Other Provisions:
Recent Developments - Legal Proceedings: On June 11, 1996, an adversary
proceeding was commenced by
Orange County, California and its
Treasurer-Tax Collector against
Morgan Stanley in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the
Central District of California in
County of Orange and Moorlach v.
Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. The
adversary proceeding is related
to Orange County's Chapter 9
bankruptcy proceeding pending
before the same court. The
complaint asserts that Orange
County, acting through its former
Treasurer-Tax Collector, entered
into various reverse repurchase
agreements and other transactions
with Morgan Stanley which were
beyond the County's authority or
ultra vires and, therefore, void.
The complaint also asserts that
Morgan Stanley allowed Orange
County to enter into unsuitable
transactions. In addition, the
complaint alleges that Morgan
Stanley violated the automatic
stay provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code when it liquidated the
County's collateral and closed
out certain reverse repurchase
transactions subsequent to the
County's December 6, 1994
bankruptcy filing. The complaint
asserts claims based on ultra
vires, setoff, equitable
subordination, restitution,
enforcement of the automatic
stay, avoidance of post-petition
transfers and negligence and
seeks compensatory damages in an
unspecified amount, declaratory
and injunctive relief,
restitution, interest, various
costs and attorney's fees.
Capitalized terms not defined above have the meanings given to such
terms in the accompanying Prospectus Supplement.
