All Payments on the Securities Based on the Worst
Performing of the Common Stock of Applied Materials, Inc., the Common Stock of Twitter, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Dropbox,
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 common stock of Applied Materials, Inc., the common
stock of Twitter, Inc. and the class A common stock of Dropbox, Inc.
, which we refer to collectively as the underlying stocks,
is
at or above
60% of its respective initial share price,
which we refer to as the respective coupon threshold level,
on the related
observation date. If, however, the determination closing price of
any underlying stock
is less than its respective coupon
threshold level on any observation date, we will pay no interest for the related monthly period. 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 after three months) for the early redemption payment equal to the sum of the stated principal amount plus the related
contingent monthly coupon. 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
50% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to as
the respective downside threshold level, the payment at maturity will also be the stated principal amount and, if the final share
price of
each
underlying stock is also greater than or equal to its respective coupon threshold level, the related contingent
monthly coupon. However, if the final share price of
any 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,
i
nvestors
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 5-year term of the securities.
These long-dated 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 interest over the entire 5-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 three underlying stocks does not provide any asset diversification benefits
and instead means that a decline of
any
underlying stock below the relevant coupon threshold level will result in no contingent
monthly coupons, even if one or both of the other underlying stocks close at or above the respective coupon threshold levels. Because
all payments on the securities are based on the worst performing of the underlying stocks, a decline beyond the respective coupon
threshold level or respective downside threshold level, as applicable, of any underlying stock will result in no contingent monthly
coupon payments or a significant loss of your investment, as applicable, even if one or both of the other underlying stocks have
appreciated or have not declined as much. Investors will not participate in any appreciation of any 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.

The securities are not subject to automatic early redemption until
September 18, 2019. Following this initial 3-month non-call period, if, on any redemption determination date, beginning on September
13, 2019, the determination closing price of
each underlying stock
is greater than or equal to its respective initial share
price, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment on the related early redemption date. No further
payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
The securities will not be redeemed early on any early redemption
date if the determination closing price of any underlying stock is below its respective initial share price on the related redemption
determination date.
|
Early redemption payment:
|
The early redemption payment will be an amount equal to (i) the stated principal amount for each security you hold
plus
(ii) the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the related observation date.
|
Determination closing price:
|
With respect to each underlying stock, the closing price of such underlying stock on any redemption determination date or observation date (other than the final observation date)
times
the adjustment factor on such determination date or observation date, as applicable

|
Starting after three months, monthly, as set forth under “Observation Dates, Redemption Determination Dates, Coupon Payment Dates and Early Redemption Dates” below, subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events
|
Early redemption dates:
|
Starting on September 18, 2019 (approximately three months after the original issue date), monthly. See “Observation Dates, Redemption Determination Dates, Coupon Payment Dates and Early Redemption Dates” below. If any such day is not a business day, that early redemption payment will be made on the next succeeding business day and no adjustment will be made to any early redemption payment made on that succeeding business day.

|
A
contingent
monthly coupon at an annual rate of 24.00%
(corresponding to approximately $20.00 per month per security) will be paid on the securities on each coupon payment date
but
only if
the determination closing price of
each underlying stock
is at or above its respective coupon threshold
level on the related observation date.
If, on any observation date, the determination closing price
of any underlying stock is less than its respective coupon threshold level, no contingent monthly coupon will be paid with respect
to that observation date. It is possible that one or more underlying stocks will remain below their respective coupon threshold
levels for extended periods of time or even throughout the entire 5-year term of the securities so that you will receive few or
no contingent monthly coupons.
|
Payment at maturity:
|
If the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, investors
will receive a payment at maturity determined as follows:
·
If
the final share price of
each underlying stock
is
greater than or equal to
its respective downside threshold level:
(i) the stated principal amount and, if the final share price of
each underlying stock
is also
greater than or equal
to its respective coupon threshold level, the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the final observation date
·
If
the final share price of
any underlying stock
is
less than
its respective downside threshold level: (i) the stated
principal amount
multiplied by
(ii) the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock
Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity
will be significantly less than the stated principal amount of $1,000, and will represent a loss of more than 50%, and possibly
all, of your investment.

Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due June 18, 2024
All Payments on the Securities Based on the Worst Performing of the Common Stock of Applied Materials, Inc., the Common Stock of
Twitter, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Dropbox, Inc. (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 24.00%
but only if
the determination
closing price of
each underlying stock
is
at or above
60% of its respective initial share price, which we refer to
as the respective coupon threshold level, on the related observation date. If the determination closing price of
any underlying
stock
is less than its coupon threshold level on any observation date, we will pay no coupon for the related monthly period.
It is possible that the determination closing price of
one or more underlying stocks will remain below their respective coupon
threshold levels
for extended periods of time or even throughout the entire 5-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 all of the underlying
stocks were to be at or above their respective coupon threshold levels on some monthly observation dates, one or more underlying
stocks may fluctuate below the respective coupon threshold level(s) on others. In addition, if the securities have not been automatically
called prior to maturity and the final share price of
any 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 5-year term of the securities.
Maturity:
|
5 years
|
|
|
Contingent monthly coupon:
|
A
contingent
monthly coupon at an annual rate of 24.00%
(corresponding to approximately $20.00 per month per security) will be paid on the securities on each coupon payment date
but
only if
the determination closing price of
each underlying stock
is at or above its respective coupon threshold level
on the related observation date.
If on any observation date, the determination closing price
of any underlying stock is less than its respective coupon threshold level, we will pay no coupon for the applicable monthly period.
|
Automatic early redemption monthly after three months:
|
Starting on September 13, 2019, if the determination closing price of
each underlying stock
is greater than or equal to their respective initial share price on any monthly redemption determination date, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount
plus
the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the related observation date.
|
|
|
Payment 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 be the stated principal amount, and, if the final share price of
each underlying stock
is also
greater
than or equal
to its respective coupon threshold level, the related contingent monthly coupon.
If the final share price of
any underlying stock
is less
than its downside threshold level, investors will receive a payment at maturity based on the decline in the worst performing underlying
stock over the term of the securities. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than 50% of the stated principal
amount of the securities and could be zero.
Accordingly,
i
nvestors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk
of losing their entire initial investment.

All Payments on the Securities Based on the Worst Performing of the Common Stock of Applied Materials, Inc., the Common Stock of Twitter, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Dropbox, Inc.
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 $928.40.
What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?
In valuing the securities on the pricing date,
we take into account that the securities comprise both a debt component and a performance-based component linked to the 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, the coupon threshold levels 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.

All Payments on the Securities Based on the Worst Performing of the Common Stock of Applied Materials, Inc., the Common Stock of Twitter, Inc. and the Class A Common Stock of Dropbox, Inc.
Principal at Risk Securities
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 coupon 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 5-year term of the securities in exchange for an opportunity to earn interest
at a potentially above-market rate if all of the underlying stocks close at or above their respective coupon threshold levels on
each monthly observation date, unless the securities are redeemed early. The following scenarios are for illustration 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 5-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.
Scenario 1: The securities are redeemed prior to maturity
|
This scenario assumes that, prior to early redemption, all of
the underlying stocks close at or above their respective coupon threshold levels on some monthly observation dates, but one or
more underlying stocks close below the respective coupon threshold level(s) on the others. Investors receive the contingent monthly
coupon for the monthly periods for which the determination closing prices of all of the underlying stocks are at or above their
respective coupon threshold levels on the related observation date, but not for the monthly periods for which the determination
closing prices of one or more underlying stocks are below the respective coupon threshold level(s) on the related observation date.
When all of the underlying stocks close at or above their respective
initial share prices on a monthly redemption determination date (beginning after three months), the securities will be automatically
redeemed for the stated principal amount
plus
the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the related observation date.
|
Scenario 2: The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive principal back at maturity
|
This scenario assumes that all of the underlying stocks close
at or above their respective coupon threshold levels on some monthly observation dates, but one or more underlying stocks close
below the respective coupon threshold level(s) on the others, and at least one of the underlying stocks closes below its initial
share price on every monthly redemption determination date. Consequently, the securities are not redeemed early, and investors
receive the contingent monthly coupon for the monthly periods for which the determination closing prices of all of the underlying
stocks are at or above their coupon downside threshold levels on the related observation date, but not for the monthly periods
for which the determination closing prices of one or more underlying stocks are below the respective coupon threshold level(s)
on the related observation date.
On the final observation date, all of the underlying stocks close
at or above their respective downside threshold levels. At maturity, investors will receive the stated principal amount and, if
the final share price of each underlying stock is also greater than or equal to its respective coupon threshold level, the contingent
monthly coupon with respect to the final observation date.

