Pricing Supplement No. 7,749

Filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2)

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC

Structured Investments

Variable Income Memory Auto-Callable Notes due April 30, 2030

**Based on the Worst Performing of the Class A Common Stock of Palantir Technologies Inc., the Common Stock of NVIDIA Corporation, the Class A Common Stock of Affirm Holdings, Inc. and the Common Stock of Tesla, Inc.**

**Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley**

￭The notes are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC ("MSFL") and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The notes have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document.

￭**Variable coupon.** The notes will pay a variable coupon on each coupon payment date, as follows: If, on any observation date, the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level, the notes will pay the higher coupon (as well as any previously unpaid conditional coupons), at the annual rate specified herein, with respect to the related interest period. However, if the closing level of **any** underlier is **less than** its coupon barrier level on any observation date, the notes will pay only the lower coupon, at the annual rate specified herein, with respect to the related interest period.

￭**Automatic early redemption.** The notes will be automatically redeemed if the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its call threshold level on any redemption determination date for an early redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount *plus* the higher coupon with respect to the related interest period and any previously unpaid conditional coupons. No further payments will be made on the notes once they have been automatically redeemed.

￭**Payment at maturity.** If the notes have not been automatically redeemed prior to maturity, investors will receive (in addition to the applicable variable coupon with respect to the final interest period and any previously unpaid conditional coupons, if payable) the stated principal amount at maturity.

￭**The value of the notes is based on the worst performing underlier.** The fact that the notes are linked to more than one underlier does not provide any asset diversification benefits and instead means that poor performance by **any** underlier will adversely affect your return on the notes, regardless of the performance of the other underliers.

￭The notes are for investors who are concerned about principal risk and who seek the repayment of principal and an opportunity to earn interest at a potentially above-market rate in exchange for the risk of receiving no higher coupons over the entire term of the notes. You will not participate in any appreciation of any underlier. The notes are notes 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 notes 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.

| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Terms** **continued from the previous page** | &nbsp;&nbsp; **Terms** **continued from the previous page** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Variable coupon:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; A variable coupon at an annual rate of either **0.25%** (the "**lower coupon**") or **8.75%** (the "**higher coupon**") will be paid on the notes on each coupon payment date. The higher coupon (as well as any previously unpaid conditional coupons) will be paid on the notes on each coupon payment date **only if** the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date.<br> **If, on any observation date, the closing level of any underlier is less than its coupon barrier level, we will pay the lower coupon with respect to the applicable interest period.** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Conditional coupon:**  | &nbsp;&nbsp; A conditional coupon at an annual rate of **8.50%** will be paid on the notes on each coupon payment date for any prior interest periods for which the higher coupon was not paid **but only if** the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date.<br> If you receive only the lower coupon on any coupon payment date (because the closing level of **any underlier** is **less than** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date), any forgone coupon will be paid in the form of the conditional coupon on a later coupon payment date **but only if** the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date. Any such conditional coupon will be paid on the first subsequent coupon payment date for which the closing level of each underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date; provided, however, in the case of any such payment of a conditional coupon, no additional interest shall accrue or be payable in respect of such unpaid conditional coupon from and after the end of the original interest period for which the higher coupon was not paid.<br> **You will not receive payment for any unpaid conditional coupons if the closing level of any underlier is less than its coupon barrier level on each subsequent observation date.** |

Estimated Value of the Notes

The original issue price of each note is $1,000. This price includes costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the notes, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value of the notes on the pricing date is less than $1,000. Our estimate of the value of the notes as determined on the pricing date is set forth on the cover of this document.

*What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?*

In valuing the notes on the pricing date, we take into account that the notes comprise both a debt component and a performance-based component linked to the underliers. The estimated value of the notes is determined using our own pricing and valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the underliers, instruments based on the underliers, 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 notes?*

In determining the economic terms of the notes, 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 notes 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 notes?*

The price at which MS & Co. purchases the notes in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underliers, 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 notes are not fully deducted upon issuance, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the notes in the secondary market during the amortization period specified herein, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underliers, 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 notes, and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time.

