                             Chairman of the Board
                            Chief Executive Officer

                                                                 March 17, 2003

Dear Shareholder:

As you may be aware, Carnival Corporation and P&O Princess Cruises plc have
agreed to combine their businesses strategically under a dual listed company
structure, which we refer to as the Combined Group in the attached proxy
statement/prospectus. The Combined Group will be the largest cruise vacation
group in the world, based on revenues, passengers carried and available
capacity. The Combined Group will operate a combined fleet of 65 cruise ships
and will sail to all major cruise destinations outside the Far East. This is a
significant transaction for Carnival and an important step in our history.

Under the DLC structure, the businesses of Carnival and P&O Princess will be
combined principally through a series of contracts. Each company will continue
to retain its separate legal identity, but the two companies will share a
single senior executive management team, will have identical boards of
directors and will be run as if they were a single economic enterprise. The two
companies will pursue a common set of business objectives established by the
identical boards and single management team, who will evaluate these strategies
and other operational decisions from the perspective of all the shareholders.

Following completion of the transactions necessary to complete the DLC
structure, you will continue to own the Carnival shares you currently own, but
these shares will effectively reflect your economic interest in the Combined
Group as a whole. On most matters that affect all of the shareholders of the
Combined Group, you will vote together with the shareholders of P&O Princess on
a combined basis. Carnival shares held by you and other current Carnival
shareholders will represent at least 74% of the total equity and voting power
of the Combined Group. Carnival shares are listed, and will continue to be
listed, on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CCL."

Information about the DLC transaction and proposed amendments to Carnival's
articles of incorporation and by-laws in connection with the DLC structure is
included in the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus. I urge you to read
this material carefully and fully. You should also carefully consider the risk
factors beginning on page 31.

Carnival's management believes that there will be significant benefits in
sharing the best practices of the management teams of Carnival and P&O Princess
across the Combined Group. The DLC transaction will allow the Combined Group to
offer a wider range of vacation choices for its passengers and will enhance its
ability to attract more passengers from land-based vacations. Carnival's board
of directors is asking you to approve the Offer and Implementation Agreement
and related transactions required to effect the DLC transaction, including
necessary amendments to Carnival's articles of incorporation and by-laws, and
the additional proposed amendments to Carnival's articles of incorporation and
by-laws, as described in more detail in the accompanying proxy
statement/prospectus.

We cannot complete the DLC transaction unless you and your fellow shareholders
approve it by a vote of a majority of all outstanding Carnival shares. The
board of directors of Carnival has unanimously approved the DLC transaction and
recommends that you vote FOR the resolutions set out in the notice of the
special meeting.

The board of directors has fixed the close of business on March 11, 2003 as the
record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the
meeting or any adjournment of the meeting.

Thank you for your ongoing support and continued interest in Carnival
Corporation.

                                          Sincerely,

                                          /s/
                                          Chairman of the Board and
                                          Chief Executive Officer

                             QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

This question-and-answer section highlights important information in this proxy
statement/prospectus but does not contain all of the information that is
important to you. You should carefully read this entire proxy
statement/prospectus and the other documents we refer you to for a more
complete understanding of the matters being considered at the special meeting.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this proxy
statement/prospectus to "Carnival", "the Company", "we" or "us" are to Carnival
Corporation and its subsidiaries, references to "P&O Princess" are to P&O
Princess Cruises plc and its subsidiaries, and references to "the Combined
Group" are references to the new enterprise resulting from the DLC transaction
between us and P&O Princess.

About the DLC Transaction

Q: Why am I receiving these materials?

A: Our board of directors is providing these materials to you in connection
   with our special meeting and the DLC transaction referred to below. As a
   shareholder, you are invited to attend the meeting and are requested to vote
   on the proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Q: What am I being asked to vote on?

A: You are being asked to consider and vote upon proposals to implement a dual
   listed company, or "DLC", structure with P&O Princess, which we refer to in
   this document as the "DLC transaction". These proposals include approval of
   an Offer and Implementation Agreement and amendments to our articles of
   incorporation and by-laws. You are also being asked to approve amendments to
   our articles of incorporation and by-laws which, although consistent with
   the amendments relating to the DLC transaction, are not directly related to
   the DLC transaction.

Q: What is the DLC transaction?

A: The DLC transaction is a means of enabling us and P&O Princess to combine
   our management and operations as if we were a single economic enterprise,
   while retaining our separate legal identities. This will be accomplished
   through contractual arrangements and amendments to each company's governing
   documents. In addition, the governing documents of the two companies will be
   harmonized, to the extent practicable and permitted by law, to ensure our
   and P&O Princess' corporate procedures are substantially similar. As part of
   the DLC transaction, P&O Princess intends to change its name to Carnival plc
   at the extraordinary general meeting of P&O Princess shareholders. You will
   be voting on the changes to our governing documents (our articles of
   incorporation and by-laws) to give effect to these arrangements, as well as
   other amendments to our articles of incorporation and by-laws which,
   although consistent with the amendments relating to the DLC transaction, are
   not directly related to the DLC transaction.

Q: What votes are required to approve the DLC transaction?

A: The DLC transaction must be approved by our shareholders and P&O Princess
   shareholders. Our shareholders must approve the proposals at the special
   meeting by the affirmative vote of a majority of all outstanding Carnival
   shares entitled to vote at the special meeting. P&O Princess shareholders
   must approve the DLC transaction by not less than three-quarters of the
   votes cast at the P&O Princess extraordinary general meeting. Micky Arison,
   our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, other members of the Arison family
   and trusts for their benefit have entered into undertakings under which they
   will be


                                       1



   required to cause shares beneficially owned by them representing
   approximately 47% of the voting power of Carnival to vote in favor of the
   resolutions required to implement the DLC structure at the special meeting.
   These undertakings are irrevocable except in circumstances where the DLC
   transaction is withdrawn or lapses.

Q: What is P&O Princess?

A: P&O Princess is a global cruise vacation company providing cruises to
   Alaska, the Caribbean, Europe, the Mediterranean, the Panama Canal and other
   exotic locations. P&O Princess also has a land-based tour operation division
   in Alaska. P&O Princess ordinary shares are listed on the London Stock
   Exchange, which we refer to in this document as the "LSE", and its American
   Depositary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, which we refer
   to in this document as the "NYSE". Both P&O Princess shares and P&O Princess
   ADSs trade under the symbol "POC" on their respective exchanges. You can
   learn more about P&O Princess by reading the documents P&O Princess has
   filed with the SEC. See "Where You Can Find More Information."

Q: Why does Carnival want to implement the DLC transaction?

A: Our board of directors believes that the DLC transaction is advantageous for
   Carnival and in the best interests of Carnival and its shareholders.
   Carnival has agreed to enter into the DLC transaction with P&O Princess in
   order to create the Combined Group. The transaction will allow the Combined
   Group to offer a wider range of vacation choices for its passengers and is
   expected to enhance its ability to attract more passengers from land-based
   vacations.

Q: What is the Combined Group?

A: The Combined Group, which reflects the businesses of Carnival and P&O
   Princess that will be managed and operated as if they were a single economic
   enterprise, will be the largest cruise vacation group in the world, based on
   revenue, passengers carried and available capacity. It will have a wide
   portfolio of complementary brands, both by geography and product offering,
   and will include some of the best known cruise brands globally. As of
   January 31, 2003, Carnival and P&O Princess, together, would have had a
   combined fleet of 65 cruise ships offering 99,982 lower berths, with 18
   additional cruise ships with 42,260 lower berths scheduled to be added over
   the next three and a half years. The Combined Group will be a leading
   provider of cruises to all major cruise destinations outside the Far East.
   Carnival and P&O Princess together carried approximately 4.7 million
   passengers in fiscal 2002.

Q: Will P&O Princess become a subsidiary of Carnival?

A: No. P&O Princess will continue to exist as a separate publicly quoted
   company and its shares will continue to be listed on the LSE. Our board and
   the P&O Princess board will be identical and the Combined Group will be
   managed by a single senior executive management team. The two companies will
   pursue a common set of business objectives established by the identical
   boards and single management team, who will evaluate these strategies and
   other operational decisions from the perspective of all the shareholders.

Q: Will there be any transfer of assets between us and P&O Princess in
   connection with the DLC transaction?

A: No. The implementation of the DLC structure will not involve any transfer of
   assets between us and P&O Princess. Following completion of the DLC
   transaction, management of the Combined Group will determine whether assets
   will be owned by Carnival or P&O Princess as is most efficient and
   appropriate under the then prevailing circumstances. The


                                      2



   Combined Group will comprise all of the assets held by P&O Princess and
   Carnival immediately prior to the implementation of the DLC transaction. No
   transfer of assets between the two companies will affect the equalization
   ratio or the relative economic interests of Carnival shareholders and P&O
   Princess shareholders in the Combined Group.

Q: What will happen to my Carnival shares?

A: Upon completion of the DLC transaction, you will continue to own your
   Carnival shares and will keep your existing certificates, if you have any.
   Carnival shares will continue to be listed on the NYSE. In connection with
   the DLC transaction, Carnival shareholders will receive trust shares of
   beneficial interests in a special voting entity in the form of a trust that
   we are creating. Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival
   shares will trade together with the trust shares of beneficial interest in
   this special voting trust, which we refer to in this proxy
   statement/prospectus as the "P&O Princess Special Voting Trust". Separate
   stock certificates will not be issued to represent these trust shares of
   beneficial interest; instead, certificates representing your Carnival shares
   will also evidence these trust shares of beneficial interest. You should not
   turn in your Carnival stock certificates.

Q: What are the trust shares of beneficial interest?

A: The trust shares of beneficial interest will represent an interest in the
   P&O Princess Special Voting Trust. The trustee of the P&O Princess Special
   Voting Trust will hold the P&O Princess special voting share. This special
   voting share is the mechanism by which your votes at Carnival shareholders
   meetings will be given effect at the P&O Princess shareholders meetings for
   purposes of the joint electorate actions and class rights actions described
   below. The trust shares of beneficial interest will entitle you to receive
   any distributions made by the trust. However, as the sole purpose of the
   trust relates to the holding of the special voting share, it is not expected
   to make any distributions.

Q. Will I be voting on the issuance of the trust shares?

A: No. The trust shares will be distributed by way of a dividend declared by
   our board of directors.

Q: What will happen to my future dividends?

A: After completion of the DLC transaction, dividends declared by us will
   continue to be paid by us to our shareholders and dividends declared by P&O
   Princess will continue to be paid by P&O Princess to its shareholders.
   However, we will not be able to declare or pay a dividend without an
   equivalent dividend (before taxes and other deductions) being declared or
   paid by P&O Princess and vice versa. Dividends on both our shares and P&O
   Princess shares declared after completion of the DLC transaction will be
   paid at about the same time and in equalized amounts. Our payment of
   dividends in the future will depend on business conditions, our financial
   condition and earnings and the financial condition and earnings of the
   Combined Group, the ability of P&O Princess to pay an equivalent dividend
   and other factors. It is intended that the first dividend to be paid by the
   Combined Group will be declared in April 2003, with a record date in May
   2003, and a payment date in June 2003.

Q: Will my voting rights change?

A: Yes. On most matters that affect all of the shareholders of the Combined
   Group, shareholders of Carnival and P&O Princess will effectively vote
   together as a single decision-making body on matters requiring the approval
   of shareholders of either


                                      3



   company. These matters will be specified in the governing documents of each
   company as "joint electorate actions". Combined voting will be accomplished
   through a special voting share, one to be issued by Carnival and held by a
   special voting entity set up by P&O Princess, and one to be issued by P&O
   Princess that will be held by the special voting entity in the form of a
   trust formed by Carnival. Certain matters where the interests of the two
   shareholder bodies may diverge will be specified in the governing documents
   of each company as "class rights actions". These class rights actions will
   be voted on separately by the shareholders of each company. If either group
   of shareholders does not approve a class rights action, that action
   generally cannot be taken by either company.

Q: Will I be asked to vote at P&O Princess meetings?

A: No. Your vote at Carnival shareholder meetings, for purposes of determining
   the outcome of combined voting, will automatically be reflected as
   appropriate at any parallel P&O Princess shareholders meeting through the
   mechanism of the special voting share.

Q: Who will be the directors and senior executive management team of the
   Combined Group?

A: We and P&O Princess will be managed and operated as if we were a single
   economic enterprise. Although we and P&O Princess will continue to exist as
   separate companies with its own board of directors and senior executive
   management, the boards and senior executive management of each company will
   be identical. The proposed directors of Carnival and P&O Princess following
   implementation of the DLC structure are listed under "Directors and
   Executive Officers of the Combined Group". In addition to their normal
   fiduciary duties to the company and obligation to have regard to the
   interests of its shareholders, the directors of each company will be
   entitled to have regard to the interests of the other company and its
   shareholders. Micky Arison, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, will
   be the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of both Carnival and P&O
   Princess, Howard S. Frank, our Vice-Chairman and Chief Operating Officer,
   will be the Vice-Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of both Carnival and
   P&O Princess and Gerald R. Cahill, our Chief Financial Officer and Chief
   Accounting Officer, will be the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting
   Officer of both Carnival and P&O Princess. The headquarters of the Combined
   Group will be in Miami, Florida with a corporate office in London.

Q: How will the directors of Carnival and P&O Princess be elected?

A: Resolutions relating to the appointment, removal and re-election of
   directors will be considered as a joint electorate action and voted upon by
   the shareholders of each company effectively voting together as a single
   decision-making body. No person may be a member of the board of directors of
   Carnival or P&O Princess without also being a member of the board of
   directors of the other company.

Q: When will we elect the directors of Carnival and P&O Princess?

A: We and P&O Princess expect to hold our next annual meetings in June 2003 at
   which the re-election of each of the directors will be considered as joint
   electorate actions.

Q: What is the Partial Share Offer?

