As more fully set forth in the Issuer's Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement (SEC Registration #333-47576), the aforementioned security will bear annual interest of 10% based on the initial offering price of$35.00. Interest will be payable quarterly beginning May 30, 2002. At maturity, holders will receive one share of Siebel Systems, Inc.

Beginning February 24, 2003, Morgan Stanley will have the right to call all of the SPARQS and pay holders the cash call price, which will be calculated based on the call date. The call price will be an amount of cash per SPARQS that, together with all of the interest paid on the SPARQS to and including the call date, gives holders a yield of 38% per annum on the issue price of each SPARQS from and including the date of issuance to but excluding the call date. The calculation of the call price for any call date takes into account the time value of all the payments made per SPARQS from the date of issuance to and including the applicable call date.

Securities with characteristics similar to the SPARQS are unique securities, and there is currently no secondary market for the SPARQS. The market value for the SPARQS will be affected by a number of factors including, but not limited to, the volatility of Siebel Systems, Inc., the dividend rate on Siebel Systems, Inc., market interest and yield and the time remaining to the maturity of the SPARQS. * Information concerning taxation may be found in the Prospectus. * The Trustee for this security is JP Morgan Chase. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 2 Members, member organizations and prospective investors are advised to consult the Prospectus, Prospectus Supplement and Pricing Supplement for additional information relating to the Securities and to take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to assure that prospective investors who purchase these securities reach an investment decision in light of their financial circumstances and objectives.
