 MORGAN STANLEY 

[YEAR] 

DISCRETIONARY RETENTION AWARDS 

AWARD CERTIFICATE FOR STOCK UNITS 

Morgan Stanley has awarded you retention stock units as part of your discretionary long-term incentive compensation for services provided
during [year] and as an incentive for you to remain in Employment and provide services to the Firm through the Scheduled Vesting Dates. This Award Certificate sets forth the general terms and conditions of your [year] stock unit award. The number of
stock units in your award has been communicated to you independently. 
 If you are employed outside the United States, you will
also receive an “International Supplement” that contains supplemental terms and conditions for your [year] stock unit award. You should read this Award Certificate in conjunction with the International Supplement, if
applicable, in order to understand the terms and conditions of your stock unit award. 
 Your stock unit award is made pursuant
to the Plan. References to “stock units” in this Award Certificate mean only those stock units included in your [year] stock unit award, and the terms and conditions herein apply only to such award. If you receive any other award under the
Plan or another equity compensation plan, it will be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable award documentation, which may be different from those herein. 

The purpose of the stock unit award is, among other things, to align your interests with the interests of the Firm and Morgan
Stanley’s stockholders, to reward you for your continued Employment and service to the Firm in the future and your compliance with the Firm’s policies (including the Code of Conduct), to protect the Firm’s interests in non-public,
confidential and/or proprietary information, products, trade secrets, customer relationships, and other legitimate business interests, and to ensure an orderly transition of responsibilities. In view of these purposes, you will earn each portion of
your [year] stock unit award only if you (1) remain in continuous Employment through the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date (subject to limited exceptions set forth below), (2) do not engage in any activity that is a cancellation event set
forth in Section 10(c) below and (3) satisfy obligations you owe to the Firm as set forth in Section 12 below. Even if your award has vested, you will have no right to your award if a cancellation event occurs under the
circumstances set forth in Section 10(c) below. As Morgan Stanley deems appropriate, it will require you to provide a written certification or other evidence, from time to time in its sole discretion, to confirm that no cancellation event has
occurred, including upon a termination of Employment and/or during a specified period of time prior to each Scheduled Conversion Date. If you fail to timely provide any required certification or other evidence, Morgan Stanley will cancel your award.
It is your responsibility to provide the Executive Compensation Department with your up-to-date contact information.

 Capitalized terms used in this Award Certificate that are not defined in the text have the
meanings set forth in Section 22 below. Capitalized terms used in this Award Certificate that are not defined in the text or in Section 22 below have the meanings set forth in the Plan. 

 

	1.	Stock units generally. 


Each of your stock units corresponds to one share of Morgan Stanley common stock. A stock unit constitutes a contingent and unsecured
promise of Morgan Stanley to pay you one share of Morgan Stanley common stock on the conversion date for the stock unit. As the holder of stock units, you have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Morgan Stanley. You will not be a
stockholder with respect to the shares of Morgan Stanley common stock corresponding to your stock units unless and until your stock units convert to shares. 
  

	2.	Vesting schedule and conversion. 


(a) Vesting schedule. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, your stock units will vest according to
the following schedule: (i) 50% of your stock units will vest on the First Scheduled Vesting Date and (ii) the remaining 50% of your stock units will vest on the Second Scheduled Vesting
Date.1 Any fractional stock units resulting from the
application of the vesting schedule will be aggregated and will vest on the Second Scheduled Vesting Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, each portion of your stock units will vest only if you continue to provide future
services to the Firm by remaining in continuous Employment through the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date and providing value added services to the Firm during this timeframe. The special vesting terms set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7 and 8 of this
Award Certificate apply (i) if your Employment terminates by reason of your death or Disability, (ii) upon your Full Career Retirement, (iii) if the Firm terminates your employment in an involuntary termination under the circumstances
described in Section 6, (iv) upon a Governmental Service Termination or (v) upon a Qualifying Termination. Vested stock units remain subject to the cancellation and withholding provisions set forth in this Award Certificate.

