By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Aug. 23 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $5.39 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Feb. 24, 2017 linked to Freeport-McMoRan Inc. shares, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 17.25% if Freeport-McMoRan shares close at or above their downside threshold, 60% of their initial level, on the determination date for that month.

The notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon if Freeport-McMoRan shares close above the initial level on any of the first five determination dates.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon, unless Freeport-McMoRan shares finish below the 60% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
