the Committee may consult with any third party it deems necessary or advisable, including without limitation, any outside consultant or advisor. 
 (d) Neither the Company nor any member of the Board, the Committee or any Delegate and their respective affiliates and employees (each, an “Indemnified Person”) shall be liable in any
manner whatsoever in connection with the administration, construction or interpretation of this Plan, any Award Summary or any summary of the foregoing, except for any liability arising out of such person’s willful misconduct. Under no
circumstances shall any Indemnified Person be liable for any act or omission of any other Indemnified Person. In the performance of its, his or her functions with respect to this Plan, each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to rely upon
information and advice furnished by the Company’s officers, the Company’s accountants, the Company’s counsel, the Company’s tax advisers and any other person the Committee deems necessary or advisable, and no Indemnified Person
shall be liable for any action taken or not taken in reliance upon any such advice. The Company shall indemnify each Indemnified Person for any loss or damages that it, he or she incurs in connection with, or arising out of, this Plan, except for
any loss or damages that result from such Indemnified Person’s willful misconduct.

obligate the Company to allocate Points to any person. 
 (b) The Committee in its sole discretion may reserve for allocation
Points to such employees of the Investment Banking Division of the Company who are hired during the Point Allocation Year after the allocation of Points pursuant to SECTION 5(a) (for example, incoming associates or employees who are employed on a
lateral basis). 
 (c) If the Committee determines that any corporate transaction or event affects the Points such that it
determines that an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust
the number or value of Points allocated pursuant to SECTION 5(a) and SECTION 5(b).

 SECTION 6. Establishment of Accounts; Notional Administration Fee; Plan Investments.

 (a) For purposes of this Plan, in any Point Allocation Year, the Company shall treat a Participant as having been allocated
such Participant’s Points on the date set forth in such Participant’s Award Summary. As of such time, the Company shall establish an Account for such Participant, to which it shall credit such Participant’s Points. 

(b) This Plan shall notionally acquire Plan Investments for the benefit of Participants for a purchase price equal to the fair market
value (as the Committee shall determine) of such Plan Investments at the time of their acquisition. Participants shall participate in each Plan Investment pro rata based on their respective Points, unless the Committee determines otherwise in its
sole discretion on a Plan Investment-by-Plan Investment basis. 
 (c) Subject to SECTION 11, if the Company realizes Proceeds in
respect of a Plan Investment, the Company shall credit each Participant’s Account with that Participant’s notional share of such Proceeds in accordance with such Participant’s Points as soon as reasonably practicable following such
realization. Any such credit will be net of such Participant’s accrued and unpaid Notional Administration Fee at the time of such application. Amounts so credited will accrue interest at the Treasury Rate until the Scheduled Distribution Date
(or, if SECTION 8(b)(iii) applies, until the applicable Alternative Scheduled Distribution Date. 
 (d) The Company shall charge
each Participant’s Account a notional annual administration fee (the “Notional Administration Fee”) in an amount that the Committee determines in its discretion from time to time, which amount shall not exceed 1.5% of the sum
of the initial aggregate cost of the Plan Investments allocated to such Participant (based on such Participant’s Points); provided that the aggregate amount of Notional Administration Fee charged to all Accounts in any fiscal year will
not exceed the Company’s cost of administering this Plan during such fiscal year. The Notional Administration Fee shall accrue every fiscal quarter in arrears and shall be charged against the Participant’s Account. The Notional
Administration Fee will reduce the amount payable to a Participant pursuant to this Plan, but a Participant shall not otherwise have any obligation to reimburse the Company for the Notional Administration Fee charged to his Account. 

(e) The Participant’s Account shall be debited by any amount paid to the Participant pursuant to this Plan. 

SECTION 7. Award Summary. 
 (a) The Company shall issue to each Participant an Award Summary evidencing such Participant’s participation in this Plan. 
 (b) A Participant may not assign such Participant’s Award Summary by operation of law or otherwise. The Company may assign an Award Summary or any of the Company’s obligations under this Plan or
thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant’s Award Summary shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the personal representatives, heirs, legatees, successors and assigns of the Company and such Participant.