 (b) Conversion. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, (i) 50% of your stock units
will, to the extent vested, convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock on the First Scheduled Conversion Date and (ii) the remaining 50% of your stock units will, to the extent vested, convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock on
the Second Scheduled Conversion Date.2 The special
conversion provisions set forth in Sections 5(a), 5(b), 7 and 8 of this Award Certificate apply (i) if your Employment terminates by reason of your death or you die after termination of your Employment, (ii) upon your Governmental Service

Termination or your employment at a Governmental Employer following your termination of employment with the Firm under circumstances set forth in Section 7(b), or (iii) upon a
Qualifying Termination. 
 The shares delivered upon conversion of stock units pursuant to this Section 2(b) will not be
subject to any transfer restrictions, other than those that may arise under the securities laws, the Firm’s policies or Section 12 below, or to cancellation under the circumstances set forth in Section 10(c). 

(c) Accelerated conversion. Morgan Stanley shall have no right to accelerate the conversion of any of your stock
units or the payment of any of your dividend equivalents, except to the extent that such acceleration is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not result in your being required to recognize income for United States federal income tax
purposes before your stock units convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock or your dividend equivalents are paid or your incurring additional tax or interest under Section 409A. If any stock units are converted to shares of Morgan
Stanley common stock or any dividend equivalents are paid prior to the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date pursuant to this Section 2(c), these shares or dividend equivalents may not be transferable and may remain subject to applicable
vesting, cancellation and withholding provisions, as determined by Morgan Stanley. 
 (d) Rule of construction for
timing of conversion. Whenever this Award Certificate provides for your stock units to convert to shares, or your dividend equivalents to be paid, on the First Scheduled Conversion Date or the Second Scheduled Conversion Date or upon a
different specified event or date, such conversion or payment will be considered to have been timely made, and neither you nor any of your beneficiaries or your estate shall have any claim against the Firm for damages based on a delay in conversion
of your stock units (or delivery of Morgan Stanley shares following conversion) or payment of the dividend equivalents, as applicable, and the Firm shall have no liability to you (or to any of your beneficiaries or your estate) in respect of any
such delay, as long as conversion or payment, as applicable, is made by December 31 of the year in which occurs the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date or such other specified event or date or, if later, by the 15th day of the third calendar
month following such specified event or date. Similarly, neither you nor any of your beneficiaries or your estate shall have any claim against the Firm for damages, and the Firm shall have no liability to you (or to any of your beneficiaries or your
estate), based on any acceleration of the conversion of your stock units or payment of your dividend equivalents pursuant to Section 2(c), as applicable. 
  

	3.	Special provision for certain employees. 


Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Award Certificate, if Morgan Stanley considers you to be one of its executive officers at the
time provided for the conversion of your vested stock units and determines that your compensation may not be fully deductible by virtue of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, Morgan Stanley shall delay payment of the nondeductible
portion of your compensation, including delaying, to the extent nondeductible, conversion of the stock units and payment of the dividend equivalents, unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines not to delay such conversion or payment.
This delay will continue until your Separation from Service or to the extent permitted under Section 409A, the end of the first earlier taxable year of the Firm as of the last day of which you are no longer an executive officer (subject to
earlier conversion in the event of your death as described below). 
  

 4 









	4.	Dividend equivalent payments. 


Until your stock units convert to shares, if Morgan Stanley pays a regular or ordinary dividend on its common stock, you will be credited
with cash dividend equivalents with respect to your vested and unvested stock units. Morgan Stanley will credit the dividend equivalents when it pays the corresponding dividend on its common stock. Your dividend equivalents will vest and be paid at
the same time as, and subject to the same vesting and cancellation provisions set forth in this Award Certificate with respect to, your stock units (provided that, subject to Section 2(d), the dividend equivalents may be paid following the
Scheduled Conversion Date on the next administratively practicable payroll date). The decision to pay a dividend and, if so, the amount of any such dividend, is determined by Morgan Stanley in its sole discretion. No dividend equivalents will be
paid to you on any canceled stock units. 
  

	5.	Death, Disability and Full Career Retirement. 


The following special vesting and payment terms apply to your stock units: 

(a) Death during Employment. If your Employment terminates due to death, all of your unvested stock units will vest
on the date of your death. Your stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock and be delivered to the beneficiary you have designated pursuant to Section 14 or the legal representative of your estate, as applicable, upon
your death, provided that your estate or beneficiary notifies the Firm of your death within 60 days following your death. 

After your death, the cancellation provisions set forth in Section 10(c) will no longer apply, and the shares delivered upon
conversion of stock units pursuant to this Section 5(a) will not be subject to any transfer restrictions (other than those that may arise under the securities laws or the Firm’s policies). 

