All Payments on the Securities Based on the Worst Performing of the Class A Common Stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Palantir Technologies Inc.

Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley

Principal at Risk Securities

The securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The securities have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document. The securities do not guarantee the repayment of principal and do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities will pay a contingent monthly coupon but only if the determination closing price of each of the class A common stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. and the class A common stock of Palantir Technologies Inc., which we refer to collectively as the underlying stocks, is at or above 50% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to as the respective downside threshold level, on the related observation date. If the determination closing price of either underlying stock is less than its respective downside threshold level on any observation date, we will pay no interest for the related monthly period. However, if the determination closing price of each of the underlying stocks is at or above its respective downside threshold level on any subsequent observation date, investors will receive, in addition to the contingent monthly coupon for the related monthly period, any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons from prior observation dates. In addition, the securities will be automatically redeemed if the determination closing price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to its respective initial share price on any monthly redemption determination date (beginning approximately three months after the original issue date) for the early redemption payment equal to the sum of the stated principal amount plus the related contingent monthly coupon and any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons from prior observation dates. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final share price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to its respective downside threshold level, the payment at maturity will also be the sum of the stated principal amount plus the related contingent monthly coupon and any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons from prior observation dates. However, if the final share price of either underlying stock is less than its respective downside threshold level, investors will be exposed to the decline in the worst performing underlying stock on a 1-to-1 basis and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 50% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment and also the risk of not receiving any contingent monthly coupons throughout the 2-year term of the securities. The securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and seek an opportunity to earn interest at a potentially above-market rate in exchange for the risk of receiving no monthly coupons over the entire 2-year term and in exchange for the possibility of an automatic early redemption prior to maturity. Because the payment of contingent monthly coupons is based on the worst performing of the underlying stocks, the fact that the securities are linked to two underlying stocks does not provide any asset diversification benefits and instead means that a decline of either underlying stock below the relevant downside threshold level will result in no contingent monthly coupons, even if the other underlying stock closes at or above its downside threshold level. Because all payments on the securities are based on the worst performing of the underlying stocks, a decline beyond the respective downside threshold level of either underlying stock will result in no contingent monthly coupon payments and a significant loss of your investment, even if the other underlying stock has appreciated or has not declined as much. Investors will not participate in any appreciation of either underlying stock. The securities 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 securities are not secured obligations and you will not have any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets.

(1) The price to public for investors purchasing the securities in fee-based advisory accounts will be $965.50 per security.

(2) Selected dealers and their financial advisors will collectively receive from the agent, MS & Co., a fixed sales commission of $34.50 for each security they sell; provided that dealers selling to investors purchasing the securities in fee-based advisory accounts will receive a sales commission of $34.50 per security. See “Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest.” For additional information, see “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” in the accompanying product supplement.

(3) See “Use of proceeds and hedging” on page 27.

The securities involve risks not associated with an investment in ordinary debt securities. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 11.

The Securities and Exchange Commission and state securities regulators have not approved or disapproved these securities, or determined if this document or the accompanying product supplement and prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The securities are not deposits or savings accounts and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality, nor are they obligations of, or guaranteed by, a bank.

(the “securities”) do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 14.50% but only if the determination closing price of each underlying stock is at or above 50% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to as the respective downside threshold level, on the related observation date. If the determination closing price of either underlying stock is less than its downside threshold level on any observation date, we will pay no coupon for the related monthly period. However, if the determination closing price of each of the underlying stocks is at or above its respective downside threshold level on any subsequent observation date, investors will receive, in addition to the contingent monthly coupon for the related monthly period, any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons from prior observation dates. It is possible that the determination closing price of one or both underlying stocks will remain below their respective downside threshold levels for extended periods of time or even throughout the entire 2-year term of the securities so that you will receive few or no contingent monthly coupons during the entire term of the securities. We refer to these coupons as contingent, because there is no guarantee that you will receive a coupon payment on any coupon payment date. Even if both underlying stocks were to be at or above their respective downside threshold levels on some monthly observation dates, one or both underlying stocks may fluctuate below the respective downside threshold level(s) on others, and the underlying stocks may not close at or above their respective downside threshold level on any subsequent observation date, in which case you will not receive payment of any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons. In addition, if the securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the final share price of either underlying stock is less than its respective downside threshold level, investors will be exposed to the decline in the worst performing underlying stock on a 1-to-1 basis, and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 50% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment and also the risk of not receiving any contingent monthly payments throughout the entire 2-year term of the securities.