A: In connection with the DLC transaction, we are making a tender offer for up
   to 20% of P&O Princess' outstanding shares, which we refer to in this proxy
   statement/prospectus as the "Partial Share Offer." The Partial Share Offer
   is not being made to you and will not influence whether or not the DLC
   transaction will proceed. Any P&O Princess shares that we acquire in the


                                      4



   Partial Share Offer will not give us, or you, additional control over P&O
   Princess as those shares, under the terms of the agreements implementing the
   DLC transaction, will not have voting rights.

Q: What percentage of the Combined Group will be controlled by existing
   Carnival shareholders?

A: If the DLC transaction is approved, existing Carnival shareholders will hold
   approximately 74% of the equity of the Combined Group following its
   implementation. However, to the extent that P&O Princess shares are
   exchanged for Carnival shares under the Partial Share Offer, the percentage
   of the equity of the Combined Group represented by Carnival shares will
   increase. If the Partial Share Offer is taken up in full, approximately 79%
   of the equity of the Combined Group will be held through Carnival shares
   with the balance of the equity held through P&O Princess shares.

Q: What are the most significant conditions to the DLC transaction?

A: Completion of the DLC transaction is subject to certain conditions being
   satisfied or waived on or before September 30, 2003. The most important of
   these include:

   .   approval of the shareholders of each of Carnival and P&O Princess;

   .   the absence of action, or threatened action, by any governmental
       authority that restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the completion
       or performance of, or materially adversely affects, the DLC transaction
       and the other transactions contemplated by the Offer and Implementation
       Agreement;

   .   effectiveness of the revised governing documents;

   .   all relevant regulatory consents or approvals having been obtained;

   .   the Partial Share Offer becoming unconditional (other than the condition
       regarding closing of the DLC transaction); and

   .   approval by the NYSE of the listing of either the trust shares of
       beneficial interest or the P&O Princess special voting share, subject in
       either case only to official notice of issuance.

Q: When do you expect to complete the DLC transaction?

A: We are working to complete the DLC transaction as soon as possible. We hope
   to complete the DLC transaction as soon as we can following our special
   meeting and the extraordinary general meeting of P&O Princess shareholders,
   if the required shareholder approvals are obtained at those meetings. In
   addition to shareholder approvals, we must satisfy all of the other closing
   conditions specified in the Offer and Implementation Agreement. Subject to
   these conditions, we expect completion of the DLC transaction to take place
   early in the second quarter of 2003.

Q: What are the tax consequences of the DLC transaction?

A: Although there is no U.S. federal income tax authority addressing the tax
   consequences of a DLC transaction, we believe that the DLC transaction
   should not give rise to taxable income or gain for Carnival shareholders
   that are U.S. holders (as we use this term in this proxy
   statement/prospectus) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, the
   Internal Revenue Service may assert that Carnival shareholders received
   taxable income as a result of the various voting and equalization provisions
   necessary to implement the DLC structure, including the trust shares. We
   believe that such voting and other rights, if any, received by shareholders
   are expected to have only nominal value and, therefore,


                                      5



   the receipt of such rights by Carnival shareholders would only result in a
   nominal amount of income. It is possible, however, that the IRS may disagree
   with this conclusion.

   Holders of Carnival shares should consult their independent professional
   advisers in the light of their particular circumstances as to the U.S.
   federal income tax consequences of the DLC transaction, as well as to the
   effect of any state, local or applicable foreign tax law.

Q: What accounting treatment and reporting requirements will be applicable to
   the Combined Group?

A: We expect that under U.S. GAAP the DLC transaction will be accounted for
   using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of
   Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations". In
   accordance with the purchase method of accounting, the P&O Princess U.S.
   GAAP accounting policies will be conformed to our accounting policies upon
   completion of the DLC transaction.

   Following completion of the DLC transaction, P&O Princess will change its
   fiscal year end from December 31 to November 30 so that it will be the same
   as our current fiscal year end. The Combined Group intends to publish
   combined financial statements denominated in U.S. dollars and prepared in
   accordance with U.S. GAAP. We expect that these combined financial
   statements will be included in a combined annual report. P&O Princess
   expects to include summary balance sheet information and summary income
   statement information prepared in accordance with UK GAAP, without notes, in
   the annual report.

   In addition, we and P&O Princess will file periodic and current reports with
   the SEC on a joint basis in accordance with the rules applicable to U.S.
   domestic reporting companies. The financial statements presented in the
   periodic reports will consist of combined financial statements of the
   Combined Group prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Q: What corporate governance require-ments will apply to the Combined Group?

A: We and P&O Princess comply with, and the Combined Group will comply with,
   the applicable corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
   of 2002 and the NYSE. P&O Princess will also continue to comply with the
   rules of the UK Listing Authority and the LSE.

Q: Should I vote?

A: Yes. The proposed DLC transaction is an important step in our history and
   your vote is critical to this process. Your board of directors unanimously
   believes the DLC transaction is in the best interests of Carnival's
   shareholders. Because the proposals contained in this proxy
   statement/prospectus require the approval of a majority of all outstanding
   shares entitled to vote at the special meeting, and not merely of those
   shares voted at the special meeting, your vote is all the more important.
   Please complete and send in the proxy card attached to this proxy
   statement/prospectus.

Q: Does the Carnival board recommend the DLC transaction?

A: Yes. Our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote your shares
   FOR the proposals necessary to effect the DLC transaction. As of March 11,
   2003, our directors and executive officers and their affiliates beneficially
   own an aggregate of 234,661,927 Carnival shares, which represents 39.8% of
   Carnival's outstanding shares. Our directors and executive officers intend
   to vote their Carnival shares FOR the proposals at the special meeting.


                                      6



Q: Does the P&O Princess board recommend the DLC transaction?

A: Yes. The board of directors of P&O Princess has recommended that P&O
   Princess shareholders vote in favor of the DLC transaction. The directors
   and executive officers of P&O Princess beneficially own approximately 0.2%
   of P&O Princess' outstanding shares. The P&O Princess directors and
   executive officers intend to vote their shares in favor of the resolution to
   approve, among other matters, the DLC transaction at the P&O Princess
   extraordinary general meeting.

About the Special Meeting

Q: When and where is the special meeting?

A: The special meeting is scheduled to be held as follows:

       Date:  April 14, 2003

       Time:  10:00 a.m.

      Place:  Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton
             & Garrison LLP
             1285 Avenue of the Americas
             New York, NY 10019

Q: Who can attend the meeting?

A: All shareholders of record as of March 11, 2003, or their duly appointed
   proxies, may attend the meeting, and each may be accompanied by one guest.
   Seating, however, is limited. Admission to the meeting will be on a first
   come, first served basis. Each shareholder may be asked to present valid
   picture identification, such as a driver's license or passport.

   If you hold your shares through a stockbroker or other nominee, you will
   need to provide proof of ownership by bringing either a copy of the voting
   instruction card provided by your broker or a copy of a brokerage statement
   showing your share ownership as of March 11, 2003 together with proof of
   identification. Cameras, recording devices and other electronic devices will
   not be permitted at the meeting.

Q: What vote will be required to approve the proposals?

A: Approval of the Offer and Implementation Agreement and the amendments to our
   articles of incorporation and by-laws will require the vote of the holders
   of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote on
   these proposals.

Q: What class of shares are entitled to be voted?

A: We have only one class of common stock outstanding. Each share of our common
   stock outstanding as of the close of business on March 11, 2003, the Record
   Date, is entitled to one vote at the special meeting. On the Record Date, we
   had approximately 586,972,729 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Q: What is the quorum requirement for the meeting?

A: The quorum requirement for holding the meeting and transacting business is a
   majority of the outstanding shares entitled to be voted. The shares may be
   present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting. Abstentions and
   broker non-votes are counted as present for the purpose of determining the
   presence of a quorum. Generally, broker non-votes occur when shares held by
   a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular
   proposal because (1) the broker has not received voting instructions from
   the beneficial owner and (2) the broker lacks discretionary voting power to
   vote such shares.

Q: What shares owned by me can be voted?

A: All shares owned by you as of March 11, 2003, the Record Date, may be voted
   by


                                      7



   you. These shares include those (1) held directly in your name as the
   shareholder of record, including shares purchased through our Dividend
   Reinvestment Plan and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan and (2) held for you
   as the beneficial owner though a stockbroker, bank or other nominee.

   At the close of business on that day, 586,972,729 shares of our common stock
   were outstanding.

Q: What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and
   as a beneficial owner?

A: Most of our shareholders hold their shares through a stockbroker, bank or
   other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below,
   there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned
   beneficially.

   Shareholder of Record

   If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent,
   SunTrust Bank, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the
   shareholder of record, and this proxy statement/prospectus is being sent
   directly to you by us. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to
   grant your voting proxy directly to the persons named in the proxy or to
   vote in person at the meeting. We have enclosed a proxy card for you to use.

   Beneficial Owner

   If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other
   nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street
   name, and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or
   nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of
   record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker on
   how to vote and are also invited to attend the meeting. However, since you
   are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person
   at the meeting. Your broker or nominee has enclosed a voting instruction
   card for you to use.

Q: How can I vote my shares in person at the meeting?

A: Shares held directly in your name as the shareholder of record may be voted
   in person at the special meeting. If you choose to do so, please bring the
   enclosed proxy card and proof of identification.

   Even if you plan to attend the special meeting, we recommend that you also
   submit your proxy as described below so that your vote will be counted if
   you later decide not to attend the meeting. Shares held in street name may
   be voted in person by you only if you obtain a signed proxy from the record
   holder giving you the right to vote the shares. Please refer to the voting
   instruction card included by your broker or nominee.

Q: How can I vote my shares without attending the meeting?

A: Whether you hold shares directly as the shareholder of record or
   beneficially in street name, you may direct your vote without attending the
   meeting. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares held in street
   name, by submitting voting instructions to your broker or nominee. For
   shareholders of record, you may do this by signing your proxy card and
   mailing it in the enclosed envelope. If you provided specific voting
   instructions, your shares will be voted as you instruct. If you sign but do
   not provide instructions, your shares will be voted as described below in
   "How are votes counted?".

   In most instances, where your shares are held in street name, you will be
   able to do this over the Internet at www.carnivalcorp.com, by telephone or
   by mail. Please refer to the voting instruction card included by your broker
   or nominee.


                                      8



Q: Can I change my vote?

A: You may change your proxy instruction at any time prior to the vote at the
   special meeting. For shares held directly in your name, you may accomplish
   this by granting a new proxy bearing a later date (which automatically
   revokes the earlier proxy) or by attending the special meeting and voting in
   person. Attendance at the meeting will not cause your previously granted
   proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request. For shares owned
   beneficially by you, you may accomplish this by submitting new voting
   instructions to your broker or nominee.

Q: What happens if I do not vote?

A: Your vote is important. We cannot complete the DLC transaction unless the
   holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Carnival common stock
   vote ''FOR'' the proposals.

Q: Do I have any appraisal rights if I oppose the proposals?

A: No. Shareholders do not have the right to an appraisal of the value of their
   shares in connection with the proposals.

Q: How are votes counted?

A: You may vote "FOR", "AGAINST" or "ABSTAIN" from voting on the proposals set
   out in the notice of meeting. If you "ABSTAIN", it has the same effect as a
   vote "AGAINST". If you sign your proxy card or broker voting instruction
   card with no further instructions, your shares will be voted "FOR" the
   proposals set out in the notice of meeting.

Q: What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy or voting instruction
   card?

A: It means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one
   account. Please provide voting instructions for all proxy and voting cards
   you receive.

Q: Where can I find the voting results of the meeting?

A: We will announce preliminary voting results at the meeting and publish final
   results via press release.

Q: What happens if additional proposals are presented at the meeting?

A: Other than the proposals described in this proxy statement/prospectus, we do
   not expect any matters to be presented for a vote at the special meeting. If
   you grant a proxy, the persons named as proxy holders, Micky Arison, our
   Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Arnaldo Perez, our
   Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, will have the
   discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented
   for a vote at the meeting.

Q: Who will count the vote?

A: A representative of SunTrust Bank, our transfer agent, will tabulate the
   votes and act as the inspector of elections.

Q: Is my vote confidential?

A: Proxy instructions, ballots and voting tabulations that identify individual
   shareholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. Your
   vote will not be disclosed either within Carnival or to third parties except
   (1) as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements, (2) to allow for the
   tabulation of votes and certification of the vote, or (3) to facilitate a
   successful proxy solicitation by our board of directors. Occasionally,
   shareholders provide written comments on their proxy card which are then
   forwarded to management.


                                      9



Q: Who will bear the cost of soliciting votes for the meeting?

A: We will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and
   distributing this proxy statement/prospectus and soliciting votes for the
   meeting. We will also reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians,
   nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for
   forwarding proxy materials to shareholders.

Q: What do I need to do now?

A: You should thoroughly read this proxy statement/prospectus and indicate on
   your proxy card how you want to vote your shares of common stock. You should
   sign and mail your proxy card in the enclosed envelope as soon as possible
   so that your shares of common stock may be represented at the special
   meeting on April 14, 2003. If you sign and send in your proxy card and do
   not indicate how you want to vote, your proxy will be counted as a vote
   "FOR" the proposals. If you abstain, your failure to vote will have the
   effect of a vote against the proposals.

   On behalf of the Board of Directors

          Arnaldo Perez
          Senior Vice President,
          General Counsel and Secretary

Dated:  March 17, 2003



                                      10



                  SUMMARY TERM SHEET FOR THE DLC TRANSACTION

This summary contains selected information from this proxy statement/prospectus
and may not contain all of the information that is important to you. To
understand the DLC transaction fully and to obtain a more complete description
of its terms, you should carefully read this entire document, including the
Annexes, and the documents to which we refer you. See "Where You Can Find More
Information".

