Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley

Principal at Risk Securities

The securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The securities will pay no interest, do not guarantee the repayment of any principal at maturity and have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document. The securities will be automatically redeemed if the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) on any of the annual determination dates is greater than or equal to the initial share price, for an early redemption payment that will increase over the term of the securities and that will correspond to a return of approximately 33% per annum. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final share price is greater than or equal to the initial share price, investors will receive a fixed positive return that will also correspond to a return of approximately 33% per annum, as set forth below. If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the initial share price but greater than or equal to 55% of the initial share price, which we refer to as the downside threshold level, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment. However, if the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, investors will be exposed to the decline in the underlying stock from the initial share price on a 1-to-1 basis and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 55% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment. The securities are for investors who are willing to risk their principal and forego current income and participation in the appreciation of the underlying stock in exchange for the possibility of receiving an early redemption payment or payment at maturity greater than the stated principal amount if the underlying stock closes at or above the initial share price on an annual determination date and the limited protection against loss that applies only if the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level. Investors will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stock. The securities are issued as part of MSFL’s Series A Global Medium-Term Notes program.

All payments are subject to our credit risk. If we default on our obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment. These securities are not secured obligations and you will not have any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets.

Investment Summary

Auto-Callable Securities

Principal at Risk Securities

Auto-Callable Securities Based on the Performance of the Common Stock of Tesla, Inc. due December 14, 2027 (the “securities”) do not provide for the regular payment of interest and do not guarantee any repayment of the stated principal amount at maturity. Instead, the securities will be automatically redeemed if the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) on any of the determination dates is greater than or equal to the initial share price, for an early redemption payment that will increase over the term of the securities and that will correspond to a return of approximately 33% per annum, as described below. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final share price is greater than or equal to the initial share price, investors will receive a fixed positive return that will also correspond to a return of approximately 33% per annum, as set forth below. If the final share price is less than the initial share price but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, which is 55% of the initial share price, investors will receive the stated principal of $1,000. However, if the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, investors will be exposed on a 1-to-1 basis to the full decline in the underlying stock from the initial share price and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 55% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment. Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the underlying stock.


Maturity:	Approximately 3 years
Automatic early redemption annually:	If, on any of the annual determination dates, the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) is greater than or equal to the initial share price, the securities will be automatically redeemed for the relevant early redemption payment on the relevant early redemption date.
Early redemption payment:	The early redemption payment will be an amount in cash per stated principal amount (corresponding to a return of approximately 33% per annum) for each annual determination date, as follows: ●1st determination date: $1,330 ●2nd determination date: $1,660 No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
Payment at maturity:	If the securities have not previously been redeemed, you will receive at maturity a cash payment per security as follows: ●If the final share price is greater than or equal to the initial share price: $1,990 ●If the final share price is less than the initial share price but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level: $1,000 ●If the final share price is less than the downside threshold level: $1,000 x share performance factor If the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, investors will be fully exposed to the negative performance of the underlying stock and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 55% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment.

Principal at Risk Securities

The original issue price of each security is $1,000. This price includes costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date is less than $1,000. We estimate that the value of each security on the pricing date is $962.80.

What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?

In valuing the securities on the pricing date, we take into account that the securities comprise both a debt component and a performance-based component linked to the underlying stock. The estimated value of the securities is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the underlying stock, instruments based on the underlying stock, volatility and other factors including current and expected interest rates, as well as an interest rate related to our secondary market credit spread, which is the implied interest rate at which our conventional fixed rate debt trades in the secondary market.

What determines the economic terms of the securities?

In determining the economic terms of the securities, including the early redemption payment amounts and the downside threshold level, we use an internal funding rate, which is likely to be lower than our secondary market credit spreads and therefore advantageous to us. If the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by you were lower or if the internal funding rate were higher, one or more of the economic terms of the securities would be more favorable to you.

What is the relationship between the estimated value on the pricing date and the secondary market price of the securities?

The price at which MS & Co. purchases the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying stock, may vary from, and be lower than, the estimated value on the pricing date, because the secondary market price takes into account our secondary market credit spread as well as the bid-offer spread that MS & Co. would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type and other factors. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying stock, and to our secondary market credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the estimated value. We expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements.

MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time.

Key Investment Rationale

The securities do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption amount corresponding to a return of approximately 33% per annum if the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) on any of the annual determination dates is greater than or equal to the initial share price.

