Knock-Out Notes Based on the Price of Palladium due October 2, 2014 Principal at Risk Securities Free Writing Prospectus Filed pursuant to Rule 433 Registration Statement No. 333-178081 September 17, 2013 PAYOFF DIAGRAM KEY TERMS Palladium Return 4.95% 15% Issuer Morgan Stanley Underlying Commodity Palladium Contingent Minimum Return 4.95% Payment at Maturity If a Knock-Out Event HAS NOT occurred, you will receive a cash Payment at Maturity per security equal to $1,000 plus a return equal to $1,000 times the greater of (i) the Contingent Minimum Return and (ii) the Palladium Return, subject to the Maximum Payment at Maturity. If a Knock-Out Event HAS occurred, you will receive a cash Payment at Maturity that will reflect the percentage depreciation in the Palladium Price on a 1 to 1 basis. Under these circumstances, your Payment at Maturity per $1,000 principal amount security will be calculated as follows: $1,000 + ($1,000 x Palladium Return) If a knock-Out Event occurs, the Palladium Return will be less than -20% and, therefore, you will lose more than 20%, and possibly all, of your investment. There is no minimum Payment at Maturity. Knock-Out Event A Knock-Out Event occurs if the Final Palladium Price has decreased, as compared to the Initial Palladium Price, by more than the Knock-Out Buffer Amount of 20%. Therefore, a Knock-Out Event will occur if the Final Palladium Price is less than the Knock-Out Level. Palladium Return (Final Palladium Price -- Initial Palladium Price) / Initial Palladium Price Initial Palladium Price The Palladium Price on the Pricing Date Knock-Out Level: 80% of the Initial Palladium Price Knock-Out Buffer Amount 20% Maximum Payment at Maturity: $1,150 per security (115% of the stated principal amount) Palladium Price On any day, the afternoon platinum fixing price per troy ounce fross of platinum for delivery in Zurich through a member of the London Platinum and Palladium Market ("LPPM") authorized to effect such delivery, stated in U.S. dollars, as calculated and published by the LPPM on such date. Final Palladium Price The arithmetic average of the Palladium Prices on each of the five Averaging Dates Averaging Dates September 23, 2014, September 24, 2014, September 25, 2014, September 26, 2014 and September 29, 2014, subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events Maturity Date October 2, 2014, subject to postponement for non-trading days and certain market disruption events Listing The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange Estimated value on the Pricing Approximately $975.80 per security, or within $10.00 of that estimate. See "Summary of Pricing Date: Supplement" in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. CUSIP / ISIN 61762GAF1 / US61762GAF19 The securities are for investors who seek a palladium-based return and who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income and upside above the Maximum Payment at Maturity in exchange for the potential of receiving at least the Contingent Minimum Return if the price of palladium has not declined by more than 20%. If the Final Palladium Price has not declined, as compared to the Initial Palladium Price, by more than 20%, investors will receive, in addition to the principal amount, a return that is the greater of (a) the Contingent Minimum Return of at least 4.95% and (b) the Palladium Return at maturity, subject to the Maximum Payment at Maturity. If the Final Palladium Price has declined by more than 20% from the Initial Palladium Price, the Payment at Maturity will be solely based on the Palladium Return and you will be exposed on a 1 to 1 basis to the negative performance of the price of palladium over the term of the securities. The Payment at Maturity may be less, and potentially significantly less, than the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley maturing October 2, 2014. Minimum purchase amount of $10,000 and minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. All payments are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley. If Morgan Stanley defaults on its obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment. These securities are not secured obligations and you will not have any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets. The securities are expected to price on or about September 20, 2013 and are expected to settle on or about September 25, 2013. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, acting as dealer, will receive from Morgan Stanley and Co. LLC, the agent, a fixed sales commission of 1% for each security it sells. In addition, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will purchase securities from Morgan Stanley and Co. LLC for sales to certain fiduciary accounts at a purchase price to such accounts of 99% of the stated principal amount per security and will forgo any sales commission with respect to such sales. HYPOTHETICAL RETURNS ON THE SECURITIES AT MATURITY Assuming an Initial Palladium Price of $700. The actual Initial Palladium Price will be determined on the Pricing Date.

