The tenth paragraph of the section of the Prospectus entitled ‘‘Shareholder Information — How to Exchange Shares’’ is hereby deleted and replaced with the following: 

Exchanging Shares of Another Fund Subject to a Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (‘‘CDSC’’). There are special considerations when you exchange shares subject to a CDSC of another Morgan Stanley Fund for shares of the Fund. When determining the length of time you held the shares and the corresponding CDSC rate, any period (starting at the end of the month) during which you held shares of the Fund will not be counted. Thus, in effect the ‘‘holding period’’ for purposes of calculating the CDSC is frozen upon exchanging into the Fund. Nevertheless, if shares subject to a CDSC were exchanged for shares of the Fund prior to August 1, 2007, you will receive a credit when you sell the shares equal to the distribution (12b-1) fees, if any, you paid on those shares while in the Fund up to the amount of any applicable CDSC. See the prospectus of the fund that charges the CDSC for more details. 

*** 

With respect to the Morgan Stanley U.S. Government Money Market Trust, the section of the Prospectus entitled ‘‘The Fund — Fees and Expenses’’ is hereby deleted and replaced with the following: 

The Fund is a no-load fund. The Fund does not impose any sales charges and does not impose account or exchange fees. The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Services Plan. The Plan allows the Fund to pay shareholder servicing fees of up to an annual rate of 0.15% of its average daily net assets. The table below briefly describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.