The following scenarios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how an automatic early redemption payment or the payment at maturity (if the securities have not previously been redeemed) are calculated, and do not attempt to demonstrate every situation that may occur. Accordingly, the securities may or may not be redeemed prior to maturity and the payment at maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of the securities and may be zero.


Scenario 1: The securities are redeemed prior to maturity	When the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) is greater than or equal to the initial share price on one of the annual determination dates, the securities will be automatically redeemed for the relevant early redemption payment on the relevant early redemption date, corresponding to a return of approximately 33% per annum. Investors do not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stock.
Scenario 2: The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive a positive return at maturity	This scenario assumes that the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) is below the initial share price on each of the annual determination dates. Consequently, the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the final share price is at or above the initial share price. At maturity, investors will receive a cash payment equal to $1,990 per stated principal amount, corresponding to a return of approximately 33% per annum. Investors do not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stock.
Scenario 3: The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive the stated principal amount at maturity	This scenario assumes that the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) is below the initial share price on each of the annual determination dates. Consequently, the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the underlying stock is below the initial share price but at or above the downside threshold level of 55% of the initial share price. At maturity, investors will receive a cash payment equal to the stated principal amount of $1,000.
Scenario 4: The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors suffer a substantial loss of principal at maturity	This scenario assumes that the closing price of the underlying stock (multiplied by the then-current adjustment factor) is below the initial share price on each of the annual determination dates. Consequently, the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the final share price is below the downside threshold level. At maturity, investors will receive an amount equal to the stated principal amount multiplied by the share performance factor. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be significantly less than the stated principal amount and could be zero.

Hypothetical Examples

The following hypothetical examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether the securities are redeemed prior to maturity will be determined by reference to the closing price of the underlying stock on each of the annual determination dates, and the payment at maturity (if the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity) will be determined by reference to the final share price on the final determination date. The actual initial share price and downside threshold level are set forth on the cover of this document. Some numbers appearing in the examples below may have been rounded for ease of analysis. All payments on the securities are subject to our credit risk. The below examples assume that there are no adjustments to the adjustment factor and are based on the following terms:


Hypothetical Initial Share Price:	$300.00
Hypothetical Downside Threshold Level:	$165.00, which is 55% of the hypothetical initial share price
Early Redemption Payment:	The early redemption payment will be an amount in cash per stated principal amount corresponding to a return of approximately 33% per annum for each annual determination date, as follows: ●1st determination date: $1,330 ●2nd determination date: $1,660 No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
Payment at Maturity:	If the securities have not previously been redeemed, you will receive at maturity a cash payment per security as follows: ●If the final share price is greater than or equal to the initial share price: $1,990 ●If the final share price is less than the initial share price but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level: $1,000 ●If the final share price is less than the downside threshold level: $1,000 x share performance factor Under these circumstances, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment.
Stated Principal Amount:	$1,000

Automatic Call:

Example 1 — The securities are redeemed following the second determination date.


Date	Closing Price	Payment (per Security)
1st Determination Date	$120.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)	--
2nd Determination Date	$350.00 (at or above the initial share price, securities are automatically redeemed)	$1,660

In this example, the closing price of the underlying stock on the first annual determination date is below the initial share price, and the closing price of the underlying stock on the second annual determination date is at or above the initial share price. Therefore, the securities are automatically redeemed on the second early redemption date. Investors will receive $1,660 per security on the related early redemption date, corresponding to an annual return of approximately 33%. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed, and investors do not participate in the appreciation of the underlying stock.

Payment at Maturity

In the following examples, the closing price of the underlying stock on each of the annual determination dates is less than the initial share price, and, consequently, the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to, and remain outstanding until, maturity.

Example 1 — The final share price is at or above the initial share price.


Date	Closing Price	Payment (per Security)
1st Determination Date	$150.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)	--
2nd Determination Date	$110.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)	--
Final Determination Date	$510.00 (at or above the initial share price)	$1,990

In this example, the closing price is below the initial share price on each of the annual determination dates, and therefore the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the underlying stock has appreciated 70% from the hypothetical initial share price. At maturity, investors receive $1,990 per security, corresponding to an annual return of approximately 33%. However, investors do not participate in the appreciation of the underlying stock over the term of the securities.

Example 2 — The final share price is below the initial share price but at or above the downside threshold level.


