New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $3.87 million more leveraged CMS curve notes on S&P, Russell

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Oct. 4 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $3,872,000 of additional fixed-to-floating securities due Sept. 29, 2037 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

This brings the total size of the issue to $6,372,000. The initial $2.5 million priced on Sept. 5.

The coupon will be fixed at 16% for the first year. After that, interest will accrue at an annual rate equal to 10 times the spread of the 30-year ICE swap rate minus the two-year ICE swap rate for each day that each index closes at or above its 75% reference level, up to a maximum rate of 10% per year. Interest is payable monthly and cannot be less than zero.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below the 70% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of worse performing index.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
