New York, July 30 - Morgan Stanley priced $656,000 of contingent income securities due July 31, 2015 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes pay a contingent monthly payment of 8% per year, or $6.6667 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, if the index closes at or above the downside threshold level on the determination date for that month. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that month. The downside threshold level is 60% of the initial index level.
If the final index level is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent monthly payment. If the final index level is less than the downside threshold level, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the index from the initial level.
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