Date	Closing Price	Payment (per Security)
1st Determination Date	$110.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)		--
2nd Determination Date	$100.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)		--
Final Determination Date	$200.00 (below the initial share price but at or above the downside threshold level)		$1,000

Example 3 — The final share price is below the downside threshold level.


Date	Closing Price	Payment (per Security)
1st Determination Date	$100.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)	--
2nd Determination Date	$120.00 (below the initial share price, securities are not redeemed)	--
Final Determination Date	$135.00 (below the downside threshold level)	$1,000 x share performance factor = $1,000 x 45% = $450

In this example, the closing price is below the initial share price on each of the annual determination dates, and therefore the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the final share price is below the downside threshold level, and accordingly, investors are fully exposed to the negative performance of the underlying stock over the term of the securities, and will receive a payment at maturity that is significantly less than the stated principal amount of the securities. The payment at maturity is $450 per security, representing a loss of 55% on the initial investment.

If the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment in the securities.

Risk Factors

This section describes the material risks relating to the securities. For further discussion of these and other risks, you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus. We also urge you to consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the securities.

Risks Relating to an Investment in the Securities

￭The securities do not pay interest or guarantee the return of any principal. The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that we will not pay you any interest and the securities do not guarantee the return of any of the stated principal amount at maturity. If the securities have not been automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, you will be exposed to the decline in the closing price of the underlying stock, as compared to the initial share price, on a 1-to-1 basis, and you will receive for each security that you hold at maturity an amount equal to the stated principal amount times the share performance factor. In this case, the payment at maturity will be less than 55% of the stated principal amount and could be zero.

￭The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the fixed early redemption payments or payment at maturity specified for each determination date. The appreciation potential of the securities is limited to the fixed early redemption payments specified for each determination date if the underlying stock closes at or above the initial share price on any of the determination dates, or to the fixed $1,990 upside payment at maturity if the securities have not been redeemed and the final share is at or above the initial share price. In all cases, you will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stock, which could be significant.

￭The market price will be influenced by many unpredictable factors. Several factors, many of which are beyond our control, will influence the value of the securities in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to purchase or sell the securities in the secondary market, including the trading price and volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the underlying stock, dividend rates on the underlying stock, interest and yield rates in the market, time remaining until the securities mature, geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying stock and which may affect the final share price of the underlying stock, the occurrence of certain events affecting the underlying stock that may or may not require an adjustment to the adjustment factor, and any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads. The price of the underlying stock may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. See “Tesla, Inc. Overview” below.

￭The securities are subject to our credit risk, and any actual or anticipated changes to our credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the securities. You are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the securities upon an early redemption or at maturity and therefore you are subject to our credit risk. If we default on our obligations under the securities, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the securities prior to maturity will be affected by changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness. Any actual or anticipated decline in our credit ratings or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the securities.

￭As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent operations and will have no independent assets. As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of its securities and will have no independent assets available for distributions to holders of MSFL securities if they make claims in respect of such securities in a bankruptcy, resolution or similar proceeding. Accordingly, any recoveries by such holders will be limited to those available under the related guarantee by Morgan Stanley and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of Morgan Stanley. Holders will have recourse only to a single claim against Morgan Stanley and its assets under the guarantee. Holders of securities issued by MSFL should accordingly assume that in any such proceedings they would not have any priority over and should be treated pari passu with the claims of other unsecured, unsubordinated creditors of Morgan Stanley, including holders of Morgan Stanley-issued securities.

￭Reinvestment risk. The term of your investment in the securities may be shortened due to the automatic early redemption feature of the securities. If the securities are redeemed prior to maturity, you will receive no further

December 2024 Page 9

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC

Jump Securities with Auto-Callable Feature Based on the Performance of the Common Stock of Tesla, Inc. due December 14, 2027

Principal at Risk Securities

payments on the securities and may be forced to invest in a lower interest rate environment and may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns.

￭The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited. The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time. When it does make a market, it will generally do so for transactions of routine secondary market size at prices based on its estimate of the current value of the securities, taking into account its bid/offer spread, our credit spreads, market volatility, the notional size of the proposed sale, the cost of unwinding any related hedging positions, the time remaining to maturity and the likelihood that it will be able to resell the securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Since other broker-dealers may not participate significantly in the secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which MS & Co. is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS & Co. were to cease making a market in the securities, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the securities. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities to maturity.

￭Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the common stock of Tesla, Inc. Investors in the securities will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying stock, and investors will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stock over the term of the securities. As a result, any return on the securities will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned shares of the underlying stock and received the dividends paid or distributions made on them.