This scenario assumes that all of the underlying stocks close
at or above their respective coupon threshold levels on some monthly observation dates, but one or more underlying stocks close
below the respective coupon threshold level(s) on the others, and at least one of the underlying stocks closes below its initial
share prices on every monthly redemption determination date. Consequently, the securities are not redeemed early, and investors
receive the contingent monthly coupon for the monthly periods for which the determination closing prices of all of the underlying
stocks are greater than or equal to their respective coupon threshold levels on the related observation date, but not for the monthly
periods for which the determination closing prices of one or more underlying stocks are below the respective coupon threshold level(s)
on the related observation date.
On the final observation date, one or more underlying stocks
close below the respective downside threshold level(s). At maturity, investors will receive an amount equal to the stated principal
amount multiplied by the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock. Under these circumstances, the payment
at maturity will be less than 50% of the stated principal amount and could be zero. No coupon will be paid at maturity in this
scenario.

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, 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, coupon threshold level 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:
Contingent Monthly Coupon:
|
24.00% per annum (corresponding to approximately $20.00 per month
per security)
1
With respect to each coupon payment date, a contingent monthly
coupon is paid but only if the determination closing price of each underlying stock is at or above its respective coupon threshold
level on the related observation date.
|
Payment at Maturity (if the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity):
|
If the final share price of
each
underlying stock is
greater
than or equal to
its respective downside threshold level: the stated principal amount, and, if the final share price of
each
underlying stock
is also
greater than or equal to
its respective coupon threshold level, the contingent monthly coupon
with respect to the final observation date
If the final share price of
any
underlying stock is
less
than
its respective downside threshold level: (i) the stated principal amount
multiplied by
(ii) the share performance
factor of the worst performing underlying stock
|
Stated Principal Amount:
|
$1,000
|
Hypothetical Initial Share Price:
|
With respect to the AMAT Stock: $40.00
With respect to the TWTR Stock: $35.00
With respect to the DBX Stock: $20.00
|
Hypothetical Coupon Threshold Level:
|
With respect to the AMAT Stock: $24.00, which is 60% of its hypothetical
initial share price
With respect to the TWTR Stock: $21.00, which is 60% of its hypothetical
initial share price
With respect to the DBX Stock: $12.00, which is 60% of its hypothetical
initial share price
|
Hypothetical Downside Threshold Level:
|
With respect to the AMAT Stock: $20.00, which is 50% of its hypothetical
initial share price
With respect to the TWTR Stock: $17.50, which is 50% of its hypothetical
initial share price
With respect to the DBX Stock: $10.00, which is 50% of its hypothetical
initial share price

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 $20.00 is used in these examples for ease of analysis.

On hypothetical observation date 1, each of the underlying stocks
closes at or above its respective coupon threshold level. Therefore, a hypothetical contingent monthly coupon of $20.00 is paid
on the relevant coupon payment date.
On each of hypothetical observation dates 2 and 3, at least one
underlying stock closes at or above its coupon threshold level, but one or more of the other underlying stocks close below their
coupon downside threshold level(s). Therefore, no contingent monthly coupon is paid on the relevant coupon payment date.
On hypothetical observation date 4, each of the underlying stocks
closes below its respective coupon 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 any underlying stock is below its respective coupon threshold level on the related
observation date.
How to calculate the payment at maturity (if
the securities have not been automatically redeemed):
Starting after three months, if the final share price of each
underlying stock is greater than or equal to its initial share price on any monthly redemption determination date, the securities
will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount for each security
plus
the
contingent monthly coupon with respect to the related observation date. In the following examples, one or more 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.

|
$14.35 (
below
its downside threshold level)
|
$11.10 (
at or above
its downside threshold level)
|
$1,000 x share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock = $1,000 x ($12.00 / $40.00) = $300.00
|
Example 2:
|
$25.00 (
at or above
its downside threshold level)
|
$22.75 (
at or above
its downside threshold level)
|
$8.00 (
below
its downside threshold level)
|
$1,000 x share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock = $1,000 x ($8.00 / $20.00) = $400.00
|
Example 3:
|
$16.00 (
below
its downside threshold level)
|
$7.00 (
below
its downside threshold level)
|
$5.00 (
below

