step 3) based on a ratio of 5% to the selected portfolio's historical realized vol atility. The Index's total exposure to the ETF assets is capped at 125% with any unused exposure below 100% being allocated to the 2 -Year Treasury Index. Additionally, a daily cap is imposed on the amount of change in ETF asset exposure to limit the dai ly turnover.

How D ivers i fied H as the In d ex Been H i stor i ca l l y ? The below chart shows the average exposure that the Index wou ld have taken to different asset classes over different years The shif ts i n allocations over time demonst rate how the strategy reacts to diff erent market cycles, and rea llocates between different asset classes accordingly. For example: During the market rally of 2003-200 7 , the Index would have an approximate 1 00% average exposure to equ ities, bonds and alternatives. However, in the 2008- 2009 credit crisis, the Index would have an approximate 50% average allocation to 2-Year U .S. Treasu ries. I n the post-crisis recovery period from 2010 to present, the Index would have increased its exposure to riskier asset classes (equities, bonds and alternatives).

Index Performance (Simulated and Actual) Back -testing and other statistica l anal yses provided herein use simulated analysis and hypothetical circumstances to estimate how the Index may have performed between September 22, 2003, and March 7 , 2017 , prior to its actual existence. The results obtained from such back -testing should not be considered indicative of the actual results that might be obtained from an investment in the Index. The actual performance of the Index may vary significantly from the results obtained from back -testing. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results are achieved by means of the retroactive application of a back -tested model itsel f designed with the benefit of hindsight and knowledge of factors that may have possibly affected its performance. Morgan Stanley provides no assurance or guarantee that any product linked to the Index will operate or would have operated in the past in a manner consistent with these materials. Actual results will vary, perhaps materia lly, from the simulated returns presented in this document. Because certain ETFs included in the sub - asset classes existed for only a portion of the back-tested period , substitute data has been used for portions of the simulation. Wherever data for one or more ETFs did not exist, the simulation has included the value of each ETF' s benchmark index or reconstruction thereof L ess the relevant current expense ratio. The ETFs (and corresponding f und inception dates) for which data has been used for all periods prior to the relevant inception date are: USMV (October 20, 2011), DVY (November 7, 2003), HYG (April 11, 2007), AGG (September 26, 2003), EMB (Decem ber 19, 2007), TIP (December 5, 2003), PFF (March 30, 2007), GLD (November 18, 2004), USO (April 10, 2006), VNQ (September 29, 2004) and UUP (February 20, 2007) .

The Index's exposure to each Index Component is adjusted through a volatility-scaling mechanism that seeks to target a vo l a t i l i t y of 5% for the Index However, as the vo l a t i l i t y-sca l ing mechanism l ooks to trends that have occurred in the past to then make adjustments to f u tur e positions, i t is unlikely that the Index wi ll achieve the target vo l a t i l i t y in any Index Component for any given pe r iod of time The ac tu a l vo l a t i l i t y achieved by the Index overall, as well as the volatility achieved for each Index Component, will likely di ff e r- pe r haps significantly-from the volatility target The Vo l a tilit y Ta r ge t Fea t u r e o f t he Index M ay Dampen it s Performance in Bullish Markets. The Index is designed to achieve a volatility target of 5% regardless of the direction of price movements in the market Therefore, in bullish markets, if the realized volatility is higher than the vo l a t i l i t y target, the adjustments to the asset po rtf o l io of the Index through daily rebalancing might dampen the performance of the Index The selection of the Index Components, as we ll as t he vo l a t i l i t y t a r ge t feature, may cause t he Index to unde r pe rf o r m one or more of the Index Components Each Sub-Index ' s Po rtf o li o o f Index Componen t s Is Va ri ed and Represents a Number of Different Asset Classes in a Number of D iff e r e nt Sec tor s.

Among o t he r t hings , t he tr ading prices of the ETFs and the dividends paid on the ETFs wi ll impac t the level and the vo l a t i l i t y of the Index I t is impossible to p r edic t whether the level of the Index will rise or f al l The f ac t that a given a ll oca t ion among t he asset po rtf o l io pe rf o r med w e ll ove r any look-back period does not mean that such allocation wi ll continue to pe rf o r m well in the future Future market conditions may differ fr om past market conditions, and the conditions that may have caused the f avo r ab l e historical pe rf o r mance may no longer exis t Fu rt he r mo r e, by continually seeking to tr ack the asset po rtf o l io that would have been the best-performing po rtf o l io (subject to constraints) over a look-back period, the Index may perpetually be too late, and i t may perpetually "buy high" By the time the Index hypo t he t ica ll y inves t s in a po rtf o l io of ETFs , t he ETFs in t ha t portfolio may already have experienced significant appreciation The Index may therefore perpetually make hypothetical investments in portfolios when they are expensive, which may lead to poor returns The Index Is Particularly Susceptible to "Choppy" Markets. Past performance is particularly likely to be a poor indicator of future performance in "choppy" markets, which are characterized by short- term volatility and the absence of consistent long-term performance trends In such markets, strategies that use past performance as an indicator of future performance, such as that followed by the Index, are subject to "whipsaws," which occur when the market reverses and does the opposite of what is indicated by past performance The Index may experience significant declines in such markets The Index Has Fixed Weighting Constraints. The Index app l ies limits to the weight that may be assigned to each ETF These limits are fixed and may skew the allocations among the ETFs in a way that reduces the potential performance of the Index For example, because of the weighting constraints, the Index may not allocate all of its exposure to the single ETF with the best performance over the prior six months, even if that ETF had a realized vo l a t i l i t y of less than 5% Instead, the weighting constraints require the Index to spread its exposure over all the ETFs, even if one or more of those ETFs had unfavorable returns over the relevant look-back period Additionally, the weighting constraints mean that the Index must have some exposure to all of the ETFs at all times, even when there is no asset po rtf o l io that would be expected to appreciate because all are in decline The Index wi ll not take a "short" position in any Index Component, even if the relevant Index Component displays a negative performance over the relevant look-back period The Index Was Es t ab li shed on M a r ch 7, 2 0 1 7 and The r e f o r e Has a Ve r y L i m it ed H i s t o r y.

Monthly Allocations* • Fixed Income Equities U.S. dollar and REIT s. The Index attempts to build a liquid and risk-balanced portfolio . It rebalances on a daily basis with the i ntent of investing in assets that exhibit upward trends and paring back investments during market downturns. Counter-trends or reversals in trend during very short-term horizons for Equ i ties and Alternatives are also considered, in order to capture potent i al "buying-on-the-dip" opportunit i es. Each asset's allocation i s proport i onal to i ts recent price trend, a fixed risk budget, and is i nversely proport i onal to i ts risk (measured as its h istorical realized volat ility). The portfolio targets an annualized realized volat ility of 5%. The portfolio's performance is calculated in excess of the performance of a cash investment receiv i ng the 3-Month LIBOR rate. A servicing fee of 0.85% per annum, calculated on a daily basis, is included in the published Index level. * As of February 28, 2017 . The Index came into existence on March 7 , 2017. All data prior to that are simulated. 1 Computed as the average of the daily allocations over the corresponding month. 2 ETFs and 2-Year U.S. Treasury Index performance are excess return over 3-Month Libor Rate. The sum of the index components' return attribution is not equal to the Index return over that month due the servicing fee and return compunding effects. 3 Up until Mar 28, 2017
