New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $1 million more CMS, S&P 500 accrual notes with conversion right

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, April 26 - Morgan Stanley upsized its leveraged CMS curve and S&P 500 index-linked accrual notes due April 26, 2026 with issuer fixed-rate conversion right by $1 million, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This brings the total amount to $2 million.

The coupon will be 11% for the first year. After that, the rate will accrue at four times the spread of the 30-year Constant Maturity Swap rate over the two-year CMS rate for each day that the S&P 500 closes at or above 975, up to a cap of 12% - unless the issuer chooses to exercise its conversion right, in which case the interest rate will revert to a fixed rate of 11%.

Interest is payable quarterly and cannot be less than zero.

The payout at maturity will be par.

Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc. is the agent.
