AMSTERDAM and NEW DELHI, May 24, 2011 -

Morgan Stanley Infrastructure (MSI), the dedicated
infrastructure investing platform of Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS), announced
today that Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners (MSIP), a USD 4 billion
global infrastructure fund, has committed to invest up to USD 200 million in
a joint venture with Isolux Corsan Concesiones in India. Grupo Isolux Corsan
has also committed to match the investment in the joint venture, bringing the
total commitment to USD 400 million, one of the largest foreign investments
in Indian transport infrastructure to date. Isolux Corsan Concesiones is a
large-scale infrastructure concessions subsidiary of Grupo Isolux Corsan, a
global company with revenues of USD 4 billion, specialising in large projects
across construction, engineering and concessions.

The joint venture is constructing three highway projects in
India under long-term concession agreements awarded through the
Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) program of the National Highways Authority of
India (NHAI). The three projects, which total over 400 kilometers of road,
are estimated to cost over USD 1.6 billion and have already received debt
financing from leading financial institutions and substantial equity
investment from Isolux Corsan. The projects are expansions of existing roads,
and will link major cities, industrial hubs, as well as ports and tourist
attractions. In addition to these three projects, Isolux Corsan has qualified
to bid on several new NHAI projects.

"We are very pleased to have concluded an exclusive deal for
this addition to our global fund," said Sadek Wahba, Global Head of MSI and
Chief Investment Officer of MSIP. "This joint venture offers an excellent
opportunity for Morgan Stanley Infrastructure to pursue its overall strategy
of creating a stable portfolio of assets diversified by sector and geography.
This platform will leverage Isolux Corsan's strong credentials in developing
infrastructure assets for emerging markets and its proven ability to work
with local construction companies."

Antonio Portela, CEO of Grupo Isolux Corsan, said, "We look
forward to working with Morgan Stanley Infrastructure, a renowned global
infrastructure investor. This investment represents the recognition of our
strategy in India and the confidence in our expertise in the development of
large infrastructure projects in emerging markets. We believe that Isolux
Corsan Concesiones and Morgan Stanley Infrastructure will together capitalize
on the Indian roads opportunity and create a best-in-class road portfolio
company in the years to come."

The Indian road development program being undertaken by the
NHAI under a Public-Private-Partnership model is among the largest PPP
programs in the world today. NHAI's National Highway Development Program was
initiated in 1999 and is estimated to total USD 50 billion when completed.
India has witnessed double-digit growth in vehicle registrations over the
past 10 years, according to Euromonitor, and Morgan Stanley Research
identifies it as the second-fastest growing auto market in the world.

"The joint venture with Isolux Corsan Concesiones adds to our
successful presence in India's transportation sector, providing us with an
excellent road concession platform in a market that is experiencing rapid
urbanization and dramatic growth in vehicles," said Gautam Bhandari, Head of
MSI Asia. "As with our other investments in emerging markets, we target
unique assets and world-class partners to build exceptional infrastructure
companies in the region."
