New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $3.35 million contingent income notes on Russell, Euro Stoxx

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 30 - Morgan Stanley priced $3.35 million of contingent income participation securities due Dec. 26, 2028 linked to the worse performing of the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The coupon will be fixed at 7% for the first five years, payable monthly. After that, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 7% for each month that each index closes at or above its respective barrier level, 50% of the initial level, on the observation date for that month.

If each index finishes at or above its 50% barrier level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final monthly coupon.

Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
