Principal at Risk Securities
Linked to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027
Fully and Unconditionally
Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley
| § | Linked
to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund (the “underlying”) |
| § | The
securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and
are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Unlike ordinary debt securities,
the securities do not pay interest, do not guarantee the repayment of principal and are subject
to potential automatic call prior to the maturity date upon the terms described below. The
securities have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement for principal
at risk securities, index supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this
document. |
| § | Automatic
Call. The securities will be automatically called if the fund closing price of the underlying
on the call date is greater than or equal to the starting price for a call payment
equal to the face amount plus the call premium of 14.90% of the face amount. No further
payments will be made on the securities once they have been called. |
| § | Maturity
Payment Amount. If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, you
will receive at maturity a cash payment per security as follows: |
| § | If
the ending price of the underlying is greater than the starting price, you will receive
a maturity payment amount equal to the face amount plus a positive return equal to
125% of the percentage increase in the price of the underlying from the starting price. |
| § | If
the ending price of the underlying is equal to or less than the starting price, but
greater than or equal to 90% of the starting price, which we refer to as the threshold
price, you will receive a maturity payment amount of $1,000 per $1,000 security. |
| § | If
the ending price of the underlying is less than the threshold price, investors will
be exposed to the decline in the underlying beyond 10%, and investors will lose some or a
significant portion of their initial investment. |
| § | The
maturity payment amount may be significantly less than the face amount, and you could lose
up to 90% of your investment. |
| § | The
securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income
in exchange for the possibility of receiving a call payment greater than the face amount
if the fund closing price of the underlying is greater than or equal to the starting
price on the call date or maturity payment amount greater than the face amount if the ending
price of the underlying is greater than the starting price on the calculation day,
in addition to the buffer feature that applies to only a limited range of performance of
the underlying. |
| § | If
the securities are automatically called prior to maturity, investors will not participate
in any appreciation of the underlying. |
| § | 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 securities included in the underlying. |
The current estimated value of the securities
is $962.00 per security. The estimated value of the securities is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs
and assumptions relating to the underlying, instruments based on the underlying, 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. See “Estimated Value of the Securities” on page 3.
The securities have complex features and investing
in the securities involves risks not associated with an investment in ordinary debt securities. See “Risk Factors” beginning
on page 9. All payments on the securities are subject to our credit risk.
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, index 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.

Market Linked Securities — Auto-Callable with Leveraged Upside Participation and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027
Estimated Value of the Securities |
The face amount of each security is $1,000. This price includes costs
associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value
of the securities on the pricing date is less than $1,000 per security. We estimate that the value of each security on the pricing date
is $962.00.
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. The estimated value of
the securities is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the underlying, instruments
based on the underlying, 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
call payment amount, the buffer amount and the threshold price, we use an internal funding rate which is likely to be lower than our secondary
market credit spreads and therefore advantageous to us. If the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by you were lower
or if the internal funding rate were higher, one or more of the economic terms of the securities would be more favorable to you.
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, 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 4 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, 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.