|
$1,000 x ($7.00 / $35.00) = $200.00

In examples 1 and 2, the final share price(s) of one or two of
the underlying stocks are at or above the respective downside threshold level(s), but the final share price(s) of one or both of
the other underlying stocks are below the respective downside threshold level(s). 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
times
the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock. Moreover, investors do not receive any
contingent monthly coupon for the final monthly period.
Similarly, in examples 3 and 4, the final share prices of all
of the underlying stocks are below their respective downside threshold levels, and investors receive at maturity an amount equal
to the stated principal amount
times
the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock. In example 3,
the AMAT Stock has declined 60% from its initial share price to its final share price, the TWTR Stock has declined 80% from its
initial share price to its final share price and the DBX Stock has declined 75% from its initial share price to its final share
price. Therefore, the payment at maturity equals the stated principal amount
times
the share performance factor of the TWTR
Stock, which represents the worst performing underlying stock in this example. In example 4, the AMAT Stock has declined 60% from
its initial share price to its final share price, the TWTR Stock has declined 70% from its initial share price to its final share
price and the DBX Stock has declined 80% from its initial share price to its final share price. Therefore, the payment at maturity
equals the stated principal amount
times
the share performance factor of the DBX Stock, which represents the worst performing
underlying stock in this example. Moreover, investors do not receive the contingent monthly coupon for the final monthly period.
In example 5, the final share price of each underlying stock
is at or above its respective downside threshold level and coupon threshold level. Therefore, investors receive at maturity the
stated principal amount of the securities
plus
the contingent monthly coupon with respect to the final observation date.
However, investors do not participate in any appreciation of any of the underlying stocks.
If the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity and the
final share price of ANY 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
The
following is a list of certain key risk factors for investors in the securities. For further discussion of these and other risks,
you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus. You should
also consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers
in connection with your 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
any
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 its 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
times
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
60% of
its respective initial share price, which we refer to as the respective coupon threshold level, on the related observation date.
If, on the other hand, the determination closing price of
any
underlying stock is lower than its coupon threshold level
on the relevant observation date for any interest period, we will pay no coupon on the applicable coupon payment date. It is possible
that the determination closing price(s) of one or more underlying stocks could remain below the respective coupon threshold level(s)
for extended periods of time or even throughout the entire 5-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.
|
|
§
|
You are exposed to the price risk of all of the 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 the 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 each
of the underlying stocks. Poor performance by
any
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 stocks. To receive
any
contingent monthly coupons,
all
of the underlying stocks must close at or above their respective coupon threshold levels on the
applicable observation date. In addition, if
any
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
stocks have appreciated or have not declined as much. Under this scenario, the value of any such payment will be less than 50%
of the stated principal amount and could be zero. Accordingly, your investment is subject to the price risk of all of the underlying
stocks.
|
|
§
|
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 any underlying stock on any observation date is below

the
respective coupon threshold level, you will receive no coupon for the related interest period, even if the price(s) of one or
more of the underlying stocks were higher on other days during that interest period.
|
§
|
Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the price of any underlying stock.
Investors will not participate
in any appreciation in the price of any 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 all determination
closing prices are greater than or equal to their respective coupon 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
coupon threshold levels and 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:
|
|
o
|
the trading price and volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the underlying stocks,
|
|
o
|
whether the determination closing price of any underlying stock has been below its respective coupon threshold level on any
observation date,
|
|
o
|
dividend rates on the underlying stocks,
|
|
o
|
geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying stocks
and which may affect the prices of the underlying stocks,
|
|
o
|
the time remaining until the securities mature,
|
|
o
|
interest and yield rates in the market,
|
|
o
|
the availability of comparable instruments,
|
|
o
|
the occurrence of certain events affecting the underlying stock that may or may not require an adjustment to the adjustment
factor, and
|
|
o
|
any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads.
|
Generally,
the longer the time remaining to maturity, the more the market price of the securities will be affected by the other factors described
above. 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 any underlying stock at the time of sale is near or below its coupon threshold level, and especially if the price
of any underlying stock at the time of sale is near or below its downside threshold level, or if market interest rates rise.
The
prices of the underlying stocks may be, and have recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility
will lessen.
The price of one or more of the underlying stocks may decrease and close below the respective coupon threshold
level(s) on each observation date so that you will receive no return on your investment,
and
the price of one or more underlying stocks may decrease and close below the respective downside threshold level on the final observation
date so that you
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 all of the underlying stocks will be at or above their respective coupon 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, that the closing prices of all of the underlying stocks will be at or above the respective
downside threshold levels so that you do not suffer a significant loss on your initial investment in the securities. The DBX Stock
began trading on March 23, 2018 and therefore has limited historical performance.

