                                                 Based on the Values of

Unlike ordinary debt securities, the RELAYS do not pay interest and do not guarantee any return of principal at
maturity. Instead, if the RELAYS have not been subject to automatic redemption, at maturity you will receive for each
$1,000 principal amount of RELAYS that you hold an amount in cash that will vary depending upon the values of the S&P
500(R) Index and the Nikkei 225(R) Index over the term of the RELAYS and on the final determination date and which may
be less than the par amount of the RELAYS.

o    We will not pay periodic interest on the RELAYS.

o    If on any one of the first three determination dates, both the closing value of the S&P 500 Index and the closing
     value of the Nikkei 225 Index are greater than their respective initial index values, the RELAYS will be
     automatically redeemed for a cash payment on the third business day following the applicable determination date,
     the amount of which will vary depending on the applicable determination date:

     o    if both index closing values on February 24, 2007 exceed their respective initial index values, we will redeem
          the RELAYS for $1,135 (113.5% of par),

     o    if both index closing values on February 24, 2008 exceed their respective initial index values, we will redeem
          the RELAYS for $1,270 (127% of par) or

     o    if both index closing values on February 24, 2009 exceed their respective initial index values, we will redeem
          the RELAYS for $1,405 (140.5% of par).

o    At maturity, if the RELAYS have not previously been redeemed, you will receive for each $1,000 principal amount of
     RELAYS that you hold an amount of cash equal to:

     o    $1,540 (154% of par) if the index closing values of both the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on
          February 19, 2010, the final determination date, are greater than their respective initial index values, or

     o    $1,000 (par) if the index closing value of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index on February 19,
          2010 is less than or equal to its initial index value and the value of neither the S&P 500 Index nor the
          Nikkei 225 Index has decreased to or below its specified trigger level at any time on any trading day from but
          excluding the date of this pricing supplement to and including the final determination date, or

     o    $1,000 times the index performance factor, which will be less than or equal to 1.0, if the index closing value
          of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index on February 19, 2010 is less than or equal to its initial
          index value and the value of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index has decreased to or below its
          specified trigger level at any time on any trading day from but excluding the date of this pricing supplement
          to and including the final determination date.

          >    The initial index values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index are 1,283.04 and 15,781.78,
               respectively.

               divided by the initial index value of the S&P 500 Index; and (ii) the final index value of the Nikkei 225
               Index divided by the initial index value of the Nikkei 225 Index.

                                              SUMMARY OF PRICING SUPPLEMENT


     The following summary describes the RELAYS(SM) we are offering to you in general terms only. You should read the
summary together with the more detailed information that is contained in the rest of this pricing supplement and in the
accompanying prospectus and prospectus supplement. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set
forth in "Risk Factors."

     The RELAYS offered are medium-term debt securities of Morgan Stanley. The return on the RELAYS is linked to the
performance of the S&P 500(R) Index and the Nikkei 225(R) Index.

     "Standard and Poor's(R)," "S&P(R)" and "S&P 500(R)" are trademarks of Standard & Poor's Corporation, which we refer
to as S&P, and "Nikkei 225(R) Index" is a trademark of Nihon Keizai Shimbun, Inc., which we refer to as Nikkei, and each
have been licensed for use by Morgan Stanley. "Redeemable Equity-Linked Alternative Yield Securities" and "RELAYS" are
our service marks.

Each RELAYS costs $1,000         We, Morgan Stanley, are offering Redeemable Equity-Linked Alternative Yield Securities
                                 due February 24, 2010, Mandatorily Exchangeable for an Amount Payable in U.S. Dollars
                                 Based on the Values of the S&P 500(R) Index and the Nikkei 225(R) Index, which we refer
                                 to as the RELAYS. The principal amount and issue price of each RELAYS is $1,000.

                                 The original issue price of the RELAYS includes the agent's commissions paid with
                                 respect to the RELAYS and the cost of hedging our obligations under the RELAYS. The
                                 cost of hedging includes the projected profit that our subsidiaries may realize in
                                 consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging transactions. The
                                 fact that the original issue price of the RELAYS reflects these commissions and hedging
                                 costs is expected to adversely affect the secondary market prices of the RELAYS. See
                                 "Risk Factors--The inclusion of commissions and projected profit of hedging in the
                                 original issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices" and
                                 "Description of RELAYS--Use of Proceeds and Hedging."

No guaranteed return of          Unlike ordinary debt securities, the RELAYS do not pay interest and do not
principal; no interest           guarantee any return of principal at maturity.  If the RELAYS have not been
                                 redeemed prior to maturity and the final index value of either the S&P 500 Index or the
                                 Nikkei 225 Index is less than or equal to its initial index value, and the value of
                                 either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index has decreased to or below its
                                 specified trigger level at any time on any date from but excluding the date of this
                                 pricing supplement, to and including the final determination date, we will pay to you
                                 an amount in cash per RELAYS that is less than the $1,000 issue price of each RELAYS by
                                 an amount proportionate to the decrease in the value of whichever index has declined
                                 more.

                                      Because the index performance factor will be less than or equal to 1.0, this
                                      payment will be less than or equal to the $1,000 principal amount per RELAYS. The
                                      index performance factor is based on the underlying index that has declined more.

                                 Beginning on PS-7, we have provided examples titled “Hypothetical Payouts on the
                                 RELAYS,” which explain in more detail the possible payouts on the RELAYS at each early
                                 redemption date and at maturity assuming a variety of hypothetical index closing values
                                 on each determination date, including the final determination date. The table does not

                                 You can review the historical values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index in
                                 the sections of this pricing supplement called “Description of RELAYS--Historical
                                 Information of the S&P 500 Index” and “Description of RELAYS--Historical Information of
                                 the Nikkei 225 Index.” The payment of dividends on the stocks that underlie the S&P 500
                                 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index is not reflected in the levels of the S&P 500 Index and
                                 the Nikkei 225 Index and, therefore, has no effect on the calculation of the payment at
                                 maturity.

                                 If a market disruption event occurs with respect to the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225
                                 Index on any determination date or if a scheduled determination date is not a trading
                                 day, the applicable index closing value(s) for the disrupted index or indices on such
                                 determination date will be determined on the next trading day on which no market
                                 disruption event occurs. If a market disruption event occurs on the final determination
                                 date, the final index value(s) for the disrupted index or indices will be determined on
                                 the next trading day on which no market disruption event occurs and, consequently, the
                                 maturity date of the RELAYS will be postponed. See the section of this pricing
                                 supplement called “Description of RELAYS--Determination Dates.”

                                 Investing in the RELAYS is not equivalent to investing in the S&P 500 Index and the

                                           HYPOTHETICAL PAYOUTS ON THE RELAYS

     The following examples illustrate the payout on the RELAYS for a range of hypothetical index closing values of the
S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on each of the four determination dates and, to illustrate the effect of the
trigger level, a hypothetical intraday index value on a random interim date from but excluding the date of this pricing
supplement to but including the final determination date.

     These examples are based on the following terms:

o    initial index value of the S&P 500 Index: 1,283.04

o    initial index value of the Nikkei 225 Index: 15,781.78

o    trigger level for the S&P 500 Index: 898.128, which is 70% of the initial index value of the S&P 500 Index

o    trigger level for the Nikkei 225 Index:  11,047.246,  which is 70% of the initial index value of the Nikkei
         225 Index

o    Issue Price (per RELAYS): $1,000.

