Performance Measures. The portion, if any, of your LTIP Award that you earn will be based on Morgan Stanley performance against the performance measures set forth in this Section 2 and the other terms and conditions of this Award Certificate, and may vary from zero to 1.5 times the number of performance stock units included in the Target Award. (a) Morgan Stanley's Return on Equity. One-half of the Target Award will be earned based on MS ROE. The number of performance stock units that you earn (subject to vesting and... the other terms and conditions of your award) based on MS ROE will be determined by multiplying the number of performance stock units representing one-half of the Target Award by a multiplier determined as follows: MS ROE Multiplier 11.5% or more 1.50 10% 1.00 5% 0.50 Less than 5% 0.00 If MS ROE is between two thresholds, then the multiplier will be obtained by straight-line interpolation between the two thresholds. For example, if MS ROE is 9.5%, the multiplier would be 0.95. If MS ROE is less than 5%, you will not earn any portion of your LTIP Award as a result of the MS ROE measure, and one-half of the Target Award will be canceled. (b) Relative Total Shareholder Return. One-half of the Target Award will be earned based on Morgan Stanley's Total Shareholder Return as compared to the Total Shareholder Return of each member of the Index Group. The number of performance stock units that you earn (subject to vesting and the other terms and conditions of your award) based on Morgan Stanley's TSR as compared to the TSR of the Index Group will be determined by (i) subtracting the Index Group TSR from Morgan Stanley's TSR ("Relative TSR") and (ii) multiplying the number of performance stock units representing one-half of the Target Award by a multiplier determined as follows; provided that, in no event shall the Relative TSR multiplier exceed 1.00 if Morgan Stanley's TSR for the Performance Period is negative: Relative TSR Multiplier 25% or more 1.50 3 0% 1.00 - 50% 0.50 Less than -50% 0.00 If the Relative TSR is between the thresholds, then the multiplier will be obtained by straight-line interpolation between the two points. For example, if Morgan Stanley's TSR is 20% and the Index Group's TSR is 10%, the Relative TSR would be 10% and the multiplier would 1.20. (c) Equitable Adjustments. If an event occurs with respect to Morgan Stanley that renders, in the sole determination of the Committee, any of the performance measures set forth in Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) to no longer be appropriate, then the Committee shall equitably adjust the calculation of such measures, as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, to maintain the intended economics and to carry out the intent of the original terms of your LTIP Award. In the event of any unusual or non-recurring event affecting MS ROE or any change in applicable tax, legal or regulatory requirements or accounting methods, practices or policies, the Committee shall make equitable adjustments as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, to MS ROE and any other provision of your LTIP Award.
