MORGAN STANLEY COMPENSATION INCENTIVE PLAN 

DEFERRED BONUS PROGRAM 

[YEAR] DISCRETIONARY RETENTION AWARDS 

AWARD CERTIFICATE 

Morgan Stanley has granted you an award under the [year] Deferred Bonus Program (“DBP Award”) of the Morgan Stanley
Compensation Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as part of your discretionary 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] DBP Award under the Plan. The initial value of your [year] DBP 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] DBP Award. You should read this Award Certificate in conjunction with the International Supplement, if applicable, and the Plan in order to understand the terms and conditions of your [year] DBP
Award. 
 Your [year] DBP Award is made pursuant to the Plan. References to Applicable Account Value in this Award Certificate mean only the
Applicable Account Value related to your [year] DBP Award, and the terms and conditions herein apply only to such award. If you receive any other award under the Plan or another incentive compensation plan, it will be governed by the terms and
conditions of the applicable award documentation, which may be different from those herein. 
 The purposes of the [year] DBP Award are,
among other things, to facilitate the allocation of a portion of your discretionary above-base compensation for [year] to the notional investment opportunities afforded by the Plan, 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] DBP 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 9(c) below and (3) satisfy obligations you owe to the Firm as
set forth in Section 11 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 9(c) below. As Morgan Stanley deems appropriate, Morgan Stanley
will require you to provide a written certification or other evidence, 

  
 2 

 
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 Distribution Date thereafter. If you fail to 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 18 below. Capitalized terms used in this Award Certificate that are not defined in the text or in Section 18 below have the meanings set forth in the Plan. 
  

	1.	Your award generally. 

 (a) Applicable Account Value. This
Award Certificate uses the term “Applicable Account Value” to refer to your [year] DBP Award under the Plan and the notional return (positive or negative) thereon based on the performance of the Notional Investments to which your Account
is notionally allocated. If you receive another award under the Plan (for example, an award for a future year), your total Account Value under the Plan will include the Applicable Account Value of your [year] DBP Award and the applicable Account
Value of such other award(s). 
 (b) Notional allocation of Account. The notional allocation of your Applicable Account
Value is subject to the ultimate discretion of the Firm and is made exclusively for the purpose of determining your Applicable Account Value from time to time in accordance with the Plan. You may notionally allocate your Applicable Account Value to
any one fund, or any combination of funds, offered as Notional Investments under the Plan with respect to your [year] DBP Award. 
  

	2.	Vesting schedule and payment. 

 (a) Vesting schedule. Except
as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, your Applicable Account Value will vest according to the following schedule: (i) 25% of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the First Scheduled Vesting Date; (ii) one-third of the
remaining portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the Second Scheduled Vesting Date; (iii) 50% of the remaining portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the Third Scheduled Vesting Date and (iv) the remaining
portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the Fourth Scheduled Vesting Date.1 Except as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, each portion of your Applicable Account Value 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 4, 5, 6 and 7 of this Award Certificate apply (i) if your Employment terminates by reason of your death or Disability, (ii) upon your 

 

	1 	 The vesting schedule and related vesting dates presented in this form of Award Certificate are indicative. The vesting schedule and related vesting
dates applicable to awards may vary. 

  
 3 

 
Full Career Retirement, (iii) if the Firm terminates your employment in an involuntary termination under the circumstances described in Section 5, (iv) upon a Governmental Service
Termination or (v) upon a Qualifying Termination. The vested portion of your Applicable Account Value remains subject to the cancellation and withholding provisions set forth in this Award Certificate. 