Principal at Risk Securities

The original issue price 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. We estimate that the value of each security on the pricing date is $942.80.

What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?

In valuing the securities on the pricing date, we take into account that the securities comprise both a debt component and a performance-based component linked to the underlying stocks. The estimated value of the securities is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the underlying stocks, instruments based on the underlying stocks, 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 contingent monthly coupon rate and the downside threshold levels, 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 terms of the securities would be more favorable to you.

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

The price at which MS & Co. purchases the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying stocks, may vary from, and be lower than, the estimated value on the pricing date, because the secondary market price takes into account our secondary market credit spread as well as the bid-offer spread that MS & Co. would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type and other factors. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying stocks, 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 do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities will pay a contingent monthly coupon but only if the determination closing price of each underlying stock is at or above its respective downside threshold level on the related observation date. The securities have been designed for investors who are willing to forgo market floating interest rates and risk the loss of principal and accept the risk of receiving few or no coupon payments for the entire 2-year term of the securities in exchange for an opportunity to earn interest at a potentially above-market rate if both underlying stocks close at or above their respective downside threshold levels, unless the securities are redeemed early. The following scenarios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how the coupon and the payment at maturity (if the securities have not previously been redeemed) are calculated, and do not attempt to demonstrate every situation that may occur. Accordingly, the securities may or may not be redeemed, the contingent coupon may be payable in none of, or some but not all of, the monthly periods during the 2-year term of the securities, and the payment at maturity may be less than 50% of the stated principal amount of the securities and may be zero.

Hypothetical Examples

The following hypothetical examples illustrate how to determine whether a contingent monthly coupon is paid with respect to an observation date and how to calculate the payment at maturity, if any, assuming the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether you receive a contingent monthly coupon will be determined by reference to the determination closing price of each underlying stock on each monthly observation date. Whether the securities are redeemed early will be determined by reference to the determination closing price of each underlying stock on each monthly redemption determination date (beginning approximately three months after the original issue date) and the amount you will receive at maturity, if any, will be determined by reference to the final share price of each underlying stock on the final observation date. The actual initial share price and downside threshold level for each underlying stock are set forth on the cover of this document. All payments on the securities, if any, are subject to our credit risk. The below examples are based on the following terms:

1 The actual contingent monthly coupon will be an amount determined by the calculation agent based on the number of days in the applicable payment period, calculated on a 30/360 day-count basis. The hypothetical contingent monthly coupon of $12.083 is used in these examples for ease of analysis.

How to determine whether a contingent monthly coupon is payable with respect to an observation date:

On hypothetical observation date 1, both the META Stock and PLTR Stock close at or above their respective downside threshold levels. Therefore, a contingent monthly coupon of $12.083 is paid on the relevant coupon payment date.

On hypothetical observation date 2, one underlying stock closes at or above its downside threshold level but the other underlying stock closes below its downside threshold level. Therefore, no contingent monthly coupon is paid on the relevant coupon payment date.

On hypothetical observation date 3, both the META Stock and PLTR Stock close at or above their respective downside threshold levels. Therefore, investors receive the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the third observation date as well as the previously unpaid contingent monthly coupon with respect to the second observation date.

On hypothetical observation date 4, each underlying stock closes below its respective downside threshold level and accordingly no contingent monthly coupon is paid on the relevant coupon payment date.

You will not receive a contingent monthly coupon on any coupon payment date if the determination closing price of either underlying stock is below its respective downside threshold level on the related observation date.

How to calculate the payment at maturity:

In the following examples, one or both underlying stocks close below the respective initial share price(s) on each redemption determination date, and, consequently, the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to, and remain outstanding until, maturity.

In example 1, the final share prices of both the META Stock and PLTR Stock are at or above their respective downside threshold levels. Therefore, investors receive at maturity the stated principal amount of the securities plus the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the final observation date and any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons from the prior observation dates. However, investors do not participate in any appreciation of either underlying stock.

In example 2, the final share price of one underlying stock is above its initial share price, but the final share price of the other underlying stock is below its downside threshold level. Therefore, investors are exposed to the downside performance of the worst performing underlying stock at maturity and receive an amount equal to the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock.

In example 3, the final share price of one underlying stock is at or above its downside threshold level, but the final share price of the other underlying stock is below its downside threshold level. Therefore, investors are exposed to the downside performance of the worst performing underlying stock at maturity and receive at maturity an amount equal to the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock.