(b) Death after termination of Employment. If you die after the termination of your Employment but prior to the
applicable Scheduled Conversion Date, any vested stock units that you held at the time of your death will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock and be delivered to the beneficiary you have designated pursuant to Section 14 or the
legal representative of your estate, as applicable, upon your death, provided that your estate or beneficiary notifies the Firm of your death within 60 days following your death. 

After your death, the cancellation provisions set forth in Section 10(c) will no longer apply, and the shares delivered upon
conversion of stock units pursuant to this Section 5(b) will not be subject to any transfer restrictions (other than those that may arise under the securities laws or the Firm’s policies). 

(c) Disability or Full Career Retirement. If your Employment terminates due to Disability or in a Full Career
Retirement, all of your unvested stock units will vest on the 
  

 5 








 
date your Employment terminates. Your stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock on the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date. The cancellation and withholding provisions
set forth in this Award Certificate will continue to apply until the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date. 
  

	6.	Involuntary termination by the Firm. 


If the Firm terminates your employment under circumstances not involving any cancellation event set forth in Section 10(c), your
unvested stock units will vest on the date your employment with the Firm terminates and your stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock on the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date, provided that you sign an agreement
and release satisfactory to the Firm. If you do not sign such an agreement and release satisfactory to the Firm within the timeframe set by the Firm in connection with your involuntary termination as described in this Section 6, any stock units
that were unvested immediately prior to your termination shall be canceled. The cancellation and withholding provisions set forth in this Award Certificate will continue to apply until the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date. 

 

	7.	Governmental Service. 


(a) General treatment of awards upon Governmental Service Termination. If your Employment terminates in a
Governmental Service Termination and not involving a cancellation event set forth in Section 10(c), then, provided that you sign an agreement satisfactory to the Firm relating to your obligations pursuant to Section 7(c), all of
your unvested stock units will vest on the date of your Governmental Service Termination. Your vested stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock on the date of your Governmental Service Termination. 

(b) General treatment of vested awards upon acceptance of employment at a Governmental Employer following termination of
Employment. If your Employment terminates other than in a Governmental Service Termination and not involving a cancellation event set forth in Section 10(c) and, following your termination of Employment, you accept employment with a
Governmental Employer, then, provided that you sign an agreement satisfactory to the Firm relating to your obligations pursuant to Section 7(c), all of your outstanding vested stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common
stock upon your commencement of such employment, provided you present the Firm with satisfactory evidence demonstrating that as a result of such employment the divestiture of your continued interest in Morgan Stanley equity awards or
continued ownership of Morgan Stanley common stock 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 you at such Governmental Employer. 

(c) Repayment obligation. If you engage in any activity constituting a cancellation event set forth in
Section 10(c) within the applicable period of time that would have resulted in cancellation of all or a portion of your stock units had they not converted to shares pursuant to Sections 7(a) or 7(b) above (disregarding, for purposes of
determining whether a cancellation event has occurred, any Full Career Retirement condition set forth in Section 10(c)(1)), you will be required to pay to Morgan Stanley an amount equal to: 

(i) the number of stock units that would have been canceled upon the occurrence of such cancellation event multiplied by
the fair market value, determined using a valuation methodology established by Morgan Stanley, of Morgan Stanley common stock on the date your stock units converted to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock; plus 

 

 6 








 (ii) any dividend equivalents that were paid to you on the number of stock
units described in the foregoing clause (i) when your stock units converted to shares pursuant to Section 7(a) or 7(b); plus 

(iii) interest on the amounts described in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) at the average rate of interest
Morgan Stanley paid to borrow money from financial institutions during the period from the date of such conversion through the date preceding the payment date. 
  

	8.	Qualifying Termination. 


If your employment terminates in a Qualifying Termination, all of your unvested stock units will vest, cancellation provisions will lapse,
and, subject to Section 9, your stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock upon your Qualifying Termination. 
  

	9.	Specified employees. 


Notwithstanding any other terms of this Award Certificate, if Morgan Stanley considers you to be one of its “specified
employees” as defined in Section 409A at the time of your Separation from Service, any conversion of your stock units and payment of your accrued dividend equivalents that otherwise would occur upon your Separation from Service (including,
without limitation, stock units whose conversion was delayed due to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as provided in Section 3, and stock units payable upon your Qualifying Termination, as provided in Section 8) will be
delayed until the first business day following the date that is six months after your Separation from Service; provided, however, that in the event that your death, your Governmental Service Termination or your employment at a Governmental
Employer following your termination of employment with the Firm under circumstances set forth in Section 7(b) occurs at any time after the Date of the Award, conversion and payment will be made in accordance with Section 5(a), 5(b), or 7,
as applicable. 
  