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027
The Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Energy Select Sector
SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027 (the “securities”) may be appropriate for investors who:
| ▪ | believe that the fund closing price of the underlying will be greater than or equal to the starting price on the call date; |
| ▪ | seek the potential for a fixed return if the underlying has appreciated at all as of the call date in lieu of 125% leveraged participation
in any potential appreciation of the underlying; |
| ▪ | if the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, seek exposure to 125% of the positive performance of the underlying
if the ending price of the underlying is greater than the starting price; |
| ▪ | if the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, seek to obtain a buffer against a specified level of negative performance
of the underlying; |
| ▪ | understand that if the fund closing price of the underlying is less than the starting price on the call date and the ending
price of the underlying is less than the starting price on the calculation day, they will not receive any positive return on their
investment in the securities, and that if the fund closing price of the underlying on the calculation day has declined by more than 10%
from the starting price, they will receive less, and possibly 90% less, than the face amount per security at maturity; |
| ▪ | understand that the term of the securities may be as short as approximately one year, and that if the securities are automatically
called, no further payments will be made on the securities once they have been called; |
| ▪ | understand and are willing to accept the full downside risks of the underlying; |
| ▪ | are willing to forgo interest payments on the securities and dividends on the underlying and the stocks composing the fund underlying
index; and |
| ▪ | are willing to hold the securities until maturity. |
The securities are not designed for, and may not be an appropriate
investment for, investors who:
| ▪ | seek a liquid investment or are unable or unwilling to hold the securities to maturity; |
| ▪ | require full payment of the face amount of the securities at maturity; |
| ▪ | believe that the fund closing price of the underlying will be less than the starting price on the call date or the calculation day; |
| ▪ | seek a security with a fixed term; |
| ▪ | are unwilling to accept the risk that, if the fund closing price of the underlying is less than the starting price on the call date
or, if the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, the calculation day, they will not receive any positive return on
their investment in the securities; |
| ▪ | are unwilling to accept the risk that, if the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, the price of the underlying
on the calculation day may decline by more than 10% from the starting price to the ending price, in which case they will receive less,
and possibly 90% less, than the face amount per security at maturity; |
| ▪ | seek current income; |
| ▪ | are unwilling to accept the risk of exposure to the underlying; |
| ▪ | are unwilling to accept our credit risk; or |
| ▪ | prefer the lower risk of fixed income investments with comparable maturities issued by companies with comparable credit ratings. |
The considerations identified above are not
exhaustive. Whether or not the securities are an appropriate investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you
should reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered
the appropriateness of an investment in the securities in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the
“Risk Factors” herein and in the accompanying product supplement for risks related to an investment in the securities. For
more information about the underlying, please see the section titled “Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund Overview”

Scenario Analysis and Examples of Hypothetical
Payments on the Securities |
The following scenario analysis and examples are provided for illustrative
purposes only and are hypothetical. Whether the securities are automatically called prior to maturity will be determined by reference
to the fund closing price of the underlying on the call date, and the maturity payment amount will be determined by reference to the fund
closing price of the underlying on the calculation day. The actual starting price and threshold price are set forth under “Final
Terms” above. Some numbers appearing in the examples below have been rounded for ease of analysis. All payments on the securities
are subject to our credit risk. The below examples are based on the following terms*:
Investment term: |
Approximately 3 years |
Call payment: |
The call payment will be an amount in cash per face amount (corresponding
to a return of approximately 14.90% of the face amount), as follows:
• Call date: $1,149
No further payments will be made on the securities once they have
been called. |
Hypothetical starting price: |
$100.00 |
Hypothetical threshold price: |
$90.00, which is 90% of the hypothetical starting price |
Participation rate: |
125% |
Buffer amount: |
10% |
* The hypothetical starting price of $100.00 for the underlying
has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual starting price of the underlying. The actual starting
price and threshold price are set forth under “Final Terms” above. For historical data regarding the actual fund closing prices
of the underlying, see the historical information set forth herein.
Automatic Call:
Example 1 — The securities are automatically called following
the call date.
Date |
Fund Closing Price |
Payment (per Security) |
Call date |
$125.00 (greater than or equal to the starting price) |
$1,149 |
In this example, on the call date, the fund closing price of the underlying
is greater than or equal to the starting price. Therefore, the securities are automatically called on the call settlement date.
Investors will receive a payment of $1,149 per security on the call settlement date. No further payments will be made on the securities
once they have been called, and investors do not participate in the appreciation in the underlying.

How to calculate the payment investors will receive at maturity:
In the following examples, the fund closing price of the underlying
is less than the starting price on the call date, and, consequently, the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity.
|
Fund Closing Price |
Maturity Payment Amount (per Security) |
Example 1 |
$110.00 (greater than the starting price) |
$1,000 + ($1,000 × fund return × participation rate) = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 10% × 125%) = $1,125 |
Example 2 |
$95.00 (less than the starting price but greater than or equal to the threshold price) |
$1,000 |
Example 3 |
$30.00 (less than the threshold price) |
$1,000 × [$1,000 × (fund return + buffer amount)] = $1,000 + [$1,000 × (-70% + 10%)]= $400 |
In example 1, the ending price of the underlying is greater
than the starting price. Therefore, investors receive at maturity the face amount plus a return reflecting 125% of the appreciation
of the underlying. Investors receive $1,125 per security at maturity.
