I. INTRODUCTION³

A. General

The Morgan Stanley Investment Management (“MSIM”) Public Side Code of Ethics (the “Code”) is reasonably designed to prevent legal, business and ethical conflicts, to guard against the misuse of confidential information, and to avoid even the appearance of impropriety that may arise in connection with your personal trading and outside activities as an MSIM employee. It is very important for you to read the “Definitions” section below to understand the scope of this Code, including the individuals, accounts, securities and transactions it covers. You are required to acknowledge receipt and your understanding of this Code at the start of your employment at MSIM or when you become a Covered Person, as defined below, and annually thereafter.

B. Standards of Business Conduct

MSIM seeks to comply with the Federal securities laws and regulations applicable to its business. The Code is designed to assist you in fulfilling your regulatory and fiduciary duties as an MSIM employee as they relate to your personal securities transactions.

➣ Fiduciary Duties.    As an MSIM employee, you owe a fiduciary duty to MSIM’s Clients. This means that in every decision relating to personal investments, you must recognize the needs and interests of Clients and place those ahead of any personal interest or interest of the Firm.

➣ Personal Securities Transactions and Relationship to MSIM’s Clients.    MSIM generally prohibits you from engaging in personal trading in a manner that would distract you from your daily responsibilities. MSIM strongly encourages you to invest for the long term and discourages short-term, speculative trading. You are cautioned that short-term strategies may attract a higher level of regulatory and other scrutiny. Excessive or inappropriate trading that interferes with job performance or that compromises the duty that MSIM owes to its Clients will not be tolerated.

If you become aware that you or someone else may have violated any aspect of this Code, you must report the suspected violation to Compliance, or your Designated Manager immediately.

C. Overview of Code Requirements

Compliance with the Code is a matter of understanding its basic requirements and making sure the steps you take regarding activities covered by the Code are in accordance with the letter and spirit of the Code. Generally, you have the following obligations:

³ This Code is intended to fulfill MSIM’s requirements under Rule 204A-1 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”) and Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Company Act”). Note that there is a separate Code of Ethics for the Morgan Stanley mutual fund family.

3

Activity	Code Requirements
Employee Securities Account(s)	Pre-clearance, Reporting
Personal Trading Reporting	Pre-clearance, Holding, Reporting

In addition to the above, you may also be subject to similar fit & proper/conduct related requirements to the extent you are employed or licensed in non-US jurisdictions. Please reach out to your Compliance coverage if you are unclear about the requirements that apply to you.

II. TYPES OF ACCOUNTS/ACCOUNT OPENING REQUIREMENTS

A.    Employee Securities Accounts

Generally, you must maintain all Employee Securities Accounts that may invest in Covered Securities at a Morgan Stanley Broker or a Firm-approved third party broker.

Requirements may vary in non-U.S. offices. New MSIM employees or newly designated Covered Persons must disclose their account(s) within 30 calendar days of hire and transfer their Employee Securities Account(s) to a Morgan Stanley Broker/Firm-approved third party broker as applicable in non-US jurisdictions, at their own expense, as soon as practicable (generally within 60 calendar days of becoming a Covered Person). Failure to do so is considered a significant violation of this Code.

Opening a Morgan Stanley Brokerage Account. When opening an account, you must notify the Morgan Stanley Broker that you are an Employee and that your account must be coded as an employee or employee-related account.

B.    Fully Managed Account*

You may open a Fully Managed Account if the account meets the standards set forth below. In certain circumstances and with approval from Compliance, you may appoint non-Morgan Stanley managers (e.g., trust companies, banks or registered investment advisers) to manage your account.