 7 









	10.	Cancellation of awards under certain circumstances. 


(a) Cancellation of unvested awards. Your unvested stock units, and any dividend equivalents credited on your stock
units, will be canceled if your Employment terminates for any reason other than death, Disability, a Full Career Retirement, an involuntary termination by the Firm described in Section 6, a Governmental Service Termination or a Qualifying
Termination. 
 (b) General treatment of vested awards. Except as otherwise provided in this Award
Certificate, your vested stock units will convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock, and the dividend equivalents credited on your stock units will be paid, on the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date. The cancellation and withholding
provisions set forth in this Award Certificate will continue to apply until the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date. 

(c) Cancellation of awards under certain circumstances. The cancellation events set forth in this Section 10(c)
are designed, among other things, to incentivize compliance with the Firm’s policies (including the Code of Conduct), to protect the Firm’s interests in non-public, confidential and/or proprietary information, products, trade secrets,
customer relationships, and other legitimate business interests, and to ensure an orderly transition of responsibilities. This Section 10(c) shall apply notwithstanding any other terms of this Award Certificate (except where sections in this
Award Certificate specifically provide that the cancellation events set forth in this Section 10(c) no longer apply). 

Your stock units (and any dividend equivalents credited thereon), even if vested, are not earned until the applicable Scheduled
Conversion Date (and until you satisfy all obligations you owe to the Firm as set forth in Section 12 below) and, unless prohibited by applicable law, will be canceled prior to the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date in any of the
circumstances set forth below in Section 10(c)(1) or (2). Although you will become the beneficial owner of shares underlying your stock units following conversion of your stock units, the Firm may retain custody of your shares (and any dividend
equivalents credited thereon) following conversion of your stock units pending any investigation or other review that impacts the determination as to whether the stock units (and any dividend equivalents credited thereon) are cancellable under the
circumstances set forth below and, in such an instance, the shares underlying such stock units (and any dividend equivalents credited thereon) shall be forfeited in the event the Firm determines that the stock units (and any dividend equivalents
credited thereon) were cancellable under the circumstances set forth below. 
  

 8 








 (1) Competitive Activity. If you resign and the resulting
termination satisfies the definition of a Full Career Retirement, or if you resign (whether in a Full Career Retirement or otherwise) following the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date, but prior to the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date, and in
either case you engage in Competitive Activity, the following shall apply, subject to applicable
law:3 

(i) If your Competitive Activity occurs before the First Scheduled Conversion Date, then all of your stock units (and any
dividend equivalents credited on your stock units) will be canceled immediately. 
 (ii) If your Competitive
Activity occurs on or after the First Scheduled Conversion Date but before the Second Scheduled Conversion Date, then the 50% of your stock units that are scheduled to convert on the Second Scheduled Conversion Date (and any dividend equivalents
credited on those stock units) will be canceled immediately. 
 (2) Other Events. If any of the following events
occur at any time before the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date, all of your stock units (whether or not vested), and any dividend equivalents credited on your stock units, will be canceled immediately, subject to applicable law: 

(i) Your Employment is terminated for Cause or you engage in conduct constituting Cause (either during or following
Employment and whether or not your Employment has been terminated as of the applicable Scheduled Conversion Date); 

(ii) Following the termination of your Employment, the Firm determines that your Employment could have been terminated for
Cause (for these purposes, “Cause” will be determined without giving consideration to any “cure” period included in the definition of “Cause”); 

 
  

	3
	 Provided that, for the Chief Executive Officer only, this provision only applies if such termination is not a termination for Good Reason. For
these purposes, Good Reason is defined as a resignation following: (i) his removal from the position of Chief Executive Officer of Morgan Stanley; (ii) his failure to be elected or reelected to the Board of Directors of Morgan Stanley;
(iii) a change in his reporting relationship such that he is no longer reporting directly and solely to the Board of Directors of Morgan Stanley; (iv) a material diminution of his duties and responsibilities as the Chief Executive Officer
of Morgan Stanley that is not agreed by the parties or the assignment to him of duties materially inconsistent with his position, duties or responsibilities, or any other material action by Morgan Stanley which is materially inconsistent or
materially reduces his position, duties or responsibilities; (v) any material breach by Morgan Stanley of its material obligations to provide payments or benefits as required in his offer letter; or (vi) Morgan Stanley’s requiring his
principal office to be based at any office or location other than the office or location designated as Morgan Stanley’s principal executive offices. 