The DLC transaction is a means of enabling us and P&O Princess to combine our
management and operations as if we were a single economic enterprise, while
retaining our separate legal identities. This will be accomplished through
contractual arrangements (addressed in Proposal 1) and amendments to each
company's governing documents. In addition, the governing documents of the two
companies will be harmonized, to the extent practicable and permitted by law,
to ensure our and P&O Princess' corporate procedures are substantially similar.
You will be voting on the changes to our governing documents (our articles of
incorporation and by-laws) to give effect to these arrangements (addressed in
Proposal 2) as well as other amendments to our articles of incorporation and
by-laws which, although consistent with the amendments relating to the DLC
transaction are not directly related to the DLC transaction (Proposals 3, 4, 5
and 6).

Proposals To Be Voted On

  Proposal 1--Approval of the Offer and Implementation Agreement (Page 104)

You are being asked to approve the Offer and Implementation Agreement, which is
attached as Annex A-1, and related transactions required to effect the DLC
transaction. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all
outstanding Carnival shares entitled to vote at the special meeting is required
to approve the Offer and Implementation Agreement.

The Offer and Implementation Agreement sets forth the conditions which must be
satisfied or waived by us and P&O Princess prior to completion of the DLC
transaction and outlines the transactions to be effected at the closing of the
DLC transaction. These include:

..   amendments to our governing documents and the governing documents of P&O
    Princess;

..   entry into the Equalization and Governance Agreement between us and P&O
    Princess, which will govern the future relationship of Carnival and P&O
    Princess under a dual listed company structure;

..   issuance by each of us and P&O Princess of special voting shares; and

..   election of the same individuals as members of the board of directors of
    each of Carnival and P&O Princess.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the
Offer and Implementation Agreement and related transactions.

  Proposal 2--Approval of Amendments to Carnival's Articles of Incorporation
  and By-laws (Page 119)

You are also being asked to approve proposed amendments to our articles of
association and by-laws (as reflected in our proposed Third Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws, other than
the amendments covered by Proposals 3, 4, 5 and 6). Our proposed Third Amended
and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and By-laws are attached as
Annexes A-4 and A-5 to this proxy statement/prospectus. The affirmative vote of
the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of our common stock
entitled to vote at the special meeting is required to approve the amendments
to our articles of incorporation and by-laws.

Amendments to certain provisions of our existing articles of incorporation and
by-laws are necessary in order to harmonize the governing documents of Carnival
and P&O Princess. Upon completion of the

                                      11



DLC transaction, equivalent changes will be made to the governing documents of
P&O Princess. These proposed amendments depart from our existing articles of
incorporation and by-laws in areas such as the election and removal of
directors, calling of shareholders' meetings and the vote required to approve
certain matters. We are also eliminating the requirement that our annual
meeting be held in March or April of each year so that we may hold our annual
meeting at the same time P&O Princess holds its annual meeting.

We are proposing to increase our authorized capital stock to 2,000,000,000
shares, of which 1,959,999,998 are shares of common stock and 40,000,000 are
shares of preferred stock. In connection with the DLC transaction, we will also
have one share of special voting stock, which we refer to in this proxy
statement/prospectus as a special voting share, and one share of special stock,
which we refer to in this proxy statement/prospectus as the equalization share.
You are being asked to vote separately on the proposal to increase in the
number of shares of common stock that we have the authority to issue (Proposal
3), other than the increase of two shares (the special voting share and the
equalization share), which are covered by Proposal 2 as they are directly
related to the DLC transaction.
If approved, our Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation would
become effective when filed with the Public Registry Office of the Republic of
Panama, which is planned to occur upon completion of the DLC transaction. The
Amended and Restated By-laws would become effective at the same time. Approval
of this proposal is a condition to the parties' obligation to complete the DLC
transaction.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the amendments to our
articles of incorporation and by-laws.

The transactions contemplated by the Offer and Implementation Agreement will
not be completed and the amendments to our articles of incorporation and
by-laws in connection with the DLC transaction will not be effected unless
Proposal 1 and Proposal 2 are approved by our shareholders and the DLC
transaction is approved by the shareholders of P&O Princess.
Proposal 3 - Approval of Amendment to Carnival's Articles of Incorporation to
Increase the Number of Shares of Common Stock Authorized for Issuance (Page 125)
You are also being asked to approve an amendment to our articles of
incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock that we have the
authority to issue by 999,999,998 shares. The affirmative vote of the holders
of a majority of all outstanding shares of our common stock is required to
approve this amendment to our articles of incorporation.
Our board of directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the amendment to our
articles of incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock that
we have the authority to issue by 999,999,998 shares.
Proposal 4 - Approval of Amendment to Carnival's Articles of Incorporation to
Reduce the Quorum Requirement for Board Meetings (Page 125 )
You are also being asked to approve an amendment to our articles of
incorporation to add a provision to reduce the quorum requirement for meetings
of the board of directors from a majority, to one-third, of the total number of
directors. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding
shares of our common stock is required to approve this amendment to our
articles of incorporation.

                                      12



Our board of directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the amendment to our
articles of incorporation to reduce the quorum requirement for meetings of the
board of directors from a majority, to one-third, of the total number of
directors.

Proposal 5--Approval of Amendment to Carnival's By-Laws to Reduce the Quorum
Requirement for Shareholder Meetings (Page 126)

You are also being asked to approve an amendment to our by-laws to reduce the
quorum requirement for meetings of our shareholders from a majority, to
one-third, of the total number of shares entitled to be cast at such meeting.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of
our common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting is required to approve
this amendment to our by-laws.

Proposal 6--Approval of Amendment to Carnival's By-Laws to Remove the Ability
of Shareholders to Act by Written Consent (Page 126)

You are also being asked to approve an amendment to our by-laws to remove the
ability of shareholders to act by written consent. The affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to
vote at the special meeting is required to approve this amendment to our
by-laws.

Proposals 3, 4, 5 and 6 are conditioned upon the approval of Proposals 1 and 2
by our shareholders. If the Offer and Implementation Agreement and related
amendments to our articles of incorporation and by-laws are not approved by our
shareholders, and the DLC transaction is not approved by the shareholders of
P&O Princess, our authorized common stock will not be increased, the quorum
requirement for director and shareholder meetings will not be reduced and
shareholders will continue to have the ability to act by written consent. If
any or all of Proposal 3, Proposal 4, Proposal 5 or Proposal 6 are not
approved, such disapproval will have no effect on the DLC transaction.

Reasons for the DLC Transaction (Page 48)

We and P&O Princess have agreed to enter into the DLC transaction in order to
create the Combined Group, which will reflect the businesses of Carnival and
P&O Princess that will be managed and operated as if they were a single
economic enterprise. The Combined Group will be the largest cruise vacation
group in the world, based on revenue, passengers carried and available
capacity. The DLC transaction will allow the Combined Group to offer a wider
range of vacation choices for its passengers and will enhance its ability to
attract more passengers from land-based vacations. As of January 31, 2003,
Carnival, together with P&O Princess, would have had a combined fleet of 65
cruise ships offering 99,982 lower berths. The Combined Group will be a leading
provider of cruises to all major destinations outside the Far East.

The DLC Structure (Page 50)

After giving effect to the DLC transaction, we and P&O Princess each will
remain as a separate publicly quoted company, although we and P&O Princess will
be managed and operated as if we were a single economic enterprise. Our board
and the P&O Princess board will be identical and the Combined Group will be
managed by a single senior executive management team. The two companies will
pursue a common set of business objectives established by the identical boards
and single management team, who will evaluate these strategies and other
operational decisions from the perspective of all the shareholders. Some key
features of the DLC structure are listed below.

..   Our shares and, for the foreseeable future, P&O Princess American
    Depositary Shares, or ADSs, will continue to be listed on the NYSE and P&O
    Princess shares will continue to have their primary listing on the LSE.

..   The implementation of the DLC structure will not involve any transfer of
    assets between us and P&O Princess. Following completion of the DLC
    transaction, management of the Combined Group will determine whether assets
    will be owned by Carnival or P&O Princess as is most efficient and
    appropriate under the then prevailing circumstances. The Combined Group
    will comprise all of the assets held by P&O Princess and Carnival
    immediately prior to the implementation of the DLC transaction. No transfer
    of assets between the two companies will affect the equalization ratio or
    the relative economic interests of Carnival shareholders and P&O Princess
    shareholders in the Combined Group.

                                      14



..   Carnival shareholders will continue to hold their Carnival shares and P&O
    Princess shareholders will continue to hold their P&O Princess shares,
    unless P&O Princess shareholders elect to exchange their P&O Princess
    shares (up to a maximum of 20% of the outstanding shares of P&O Princess)
    for Carnival shares in the Partial Share Offer. If the full 20% is tendered
    in the Partial Share Offer, approximately 79% of the equity of the Combined
    Group will be held through Carnival shares and the balance will be held
    through P&O Princess shares.

..   The economic and voting interests represented by an individual share in
    each company will be equalized based on a ratio, which we refer to in this
    proxy statement/prospectus as the "equalization ratio." The equalization
    ratio will initially be 0.3004 Carnival shares for each P&O Princess share
    and P&O Princess ADS. Upon completion of the DLC transaction, P&O Princess
    will reorganize and consolidate its share capital so that the equalization
    ratio will be one Carnival share for each P&O Princess share.

..   The equalization ratio is subject to adjustment in a limited number of
    circumstances, as described in the section of this proxy
    statement/prospectus entitled "The Equalization and Governance
    Agreement--Equalization Ratio."

..   As a result of the 1:1 equalization ratio, one Carnival share will have the
    same rights to distributions of income and capital and voting rights as one
    P&O Princess share. Carnival and P&O Princess shareholders initially will
    receive equal quarterly dividends. If the equalization ratio is adjusted to
    a value other than 1:1, Carnival and P&O Princess shares will no longer
    have equivalent rights, as described in the section of this proxy
    statement/prospectus entitled "The Equalization and Governance
    Agreement--Equalization Ratio."

..   On most matters that affect all shareholders of the Combined Group,
    Carnival and P&O Princess shareholders will vote together as a single body.
    These matters are called joint electorate actions.

..   On specified matters where the interests of Carnival shareholders may
    differ from the interests of P&O Princess shareholders, each shareholder
    body will vote separately as a class. These matters are called class rights
    actions and include, among others:

   .   transactions primarily designed to amend or unwind the DLC structure;

   .   adjustments to the equalization ratio not in accordance with the
       Equalization and Governance Agreement; and

   .   amendments to tax related provisions in Carnival's articles of
       incorporation.

   No class rights action generally may be implemented unless approved by both
   shareholder bodies, which means that each shareholder body generally has a
   veto with respect to class rights actions.

..   We and P&O Princess each will continue to have separate boards of
    directors, but the boards and senior executive management of both companies
    will be identical. In addition to their normal fiduciary duties to the
    company and obligation to have regard to the interests of its shareholders,
    the directors of each company will be entitled to have regard to the
    interests of the other company and its shareholders.

..   We and P&O Princess will execute cross-guarantees regarding all debt
    incurred after implementation of the DLC structure by either company as if
    we and P&O Princess were a single economic enterprise.

..   Takeover restrictions will be in place so that, generally, no person will
    be able to obtain control over the Combined Group without making an offer
    to the shareholders of both companies on equivalent terms.

..   Neither Carnival nor P&O Princess will be able to issue any shares carrying
    voting rights to the other, except on a pre-emptive basis to all
    shareholders, for two years following the date on which

                                      15



   the DLC structure is implemented. After expiration of the initial two-year
   period, for each of the subsequent three years neither Carnival nor P&O
   Princess may issue shares carrying voting rights to the other company,
   except on a pre-emptive basis to all shareholders, in excess of 5% per year
   of the issued or outstanding shares (calculated as at the first day in such
   annual period). Thereafter, there will be no restriction on the issuance of
   shares carrying voting rights to the other company or any of that company's
   subsidiaries. These restrictions may be varied by a class rights action.

..   Shares held by one company in the other will not have voting rights unless
    such company holds 90% or more of the outstanding shares of the other.

Highlights of the Combined Group (Page 60)

The Combined Group will be the leading global cruise vacation operator with
brands appealing to the widest target audience, focused on sourcing passengers
from developed vacation markets where cruising is one of the largest and
fastest growing vacation alternatives. We expect to market certain of
the Combined Group's brands to enter into and expand developing vacation
markets. In pursuit of this strategy, the companies of the Combined Group will
seek to:

..   Build on brand strengths

   The Combined Group will have some of the most widely recognized cruise
   brands in North America, Europe, South America (primarily Brazil and
   Argentina) and Australia and will be a leading provider of cruise vacations
   to all of the key cruise destinations outside the Far East. We expect the
   Combined Group to continue to grow its brands and broaden and develop the
   range of its destinations, itineraries, tours and vacation alternatives.

..   Increase global presence

   The Combined Group will be one of the leading cruise vacation companies in
   the UK, Germany and southern Europe, which are three of the largest vacation
   markets outside of North America. We believe that the brand offering and
   diversified fleet of the Combined Group will enable it to accelerate the
   entry of cruising into existing and new geographical vacation markets.

..   Maximize growth through strategic deployment of its brands and fleet

   The Combined Group expects to strategically deploy its diversified fleet in
   order to increase its global reach and enter new and developing markets.
   Such strategic deployment is expected to allow the Combined Group to appeal
   to the largest target audience with brands, products and itineraries with
   the widest appeal in a particular geographic region.

..   Realize cost savings

   Carnival and P&O Princess expect that the Combined Group will generate
   significant cost savings, estimated to be at least $100 million on an
   annualized basis, commencing in the first full fiscal year following
   completion of the DLC transaction. Carnival and P&O Princess expect that
   these cost savings will be generated principally through the dissemination
   of best practices between the companies, economies of scale and the
   rationalization of certain shoreside operations. One-time cash costs of
   achieving these cost savings are expected to be approximately $30 million.