     In Examples 1, 2 and 3, the values of the two indices fluctuate over the term of the RELAYS and both indices close
above their respective initial index values of 100 on one of the first three determination dates. However, each example
produces a different early redemption payment because both index closing values exceed their respective initial index
values on a different determination date in each example. Accordingly, because both index closing values exceed their
respective initial index values on one of the determination dates, the RELAYS are automatically redeemed as of that
date. Additionally, Example 3 illustrates that the decline of the indices to or below their respective trigger levels on
a random interim date from but excluding the date of this pricing supplement to and including the final determination
date does not affect the payout if the RELAYS are automatically redeemed on either of the first three determination
dates.

1      The Hypothetical Index Value for each determination date is the index closing value for that date, and the
Hypothetical Index Value for the random Interim Date is an intraday index value.

o    In Example 1, the index closing values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on the first determination
     date have increased to 1,668 and 18,938, which are approximately 30% and 20% above their respective initial index
     values, and the RELAYS are automatically redeemed for $1,135 per RELAYS, representing a 13.5% increase above the
     Issue Price. This increase is less than, and unrelated to, the simple returns on the two indices of approximately
     30% and 20%.




                                                          PS-7

========================================================================================================================



o    In Example 2, the index closing value of the S&P 500 Index on the first determination date has decreased to 1,103,
     which is approximately 14% below the initial index value; therefore, the RELAYS are not automatically redeemed and
     remain outstanding, even though the index closing value of the Nikkei 225 Index has increased to 17,360, which is
     approximately 10% above the initial index value. On the second determination date, the index closing values of the
     S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index have increased to 1,296 and 19,727, which are approximately 1% and 25% above
     their respective initial index values, and the RELAYS are automatically redeemed for $1,270 per RELAYS,
     representing a 27% increase above the Issue Price.

o    In Example 3, the index closing values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on the first determination
     date have decreased to 1,129 and 14,677, which are approximately 12% and 7% below their respective initial index
     values. On the second determination date, the Nikkei 225 Index has increased back to and exceeded its initial index
     value, but the S&P 500 Index has not exceeded its initial index value; therefore, the RELAYS are not automatically
     redeemed on either of the first two determination dates and remain outstanding. The intraday value of the S&P 500
     Index on the random Interim Date has decreased to 834, which is approximately 35% below the initial index value,
     and is below the trigger level, but on the third determination date, both index closing values have increased above
     their respective initial index values to 1,334 and 16,097, which are approximately 4% and 2% above the initial
     index value; so the RELAYS are automatically redeemed for $1,405 per RELAYS, representing a 40.5% increase above
     the Issue Price.

     In each of Examples 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, the index closing value of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225
Index on the first, second and third determination dates is less than or equal to its initial index value, and,
consequently, the RELAYS are not automatically redeemed prior to, and remain outstanding until, maturity.

o    In Example 4, on the final determination date, the index closing values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225
     Index have increased approximately 50% and 40% above their respective initial index values to 1,925 and 22,094, and
     the payment at maturity equals $1,540 per RELAYS, representing a 54% increase above the Issue Price. This increase
     is less than, and unrelated to, the simple returns on the indices of 50% and 40%. Even though on the random Interim
     Date the intraday value of the Nikkei 225 Index decreased below the trigger level, the payment at maturity is
     unaffected because both index closing values on the final determination date exceed their respective initial index
     values.

o    In Example 5, on the final determination date, the index closing values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225
     Index have decreased approximately 28% and 11% below their respective initial index values to 924 and 14,046. But,
     because the value of neither the S&P 500 Index nor the Nikkei 225 Index decreased to or below their respective
     trigger level at any time during the life of the RELAYS, the payment at maturity equals $1,000 per RELAYS, an
     amount equal to the Issue Price.

o    In Example 6, on the final determination date, the index closing value of the S&P 500 Index has decreased
     approximately 28% below the initial index value to 924 and the index closing value of the Nikkei 225 Index has
     increased 20% above the initial index value to 18,938. Because the value of neither the S&P 500 Index nor the
     Nikkei 225 Index decreased to or below their respective trigger level at any time during the life of the RELAYS,
     the payment at maturity equals $1,000 per RELAYS, an amount equal to the Issue Price. Even though the value of one
     of the underlying indices increased approximately 20% over the term of the RELAYS, the RELAYS only return the
     $1,000 par amount because the other index did not exceed its initial index value.

o    In Example 7, on the final determination date, the index closing value of the S&P 500 Index has increased
     approximately 5% above the initial index value to 1,347 and the index closing value of the Nikkei 225 Index has
     decreased approximately 10% below the initial index value to 14,204. Because the intraday value of the S&P 500
     Index on the random Interim Date decreased to 885, which is approximately 31% below the initial index value, and is
     below the trigger level, the payment at maturity equals $1,000 principal amount times an index performance factor
     of 0.90 (the lower of 1.05 for the S&P 500 Index and 0.90 for the Nikkei 225 Index), which results in a payment at
     maturity of $900 per RELAYS, representing a 10% decrease below the Issue Price. The return on the RELAYS reflects
     the decrease in value of the Nikkei 225 Index, even though the S&P 500 Index was the index that decreased below the
     trigger level.

o    In Example 8, on the final determination date, the index closing values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225
     Index have decreased approximately 38% and 6% below their respective initial index values to 795 and 14,835.
     Because the intraday value of the S&P 500 Index on the random Interim Date decreased to 885, which is approximately
     31% below the initial index value, and is below the trigger level, the payment at maturity equals $1,000 principal
     amount times an index performance factor of 0.62 (the lower of 0.62 for the S&P 500 Index and 0.94 for the Nikkei
     225 Index), which results in a payment at maturity of $620 per RELAYS, representing a 38% decrease below the Issue
     Price.

o    In Example 9, on the final determination date, the index closing value of the S&P 500 Index has decreased to 1,129,
     which is approximately 12% below the initial index value and the index closing value of the Nikkei 225 Index has
     increased to 19,727, which is approximately 25% above the initial index value. Because the intraday value of the
     S&P 500 Index on the random Interim Date decreased to 885, which is 31% below the initial index value, and is below
     the trigger level, the payment at maturity equals the $1,000 principal amount times an index performance factor of
     0.88 (the lower of 0.88 for the S&P 500 Index and 1.25 for the Nikkei 225 Index), which results in a payment at
     maturity of $880 per RELAYS, representing a 12% decrease below the Issue Price, even though the value of one of the
     underlying indices increased approximately 25% over the term of the RELAYS.

                                                      RISK FACTORS

     The RELAYS are not secured debt, are riskier than ordinary debt securities and, unlike ordinary debt securities, do
not pay interest or guarantee any return of principal at maturity. Investing in the RELAYS is not equivalent to
investing directly in the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index or their component stocks. This section describes the
most significant risks relating to the RELAYS. You should carefully consider whether the RELAYS are suited to your
particular circumstances before you decide to purchase them.

The RELAYS do not pay            The terms of the RELAYS differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that we will
interest or guarantee return     not pay you interest on the RELAYS or guarantee you the principal amount of the RELAYS
of principal                     at maturity. Instead, if the RELAYS have not previously been automatically redeemed, at
                                 maturity you will receive for each $1,000 principal amount of RELAYS that you hold an
                                 amount in cash based upon the values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index as
                                 follows:

                                 o    Only if the final index values of both the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index
                                      on the final determination date are greater than their respective initial index
                                      values will you receive an amount in cash greater than the par amount at maturity.
                                      The payment would be equal to $1,540.

