24 Index Glossary INDEX DEFINITIONS BARCLAYS CAPITAL SHORT TREASURY INDEX: The index measures the performance of U.S. Treasury securities that have a remaining maturity between one and twelve months. BARCLAYS CAPITAL US AGGREGATE BOND INDEX: The US Aggregate Index covers the dollar-denominated investment-grade fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, MBS pass through securities, asset-backed securities, and commercial mortgage-based securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific sub-indexes that are calculated and published on an ongoing basis. RUSSELL 3000 INDEX: Russell 3000 Index measures the performance of the 3,000 largest US companies based on total market capitalization, which represents approximately 98% of the investable US equity market. As of the latest reconstitution, the average market capitalization was approximately $86.4 billion; the median market capitalization was approximately $923 million. The index had a total market capitalization range of approximately $540 billion to $101 million. MSCI EAFE INDEX (NET): The MSCI EAFE Index (Europe, Australasia, Far East) (net) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance, excluding the US & Canada.

25 Disclosures The strategies described in this material are currently offered as Firm Discretionary UMA Model Portfolios in Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC s Select UMA Investment Advisory Program. Please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Select UMA Form ADV Wrap Fee Brochure (the Morgan Stanley ADV ) for more information on this Investment Advisory program. The Morgan Stanley ADV is available from your Financial Advisor or online at All investment advisory services of Select UMA are delivered to clients in the United States only by Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC. These materials are intended only for clients and prospective clients in the United States.. Consider Your Own Investment Needs This material is not intended to be a client-specific suitability analysis or recommendation, an offer to participate in any investment, or a recommendation to buy, hold or sell securities (includes securities of Morgan Stanley and/or its affiliates if shown in this material). Do not use this material as the sole basis for investment decisions. Do not select an investment strategy based on performance alone. Consider all relevant information, including your existing portfolio, investment objectives, risk tolerance, liquidity needs and investment time horizon. Performance and Other Portfolio Information Past performance does not guarantee future results. There is no guarantee that these investment strategies will work under all market conditions. As a result of recent market activity, current information may vary from the information shown in this material. Benchmark index Depending on the composition of your account and your investment objectives, any indices shown in this material may not be an appropriate measure for comparison purposes and are therefore presented for illustration only. Indices are unmanaged. You cannot invest directly in an index. Performance of indices may be more or less volatile than any investment strategy. The risk of loss in value of a specific investment strategy is not the same as the risk of loss in a broad market index. Therefore, the historical returns of an index will not be the same as the historical returns of a particular investment strategy. Securities holdings Holdings are subject to change daily, so any securities discussed in this material may or may not be included in your account if you invest in this investment strategy. Your account may also include other securities in addition to or instead of any securities discussed in this material. There is no assurance that any securities discussed herein will remain in an account at the time you receive this material, or that securities sold have not been repurchased. The securities discussed do not represent all the securities that will be purchased, sold or recommended for advisory clients. Do not assume that any holdings mentioned were, or will be, profitable or that the investment recommendations or decisions made in the future will be profitable or will equal the investment performance of the securities discussed in this material. Actual account data may differ from that shown in this material The, holdings, sector weightings, portfolio traits and other data for an actual account may differ from that in this report due to various factors including the size of an account, cash flows within an account, and restrictions on an account. Key Asset Class Considerations Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility and principal loss. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. Investors should be willing and able to assume the risks of equity investing. The value of a client s portfolio changes daily and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in which the client is invested. Companies paying dividends can reduce or cut payouts at any time. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss. To the extent the investments depicted herein represent international securities, you should be aware that there may be additional risks associated with international investing, including foreign economic, political, monetary and/or legal factors, changing currency exchange rates, foreign taxes, and differences in financial and accounting standards. International investing may not be for everyone. These risks may be magnified in emerging markets, since these countries may have relatively unstable governments and less established markets and economics. Small- and mid-capitalization companies may lack the financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. In addition, the securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies may not trade as readily as, and be subject to higher volatility than, those of larger, more established companies. Bonds are subject to interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; generally the longer a bond s maturity, the more sensitive it is to this risk. Bonds may also be subject to call risk, which allows the issuer to retain the right to redeem the debt, fully or partially, before the scheduled maturity date. Proceeds from sales prior to maturity may be more or less than originally invested due to changes in market conditions or changes in the credit quality of the issuer. 25 INVESTING WITH IMPACT Please refer to Important Information, disclosures and qualifications at the end of this material.

26 Disclosures (cont d) In Consulting Group s advisory programs, alternative investments are limited to USregistered mutual funds, separate account strategies and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that seek to pursue alternative investment strategies or returns utilizing publicly traded securities. Investment products in this category may employ various investment strategies and techniques for both hedging and more speculative purposes such as short-selling, leverage, derivatives and options, which can increase volatility and the risk of investment loss. Alternative investments are not suitable for all investors. There may be tax implications with a rebalancing strategy.