[] The appreciation potential of the securities is limited by the maximum Payment at Maturity [] Risks associated with an investment linked exclusively to the price of platinum, a single physical precious metal commodity [] The securities are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley [] The amount payable on the securities is not linked to the commodity price at any time other than the averaging dates [] Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying commodity or in futures contracts or forward contracts on the underlying commodity [] Legal and regulatory changes could adversely affect the return on and value of the securities [] The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and secondary trading may be limited [] Additional risk factors can be found in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and the following pages of this document 1 You should read this document together with the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement describing the offering, including the overview of the underlying commodity and its historical performance, before you decide to invest.

Knock-Out Notes Based on the Price of Palladium due October 2, 2014 Principal at Risk Securities Risk Factors An investment in the securities involves significant risks. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in platinum. These risks are explained in more detail in the "Risk Factors" section of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the securities. []THE SECURITIES DO NOT PAY INTEREST OR GUARANTEE A RETURN OF ANY PRINCIPAL AT MATURITY-- The terms of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that we do not guarantee to pay you the principal amount of the securities at maturity and do not pay you interest on the securities. If a Knock-Out Event occurs, meaning the Final Palladium Price has declined from the Initial Palladium Price by more than the Knock-Out Buffer Amount of 20%, you will be fully exposed to any depreciation in the price of platinum. If a Knock-Out Event has occurred, because the Palladium Return will be less than -20% in this scenario, the Payment at Maturity on each security will be less than 80% of the stated principal amount of the securities. There is no minimum Payment at Maturity and consequently, the entire principal amount of your investment is at risk. [] YOU WILL LOSE THE BENEFIT OF THE CONTINGENT MINIMUM RETURN IF A KNOCK-OUT EVENT OCCURS -- If a Knock-Out Event occurs, the Payment at Maturity will be limited to the performance of the price of platinum and you will lose the benefit of the Contingent Minimum Return. As a result, you will be exposed on a 1 to 1 basis to any decline in the price of platinum. [] YOUR APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IS LIMITED -- The appreciation potential of the securities will be limited by the Maximum Payment at Maturity. The Payment at Maturity will never exceed the Maximum Payment at Maturity even if the Final Palladium Price is substantially greater than the Initial Palladium Price. [] THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO THE CREDIT RISK OF MORGAN STANLEY, AND ANY ACTUAL OR ANTICIPATED CHANGES TO ITS CREDIT RATINGS OR CREDIT SPREADS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OF THE SECURITIES -- You are dependent on Morgan Stanley's ability to pay all amounts due on the securities at maturity, and therefore you are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley. If Morgan Stanley defaults on its obligations under the securities, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the securities prior to maturity will be affected by changes in the market's view of Morgan Stanley's creditworthiness. Any actual or anticipated decline in Morgan Stanley's credit ratings or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking Morgan Stanley credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the securities. [] MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES -- Several factors, many of which are beyond our control, will influence the value of the securities in the secondary market and the price at which Morgan Stanley and Co. LLC, which we refer to as MS and Co. , may be willing to purchase or sell the securities in the secondary market. We expect that generally the Palladium Price on any day will affect the value of the securities more than any other single factor. However, because the payout on the securities is not directly correlated to the Palladium Price, the securities will trade differently from platinum. Other factors that may influence the value of the securities include: [] the market price of platinum and futures contracts on platinum, including in relation to the Knock-Out Buffer Amount, and the volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value) of such prices; [] trends of supply and demand for platinum generally; [] interest and yield rates in the market generally; [] geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect platinum or commodities markets generally and which may affect the Palladium Price; [] the time remaining until the maturity of the securities; and [] any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or credit spreads. Some or all of these factors will influence the price that you will receive if you are able to sell your securities prior to maturity. For example, you may have to sell your securities at a substantial loss if the price of platinum has declined and especially if a Knock-Out Event is likely to occur in light of the then-current Palladium Price. You cannot predict the future prices of platinum based on its historical prices. The Palladium Price may decrease by more than the Knock-Out Buffer Amount such that you will be exposed on a 1 to 1 basis to any decline in the price of platinum and, as a result, you may lose some or all of your investment at maturity. There