Hypothetical Examples

The following hypothetical examples illustrate how to determine whether the notes will be automatically redeemed with respect to a redemption determination date and whether the lower coupon or the higher coupon is payable with respect to an observation date. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether the notes are automatically redeemed prior to maturity will be determined by reference to the closing level of each underlier on each redemption determination date. Whether you receive the lower coupon or the higher coupon will be determined by reference to the closing level of each underlier on each observation date. The actual initial level, call threshold level and coupon barrier level for each underlier were determined on the strike date. All payments on the notes are subject to our credit risk. The numbers in the hypothetical examples below may have been rounded for ease of analysis. The below examples are based on the following terms:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Stated principal amount:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; $1,000 per note |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Hypothetical initial level:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to the PLTR Stock, $100.00\*<br> With respect to the NVDA Stock, $100.00\*<br> With respect to the AFRM Stock, $100.00\*<br> With respect to the TSLA Stock, $100.00\* |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Hypothetical call threshold level:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to the PLTR Stock, $90.00, which is 90% of its hypothetical initial level<br> With respect to the NVDA Stock, $90.00, which is 90% of its hypothetical initial level<br> With respect to the AFRM Stock, $90.00, which is 90% of its hypothetical initial level<br> With respect to the TSLA Stock, $90.00, which is 90% of its hypothetical initial level |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Hypothetical coupon barrier level:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to the PLTR Stock, $80.00, which is 80% of its hypothetical initial level<br> With respect to the NVDA Stock, $80.00, which is 80% of its hypothetical initial level<br> With respect to the AFRM Stock, $80.00, which is 80% of its hypothetical initial level<br> With respect to the TSLA Stock, $80.00, which is 80% of its hypothetical initial level |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Lower coupon:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; 0.25% per annum (corresponding to approximately $0.208 per interest period per note). The actual lower coupon will be an amount determined by the calculation agent based on the number of days in the applicable payment period, calculated on a 30/360 day-count basis. The hypothetical lower coupon of $0.208 is used in these examples for ease of analysis. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Higher coupon:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; 8.75% per annum (corresponding to approximately $7.292 per interest period per note). The actual higher coupon will be an amount determined by the calculation agent based on the number of days in the applicable payment period, calculated on a 30/360 day-count basis. The hypothetical higher coupon of $7.292 is used in these examples for ease of analysis. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Conditional coupon:**  | &nbsp;&nbsp; 8.50% per annum (corresponding to approximately $7.083 per interest period per note). The actual conditional coupon will be an amount determined by the calculation agent based on the number of days in the applicable payment period, calculated on a 30/360 day-count basis. The hypothetical conditional coupon of $7.083 is used in these examples for ease of analysis.<br> If you receive only the lower coupon on any coupon payment date (because the closing level of **any underlier** is **less than** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date), any forgone coupon will be paid in the form of the conditional coupon on a later coupon payment date **but only if** the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date. Any such conditional coupon will be paid on the first subsequent coupon payment date for which the closing level of each underlier is **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on the related observation date. |

---

\*The hypothetical initial level of $100.00 for each underlier has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the actual initial level of any underlier. Please see "Historical Information" below for historical data regarding the actual closing levels of the underliers.

On hypothetical redemption determination date #1, because the closing level of **at least** one underlier is **less than** its call threshold level, the notes are not automatically redeemed on the related early redemption date.

On hypothetical redemption determination date #2, because the closing level of **each** underlier is **greater than or equal to** its call threshold level, the notes are automatically redeemed on the related early redemption date for an early redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount *plus* the higher coupon with respect to the related interest period and any previously unpaid conditional coupons. No further payments are made on the notes once they have been automatically redeemed.

**If the closing level of any underlier is less than its call threshold level on each redemption determination date, the notes will not be automatically redeemed prior to maturity.**

Risk Factors

*This section describes the material risks relating to the notes. 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 notes.*

<u>Risks Relating to an Investment in the</u> <u>Notes</u>

￭**The amount of each coupon payment is based on the closing levels of the underliers on only the related observation date at the end of the related interest period.** Whether the lower coupon, the higher coupon or any previously unpaid conditional coupons will be paid on any coupon payment date will be determined at the end of the related interest period based on the closing level of each underlier on the related observation date. As a result, you will not know whether you will receive the lower coupon, the higher coupon or any previously unpaid conditional coupons on a coupon payment date until near the end of the relevant interest period. Moreover, because the amount of each coupon payment is based solely on the closing levels of the underliers on the observation dates, if the closing level of **any** underlier on any observation date is **less than** its coupon barrier level, you will not receive the higher coupon with respect to the related interest period or any previously unpaid conditional coupons with respect to any prior interest periods for which the higher coupon was not paid, even if the closing level of such underlier was **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on other days during that interest period and even if the closing levels of the other underliers are **greater than or equal to** their coupon barrier levels on such observation date. If the closing level of **any** underlier is **less than** its coupon barrier level on any observation date, you will not receive the higher coupon with respect to the related interest period or any previously unpaid conditional coupons with respect to any prior interest periods for which the higher coupon was not paid, and you will instead receive only the lower coupon with respect to the related interest period.