9

In order to establish a Fully Managed Account, you must grant the manager complete investment discretion over your account. Pre-clearance is not required for trades in this account; however, you may not participate, directly or indirectly, in individual investment decisions or be made aware of such decisions before transactions are executed. This restriction does not preclude you from establishing investment guidelines for the manager, such as indicating industries in which you desire to invest, the types of securities you want to purchase or your overall investment objectives. However, those guidelines may not be changed so frequently as to give the appearance that you are actually directing account investments.    To the extent that you become aware of a proposed transaction by the manager in these types of accounts or have personally directed or asked another person to direct trades in these accounts, you are required to pre-clear the transaction prior to execution of the trade by the manager. If the account is managed by a Firm other than Morgan Stanley, you must submit a request in the Outside Business Interests System (the “OBI System”) and arrange for duplicate copies of statements to be sent to Compliance.

Annually, MSIM employees and Covered Consultants will be required to attest that they have not made, directly or indirectly, any individual investment decision related to such managed account(s), nor have they directed another person to make such investments without first pre-clearing those transactions in accordance with Section III.

*Pursuant to local regulation, employees of MSIM Private Limited and IM Public Side employees of the Global In-house Centers as listed in Schedule B are prohibited from opening fully managed accounts.

C.    Other Morgan Stanley Sponsored Accounts⁶

You do not have to pre-clear participation in Morgan Stanley Sponsored Accounts with Compliance. However, you must disclose participation in any of these plans as part of the quarterly reporting process upon initial participation, and in annual certifications.

Examples of Morgan Stanley Sponsored Accounts include, but are not limited to, the following:

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) (no new contributions)

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)

Employee Incentive Compensation Plan (EICP)

Morgan Stanley Compensation Incentive Program (MSCIP)

Morgan Stanley 401(k) (401(k) Plan)

D.    Non-Morgan Stanley Accounts

Exceptions to the requirement to maintain Employee Securities Accounts at a Morgan Stanley Broker are rare and require Compliance approval. If your request is approved, you will be required to ensure that duplicate statements are sent to Compliance. Requirements

⁶ The definition of Morgan Stanley Sponsored Accounts does not include Employee Securities Accounts

10

may vary in non-U.S. offices.

If you open an outside account without obtaining the required Compliance pre-approval, you must immediately disclose it to Compliance. You may be required to close such account.

Maintaining a non-Morgan Stanley 401(k) plan or similar account that permits you to trade covered securities must be approved by Compliance.

E.    Individual Savings Accounts (“ISAs”) for employees of MSIM Ltd.

Fully Managed ISAs (i.e., an independent manager makes the investment decisions) and Non-discretionary ISAs (including single company ISAs) where you make investment decisions, may only be established and maintained as long as the account is pre-approved by Compliance via OBI, duplicate statements are supplied to Compliance and applicable reporting requirements are met.

F.    Mutual Fund Accounts

You may open an account for the purpose of transacting in open-end Mutual Funds, including Sub-Advised and Proprietary Mutual Funds (i.e., an account directly with a fund transfer agent) without prior approval from Compliance; however, these accounts are subject to reporting requirements of the Code and should be reported via the Reportable Accounts Disclosure System.

G.    Issuer Purchase Plans

You may open an account directly with an issuer to purchase its shares, such as a dividend reinvestment plan, or “DRIP,” by submitting the DRIP Form to your local Compliance group and pre-clearing the initial purchase and any sales. You must also report DRIP holdings to Compliance as part of the annual certification process.

H.    Investment Clubs

You may not participate in or solicit transactions on behalf of investment clubs in which members pool their funds to make investments in securities or other financial products.

I.    529 Plans

You do not have to obtain approval from Compliance to participate in a 529 plan; however, these plans should be reported via the Reportable Accounts Disclosure System.

III. TRADE PRE-CLEARANCE/RESTRICTIONS

A.    General

You are required to pre-clear all personal securities transactions in Covered Securities,

11

other than transactions in Proprietary or Sub-advised Mutual Funds. Transactions involving Exempt Securities, including Proprietary and Sub-Advised Mutual Funds, do not require pre-clearance. Should an employee be made aware of a proposed transaction in a Fully Managed account or have personally directed, or asked another person to direct a trade in a Fully Managed account, the employee is required to pre-clear that trade prior to execution. See the Securities Transaction Matrix attached as Schedule A for additional information about when pre-clearance is required. In keeping with the general principles and objectives of the Code, Compliance, in its sole discretion, may refuse to grant approval of a personal securities transaction, without specifying a reason for the refusal.

