A Smart Solution for a Common Dilemma 10b5-1 At a Glance Corporate executives frequently come into possession of material non-public information and face quarterly or special blackout periods that restrict market access to trading their company stock. As a result, they are often left with narrow windows and sometimes unpredictable opportunities to execute transactions. Morgan Stanley s 10b5-1 Preset Diversification Program (PDP) was designed specifically to address these issues. By adopting a PDP, you gain an affirmative defense against claims of insider trading and you can structure a set trading schedule that coordinates with your personal need for liquidity or diversification and your timing requirements (such as the vesting dates for stock options and restricted stock plans). What s more, our industry-leading platform and separate desk structure supports the affirmative defense that Rule 10b5-1 offers.

Provides an affirmative defense against potential claims of insider trading Specialized Resources Focused on You Our team of 10b5-1 PDP Specialists works closely with your Financial Advisor to structure, draft and adopt a 10b5-1 Trading Plan. This process puts diversification on auto-pilot and provides discipline during market fluctuations all while supporting you in the pursuit of your investment objectives. Once adopted, your plan will be executed by our dedicated 10b5-1 PDP Trading Desk, a team of traders focused solely on 10b5-1 plans. By keeping our specialists and traders separate and distinct from your Financial Advisor and their team, we ensure that our EFS team will work closely to handle your unique needs while providing you immediate open lines of communication to your Financial Advisor. When you work with our specialized team and set up a 10b5-1 plan, you receive these important advantages: Access to public markets without regard to corporate blackout periods Reduced risk associated with a concentrated equity position through diversification Filing of required Rule 144 forms, on your behalf, by Morgan Stanley Prompt execution notification to facilitate Section 16 filing requirements

First-Class Service From a Market Leader Leadership Experience Service Scope We have been ranked No. 1 over the past 11 years in 10b5-1.* Our EFS team has an average of over 10 years of 10b5-1 trading plan experience. We have executed more than 26,500 plans for more than 1,600 Issuers. We are proud of our client list, which includes a diverse range of companies, whether viewed by market cap, industry sector, or stage in the company life cycle. 8 MORGAN STANLEY 2016

Restricted and Control Stock Opportunities As an executive and key contributor to your company s success, you are often awarded restricted or control stock to acknowledge your contributions. While such rewards are beneficial and offer opportunities for personal financial growth, they do carry certain limitations. Our EFS team helps you comply with the myriad of SEC rules governing restricted and control stock as well as the conditions set forth in your company s applicable policies and procedures when making open market sales. To achieve this, our EFS professionals: Perform SEC resale exemption due diligence Assemble necessary documentation, such as broker and seller representation letters File Rule 144 forms, as necessary Facilitate Section 16 Officer filing requirements Coordinate with a transfer agent, if the transaction involves restricted stock Control Securities Control stock are acquired through the open market or registered stock option exercise and is owned by individuals or entities who directly or indirectly control the management of the issuer typically, senior officers, directors and certain large shareholders often referred to as affiliates. Keep in mind, it is the security holder s ability to control the company, and not how the stock was acquired, that determines whether the securities are control securities. Restricted Securities Restricted securities may be acquired in an unregistered transaction, obtained from a company or an affiliate of the company in a private transaction or received as compensation. If you have restricted stock, it will usually have a legend stamped on the stock certificate indicating the stock is not registered for public sale. 10 MORGAN STANLEY 2016

Sophisticated Liquidity Strategies Individuals with eligible restricted or control stock may not want or be permitted to readily sell their securities. But that doesn t mean these assets need to stay idle. If qualified, a loan secured by eligible securities may be able to put these assets to work immediately. The EFS team will work to vet the specific securities involved to confirm they are eligible as collateral and can be used to help with your financing needs. Our team will then work with your Financial Advisor and a Morgan Stanley Private Banker* to determine the products and services that may be most appropriate for you while helping to navigate the regulatory requirements and ensuring all proper documentation is in place. Leveraging Your Wealth Securities-based loans (SBL) may help you unlock the value of your portfolio so you may: Purchase real estate or complete home renovations Estate planning Philanthropy and nonprofit giving Pay education expenses Fund tax liabilities Provide funds for weddings or other life events requirements Consolidate debt Buy cars or other luxury items Cover unexpected events *Private Bankers are employees of Morgan Stanley Private Bank, National Association. 12 MORGAN STANLEY 2016

The Types of Loans Eligible Securities Can Secure Include SECURITIES BASED LOANS A flexible loan or line of credit using securities in a Morgan Stanley brokerage account as collateral. A securities-based loan may be a cost-effective financing alternative for qualified applicants. MARGIN LOANS A traditional brokerage loan enabling the purchase of additional securities to diversify an investment portfolio. This strategy may be used to expedite ownership requirements. TAILORED LENDING Tailored loans may use different assets and asset classes as collateral based on an individual s unique needs. Borrowing against securities may not be suitable for everyone. You should be aware that there are risks associated with a securities based loan, including possible maintenance calls on short notice, and that market conditions can magnify any potential for loss. For details, please see the important disclosures at the end of this brochure. MORGAN STANLEY 2016 13

Wealth Transfer and Gifting Opportunities Donating restricted or control stock can bring many benefits to you and the charity of your choosing while having an enduring impact on communities and future generations. You can make contributions to a favored nonprofit organization without tapping cash reserves or liquidating other assets. By donating restricted or control stock, you can actually make significantly larger contributions than if you were making donations in cash. That s because gifts to qualified charities are exempt from gift tax and remove these assets from the estate. Such donations may also qualify for current charitable income tax deductions, however, they may be subject to liquidity issues for the charity. Morgan Stanley s high-touch support team can guide you through various philanthropic giving strategies for restricted or control stock. 14 MORGAN STANLEY 2016

Providing a Safe Harbor for Insider Purchases SEC Rule 10b-18 provides a safe harbor against claims of market manipulation when you purchase shares of your company s stock in the open market. You can work with your Morgan Stanley Financial Advisor and our EFS team to utilize this rule and: Take advantage of bullish sentiments on your company stock Meet affiliated retention requirements Increase ownership in company stock Obtain a safe harbor against claims of market manipulation MORGAN STANLEY 2016 15

Put Your Wealth to Work If you find your overall wealth is heavily weighted in company stock or the restrictions placed on the sale of your shares are limiting your personal financial growth, we offer the strategic guidance and sophisticated strategies necessary to gain flexible access to your wealth. Getting Started We look forward to answering specific questions you may have about our Executive Financial Services platform. Please reach out to your Morgan Stanley Financial Advisor, who will walk you through the critical steps to accessing the specialized guidance and tailored solutions. Or, you can contact EFS directly at executiveservices@morganstanley.com. 16 MORGAN STANLEY 2016