                                 o    If the final index value of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index
                                      is less than its initial index value and the value of neither the S&P 500
                                      Index nor the Nikkei 225 Index has decreased to or below its specified trigger
                                      level at any time on any date from but excluding the date of this pricing
                                      supplement to and including the final determination date, you will receive the
                                      $1,000 issue price.  The payment of the $1,000 issue price at maturity will
                                      not compensate you for the effects of inflation and other factors relating to
                                      the value of money over time.  See "Hypothetical Payouts on the RELAYS" on
                                      PS-7.

                                 o    If the final index value of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index
                                      is less than its initial index value and if the value of either S&P 500 Index
                                      or the Nikkei 225 Index has decreased to or below its specified trigger level
                                      at any time on any date from but excluding the date of this pricing supplement
                                      to and including the final determination date, you will receive an amount in
                                      cash that is less than the $1,000 issue price of each RELAYS by an amount
                                      proportionate to the decrease in the value of whichever index has declined
                                      more.  In such case, you may suffer a loss of a significant amount of your
                                      investment in the RELAYS.

Your appreciation potential is   The appreciation potential of the RELAYS is limited by the redemption feature of the
limited; RELAYS subject to       RELAYS to a maximum of 13.5% of the issue price for each year that the RELAYS are
early redemption                 outstanding regardless of any greater positive performance of the S&P 500 Index and the
                                 Nikkei 225 Index. In addition, the early redemption feature may limit the term of your
                                 investment to as short as one year.

The RELAYS will not be listed    The RELAYS will not be listed on any securities exchange.  Therefore, there may be
                                 little or no secondary market for the RELAYS.  MS & Co. currently intends to act as
                                 a market maker for the RELAYS but is not required to do so. Even if there is a
                                 secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell
                                 the RELAYS easily.  Because we do not expect that other market makers will
                                 participate significantly in the secondary market for the RELAYS, the price at
                                 which you may be able to trade your RELAYS 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 acting as a market maker, it is likely that there would be no secondary
                                 market for the RELAYS.

========================================================================================================================



Market price of the RELAYS       Several factors, some of which are beyond our control, will influence the value of the
may be influenced by many        RELAYS in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to
unpredictable factors            purchase or sell the RELAYS in the secondary market. We expect that generally the
                                 values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on any day will affect the value
                                 of the RELAYS more than any other single factor. However, because the payout on the
                                 RELAYS is only directly correlated to the values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei
                                 225 Index in certain circumstances, the RELAYS will trade differently from the S&P 500
                                 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index. Other factors that may influence the value of the
                                 RELAYS include:

                                 o    the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of the S&P 500 Index
                                      and the Nikkei 225 Index

                                 o    the level of correlation between the value of S&P 500 Index and the value the
                                      Nikkei 225 Index

                                 o    the dividend rate on the stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei
                                      225 Index

                                 o    whether the value of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index has been at or
                                      below the trigger level at any time on any date

                                 o    geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial
                                      events that affect the stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225
                                      Index or stock markets generally and which may affect the value of the S&P 500
                                      Index or the value the Nikkei 225 Index

                                 o    interest and yield rates in the market

                                 o    the time remaining until the next determination date(s)and the maturity of the
                                      RELAYS

                                 o    our creditworthiness

                                 Some or all of these factors will influence the price you will receive if you sell your
                                 RELAYS prior to maturity. For example, you may have to sell your RELAYS at a
                                 substantial discount from the principal amount if on that date either the value of the
                                 S&P 500 Index or the value of the Nikkei 225 Index is at or below 1,283.04 and
                                 15,781.78, respectively, especially if at any time on any date the value of either the
                                 S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index has fallen to or below its specified trigger
                                 level.

                                 You cannot predict the future performance of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index
                                 based on its historical performance. The value of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225
                                 Index may decrease so that you will receive at maturity a payment that is less than the
                                 principal amount of the RELAYS by an amount proportionate to the decrease in the value
                                 of whichever of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index has declined more. There can
                                 be no assurance that the values of both the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index will
                                 have increased on any determination date so that you will receive at maturity or on any
                                 earlier redemption date more than the principal amount of the RELAYS.

The inclusion of commissions     Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the price, if
and projected profit from        any, at which MS & Co. is willing to purchase RELAYS in secondary market transactions
hedging in the original issue    will likely be lower than the original issue price, since the original issue price
price is likely to adversely     included, and secondary market prices are likely to exclude, commissions paid with
affect secondary market prices   respect to the RELAYS, as well as the projected profit included in the cost of hedging
                                 our obligations under the RELAYS. In addition, any such prices may differ from values
                                 determined by pricing models used by MS & Co., as a result of dealer discounts,
                                 mark-ups or other transaction costs.

                                 is comparable to the discontinued index. MS & Co. could have an economic interest that
                                 is different than that of investors in the RELAYS insofar as, for example, MS & Co. is

                                 hedge our obligations under the RELAYS expect to make a profit. Since hedging our
                                 obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our or our
                                 subsidiaries’ control, such hedging may result in a profit that is more or less than
                                 initially projected.

Hedging and trading activity by  MS & Co. and other affiliates of ours have carried out, and will continue to carry out,
the calculation agent and its    hedging activities related to the RELAYS (and possibly to other instruments linked to

adversely affect the values of   in the stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index as well as in other
the S&P 500 Index and the        instruments related to the two indices. MS & Co. and some of our other subsidiaries
Nikkei 225 Index                 also trade the stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index and other
                                 financial instruments related to the two indices on a regular basis as part of their
                                 general broker-dealer, proprietary trading and other businesses. Any of these hedging
                                 or trading activities on or prior to the date of this pricing supplement could
                                 potentially have affected the value of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index and,
                                 as a result, could have increased the level at which the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei
                                 225 Index must close before you receive a payment at maturity or upon automatic
                                 redemption that exceeds the principal amount of the RELAYS. Additionally, such hedging
                                 or trading activities during the term of the RELAYS could potentially affect the values
                                 of the S and P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on the determination dates and,

                                 maturity.


Tax treatment                    You should also consider the U.S. federal income tax consequences of investing in
                                 the RELAYS.  An investment in a RELAYS should be treated as an “open transaction”
                                 with respect to the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index for U.S. federal income
                                 tax purposes, as described in the section of this pricing supplement called
                                 “Description of RELAYS--United States Federal Income Taxation.”  Under this
                                 treatment, if you are a U.S. taxable investor, you should not be required to accrue
                                 any income during the term of a RELAYS; but you should recognize capital gain or
                                 loss at maturity or upon a sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition of the
                                 RELAYS in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and your
                                 tax basis in the RELAYS. However, due to the absence of authorities that directly
                                 address the proper tax treatment of the RELAYS, no assurance can be given that the
                                 IRS will accept, or that a court will uphold, this characterization and treatment.
                                 If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative characterization or
                                 treatment, the timing and character of income thereon would be significantly
                                 affected. Please read carefully the section of this pricing supplement called
                                 "Description of RELAYS--United States Federal Income Taxation."

                                 If you are a foreign investor, please read the section of this pricing supplement
                                 called "Description of RELAYS--United States Federal Income Taxation" for a
                                 discussion of the withholding tax consequences of an investment in the RELAYS.

                                 You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding all aspects of the U.S.
                                 federal income tax consequences of investing in the RELAYS, as well as any tax
                                 consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing
                                 jurisdiction.

                                   including the final Determination Date. Because the Index Performance Factor will be
                                   less than or equal to 1.0, this payment will be less than or equal to $1,000. The
                                   index performance factor is based on the underlying index that has declined more.