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
common stock of Applied Materials, Inc., the common stock of Twitter, Inc. or the class A common stock of Dropbox, 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.

No affiliation with Applied Materials, Inc., Twitter, Inc. or Dropbox, Inc.
Applied Materials, Inc., Twitter, Inc. and
Dropbox, 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 Applied Materials, Inc., Twitter, Inc. or Dropbox, Inc. in connection with this offering.

We may engage in business with or involving Applied Materials, Inc., Twitter, Inc. or Dropbox, Inc. without regard to your

We or our affiliates may presently or from time to time engage in business with Applied Materials, Inc., Twitter,

we or our affiliates from time to time have published and in the future may publish research reports with respect to Applied Materials,

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 coupon 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.

§
|
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 5-year term of the securities.
The securities
will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. MS &
Co. 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.
|
|
§
|
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,

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
have carried out, and will continue 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 have increased the initial share price of an underlying
stock, and, therefore, could have increased (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 stocks), (ii), the coupon threshold level for such underlying stock, which is the value at
or above which such 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 stocks), and (iii) the downside threshold level for such
underlying stock, which is the value at or above which such underlying stock must close on 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 stocks). Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially
affect the value of any 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 stocks).

§
|
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. has determined the initial
share prices, the coupon threshold levels and the downside threshold levels and will determine 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.
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.
In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department
and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts”
and similar instruments. While it is not clear whether the securities would be viewed as similar to the prepaid forward contracts
described in the notice, it is possible that any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these
issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive
effect. The notice focuses on a number of issues, the most relevant of which for holders of the securities are the character and
timing of income or loss and the degree, if any, to which income realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding
tax. Both U.S. and Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an
investment in the securities, including possible alternative treatments, the issues presented by this notice and any tax consequences
arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

If any observation date or redemption determination date is postponed due to a non-trading day or certain market disruption events with respect to each underlying stock so that it falls less than two business days prior to the relevant scheduled coupon payment date (including the maturity date) or early redemption date, as applicable, the coupon payment date (or the maturity date) or the early redemption date will be postponed to the second business day following that observation date or redemption determination date as postponed, and no adjustment will be made to any coupon payment, early redemption payment or payment at maturity made on that postponed date.

Antidilution adjustments:
|
The following replaces in its entirety the portion of the
section entitled “Antidilution Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities from
the start of paragraph 5 to the end of such section.
5. If, with respect to one or more of the underlying stocks,
(i) there occurs any reclassification or change of such underlying stock, including, without limitation, as a result of the issuance
of any tracking stock by the underlying stock issuer for such underling stock, (ii) such underlying stock issuer or any surviving
entity or subsequent surviving entity of such underlying stock issuer (the “successor corporation”) has been subject
to a merger, combination or consolidation and is not the surviving entity, (iii) any statutory exchange of securities of such underlying
stock issuer or any successor corporation with another corporation occurs (other than pursuant to clause (ii) above), (iv) such
underlying stock issuer is liquidated, (v) such underlying stock issuer issues to all of its shareholders equity securities of
an issuer other than such underlying stock issuer (other than in a transaction described in clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above) (a
“spin-off event”) or (vi) a tender or exchange offer or going-private transaction is consummated for all the outstanding
shares of such underlying stock (any such event in clauses (i) through (vi), a “reorganization event”), the method
of determining whether an early redemption has occurred and the amount payable upon an early redemption date or at maturity for
each security will be as follows:
·
Upon
any redemption determination date following the effective date of a reorganization event and prior to the final observation date:
If the exchange property value (as defined below) is greater than or equal to its initial share price, and the determination closing
price (or exchange property value, if applicable) of each other underlying stock is also greater than or equal to its initial share
price, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment.

