New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $2.2 million 7.5% autocallable RevCons linked to three stocks

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., May 14 - Morgan Stanley priced $2.2 million of 7.5% autocallable reverse convertible notes due Aug. 19, 2015 linked to the worst performing of three common stocks, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The stocks are Apple Inc., Coca-Cola Co. and Facebook, Inc.

Interest is payable quarterly.

The notes will be automatically called at par if the closing price of each stock is greater than or equal to its redemption threshold level, 98% of the initial share price, on any quarterly determination date other than the final date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any stock finishes below its downside threshold level, 65% of the initial share price, in which case investors will receive a number of shares of the worst-performing stock equal to $1,000 divided by that stock's initial share price or, at the issuer's option, the cash value of those shares.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management as dealer.