In example 2, the ending price is less than the starting price
but greater than or equal to the threshold price. Therefore, investors receive a maturity payment amount equal to the face amount
of $1,000 per security, representing a 0% return over the 3-year term of the securities.
In example 3, the ending price of the underlying is less than
the threshold price. Therefore, investors are exposed to the negative performance of the underlying beyond 10% and will receive a maturity
payment amount that is less than the face amount of the securities. The maturity payment amount is $400 per security, representing a loss
of 60% on your investment over the 3-year term of the securities.
If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity
and the ending price of the underlying is less than the threshold price on the calculation day, you will be exposed to any decline in
the fund closing price of the underlying beyond 10%. You may lose up to 90% of the face amount of your securities at maturity.

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 for principal at risk securities, index supplement and prospectus. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax,
accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the securities.
Risks Relating to an Investment in the Securities
| ▪ | The securities do not pay interest or guarantee the return of the face amount of your securities
at maturity. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that they do not pay interest or guarantee
the return of the face amount of your securities at maturity. If the securities have not been automatically called and if the ending price
of the underlying is less than the threshold price, you will receive less, and up to 90% less, than the face amount of your securities
at maturity. |
| ▪ | If the securities are automatically called prior to maturity, the appreciation
potential of the securities is limited by the fixed call payment specified for the call date. If the fund closing price of the underlying
is greater than or equal to the starting price on the call date, the securities will be automatically called. In this scenario,
the appreciation potential of the securities is limited to the fixed call payment specified on the call date, and no further payments
will be made on the securities once they have been called. In addition, if the securities are automatically called prior to maturity,
you will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying, which could be significant. Moreover, the fixed call payment may be less
than the maturity payment amount you would receive for the same level of appreciation of the underlying had the securities not been automatically
called and instead remained outstanding until maturity. |
| ▪ | 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 price of the underlying on any day, including in relation to the starting price and threshold price, 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, |
| o | geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying or the securities
markets generally and which may affect the price of the underlying, |
| o | dividend rates on the underlying or the stocks composing the fund underlying index, |
| 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 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 face amount of $1,000 per security if the price of the underlying at the time of sale is near or below the
threshold price or if market interest rates rise.
You cannot predict the future performance of the underlying
based on its historical performance. If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and the ending price of the underlying
is less than the threshold price, you will be exposed to any decline in the fund closing price of the underlying in excess of 10%. See
“Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund 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 upon an automatic call or at maturity, and therefore you are subject to our credit risk. 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. |

Market Linked Securities — Auto-Callable with Leveraged Upside Participation and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027
| ▪ | 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. |
| ▪ | Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying or the stocks composing
the fund underlying index. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying, the fund underlying index
or the stocks that constitute the fund underlying index. Investors in the securities will not have voting rights or rights to receive
dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying or the stocks that constitute the fund underlying
index. |
| ▪ | Reinvestment risk. The term of your investment in the securities may be shortened due to the
automatic call feature of the securities. If the securities are automatically called prior to maturity, you will receive no further payments
on the securities 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 called at any point other than the specified call settlement date. |
| ▪ | The rate we are willing to pay for securities of this type, maturity and issuance size is likely
to be lower than the rate implied by our secondary market credit spreads and advantageous to us. Both the lower rate and the inclusion
of costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities in the face amount reduce the economic terms of the
securities, cause the estimated value of the securities to be less than the face amount and will adversely affect secondary market prices.
Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the prices, if any, at which dealers, including MS & Co., may
be willing to purchase the securities in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the face amount, because
secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the face amount
and borne by you and because the secondary market prices will reflect our secondary market credit spreads and the bid-offer spread that
any dealer would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type as well as other factors. |
The inclusion of the costs of issuing, selling, structuring
and hedging the securities in the face amount and the lower rate we are willing to pay as issuer make the economic terms of the securities
less favorable to you than they otherwise would be.
However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling,
structuring and hedging the securities are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 4 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, and to our secondary market credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the estimated
value, and we expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements.
| ▪ | The estimated value of the securities is determined by reference to our pricing and valuation models,
which may differ from those of other dealers and is not a maximum or minimum secondary market price. These pricing and valuation
models are proprietary and rely in part on subjective views of certain market inputs and certain assumptions about future events, which
may prove to be incorrect. As a result, because there is no market-standard way to value these types of securities, our models may yield
a higher estimated value of the securities than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to
value the securities. In addition, the estimated value on the pricing date does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which dealers,
including MS & Co., would be willing to purchase your securities in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of
your securities at any time after the date of this document will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including
our creditworthiness and changes in market conditions. See also “The market price will be influenced by many unpredictable factors”
above. |
| ▪ | The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited.
The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities.
MS & Co. and WFS may, but are not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if either of them once chooses to make a market,
may cease doing so at any time. When they do make a market, they will generally do so for transactions of routine secondary market size
at prices based on their respective estimates of the current value of the securities, taking into account their respective bid/offer spreads,
our credit spreads, market volatility, the notional size of the proposed sale, the cost of unwinding any related hedging positions, the
time remaining to maturity and the likelihood that they will be able to resell the securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it
may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Since other broker-dealers may not participate significantly
in the secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price,
if any, at which MS & Co. or WFS is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS & Co. and |
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC
Market Linked Securities — Auto-Callable with Leveraged Upside Participation and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027
WFS were to cease making a market in the securities, it
is likely that there would be no secondary market for the securities. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities to maturity.
| ▪ | The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make
determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MS & Co. will determine the starting price, the threshold
price, the ending price, whether the securities will be called on the call settlement date and will calculate the amount of cash you receive
at maturity if the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity. Moreover, certain determinations made by MS & Co., in
its capacity as calculation agent, may require it to exercise discretion and make subjective judgments, such as with respect to the occurrence
or non-occurrence of market disruption events and the selection of a successor index or calculation of the ending price in the event of
a market disruption event or certain adjustments to the adjustment factor. These potentially subjective determinations may adversely affect
the payout to you at maturity. For further information regarding these types of determinations, see “General Terms of the Securities—Market
Disruption Events,” “—Anti-dilution Adjustments Relating to a Fund; Alternate Calculation,” “—Consequences
of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Calculation Day” and “Alternate Exchange Calculation in Case of an Event of
Default” in the accompanying product supplement for principal at risk securities. In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated
value of the securities on the pricing date. |
| ▪ | Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates could potentially adversely 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 possibly to other instruments linked to the underlying or the fund underlying index), including trading in the underlying and in
other instruments related to the underlying or fund underlying index. 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 calculation day approaches. Some of our affiliates also trade the underlying or the stocks that constitute the fund underlying
index and other financial instruments related to the fund underlying index and other financial instruments related to the underlying on
a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to
the pricing date could potentially affect the starting price, and, therefore, could increase (i) the price at or above which the underlying
must close on the call date so that the securities are automatically called for the call payment and (ii) the threshold price for the
underlying, which is the price at or above which the underlying must close on the calculation day so that you do not suffer a loss on
your initial investment in the securities. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially
affect the price of the underlying on the call date, and, accordingly, whether we call the securities prior to maturity and the amount
of cash you will receive at maturity. |
| ▪ | The maturity date may be postponed if the calculation day is postponed. If the scheduled calculation
day is not a trading day or if a market disruption event occurs on that day so that the calculation day is postponed and falls less than
two business days prior to the maturity date, the maturity date of the securities will be postponed to the second business day following
that calculation day as postponed. |
| ▪ | Potentially inconsistent research, opinions or recommendations by Morgan Stanley, MSFL, WFS or our
or their respective affiliates. Morgan Stanley, MSFL, WFS and our or their respective affiliates may publish research from time to
time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the securities, or express opinions or provide recommendations
that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the securities. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by Morgan Stanley,
MSFL, WFS or our or their respective affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice.
Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the securities and the underlying to which the
securities are linked. |
| ▪ | The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain. Please
read the discussion under “Additional Information About the Securities—Tax considerations” in this document and the
discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for principal at risk securities
(together, the “Tax Disclosure Sections”) concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities.
As discussed in the Tax Disclosure Sections, there is a risk that the “constructive ownership” rule could apply, in which
case all or a portion of any long-term capital gain recognized by a U.S. Holder could be recharacterized as ordinary income and an interest
charge could be imposed. In addition, there is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities,
and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Consequently, significant aspects of
the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the tax treatment of a security as a single
financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were successful in asserting
an alternative treatment of the securities, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the securities, including the timing
and character of income recognized by U.S. Holders and the withholding tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders, might be materially and adversely
affected. Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax treatment of
the securities, possibly retroactively. |

Market Linked Securities — Auto-Callable with Leveraged Upside Participation and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside
Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund due August 4, 2027
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 any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
Risks Relating to the Underlying
| ▪ | Investing in the securities exposes investors to risks associated with investments with a concentration
in the energy sector. The stocks included in the Energy Select Sector Index and that are generally tracked by the Fund are stocks
of companies whose primary business is directly associated with the energy sector, including the following sub-sectors: (i) oil, gas and
consumable fuels and (ii) energy equipment and services. Because the value of the securities is linked to the performance of the Fund,
an investment in the securities exposes investors to risks associated with investments in securities with a concentration in the energy
sector. |
Energy companies develop and produce crude oil and natural
gas and/or provide drilling and other energy resources production and distribution related services. Stock prices for these types of companies
are mainly affected by the business, financial and operating condition of the particular company, as well as changes in prices for oil,
gas and other types of fuels, which in turn largely depend on supply and demand for various energy products and services. Some of the
factors that may influence supply and demand for energy products and services include: general economic conditions and growth rates, weather
conditions, the cost of exploring for, producing and delivering oil and gas, technological advances affecting energy efficiency and energy
consumption, the ability of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to set and maintain production levels of oil,
currency fluctuations, inflation, natural disasters, civil unrest, acts of sabotage or terrorism and other regional or global events.
The profitability of energy companies may also be adversely affected by existing and future laws, regulations, government actions and
other legal requirements relating to protection of the environment, health and safety matters and others that may increase the costs of
conducting their business or may reduce or delay available business opportunities. Increased supply or weak demand for energy products
and services, as well as various developments leading to higher costs of doing business or missed business opportunities, would adversely
impact the performance of companies in the energy sector. The value of the securities may be subject to greater volatility and be more
adversely affected by a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting the energy sector or one of the sub-sectors of the
energy sector than a different investment linked to securities of a more broadly diversified group of issuers.
| ▪ | The performance and market price of the underlying, particularly during periods of market volatility,
may not correlate with the performance of the fund underlying index, the performance of the component securities of the fund underlying
or the net asset value per share of the underlying. The underlying does not fully replicate the fund underlying index and may hold
securities that are different than those included in the fund underlying index. In addition, the performance of the underlying will reflect
additional transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of the fund underlying index. All of these factors may
lead to a lack of correlation between the performance of the underlying and the fund underlying index. In addition, corporate actions
(such as mergers and spin-offs) with respect to the equity securities constituting the underlying may impact the variance between the
performance of the underlying and the fund underlying index. Finally, because the shares of the underlying are traded on an exchange and
are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market price of one share of the underlying may differ from the net asset value
per share of the underlying. |
In particular, during periods of market volatility, or
unusual trading activity, trading in the securities constituting the underlying may be disrupted or limited, or such securities may be
unavailable in the secondary market. Under these circumstances, the liquidity of the underlying may be adversely affected, market participants
may be unable to calculate accurately the net asset value per share of the underlying, and their ability to create and redeem shares of
the underlying may be disrupted. Under these circumstances, the market price of shares of the underlying may vary substantially from the
net asset value per share of the underlying or the level of the fund underlying index.