￭**Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the value of any underlier.** Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the value of any underlier from the strike date to the final observation date, and the return on the notes will be limited to the variable coupons that are paid on the coupon payment dates. It is possible that the closing level of an underlier will remain below its coupon barrier level for extended periods of time or even throughout the entire term of the notes so that you will receive few or no higher coupons.

￭**The notes are subject to early redemption risk.** The term of your investment in the notes may be shortened due to the automatic early redemption feature of the notes. If the notes are automatically redeemed prior to maturity, you will receive no further payments on the notes, may be forced to invest in a lower interest rate environment and may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns. However, under no circumstances will the notes be redeemed prior to the first redemption determination date.

￭**The market price of the notes may be influenced by many unpredictable factors.** Several factors, many of which are beyond our control, will influence the value of the notes in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to purchase or sell the notes in the secondary market. We expect that generally the value of each underlier at any time will affect the value of the notes more than any other single factor. Other factors that may influence the value of the notes include:

othe volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the underliers;

ointerest and yield rates in the market;

odividend rates on the underliers;

othe level of correlation between the underliers;

ogeopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underliers or equity markets generally;

othe availability of comparable instruments;

othe occurrence of certain events affecting the underliers that may or may not require an adjustment to an adjustment factor;

othe time remaining until the notes mature; and

oany actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads.

Some or all of these factors will influence the price that you will receive if you sell your notes prior to maturity. Generally, the longer the time remaining to maturity, the more the market price of the notes will be affected by the other factors described above. For example, you may have to sell your notes at a substantial discount from the stated principal amount if, at the time of sale, the closing level of any underlier is at, below or not sufficiently above its coupon barrier level, or if market interest rates rise.

You can review the historical closing levels of the underliers in the section of this document called "Historical Information." You cannot predict the future performance of an underlier based on its historical performance. The values of the underliers may be, and have recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. There can be no assurance that the closing level of **each** underlier will be **greater than or equal to** its coupon barrier level on any observation date so that you will receive the higher coupon with respect to the applicable interest period.

<br> <u> Variable Income Memory Auto-Callable Notes </u>

￭**The notes 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 notes.** You are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the notes, and, therefore, you are subject to our credit risk. The notes are not guaranteed by any other entity. If we default on our obligations under the notes, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the notes 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 notes.

￭**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.

￭**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 notes in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the notes, cause the estimated value of the notes 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 notes 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 notes in the original issue price and the lower rate we are willing to pay as issuer make the economic terms of the notes less favorable to you than they otherwise would be.

However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the notes are not fully deducted upon issuance, to the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the notes in the secondary market during the amortization period specified herein, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the underliers, 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 notes 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 notes than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to value the notes. 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 notes in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your notes 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 of the notes may be influenced by many unpredictable factors" above.

￭**The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited.** The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the notes. MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the notes 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 notes, 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 notes. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Since other broker-dealers may not participate significantly in the secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes 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 notes, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the notes. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your notes to maturity.

￭As discussed in more detail in the accompanying product supplement, investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the underlier(s).

Morgan Stanley Finance LLC

<br> <u> Variable Income Memory Auto-Callable Notes </u>

￭**You may be required to recognize taxable income on the notes prior to maturity.** If you are a U.S. investor in a note, under the treatment of a note as a contingent payment debt instrument, you will generally be required to recognize taxable interest income in each year that you hold the note. In addition, any gain you recognize under the rules applicable to contingent payment debt instruments will generally be treated as ordinary interest income rather than capital gain. You should review carefully the section entitled "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" herein, in combination with the section entitled "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement, and consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes.