 SECTION 8. Payments. 

(a) The Company shall make any payment in respect of a Participant’s Account in accordance with this SECTION 8. Nothing in this Plan
or in any Award Summary shall be construed to obligate the Company to realize Proceeds or to guarantee to any Participant a right to receive Proceeds. 
 (b) Effective January 1, 2009, and except as otherwise provided in this Plan or the applicable Award Summary and subject in all cases to SECTION 11, payments in respect of Awards shall be made as
follows: 
 (ii) On the Scheduled Distribution Date for an Award, the Company will make payment of the
Applicable Account Value attributable to that Award together with the Residual Value, if any, of the Award determined as of the December 31 immediately preceding the Scheduled Distribution Date. Following such payment, a Participant shall have
no further interest in such Award or in any Proceeds realized by the Company in respect of the Plan Investments that were related to such Award. 
 (iii) If prior to the December 31 immediately preceding the Scheduled Distribution Date for an Award, the Company receives a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or other similar
guidance, that the application of this SECTION 8(b)(iii) is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not result in a Participant being required to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes before the Participant’s
Account is paid, or in the Participant incurring additional tax or interest under Section 409A, then the payment schedule set forth in this SECTION 8(b)(iii) shall apply to the relevant Award in lieu of the payment scheduled set forth in
SECTION 8(b)(ii). In the event that the Company receives such favorable ruling or other similar guidance, payments shall be made in respect of a particular Award on each Alternative Scheduled Distribution Date in an amount equal to the
Participant’s notional share of Proceeds, if any, realized in respect of Plan Investments subject to the relevant Award since the last Alternative Scheduled Distribution Date (or, in the case of payments made on the First Alternative Scheduled
Distribution Date, if so permitted by such ruling or other relevant guidance, in an amount equal to the Participant’s notional share of previously undistributed Proceeds, if any, realized in respect of Plan Investments subject to the relevant
Award since the Award Date), as adjusted (positively or negatively) by interest accruals pursuant to SECTION 6(c) and for the Notional Administration Fee in accordance with SECTION 6(d). The payment made on the Final Alternative Scheduled
Distribution Date will include the Residual Value of the relevant Award determined as of the December 31 immediately preceding such Final Alternative Scheduled Distribution Date. Following such final payment, a Participant shall have no further
interest in the relevant Award or in any Proceeds realized by the Company in respect of the Plan Investments that were related to such Award. 

  
 11 









 (c) The Company shall make all payments to Participants pursuant to this SECTION 8 in cash.

 (d) The Company shall have no right to accelerate the payment of any portion of the Applicable Account Value of any Award,
except to the extent that such acceleration is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not result in a Participant (i) being required to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes before payments are made to the
Participant under this Plan or (ii) incurring additional tax or interest under Section 409A. 
 (e) Notwithstanding
the other provisions of this Plan, if on any date on which the Company would otherwise make a payment to the Participant, the Company considers the Participant to be an executive officer whose compensation may not be fully deductible by virtue of
Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may delay making the nondeductible portion of such payment. This delay in payment will continue until the Participant’s Separation from Service, and, subject to SECTION 9, payment shall be made
upon the Participant’s Separation from Service. During the period that the Company delays such payment, the amount whose payment is delayed shall accrue interest at LIBOR. 

SECTION 9. Specified Employees. Notwithstanding anything contrary set forth in this Plan or any Annual Summary, if the Company
considers a Participant to be one of its Specified Employees at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service, any distribution or other payment of all or any portion of the Participant’s Applicable Account Value that is due upon
or as a result of the Participant’s Separation from Service will be delayed to the extent it otherwise would be payable within the six months after the Participant’s Separation from Service, and shall instead be made on the first business
day following the date that is six months after the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service, provided, however, that in the event the Participant’s Governmental Service Termination or employment at a Governmental
Employer following termination of employment with the Company under circumstances set forth in SECTION 10(b) occurs at any time after the Award Date, payment will be made in accordance with SECTION 10. 