Conditions to the DLC Transaction (Page 105)

Completion of the DLC transaction is subject to certain conditions being
satisfied or waived on or before September 30, 2003. The most important of
these include:

..   approval of the shareholders of each of Carnival and P&O Princess;

..   the absence of action, or threatened action, by any governmental authority
    that restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the completion or
    performance of, or materially adversely affects, the DLC transaction and
    the other transactions contemplated by the Offer and Implementation
    Agreement;

                                      16



..   effectiveness of the revised governing documents of each of Carnival and
    P&O Princess;

..   clearance of the DLC transaction under the European Commission merger
    regulation and all other relevant regulatory consents or approvals having
    been obtained;

..   the Partial Share Offer becoming unconditional (other than the condition
    regarding completion of the Offer and Implementation Agreement); and

..   approval by the NYSE of the listing of either the trust shares of
    beneficial interest or the P&O Princess special voting share, subject in
    either case only to official notice of issuance.

Termination of the Offer and Implementation Agreement (Page 108)

The Offer and Implementation Agreement may be terminated, and the DLC
transaction abandoned, before the DLC transaction is scheduled to be completed
if the P&O Princess board and Carnival board mutually agree to do so. In
addition, the Offer and Implementation Agreement may be terminated, and the DLC
transaction abandoned by action of either the Carnival board or the P&O
Princess board, as applicable, if:

..   the DLC transaction is not completed by September 30, 2003;

..   any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has issued a final,
    non-appealable order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise
    prohibiting completion of the DLC transaction or materially adversely
    affecting the DLC transaction;

..   the shareholders of either party fail to approve the DLC transaction at the
    relevant shareholders' meeting called for the purpose of considering and
    voting upon the DLC transaction and other transactions necessary to
    complete the DLC transaction;

..   the board of directors of the other party, at any time prior to the
    relevant shareholders' meeting, withdraws or adversely modifies its
    approval or recommendation of the DLC transaction or has resolved to take
    such action, or has failed to reconfirm such approval or recommendation at
    the request of the other party;

..   the board of directors of the other party has recommended a superior
    acquisition proposal to its shareholders; or

..   the other party materially breaches any representation, warranty, covenant
    or agreement contained in the Offer and Implementation Agreement that
    causes the failure of certain conditions to closing and such breach cannot
    be or has not been cured prior to termination.

Neither party may terminate the Offer and Implementation Agreement if that
party has breached in any material respect its obligations under the Offer and
Implementation Agreement and such breach contributed to the failure of the DLC
transaction to be completed.

Termination Fee

In certain circumstances, if the Offer and Implementation Agreement is
terminated, a termination fee of $49.4 million, representing 1% of P&O
Princess' market capitalization at the close of business on January 7, 2003,
will be required to be paid by Carnival or P&O Princess.

No Consideration Payable

There is no consideration payable to us or you in connection with the DLC
transaction. The consideration exchanged between us and P&O Princess will be
the execution and delivery by each company of the agreements required to
implement the DLC structure, including certain cross-guarantees regarding
future debt of either company.

                                      17



Required Vote

Approval of the Offer and Implementation Agreement (Proposal 1) and related
transactions required to effect the DLC transaction, including the necessary
amendments to our articles of incorporation and by-laws (Proposal 2) and the
additional proposed amendments to our articles of incorporation and by-laws
(Proposals 3, 4, 5 and 6) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of all
outstanding Carnival shares entitled to vote at the special meeting.

Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders (Page 86)

In order to harmonize the governing documents of Carnival and P&O Princess and
give effect to the DLC structure, it is necessary to amend certain provisions
of our existing articles of incorporation and by-laws. You are being asked to
approve these amendments at the special meeting. The most important of these
changes include:

..   equalizing the economic and voting rights of shareholders of both companies
    based on the equalization ratio;

..   providing that Carnival and P&O Princess shareholders vote together as a
    single body on most matters, except where the interests of the Carnival
    shareholders diverge from the interests of the P&O Princess shareholders or
    where the matter is procedural or technical;

..   authorizing a special voting share as a means to implement the new voting
    arrangements;

..   requiring any resolutions, other than resolutions relating to procedural or
    technical matters, to be voted on by the shareholders of both Carnival and
    P&O Princess;

..   authorizing the Carnival board to consider the interests of both Carnival
    and P&O Princess and their shareholders; and

..   adding additional takeover provisions so that, generally, no person will be
    able to obtain control over the Combined Group without making an offer to
    the shareholders of both companies on equivalent terms. These new takeover
    provisions are in addition to existing provisions in our articles of
    incorporation that prevent any person(s) (other than the Arison family and
    its permitted transferees) from acquiring more than 4.9% of the beneficial
    ownership of our shares. While both the mandatory offer protection and 4.9%
    ownership threshold remain in place, no third party other than the Arison
    family and trusts for their benefit will be able to acquire control of the
    Combined Group.

Special Voting Entities; Special Voting Shares (Page 52)

As a mechanism to effect the new voting arrangements resulting from the DLC
structure, two new special voting entities will be formed:

..   The Carnival Special Voting Entity (which will hold the special voting
    share to be voted at Carnival shareholders meetings, in order to give
    effect to the outcome of votes at a parallel P&O shareholders meeting for
    purposes of joint electorate actions and class rights actions) is a company
    whose shares will be held legally and beneficially owned by The Law
    Debenture Trust Corporation p.l.c., an independent trustee company
    incorporated in England and Wales.

..   The P&O Princess Special Voting Trust (the trustee of which will hold the
    special voting share to be voted at the P&O Princess shareholders meetings,
    in order to give effect to the outcome of votes at a parallel Carnival
    shareholders meeting for purposes of joint electorate actions and class
    rights actions) will be a trust established under the laws of the Cayman
    Islands.

On completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival will issue the Carnival special
voting share to the Carnival Special Voting Entity, and the P&O Princess
special voting share will be transferred to the trustee of the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust.

                                      18



Trust Shares of Beneficial Interest (Page 53)

Trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust
will be transferred to Carnival. Immediately following this transfer, Carnival
will distribute the trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust by way of a dividend to Carnival shareholders of record at
the close of business on April 17, 2003. Separate certificates will not be
issued to represent these trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O
Princess Special Voting Trust; instead, the trust shares of beneficial interest
will be paired with, and evidenced by, certificates representing Carnival
shares pursuant to a pairing agreement to be entered into between Carnival and
the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust at closing of the DLC transaction.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival shares will trade in
units consisting of one Carnival share and one trust share of beneficial
interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust. The trust shares of
beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will entitle
Carnival shareholders to receive any distributions made by the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust. As the sole purpose of the P&O Princess Special Voting
Trust relates to the holding of the P&O Princess special voting share, it is
not expected to make any distributions.

The P&O Princess special voting share will be voted based upon the outcome of
voting at the relevant parallel meeting of Carnival shareholders, based on the
votes cast by Carnival shareholders voting their Carnival shares.

Accounting Treatment (Page 55)

We expect to account for the DLC transaction as a purchase by Carnival of P&O
Princess. We also expect that under U.S. GAAP the DLC transaction will be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations". In
accordance with the purchase method of accounting, the P&O Princess U.S. GAAP
accounting policies will be conformed to our accounting policies upon
completion of the DLC transaction.

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences (Page 55)

Although there is no U.S. federal income tax authority addressing the tax
consequences of a DLC transaction, we believe that the DLC transaction should
not give rise to taxable income or gain for U.S. Carnival shareholders that are
U.S. holders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, the IRS may assert
that U.S. Carnival shareholders received taxable income as a result of the
various voting and equalization provisions necessary to implement the DLC
structure, including the trust shares. We believe that such voting and other
rights, if any, received by shareholders are expected to have only nominal
value and, therefore, the receipt of such rights by U.S. Carnival shareholders
would only result in a nominal amount of income. It is possible, however, that
the IRS may disagree with this conclusion.

Holders of Carnival shares should consult their independent professional
advisers in the light of their particular circumstances as to the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of the DLC transaction, as well as to the effect of any
state, local or applicable foreign tax law.

Regulatory Approvals (Page 55)

The DLC transaction is conditioned upon the receipt of certain regulatory
approvals and consents. We have received clearance from the U.S. Federal Trade
Commission and the European Commission for the DLC transaction, and therefore
no further regulatory approvals are required.

No Appraisal Rights (Page 55)

You have no right to an appraisal of the value of your shares in connection
with the DLC transaction.

                                      19



Mandatory Exchange (Page 110)

In certain limited circumstances following implementation of the DLC structure,
P&O Princess shares, other than those held by us, may be subject to a mandatory
exchange for Carnival shares at the then prevailing equalization ratio. A
mandatory exchange can occur if there is a change in applicable tax laws, rules
or regulations that the board of directors of P&O Princess reasonably
determines is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Combined Group and the exchange is approved by 66 2/3% of the shareholders of
P&O Princess and Carnival voting on a joint electorate action. A mandatory
exchange can also be triggered if there is a change in the applicable non-tax
laws, rules or regulations, as a result of which the board of directors of P&O
Princess reasonably determines that it is reasonably likely that all or a
substantial portion of the agreements that give effect to the DLC structure are
unlawful, illegal or unenforceable. Were either of these changes to occur, we
would issue additional shares to deliver to P&O Princess shareholders in
accordance with the then prevailing equalization ratio and we would own 100% of
P&O Princess. Your Carnival shares will not be subject to any mandatory
exchange for P&O Princess shares.

Partial Share Offer

In connection with the DLC transaction, we are making a Partial Share Offer to
P&O Princess shareholders to exchange all or part of their P&O Princess shares
for Carnival shares, subject to an aggregate maximum of 20% of P&O Princess'
outstanding shares. The Partial Share Offer is not being made to you. If the
DLC transaction is not completed due to lack of shareholder approval or for any
other reason, the Partial Share Offer will not be completed. The Partial Share
offer is designed to allow those P&O Princess shareholders who would prefer to
hold their interests in the Combined Group through Carnival shares listed on
the NYSE to exchange P&O Princess shares for Carnival shares if the DLC
transaction is completed. To the extent P&O Princess shares are exchanged in
the Partial Share Offer, the aggregate equity interests in the Combined Group
held through Carnival shares immediately after completion of the DLC
transaction will increase from approximately 74% to a maximum of approximately
79%. In no event will the take up of the Partial Share Offer affect the
equalization ratio.

Arison Family and Associates

Micky Arison (our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who will also become
the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of P&O Princess following completion
of the DLC transaction), other members of the Arison family and trusts for
their benefit have entered into undertakings under which they will be required
to cause shares beneficially owned by them representing approximately 47% of
the voting rights in Carnival to vote in favor of the proposals at the special
meeting. These undertakings are irrevocable except in circumstances where the
DLC proposal is withdrawn or lapses.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Micky Arison, other members of the
Arison family and trusts for their benefit will beneficially own shares
representing approximately 35% of the combined voting power of the outstanding
shares of the Combined Group. There are certain restrictions on their ability
to increase their aggregate holdings beyond 40% of the voting power of the
Combined Group, unless they acquire additional shares or voting power by making
comparable offers to acquire all the equity of the Combined Group.

We are, and following implementation of the DLC structure the Combined Group
will be, capable of carrying on its operations independently of this group of
controlling shareholders. Carnival has a policy to ensure that all transactions
and relationships between it and its affiliated entities (which would include
the controlling shareholders and entities controlled by them) are on an
arm's-length basis and also on a normal commercial basis (i.e., it may not
engage in business transactions with any affiliate on

                                      20



terms and conditions less favourable to Carnival than the terms and conditions
available at the time for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons).
On completion of the DLC transaction, P&O Princess will adopt a similar policy
on transactions with this group of controlling shareholders so that, following
implementation of the DLC structure, any business transactions between the
Combined Group and this group of controlling shareholders will be at arm's
length and on a normal commercial basis.

Cautionary Note Concerning Factors That May Affect Future Results (Page 40)

Certain statements contained in this proxy statement/prospectus are
"forward-looking statements" that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions
with respect to us and P&O Princess and therefore, the Combined Group,
including certain statements concerning the transactions described in this
proxy statement/prospectus, future results, plans and goals and other events
which have not yet occurred. You can find many (but not all) of these
statements by looking for words like "will," "may," "believes," "expects,"
"anticipates," "forecasts," "future," intends," "plans" and "estimates" and for
similar expressions.

Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are
many factors that could cause the transactions described in this proxy
statement/prospectus not to occur and/or each of our, P&O Princess' and the
Combined Group's actual results, performance or achievements to differ
materially from those expressed or implied in this proxy statement/prospectus.
These factors include, but are not limited to, regulatory and shareholder
approvals of the DLC transaction, achievement of expected benefits from the DLC
transaction, risks associated with the combination of Carnival's and P&O
Princess' businesses by means of a DLC structure and liquidity and index
inclusion as a result of the implementation of the DLC structure, including a
possible mandatory exchange.

(a)From June 1997 through September 28, 2000, Carnival owned 50% of Costa
   Cruises. On September 29, 2000, Carnival completed the acquisition of the
   remaining 50% interest in Costa. Carnival accounted for this transaction
   using the purchase accounting method. Prior to the fiscal 2000 acquisition,
   Carnival accounted for its 50% interest in Costa using the equity method.
   Commencing in fiscal 2001, Costa's results of operations have been
   consolidated in the same manner as Carnival's other wholly-owned
   subsidiaries. Carnival's November 30, 2000 and subsequent consolidated
   balance sheets include Costa's balance sheet. All statistical information
   prior to 2001 does not include Costa. See Notes 5 and 17 in Carnival's 2002
   consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated by reference in
   this proxy statement/prospectus.

(b)Effective December 1, 2001, Carnival adopted Statement of Financial
   Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
   Assets", which requires that companies stop amortising goodwill and requires
   an annual, or when events or circumstances dictate a more frequent,
   impairment review of goodwill. Accordingly, as of December 1, 2001, Carnival
   no longer amortises its goodwill. If goodwill had not been recorded for
   periods prior to December 1, 2001, Carnival's adjusted net income and
   adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share would have been as follows
   (U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share data):

(c)Carnival's net income for fiscal 2001 and 2002 includes an impairment charge
   of $140 million and $20 million, respectively, and fiscal 2001 includes a
   nonoperating net gain of $101 million from the sale of Carnival's investment
   in Airtours. In addition, fiscal 2002 included a $51 million income tax
   benefit as a result of a new Italian investment incentive, which allows
   Costa to receive an income tax benefit based on contractual expenditures
   during 2002 on construction of new ships. See Notes 4, 5 and 9 in Carnival's
   2002 consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated by reference
   in this document.