<u>Risks Relating to the Underlier(s)</u>

￭Because your return on the notes will depend upon the performance of the underlier(s), the notes are subject to the following risk(s), as discussed in more detail in the accompanying product supplement.

oYou are exposed to the price risk of each underlier.

oWe have no affiliation with any underlying stock issuer.

oWe may engage in business with or involving any underlying stock issuer without regard to your interests.

oThe anti-dilution adjustments the calculation agent is required to make do not cover every corporate event that could affect an underlying stock.

￭**Because the notes are linked to the performance of the worst performing underlier, you are exposed to a greater risk of receiving only the lower coupon on the coupon payment dates than if the notes were linked to just one underlier.** The risk that you will receive only the lower coupon on any coupon payment date is greater if you invest in the notes as opposed to similar notes that are linked to the performance of just one underlier. With more than one underlier, it is more likely that any underlier will perform in a manner that adversely affects the value of the notes than if the notes were linked to only one underlier. Therefore, it is more likely that you will not receive the higher coupon (as well as any previously unpaid conditional coupons), and instead receive only the lower coupon, on any or all of the coupon payment dates.

<u>Risks Relating to Conflicts of Interest</u>

*In engaging in certain activities described below and as discussed in more detail in the accompanying product supplement, our affiliates may take actions that may adversely affect the value of and your return on the notes, and in so doing they will have no obligation to consider your interests as an investor in the notes.*

￭**The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make determinations with respect to the notes.** As calculation agent, MS & Co. will make any determinations necessary to calculate any payment(s) on the notes. Moreover, certain determinations made by MS & Co., in its capacity as calculation agent, may require it to exercise discretion and make subjective judgments, which may adversely affect your return on the notes. In addition, MS & Co. has determined the estimated value of the notes on the pricing date.

￭Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates could potentially adversely affect the value of the notes.

Additional Information About the Notes

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Additional Information:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; **Additional Information:** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Minimum ticketing size:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; $1,000 / 1 note |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **United States federal income tax considerations:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; You should review carefully the section in the accompanying product supplement entitled "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations." The following discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, regarding the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of the notes.<br> Generally, this discussion assumes that you purchased the notes for cash in the original issuance at the stated issue price and does not address other circumstances specific to you, including consequences that may arise due to any other investments relating to an underlier. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the effect any such circumstances may have on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your ownership of a note.<br> The notes should be treated as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Based on current market conditions, we intend to treat the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as contingent payment debt instruments, or "CPDIs," as described in "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Notes Treated as Contingent Payment Debt Instruments" in the accompanying product supplement. Under this treatment, regardless of your method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you generally will be required to accrue interest income in each year on a constant yield to maturity basis at the "comparable yield," as determined by us, adjusted upward or downward to reflect the difference, if any, between the actual and projected payments on the notes during the year. Upon a taxable disposition of a note, you generally will recognize taxable income or loss equal to the difference between the amount received and your tax basis in the notes. You generally must treat any income realized as interest income and any loss as ordinary loss to the extent of previous interest inclusions, and the balance as capital loss, the deductibility of which is subject to limitations. <br> After the original issue date, you may obtain the comparable yield and the projected payment schedule by requesting them from Morgan Stanley at StructuredNotesTaxInfo@morganstanley.com. <br> **Neither the comparable yield nor the projected payment schedule constitutes a representation by us regarding the actual amount(s) that we will pay on the notes.**<br> **Non-U.S. Holders.** If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, please also read the section entitled "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders" in the accompanying product supplement.<br> As discussed under "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders—Dividend Equivalents under Section 871(m) of the Code" in the accompanying product supplement, Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder ("Section 871(m)") generally impose a 30% 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. The Treasury regulations, as modified by an IRS notice, exempt financial instruments issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a "delta" of one. Based on certain representations made by us, our counsel is of the opinion that Section 871(m) should not apply to the notes with respect to Non-U.S. Holders. Our determination is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this determination.<br> We will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to U.S. federal withholding taxes.<br> You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Additional considerations:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; 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 notes, either directly or indirectly. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; Selected dealers and their financial advisors will collectively receive from the agent, MS & Co., a fixed sales commission of $38.50 for each note they sell.<br> 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 notes. <br> 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  |

| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Validity of the notes:** | &nbsp;&nbsp; In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special counsel to MSFL and Morgan Stanley, when the notes 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 notes 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.