￭The rate we are willing to pay for securities of this type, maturity and issuance size is likely to be lower than the rate implied by our secondary market credit spreads and advantageous to us. Both the lower rate and the inclusion of costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the securities, cause the estimated value of the securities to be less than the original issue price and will adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the prices, if any, at which dealers, including MS & Co., may be willing to purchase the securities in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the original issue price, because secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the original issue price and borne by you and because the secondary market prices will reflect our secondary market credit spreads and the bid-offer spread that any dealer would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type as well as other factors.

The inclusion of the costs of issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities in the original issue price and the lower rate we are willing to pay as issuer make the economic terms of the securities less favorable to you than they otherwise would be.

However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the issue date, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underlying stock, and to our secondary market credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the estimated value, and we expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements.

￭The estimated value of the securities is determined by reference to our pricing and valuation models, which may differ from those of other dealers and is not a maximum or minimum secondary market price. These pricing and valuation models are proprietary and rely in part on subjective views of certain market inputs and certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, because there is no market-standard way to value these types of securities, our models may yield a higher estimated value of the securities than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to value the securities. In addition, the estimated value on the pricing date does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which dealers, including MS & Co., would be willing to purchase your securities in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your securities at any time after the date of this document will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including our creditworthiness and changes in market conditions. See also “The market price will be influenced by many unpredictable factors” above.

￭Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates could potentially affect the value of the securities. One or more of our affiliates and/or third-party dealers expect to carry out hedging activities related to the securities (and to other instruments linked to the underlying stock), including trading in the underlying stock. As a result, these entities may be unwinding or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the securities, and the hedging strategy may involve greater and more frequent dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the final determination date approaches. Some of our affiliates also trade the underlying stock and other financial instruments related to the underlying stock on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to December 9, 2024 could potentially increase the initial share price, and, therefore, could increase the downside threshold level, which is the price at or above which the underlying stock must close on the final determination date (if the securities are not called) so that investors do not suffer a significant loss on their initial investment in the securities. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially affect the closing price of the underlying stock on the determination dates, and, accordingly, whether we redeem the securities prior to maturity and the amount of cash you will receive at maturity, if any.

￭The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make determinations with respect to the securities. As calculation agent, MS & Co. will determine the initial share price, the downside threshold level, the final share price, whether the securities will be redeemed following any determination date, whether a market disruption event has occurred, whether to make any adjustments to the adjustment factor and the payment that you will receive upon an early redemption or at maturity, if any. Moreover, certain determinations made by MS & Co., in its capacity as calculation agent, may require it to exercise discretion and make subjective judgments, such as with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events and certain adjustments to the adjustment factor. These potentially subjective determinations may adversely affect the payout to you upon an early redemption or at maturity, if any. For further information regarding these types of determinations, see “Description of Auto-Callable Securities—Postponement of Determination Dates,” “—Alternate Exchange Calculation in Case of an Event of Default,” and “—Calculation Agent and Calculations” in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date.

￭The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain. Please read the discussion under “Additional Information—Tax considerations” in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities (together, the “Tax Disclosure Sections”) concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities. There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the tax treatment of a security as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of the securities, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the securities, including the timing and character of income recognized by U.S. Holders and the withholding tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders, might be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities, possibly retroactively.

Both U.S. and Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including possible alternative treatments, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

research reports with respect to Tesla, Inc., which may or may not recommend that investors buy or hold the underlying stock.

￭The antidilution adjustments the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every corporate event that could affect the underlying stock. MS & Co., as calculation agent, will adjust the adjustment factor for certain corporate events affecting the underlying stock, such as stock splits, stock dividends and extraordinary dividends, and certain other corporate actions involving the issuer of the underlying stock, such as mergers. However, the calculation agent will not make an adjustment for every corporate event that can affect the underlying stock. For example, the calculation agent is not required to make any adjustments if the issuer of the underlying stock or anyone else makes a partial tender or partial exchange offer for the underlying stock, nor will adjustments be made following the final determination date. In addition, no adjustments will be made for regular cash dividends, which are expected to reduce the price of the underlying stock by the amount of such dividends. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to adjust the adjustment factor, such as a regular cash dividend, this may decrease the final share price of the underlying stock to be less than the downside threshold level (resulting in a loss of a significant portion or all of your investment in the securities), materially and adversely affecting your return.

