The issuer has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, the issuer, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling toll-free 1-800-584-6837.

**Underlying Commodity**

For more information about the underlying commodity, including historical performance information, see the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.

**Risk Considerations**

The risks set forth below are discussed in more detail in the "Risk Factors" section in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. Please review those risk factors carefully prior to making an investment decision.

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

● The securities do not pay interest or guarantee return of any principal at maturity.

● The appreciation potential is fixed and limited.

● You will lose the benefit of the fixed percentage return if the downside threshold value is breached on the valuation date.

● The securities are subject to our credit risk, and any actual or anticipated changes to our credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the securities.

● As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent operations and will have no independent assets.

● The amount payable on the securities is not linked to the value of the underlying commodity at any time other than the valuation date.

● The market price of the securities may be influenced by many unpredictable factors.

● Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying commodity or in futures contracts or forward contracts on the underlying commodity.

● The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited.

● Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates could potentially adversely affect the value of the 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 securities in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the securities, cause the estimated value of the securities to be less than the original issue price and will adversely affect secondary market prices.

● The estimated value of the securities is approximately $958.20 per security, or within $48.20 of that estimate, and 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.

● The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make determinations with respect to the securities.

● The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain.

<u>Risks Relating to the</u> <u>Underlying Commodity</u>

● Single commodity prices tend to be more volatile than, and may not correlate with, the prices of commodities generally.

● Investments linked to a single commodity are subject to sharp fluctuations in commodity prices, and the price of WTI crude oil may change unpredictably and affect the value of the securities in unforeseeable ways.

● An investment linked to commodity futures contracts is not equivalent to an investment linked to the spot prices of physical commodities.

● Differences between futures prices and the spot price of WTI crude oil may decrease the amount payable at maturity.

● Suspension or disruptions of market trading in WTI crude oil futures contracts may adversely affect the value of the securities.

● Legal and regulatory changes could adversely affect the return on and value of the securities.

**Tax Considerations**

You should review carefully the discussion in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement under the caption "General Information—Tax considerations" concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, and you should consult your tax adviser.