                              We shall, or shall cause the Calculation Agent to, (i) provide written notice to the
                              Trustee and to DTC of the amount of cash to be delivered with respect to the $1,000
                              principal amount of each RELAYS on or prior to 10:30 a.m. on the Trading Day preceding the
                              Maturity Date (but if such Trading Day is not a Business Day, prior to the close of
                              business on the Business Day preceding the Maturity Date), and (ii) deliver the aggregate
                              cash amount due with respect to the RELAYS to the Trustee for delivery to DTC, as holder
                              of the RELAYS, on or prior to the Maturity Date. We expect such amount of cash will be
                              distributed to investors on the Maturity Date in accordance with the standard rules and
                              procedures of DTC and its direct and indirect participants. See "--Book Entry Note or

Final Index Values.........   The Index Closing Values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index, respectively, on
                              the final Determination Date, as determined by the Calculation Agent.

Index Performance Factor...   The lower of (i) the Final Index Value of the S&P 500 Index divided by the Initial Index
                              Value of the S&P 500 Index and (ii) the Final Index Value of the Nikkei 225 Index divided
                              by the Initial Index Value of the Nikkei 225 Index.

Trigger Levels.............   With respect to the S&P 500 Index, 898.128, which is 70% of its Initial Index Value, and
                              With respect to the Nikkei 225 Index, 11,047.246, which is 70% of its Initial Index Value.

Index Closing Value........   The Index Closing Value of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index on any Trading Day
                              will equal the official closing value of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index,
                              respectively, or in each case, any Successor Index (as defined under "--Discontinuance of

                              will be based on the alternate calculation of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index
                              described under "--Discontinuance of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index; Alteration
                              of Method of Calculation."

Determination Dates........   February 24, 2007, February 24, 2008, February 24, 2009 and February 19, 2010, or if any
                              such day is not a Trading Day or if there is a Market Disruption Event on such day, in
                              each case, with respect to the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index, the Determination
                              Date with respect to such index shall be the next succeeding Trading Day on which there is
                              no Market Disruption Event; provided that if a Market Disruption Event, with respect to

                              the formula for and method of calculating the disrupted index last in effect prior to the
                              commencement of the Market Disruption Event, using the closing price (or, if trading in

                              Determination Date (in each case, the "Early Redemption Date") for the Early Redemption
                              Payment.

Early Redemption Payment...   The Early Redemption Payment will equal:

Market Disruption Event....   Market Disruption Event means the occurrence or existence of any of the following events
                              with respect to either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index:

                                   (i) a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading of stocks then
                                   constituting 20 percent or more of the level of the S&P 500 Index or of the Nikkei
                                   225 Index (or the Successor Index) on the Relevant Exchanges for such securities for
                                   more than two hours of trading or during the one-half hour period preceding the close
                                   of the principal trading session on each such Relevant Exchange; or a breakdown or
                                   failure in the price and trade reporting systems of any Relevant Exchange as a result
                                   of which the reported trading prices for stocks then constituting 20 percent or more
                                   of the level of the S&P 500 Index or of the Nikkei 225 Index (or the relevant
                                   Successor Index) during the last one-half hour preceding the close of the principal
                                   trading session on such Relevant Exchange are materially inaccurate; or the

                                   absence or material limitation of trading on any major securities market for trading
                                   in futures or options contracts or exchange traded funds related to the S&P 500 Index
                                   or the Nikkei 225 Index (or the relevant Successor Index) for more than two hours of
                                   trading or during the one-half hour period preceding the close of the principal
                                   trading session on such market, in each case as determined by the Calculation Agent
                                   in its sole discretion; and

                                   (ii)a determination by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion that any event
                                   described in clause (i) above materially interfered with our ability or the ability
                                   of any of our affiliates to unwind or adjust all or a material portion of the hedge
                                   with respect to the RELAYS.

                              For the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event exists at any time, if
                              trading in a security included in the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index is materially
                              suspended or materially limited at that time, then the relevant percentage contribution of
                              that security to the level of such disrupted index shall be based on a comparison of (x)
                              the portion of the level of the disrupted index attributable to that security relative to
                              (y) the overall level of the disrupted index, in each case immediately before that
                              suspension or limitation.

                              For purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred: (1) a
                              limitation on the hours or number of days of trading will not constitute a Market
                              Disruption Event if it results from an announced change in the regular business hours of
                              the relevant exchange or market, (2) a decision to permanently discontinue trading in the
                              relevant futures or options contract will not constitute a Market Disruption Event, (3)
                              limitations pursuant to the rules of any Relevant Exchange similar to NYSE Rule 80A (or
                              any applicable rule or regulation enacted or promulgated by any other self-regulatory
                              organization or any government agency of scope similar to NYSE Rule 80A as determined by
                              the Calculation Agent) on trading during significant market fluctuations will constitute a
                              suspension, absence or material limitation of trading, (4) a suspension of trading in
                              futures or options contracts on the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index by the primary
                              securities market trading in such contracts by reason of (x) a price change exceeding
                              limits set by such securities exchange or market, (y) an imbalance of orders relating to
                              such contracts or (z) a disparity in bid and ask quotes relating to such contracts will
                              constitute a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading in futures or options
                              contracts related to the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index and (5) a "suspension,
                              absence or material limitation of trading" on any Relevant Exchange or on the primary
                              securities market on which futures or options contracts related to the S&P 500 Index or
                              the Nikkei 225 Index are traded will not include any time when such market is itself
                              closed for trading under ordinary circumstances.

Relevant Exchange..........   Relevant Exchange means the primary exchange or market of trading for any security (or any
                              combination thereof) then included in the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index or any

Alternate Exchange
  Calculation in Case of
  an Event of Default......   In case an event of default with respect to the RELAYS shall have occurred and be
                              continuing, the amount declared due and payable per RELAYS upon any acceleration of the
                              RELAYS shall be determined by the Calculation Agent and shall be an amount in cash equal
                              to the Payment at Maturity calculated as if the date of acceleration were the final
                              Determination Date.

                              If the maturity of the RELAYS is accelerated because of an event of default as described
                              above, we shall, or shall cause the Calculation Agent to, provide written notice to the
                              Trustee at its New York office, on which notice the Trustee may conclusively rely, and to
                              DTC of the cash amount due with respect to the RELAYS as promptly as possible and in no
                              event later than two Business Days after the date of acceleration.

The S&P 500 Index..........   We have derived all information contained in this pricing supplement regarding the S&P 500
                              Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation and changes in
                              its components, from publicly available information. Such information reflects the
                              policies of, and is subject to change by Standard & Poor's Corporation, or S&P. The S&P
                              500 Index was developed by S&P and is calculated, maintained and published by S&P. We make
                              no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.

                              The S&P 500 Index is intended to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S. equity
                              markets. The calculation of the value of the S&P 500 Index (discussed below in further
                              detail) is based on the relative value of the aggregate Market Value (as defined below) of
                              the common stocks of 500 companies (the "Component Stocks") as of a particular time as
                              compared to the aggregate average Market Value of the common stocks of 500 similar
                              companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. The "Market Value" of any
                              Component Stock is the product of the market price per share and the number of the then
                              outstanding shares of such Component Stock. The 500 companies are not the 500 largest
                              companies listed on the NYSE and not all 500 companies are listed on such exchange. S&P
                              chooses companies for inclusion in the S&P 500 Index with an aim of achieving a
                              distribution by broad industry groupings that approximates the distribution of these
                              groupings in the common stock population of the U.S. equity market. S&P may from time to
                              time, in its sole discretion, add companies to, or delete companies from, the S&P 500
                              Index to achieve the objectives stated above. Relevant criteria employed by S&P include
                              the viability of the particular company, the extent to which that company represents the
                              industry group to which it is assigned, the extent to which the company's common stock is
                              widely-held and the Market Value and trading activity of the common stock of that company.

