Morgan Stanley issues €5 billion of callable euro senior notes to institutional investors.

Morgan Stanley is raising €5,000,000,000 through three senior unsecured euro notes with staggered maturities in 2029, 2032 and 2037. All are issued at 100.000% of principal, with minimum denominations of €100,000, positioning them squarely for institutional markets rather than retail buyers.

The 2029 tranche is a pure floating-rate note at three-month EURIBOR plus 0.700%, while the 2032 and 2037 tranches combine initial fixed coupons of 3.383% and 3.981% per annum with later floating-rate periods at EURIBOR plus 0.911% and 1.143%, respectively. All three instruments are structured as variable rate debt for U.S. federal tax purposes, with detailed rules on qualified stated interest and potential original issue discount.

The notes feature multiple issuer call options. The 2032 and 2037 tranches have make-whole call rights from July 27, 2026, and par calls near the fixed-to-floating step dates and thereafter, while the 2029 notes can be redeemed at par plus accrued interest from October 5, 2028 or on or after September 5, 2029. These features give Morgan Stanley flexibility to refinance if market funding costs fall, while investors bear early redemption and reinvestment risk. Underwriting commissions range from 0.250% to 0.450% of principal, and admission to the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market is being sought, supporting secondary market liquidity.

We have the option to redeem the floating rate notes due 2029, (i) in whole but not in part, on October 5, 2028 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after September 5, 2029, on at least 3 business days’ but not more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice.  In addition to the optional make-whole redemption discussed above under “Fixed/Floating Rate Notes Due 2032—Other Provisions,” we have the option to redeem the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032, (i) in whole but not in part, on January 23, 2031 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after October 23, 2031, on at least 3 business days’ but not more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice.  In addition to the optional make-whole redemption discussed above under “Fixed/Floating Rate Notes Due 2037—Other Provisions,” we have the option to redeem the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037, (i) in whole but not in part, on January 23, 2036 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after October 23, 2036, on at least 3 business days’ but not more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice.  It is more likely that we will redeem the floating rate notes due 2029, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 or the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 prior to the respective stated maturity date to the extent that the interest payable on such notes is greater than the interest that would be payable on other instruments of ours of a comparable maturity, of comparable terms and of a comparable credit rating trading in the market.  If the notes are redeemed prior to the respective stated maturity date, you may have to re-invest the proceeds in a lower interest rate environment.

Optional Redemption

We may, at our option, redeem the floating rate notes due 2029, (i) in whole but not in part, on October 5, 2028 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after September 5, 2029, on at least 3 business days’ but not more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the floating rate notes due 2029 to but excluding the redemption date. If fewer than all of the floating rate notes due 2029 are to be redeemed, the trustee will select, not more than 60 calendar days prior to the redemption date, the particular floating rate notes due 2029 or portions thereof for redemption from the outstanding floating rate notes due 2029 not previously called for redemption in accordance with its procedures at the time of selection; provided, that if the floating rate notes due 2029 are represented by one or more global securities, beneficial interests in such floating rate notes due 2029 will be selected for redemption by the applicable depositary in accordance with its standard procedures therefor.

In addition to the optional make-whole redemption discussed above under “Fixed/Floating Rate Notes Due 2032—Other Provisions,” we may, at our option, redeem the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032, (i) in whole but not in part, on January 23, 2031 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after October 23, 2031, on at least 3 business days’ but not more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 to but excluding the redemption date. If fewer than all of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 are to be redeemed, the trustee will select, not more than 60 calendar days prior to the redemption date, the particular fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 or portions thereof for redemption from the outstanding fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 not previously called for redemption in accordance with its procedures at the time of selection; provided, that if the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 are represented by one or more global securities, beneficial interests in such fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 will be selected for redemption by the applicable depositary in accordance with its standard procedures therefor.

