EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

To help you better understand the performance results of third-party investment manager strategies within our Select UMA Program, we are including additional information within manager profiles that may inform your decision to invest in this strategy:

? The performance results displayed in this profile may include a composite of Morgan Stanley accounts enrolled in the strategy . These are unshaded in the

Investment Results and Portfolio Quarterly Returns sections of the profile with the Select UMA label.

? The results also display the performance of the manager's own composite of accounts invested in its version of the investment strategy , prior to the strategy's

inception in the Select UMA program. These are shaded in grey and labeled Manager. While this performance is relevant, it does not reflect the role that Morgan Stanley plays in delivering this strategy, which is reflected in the unshaded portion of the Investment Results and Portfolio Quarterly Returns sections of the profile. Morgan Stanley works in tandem, with the manager, to deliver this strategy to its clients. For this reason, Morgan Stanley does not display the manager's own composite of accounts invested in its version of the investment strategy beyond the transition month . As a result, the manager's results and the strategy's results may differ, as discussed in further detail below.

? If the transition month between the manager's results and the strategy's results occurs in the middle of a quarter , that quarter or year will be shaded blue in the

Investment Results and Portfolio Quarterly Returns sections of the profile and labeled Transition.

The manager exercises discretion in selecting securities for your account, but differences between the manager's prior gross results and the strategy's ongoing gross results may arise from variations in who executes the strategy or how it is implemented:

? Some managers may deliver a model portfolio to Morgan Stanley, which may ultimately be responsible for executing those investment decisions. ? In some cases, the manager may act as an "executing manager," which means it implements its investment decisions and transactions directly instead of

delivering instructions to Morgan Stanley.

? The manager's prior performance results are based on accounts that do not participate in the Select UMA program, with investment and operational differences

such as account size and/or level of customization.

? There may be other reasons why the performance results differ from those of individual Select UMA accounts managed in the same or a substantially similar

investment strategy. For example, Morgan Stanley may deviate from strategy models when applying client-requested restrictions.

If you have any questions about any of the information included in this profile, please contact your Morgan Stanley team.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Actual individual account results may differ from the performance shown in this profile. There is no guarantee that any investment strategy will achieve its intended results under all market conditions. Do not rely upon this profile as the sole basis for your investment decisions.

For MAPS Third Party Model Portfolios, `Manager' illustrated performance is that of the Model Portfolio Provider.

Risk Considerations

Risk/Return Analysis 2 - 5 Years Ending 12/31/23

Rate of Return (%) Rate of Return(%)

Investing in securities entails risks, including: Equity portfolios are subject to the basic stock market risk that a particular security, or securities in general, may decrease in value. Equity securities' prices may fluctuate in response to specific situations for each company, industry, market conditions and general economic environment. Investing in foreign markets entails greater risks than those normally associated with domestic markets such as foreign political, currency, economic and market risks. These risks are magnified in countries with emerging markets, since these countries may have relatively unstable governments and less established markets and economics. Companies paying dividends can reduce or cut payouts at any time. Growth investing does not guarantee a profit or eliminate risk. The stocks of these companies can have relatively high valuations. Because of these high valuations, an investment in a growth stock can be more risky than an investment in a company with more modest growth expectations. Value investing does not guarantee a profit or eliminate risk. Not all companies whose stocks are considered to be value stocks are able to turn their business around or successfully employ corrective strategies which would result in stock prices that do not rise as initially expected. Fixed Income securities may be sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. When rates rise the value generally declines. Bonds may also be subject to call risk, which is the risk that the issuer will redeem the debt at its option, fully or partially, before the scheduled maturity date. Bonds rated below investment grade may have speculative characteristics and present significant risks beyond those of other securities, including greater credit risk and price volatility in the secondary market. If a strategy expects to hold a concentrated portfolio of a limited number of securities, it should be noted that a decline in the value of these investments would cause the portfolio's overall value to decline to a greater degree than that of a less concentrated portfolio. To the extent that this manager employs ESG practices, ESG investments in a portfolio may experience performance that is lower or higher than a portfolio not employing such practices. Please refer to the Disclosure section for additional ESG considerations.