========================================================================================================================



                              The S&P 500 Index is calculated using a base-weighted aggregate methodology: the level of
                              the S&P 500 Index reflects the total Market Value of all 500 Component Stocks relative to
                              the S&P 500 Index's base period of 1941-43 (the "Base Period").

                              An indexed number is used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make
                              the value easier to work with and track over time.

                              The actual total Market Value of the Component Stocks during the Base Period has been set
                              equal to an indexed value of 10. This is often indicated by the notation 1941-43=10. In
                              practice, the daily calculation of the S&P 500 Index is computed by dividing the total
                              Market Value of the Component Stocks by a number called the "Index Divisor." By itself,
                              the Index Divisor is an arbitrary number. However, in the context of the calculation of
                              the S&P 500 Index, it is the only link to the original base period value of the S&P 500
                              Index. The Index Divisor keeps the S&P 500 Index comparable over time and is the
                              manipulation point for all adjustments to the S&P 500 Index ("Index Maintenance").

                              Index Maintenance includes monitoring and completing the adjustments for company additions
                              and deletions, share changes, stock splits, stock dividends, and stock price adjustments
                              due to company restructurings or spinoffs.

                              To prevent the value of the S&P 500 Index from changing due to corporate actions, all
                              corporate actions which affect the total Market Value of the S&P 500 Index require an
                              Index Divisor adjustment. By adjusting the Index Divisor for the change in total Market
                              Value, the value of the S&P 500 Index remains constant. This helps maintain the value of
                              the S&P 500 Index as an accurate barometer of stock market performance and ensures that
                              the movement of the S&P 500 Index does not reflect the corporate actions of individual
                              companies in the S&P 500 Index. All Index Divisor adjustments are made after the close of
                              trading and after the calculation of the closing value of the S&P 500 Index. Some
                              corporate actions, such as stock splits and stock dividends, require simple changes in the
                              common shares outstanding and the stock prices of the companies in the S&P 500 Index and
                              do not require Index Divisor adjustments.

                              The table below summarizes the types of S&P 500 Index maintenance adjustments and
                              indicates whether or not an Index Divisor adjustment is required.

                              Stock splits and stock dividends do not affect the Index Divisor of the S&P 500 Index,
                              because following a split or dividend both the stock price and number of shares
                              outstanding are adjusted by S&P so that there is no change in the Market Value of the
                              Component Stock. All stock split and dividend adjustments are made after the close of
                              trading on the day before the ex-date.

                              Each of the corporate events exemplified in the table requiring an adjustment to the Index
                              Divisor has the effect of altering the Market Value of the Component Stock and
                              consequently of altering the aggregate Market Value of the Component Stocks (the
                              "Post-Event Aggregate Market Value"). In order that the level of the S&P 500 Index (the
                              "Pre-Event Index Value") not be affected by the altered Market Value (whether increase or
                              decrease) of the affected Component Stock, a new Index Divisor ("New Divisor") is derived
                              as follows:

                              Post-Event Aggregate Market Value
                              ---------------------------------   =   Pre-Event Index Value
                                        New Divisor

                                                                Post-Event Market Value
                                   New Divisor         =        ------------------------
                                                                 Pre-Event Index Value

                              A large part of the S&P 500 Index maintenance process involves tracking the changes in the
                              number of shares outstanding of each of the S&P 500 Index companies. Four times a year, on
                              a Friday close to the end of each calendar quarter, the share totals of companies in the
                              S&P 500 Index are updated as required by any changes in the number of shares outstanding.
                              After the totals are updated, the Index Divisor is adjusted to compensate for the net
                              change in the total Market Value of the S&P 500 Index. In addition, any changes over 5% in
                              the current common shares outstanding for the S&P 500 Index companies are carefully
                              reviewed on a weekly basis, and when appropriate, an immediate adjustment is made to the
                              Index Divisor.

                              information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, the Nihon Keizai
                              Shimbun, Inc., which is commonly referred to as Nikkei. Nikkei has no obligation to
                              continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Nikkei 225 Index.

                              The Nikkei 225 Index is a stock index calculated, published and disseminated by Nikkei
                              that measures the composite price performance of selected Japanese stocks. The Nikkei 225
                              Index currently is based on 225 underlying stocks (the "Underlying Stocks") trading on the
                              Tokyo Stock Exchange (the "TSE") representing a broad cross-section of Japanese
                              industries. Stocks listed in the First Section of the TSE are among the most actively
                              traded stocks on the TSE. All 225 Underlying Stocks are stocks listed in the First Section
                              of the TSE. Nikkei rules require that the 75 most liquid issues (one-third of the
                              component count of the Nikkei 225 Index) be included in the Nikkei 225 Index.

                              The 225 companies included in the Nikkei 225 Index are divided into six sector categories:
                              Technology, Financials, Consumer Goods, Materials, Capital Goods/Others and Transportation
                              and Utilities. These six sector categories are further divided into 36 industrial
                              classifications as follows:

                              o    Technology -- Pharmaceuticals, Electrical machinery, Automobiles, Precision
                                   machinery, Telecommunications

                              o    Financials -- Banks, Miscellaneous finance, Securities, Insurance

                              o    Consumer Goods -- Marine products, Food, Retail, Services

                              o    Materials -- Mining, Textiles, Paper & pulp, Chemicals, Oil, Rubber, Ceramics, Steel,
                                   Nonferrous metals, Trading House

                              o    Capital Goods/Others -- Construction, Machinery, Shipbuilding, Transportation
                                   equipment, Miscellaneous manufacturing, Real estate

                              o    Transportation and Utilities -- Railroads & Buses, Trucking, Shipping, Airlines,
                                   Warehousing, Electric power, Gas

                              The Nikkei 225 Index is a modified, price-weighted index (i.e., an Underlying Stock's
                              weight in the index is based on its price per share rather than the total market
                              capitalization of the issuer) which is calculated by (i) multiplying the per share price
                              of each Underlying Stock by the corresponding weighting factor for such Underlying Stock
                              (a "Weight Factor"), (ii) calculating the sum of all these products and (iii) dividing
                              such sum by a divisor (the "Divisor"). The Divisor was initially set at 225 for the date
                              of May 16, 1949 using historical numbers from May 16, 1949, the date on which the Tokyo
                              Stock Exchange was reopened. The Divisor was 23.947 as of October 1, 2004 and is subject
                              to periodic adjustments as set forth below. Each Weight Factor is computed by dividing
                              (Y)50 by the par value of the relevant Underlying Stock, so that the share price of each
                              Underlying Stock when multiplied by its Weight Factor corresponds to a share price based
                              on a uniform par value of (Y)50. The stock prices

                              used in the calculation of the Nikkei 225 Index are those reported by a primary market for
                              the Underlying Stocks (currently the TSE). The level of the Nikkei 225 Index is calculated
                              once per minute during TSE trading hours.

                              In order to maintain continuity in the Nikkei 225 Index in the event of certain changes
                              due to non-market factors affecting the Underlying Stocks, such as the addition or
                              deletion of stocks, substitution of stocks, stock splits or distributions of assets to
                              stockholders, the Divisor used in calculating the Nikkei 225 Index is adjusted in a manner
                              designed to prevent any instantaneous change or discontinuity in the level of the Nikkei
                              225 Index. Thereafter, the Divisor remains at the new value until a further adjustment is
                              necessary as the result of another change. As a result of such change affecting any
                              Underlying Stock, the Divisor is adjusted in such a way that the sum of all share prices
                              immediately after such change multiplied by the applicable Weight Factor and divided by
                              the new Divisor (i.e., the level of the Nikkei 225 Index immediately after such change)
                              will equal the level of the Nikkei 225 Index immediately prior to the change.

