New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $783,000 10% autocallables tied to LinkedIn

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Aug. 2 - Morgan Stanley priced $783,000 of 10% fixed income autocallable securities due Aug. 5, 2014 linked to the common stock of LinkedIn Corp., according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable quarterly.

If LinkedIn stock closes at or above the initial price on any of the first three quarterly determination dates, the notes will be automatically called at par plus the coupon.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus the coupon unless the final share price is less than the downside threshold level, 68% of initial price, in which case investors will receive a number of LinkedIn shares equal to $10 divided by the initial share price or, at the issuer's option, a cash amount equal to the value of those shares.