PS-8

In addition to the optional make-whole redemption discussed above under “Fixed/Floating Rate Notes Due 2037—Other Provisions,” we may, at our option, redeem the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037, (i) in whole but not in part, on January 23, 2036 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after October 23, 2036, on at least 3 business days’ but not more than 60 calendar  days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 to but excluding the redemption date. If fewer than all of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 are to be redeemed, the trustee will select, not more than 60 calendar days prior to the redemption date, the particular fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 or portions thereof for redemption from the outstanding fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 not previously called for redemption in accordance with its procedures at the time of selection; provided, that if the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 are represented by one or more global securities, beneficial interests in such fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 will be selected for redemption by the applicable depositary in accordance with its standard procedures therefor.

 On or before the respective redemption date, we will deposit with the trustee money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the notes to be redeemed on that date.  If such money is so deposited, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on such notes (unless we default in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest) and such notes will cease to be outstanding.

For information regarding notices of redemption, see “Description of Debt Securities—Redemption and Repurchase of Debt Securities—Notice of Redemption” in the accompanying prospectus.

The notes do not contain any provisions affording the holders the right to require us to purchase the notes after the occurrence of any change in control event affecting us.

United States Federal Taxation

Tax Considerations for the floating rate notes due 2029

In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the floating rate notes due 2029 should be treated as “variable rate debt instruments” denominated in a currency (the “denomination currency”) other than the U.S. dollar for U.S. federal tax purposes, and will therefore be subject to special rules under Section 988 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations thereunder.  See the discussions in the sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Foreign Currency Notes” and “― Floating Rate Notes—General” for further information about the treatment of the floating rate notes due 2029.

Tax Considerations for the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032

In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 should be treated as “variable rate debt instruments” denominated in a currency (the “denomination currency”) other than the U.S. dollar for U.S. federal tax purposes, and should therefore be subject to special rules under Section 988 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. See the discussion in the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Foreign Currency Notes” for further information about the treatment of the notes. Although there is uncertainty regarding their treatment (and subject to the discussion below regarding deemed exercise of our optional redemption right), the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 should be treated as providing for a single fixed rate followed by a single qualified floating rate (“QFR”), as described in the sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Floating Rate Notes―General” and “―Floating Rate Notes that Provide for Multiple Rates.” Under this treatment, in order to determine the amount of qualified stated interest (“QSI”) and original issue discount (“OID”) in respect of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032, an equivalent fixed rate debt instrument (denominated in euro) must be constructed for the entire term of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032. The equivalent fixed rate debt instrument is constructed in the following manner: (i) first, the initial fixed rate is converted to a QFR that would preserve the fair market value of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032, and (ii) second, each QFR (including the QFR determined under (i) above) is converted to a fixed rate substitute (which should generally be the value of that QFR as of the issue date of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032). Under Treasury Regulations applicable to certain options arising under the terms of a debt instrument, in determining the amount of QSI and OID, we should be deemed to exercise our optional redemption right if doing so would reduce the yield on the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument. For the purpose of determining QSI and OID, the optional make-whole redemption should not be deemed to be exercised. However, if, as of the issue date, redeeming the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 on January 23, 2031 would reduce the yield of the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 should be treated as fixed rate debt instruments maturing on January 23, 2031 (the “instrument maturing January 2031”). Under those circumstances, if the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 are not actually redeemed by us on January 23, 2031, solely for purposes of the OID rules, they should be deemed retired and reissued for their principal amount, and should thereafter be treated as floating rate debt instruments with a term of one year (the “1-year instrument”). The instrument maturing January 2031 would be treated as issued without OID, and all payments of interest thereon would be treated as QSI. Interest on the 1-year instrument should generally be taken into account when received or accrued, according to your method of tax accounting, but it is possible that the 1-year instrument could be subject to the rules described under “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders―Short-Term Notes” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

If, as of the issue date, redeeming the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 on January 23, 2031 would not reduce the yield on the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, the rules under “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Discount Notes―General” should be applied to the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument to determine the amounts of QSI and OID on the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032. Under those circumstances, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2032 may be issued with OID.