Additional Terms of the Securities

Please read this information in conjunction with the terms on the front cover of this document.


Additional Terms:
If the terms described herein are inconsistent with those described in the accompanying product supplement or prospectus, the terms herein shall control.
Underlying stock:	The accompanying product supplement refers to the underlying stock as the “underlying shares.”
Underlying stock issuer:	Tesla, Inc. The accompanying product supplement refers to the underlying stock issuer as the “underlying company.”
Downside threshold level:	The accompanying product supplement refers to the downside threshold level as the “trigger level.”
Jump securities with auto-callable feature:	The accompanying product supplement refers to these jump securities with auto-callable feature as the “auto-callable securities.”
Postponement of maturity date:	If the final determination date is postponed due to a non-trading day or certain market disruption events so that it falls less than two business days prior to the scheduled maturity date, the maturity date will be postponed to the second business day following that final determination date as postponed, and no adjustment will be made to the payment at maturity paid on such postponed date.
Antidilution adjustments:	The following replaces in its entirety the portion of the section entitled “Antidilution Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities from the start of paragraph 5 to the end of such section. 5. If (i) there occurs any reclassification or change of the underlying stock, including, without limitation, as a result of the issuance of any tracking stock by the underlying stock issuer, (ii) the underlying stock issuer or any surviving entity or subsequent surviving entity of the underlying stock issuer (the “successor corporation”) has been subject to a merger, combination or consolidation and is not the surviving entity, (iii) any statutory exchange of securities of the underlying stock issuer or any successor corporation with another corporation occurs (other than pursuant to clause (ii) above), (iv) the underlying stock issuer is liquidated, (v) the underlying stock issuer issues to all of its shareholders equity securities of an issuer other than the underlying stock issuer (other than in a transaction described in clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above) (a “spin-off event”) or (vi) a tender or exchange offer or going-private transaction is consummated for all the outstanding shares of the underlying stock (any such event in clauses (i) through (vi), a “reorganization event”), the method of determining whether an early redemption has occurred and the amount payable upon an early redemption date or at maturity for each security will be as follows: ●Upon any determination date following the effective date of a reorganization event and prior to the final determination date: If the exchange property value (as defined below) is greater than or equal to the initial share price, the securities will be automatically redeemed for the relevant early redemption payment. ●Upon the final determination date, if the securities have not previously been automatically redeemed, the payment at maturity per security will equal: ➢If the exchange property value on the final determination date is greater than or equal to the initial share price: $1,990; or ➢If the exchange property value on the final determination date is less than the initial share price but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level: $1,000; or ➢If the exchange property value on the final determination date is less than the downside threshold level: (i) the stated principal amount multiplied by (ii) the share performance factor. For purposes of calculating the share performance factor, the “final share price” will be deemed to equal the exchange property value on the final determination date. In the event exchange property consists of securities, those securities will, in turn, be subject to the antidilution adjustments set forth in paragraphs 1 through 5.