(b) Payment. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, (i) 25% of your Applicable Account Value
will, to the extent vested, be paid in cash on the First Scheduled Distribution Date; (ii) one-third of the remaining portion of your Applicable Account Value will, to the extent vested, be paid in cash on the Second Scheduled Distribution
Date; (iii) 50% of the remaining portion of your Applicable Account Value will, to the extent vested, be paid in cash on the Third Scheduled Distribution Date and (iv) the remaining portion of your Applicable Account Value will, to the
extent vested, be paid in cash on the Fourth Scheduled Distribution Date; provided that, subject to Section 2(d), your Applicable Account Value may be paid to you following the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date on the next
administratively practicable payroll date.2 The special payment provisions set forth in Sections 4(a), 4(b), 6 and 7 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 6(b) or (iii) upon a Qualifying Termination. All payments are subject to applicable withholdings and deductions. 

Each portion of your Applicable Account Value scheduled to be paid on the First, Second, Third and Fourth Scheduled Distribution Dates, as
applicable, is deemed to be a separate payment for all purposes, including for purposes of Section 409A, and the portion of your Applicable Account Value scheduled to be paid on the First Scheduled Distribution Date and the Second Scheduled
Distribution Date is not “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A.3 

(c) Accelerated payment. Morgan Stanley shall have no right to accelerate the payment of any portion of your
Applicable Account Value, 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 prior to the distribution of
your Applicable Account Value or your incurring additional tax or interest under Section 409A. If any portion of your Applicable Account Value is paid prior to the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date pursuant to this Section 2(c),
Morgan Stanley may condition such payment on your agreement that if you engage in any activity constituting a cancellation event set forth in Section 9(c) within the applicable period of time that would have resulted in cancellation of all or a
portion of your Applicable Account Value (had it not been paid pursuant to this Section 2(c)), you will be required to repay to Morgan Stanley an amount equal to the payment you received 

 

	2 	The payment schedule and related payment dates presented in this form of Award Certificate are indicative. The payment schedule and related payment dates applicable to awards may vary. 

	3 	 Provision may not be applicable to awards granted to employees designated as Code Staff.

  
 4 

 
(before taking account of any withholding) in respect of the portion of your Applicable Account Value that would have been canceled upon the occurrence of such cancellation event, plus interest
on such amount at the average rate of interest Morgan Stanley paid to borrow money from financial institutions during the period from the date such portion of your Applicable Account Value was paid through the date preceding the repayment date. 

(d) Rule of construction for timing of payment. Whenever this Award Certificate provides for all or a portion of
your Applicable Account Value to be paid on a Scheduled Distribution Date or upon a different specified event or date, such 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 the payment of your Applicable Account Value, 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 payment is
made by December 31 of the year in which occurs the applicable Scheduled Distribution 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 payment of
your Applicable Account Value pursuant to Section 2(c). 
  

	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 payment of the vested portion of your Applicable Account Value 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 payment of your Applicable Account Value to the extent nondeductible, unless the
Administrator, in its sole discretion, determines not to delay such 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 payment in the event of your death as described below). 
  

	4.	Death, Disability and Full Career Retirement. 

 The following special vesting and
payment terms apply to your award: 
 (a) Death during Employment. If your Employment terminates due to death,
any unvested portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the date of your death. Your Applicable Account Value will be paid to the beneficiary you have designated pursuant to Section 12 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 9(c) will no longer apply. 

(b) Death after termination of Employment. If you die after the termination of your Employment but prior to the
applicable Scheduled Distribution Date, the vested portion 

  
 5 

 
of your Applicable Account Value that you held at the time of your death will be paid to the beneficiary you have designated pursuant to Section 12 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 9(c) will no longer
apply. 
 (c) Disability or Full Career Retirement. If your Employment terminates due to Disability or in a Full
Career Retirement, any unvested portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the date your Employment terminates. Your Applicable Account Value will be paid on the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date. The cancellation and withholding
provisions set forth in this Award Certificate will continue to apply until the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date. 
  

	5.	Involuntary termination by the Firm. 

 If the Firm terminates your employment
under circumstances not involving any cancellation event set forth in Section 9(c), the unvested portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the date your employment with the Firm terminates and your Applicable Account Value will be
paid on the applicable Scheduled Distribution 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 5, any portion of your Applicable Account Value that was 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 Distribution Date. 
  