Notwithstanding the foregoing, he will not be deemed to have resigned for Good Reason unless (i) he has given the Chairman of the
Board written notification of his intention to do so, describing the factual basis for “Good Reason” and (ii) the event giving rise to “Good Reason” is not cured by Morgan Stanley within 30 business days after the Chairman
of the Board’s receipt of the notice. 
  

 9 








 (iii) You disclose Confidential and Proprietary Information to any
unauthorized person outside the Firm, or use or attempt to use Confidential and Proprietary Information other than in connection with the business of the Firm; or you fail to comply with your obligations (either during or after your Employment)
under the Firm’s Code of Conduct (and any applicable supplements) or otherwise existing between you and the Firm, relating to Confidential and Proprietary Information or an assignment, procurement or enforcement of rights in Confidential and
Proprietary Information; 
 (iv) You engage in a Wrongful Solicitation; 

(v) You make any Unauthorized Comments; 

(vi) You fail or refuse, following your termination of Employment, to cooperate with or assist the Firm in a timely manner
in connection with any investigation, regulatory matter, lawsuit or arbitration in which the Firm is a subject, target or party and as to which you may have pertinent information; or 

(vii) You resign from your employment with the Firm without having provided the Firm prior written notice of your
resignation at least: 
  

	 	(A)	180 days before the date on which your employment with the Firm terminates if you are a member of the Management Committee at the time of notice of your resignation;


  

	 	(B)	90 days before the date on which your employment with the Firm terminates if clause (A) of this Section 10(c)(2)(vii) does not apply to you and you are a
Managing Director (or equivalent title) at the time of notice of your resignation; 

  

	 	(C)	60 days before the date on which your employment with the Firm terminates if you are an Executive Director (or equivalent title) at the time of notice of your
resignation; and 

  

	 	(D)	30 days before the date on which your employment with the Firm terminates if none of clauses (A) through (C) of this Section 10(c)(2)(vii) apply to you
at the time of notice of your resignation. 

  

 10 









	11.	Tax and other withholding obligations. 


Any vesting, whether on a Scheduled Vesting Date or some other date, of a stock unit award (including dividend equivalents that have been
credited in respect of your stock units), and any conversion of a stock unit award or crediting or payment of dividend equivalents, shall be subject to the Firm’s withholding of all required United States federal, state, local and foreign
income and employment/payroll taxes (including Federal Insurance Contributions Act taxes). You authorize the Firm to withhold such taxes from any payroll or other payment or compensation to you, including by canceling or accelerating payment of a
portion of this award (including any dividend equivalents that have been credited on your stock units) in an amount not to exceed such taxes imposed upon such vesting, conversion, crediting or payment and any additional taxes imposed as a result of
such cancellation or acceleration, and to take such other action as the Firm may deem advisable to enable it and you 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 conversion of your stock units or the crediting or payment of dividend equivalents. However, the Firm may not deduct or withhold such sum from any payroll or any
other payment or compensation (including from your award), except to the extent it is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not cause you to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes before your stock units convert to
shares of Morgan Stanley common stock or to incur interest or additional tax under Section 409A. 
 Pursuant to rules and
procedures that Morgan Stanley establishes, you may elect to satisfy the tax or other withholding obligations arising upon conversion of your stock units by having Morgan Stanley withhold shares of Morgan Stanley common stock in an amount sufficient
to satisfy the tax or other withholding obligations. Shares withheld will be valued using the fair market value of Morgan Stanley common stock on the date your stock units convert (or such other appropriate date determined
by Morgan Stanley based on local legal, tax or accounting rules and practices) using a valuation methodology established by Morgan Stanley. In order to comply with applicable accounting standards or the Firm’s policies in effect from
time to time, Morgan Stanley may limit the amount of shares that you may have withheld. 
  

