Completion of Conversion of Morgan Stanley Convertible Preferred Stock into Morgan Stanley Common Stock

Tokyo, July 1, 2011 — On June 30, 2011, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (Director and President: Katsunori Nagayasu) (“MUFG”) converted all of its holding of Morgan Stanley convertible preferred stock into Morgan Stanley common stock, after adjustment of the conversion rate. This is in accordance with the agreement between MUFG and Morgan Stanley as announced in the release titled “Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Morgan Stanley Announce Agreement to Convert Morgan Stanley Convertible Preferred Stock to Common Stock” as of April 21, 2011.

As a result, MUFG now directly holds approximately 22.4% of the voting rights of Morgan Stanley and Morgan Stanley is expected to be treated as an equity-method affiliate of MUFG in the future consolidated financial statements prepared by MUFG.