(d)The 1998 per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect a two-for-one stock
   split effective June 12, 1998.

(e)Represents the total annual passenger capacity, assuming two passengers per
   cabin, that Carnival's ships offered for sale, which is computed by
   multiplying passenger capacity by ship operating days.

(f)In accordance with cruise industry practice, occupancy percentage is
   calculated based upon two passengers per cabin even though some cabins can
   accommodate three or more passengers. The percentages in excess of 100%
   indicate that more than two passengers occupied some cabins.

(g)Effective December 1, 2000, Carnival adopted SFAS No. 133, which requires
   that all derivative instruments be recorded on Carnival's balance sheet.
   Total assets at November 30, 2001 and 2002 included $567 million and $178
   million, respectively, which represents the fair value of hedged firm
   commitments. See Note 2 in Carnival's 2002 consolidated financial
   statements, which are incorporated by reference in this document.

(h)Represents the percentage of total debt to the sum of total debt and
   shareholders' equity.

--------
(a)Prior to the de-merger of P&O Princess from The Peninsular and Oriental
   Steam Navigation Company in 2000, no combined financial statements had been
   prepared for the companies and businesses comprising P&O Princess. The
   financial information for fiscal years 1998 and 1999 has been extracted from
   KPMG Audit Plc's accountants' report on P&O Princess contained in the
   listing particulars dated September 26, 2000 which were prepared for the
   de-merger.
(b)In fiscal 2002, net operating costs under UK GAAP included U.S.$117.0
   million of transaction costs.
(c)At January 1, 2002, P&O Princess adopted FRS 19. The 2001 balance sheet was
   restated to reflect full provision for deferred tax, an increase in deferred
   tax liabilities of $108.1 million. The tax credit for the year to December
   31, 2001 has been increased to reflect the elimination of the majority of
   future potential tax liabilities upon P&O Princess' election to enter the UK
   tonnage tax regime by $96.8 million. The profit and loss account and balance
   sheet information for each of the three years ended December 31, 2000 have
   also been restated for the adoption of Financial Reporting Standard 19:
   Deferred Tax.
(d)Defined as profit before fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest) and
   taxation divided by fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of the net interest
   expense in the profit and loss account, interest capitalized in respect of
   ships and other fixed assets and an estimate of the interest implicit in
   operating lease rentals.
(e)At January 1, 2001, P&O Princess adopted SFAS No. 133. The cumulative effect
   of the change in this accounting policy at that date was a charge of $9.0
   million, which is included in net income for fiscal 2001. The basic and
   diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2001 is after the cumulative effect of
   the change in this accounting principle.
(f)Under UK GAAP the year ended December 31, 2001 includes a tax credit of
   $97.5 million, comprising a credit from the release of deferred tax on entry
   into the tonnage tax regime of $192.5 million and tax charges arising from
   internal corporate restructuring of $95.0 million. The U.S. GAAP tax credit
   for the year ended December 31, 2001 is for the release of deferred taxes.
(g)  EffectiveJanuary 1, 2002, P&O Princess adopted SFAS No 142, which requires
              that companies stop amortizing goodwill and requires an annual,
              or when events or circumstances dictate a more frequent,
              impairment review of goodwill. Accordingly, as of January 1, 2002
              P&O Princess no longer amortizes its goodwill. If goodwill had
              not been recorded for periods prior to January 1, 2002 P&O
              Princess' adjusted net income and adjusted basic and diluted
              earnings per share would have been as follows:

The following table sets forth selected historical and pro forma per share data
for Carnival and historical and pro forma equivalent per share data for P&O
Princess prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The unaudited pro forma net
income and book value data give effect to the transaction as if it was
completed on November 30, 2002 for balance sheet purposes and December 1, 2001
for statement of operations purposes and are based on the unaudited pro forma
combined financial information of Carnival and P&O Princess prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP included in this proxy statement/prospectus. The
unaudited pro forma per share data should be read in conjunction with the
historical audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements and related
notes of Carnival included in "Selected Historical Financial and Operating Data
of Carnival" and the historical audited and unaudited consolidated financial
statements and related notes of P&O Princess included in "Selected Historical
Financial Data of P&O Princess". The P&O Princess pro forma equivalent per
share data were calculated by multiplying the Carnival pro forma per share data
by an exchange ratio of 0.3004.

The unaudited pro forma combined per share data may not be indicative of the
operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the DLC
transaction had been completed at the beginning of the period indicated, and
may not be indicative of future operating results or financial position.

The "equivalent per ordinary share price" of the P&O Princess shares and the
"equivalent per ADS price" of P&O Princess ADSs represents the value that would
have been received by a P&O Princess shareholder accepting the Partial Share
Offer for each P&O Princess share or P&O Princess ADS at these prices of
Carnival shares, calculated by multiplying the applicable middle-market
quotation for Carnival shares by 0.3004 and 1.2016, respectively, which is the
fraction of a Carnival share being offered in exchange for each of the issued
P&O Princess shares and P&O Princess ADSs, respectively, in the Partial Share
Offer.

                                 RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information contained in or incorporated by reference
into this proxy/prospectus (including the risk factors contained in Carnival's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2002 and P&O
Princess' Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2002), you
should consider the following risk factors before deciding how to vote on the
DLC transaction.

Risks relating to the DLC transaction

Benefits from the DLC structure may not be achieved to the extent or within the
time period currently expected, which could eliminate, reduce and/or delay the
improvements in cost savings and operational efficiencies expected to be
generated by the DLC structure.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, we and P&O Princess will be
managed as if we were a single economic enterprise. We expect the combination
of Carnival and P&O Princess under the DLC structure to enable us to achieve
cost savings through synergies as well as enhanced operational efficiencies.
However, we may encounter substantial difficulties during this process that
could eliminate, reduce and/or delay the realization of the cost savings and
synergies that we currently expect. Among other things, these difficulties
could include:

..  loss of key employees;

..  inconsistent and/or incompatible business practices, operating procedures,
   information systems, financial controls and procedures, cultures and
   compensation structures between us and P&O Princess;

..  unexpected integration issues and higher than expected integration costs; and

..  the diversion of management's attention from day-to-day business as a result
   of the need to deal with integration issues.

As a result of these difficulties, the actual cost savings and synergies
generated by the DLC structure may be less, and may take longer to realize,
than we currently expect.

The structure of the DLC transaction involves risks not associated with the
more common ways of combining the operations of two companies and these risks
may have an adverse effect on the economic performance of the companies and/or
their respective share prices.

The DLC structure is a relatively uncommon way of combining the management and
operations of two companies and it involves different issues and risks than
those associated with the other more common ways of effecting such a
combination, such as a merger or exchange offer to create a wholly owned
subsidiary. In the DLC transaction, the combination will be effected primarily
by means of contracts between us and P&O Princess and not by operation of a
statute or court order. The legal effect of these contractual rights may be
different than the legal effect of a merger or amalgamation under statute or
court order and there may be difficulties in enforcing these contractual
rights. In addition, the contracts will be enforceable only by the companies
and not directly by their shareholders. Nevertheless, shareholders of either
company might challenge the validity of the contracts or their lack of standing
to enforce rights under these contracts, and courts may interpret or enforce
these contracts in a manner inconsistent with the express provisions and
intentions of Carnival and P&O Princess expressed in such contracts. In
addition, shareholders of other companies might successfully challenge other
dual listed company structures and establish legal precedents that could
increase the risk of a successful challenge to the DLC transaction. The
Combined Group will maintain two separate public companies and comply with both
Panamanian corporate law and English company and securities laws and different
regulatory and stock exchange requirements in the UK and the U.S. This is
likely to require more administrative time and cost than is currently the case
for each company, which may have an adverse effect on the Combined Group's
operating efficiency.

                                      31



The shares of Carnival and P&O Princess may not trade in line with the
equalization ratio.

The economic interests of the shares of Carnival and P&O Princess will be
contractually aligned in accordance with the equalization ratio. However,
because the shares of the two companies will remain outstanding, will not be
exchangeable for each other at the option of the shareholder and will primarily
trade in separate markets with different characteristics and in different
currencies, the relative market prices of the shares of Carnival and P&O
Princess may not exactly reflect the equalization ratio. P&O Princess shares
could trade at a discount to the Carnival shares because P&O Princess shares
will represent between 21% and 26% of the equity of the Combined Group.

Courts may interpret or enforce the contracts and other instruments that effect
the DLC structure in a manner inconsistent with the express provisions and
intentions of Carnival and P&O Princess.

Various provisions of the Equalization and Governance Agreement, the companies'
articles and the cross guarantees are intended to ensure that, as far as
practicable, the shareholders of the Combined Group are treated equitably in
the event of insolvency of either or both companies and in accordance with the
equalization ratio, regardless of where the assets of the Combined Group
reside. Courts may interpret or enforce these contracts in a manner
inconsistent with the express provisions and intentions of Carnival and P&O
Princess expressed in such contracts. For instance, a bankruptcy court may not
choose to follow our contractual way of allocating liabilities and assets.
Therefore, were assets transferred between the two companies, a court, faced
with the liquidation or dissolution of either company, may not adhere to the
equalization ratio and the rights of shareholders of the company from which
assets were transferred may be adversely affected.

Economic returns on shares of Carnival and P&O Princess will be dependent upon
the economic performance of the Combined Group and the inability of one company
to pay dividends may limit or prevent the payment of dividends by the other.

Upon implementation of the DLC structure, the dividends paid on shares of
Carnival and P&O Princess will depend primarily on the economic performance of
the assets of both companies of the Combined Group. Therefore, the past
performance of P&O Princess shares and Carnival shares may not reflect the
future performance of these shares. Additionally, if one company is unable to
pay dividends on its shares, the other company must make such payments to the
other and/or scale back its dividend in order to equalize the distributions in
accordance with the equalization ratio. After taking into consideration the
actions necessary to equalize such distributions, both companies may be limited
in their ability, or unable, to pay dividends.

Changes under the Internal Revenue Code, applicable U.S. income tax treaties,
and the uncertainty of the DLC structure under the Internal Revenue Code may
adversely affect the U.S. federal income taxation of the U.S. source shipping
income of the Combined Group.

We and P&O Princess believe that substantially all of the U.S. source shipping
income of each of Carnival and P&O Princess qualifies for exemption from U.S.
federal income tax, either under:

   .   Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code;

   .   as appropriate in the case of P&O Princess and its UK resident
       subsidiaries, under the U.S.-UK Income Tax Treaty; or

   .   other applicable U.S. income tax treaties,

                                      32



and should continue to so qualify after completion of the DLC transaction.
There is, however, no existing U.S. federal income tax authority that directly
addresses the tax consequences of implementation of a dual listed company
structure such as the DLC structure for purposes of Section 883 or any other
provision of the Internal Revenue Code or any income tax treaty and,
consequently, the matters discussed above are not free from doubt. See "The
Combined Group--Taxation of the Combined Group--U.S. Taxation."

To date no final U.S. Treasury regulations or other definitive interpretations
of the relevant portions of Section 883 have been promulgated, although
regulations have been proposed. Any such final regulations or official
interpretations could differ materially from our interpretation of this
Internal Revenue Code provision and, even in the absence of differing
regulations or official interpretations, the Internal Revenue Service might
successfully challenge either or both Carnival's and P&O Princess'
interpretation. In addition, the provisions of Section 883 are subject to
change at any time by legislation. Moreover, changes could occur in the future
with respect to the trading volume or trading frequency of Carnival shares
and/or P&O Princess shares on their respective exchanges or with respect to the
identity, residence, or holdings of Carnival's and/or P&O Princess' direct or
indirect shareholders that could affect the eligibility of Carnival and its
subsidiaries and/or certain members of the P&O Princess Group otherwise
eligible for the benefits of Section 883 to qualify for the benefits of the
Section 883 exemption. Accordingly, it is possible that Carnival and its
ship-owning or operating subsidiaries and/or certain members of the P&O
Princess Group whose tax exemption is based on Section 883 may lose this
exemption. If any such corporation were not entitled to the benefits of Section
883, it would be subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a portion of its
income, which would reduce the net income of such corporation. As used in this
proxy statement/prospectus, "P&O Princess Group" means P&O Princess, its
subsidiaries and its subsidiary undertakings.

As noted above, P&O Princess believes that substantially all of the U.S. source
shipping income of P&O Princess and its UK resident subsidiaries qualifies for
exemption from U.S. federal income tax under the U.S.-UK Income Tax Treaty. The
U.S.-UK Income Tax Treaty has been renegotiated and signed but is pending
ratification by the U.S. P&O Princess believes that substantially all of the
U.S. source shipping income of the companies referred to above should qualify
for exemption from U.S. federal income tax under such treaty if, and as of
when, the pending treaty comes into force. In addition, certain companies of
the Combined Group may rely on other U.S. income tax treaties for similar
exemptions from U.S. taxation on U.S. source shipping income. We and P&O
Princess do not believe that the DLC transaction will affect the ability of
these corporations to continue to qualify for such treaty benefits. There is,
however, no authority that directly addresses the effect, if any, of DLC
arrangements or the availability of benefits under the treaties and,
consequently, the matter is not free from doubt.

These treaties may be abrogated by either applicable country, replaced or
modified with new agreements that treat shipping income differently than under
the agreements currently in force. If any of the corporations discussed in the
paragraph above that currently qualify for exemption from U.S. source shipping
income under any applicable U.S. income tax treaty do not qualify for benefits
under the existing treaties or if the existing treaties are abrogated, replaced
or materially modified in a manner adverse to the interests of any such
corporation and, with respect to U.S. federal income tax only, such corporation
does not qualify for Section 883 exemption, such corporation may be subject to
U.S. federal income taxation on a portion of its income, which would reduce the
net income of any such corporation.