In examples 4 and 5, the final share prices of both underlying stocks are below their respective downside threshold levels, and investors receive at maturity an amount equal to the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock. In example 4, the META Stock has declined 60% from its initial share price to its final share price, while the PLTR Stock has declined 65% from its initial share price to its final share price. Therefore, the payment at maturity equals the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the PLTR Stock, which is the worst performing underlying stock in this example. In example 5, the META Stock has declined 70% from its initial share price to its final share price, while the PLTR Stock has declined 65% from its initial share price. Therefore the payment at maturity equals the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the META Stock, which is the worst performing underlying stock in this example.

If the final share price of EITHER underlying stock is below its respective downside threshold level, you will be exposed to the downside performance of the worst performing underlying stock at maturity, and your payment at maturity will be less than 50% of the stated principal amount per security and could be zero.

Risk Factors

This section describes the material risks relating to the securities. For further discussion of these and other risks, you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus. You should also consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the securities.

Risks Relating to an Investment in the Securities

￭The securities do not guarantee the return of any principal. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that they do not guarantee the return of any of the principal amount at maturity. If the securities have not been automatically redeemed prior to maturity and if the final share price of either underlying stock is less than its downside threshold level of 50% of its initial share price, you will be exposed to the decline in the closing price of the worst performing underlying stock, as compared to the initial share price, on a 1-to-1 basis, and you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity an amount equal to the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock. In this case, the payment at maturity will be less than 50% of the stated principal amount and could be zero. You could lose up to your entire investment in the securities.

￭The securities do not provide for the regular payment of interest and may pay no interest over the entire term of the securities. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that they do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities will pay a contingent monthly coupon but only if the determination closing price of each underlying stock is at or above 50% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to as the respective downside threshold level, on the related observation date. If the determination closing price of either underlying stock is lower than its downside threshold level on the relevant observation date for any interest period, we will pay no coupon on the applicable coupon payment date. However, if the determination closing price of each of the underlying stocks is at or above its respective downside threshold level on any subsequent observation date, investors will receive, in addition to the contingent monthly coupon for the related monthly period, any previously unpaid contingent monthly coupons from prior observation dates. Nevertheless, it is possible that the determination closing price of either underlying stock could remain below the respective downside threshold level for extended periods of time or even throughout the entire 2-year term of the securities so that you will receive few or no contingent monthly coupons. If you do not earn sufficient contingent coupons over the term of the securities, the overall return on the securities may be less than the amount that would be paid on a conventional debt security of ours of comparable maturity.

￭The contingent coupon, if any, is based only on the determination closing prices of the underlying stocks on the related monthly observation date at the end of the related interest period. Whether the contingent coupon will be paid on any coupon payment date will be determined at the end of the relevant interest period based on the determination closing price of each underlying stock on the relevant monthly observation date. As a result, you will not know whether you will receive the contingent coupon on any coupon payment date until near the end of the relevant interest period. Moreover, because the contingent coupon is based solely on the price of each underlying stock on monthly observation dates, if the determination closing price of either underlying stock on any observation date is below the respective downside threshold level, you will receive no coupon for the related interest period, or any previously unpaid coupons, even if the price(s) of one or both underlying stocks were higher on other days during that interest period.

￭Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the price of either underlying stock. Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the price of either underlying stock from its initial share price, and the return on the securities will be limited to the contingent monthly coupon, if any, that is paid with respect to each observation date on which both determination closing prices are greater than or equal to their respective downside threshold levels, if any.

￭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. may be willing to purchase or sell the securities in the secondary market. We expect that generally the level of interest rates available in the market and the prices of the underlying stocks on any day, including in relation to the respective downside threshold levels, will affect the value of the securities more than any other factors. Other factors that may influence the value of the securities include:

othe trading price and volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the underlying stocks,

owhether the determination closing price of either underlying stock has been below its respective downside threshold level on any observation date,

odividend rates on the underlying stocks,

ogeopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying stocks and which may affect the prices of the underlying stocks,

othe time remaining until the securities mature,

ointerest and yield rates in the market,

othe availability of comparable instruments,

othe occurrence of certain events affecting the underlying stock that may or may not require an adjustment to the adjustment factor, and

oany 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. For example, you may have to sell your securities at a substantial discount from the stated principal amount of $1,000 per security if the price of either underlying stock at the time of sale is near or below its downside threshold level or if market interest rates rise.