                              An Underlying Stock may be deleted or added by Nikkei. Any stock becoming ineligible for
                              listing in the First Section of the TSE due to any of the following reasons will be
                              deleted from the Underlying Stocks: (i) bankruptcy of the issuer, (ii) merger of the
                              issuer with, or acquisition of the issuer by, another company, (iii) delisting of such
                              stock, (iv) transfer of such stock to the "Seiri-Post" because of excess debt of the
                              issuer or because of any other reason or (v) transfer of such stock to the Second Section.
                              In addition, a component stock transferred to the "Kanri-Post" (Posts for stocks under
                              supervision) is in principle a candidate for deletion. Underlying Stocks with relatively
                              low liquidity, based on trading value and rate of price fluctuation over the past five
                              years, may be deleted by Nikkei. Upon deletion of a stock from the Underlying Stocks,
                              Nikkei will select a replacement for such deleted Underlying Stock in accordance with
                              certain criteria. In an exceptional case, a newly listed stock in the First Section of the
                              TSE that is recognized by Nikkei to be representative of a market may be added to the
                              Underlying Stocks. In such a case, an existing Underlying Stock with low trading volume
                              and deemed not to be representative of a market will be deleted by Nikkei.

                              A list of the issuers of the Underlying Stocks constituting Nikkei 225 Index is available
                              from the Nikkei Economic Electronic Databank System and from the Stock Market Indices Data
                              Book published by Nikkei. Nikkei may delete, add or substitute any stock underlying the
                              Nikkei 225 Index. Nikkei first calculated and published the Nikkei 225 Index in 1970.

                              herein as a "Successor Index"), then any subsequent Index Closing Value will be determined
                              by reference to the value of such Successor Index published following the regular official
                              weekday close of trading for the Successor Index on the date that any Index Closing Value
                              is to be determined, and any intraday value will be determined by reference to such
                              Successor Index.

                              Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Index, the Calculation Agent
                              will cause written notice thereof to be furnished to the Trustee, to Morgan Stanley and to
                              DTC, as holder of the RELAYS, within three Trading Days of such selection. We expect that
                              such notice will be passed on to you, as a beneficial owner of the RELAYS, in accordance
                              with the standard rules and procedures of DTC and its direct and indirect participants.

                              If S&P or Nikkei discontinues publication of the S&P 500 Index or Nikkei 225 Index prior
                              to, and such discontinuance is continuing on, any Determination Date or any interim date
                              on which either index falls to or below its specified Trigger Level and MS & Co., as the
                              Calculation Agent, determines, in its sole discretion, that no Successor Index is
                              available at such time, then the Calculation Agent will determine the Index Closing Value
                              for such date. Following any such determination, the Calculation Agent will not compute
                              the intraday values on any Trading Day and will instead rely on the Index Closing Value as
                              computed by the Calculation Agent for the purpose of determining whether the index falls
                              to or below its specified Trigger Level. The Index Closing Value will be computed by the
                              Calculation Agent in accordance with the formula for calculating the S&P 500 Index or
                              Nikkei 225 Index last in effect prior to such discontinuance, using the closing price (or,
                              if trading in the relevant securities has been materially suspended or materially limited,

                              suspension or limitation) at the close of the principal trading session of the Relevant
                              Exchange on such date of each security most recently comprising the S&P 500 Index or
                              Nikkei 225 Index without any rebalancing or substitution of such securities following such
                              discontinuance. Notwithstanding these alternative arrangements, discontinuance of the
                              publication of the S&P 500 Index or Nikkei 225 Index may adversely affect the value of the
                              RELAYS.

                              If at any time the method of calculating the S&P 500 Index, Nikkei 225 Index or a
                              Successor Index, or the value thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if the S&P 500
                              Index, Nikkei 225 Index or a Successor Index is in any other way modified so that such
                              index does not, in the opinion of MS & Co., as the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the
                              value of the S&P 500 Index, Nikkei 225 Index or such Successor Index had such changes or
                              modifications not been made, then, from and after such time, the Calculation Agent will,
                              at the close of business in New York City on the date on which the Index Closing Value is

                              the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a value of a stock index

                              to the S&P 500 Index, Nikkei 225 Index or such Successor Index, as the case may be, as if
                              such changes or modifications had not been made, and the Calculation Agent will calculate
                              the Index Closing Values with reference to the S&P 500 Index, Nikkei 225 Index or such
                              Successor Index, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the S&P 500 Index,
                              Nikkei 225 Index or a Successor Index is modified so that the value of such index is a
                              fraction of what it would have been if it had not been modified (e.g., due to a split in
                              the index), then the Calculation Agent will adjust such index in order to arrive at a
                              value of the S&P 500 Index, Nikkei 225 Index or such Successor Index as if it had not been
                              modified (e.g., as if such split had not occurred).

Historical Information.....   The following tables set forth the published high and low Index Closing Values, as well as
                              end-of-quarter Index Closing Values, for each quarter in the period from January 1, 2001
                              through February 21, 2006 with respect to the S&P 500 Index and through February 22, 2006
                              with respect to the Nikkei 225 Index. The Index Closing Value of the S&P 500 Index on
                              February 21, 2006 was 1,283.04. The Index Closing Value of the Nikkei 225 Index on
                              February 22, 2006 was 15,781.78. We obtained the information in the tables below from
                              Bloomberg Financial Markets, without independent verification.

                              The historical values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index should not be taken as
                              an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the levels of the
                              S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on any Determination Date.

                              The value of the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index may decrease to or below its
                              specified Trigger Level at any time on any Trading Day on which there is no Market
                              Disruption Event from but excluding the Pricing Date to and including the final
                              Determination Date and either index may close on the final Determination Date below its
                              Initial Index Value so that the Payment at Maturity will be less than the principal amount
                              of the RELAYS. We cannot give you any assurance that the value of the S&P 500 Index and
                              the Nikkei 225 Index will both increase so that at maturity or early redemption you will
                              receive a payment in excess of the principal amount of the RELAYS. Your return is linked
                              to the value of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index on the Determination Dates and,
                              in certain circumstances, over the period from but excluding the Pricing Date to and
                              including the final Determination Date.

                              If the RELAYS have not previously been automatically redeemed, and either the S&P 500
                              Index or the Nikkei 225 Index has decreased to or below its specified Trigger Level at any
                              time on any date from but excluding the Pricing Date to and including the final
                              Determination Date and the Final Index Value of either the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225
                              Index is less than its Initial Index Value, you will lose money on your investment.

Use of Proceeds and
  Hedging..................   The net proceeds we receive from the sale of the RELAYS will be used for general corporate
                              purposes and, in part, by us in connection with hedging our obligations under the RELAYS
                              through one or more of our subsidiaries. The original issue price of the RELAYS includes
                              the Agent's Commissions (as shown on the cover page of this pricing supplement) paid with
                              respect to the RELAYS and the cost of hedging our obligations under the RELAYS. The cost
                              of hedging includes the projected profit that our subsidiaries expect to realize in
                              consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging transactions. Since
                              hedging our obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our or
                              our subsidiaries' control, such hedging may result in a profit that is more or less than
                              initially projected, or could result in a loss.. See also "Use of Proceeds" in the
                              accompanying prospectus.