	6.	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 9(c), then, provided that you sign an agreement satisfactory
to the Firm relating to your obligations pursuant to Section 6(c), any unvested portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest on the date of your Governmental Service Termination. Your vested Applicable Account Value will be paid 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 9(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 6(c), the vested portion of your
Applicable Account Value will be paid 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 your
Applicable Account Value 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. 

  
 6 

 (c) Repayment obligation. If any activity or event constituting a
cancellation event set forth in Section 9(c) occurs within the applicable period of time that would have resulted in cancellation of all or a portion of your Applicable Account Value had it not been paid pursuant to Sections 6(a) or 6(b) above
(disregarding, for purposes of determining whether a cancellation event has occurred, any Full Career Retirement condition set forth in Section 9(c)(1)), you will be required to repay to Morgan Stanley the amount distributed to you pursuant to
Sections 6(a) or 6(b) above that would have been canceled upon the occurrence of such cancellation event (before taking account of any withholding), plus interest on such amount at the average rate of interest Morgan Stanley paid to borrow money
from financial institutions during the period from the date of such payment through the date preceding the repayment date. 
  

	7.	Qualifying Termination. 

 If your employment terminates in a Qualifying
Termination, any unvested portion of your Applicable Account Value will vest, cancellation provisions will lapse, and, subject to Section 8, your Applicable Account Value will be paid upon your Qualifying Termination. 

 

	8.	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, payment of the portion of your Applicable Account Value that is “nonqualified deferred
compensation” for purposes of Section 409A that would otherwise be made upon your Separation from Service (including, without limitation, any payments that were delayed due to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as provided
in Section 3, and any portion of your Applicable Account Value payable upon your Qualifying Termination, as provided in Section 7) 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 6(b) occurs at any time after the Date of the Award, payment will be made in accordance with Section 4(a), 4(b) or 6, as applicable. 
  

	9.	Cancellation of Applicable Account Value under certain circumstances. 

 (a)
Cancellation of unvested Applicable Account Value. Any unvested portion of your Applicable Account Value 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 5, a Governmental Service Termination or a Qualifying Termination. 

(b) General treatment of vested Applicable Account Value. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Certificate, the
vested portion of your Applicable Account Value will be paid on the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date. The cancellation and withholding provisions set forth in this Award Certificate will continue to apply until the applicable Scheduled
Distribution Date. 

  
 7 

 (c) Cancellation of Applicable Account Value under certain circumstances.4 The cancellation events set forth in this Section 9(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 9(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 9(c) no longer apply).

 Your Applicable Account Value, even if vested, is not earned until the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date (and until you satisfy all
obligations you owe to the Firm as set forth in Section 11 below) and, unless prohibited by applicable law, will be canceled prior to the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date in any of the circumstances set forth below in this
Section 9(c). The Firm may retain custody of your Applicable Account Value following a Scheduled Distribution Date pending any investigation or other review that impacts the determination as to whether your Applicable Account Value is
cancellable under the circumstances set forth below and, in such an instance, your Applicable Account Value shall be forfeited in the event the Firm determines that the Applicable Account Value was cancellable. 

(1) Competitive Activity. If you resign and the resulting termination satisfies the definition of a Full Career
Retirement and you engage in Competitive Activity, the following shall apply, subject to applicable law: 
 (i) If your
Competitive Activity occurs before the First Scheduled Distribution Date, then your entire Applicable Account Value will be canceled immediately; and 

(ii) If your Competitive Activity occurs on or after the First Scheduled Distribution Date but before another Scheduled
Distribution Date, then the remaining portion of your Applicable Account Value that is scheduled to be paid on or following such Scheduled Distribution Date will be canceled immediately. 

(2) Other Events. If any of the following events occur at any time before the applicable Scheduled Distribution
Date, your entire Applicable Account Value (whether or not vested) 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 Distribution Date); 
  

	4 	The cancellation provisions presented in Section 9(c) of this form of Award Certificate and any corresponding definitions are indicative. The cancellation provisions and corresponding definitions applicable to
awards may vary. 