A U.S. holder is required to include any QSI in income in accordance with the U.S. holder’s regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. holders will be required to include any OID in income for U.S. federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant yield method based on a compounding of interest.  All amounts will be determined in the denomination currency and then translated into U.S. dollars according to the rules described in the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Foreign Currency Notes.” QSI allocable to an accrual period must be increased (or decreased) by the amount, if any, which the interest

actually accrued or paid during an accrual period (including the fixed rate payments made during the initial period) exceeds (or is less than) the interest assumed to be accrued or paid during the accrual period under the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument.

Tax Considerations for the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037

In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 should be treated as “variable rate debt instruments” denominated in a currency (the “denomination currency”) other than the U.S. dollar for U.S. federal tax purposes, and should therefore be subject to special rules under Section 988 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. See the discussion in the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Foreign Currency Notes” for further information about the treatment of the notes. Although there is uncertainty regarding their treatment (and subject to the discussion below regarding deemed exercise of our optional redemption right), the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 should be treated as providing for a single fixed rate followed by a single qualified floating rate (“QFR”), as described in the sections of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Floating Rate Notes―General” and “―Floating Rate Notes that Provide for Multiple Rates.” Under this treatment, in order to determine the amount of qualified stated interest (“QSI”) and original issue discount (“OID”) in respect of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037, an equivalent fixed rate debt instrument (denominated in euro) must be constructed for the entire term of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037. The equivalent fixed rate debt instrument is constructed in the following manner: (i) first, the initial fixed rate is converted to a QFR that would preserve the fair market value of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037, and (ii) second, each QFR (including the QFR determined under (i) above) is converted to a fixed rate substitute (which should generally be the value of that QFR as of the issue date of the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037). Under Treasury Regulations applicable to certain options arising under the terms of a debt instrument, in determining the amount of QSI and OID, we should be deemed to exercise our optional redemption right if doing so would reduce the yield on the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument. For the purpose of determining QSI and OID, the optional make-whole redemption should not be deemed to be exercised. However, if, as of the issue date, redeeming the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 on January 23, 2036 would reduce the yield of the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 should be treated as fixed rate debt instruments maturing on January 23, 2036 (the “instrument maturing January 2036”). Under those circumstances, if the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 are not actually redeemed by us on January 23, 2036, solely for purposes of the OID rules, they should be deemed retired and reissued for their principal amount, and should thereafter be treated as floating rate debt instruments with a term of one year (the “1-year instrument”). The instrument maturing January 2036 would be treated as issued without OID, and all payments of interest thereon would be treated as QSI. Interest on the 1-year instrument should generally be taken into account when received or accrued, according to your method of tax accounting, but it is possible that the 1-year instrument could be subject to the rules described under “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders―Short-Term Notes” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

If, as of the issue date, redeeming the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 on January 23, 2036 would not reduce the yield on the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, the rules under “United States Federal Taxation―Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders― Discount Notes―General” should be applied to the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument to determine the amounts of QSI and OID on the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037. Under those circumstances, the fixed/floating rate notes due 2037 may be issued with OID.

A U.S. holder is required to include any QSI in income in accordance with the U.S. holder’s regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. holders will be required to include any OID in income for U.S. federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant yield method based on a compounding of interest.  All amounts will be determined in the denomination currency and then translated into U.S. dollars according to the rules described in the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States Federal Taxation—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Foreign Currency Notes.” QSI allocable to an accrual period must be increased (or decreased) by the amount, if any, which the interest actually accrued or paid during an accrual period (including the fixed rate payments made during the initial period) exceeds (or is less than) the interest assumed to be accrued or paid during the accrual period under the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument.

Both U.S. and non-U.S. holders of the notes should read the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement entitled “United States Federal Taxation.”

You should consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

The discussion in the preceding paragraphs under “United States Federal Taxation,” and the discussion contained in the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus supplement, insofar as they purport to describe provisions of U.S. federal income tax laws or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes.