                              On or prior to February 22, 2006, the date immediately succeeding the Pricing Date, we,
                              through our subsidiaries or others, hedged our anticipated exposure in connection with the
                              RELAYS by taking positions in the futures and options contracts on the S&P 500 Index and
                              the Nikkei 225 Index. Such purchase activity could potentially have increased the value of
                              the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index, and therefore effectively increased the level
                              at which the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225 Index that must prevail on the Determination
                              Dates before you would receive upon an early redemption or at maturity a payment that
                              exceeds the principal amount of the RELAYS. In addition, through our subsidiaries, we are
                              likely to modify our hedge position throughout the life of the RELAYS, including on the
                              Determination Dates, by purchasing and selling the stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index and
                              the Nikkei 225 Index, futures or options contracts or exchange traded funds on the S&P 500
                              Index and the Nikkei 225 Index or their component stocks listed on major securities
                              markets or positions in any other available securities or instruments that we may wish to
                              use in connection with such hedging activities, including by selling any such securities
                              or instruments on one or more Determination Dates. We cannot give any assurance that our
                              hedging activities will not affect the values of the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225
                              Index and, therefore, adversely affect the value of the RELAYS or the payment that you
                              will receive at maturity.

Supplemental Information
  Concerning Plan of
  Distribution.............   Under the terms and subject to conditions contained in the U.S. distribution agreement
                              referred to in the prospectus supplement under "Plan of Distribution," the Agent, acting
                              as principal for its own account, has agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell, the
                              principal amount of RELAYS set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement. The Agent
                              proposes initially to offer the RELAYS directly to the public at the public offering price
                              set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement plus accrued interest, if any, from
                              the Original Issue Date. The Agent may allow a concession not in excess of $15 per Relay
                              to other dealers, which may include Morgan Stanley DW, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co.
                              International Limited and Bank Morgan Stanley AG. We expect to deliver the RELAYS against
                              payment therefor in New

                              may vary the offering price and other selling terms from time to time.

                              In order to facilitate the offering of the RELAYS, the Agent may engage in transactions
                              that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the RELAYS or the level of the
                              S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index. Specifically, the Agent may sell more RELAYS than
                              it is obligated to purchase in connection with the offering or may sell individual stocks
                              underlying the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index it does not own, creating a naked
                              short position in the RELAYS or the individual stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index or the
                              Nikkei 225 Index, respectively, for its own account. The Agent must close out any naked
                              short position by purchasing the RELAYS or the individual stocks underlying the S&P 500
                              Index or the Nikkei 225 Index in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to
                              be created if the Agent is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of
                              the RELAYS or the individual stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225 Index
                              in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the
                              offering. As an additional means of facilitating the offering, the Agent may bid for, and
                              purchase, RELAYS or the individual stocks underlying the S&P 500 Index or the Nikkei 225
                              Index in the open market to stabilize the price of the RELAYS. Any of these activities may
                              raise or maintain the market price of the RELAYS above independent market levels or
                              prevent or retard a decline in the market price of the RELAYS. The Agent is not required
                              to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time. An
                              affiliate of the Agent has entered into a hedging transaction in connection with this
                              offering of the RELAYS. See "--Use of Proceeds and Hedging" above.

                              General

License Agreement between
  S&P and Morgan Stanley...   S&P and Morgan Stanley have entered into a non-exclusive license agreement providing for
                              the license to Morgan Stanley, and certain of its affiliated or subsidiary companies, in
                              exchange for a fee, of the right to use the S&P 500 Index, which is owned and published by
                              S&P, in connection with securities, including the RELAYS.

                              The license agreement between S&P and Morgan Stanley provides that the following language
                              must be set forth in this pricing supplement:

                              The RELAYS are not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by S&P. S&P makes no
                              representation or warranty, express or implied, to the owners of the RELAYS or any member

                              RELAYS particularly or the ability of the S&P 500 Index to track general stock market
                              performance. S&P's only relationship to us is the licensing of certain trademarks and
                              trade names of S&P and of the S&P 500 Index, which is determined, composed and calculated
                              by S&P without regard to us or the RELAYS. S&P has no obligation to take our needs or the
                              needs of the owners of the RELAYS into consideration in determining, composing or
                              calculating the S&P 500 Index. S&P is not responsible for and has not participated in the
                              determination of the timing of, prices at, or quantities of the RELAYS to be issued or in
                              the determination or calculation of the equation by which the RELAYS are to be converted
                              into cash. S&P has no obligation or liability in connection with the administration,
                              marketing or trading of the RELAYS.

                              S&P DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY AND/OR THE COMPLETENESS OF THE S&P 500 INDEX OR ANY
                              DATA INCLUDED THEREIN. S&P MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO RESULTS TO BE

License Agreement between
  Nikkei and Morgan
  Stanley..................   As of the Settlement Date, we will have received the consent of Nikkei, the publisher of
                              the Nikkei 225 Index, to use and refer to the Nikkei 225 Index in connection with the

ERISA Matters for Pension
  Plans and Insurance
  Companies................   Each fiduciary of a pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan subject to the
                              Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") (a "Plan"), should
                              consider the fiduciary standards of ERISA in the context of the Plan's particular
                              circumstances before authorizing an investment in the RELAYS. Accordingly, among other
                              factors, the fiduciary should consider whether the investment would satisfy the prudence
                              and diversification requirements of ERISA and would be consistent with the documents and
                              instruments governing the Plan.

                              In addition, we and certain of our subsidiaries and affiliates, including MS & Co. and
                              Morgan Stanley DW Inc. (formerly Dean Witter Reynolds Inc.) ("MSDWI"), may be each
                              considered a "party in interest" within the meaning of ERISA, or a "disqualified person"
                              within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), with
                              respect to many Plans, as well as many individual retirement accounts and Keogh plans
                              (also "Plans"). Prohibited transactions within the meaning


                                                         PS-31

========================================================================================================================



                              of ERISA or the Code would likely arise, for example, if the RELAYS are acquired by or
                              with the assets of a Plan with respect to which MS & Co., MSDWI or any of their affiliates
                              is a service provider or other party in interest, unless the RELAYS are acquired pursuant
                              to an exemption from the "prohibited transaction" rules. A violation of these prohibited
                              transaction rules could result in an excise tax or other liabilities under ERISA and/or
                              Section 4975 of the Code for such persons, unless exemptive relief is available under an
                              applicable statutory or administrative exemption.

                              The U.S. Department of Labor has issued five prohibited transaction class exemptions
                              ("PTCEs") that may provide exemptive relief for direct or indirect prohibited transactions
                              resulting from the purchase or holding of the RELAYS. Those class exemptions are PTCE
                              96-23 (for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), PTCE 95-60 (for
                              certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 91-38 (for
                              certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 90-1 (for certain
                              transactions involving insurance company separate accounts) and PTCE 84-14 (for certain
                              transactions determined by independent qualified asset managers).

                              Because we may be considered a party in interest with respect to many Plans, the RELAYS
                              may not be purchased, held or disposed of by any Plan, any entity whose underlying assets
                              include "plan assets" by reason of any Plan's investment in the entity (a "Plan Asset
                              Entity") or any person investing "plan assets" of any Plan, unless such purchase, holding
                              or disposition is eligible for exemptive relief, including relief available under PTCE
                              96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1, or 84-14 or such purchase, holding or disposition is otherwise
                              not prohibited. Any purchaser, including any fiduciary purchasing on behalf of a Plan,
                              transferee or holder of the RELAYS will be deemed to have represented, in its corporate
                              and its fiduciary capacity, by its purchase and holding of the RELAYS that either (a) it
                              is not a Plan or a Plan Asset Entity and is not purchasing such securities on behalf of or
                              with "plan assets" of any Plan or with any assets of a governmental or church plan that is
                              subject to any federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to the provisions
                              of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) its purchase, holding and
                              disposition are eligible for exemptive relief or such purchase, holding and disposition
                              are not prohibited by ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or in the case of a governmental
                              or church plan, any substantially similar federal, state or local law).