                                      33



A small group of shareholders will collectively own approximately 35% of the
total combined voting power of the outstanding shares of the Combined Group and
may be able to effectively control the outcome of shareholder voting.

A group of shareholders, comprising certain members of the Arison family,
including Micky Arison, and trusts established for their benefit, which
currently beneficially owns approximately 47% of the voting power of Carnival,
will own shares entitled to constitute a quorum at shareholder meetings and to
cast approximately 35% of the total combined voting power of the outstanding
shares of the Combined Group. Depending upon the nature and extent of the
shareholder vote, this group of shareholders may have the power to effectively
control, or at least to influence substantially, the outcome of shareholder
votes and, therefore, the corporate actions requiring such votes.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, fewer shares of P&O Princess will
be required to approve resolutions at P&O Princess shareholder meetings than
would otherwise be the case because:

   .   P&O Princess shares acquired by Carnival in the Partial Share Offer
       (potentially up to 20% of its outstanding shares) or otherwise generally
       will not have voting rights; and

   .   votes at P&O Princess shareholder meetings generally will be carried out
       based on the percentage of shares voting, rather than based on the
       number of shares outstanding.

Provisions in the Carnival and P&O Princess governing documents may prevent or
discourage takeovers and business combinations that shareholders in the
Combined Group might consider in their best interests.

Our articles of incorporation and by-laws and P&O Princess' articles will
contain provisions that may delay, defer, prevent or render more difficult a
takeover attempt that shareholders in the Combined Group might consider to be
in their best interests. For instance, these provisions may prevent
shareholders in the Combined Group from receiving a premium to the market price
of Carnival shares and/or P&O Princess shares offered by a bidder in a takeover
context. These additional takeover restrictions provide, generally, that no
person will be able to obtain control of the Combined Group without making an
offer to the shareholders of both companies on equivalent terms. Even in the
absence of a takeover attempt, the existence of these provisions may adversely
affect the prevailing market price of Carnival shares or P&O Princess shares if
they are viewed as discouraging takeover attempts in the future.

Specifically, our articles of incorporation contain provisions that prevent
third parties, other than the Arison family and trusts for their benefit, from
acquiring beneficial ownership of more than 4.9% of the outstanding Carnival
shares without the consent of our board of directors and provide for the lapse
of rights, and sale, of any shares acquired in excess of that limit. In
addition, our and P&O Princess' governing documents will contain provisions
that would apply some of the anti-takeover protections provided by the UK
Takeover Code to both companies. No third party, other than the Arison family
and trusts for their benefit, may acquire additional shares or voting control
over shares in either company, if such person would then be able to cast 30% or
more of the votes which could be cast on a joint electorate action, without
making an equivalent offer for the other company. Our articles and by-laws will
provide that Carnival shareholders cannot act by written consent. The combined
effect of these provisions may preclude third parties from seeking to acquire a
controlling interest in either company in transactions that shareholders might
consider to be in their best interests and may prevent them from receiving a
premium above market price for their shares. These provisions may only be
amended by both sets of shareholders, voting separately as a class, in a class
rights action.

Risks relating to the Combined Group's businesses

The Combined Group may lose business to competitors throughout the vacation
market.

The Combined Group will operate in the vacation market, and cruising is one of
many alternatives for people choosing a vacation. The Combined Group will
therefore risk losing business not only to other

                                      34



cruise lines, but also to other vacation operators that provide other leisure
options, including hotels, resorts and package holidays and tours.

The Combined Group will face significant competition from other cruise lines,
both on the basis of cruise pricing and also in terms of the nature of ships
and services it will offer to cruise passengers. The Combined Group's principal
competitors within the cruise vacation industry will include:

..   Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., which owns Royal Caribbean International and
    Celebrity Cruises;

..   Norwegian Cruise Line and Orient Lines;

..   Disney Cruise Line;

..   MyTravel's Sun Cruises, Thomson, Saga and Fred Olsen in the UK;

..   Festival Cruises, Hapag-Lloyd, Peter Deilmann and Phoenix Reisen in Germany;

..   Festival Crusies, Mediterranean Shipping Cruises, Royal Olympia Cruises and
    Louis Cruise Line in southern Europe;

..   Crystal Cruises;

..   Radisson Seven Seas Cruise Line; and

..   Silversea Cruises.

The Combined Group will also compete with land-based vacation alternatives
throughout the world, including, among others, resorts and hotels located in
Las Vegas, Nevada, Orlando, Florida, various Caribbean, Mexican, Bahamian and
Hawaiian Island destination resorts and numerous vacation destinations
throughout Europe and the rest of the world.

In the event that the Combined Group does not compete effectively with other
vacation alternatives and cruise companies, its market share could decrease and
its results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Overcapacity within the cruise and competing land-based vacation industry could
have a negative impact on net revenue yields, increase operating costs, result
in ship asset impairments and could adversely affect profitability.

Cruising capacity has grown in recent years and we and P&O Princess expect it
to continue to increase over the next three and a half years as all of the
major cruise vacation companies are expected to introduce new ships. In order
to utilize new capacity, the cruise vacation industry will need to increase its
share of the overall vacation market. The overall vacation market is also
facing increases in land-based vacation capacity, which also will impact the
Combined Group. Failure of the cruise vacation industry to increase its share
of the overall vacation market could have a negative impact on the Combined
Group's net revenue yields. Should net revenue yields be negatively impacted,
the Combined Group's results of operations and financial condition could be
adversely affected, including the impairment of the value of its ship assets.
In addition, increased cruise capacity could impact the Combined Group's
ability to retain and attract qualified crew at competitive costs and,
therefore, increase the Combined Group's shipboard employee costs.

The international political and economic climate and other world events
affecting safety and security could adversely affect the demand for cruises and
could harm the Combined Group's future sales and profitability.

Demand for cruises and other vacation options has been, and is expected to
continue to be, affected by the public's attitude towards the safety of travel,
the international political climate and the political climate of destination
countries. Events such as the terrorist attacks in the U.S. on September 11,
2001

                                      35



and the threat of additional attacks, the outbreak of hostilities or war or
concerns that hostilities or war might break out, including the possibility of
military action against Iraq, and national government travel advisories,
together with the resulting political instability and concerns over safety and
security aspects of traveling, have had a significant adverse impact on demand
and pricing in the travel and vacation industry and may continue to do so in
the future. Demand for cruises is also likely to be increasingly dependent on
the underlying economic strength of the countries from which cruise companies
source their passengers. Economic or political changes that reduce disposable
income or consumer confidence in the countries from which the Combined Group
will source its passengers may affect demand for vacations, including cruise
vacations, which are a discretionary purchase. Decreases in demand could lead
to price discounting which, in turn, could reduce the profitability of its
business.

The debt rating of the Combined Group may be downgraded from our current
rating, and for this or other reasons the Combined Group may not be able to
obtain financing on terms that are favorable or consistent with its
expectations.

Access to financing for the Combined Group will depend on, among other things,
the maintenance of strong long-term credit ratings. Our debt is currently rated
"A" by Standard & Poor's, "A2" by Moody's Investor Services and "A" by
FitchRatings. P&O Princess' debt is currently rated "BBB" by Standard & Poor's,
"Baa3" by Moody's and "BBB+" by FitchRatings. As a result of the DLC
transaction, the debt rating of the Combined Group may be downgraded from our
current ratings although it is expected to remain a strong investment grade
rating.

We believe our current external sources of liquidity, including committed
financings, and cash on hand, together with forecasted cash flows from future
operations, will be sufficient to fund most or all of the capital projects,
debt service requirements, dividend payments and working capital needs of the
Combined Group.

The forecasted cash flow from future operations for the Combined Group, as well
as the credit ratings of each of us and P&O Princess, may be adversely affected
by various factors, including, but not limited to, declines in customer demand,
increased competition, overcapacity, the deterioration in general economic and
business conditions, terrorist attacks, ship incidents, adverse publicity and
increases in fuel prices, as well as other factors noted under these risk
factors and the "Cautionary Note Concerning Factors That May Effect Future
Results" section below. To the extent that the Combined Group is required, or
chooses, to fund future cash requirements, including future shipbuilding
commitments, from sources other than cash flow from operations, cash on hand
and current external sources of liquidity, the Combined Group will have to
secure such financing from banks or through the offering of debt and/or equity
securities in the public or private markets.

The future operating cash flow of the Combined Group may not be sufficient to
fund future obligations, and the Combined Group may not be able to obtain
additional financing, if necessary, at a cost that meets its expectations.
Accordingly, the financial results of the Combined Group could be adversely
affected.

If P&O Princess loses eligibility for inclusion in the FTSE 100 or Carnival is
removed from the S&P 500, it may become more difficult for either company to
access the equity capital markets.

Our shares will remain listed on the NYSE and are expected to continue to be
included in the S&P 500. P&O Princess' shares will remain listed on the LSE and
are expected to remain eligible for inclusion in the FTSE series of indices and
are expected to continue to be included with full weighting in the FTSE 100. If
P&O Princess loses eligibility for inclusion in the FTSE 100 or Carnival is
removed from the S&P 500, it may become more difficult for either company to
access the equity capital markets.

                                      36



Conducting business internationally can result in increased costs.

The Combined Group will operate the businesses of Carnival and P&O Princess
internationally and plans to continue to develop its international presence.
Operating internationally exposes the Combined Group to a number of risks,
including:

..   currency fluctuations;

..   interest rate movements;

..   the imposition of trade barriers and restrictions on repatriation of
    earnings;

..   political risks;

..   risk of increases in duties, taxes and governmental royalties; and

..   changes in laws and policies affecting cruising, vacation or maritime
    businesses or the governing operations of foreign-based companies.

If the Combined Group is unable to address these risks adequately, its results
of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Accidents and other incidents at sea or adverse publicity concerning the cruise
industry or the Combined Group could affect the Combined Group's reputation and
harm its future sales and profitability.

The operation of cruise ships involves the risk of accidents, illnesses,
mechanical failures and other incidents at sea, which may bring into question
passenger safety, health, security and vacation satisfaction and thereby
adversely affect future industry performance. Incidents involving passenger
cruise ships could occur and could adversely affect future sales and
profitability. In addition, adverse publicity concerning the vacation industry
in general or the cruise industry or the Combined Group in particular could
impact demand and, consequently, have an adverse impact on the Combined Group's
profitability.

Operating, financing and tax costs are subject to many economic and political
factors that are beyond the Combined Group's control, which could result in
increases in operating and financing costs.

Some of the Combined Group's operating costs, including fuel, food, insurance
and security costs, are subject to increases because of market forces and
economic or political instability beyond the Combined Group's control. In
addition, interest rates and the Combined Group's ability to secure debt or
equity financing, including in order to finance the purchase of new ships, are
dependent on many economic and political factors. Actions by U.S. and non-U.S.
taxing jurisdictions could also cause an increase in the Combined Group's
costs. Increases in operating, financing and tax costs could adversely affect
the Combined Group's results because the Combined Group may not be able to
recover these increased costs through price increases of its cruise vacations.

Environmental legislation and regulations could affect operations and increase
operating costs.

Some environmental groups have lobbied for more stringent regulation of cruise
ships. Some groups also have generated negative publicity about the cruise
industry and its environmental impact. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
is considering new laws and rules to manage cruise ship waste.

                                      37



Alaskan authorities are currently investigating an incident that occurred in
August 2002 on board Holland America's Ryndam involving a wastewater discharge
from the ship. As a result of this incident, various Ryndam ship officers have
received grand jury subpoenas from the U.S. Attorney's office in Alaska. If the
investigation results in charges being brought, sanctions could include a
prohibition of operations in Alaska's Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve
for a period of time.

In addition, pursuant to a settlement with the U.S. government in April 2002,
we pled guilty to certain environmental violations. We were sentenced under a
plea agreement pursuant to which we paid fines in fiscal 2002 totalling $18
million to the U.S. government and other parties. We accrued for these fines in
fiscal 2001. We were also placed on probation for a term of five years. Under
the terms of the probation, any future violation of environmental laws by us
may be deemed a violation of probation. In addition, we were required as a
special term of probation to develop, implement and enforce a worldwide
environmental compliance program. We are in the process of implementing the
environmental compliance program and expect to incur approximately $10 million
in additional annual environmental compliance costs in 2003 and yearly
thereafter as a result of the program. If the DLC transaction is approved, the
terms of the environmental compliance program will become applicable to P&O
Princess, resulting in higher environmental compliance costs for P&O Princess.

The Combined Group's costs of complying with current and future environmental
laws and regulations, or liabilities arising from past or future releases of,
or exposure to, hazardous substances or to vessel discharges, could increase
the cost of compliance or otherwise materially adversely affect the Combined
Group's business, results of operations or financial condition.

New regulation of health, safety and security issues could increase operating
costs and adversely affect net income.

The Combined Group is subject to various international, national, state and
local health, safety and security laws, regulations and treaties. The
International Maritime Organization, sometimes referred to as the IMO, which
operates under the United Nations, has adopted safety standards as part of the
Safety of Life at Sea, sometimes referred to as SOLAS, which is applicable to
all of our ships. Generally SOLAS establishes vessel design, structural
features, materials, construction and life saving equipment requirements to
improve passenger safety and security.

In addition, ships that call on U.S. ports are subject to inspection by the
U.S. Coast Guard for compliance with the SOLAS Convention and by the U.S.
Public Health Service for sanitary standards. Carnival's and P&O Princess'
ships are also subject to similar inspections pursuant to the laws and
regulations of various other countries such ships visit. Finally, the U.S.
Congress recently enacted the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002
which implements a number of security measures at U.S. ports, including
measures that relate to foreign flagged vessels calling at U.S. ports.

Carnival and P&O Princess believe that health, safety and security issues will
continue to be areas of focus by relevant government authorities both in the
U.S. and abroad. Resulting legislation or regulations, or changes in existing
legislation or regulations, could impact the operations of the Combined Group
and would likely subject the Combined Group to increasing compliance costs in
the future.

