NOTICE OF CHANGE OF LOCATION OF

2020 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON MAY 21, 2020

 

Dear Shareholder:

 

Due to public health concerns resulting from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and in light of the guidance of local, state and federal governments, NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the location of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Morgan Stanley, to be held on May 21, 2020, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (Annual Meeting), has been changed to a virtual meeting format only, via audio webcast, and will not be held at a physical location (Virtual Annual Meeting).

 

As described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting previously distributed to you, shareholders of record as of March 23, 2020, the record date, are entitled to participate in the Virtual Annual Meeting. To attend and participate in the Virtual Annual Meeting, shareholders should go to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MS2020 and enter their 16-digit control number provided in the proxy card, notice or voting instruction form. Shareholders may vote and submit questions during the Virtual Annual Meeting.

 

Only one shareholder per 16-digit control number can access the Virtual Annual Meeting. Those who are not a shareholder or without a control number may attend the Annual Meeting as guests, but they will not have the ability to participate during the Virtual Annual Meeting. We recommend that shareholders log in to this website and access the webcast 15 minutes in advance of the Virtual Annual Meeting’s start time. An archive will be available on our investor relations site after the Virtual Annual Meeting.

 

Whether or not you plan to attend the Virtual Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance of the meeting using one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. The proxy card included with the proxy materials previously distributed will not be updated to reflect the change to a virtual meeting and may continue to be used to vote your shares in connection with the Virtual Annual Meeting.