	For purposes of determining whether or not the exchange property value is less than the initial share price or downside threshold level, “exchange property value” means (x) for any cash received in any reorganization event, the value, as determined by the calculation agent, as of the date of receipt, of such cash received for one share of the underlying stock, as adjusted by the adjustment factor at the time of such reorganization event, (y) for any property other than cash or securities received in any such reorganization event, the market value, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion, as of the date of receipt, of such exchange property received for one share of the underlying stock, as adjusted by the adjustment factor at the time of such reorganization event and (z) for any security received in any such reorganization event, an amount equal to the closing price, as of the day on which the exchange property value is determined, per share of such security multiplied by the quantity of such security received for each share of the underlying stock, as adjusted by the adjustment factor at the time of such reorganization event. For purposes of paragraph 5 above, in the case of a consummated tender or exchange offer or going-private transaction involving consideration of particular types, exchange property shall be deemed to include the amount of cash or other property delivered by the offeror in the tender or exchange offer (in an amount determined on the basis of the rate of exchange in such tender or exchange offer or going-private transaction). In the event of a tender or exchange offer or a going-private transaction with respect to exchange property in which an offeree may elect to receive cash or other property, exchange property shall be deemed to include the kind and amount of cash and other property received by offerees who elect to receive cash. Following the occurrence of any reorganization event referred to in paragraph 5 above, all references in this offering document and in the related product supplement with respect to the securities to “the underlying stock” shall be deemed to refer to the exchange property and references to a “share” or “shares” of the underlying stock shall be deemed to refer to the applicable unit or units of such exchange property, unless the context otherwise requires. No adjustment to the adjustment factor will be required unless such adjustment would require a change of at least 0.1% in the adjustment factor then in effect. The adjustment factor resulting from any of the adjustments specified above will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth, with five one-millionths rounded upward. Adjustments to the adjustment factor will be made up to the close of business on the final determination date. No adjustments to the adjustment factor or method of calculating the adjustment factor will be required other than those specified above. The adjustments specified above do not cover all events that could affect the determination closing price or the final share price of the underlying stock, including, without limitation, a partial tender or exchange offer for the underlying stock. The calculation agent shall be solely responsible for the determination and calculation of any adjustments to the adjustment factor or method of calculating the adjustment factor and of any related determinations and calculations with respect to any distributions of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) in connection with any corporate event described in paragraphs 1 through 5 above, and its determinations and calculations with respect thereto shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The calculation agent will provide information as to any adjustments to the adjustment factor or to the method of calculating the amount payable at maturity of the securities made pursuant to paragraph 5 above upon written request by any investor in the securities.
Denominations:	$1,000 per security and integral multiples thereof
Trustee:	The Bank of New York Mellon
Calculation agent:	MS & Co.
Issuer notice to registered security holders, the trustee and the depositary:	In the event that the maturity date is postponed due to postponement of the final determination date, the issuer shall give notice of such postponement and, once it has been determined, of the date to which the maturity date has been rescheduled (i) to each registered holder of the securities by mailing notice of such postponement by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such registered holder’s last address as it shall appear upon the registry books, (ii) to the trustee by facsimile, confirmed by mailing such notice to the trustee by first class mail, postage prepaid, at its New York office and (iii) to the depositary by telephone or facsimile confirmed by mailing such notice to the depositary by first class mail, postage prepaid. Any notice that is mailed to a

registered holder of the securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given to such registered holder, whether or not such registered holder receives the notice. The issuer shall give such notice as promptly as possible, and in no case later than (i) with respect to notice of postponement of the maturity date, the business day immediately preceding the scheduled maturity date and (ii) with respect to notice of the date to which the maturity date has been rescheduled, the business day immediately following the final determination date as postponed.

In the event that the securities are subject to early redemption, the issuer shall, (i) on the business day following the applicable determination date, give notice of the early redemption of the securities and the applicable early redemption payment, including specifying the payment date of the applicable amount due upon the early redemption, (x) to each registered holder of the securities by mailing notice of such early redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such registered holder’s last address as it shall appear upon the registry books, (y) to the trustee by facsimile, confirmed by mailing such notice to the trustee by first class mail, postage prepaid, at its New York office and (z) to the depositary by telephone or facsimile confirmed by mailing such notice to the depositary by first class mail, postage prepaid and (ii) on or prior to the early redemption date, deliver the aggregate cash amount due with respect to the securities to the trustee for delivery to the depositary, as holder of the securities. Any notice that is mailed to a registered holder of the securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given to such registered holder, whether or not such registered holder receives the notice.

The issuer shall, or shall cause the calculation agent to, (i) provide written notice to the trustee, on which notice the trustee may conclusively rely, and to the depositary of the amount of cash, if any, to be delivered with respect to each stated principal amount of the securities, on or prior to 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the business day preceding the maturity date, and (ii) deliver the aggregate cash amount due with respect to the securities, if any, to the trustee for delivery to the depositary, as holder of the securities, on the maturity date.