                              Under ERISA, assets of a Plan may include assets held in the general account of an
                              insurance company which has issued an insurance policy to such plan or assets of an entity
                              in which the Plan has invested. Accordingly, insurance company general accounts that
                              include assets of a Plan must ensure that one of the foregoing exemptions is available.
                              Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties that may be imposed upon persons
                              involved in non-exempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that
                              fiduciaries or other persons considering purchasing

United States Federal
  Income Taxation..........   The following summary is based on the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell, our special tax
                              counsel ("Tax Counsel"), and is a general discussion of the principal U.S. federal income
                              tax consequences to initial investors in the RELAYS that (i) purchase the RELAYS at the
                              Issue Price and (ii) will hold the RELAYS as capital assets within the meaning of Section
                              1221 of the Code. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, this summary is based on the
                              Code, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and currently effective and
                              proposed Treasury regulations, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this
                              pricing supplement may affect the tax consequences described herein. This discussion does
                              not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to an
                              investor in light of the investor's particular circumstances or to investors that are
                              subject to special rules, such as:

                              o    tax-exempt organizations;

                              o    certain financial institutions;

                              o    real estate investment trusts;

                              o    dealers and certain traders in options, securities or foreign currencies;

                              o    persons who hold a RELAYS as part of a hedging transaction, straddle, conversion or
                                   other integrated transaction;

                              o    U.S. Holders, as defined below, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

                              o    partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships;

                              o    nonresident alien individuals who have lost their United States citizenship or who
                                   have ceased to be taxed as United States resident aliens;

                              o    corporations that are treated as controlled foreign corporations or passive foreign
                                   investment companies;

                              o    Non-U.S. Holders, as defined below, that are owned or controlled by persons subject
                                   to U.S. federal income tax;

                              o    Non-U.S. Holders for whom income or gain in respect of a RELAYS is effectively
                                   connected with a trade or business in the United States; and

                              o    Non-U.S. Holders who are individuals having a "tax home" (as defined in Section
                                   911(d)(3) of the Code) in the United States.

                              If you are considering purchasing the RELAYS, you are urged to consult your own tax
                              advisor with regard to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to your
                              particular situation as well as any tax consequences arising under U.S. federal estate tax
                              law or the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.

                              General

                              In the opinion of Tax Counsel, which is based on certain representations received from us
                              (including the existence of a substantial risk that an initial investor will lose a
                              significant amount of its investment), the purchase and ownership of a RELAYS should be
                              treated as an "open transaction" with respect to the S&P 500 Index and the Nikkei 225
                              Index for U.S. federal income tax purposes. While other characterizations of the RELAYS
                              could be asserted by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), as discussed below, the
                              following discussion assumes that this characterization of the RELAYS will be respected.

                              U.S. Holders

                              This section only applies to you if you are a U.S. Holder and is only a brief summary of
                              the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the RELAYS.
                              As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a RELAYS that is for
                              U.S. federal income tax purposes:

                              o    a citizen or resident of the United States;

                              o    a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States or any
                                   political subdivision thereof; or

                              o    an estate or trust the income of which is subject to United States federal income
                                   taxation regardless of its source.

                              Tax Treatment of the RELAYS

                              Assuming the characterization of the RELAYS as set forth above, Tax Counsel believes that
                              the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result.

                              Tax Basis. A U.S. Holder's tax basis in a RELAYS will equal the amount paid by the U.S.
                              Holder to acquire the RELAYS.

                              Settlement of a RELAYS at Maturity. Upon receipt of cash at maturity, a U.S. Holder will
                              recognize long-term capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of
                              cash received and the U.S. Holder's tax basis in the RELAYS.

                              Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Disposition of a RELAYS. Upon a sale, exchange,
                              redemption or other disposition of a RELAYS prior to its maturity, a U.S. Holder will
                              recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the
                              sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition and the U.S. Holder's tax basis in the
                              RELAYS sold, exchanged, redeemed or otherwise disposed. This gain or loss will generally
                              be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held the RELAYS for more than one
                              year at the time of disposition.

========================================================================================================================



                              Possible Alternative Tax Treatments of an Investment in the RELAYS

                              Due to the absence of authorities that directly address the proper tax treatment of the
                              RELAYS, no assurance can be given that the IRS will accept, or that a court will uphold,
                              the characterization and treatment described above. In particular, the IRS could seek to
                              analyze the U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning the RELAYS under Treasury
                              regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments (the "Contingent Payment
                              Regulations").

                              If the IRS were successful in asserting that the Contingent Payment Regulations applied to
                              the RELAYS, the timing and character of income thereon would be significantly affected.
                              Among other things, a U.S. Holder would be required to accrue original issue discount on
                              the RELAYS every year at a "comparable yield" determined at the time of their issuance.
                              Furthermore, any gain realized by a U.S. Holder at maturity or upon a sale, exchange,
                              redemption or other disposition of the RELAYS would generally be treated as ordinary
                              income, and any loss realized at maturity would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent
                              of the U.S. Holder's prior accruals of original issue discount, and as capital loss
                              thereafter.

                              Even if the Contingent Payment Regulations do not apply to the RELAYS, other alternative
                              U.S. federal income tax characterizations of the RELAYS are possible which, if applied,
                              could also affect the timing and character of the income or loss with respect to the
                              RELAYS. Accordingly, prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors
                              regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the
                              RELAYS.

                              Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

                              A U.S. Holder of the RELAYS may be subject to backup withholding in respect of amounts
                              paid to the U.S. Holder, unless the U.S. Holder provides proof of an applicable exemption
                              or a correct taxpayer identification number, or otherwise complies with applicable
                              requirements of the backup withholding rules. The amounts withheld under the backup
                              withholding rules are not an additional tax and may be refunded, or credited against the
                              U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is
                              furnished to the IRS. In addition, a U.S. Holder may also be subject to information
                              reporting in respect of the amounts paid to the U.S. Holder, unless the U.S. Holder
                              provides proof of an applicable exemption from the information reporting rules.

                              Non-U.S. Holders

                              This section only applies to you if you are a Non-U.S. Holder. As used herein, the term
                              "Non-U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a RELAYS that is for U.S. federal income tax
                              purposes:



                                                         PS-35

========================================================================================================================



                              o    a nonresident alien individual;

                              o    a foreign corporation; or

                              o    a foreign trust or estate.

                              A Non-U.S. Holder of a RELAYS generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income,
                              withholding or backup withholding tax, provided that the Non-U.S. Holder complies with
                              certain certification procedures establishing that it is not a United States person for
                              U.S. federal income tax purposes (e.g., by providing a completed IRS Form W-8BEN
                              certifying, under penalties of perjury, that such Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States
                              person) or otherwise establishes an exemption. Information returns may be filed with the
                              IRS in connection with the payments on the RELAYS at maturity as well as in connection
                              with the payment of the proceeds from a sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition.

                              If the RELAYS were recharacterized as debt instruments, any interest paid to a Non-U.S.
                              Holder with respect to the RELAYS would not be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax,
                              provided that the certification requirements described above were satisfied and such
                              Non-U.S. Holder did not own, actually or constructively, 10 percent or more of the total
                              combined voting power of all classes of stock of Morgan Stanley entitled to vote and was
                              not a bank receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code.