The price of either or both underlying stocks may be, and have recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. The prices of either or both the underlying stocks may decrease and be below the respective downside threshold level(s) on each observation date so that you will receive no return on your investment or receive a payment at maturity that is less than 50% of the stated principal amount. There can be no assurance that the determination closing prices of both underlying stocks will be at or above their respective downside threshold levels on any observation date so that you will receive a coupon payment on the securities for the applicable interest period or, with respect to the final observation date, so that you do not suffer a significant loss on your initial investment in the securities. The PLTR Stock began trading on September 30, 2020 and therefore has limited historical performance. See “Meta Platforms, Inc. Overview” and “Palantir Technologies Inc. Overview” below.

￭The securities 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 securities. You are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the securities on each coupon payment date, upon automatic redemption and at maturity and therefore you are subject to our credit risk. The securities are not guaranteed by any other entity. If we default on our 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 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 securities.

￭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.

￭Reinvestment risk. The term of your investment in the securities may be shortened due to the automatic early redemption feature of the securities. If the securities are redeemed prior to maturity, you will receive no more contingent monthly coupons and may be forced to invest in a lower interest rate environment and may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns. However, under no circumstances will the securities be redeemed in the first three months of the term of the securities.

￭Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the class A common stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. or the class A common stock of Palantir Technologies Inc. Investors in the securities will not participate in any appreciation in the underlying stocks, and will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying stocks. As a result, any return on the securities will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned shares of the underlying stocks and received the dividends paid or distributions made on them.

￭The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited, and accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities for the entire 2-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. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time. When it does make a market, it will generally do so for transactions of routine secondary market size at prices based on its estimate of the current value of the securities, taking into account its bid/offer spread, our credit spreads, market volatility, the notional size of the proposed sale, the cost of unwinding any related hedging positions, the time remaining to maturity and the likelihood that it will be able to resell the securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Since other broker-dealers may not participate significantly in the secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which MS & Co. is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS & Co. were to cease making a market in the securities, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the securities. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities to maturity.

Principal at Risk Securities

￭The rate we are willing to pay for securities of this type, maturity and issuance size is likely to be lower than the rate implied by our secondary market credit spreads and advantageous to us. Both the lower rate and the inclusion of costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the securities, cause the estimated value of the securities to be less than the original issue price and will adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the prices, if any, at which dealers, including MS & Co., may be willing to purchase the securities in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the original issue price, because secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the original issue price and borne by you and because the secondary market prices will reflect our secondary market credit spreads and the bid-offer spread that any dealer would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type as well as other factors.

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

However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying stocks, 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.

￭Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates could potentially affect the value of the securities. One or more of our affiliates and/or third-party dealers expect to carry out hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the underlying stocks), including trading in the underlying stocks. Some of our affiliates also trade the underlying stocks and other financial instruments related to the underlying stocks on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. As a result, these entities may be unwinding or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the securities, and the hedging strategy may involve greater and more frequent dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the final observation date approaches. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could potentially increase the initial share price of an underlying stock, and, therefore, could increase (i) the value at or above which such underlying stock must close on the redemption determination dates so that the securities are redeemed prior to maturity for the early redemption payment (depending also on the performance of the other underlying stock) and (ii) the downside threshold level for such underlying stock, which is the value at or above which the underlying stock must close on the observation dates so that you receive a contingent monthly coupon on the securities (depending also on the performance of the other underlying stock), and, with respect to the final observation date, so that you are not exposed to the negative performance of the worst performing underlying stock at maturity (depending also on the performance of the other underlying stock). Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially affect the value of either underlying stock on the redemption determination dates and the observation dates, and, accordingly, whether we redeem the securities prior to maturity, whether we pay a contingent monthly coupon on the securities and the amount of cash you will receive at maturity, if any (depending also on the performance of the other underlying stock).

￭The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MS & Co. will determine the initial share prices, the downside threshold levels, the final share prices, the payment at maturity, if any, whether you receive a contingent monthly coupon on each coupon payment date and/or at maturity, whether the securities will be redeemed on any early redemption date, whether a market disruption event has occurred and whether to make any adjustments to the adjustment factors. 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 certain adjustments to the adjustment factors. These potentially subjective determinations may affect the payout to you upon an automatic early redemption or at maturity, if any. For further information regarding these types of determinations, see “Description of Auto-Callable Securities—Auto-Callable Securities Linked to Underlying Shares” and “—Calculation Agent and Calculations” and related definitions in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date.

￭The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain. There is no direct legal authority as to the proper treatment of the securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and, therefore, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain.