Personal trade requests will be denied if there is an open order for any Client in the same security or related security at the time the personal trade request is submitted. Exceptions are granted if the Covered Security is being purchased or sold for a passively-managed index fund or index portfolio.

Any transaction that is prohibited by the Code may be required to be reversed and any profits (or any differential between the sale price of the personal security transaction and the subsequent purchase or sale price by a Client during the relevant period) subject to disgorgement. See “Enforcement and Sanctions” below.

B.    Initiating a Transaction

Pre-clearance is obtained by entering your trade request into the Trade Pre-Clearance system (type “IMTPC/” into your intranet browser). Upon completion of the necessary checks, you will receive a system generated email notification advising whether your trade request has been approved or rejected.

C.    Pre-Clearance Valid for One Day Only

If your trade request is approved, such approval is valid only for the day on which it is granted.⁷ Any transaction not completed on that day will require a new approval. This means that open orders, such as limit orders and stop-loss orders, must be pre-cleared each day until the transaction is effected. ⁸

D.    Restrictions and Requirements for Portfolio Managers and Investment Personnel

No purchase or sale transaction may be made in any Covered Security or a related investment (i.e., derivatives) by a Portfolio Manager for a period of seven calendar days before or seven calendar days after the Portfolio Manager purchases or sells the security on behalf of a Client. A Portfolio Manager may request an exception from the blackout period if the Covered Security was traded for an index fund or index portfolio.

⁷ The day that you receive an email informing you that the trade request was approved.

⁸ In the case of trades in international markets where the market has already closed, transactions must be executed by the next close of trading in that market.

12

Investment Personnel who have knowledge of a Portfolio Manager’s trading activity are subject to the same seven day blackout period. Investment Personnel must obtain approval from their Designated Manager or his/her designee prior to obtaining pre-clearance by Compliance.

E.    Employees Designated to be “Above the Wall”

MSIM employees in the MSIM Legal and Compliance Division, Internal Audit Division, and the Global Risk & Analysis Super Department are designated to be “Above the Wall” (“ATW”) and their personal securities transactions are subject to additional pre-clearance checks with the Control Group. Other employees may also be subject to the ATW checks as deemed necessary by the Control Group.

F.    Transacting in Morgan Stanley Securities

Transacting in, including the gifting of, Morgan Stanley securities must take place during designated window periods. Consult MS Today for the window period announcement prior to trading. Except as noted below for Access Persons, if you are transacting in Morgan Stanley securities through a brokerage account, you are not required to pre-clear the transaction with Compliance. Similarly, you do not have to pre-clear transactions in Morgan Stanley securities sold out of your Morgan Stanley Sponsored Accounts. All other holding and reporting requirements for Covered Securities still apply.

As noted above, transactions in Morgan Stanley securities effected by MSIMJ employees are subject to a six month holding period.

Additional Restrictions for Access Persons Transacting in Morgan Stanley Securities. All transactions in Morgan Stanley securities must occur during the designated 30-day open window period each quarter. Employee Investing and Activities (“EIAC”) Compliance communicates the open and closed window periods applicable to Access Persons each quarter. During an open window period, Access Persons are required to pre-clear transactions in Morgan Stanley securities through the trade preclearance system, IMTPC. This includes transactions made in the Morgan Stanley stock fund of the 401(k) Plan or shares held externally from previous Firm-sponsored plans (e.g., Computershare, Equiniti).

Positions in Morgan Stanley securities must be held for a minimum of 30 calendar days. A six-month holding period applies to the Firm’s Management and Operating Committee members for positions in Morgan Stanley securities. Shares received as part of equity-based compensation are exempt from the holding period requirements. You are prohibited from buying or selling Morgan Stanley securities if you are in possession of material, non-public information regarding Morgan Stanley.

