NOTE: Clicking on the edit/delete Link will take you to the Profile: Payments Instructions screen where you can see or edit your Wire Transfer instructions. However, your transaction will not be saved. You can also edit your Wire Transfer instructions after your trade has been submitted. You have two business days after the order executes (T+2) to edit these instructions. If your edits are not submitted by 4pm two days after the trade, your proceeds will be delivered via the Wire Transfer instructions we have on file.

Q. WHEN I DO A STOCK PLAN TRANSACTION ON STOCKPLAN CONNECT, HOW DO I CHOOSE A WIRE TRANSFER OF FUNDS FOR MY PROCEEDS DELIVERY?A. Once you set up Wire instructions, you can execute your transactions through the Exercise Grants or Sell Shares buttons on StockPlan Connect. On the Sell/Exercise page you will be asked “How Would You Like the Proceeds Delivered?” From the Delivery Method drop-down box, you will select your payment preference. If you have not previously established Wire instruc-tions, you can also do so at this time. If you have equity plans in more than one company, you can now easily copy your wire instructions to all your companies. This can be done at the time of setup or you can click the link, “Use for all com-panies” and follow the steps to confirm the instructions you want to carry over.

Q. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO WIRE SALE PROCEEDS TO MY BANK ACCOUNT?A. There is typically a $25 fee associated with a federal fund wire, which is deducted from your sale proceeds. This fee is shown under the estimated proceeds section on the Exercise Grants or Sell Shares screen.

Q. HOW CAN I GET CONFIRMATION THAT MY FUNDS HAVE BEEN WIRED?A. Once we receive confirmation that your bank has acknowledged the funds, you can contact the Morgan Stanley Service Center to obtain a confirmation reference number.

Q. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR ME TO RECEIVE MY PROCEEDS?A. For wires to U.S. banks, brokerage, and credit union accounts, you will typically

receive your proceeds the day the trans-action settles, which is approximately the third business day after your transaction was executed. For wires to international banks, Morgan Stanley releases the funds on the settlement date and the receiving bank will credit the account according to their policy.

Q. I HAVE RECEIVED LESS MONEY THAN THE ORIGINAL WIRE AMOUNT; WHY WERE ADDITIONAL FEES CHARGED?A. Morgan Stanley will not charge any ad-ditional fees above our standard wire fee. Your receiving bank and any intermediary banks, however, may charge either a flat rate fee or a percentage of the dollar amount transferred.

Q. WHAT ARE THE ALTERNATIVES TO WIRING MY PROCEEDS?A. When choosing your proceeds delivery method on StockPlan Connect you can also choose to receive your proceeds by check through regular mail or overnight delivery. If you have a Morgan Stanley brokerage account, you can deposit your sale proceeds to your brokerage account.

Q. WHO CAN I CONTACT FOR ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE?A. Please contact the Morgan Stanley Service Center at: 1-866-722-7310 (U.S. participants) or 1-801-617-7435 (non-U.S. participants).