can be no assurance that the Final Palladium Price will increase or that a Knock-Out Event will not occur so that you do not suffer a loss on your initial investment in the securities. [] THE RETURN ON THE SECURITIES IS LINKED TO A SINGLE COMMODITY, AND THE PRICE OF PLATINUM MAY CHANGE UNPREDICTABLY AND AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES IN UNFORESEEABLE WAYS -- Investments, such as the securities, linked to the price of a single commodity, such as platinum, are subject to sharp fluctuations in the prices of the commodity over short periods of time for a variety of factors. The price of palladium has fluctuated widely over the past several years. Because the palladium supply is both limited and concentrated, any disruptions in the supply of palladium tend to have a disproportionate effect on the price of palladium. Key factors that may influence prices are the mining policies and production costs in the most important palladium-producing countries, in particular, Russia, South Africa, the United States and Canada (which together account for over 90% of production), the size and availability of palladium stockpiles, global supply and demand as well as the level of economic activity of the main consuming countries. Investments in exchange-traded notes and funds linked to the price of palladium may also have an impact on palladium prices. The possibility of large-scale distress sales of palladium in times of crisis may also have a short-term negative impact on the price of palladium. For example, the 2008 financial crisis resulted in significantly depressed prices of palladium largely due to sales from institutional investors such as hedge funds and pension funds. Palladium is used in a variety of industries, in particular the automotive industry. Demand for palladium from the automotive industry, which uses palladium in catalytic converters, accounts for more than 50% of the industrial use of palladium, and a decline in the global automotive industry may impact the price of palladium. Palladium is also used in the electronics, dental and jewelry industries. The price of palladium may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. [] SINGLE COMMODITY PRICES TEND TO BE MORE VOLATILE THAN, AND MAY NOT CORRELATE WITH, THE PRICES OF COMMODITIES GENERALLY -- The Payment at Maturity on the securities is linked exclusively to the price of platinum and not to a diverse basket of commodities or a broad-based commodity index. The price of platinum may not correlate to the price of commodities generally and may diverge significantly from the prices of commodities generally. Because the securities are linked to the price of a single commodity, they carry greater risk and may be more volatile than a security linked to the prices of multiple commodities or a broad-based commodity index. The price of platinum may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. [] THE AMOUNT PAYABLE ON THE SECURITIES IS NOT LINKED TO THE PRICE OF PLATINUM AT ANY TIME OTHER THAN THE AVERAGING DATES -- The Final Palladium Price will be based on the Palladium Price on the five Averaging Dates, subject to adjustment for non-trading days and certain market disruption events. Even if platinum appreciates prior to the Averaging Dates but then drops by the Averaging Dates, the Payment at Maturity may be less, and may be significantly less, than it would have been had the Payment at Maturity been linked to the Palladium Price prior to such drop. Although the actual Palladium Price on the stated Maturity Date or at other times during the term of the securities may be higher than the Final Palladium Price, the Payment at Maturity will be based solely on the Palladium Price on the Averaging Dates. 2

Knock-Out Notes Based on the Price of Palladium due October 2, 2014 Principal at Risk Securities Risk Factors [] THE SECURITIES WILL NOT BE LISTED AND SECONDARY TRADING MAY BE LIMITED -- The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. MS and Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the securities and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so at any time. When it does make a market, it will generally do so for transactions of routine secondary market size at prices based on its estimate of the current value of the securities, taking into account its bid/offer spread, our credit spreads, market volatility, the notional size of the proposed sale, the cost of unwinding any related hedging positions, the time remaining to maturity and the likelihood that it will be able to resell the securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities easily. Since other broker-dealers may not participate significantly in the secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which MS and Co. is willing to transact. If, at any time, MS and Co. were to cease making a market in the securities, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the securities. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities to maturity. [] HEDGING AND TRADING ACTIVITY BY OUR SUBSIDIARIES COULD POTENTIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES -- One or more of our subsidiaries and/or third-party dealers expect to carry out hedging activities related to the securities (and possibly to other instruments linked to the price of platinum), including trading in related futures, forwards and/or options contracts as well as in other instruments related to platinum. Some of our subsidiaries also trade platinum and other financial instruments related to platinum on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer, commodity trading, proprietary trading and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the Pricing Date could increase the Initial Palladium Price and, as a result, could increase the level above which the Palladium Price must be on the Averaging Dates so that you do not suffer a loss on your initial investment in the securities. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the securities could potentially affect the Palladium Price, including the Palladium Price on the Averaging Dates, and whether a Knock-Out Event occurs, and, accordingly, the amount of cash, if any, you will receive upon a sale of the securities or at maturity. [] THE RATE WE ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR SECURITIES OF THIS TYPE, MATURITY AND ISSUANCE SIZE IS LIKELY TO BE LOWER THAN THE RATE IMPLIED BY OUR SECONDARY MARKET CREDIT SPREADS AND ADVANTAGEOUS TO US. BOTH THE LOWER RATE AND THE INCLUSION OF COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ISSUING, SELLING, STRUCTURING AND HEDGING THE SECURITIES IN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE REDUCE THE ECONOMIC TERMS OF THE SECURITIES, CAUSE THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE SECURITIES TO BE LESS THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE AND WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT SECONDARY MARKET PRICES-- Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the prices, if any, at which dealers, including MS and Co. , may be willing to purchase the securities in secondary market transactions will likely be significantly lower than the original issue price, because secondary market prices will exclude the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging-related costs that are included in the original issue price and borne by you and because the secondary market prices will reflect our secondary market credit spreads and the bid-offer spread that any dealer would charge in a secondary market transaction of this type as well as other factors. The inclusion of the costs of issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities in the original issue price and the lower rate we are willing to pay as issuer make the economic terms of the securities less favorable to you than they otherwise would be. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the securities are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 6 months following the Issue Date, to the extent that MS and Co. may buy or sell the securities in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those related to the Underlying Commodity, and to our secondary market credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the estimated value, and we expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements. [] THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE SECURITIES IS DETERMINED BY REFERENCE TO OUR PRICING AND VALUATION MODELS, WHICH MAY DIFFER FROM THOSE OF OTHER DEALERS AND IS NOT A MAXIMUM OR MINIMUM SECONDARY MARKET PRICE-- These pricing and valuation models are proprietary and rely in part on subjective views of certain market inputs and certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, because there is no market-standard way to value these types of securities, our models may yield a higher estimated value of the securities than those generated by others, including other dealers in the market, if they attempted to value the securities. In addition, the estimated value on the Pricing Date does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which dealers, including MS and Co. , would be willing to purchase your securities in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your securities at any time after the date of this pricing supplement will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including our creditworthiness and changes in market conditions. See also "Many economic and market factors will impact the value of the securities" above. [] THE OFFERING OF THE SECURITIES MAY BE TERMINATED BEFORE THE PRICING DATE -- If we determine prior to pricing that it is not reasonable to treat your purchase and ownership of the securities as an "open transaction" for U. S. federal income tax purposes, the offering of the securities will be terminated. [] THE CALCULATION AGENT, WHICH IS A SUBSIDIARY OF THE ISSUER, WILL MAKE DETERMINATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES -- As calculation agent, MSCG will determine the Initial Palladium price, the Final Palladium Price and whether a Knock-Out Event or a market disruption event has occurred, and will calculate the amount of cash you will receive at maturity, if any. Any of these determinations made by MSCG in its capacity as calculation agent, including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of market disruption events or calculation of the Palladium Price in the event of a market disruption event, may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity. In addition, MS and Co. has determined the estimated value of the securities on the Pricing Date. [] LEGAL AND REGULATORY CHANGES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE RETURN ON AND VALUE OF YOUR SECURITIES -- Futures contracts and options on futures contracts, including those related to the underlying commodity, are subject to extensive statutes, regulations, and margin requirements. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission, commonly referred to as the "CFTC," and the exchanges on which such futures contracts trade are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency, including, for example, the retroactive implementation of speculative position limits or higher margin requirements, the establishment of daily limits and the suspension of trading. Furthermore, certain exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuations in futures contract prices that may occur during a single five-minute trading period. These limits could adversely affect the market prices of relevant futures and options contracts and forward contracts. The regulation of commodity transactions in the U. S. is subject to ongoing modification by government and judicial action. In addition, various non-U. S. governments have expressed concern regarding the disruptive effects of speculative trading in the commodity markets and the need to regulate the derivative markets in general. The effect on the value of the securities of any future regulatory change is impossible to predict, but could be substantial and adverse to the interests of holders of the securities. For example, the Dodd-Frank Act, which was enacted on July 21, 2010, requires the CFTC to establish limits on the amount of positions that may be held by any person in futures contracts on a commodity, options on such futures contracts and swaps that are economically equivalent to such contracts. The CFTC adopted interim and final position limits that would have applied to a party's combined futures, options and swaps position in any one of 28 physical commodities and economically equivalent futures, options and swaps. These limits would have, among other things, expanded existing position limits applicable to options and futures contracts to apply to swaps and applied them across affiliated and controlled entities and accounts. The CFTC's position limit rules were due to take effect on October 12, 2012, but the U. S. District Court for the District of Columbia vacated the position limit rules and remanded them to the CFTC. The CFTC has appealed the court's decision. If position limit rules are ultimately upheld in an appeal or if substantially similar rules are adopted and implemented by the CFTC, such rules could interfere with our ability to enter into or maintain hedge positions in instruments subject to the limits, and consequently, we may need to decide, or be forced, to sell a portion, possibly a substantial portion, of our hedge position in the underlying commodity or futures contracts on the underlying commodity or related contracts. Similarly, other market participants would be subject to the same regulatory issues and could decide, or be required to, sell their positions in the underlying commodity or futures contracts on the underlying commodity or related contracts. While the effect of these or other regulatory developments are difficult to predict, if this broad market selling were to occur, it would likely lead to declines, possibly significant declines, in the price of the underlying commodity or futures contracts on the underlying commodity and therefore, the value of the securities. 3

Knock-Out Notes Based on the Price of Palladium due October 2, 2014 Principal at Risk Securities Risk Factors [] INVESTING IN THE SECURITIES IS NOT EQUIVALENT TO INVESTING IN FUTURES CONTRACTS OR IN FORWARD CONTRACTS ON PLATINUM -- Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in platinum or in futures contracts or in forward contracts on platinum. By purchasing the securities, you do not purchase any entitlement to platinum, or futures contracts or forward contracts on platinum. Further, by purchasing the securities, you are taking credit risk of Morgan Stanley and not to any counter-party to futures contracts or forward contracts on platinum. [] SUSPENSION OR DISRUPTION OF MARKET TRADING IN COMMODITY AND RELATED FUTURES MARKETS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES -- The commodity markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention. In addition, U.S. futures exchanges and some foreign exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuation in futures contract prices which may occur during a single business day. These limits are generally referred to as "daily price fluctuation limits" and the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a "limit price." Once the limit price has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made at a different price. Limit prices have the effect of precluding trading in a particular contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts at disadvantageous times or prices. These circumstances could adversely affect the value of the underlying commodity and, therefore, the value of the securities. [] THERE ARE RISKS RELATING TO TRADING OF COMMODITIES ON THE LONDON PLATINUM AND PALLADIUM MARKET -- Palladium is traded on the London Platinum and Palladium Market, which we refer to as the LPPM. The price of platinum will be determined by reference to the fixing price reported by the LPPM. The LPPM is a self-regulatory association of bullion market participants. Although all market-making members of the LPPM are supervised by the Bank of England and are required to satisfy a capital adequacy test, the LPPM itself is not a regulated entity. If the LPPM should cease operations, or if bullion trading should become subject to a value added tax or other tax or any other form of regulation currently not in place, the role of LPPM price fixings as a global benchmark for the value of platinum may be adversely affected. The LPPM is a principals' market which operates in a manner more closely analogous to over-the-counter physical commodity markets than regulated futures markets, and certain features of U.S. futures contracts are not present in the context of LPPM trading. For example, there are no daily price limits on the LPPM, which would otherwise restrict fluctuations in the prices of LPPM contracts. In a declining market, it is possible that prices would continue to decline without limitation within a trading day or over a period of trading days. [] UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES -- Please read the discussion of United States federal tax consequences, and any related risk factors, in the preliminary pricing supplement describing the terms of the securities. You can review a graph setting forth the historical performance of the underlying commodity in the preliminary pricing supplement describing the terms of the securities. You cannot predict the future performance of platinum based on its historical performance.