Please read the discussion under “Additional Information—Tax considerations” in this document concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities. We intend to treat a security for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a single financial contract that provides for a coupon that will be treated as gross income to you at the time received or accrued, in accordance with your regular method of tax accounting. Under this treatment, the ordinary income treatment of the coupon payments, in conjunction with the capital loss treatment of any loss recognized upon the sale, exchange or settlement of the securities, could result in adverse tax consequences to holders of the securities because the deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. We do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the tax treatment of the securities, and the IRS or a court may not agree with the tax treatment described herein. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the timing and character of income or loss on the securities might differ significantly from the tax treatment described herein. For example, under one possible treatment, the IRS could seek to recharacterize the securities as debt instruments. In that event, U.S. Holders (as defined below) 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 (as adjusted based on the difference, if any, between the actual and the projected amount of any contingent payments on the securities) and recognize all income and gain in respect of the securities as ordinary income. The risk that financial instruments providing for buffers, triggers or similar downside protection features, such as the securities, would be recharacterized as debt is greater than the risk of recharacterization for comparable financial instruments that do not have such features. Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities, possibly retroactively.

Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) should note that we currently intend to withhold on any coupon paid to Non-U.S. Holders generally at a rate of 30%, or at a reduced rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty under an “other income” or similar provision, and will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.

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, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Risks Relating to the Underlying Stocks

￭You are exposed to the price risk of both underlying stocks, with respect to both the contingent monthly coupons, if any, and the payment at maturity, if any. Your return on the securities is not linked to a basket consisting of both underlying stocks. Rather, it will be contingent upon the independent performance of each underlying stock. Unlike an instrument with a return linked to a basket of underlying assets, in which risk is mitigated and diversified among all the components of the basket, you will be exposed to the risks related to both underlying stocks. Poor performance by either underlying stock over the term of the securities may negatively affect your return and will not be offset or mitigated by any positive performance by the other underlying stock. To receive any contingent monthly coupons, both underlying stocks must close at or above their respective downside threshold levels on the applicable observation date. In addition, if either underlying stock has declined to below its respective downside threshold level as of the final observation date, you will be fully exposed to the decline in the worst performing underlying stock over the term of the securities on a 1-to-1 basis, even if the other underlying stock has appreciated. Under this scenario, the payment at maturity will be less than 50% of the stated principal amount and could be zero. Accordingly, your investment is subject to the price risk of both underlying stocks.

￭No affiliation with Meta Platforms, Inc. or Palantir Technologies Inc. Meta Platforms, Inc. and Palantir Technologies Inc. are not affiliates of ours, are not involved with this offering in any way, and have no obligation to consider your interests in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of the securities. We have not made any due diligence inquiry with respect to Meta Platforms, Inc. or Palantir Technologies Inc. in connection with this offering.

￭We may engage in business with or involving Meta Platforms, Inc. or Palantir Technologies Inc. without regard to your interests. We or our affiliates may presently or from time to time engage in business with Meta Platforms, Inc. or Palantir Technologies Inc. without regard to your interests and thus may acquire non-public information about Meta Platforms, Inc. or Palantir Technologies Inc. Neither we nor any of our affiliates undertakes to disclose any such information to you. In addition, we or our affiliates from time to time have published and in the future may publish research reports with respect to Meta Platforms, Inc. or Palantir Technologies Inc., which may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold the underlying stock(s).

￭The antidilution adjustments the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every corporate event that could affect the underlying stocks. MS & Co., as calculation agent, will adjust the adjustment factors for certain corporate events affecting the underlying stocks, such as stock splits, stock dividends and extraordinary dividends, and certain other corporate

actions involving the issuers of the underlying stocks, such as mergers. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment for every corporate event that can affect the underlying stocks. For example, the calculation agent is not required to make any adjustments if the issuers of the underlying stocks or anyone else makes a partial tender or partial exchange offer for the underlying stocks, nor will adjustments be made following the final observation date. In addition, no adjustments will be made for regular cash dividends, which are expected to reduce the price of the underlying stocks by the amount of such dividends. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to adjust an adjustment factor, such as a regular cash dividend, the market price of the securities and your return on the securities may be materially and adversely affected. For example, if the record date for a regular cash dividend were to occur on or shortly before an observation date, this may decrease the determination closing price of an underlying stock to be less than the respective downside threshold level (resulting in no contingent monthly coupon being paid with respect to such date) or the final share price to be less than the respective downside threshold level (resulting in a loss of a significant portion of all of your investment in the securities), materially and adversely affecting your return.