G.    Trading Derivatives

You may not trade futures, forward contracts, including currency forwards, physical commodities and related derivatives, over-the-counter warrants or swaps. You are

13

prohibited from selling (“writing”) a put. The prohibition on commodities trading applies to trades directly on commodities markets rather than holding the physical commodity (e.g., gold bullion). The following is a list of permitted options trading:

Call Options

Listed Call Options. You may purchase a listed call option if the call option has a “period to expiration” of at least 30 calendar days from the date of purchase and you hold the call option for at least 30 calendar days prior to sale. If you choose to exercise the option, you must also hold the underlying security delivered pursuant to the exercise for 30 calendar days.

Covered Calls. You may also sell (or “write”) a call option only if you have held the underlying security (in the corresponding amount) for at least 30 calendar days.

Put Options

Listed Put Options. You may purchase a listed put option if the put option has a “period to expiration” of at least 30 calendar days from the date of purchase and you hold the put option for at least 30 calendar days prior to sale. If you purchase a put option on a security you already own, you may exercise the put once you have held the underlying security for 30 calendar days. If you purchase a put on a security that you do not own, you may not exercise the put; and must sell the option prior to its expiration date.

You must obtain pre-clearance from Compliance to exercise an option or purchase or sell an option.

H.    Other Restrictions

Primary and Secondary Public Offerings. You and your Employee Securities Account(s) are generally prohibited from purchasing any equity security in an initial or secondary/follow on public offering. In addition, unless otherwise notified by Compliance, you may not purchase an equity security that is part of a primary or secondary public offering that the Firm is underwriting or selling until the distribution has been completed. This restriction does not apply to rights issuances to which Employee Securities Accounts would be entitled with regard to their existing holdings. Note that this restriction also applies to your immediate family, regardless of whether the securities are purchased into an Employee Securities Account.

Purchases of new issue debt are permitted, provided such purchases are pre-cleared by Compliance and meet other relevant requirements of the Code.

Short Sales. You may not engage in short selling of Covered Securities.

Restricted List. You may not transact in Covered Securities that appear on the Firmwide Restricted List. Please check the Restricted List at the time of submitting a TPC request.    Cross Trades: MSIM employees are not allowed to engage in cross trades or pre-arranged trades between MSIM funds or accounts and the MSIM employee’s Security Accounts.

14

Changes to normal settlement cycles: Hong Kong Type 9 License Holders are not permitted to make changes to normal settlement cycle or delay settlement for any trades in Employee Security Accounts.

I.    Other Activities Requiring Pre-Clearance

The following activities also require pre-clearance:

➣ Outside Activities

➣ Transactions in Private Investments

➣ Political Contributions

J.    Additional Large Trading Clearance for Employees in Asia Pacific and Japan

Before executing a securities transaction that exceeds USD 500,000 (or its currency equivalent) or where the cumulative value of current transaction and all transactions in the same issuer within a 30 day calendar window exceeds USD 500,000 (or its currency equivalent), all MSIM employees in Asia Pacific and Japan are required obtain additional large trade pre-clearance by completing the form in the policy link provided below and email a copy to “asialargetrades”:

VI. OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES AND PRIVATE INVESTMENTS

A.    Approval to Engage in an Outside Activity

You may not engage in any Outside Activity, regardless of whether or not you receive compensation or are asked to engage in such activity by the Firm, without prior approval from Compliance. If you receive approval, it is your responsibility to notify Compliance immediately if any conflict or potential conflict of interest arises in the course of the Outside Activity or if the nature of the activity changes, materially. In addition, and as part of the Annual Certification of Employees, you are required to review/edit each disclosure for completeness and accuracy.