Delays in ship construction and problems encountered at shipyards could reduce
the Combined Group's profitability.

The construction of cruise ships is a complex process and involves risks
similar to those encountered in other sophisticated construction projects,
including delays in completion and delivery. In addition, industrial actions
and insolvency or financial problems of the shipyards building the Combined
Group's

                                      38



ships could also delay or prevent the delivery of its ships under construction.
These events could adversely affect the Combined Group's profitability.
However, the impact from a delay in delivery could be mitigated by contractual
provisions and refund guarantees obtained by the Combined Group.

In addition, we and P&O Princess have entered into forward foreign currency
contracts to fix the cost in U.S. dollars of certain of our and P&O Princess'
foreign currency denominated shipbuilding contracts. If any of the shipyards
are unable to perform under the related contract, the foreign currency forward
contracts related to that shipyard's shipbuilding contracts would still have to
be honored. This might require us or P&O Princess to realize a loss on an
existing contract without having the ability to have an offsetting gain on its
foreign currency denominated shipbuilding contract, thus adversely affecting
the financial results of the Combined Group.

    retain shipboard crew;

..   the ability to obtain financing on terms that are favorable or consistent
    with Carnival's, P&O Princess' and the Combined Group's expectations;

..   the impact of changes in operating and financing costs, including changes
    in foreign currency and interest rates and security, fuel, food and
    insurance costs;

..   changes in the tax, environmental and other regulatory regimes under which
    each company operates; and

..   the ability of a small group of shareholders effectively to control the

                              THE SPECIAL MEETING

The Proposals

This proxy statement/prospectus is being furnished to you in connection with
the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors for use at a special
meeting to be held on April 14, 2003, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, 1285 Avenue of the Americas, New
York, NY 10019. The purpose of the special meeting is for you to consider and
vote upon proposals to approve:

..   the Offer and Implementation Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2003, by and
    between Carnival and P&O Princess;

..   amendments to our articles of incorporation and by-laws in connection with
    the transactions contemplated by the Offer and Implementation Agreement (as
    reflected in our proposed Third Amended and Restated Articles of
    Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws, other than amendments
    described in the following four items);

..   an amendment to our articles of incorporation to increase the number of
    shares of common stock that we have the authority to issue by 999,999,998
    shares;

..   an amendment to our articles of incorporation to reduce the quorum
    requirement for meetings of our board of directors from a majority, to
    one-third, of the total number of directors;

..   an amendment to our by-laws to reduce the quorum requirement for meetings
    of our shareholders from a majority, to one-third, of the total number of
    shares entitled to be cast at such meeting; and

..   an amendment to our by-laws to remove the ability of shareholders to act by
    written consent.

This proxy statement/prospectus and the enclosed form of proxy are first being
mailed to you on or about March 17, 2003.

Record Date and Voting

The holders of record of Carnival common stock as of the close of business on
the record date, which was March 11, 2003, are entitled to receive notice of,
and to vote at, the special meeting. On the record date, there were 586,972,729
shares of Carnival common stock outstanding.

The holders of a majority of the shares of Carnival common stock outstanding on
March 11, 2003, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for
purposes of the special meeting. A quorum is necessary to hold the special
meeting.

You may vote your shares of Carnival common stock in any of two ways:

..   by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card by
    mail; or

..   by appearing and voting in person by ballot at the special meeting.

Required Vote

Each share of Carnival common stock which is outstanding on the record date
entitles its holder to one vote at the special meeting. Completion of the DLC
transaction requires the adoption of the first two proposals at the special
meeting by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of Carnival common stock. Proposals 3, 4, 5 and 6 will not be given
effect if the proposals relating to the DLC transaction are not approved.

Because the vote is based on the number of shares of Carnival common stock
outstanding rather than on the number of votes cast, failure to vote your
shares is effectively a vote against the DLC transaction and the other
amendments to our articles of incorporation. In addition, although treated as
shares that are present and entitled to vote at the special meeting for
purposes of determining whether a quorum exists, abstentions and "broker
non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against adoption of the proposals.

Proxies; Revocation

If you vote your shares of Carnival common stock by signing a proxy, your
shares will be voted at the special meeting as you indicate on your proxy card.
If no instructions are indicated on your signed proxy card, your shares of
Carnival common stock will be voted "FOR" the adoption of the proposals.

                                      42



You may revoke your proxy at any time before the proxy is voted at the special
meeting. A proxy may be revoked prior to the vote at the special meeting in any
of three ways:

..   by submitting a written revocation dated after the date of the proxy that
    is being revoked to the Secretary of Carnival at 3655 N.W. 87th Avenue,
    Miami, Florida 33178-2428;

..   by submitting a later--dated proxy relating to the same shares to the
    Secretary of Carnival by mail; or

..   by appearing and voting in person by ballot at the special meeting.

Attendance at the special meeting will not, in itself, constitute revocation of
a previously granted proxy. If you do not hold your shares of Carnival common
stock in your own name, you may revoke or change a previously given proxy by
following the instructions provided by the bank, broker or other party that is
the registered owner of the shares.

We will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and
distributing these proxy materials and soliciting votes for the meeting. We
will also reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and
fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy
materials to shareholders.

Confidential Voting

It is our policy that all proxies, ballots and tabulations that identify the
vote of individual shareholders are kept confidential. Your vote will not be
disclosed within Carnival or to third parties, except as necessary to meet
legal requirements, allow for tabulation and certification of votes, facilitate
a successful proxy solicitation by our board of directors or where shareholders
submit comments with their proxy.

Other Matters

Our board of directors is not aware of any business to be acted upon at the
special meeting other than the proposals relating to the DLC transaction and
the other amendments to our articles of incorporation and by-laws. If other
matters are duly brought before the special meeting, or any adjournments or
postponements of the special meeting, the persons appointed as proxies will
have discretion to vote or act on these matters according to their best
judgment.

                                      43



                              THE DLC TRANSACTION

Background to the DLC Transaction

In the past, both P&O Princess and Carnival have sought to identify, explore
and, where appropriate, implement strategies to develop and broaden their
cruise product offerings. The senior management of each company has regularly
reviewed with its board of directors the strategic objectives of its company
and the possible means of achieving those objectives. Both management teams
have regularly updated their boards on the changing structure and dynamics of
the cruise industry and the overall vacation market.

In the summer of 2001, Mr. Peter Ratcliffe, Chief Executive Officer of P&O
Princess, met with Mr. Richard Fain, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
Royal Caribbean. During these meetings, the possibility of a business
combination between P&O Princess and Royal Caribbean was discussed. In
subsequent meetings, senior executives of the two companies discussed the
changes and developments in their respective companies, and in the cruise
industry generally, particularly in light of the events of September 11, 2001
and their effect on the global vacation market, and continued to explore a
business combination of the two companies.

On September 24, 2001, during the early stages of the discussions between P&O
Princess and Royal Caribbean, Mr. Howard Frank, Vice Chairman and Chief
Operating Officer of Carnival, made a telephone call to Mr. Ratcliffe in which
he inquired whether P&O Princess would be interested in pursuing discussions
towards a business combination with Carnival. Given that P&O Princess' share
price was at or near its all time low at the time of the call, P&O Princess did
not follow up on this call.

On November 20, 2001, P&O Princess and Royal Caribbean announced that they had
entered into agreements to implement a dual listed company transaction. Those
agreements, which were not publicly available at that time, included
non-solicitation provisions restricting P&O Princess and Royal Caribbean from
entering into discussions with third parties except in specified circumstances
involving a third party's offer determined by the relevant board to be a
Superior Proposal as explained below. The dual listed company transaction
provided for a combination of equals in which P&O Princess shareholders would
have held approximately 50.7% of the equity in a dual listed company structure
that was substantially similar to the DLC transaction.

On December 13, 2001, following the announcement of the Royal Caribbean
transaction, Carnival submitted a detailed private proposal to the P&O Princess
board regarding an offer to acquire P&O Princess. The offer was for 200 pence
in cash and 0.1361 Carnival shares per P&O Princess share. Based on the prior
business day's closing price for Carnival shares of $26.55 per share and an
exchange rate of $1.00=(Pounds)0.692, the Carnival shares were valued at 250
pence, valuing the offer at 450 pence per P&O Princess share. In preparation
for its decision to launch a counterbid for P&O Princess, Carnival had
performed financial analyses to identify the maximum amount it would be willing
to pay to acquire P&O Princess. These analyses were based on public information
and Carnival's own internal estimates, and included discounted cash flow
analyses and assessments of the financial effects of the transaction. However,
this offer and each of Carnival's subsequent offers were ultimately based on an
assessment of what price would be acceptable to the P&O Princess board and the
P&O Princess shareholders.

Carnival also proposed as part of this proposal the possibility of effecting a
combination via alternative structures, including a dual listed company
structure. The P&O Princess board carefully considered Carnival's proposal with
Sullivan & Cromwell LLP and Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, its legal advisors,
and Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, its financial advisor, and, at its meeting
on December 15, 2001, the P&O Princess board determined that Carnival's
proposal was not more favorable from a financial point of view to P&O Princess'
shareholders than the transaction with Royal Caribbean and was not reasonably
likely to be consummated (that is, it was not a "Superior Proposal" as defined
under P&O Princess' agreement with Royal Caribbean). In particular, the P&O
Princess board believed

                                      44



that Carnival's proposal would result in P&O Princess shareholders receiving
shares that would not be included in the FTSE indices, and consequently a
significant portion of P&O Princess shareholders, particularly UK institutional
shareholders, would be unable or unwilling to hold such shares. As a result of
this, the board believed that the proposed Carnival transaction would deprive
such P&O Princess shareholders of the ability to retain an investment in the
cruise industry and to share in the potential benefits of combining with
Carnival, making it less financially favorable than the Royal Caribbean
transaction in which all P&O Princess shareholders were expected to be able to
share in the upside potential expected to be generated by that transaction.
Further, the board believed that Carnival's proposal did not represent an
irrevocable commitment to make and maintain an offer because it was subject to
a number of pre-conditions, including financing and regulatory approvals. The
board also believed that Carnival's proposal faced greater regulatory risk in
the U.S. and Europe.
On December 16, 2001, P&O Princess announced that its board had concluded that
the Royal Caribbean transaction was the more attractive alternative for P&O
Princess shareholders, because it believed that Carnival's pre-conditional cash
and share proposal was less favorable financially to P&O Princess shareholders
and would face greater execution risk than the Royal Caribbean transaction. In
response to P&O Princess' rejection of its proposal, Carnival publicly
announced a pre-conditional offer for all of the issued share capital of P&O
Princess on the same terms as its December 13 proposal.

On December 19, 2001, P&O Princess announced that, in light of Carnival's offer
and in order to give its shareholders time to consider fully their
alternatives, it would hold an extraordinary general meeting to vote on the
Royal Caribbean transaction on February 14, 2002.

Carnival announced on December 24, 2001 that it had made the necessary U.S.
antitrust filings in relation to its offer for P&O Princess.

On December 27, 2001, P&O Princess mailed its circular to its shareholders with
respect to the Royal Caribbean transaction and made its implementation
agreement and Joint Venture Agreement with Royal Caribbean publicly available,
including the non-solicitation provisions described above.

On January 6, 2002, Carnival sent a letter to the P&O Princess board requesting
a meeting with P&O Princess to discuss Carnival's offer and seeking clarity on
a number of issues in connection with the Royal Caribbean transaction,
including further details regarding termination of the Joint Venture Agreement.
P&O Princess responded by letter on January 8, 2002. In its response, P&O
Princess referred Carnival to the publicly available agreements between P&O
Princess and Royal Caribbean and informed Carnival that those agreements
prevented P&O Princess from discussing any acquisition proposal with Carnival
that was not a Superior Proposal and that its board continued to believe that
Carnival's proposal was neither financially superior to the Royal Caribbean
transaction nor deliverable. Consequently, P&O Princess declined Carnival's
request for a meeting.

Mr. Ratcliffe publicly clarified on January 10, 2002 that P&O Princess could
unilaterally terminate the Joint Venture Agreement with Royal Caribbean in
January 2003 at no cost as long as no change of control of P&O Princess had
been completed prior to the termination date. On January 10, 2002, Carnival
sent another letter to the P&O Princess board asking it for further
clarification of this statement.

On January 17, 2002, Carnival indicated in a letter to P&O Princess that
Carnival would, subject to certain conditions, be willing to increase its
pre-conditional offer to a 250 pence in cash and 0.1380 Carnival shares for
each P&O Princess share. Based on the prior business day's closing price for
Carnival shares of $26.06 per share and an exchange rate of
$1.00=(Pounds)0.695, the Carnival shares were valued at 250 pence, valuing the
offer at 500 pence per P&O Princess share. After reviewing Carnival's new
proposal in detail with its advisors, the P&O Princess board reaffirmed its
view that Carnival's revised proposal was not a Superior Proposal and that,
accordingly, P&O Princess continued to be unable to meet with Carnival to
discuss its proposal without breaching its contractual obligations to Royal
Caribbean.

                                      45



On January 30, 2002, Carnival announced a revised pre-conditional offer of
0.2684 Carnival shares for each P&O Princess share, valuing each P&O Princess
share at 515 pence (based on the prior business day's closing price for
Carnival shares of $27.05 per share and an exchange rate of
$1.00=(Pounds)0.709). The revised offer included a partial cash alternative of
250 pence for each P&O Princess share, pre-conditional on financing being
arranged on terms satisfactory to Carnival by no later than the date of posting
of the offer document.

On January 31, 2002, Carnival wrote to P&O Princess shareholders urging them to
vote to adjourn the extraordinary general meeting scheduled for February 14,
2002. Carnival suggested this adjournment in order to postpone the vote on the
Royal Caribbean transaction until the various antitrust authorities could rule
on both transactions.