For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the
underlying may not correlate with the performance of the fund underlying index, the performance of the component securities of the fund
underlying index or the net asset value per share of the underlying. Any of these events could materially and adversely affect the price
of the shares of the underlying and, therefore, the value of the securities. Additionally, if market volatility or these events were to
occur on the calculation day, the calculation agent would maintain discretion to determine whether such market volatility or events have
caused a market disruption event to occur, and such determination may affect the maturity payment amount of the securities. If the calculation
agent determines that no market disruption event has taken place, the maturity payment payment would be based on the published closing
price per share of the underlying on the calculation day, even if the underlying’s shares are underperforming the fund underlying
index or the component securities of the fund underlying index and/or trading below the net asset value per share of the underlying.
| ▪ | Adjustments to the underlying or the fund underlying index could adversely affect the value of the
securities. The fund sponsor to the underlying, SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (the “Fund Sponsor”), seeks investment results
that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Energy Select Sector Index. Pursuant to
its investment strategy or otherwise, the Fund Sponsor may add, delete or substitute the stocks composing the Energy Select Sector |

SPDR® Fund. Any of these actions could adversely
affect the price of the underlying and, consequently, the value of the securities. S&P® Dow Jones Indices LLC (“S&P®”)
is responsible for calculating and maintaining the Energy Select Sector Index. S&P® may add, delete or substitute the
stocks constituting the Energy Select Sector Index or make other methodological changes that could change the value of the Energy Select
Sector Index. S&P® may discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of the Energy Select Sector Index at any time.
In these circumstances, the calculation agent will have the sole discretion to substitute a successor index that is comparable to the
discontinued Energy Select Sector Index and is permitted to consider indices that are calculated and published by the calculation agent
or any of its affiliates. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of the Energy Select Sector Index, and, consequently,
the price of the underlying and the value of the securities.
| ▪ | The antidilution adjustments the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every event that
could affect the shares of the underlying. MS & Co., as calculation agent, will adjust the adjustment factor for certain events
affecting the underlying. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment for every event that could affect the underlying.
If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to adjust the adjustment factor, the market price of the securities may
be materially and adversely affected. The determination by the calculation agent to adjust, or not to adjust, the adjustment factor may
materially and adversely affect the value of the securities. |
| ▪ | Historical prices of the underlying should not be taken as an indication of the future performance
of the underlying during the term of the securities. No assurance can be given as to the price of the underlying at any time, including
on the calculation day, because historical prices of the underlying do not provide an indication of future performance of the underlying. |

Fund Overview |
The Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund is an exchange-traded
fund managed by Select Sector SPDR® Trust (the “Trust”), a registered investment company. The Trust consists
of numerous separate investment portfolios, including the Energy Select Sector SPDR® Fund. The Energy Select Sector SPDR®
Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Energy Select
Sector Index. It is possible that this fund may not fully replicate the performance of the Energy Select Sector Index due to the temporary
unavailability of certain securities in the secondary market or due to other extraordinary circumstances. Information provided to or filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) by the Trust pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Investment Company Act of 1940 can be located by reference to Commission file numbers 333-57791 and 811-08837, respectively, through the
Commission’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, information may be obtained from other publicly available sources. Neither
the issuer nor the agent makes any representation that any such publicly available information regarding the Energy Select Sector SPDR®
Fund is accurate or complete.
The following graph sets forth the daily closing prices of the underlying
for the period from January 1, 2019 through July 30, 2024. The closing price of the underlying on July 30, 2024 was $92.82. We obtained
the information in the graph below from Bloomberg Financial Markets without independent verification. You should not take the historical
prices of the underlying as an indication of its future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the closing price of the underlying
at any time, including on the call date or the calculation day.

