New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $5.92 million contingent income autocallables on Goldman, Wells

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, July 2 - Morgan Stanley priced $5,915,250 of contingent income autocallable securities due July 5, 2016 linked to the worst performing of the common stocks of Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Wells Fargo & Co., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If both Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo shares close at or above their downside threshold levels - 70% of the respective initial share prices - on a quarterly determination date, investors will receive a contingent payment of $0.28375 for each $10.00 note. Otherwise, no contingent payment will be made for that period.

If the closing share price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to its initial share price on any quarterly determination date, the notes will be automatically redeemed at par plus the contingent payment.

If the notes are not called and the final share price of each underlying stock is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent payment. If the final price of either stock is less than the downside threshold level, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst -performing stock.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