Examples of an Outside Activity include providing consulting services, organizing a company, giving a formal lecture or publishing a book or article, accepting compensation from any person or organization other than the Firm, serving as an officer, employee, director, partner, member, or advisory board member of a company or organization not affiliated with the Firm, whether or not related to the financial services industry (including charitable organizations or activities for which you do not receive compensation), setting up a holding company for investments or investing in rental properties. For U.S. registered Employees only, real estate investments that generate rental income require disclosure in the OBI System, unless the property is also used by the Employee as a primary, secondary or vacation residence. Generally, Compliance will not approve any Outside Activity related to the securities or financial services industry other than activities that reflect the interests of the industry as a whole and that are not in competition with those of the Firm.

In the case of employees of Morgan Stanley AIP GP LP (“AIP”), where serving on an advisory board for a company in which AIP invests is part of the AIP employee’s roles and responsibilities as an employee of AIP, such service shall not be considered an Outside

18

Activity and approval via the OBI System is not required. The relevant senior business managers are responsible for approving Employees to serve on advisory boards, documenting such approvals, maintaining a list of such Employees, and reviewing the list in consultation with the relevant Compliance officers at least annually.

A request to serve on the board of any company, particularly the board of a public company, will be granted in very limited instances only. If you receive approval, your directorship may be subject to the implementation of information barrier procedures to isolate you from making investment decisions for Clients concerning the company in question, as applicable.

B.    Approval to Invest in a Private Investment

You may not invest in a Private Investment of any kind without prior approval from Compliance. Private Investments include investments in privately held corporations, limited partnerships, tax shelter programs, hedge funds (including those sponsored by Morgan Stanley or its affiliates), and holding companies (i.e. LLC, LP, S-Corp, C-Corp, etc.).

For SG-licensed employees, it is prohibited to conduct (by way of outside activity or private investment) the following non-financial advisory activities:

- Carrying on moneylending business

- Organising, promoting or conducting any casino marketing arrangement

- Being involved in the real estate agency business

- Marketing any investment that is not an investment product

C.    Pre-Clearance Process

You may request pre-clearance of Outside Activities and Private Investments by typing “OBI” into your intranet browser.

VII. CONSULTANTS AND TEMPORARY WORKERS

Consultants and other temporary workers who fall under the definition of a Covered Person by virtue of their duties and responsibilities with MSIM must adhere to the following:

➣ Initial, quarterly and annual reporting;

➣ Provision of duplicate account statements to Compliance for transactions in any Covered Security;

➣ Prohibition against participating in any IPOs;

hired for positions lasting more than one year or are otherwise classified as a Covered Person by their assignment contacts/managers or Compliance may be required to transfer brokerage accounts to a Morgan Stanley Broker or Firm approved third party broker as applicable to the respective jurisdiction.

VIII. REVIEW, INTERPRETATIONS AND EXCEPTIONS

Compliance is responsible for administering the Code and reviewing your Initial, Quarterly and Annual Reports. Compliance has the authority to make final decisions regarding Code policies and may grant an exception to a policy as long as it determines that no abuse or potential abuse is involved. Exceptions are granted only in rare and unusual circumstances, such as financial hardship. You must contact Compliance with any questions regarding the applicability, meaning or administration of the Code, including requests for an exception, in advance of any contemplated transaction.

IX. ENFORCEMENT AND SANCTIONS

Violations of the Code are reported to the Head of MSIM Compliance, senior management and, on a quarterly basis, to the applicable funds’ board of directors. We may issue letters of warning/education or impose sanctions as appropriate, including notifying your Designated Manager, issuing a reprimand (orally or in writing), restricting your trading privileges, reducing your discretionary bonus, if any, requiring reversal of a trade made in violation of the Code or other applicable policies, or taking other disciplinary action, including, but not limited to, suspension or termination of your employment. Violations are considered on a cumulative basis. The foregoing sanctions are intended to be guidelines only. Compliance, in its discretion, may recommend alternative actions if deemed warranted by the facts and circumstances of each situation. MSIM management, including the Head of MSIM Compliance, is authorized to determine the choice of actions to be taken in specific cases.

Sanctions may vary based on applicable law and regulatory requirements in your jurisdiction.

X. RELATED POLICIES
