RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Notes entails significant risks not associated with similar investments in a conventional debt security that bears interest at a fixed rate, including, but not limited to, events that are difficult to predict and beyond our control. Accordingly, prospective investors should consult their financial and legal advisors as to the risks entailed by an investment in the Notes and the suitability of the Notes in light of their particular circumstances.

Early Redemption Risk. The Issuer retains the option to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, quarterly on each January 28, April 28, July 28 and October 28, beginning on October 28, 2016.  It is more likely that the Issuer will redeem the Notes in whole prior to their Maturity Date to the extent that the interest payable on the Notes is greater than the interest that would be payable on other instruments of the Issuer of comparable maturity, terms and credit rating trading in the market.  If the Notes are redeemed, in whole or in part, prior to their Maturity Date, you will receive no further interest payments from the Notes redeemed and may have to reinvest the proceeds in a lower rate environment.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION

This discussion applies only to initial investors in the Notes who purchase the Notes at the “issue price,” which will equal the first price at which a substantial amount of the Notes is sold to the public (not including bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers).  Based on the operation of Treasury regulations that address the treatment of an issuer’s option to redeem a debt instrument, the Notes will not be treated as issued with “original issue discount” and stated interest on the Notes will generally be taxable to you if you are a U.S. Holder (as defined in the prospectus supplement) as you receive it or accrue it in accordance with your normal method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  For other U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of the Notes, please see the section of the prospectus supplement titled “United States Federal Income Taxation.”

USE OF PROCEEDS AND HEDGING

The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used as described under “Use of Proceeds” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

To provide a hedge to TMCC, an affiliate of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC will enter into a swap agreement with TMCC. Under the swap agreement, TMCC will make floating rate payments linked to the London interbank offered rate in respect of a notional principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes during the term of the Notes in exchange for receiving payments equal to interest due in respect of the Notes from the affiliate of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC.