  
 8 

 (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”); 

(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
consistent with the notice period requirements undertaken by you in connection with your employment offer letter, Sign-On or Notice & Non-Solicitation Agreement or any other contractual obligation in connection with the terms and conditions
of your employment, or, in the event no such prior contractual notice period requirements exist, you resign from your employment with the Firm without having provided the Firm prior written notice of your resignation of at least thirty
(30) days. 
 (3) Clawback Cancellation Events.5 

(i) Your entire Applicable Account Value (whether or not vested) will be canceled in full, or in the case of clause
(C) below, in full or in part, subject to applicable law, if at any time before the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date you take any action, or you fail to take any action (including with respect to direct supervisory responsibilities),
where such action or omission: 
  

	 	(A)	causes a restatement of the Firm’s consolidated financial results; 

  

	5 	Certain awards granted to employees designated as Code Staff may also provide that a participant’s Applicable Account Value (whether or not vested) will be canceled in full, subject to applicable law, if at any
time before the applicable Scheduled Distribution Date, the Firm and/or relevant business unit suffers a material downturn in its financial performance or the Firm and/or relevant business unit suffers a material failure of risk management.

  
 9 

	 	(B)	constitutes a violation by you of the Firm’s Global Risk Management Principles, Policies and Standards (where prior authorization and approval of appropriate senior management was not obtained) whether such action
results in a favorable or unfavorable impact to the Firm’s consolidated financial results; or 

  

	 	(C)	causes a loss in the current year on a trade or transaction originating in the current year or in any prior year for which revenue was recognized and which was a factor in your award determination, and violated internal
control policies that resulted from your: 

 (i) violation of business unit, product or desk specific risk parameters; 

(ii) use of an incorrect valuation model, method, or inputs for transactions subject to the “STAR” approval process; 

(iii) failure to perform appropriate due diligence prior to a trade or transaction or failure to provide critical information known at the
time of the transaction that might negatively affect the valuation of the transaction; or 
 (iv) failure to timely monitor or escalate to
management a loss position pursuant to applicable policies and procedures. 
 In the event that the Firm determines, in its sole discretion,
that your action or omission is as described in clause (C) and you do not engage in any other cancellation or clawback event described in this Section 9(c), your [year] DBP Award will be reduced by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
amount of the pre-tax loss, and the denominator of which is the total revenue originally recognized by the Firm which was a factor in your award determination. 

(ii) With respect to members of the Morgan Stanley Operating Committee as of [December 31st of the year in respect of which the award is made], the Compensation Committee may cancel your entire Applicable Account Value (whether or not vested), in full or in part, if the Compensation
Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that at any time before the 

  
 10 

 
applicable Scheduled Distribution Date you had significant responsibility for a material adverse outcome for the Firm or any of its businesses or functions. The Compensation Committee shall have
the sole authority to interpret this provision and its determinations shall be final and binding on all persons. 
  

	10.	Tax and other withholding obligations. 

 Any vesting, whether on a Scheduled
Vesting Date or some other date, of all or a portion of your Applicable Account Value, and any payment of all or a portion of your Applicable Account Value 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 your Applicable Account Value in an amount not to exceed such taxes imposed upon such vesting or distribution 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 payment of your Applicable Account Value. However, the Firm may not deduct or withhold such sum from any payroll or any other payment or compensation (including from your Applicable Account Value), 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 prior to the distribution of your Applicable Account Value or to incur interest or additional tax under
Section 409A. 
  

	11.	Obligations you owe to the Firm. 

 As a condition to the earning, payment 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, 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 amount of your Applicable Account Value to be distributed to
satisfy obligations that you owe to the Firm except (i) to the extent authorized under Section 10, relating to tax and other withholding obligations or, otherwise, (ii) to the extent such reduction is not prohibited by
Section 409A and would not cause you to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes prior to the distribution of your Applicable Account Value or to incur additional tax or interest under Section 409A. Morgan
Stanley’s determination of any amount that you owe the Firm shall be conclusive. 
  