SECTION 10. Governmental Service. 
 (a) If the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates in a Governmental Service Termination, then the fair value (as determined by the Committee as of the last day of the month preceding
the month in which such Governmental Service Termination occurs) of the Awards that the Participant held at the time of such Governmental Service Termination, will be distributed to the Participant on the date of such Governmental Service
Termination. 
 (b) If the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates other than in a Governmental Service
Termination and, following the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, the Participant accepts employment with a Governmental Employer, then the fair value (as determined by the Committee as of the last day of the month
preceding the month in which the Participant commences such employment) of the Awards that the Participant held at the time of such commencement of employment with such Governmental Employer will be distributed to the Participant upon the
Participant’s commencement of such 

  
 12 









 
employment, provided that the Participant presents the Company with satisfactory evidence demonstrating that as a result of such employment the divestiture of the Participant’s
interest in Morgan Stanley awards (including awards settled in cash) is reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of U.S. federal, state or local or foreign ethics law or conflicts of interest law applicable to the Participant at such Governmental
Employer. 
 SECTION 11. Forfeiture of Points. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, notwithstanding anything in
this Plan or in an Award Summary to the contrary, upon the occurrence of a Forfeiture Event with respect to a Participant at any time, the Company shall cause such Participant to forfeit all of such Participant’s Points. Following such
forfeiture no further allocations of Proceeds shall be made to the Participant’s Account pursuant to SECTION 6(c), but amounts credited to the Participant’s Account as of the date of forfeiture will continue to accrue interest at the
Treasury Rate as provided in SECTION 6(c) until payment. Payment in respect of the Participant’s Award will be made as provided in SECTION 8 (or, if applicable, SECTION 10); for the avoidance of doubt, it is noted that such payment will not
include any amount attributable to the Residual Value of the Award. The Committee shall reallocate any forfeited Points to other Participants participating in the Plan during the fiscal year of such Forfeiture Event. The Committee, in its sole
discretion, shall determine the basis for such reallocation of forfeited Points. Any such forfeited Points that are not so reallocated by the end of such fiscal year shall be retired. 

SECTION 12. Transferability. 
 (a) No Participant may transfer (other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution), pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or encumber such Participant’s Points or any Award or
interest in this Plan. 
 (b) During a Participant’s lifetime, the Company shall make any payment in respect of such
Participant’s Applicable Account Value only to such Participant. A Participant may make a written designation of beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive all or part of the amounts that the Company shall pay in respect of such Participant’s
Points in the event of such Participant’s death. To make a beneficiary designation, a Participant must complete and submit the Beneficiary Designation form on the Executive Compensation website at
http://execcomp.corpms.com/site/execcomp/webapp/beneficiary.jsp. A Participant may replace or revoke a designation of a beneficiary at any time. If there is any question as to the legal right of any beneficiary to receive payment in respect
of a Participant’s Points, the Company may determine in its sole discretion to pay the amount in question to the Participant’s estate. The Company’s determination shall be binding and conclusive on all persons and it will have no
further liability to anyone with respect to such payment.