Additional Information About the Securities


Additional Information:
Minimum ticketing size:	$1,000 / 1 security
Tax considerations:	Although there is uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities due to the lack of governing authority, in the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, under current law, and based on current market conditions, it is reasonable to treat a security as a single financial contract that is an “open transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming this treatment of the securities is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result based on current law: ￭A U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize taxable income over the term of the securities prior to settlement, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange. ￭Upon sale, exchange or settlement of the securities, a U.S. Holder should recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the securities. Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if the investor has held the securities for more than one year, and short-term capital gain or loss otherwise. We do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the treatment of the securities. An alternative characterization of the securities could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the securities, including the timing and character of income recognized. In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have requested comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar financial instruments and have indicated that such transactions may be the subject of future regulations or other guidance. Furthermore, members of Congress have proposed legislative changes to the tax treatment of derivative contracts. Any legislation, Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive effect. As discussed in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities, Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% (or a lower applicable treaty rate) withholding tax on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities or indices that include U.S. equities (each, an “Underlying Security”). Subject to certain exceptions, Section 871(m) generally applies to securities that substantially replicate the economic performance of one or more Underlying Securities, as determined based on tests set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations (a “Specified Security”). However, pursuant to an IRS notice, Section 871(m) will not apply to securities issued before January 1, 2027 that do not have a delta of one with respect to any Underlying Security. Based on our determination that the securities do not have a delta of one with respect to any Underlying Security, our counsel is of the opinion that the securities should not be Specified Securities and, therefore, should not be subject to Section 871(m). Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination. Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including whether you enter into other transactions with respect to an Underlying Security. If withholding is required, we will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to the amounts so withheld. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the securities. Both U.S. and non-U.S. investors considering an investment in the securities should read the discussion under “Risk Factors” in this document and the discussion under “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including possible

December 2024 Page 18

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC

Principal at Risk Securities


	alternative treatments, and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. The discussion in the preceding paragraphs under “Tax considerations” and the discussion contained in the section entitled “United States Federal Taxation” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities, insofar as they purport to describe provisions of U.S. federal income tax laws or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities.
Use of proceeds and hedging:	The proceeds from the sale of the securities will be used by us for general corporate purposes. We will receive, in aggregate, $1,000 per security issued, because, when we enter into hedging transactions in order to meet our obligations under the securities, our hedging counterparty will reimburse the cost of the agent’s commissions. The costs of the securities borne by you and described beginning on page 4 above comprise the agent’s commissions and the cost of issuing, structuring and hedging the securities. On or prior to December 9, 2024, we will hedge our anticipated exposure in connection with the securities, by entering into hedging transactions with our affiliates and/or third-party dealers. We expect our hedging counterparties to take positions in the underlying stock, futures and options contracts on the underlying stock or positions in any other available securities or instruments that they may wish to use in connection with such hedging. Such purchase activity could increase the price of the underlying stock on December 9, 2024, and therefore increase the downside threshold level, which is the price at or above which the underlying stock must close on the final determination date (if the securities are not called) so that investors do not suffer a significant loss on their initial investment in the securities. In addition, through our affiliates, we are likely to modify our hedge position throughout the term of the securities, including on the determination dates, by purchasing and selling the underlying stock, options contracts relating to the underlying stock or any other available securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging activities. As a result, these entities may be unwinding or adjusting hedge positions during the term of the securities, and the hedging strategy may involve greater and more frequent dynamic adjustments to the hedge as the final determination date approaches. We cannot give any assurance that our hedging activities will not affect the value of the underlying stock, and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the securities or the payment you will receive at maturity, if any. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities.
Additional considerations:	Client accounts over which Morgan Stanley, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management or any of their respective subsidiaries have investment discretion are not permitted to purchase the securities, either directly or indirectly.
Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest:	MS & Co. expects to sell all of the securities that it purchases from us to an unaffiliated dealer at a price of $992.50 per security, for further sale to certain fee-based advisory accounts at the price to public of $1,000 per security. MS & Co. will not receive a sales commission with respect to the securities. MS & Co. is an affiliate of MSFL and a wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, and it and other affiliates of ours expect to make a profit by selling, structuring and, when applicable, hedging the securities. MS & Co. will conduct this offering in compliance with the requirements of FINRA Rule 5121 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., which is commonly referred to as FINRA, regarding a FINRA member firm’s distribution of the securities of an affiliate and related conflicts of interest. MS & Co. or any of our other affiliates may not make sales in this offering to any discretionary account. See “Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” and “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying product supplement for auto-callable securities.
Validity of the securities:	In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special counsel to MSFL and Morgan Stanley, when the securities offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and issued by MSFL, authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) and delivered against payment as contemplated herein, such securities will be valid and binding obligations of MSFL and the related guarantee will be a valid and binding obligation of Morgan Stanley, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith),

provided that such counsel expresses no opinion as to (i) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above and (ii) any provision of the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture that purports to avoid the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law by limiting the amount of Morgan Stanley’s obligation under the related guarantee. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the trustee’s authorization, execution and delivery of the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture and its authentication of the securities and the validity, binding nature and enforceability of the MSFL Senior Debt Indenture with respect to the trustee, all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated February 26, 2024, which is Exhibit 5-a to Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed by Morgan Stanley on February 26, 2024.