	12.	Nontransferability. 

 You may not sell, pledge, hypothecate, assign or otherwise
transfer your Applicable Account Value, other than as provided in Section 13 (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 Applicable Account Value will be made only to you. 

  
 11 

 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. 
  

	13.	Designation of a beneficiary. 

 You may make a written designation of beneficiary
or beneficiaries to receive all or part of the amounts to be distributed in respect of your Applicable Account Value 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. 
 Any portion of your Applicable Account Value that becomes payable 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 award(s) under the Plan with the Executive Compensation Department, such form will also apply to all of your awards under the Plan, including this [year] DBP 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 your Applicable Account Value, Morgan Stanley may determine in its sole discretion to distribute the amounts 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 such amounts. 
  

	14.	No entitlements. 

 (a) No right to continued
Employment. This [year] DBP Award is not an employment agreement, and nothing in this Award Certificate, the International Supplement, if applicable, or the Plan shall alter your status as an “at-will” employee of the Firm
or your employment status at a Related Employer. None of this Award Certificate, the International Supplement, if applicable, or the Plan shall be construed as guaranteeing your employment by the Firm or a Related Employer, or as giving you any
right to continue in the employ of the Firm or a Related Employer, during any period (including without limitation the period between the Date of the Award and any Scheduled Vesting Date or Scheduled Distribution Date, or any portion of any of these
periods), nor shall they be construed as giving you any right to be reemployed by the Firm or a Related Employer following any termination of Employment. 

(b) No right to future awards. This award, and all other awards under the Plan, are discretionary. This award does
not confer on you any right or entitlement to receive another award under the Plan or any other award under any other incentive compensation plan of Morgan Stanley at any time in the future or in respect of any future period. 

(c) No effect on future employment compensation. Morgan Stanley has made this award to you in its sole discretion. This
award does not confer on you any right or 

  
 12 

 
entitlement to receive compensation in any specific amount for any future year, and does not diminish in any way the Firm’s discretion to determine the amount, if any, of your compensation.
This award is not part of your base salary or wages and will not be taken into account in determining any other employment-related rights you may have, such as rights to pension or severance pay. 

 

	15.	Consents under local law. 

 Your award is conditioned upon the making of all
filings and the receipt of all consents or authorizations required to comply with, or required to be obtained under, applicable local law. 
  

	16.	Award modification. 

 Morgan Stanley reserves the right to modify or amend
unilaterally the terms and conditions of your award, without first asking your consent, or to waive any terms and conditions that operate in favor of Morgan Stanley. These amendments may include (but are not limited to) changes that Morgan Stanley
considers necessary or advisable as a result of changes in any, or the adoption of any new, Legal Requirement. Morgan Stanley may not modify your award in a manner that would materially impair your rights in your award without your consent;
provided, however, that Morgan Stanley may, but is not required to, without your consent, amend or modify your award in any manner that Morgan Stanley considers necessary or advisable to (i) comply with any Legal Requirement,
(ii) ensure that your award does not result in an excise or other supplemental tax on the Firm under any Legal Requirement, or (iii) ensure that your award is not subject to United States federal, state or local income tax or any
equivalent taxes in territories outside the United States prior to payment or distribution. Morgan Stanley will notify you of any amendment of your award that affects your rights. Any amendment or waiver of a provision of this Award Certificate
(other than any amendment or waiver applicable to all recipients generally), which amendment or waiver operates in your favor or confers a benefit on you, must be in writing and signed by the Chief Human Resources Officer or the Chief Operating
Officer (or if such positions no longer exist, by the holder of an equivalent position) to be effective. 
  

	17.	Governing law. 

 This Award Certificate and the related legal relations between
you and Morgan Stanley will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to any conflicts or choice of law, rule or principle that might otherwise refer the interpretation of the award to the
substantive law of another jurisdiction.