Upon
the final observation date, if the securities have not previously been automatically redeemed: You will receive for each security
that you hold a payment at maturity equal to:
Ø
If
the exchange property value on the final observation date is greater than or equal to the respective downside threshold level,
and the final share price of each other underlying stock (or exchange property value, as applicable) is also greater than or equal
to its respective downside threshold level:
the stated principal amount, and, if the exchange property value on the final observation
date is also greater than or equal to the respective coupon threshold level, and the final share price of each other underlying
stock (or exchange property value, as applicable) is also greater than or equal to its respective coupon threshold level, the contingent
monthly coupon with respect to the final observation date.
Ø
If
the exchange property value on the final observation date is less than the respective downside threshold level, or if the final
share price (or exchange property value, if applicable) of any other underlying stock is less than its respective downside threshold
level:
Ø
If
the worst performing underlying stock has not undergone a reorganization event as described in paragraph 5 above:
(i) the stated
principal amount multiplied by (ii) the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock.
Ø
If
the worst performing underlying stock has undergone a reorganization event as described in paragraph 5 above:
(i) the stated
principal amount multiplied by (ii) the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock. For purposes of determining
the share performance factor of the worst performing underlying stock, the final share price of such worst performing underlying
stock will be deemed to equal the per-share cash value, determined as of the final observation date, of the securities, cash or
any other assets distributed to holders of the worst performing underlying stock in or as a result of any such reorganization event,
including (A) in the case of the issuance of tracking stock, the reclassified share of such worst performing underlying stock,
(B) in the case of a spin-off event, the share of such worst performing underlying stock with respect to which the spun-off security
was issued, and (C) in the case of any other reorganization event where such worst performing underlying stock continues to be
held by the holders receiving such distribution, such worst performing underlying stock (collectively, the “exchange property”).
Following the effective date of a reorganization event, the contingent
monthly coupon will be payable for each observation date on which the exchange property value is greater than or equal to the coupon
threshold level and the determination closing price (or exchange property value, as applicable) of each other underlying stock
is also greater than or equal to its coupon threshold level.
If exchange property includes a cash component,
investors will not receive any interest accrued on such cash component. In the event exchange property consists of securities,
those securities will, in turn, be subject to the antidilution adjustments set forth in paragraphs 1 through 5.
For purposes of determining whether or not
the exchange property value is less than the initial share price, less than the coupon threshold level or less than the downside
threshold level, or for determining the worst performing underlying stock, “exchange property value” means (x) for
any cash received in any reorganization event, the value, as determined by the calculation agent, as of the date of receipt, of
such cash received for one share of such underlying stock, as adjusted by the adjustment factor at the time of such reorganization
event, (y) for any property other than cash or securities received in any such reorganization event, the market value, as determined
by the calculation agent in its sole discretion, as of the date of receipt, of such exchange property received for one share of
such underlying stock, as adjusted by the adjustment factor at the time of such reorganization event and (z) for any security received
in any such reorganization event, an amount equal to the determination closing price, as of the day on which the exchange property
value is determined, per share of such security multiplied by the quantity of such security received for each share of such underlying
stock, as adjusted by the adjustment factor at the time of such reorganization event.

For purposes of paragraph 5 above, in the case
of a consummated tender or exchange offer or going-private transaction involving consideration of particular types, exchange property
shall be deemed to include the amount of cash or other property delivered by the offeror in the tender or exchange offer (in an
amount determined on the basis of the rate of exchange in such tender or exchange offer or going-private transaction). In the event
of a tender or exchange offer or a going-private transaction with respect to exchange property in which an offeree may elect to
receive cash or other property, exchange property shall be deemed to include the kind and amount of cash and other property received
by offerees who elect to receive cash.
Following the occurrence of any reorganization
event referred to in paragraph 5 above, all references in this offering document and in the related product supplement with respect
to the securities to such “underlying stock” shall be deemed to refer to the exchange property and references to a
“share” or “shares” of such underlying stock shall be deemed to refer to the applicable unit or units of
such exchange property, unless the context otherwise requires.
No adjustment to the adjustment factor will
be required unless such adjustment would require a change of at least 0.1% in the adjustment factor then in effect. The adjustment
factor resulting from any of the adjustments specified above will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth, with five one-millionths
rounded upward. Adjustments to the adjustment factor will be made up to the close of business on the final observation date.
No adjustments to the adjustment factor or
method of calculating the adjustment factor will be required other than those specified above. The adjustments specified above
do not cover all events that could affect the determination closing price or the final share price of such underlying stock, including,
without limitation, a partial tender or exchange offer for such underlying stock.
The calculation agent shall be solely responsible
for the determination and calculation of any adjustments to the adjustment factor or method of calculating the adjustment factor
and of any related determinations and calculations with respect to any distributions of stock, other securities or other property
or assets (including cash) in connection with any corporate event described in paragraphs 1 through 5 above, and its determinations
and calculations with respect thereto shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
The calculation agent will provide information as to any adjustments
to the adjustment factor or to the method of calculating the amount payable at maturity of the securities made pursuant to paragraph
5 above upon written request by any investor in the securities.