Tax considerations
Although there is uncertainty
regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities due to the lack of governing authority, in the opinion
of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, under current law, and based on current market conditions, it is reasonable to treat a
security as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Assuming this treatment of
the securities is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product
supplement for principal at risk securities, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result based on current law:
| ▪ | A U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize taxable income over the term of the securities prior
to settlement, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange. |
| ▪ | Upon sale, exchange or settlement of the securities, a U.S. Holder should recognize gain or loss equal
to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the securities. Subject to the discussion below
concerning the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule, such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain
or loss if the investor has held the securities for more than one year, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise. |
Because the securities
are linked to shares of an exchange-traded fund, although the matter is not clear, there is a risk that an investment in the securities
will be treated as a “constructive ownership transaction” under Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”). If this treatment applies, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain of the U.S. Holder in respect of the
securities could be recharacterized as ordinary income (in which case an interest charge will be imposed). As a result of certain features
of the securities, including the leveraged upside payment, it is unclear how to calculate the amount of gain that would be recharacterized
if an investment in the securities were treated as a constructive ownership transaction. Due to the lack of governing authority, our counsel
is unable to opine as to whether or how Section 1260 of the Code applies to the securities. U.S. investors should read the section entitled
“United States Federal Taxation—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Possible Application of Section 1260 of the Code”
in the accompanying product supplement for principal at risk securities for additional information and consult their tax advisers regarding
the potential application of the “constructive ownership” rule.
We do not plan
to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the treatment of the securities. An alternative
characterization of the securities could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the securities,
including the timing and character of income recognized. In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have requested comments
on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar financial instruments
and have indicated that such transactions may be the subject of future regulations or other guidance. Furthermore, members of Congress
have proposed legislative changes to the tax treatment of derivative contracts. Any legislation, 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.
As discussed in
the accompanying product supplement for principal at risk securities, Section 871(m) of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% (or a lower applicable treaty rate) withholding tax on dividend equivalents
paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that include
U.S. equities (each, an “Underlying Security”). Subject to certain exceptions, Section 871(m) generally applies to securities
that substantially replicate the economic performance of one or more Underlying Securities, as determined based on tests set forth in
the applicable Treasury regulations (a “Specified Security”). However, pursuant to an IRS notice, Section 871(m) will not
apply to securities issued before January 1, 2027 that do not have a delta of one with respect to any Underlying Security. Based on our
determination that the securities do not have a delta of one with respect to any Underlying Security, our counsel is of the opinion that
the securities should not be Specified Securities and, therefore, should not be subject to Section 871(m).
Our determination
is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend
on your particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. If withholding
is required, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to the amounts so withheld. You should consult your tax
adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the securities.
Both U.S. and
non-U.S. investors considering an investment in the securities should read the discussion under “Risk Factors” in this document
and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for principal at risk securities
and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including
possible alternative treatments, the potential application of the constructive ownership rule, and any tax consequences arising under
the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
The discussion in the preceding paragraphs under “Tax considerations”
and the discussion contained in the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement
for principal at risk securities,

insofar as they purport to describe provisions of U.S. federal
income tax laws or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the

Validity of the securities
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special counsel
to MSFL and Morgan Stanley, when the securities offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and issued by MSFL, authenticated
by the trustee pursuant to the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) and delivered against payment as
contemplated herein, such securities will be valid and binding obligations of MSFL and the related guarantee will be a valid and binding
obligation of Morgan Stanley, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including,
without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided that such counsel expresses no opinion
as to (i) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed
above and (ii) any provision of the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture that purports to avoid the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent
transfer or similar provision of applicable law by limiting the amount of Morgan Stanley’s obligation under the related guarantee.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the trustee’s
authorization, execution and delivery of the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture and its authentication of the securities and the validity, binding
nature and enforceability of the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture with respect to the trustee, all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated
February 26, 2024, which is Exhibit 5-a to Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed by Morgan Stanley