	12.	Obligations you owe to the Firm. 


As a condition to the earning, payment, conversion or distribution of your award, the Firm may require you to pay such sum to the Firm as
may be necessary to satisfy any obligation that you owe to the Firm. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award Certificate, your award, even if vested or converted, is not earned until after such obligations and any tax withholdings or other
deductions required by law are satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Morgan Stanley may not reduce the number of shares to be delivered upon conversion of your stock units or the amount of dividend equivalents to be paid in
respect of your award or delay the payment of your award to satisfy obligations that you owe to the Firm except (i) to the extent authorized under Section 11, relating to tax and other withholding obligations or (ii) to the
extent such reduction or delay is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not cause you to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes before your stock units convert to shares of Morgan Stanley common stock or to incur
additional tax or interest under Section 409A. 
  

 11 








 Morgan Stanley’s determination of any amount that you owe the Firm shall be conclusive.
The fair market value of Morgan Stanley common stock for purposes of the foregoing provisions shall be determined using a valuation methodology established by Morgan Stanley. 

 

	13.	Nontransferability. 


You may not sell, pledge, hypothecate, assign or otherwise transfer your award, other than as provided in Section 14 (which allows
you to designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries in the event of your death) or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This prohibition includes any assignment or other transfer that purports to occur by operation of law or otherwise.
During your lifetime, payments relating to your award will be made only to you. 
 Your personal representatives, heirs,
legatees, beneficiaries, successors and assigns, and those of Morgan Stanley, shall all be bound by, and shall benefit from, the terms and conditions of your award. 
  

	14.	Designation of a beneficiary. 


You may make a written designation of beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive all or part of your award to be delivered or paid under this
Award Certificate in the event of your death. To make a beneficiary designation, you must complete and submit the Beneficiary Designation form on the Executive Compensation website at [website redacted]. 

Any shares or dividend equivalents that become deliverable upon your death, and as to which a designation of beneficiary is not in
effect, will be distributed to your estate. 
 If you previously filed a designation of beneficiary form for your equity awards
with the Executive Compensation Department, such form will also apply to all of your equity awards, including this award. You may replace or revoke your beneficiary designation at any time. If there is any question as to the legal right of any
beneficiary to receive shares or payments under this award, Morgan Stanley may determine in its sole discretion to deliver the shares or make the payments in question to your estate. Morgan Stanley’s determination shall be binding and
conclusive on all persons and it will have no further liability to anyone with respect to this award. 
  

	15.	Ownership and possession. 


(a) Before conversion. Generally, you will not have any rights as a stockholder in the shares of Morgan
Stanley common stock corresponding to your stock units unless and until your stock units convert to shares. 
 If Morgan Stanley
contributes shares of Morgan Stanley common stock corresponding to your stock units to a grantor trust it has established, you may be permitted to direct the trustee how to vote the shares in the trust corresponding to your stock units. Voting
rights, if any, are governed by the terms of the grantor trust and Morgan Stanley may amend any such voting rights, in its sole discretion, at any time. Morgan Stanley is under no obligation to

  

 12 








 
contribute shares corresponding to stock units to a trust. If Morgan Stanley elects not to contribute shares corresponding to your stock units to a trust, you will not have voting rights with
respect to shares corresponding to your stock units until your stock units convert to shares. 
 (b) Following
conversion. Subject to Section 10(c), following conversion of your stock units you will be the beneficial owner of the shares of Morgan Stanley common stock issued to you, and you will be entitled to all rights of ownership,
including voting rights and the right to receive cash or stock dividends or other distributions paid on the shares. 
 (c)
Custody of shares. Morgan Stanley may maintain possession of the shares subject to your award until such time as your shares are no longer subject to restrictions on transfer. 

 

	16.	Securities law compliance matters. 


Morgan Stanley may affix a legend to any stock certificates representing shares of Morgan Stanley common stock issued upon conversion of
your stock units (and any stock certificates that may subsequently be issued in substitution for the original certificates). The legend will read substantially as follows: 

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS STOCK CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE MORGAN STANLEY 2007 EQUITY INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN AND
ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS THEREOF AND OF AN AWARD CERTIFICATE FOR STOCK UNITS AND ANY SUPPLEMENT THERETO. 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS STOCK CERTIFICATE MAY BE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER BY VIRTUE OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933. 
 COPIES OF THE PLAN, THE AWARD CERTIFICATE FOR STOCK UNITS AND ANY SUPPLEMENT THERETO ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION DEPARTMENT. 
 Morgan Stanley may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order against such shares
if it determines that such an order is necessary or advisable. 
  

	17.	Compliance with laws and regulation.