 (c) In the event of a Participant’s death, the Company shall make any payment in
respect of such Participant’s Applicable Account Value to (i) the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated in accordance with this SECTION 12 and (ii) if such designated beneficiary or beneficiaries are not available, such
Participant’s estate. If there is any dispute as to the legal right of any beneficiary to receive payment under this Plan, then the Company may pay, in its sole discretion, the disputed amount to the estate, or the legal representative of such
Participant, in which event the Company shall have no further liability to anyone with respect to such payment. 
 SECTION 13.
Withholding Taxes; Other Obligations. 
 (a) Any vesting, payment, distribution or Award made under the Plan shall be subject to
the Company’s withholding of all required United States federal, state, local and foreign income and employment/payroll taxes (including Federal Insurance Contributions Act (“FICA”) taxes), and all such payments, distributions, or
awards shall be net of such tax withholding. In addition to withholding such taxes from the payment giving rise to such withholding obligation, and subject to the immediately following sentence, the Company may withhold such taxes from any payroll
or other payment or compensation to the Participant and to take such other action as the Company may deem advisable to enable it and Participants to satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations, assessments, or
other governmental charges, whether of the United States or any other jurisdiction, relating to the vesting or payment of an Award. However, the Company may not deduct or withhold such sum from any payroll or any other payment or compensation,
except to the extent it is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not cause the Participant to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes prior to the scheduled payment of any amount under the Plan or to incur interest or
additional tax under Section 409A. In its discretion, the Company may accelerate the payment of any amount under the Plan to the extent necessary to pay (i) any FICA taxes imposed on such amount prior to the scheduled payment thereof and
(ii) any income tax withholding imposed as a result of accelerated payment pursuant to the preceding clause (i). 
 (b) The
Company shall have no authority to withhold any amount from a payment or distribution pursuant the Plan for the purpose of satisfying all or any part of an obligation that a Participant owes to the Company, except (i) to the extent authorized
under SECTION 13(a) relating to tax and other withholding obligations or (ii) otherwise, to the extent such withholding is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not cause the Participant to recognize income for United States federal
income tax purposes prior to the time of payment of any amount hereunder or to incur interest or additional tax under Section 409A. The Company’s determination of any amount that a Participant owes the Company shall be conclusive.

 SECTION 14. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Subject to SECTION 6(d), the Company shall bear all expenses and costs that it incurs in connection with the administration of this Plan.

 (b) Nothing in this Plan or any Award Summary shall confer upon any Participant the right to
continue in the employment of the Company or any of its affiliates or to be entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in this Plan or such Award Summary or to interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its
affiliates to terminate such employment. 
 (c) Each Participant shall keep confidential all matters relating to this Plan and
its affairs (including the terms of this Plan and such Participant’s Award Summary, information concerning any Plan Investment and communications from the Company relating thereto), except as otherwise required by law. The Company’s Code
of Conduct regarding proprietary information shall cover such matters.

solely for the convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning of any of the provisions of this Plan.

relating to the subject matter thereof. 
 (f) Each Award Summary is subject to the provisions of this Plan and all of the
provisions of this Plan are incorporated into each Award Summary as provisions of such Award Summary. If there is a conflict between the provisions of an Award Summary and the provisions of this Plan (as may be supplemented by an Annex), then the
provisions of this Plan shall govern.

CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THIS PLAN SHALL BE RESOLVED THROUGH ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK.

 (h) Neither this Plan nor any Award Summary shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a
fiduciary relationship between the Company, a Participant or any other person or shall create or be construed to create a segregation by the Company of any assets to fund this Plan. To the extent any Participant has a right to receive payments from
the Company pursuant to this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

  
 15 









 (i) A Participant’s participation in this Plan shall be conditioned on the Company
making any filings and the Company’s receipt of any consents or authorizations required to comply with, or required to be obtained under, applicable local law. To the extent necessary to comply with the local law of any jurisdiction in which
the Company offers and implements this Plan, the Company may supplement this Plan and/or any Award Summary with an annex (an “Annex”), which Annex shall set forth certain terms and conditions applicable to such offer and
implementation in such jurisdiction. If there is a conflict between the provisions of this Plan and the provisions contained in an Annex, then the provisions of such Annex shall govern. 

(j) If any provision of this Plan or any Award Summary is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction or as to any Participant, or would disqualify this Plan or such Award Summary under applicable law, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to such law, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without
materially altering the intent of this Plan or such Award Summary, then such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction or as to such Participant, and the remainder of this Plan or such Award Summary shall remain in full force and effect.