The P&O Princess board carefully reviewed Carnival's revised offer with its
legal and financial advisers and, at its meeting on February 3, 2002,
determined that Carnival's revised offer, as revised, was not a Superior
Proposal on both value and deliverability grounds. P&O Princess publicly
announced its board's conclusions on February 4, 2002 and, under its
contractual obligations to Royal Caribbean, remained unable to meet with
Carnival. Carnival responded by restating its commitment to proceed with its
revised offer and to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals in the U.S. and
Europe.

On February 7, 2002, Carnival announced the terms of a further increased offer
of 0.3004 Carnival shares for each P&O Princess share, valuing each P&O
Princess share at 550 pence (based on the prior business day's closing price
for Carnival shares of $25.86 per share and an exchange rate of
$1.00=(Pounds)0.708), and again raised the possibility of alternative
structures, including a dual listed company structure. Carnival's increased
offer was pre-conditional only on the receipt of regulatory approval. The
increased offer included a partial cash alternative of 250 pence for each P&O
Princess share, pre-conditional on the availability of financing on terms
satisfactory to Carnival.

The P&O Princess board carefully reviewed the increased offer with its legal
and financial advisers and, at its meeting on February 8, 2002, the P&O
Princess board determined that it was not a Superior Proposal. On February 8,
2002, P&O Princess announced that it continued to recommend that its
shareholders approve the dual listed company transaction with Royal Caribbean.
While the P&O Princess board acknowledged the improvement of Carnival's
increased offer in terms of value, it noted that it remained concerned about
the structure and deliverability of the Carnival transaction.

P&O Princess convened its extraordinary general meeting with respect to the
Royal Caribbean transaction on February 14, 2002. Before resolutions to approve
the Royal Caribbean transaction were voted upon, P&O Princess shareholders
proposed and passed a resolution to adjourn the meeting. The Chairman of P&O
Princess then announced that the meeting would be adjourned for an indefinite
period.

On February 27, 2002, Carnival announced that it had formally notified its
proposed combination with P&O Princess to the European Commission for review
under the EC Merger Regulation. The European Commission cleared the proposed
combination on July 24, 2002.

On September 24, 2002, prior to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission closing its
investigation into both transactions, the P&O Princess board met to consider
the relative merits of the Royal Caribbean transaction and Carnival's proposal
in light of currently available information. At that meeting, representatives
of Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, P&O Princess' financial advisor, advised the
board that it believed that, based on the valuation and share price analyses
discussed with the board at that meeting, Carnival's prior proposal to enter
into a dual listed company transaction with P&O Princess on the same financial
terms as Carnival's latest share exchange proposal was more favorable to P&O
Princess' shareholders from a financial point of view than the transaction with
Royal Caribbean. The advice of P&O Princess' financial advisor, as extracted
from the prospectus being provided to P&O Princess shareholders in connection
with the DLC transaction and the Partial Share Offer, is set forth on Annex D.

                                      46



On October 4, 2002, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission voted not to oppose
Carnival's acquisition of P&O Princess or the Royal Caribbean transaction. As a
result, the only pre-condition to Carnival's increased offer was satisfied.

Following the Federal Trade Commission announcement, P&O Princess re-examined
Carnival's increased offer, including Carnival's prior proposal to enter into a
dual listed company transaction with P&O Princess as an alternative to the
share exchange offer. After consulting with its financial and legal advisers
and considering the analyses discussed with its financial advisor on September
24, 2002 at its meeting on October 4, 2002 the P&O Princess board determined
that Carnival's dual listed company proposal was more favorable from a
financial point of view to P&O Princess' shareholders than the transaction with
Royal Caribbean and was reasonably likely to be consummated given that all
regulatory clearances had been obtained. On October 4, 2002, P&O Princess
announced that its board had determined Carnival's dual listed company proposal
to be a Superior Proposal and that it was willing and able under its agreement
with Royal Caribbean to enter into talks with Carnival to discuss this proposal.

On October 11, 2002, executives of Carnival and P&O Princess met together with
their respective advisers to discuss a combination of their companies through a
dual listed company structure. Discussions also focused on a partial share
offer to be launched in conjunction with seeking shareholder approval for the
dual listed company structure that would permit P&O Princess shareholders who
wished to exchange some of their P&O Princess shares for Carnival shares to do
so. On the same date, Carnival and P&O Princess entered into a confidentiality
agreement that contemplated the exchange of confidential information between
them.

Executives of Carnival and P&O Princess and their respective advisers continued
to meet throughout the weeks of October 14, and October 21, 2002. During this
time, the boards of directors of Carnival and P&O Princess each held meetings,
at which their respective management teams and advisers provided updates on the
discussions to date and on the strategic implications and possible benefits and
risks of the dual listed company transaction involving the two companies.

On October 24, 2002, Carnival issued a press release announcing its
pre-conditional offer to enter into the DLC transaction based on the form of
agreements and instruments that it had negotiated with P&O Princess. In order
for P&O Princess to be able to accept this offer, its board had to withdraw its
recommendation of the Royal Caribbean transaction within 48 hours of Carnival's
announcement and not subsequently reinstate such recommendation, the Royal
Caribbean transaction had to be voted down by P&O Princess shareholders or
otherwise abandoned, the Joint Venture Agreement had to terminate at no cost
(other than the break fee under its implementation agreement with Royal
Caribbean), the P&O Princess board of directors had to approve and recommend
the DLC transaction by January 10, 2003, and P&O Princess had to enter into the
negotiated form of the offer and implementation agreement by January 10, 2003.
The DLC proposal included the Partial Share Offer for up to, in aggregate, a
maximum of 20% of the issued share capital of P&O Princess. The making of the
Partial Share Offer, including the establishment of the 20% limit, was the
subject of negotiation between the parties, and was designed to allow those P&O
Princess shareholders who would prefer to participate in the Combined Group
through holding Carnival shares an opportunity to do so, while at the same time
maintaining the liquidity and market value of the P&O Princess shares.

On October 25, 2002, the P&O Princess board held a meeting to consider the
announcement of the DLC proposal and decided to withdraw its recommendation of
the Royal Caribbean dual listed company transaction. Subsequent to that
meeting, P&O Princess announced that its board welcomed Carnival's announcement
of its dual listed company proposal and had determined that the DLC proposal
would be financially superior for P&O Princess shareholders compared with the
Royal Caribbean dual listed company transaction. It also announced that its
board had withdrawn its recommendation of the Royal Caribbean dual listed
company transaction.

                                      47



P&O Princess also entered into an agreement with Royal Caribbean on October 25,
2002 which terminated the implementation agreement with Royal Caribbean
immediately, terminated the Joint Venture Agreement on January 1, 2003 as long
as no change of control of P&O Princess occurred prior to this date, and
provided mutual releases from liabilities arising under the two agreements.
Pursuant to the agreement, P&O Princess paid Royal Caribbean $62.5 million as a
break fee under its implementation agreement with Royal Caribbean. The  P&O
Princess  board  announced  that  it would
formally consider satisfaction of the remaining pre-conditions to the DLC
proposal, including entry into an offer and implementation agreement with
Carnival, in early January 2003.

On October 29, 2002, Lord Sterling of Plaistow, Chairman of P&O Princess, sent
a letter to P&O Princess shareholders informing them of the announcement of the
DLC proposal, the withdrawal of the P&O Princess board's recommendation of the
Royal Caribbean transaction and the subsequent arrangements with Royal
Caribbean for, among other things, the termination of existing agreements
between them. Lord Sterling also informed P&O Princess shareholders that he no
longer intended to reconvene the adjourned extraordinary general meeting
convened on February 14, 2002 to approve the dual listed company combination
with Royal Caribbean.

On January 2, 2003, P&O Princess announced that the Joint Venture Agreement had
been terminated, and Carnival issued a press release acknowledging and
welcoming the termination of the Joint Venture Agreement.

On January 7, 2003, the P&O Princess board approved the DLC transaction and
agreed to recommend to the P&O Princess shareholders that they vote in favor of
the resolution to implement the DLC structure. Later that day, the senior
executive management teams of P&O Princess and Carnival and their respective
advisors finalized the agreements and documentation to implement the DLC
structure. The advice of P&O Princess' financial advisor considered by the P&O
Princess board, as extracted from the prospectus being provided to P&O Princess
shareholders in connection with the DLC transaction and the Partial Share
Offer, is set forth on Annex D. In the early morning of January 8, 2003,
Carnival and P&O Princess signed the Offer and Implementation Agreement. P&O
Princess then issued a press release announcing that its board had agreed and
recommended the DLC transaction and that P&O Princess had signed the Offer and
Implementation Agreement. Carnival issued a press release announcing the
execution of the Offer and Implementation Agreement, acknowledging P&O
Princess' announcement of its board's recommendation and setting forth its
offer to enter into the DLC transaction based on the Offer and Implementation
Agreement and related agreements and instruments and the terms of the Partial
Share Offer.

Reasons for the DLC Transaction

We and P&O Princess have agreed to enter into the DLC transaction in order to
create the Combined Group. We and P&O Princess believe the principal benefits
of the creation of the Combined Group by means of the DLC structure are as set
forth below and that the DLC structure is the optimal structure to seek to
achieve all of these benefits:

Complementary well-known brands operating globally

The Combined Group will be the largest cruise vacation group in the world,
based on revenues, passengers carried and available capacity. It will have a
wide portfolio of complementary brands, both by geography and product offering,
and will include some of the best known cruise brands globally. The combination
will allow the Combined Group to offer a wider range of vacation choices for
its passengers. In addition, the combination is expected to enhance the
Combined Group's ability to attract more passengers from land-based vacations,
based on its ability to provide vacations in most of the largest vacation
markets in the world, and its strategy of entering new and developing markets
by building on its brand strength, global presence and ability to strategically
deploy its brands and diversified fleet.

                                      48



The Combined Group's brands will include Carnival Cruise Lines, Princess
Cruises, Holland America Line, P&O Cruises, Costa Cruises, Cunard Line,
Seabourn Cruise Line, Windstar Cruises, AIDA, A'ROSA, Swan Hellenic, Ocean
Village and P&O Cruises (Australia). The Combined Group will serve all of the
key cruising destinations outside the Far East, including the Caribbean,
Alaska, Australia, Europe, New England, Canada, Bahamas, Bermuda, the Hawaiian
islands, the Mediterranean, the Mexican Riviera, the Panama Canal, South
America and other exotic destinations worldwide.

Benefits of sharing best practices and generating cost savings

The Combined Group will be managed as if the two companies were a single
economic enterprise by a single senior executive management team and identical
boards of directors.

We and P&O Princess expect that the Combined Group will generate significant
cost savings, estimated to be at least $100 million on an annualized basis,
commencing in the first full fiscal year following completion of the DLC
transaction. We and P&O Princess expect that these cost savings will be
generated principally through the dissemination of best practices between the
companies, economies of scale and the rationalization of certain shoreside
operations. One-time cash costs of achieving these cost savings are expected to
be approximately $30 million.

Financial flexibility and access to capital markets

The Combined Group will have substantial financial flexibility, with strong
operating cash flow, low leverage and a strong balance sheet, and expects to
maintain a strong investment grade credit rating.

The Combined Group is also expected to have greater access to capital markets.
Carnival's shares will remain listed on the NYSE and are expected to continue
to be included in the S&P 500. P&O Princess' shares will remain listed on the
LSE and are expected to remain eligible for inclusion in the FTSE series of
indices and are expected to continue to be included with full weighting in the
FTSE 100.

High quality combined fleet to enhance growth within the cruise industry

Upon completion of the DLC transaction, the Combined Group expects to operate a
fleet of 65 cruise ships with an aggregate capacity of 99,982 lower berths.
Carnival and P&O Princess together have an additional 18 new cruise ships on
order, with an aggregate capacity of 42,260 lower berths, scheduled for
delivery in the next three and a half years. Carnival and P&O Princess also
expect that the Combined Group will have one of the youngest and most modern
fleets in the cruise industry, with an average vessel age (weighted by lower
berths) of 7.5 years as of January 31, 2003.

The Combined Group expects to deploy its diversified fleet strategically in
order to increase its global reach and enter new and developing markets. This
strategic deployment is expected to allow the Combined Group to appeal to the
largest target audience by providing brands, products and itineraries with the
widest appeal in a particular geographic region.

The DLC structure allows continued participation in the global cruise industry
for P&O Princess shareholders who wish to continue to hold shares in a
UK-listed company

Following the implementation of the DLC structure, P&O Princess is expected to
remain included in the FSTE 100. This will allow P&O Princess shareholders who
are required, or wish, to hold shares in a UK-listed company included in the
FTSE indices to continue to do so, and, as a result, to continue to participate
as a shareholder in the global cruise industry through P&O Princess. A share
acquisition or exchange offer or other more common means of combining the
businesses of Carnival and P&O Princess in which all P&O Princess shareholders
would receive Carnival shares, which are not eligible for inclusion in the FTSE
series of indices, and/or a partial cash alternative would not have afforded
all P&O Princess shareholders this opportunity. Additionally, the Partial Share
Offer for up to 20% of P&O Princess' outstanding shares allows those P&O
Princess shareholders who would prefer to participate in the Combined Group by
holding shares in a U.S. listed company the opportunity to do so for at least
some of their holdings.

                                      49



Other Considerations of Carnival and P&O Princess in respect of the DLC
Transaction

In addition to the factors described above that supported our and P&O Princess'
decisions to approve the Offer and Implementation Agreement and to recommend
that shareholders vote to approve the DLC transaction, our board and the P&O
Princess board each also considered potential factors that weighed against
proceeding with the transaction, in general, and against using a DLC structure,
in particular. These included:

..   the risk that the benefits and synergies anticipated from the DLC
    transaction might not be achieved to the extent or within the time period
    expected;

..   risks associated with the structure of the DLC transaction that are not
    associated with the more common ways of combining operations of two
    companies;

..   the risk that the London-listed shares of P&O Princess may trade at a
    discount to the New York-listed shares of Carnival;

..   the possibility that each company's shareholders might achieve more value
    over the long-term from continued operation of such company as an
    independent company or by combining with a different company;

..   risks concerning the uncertainty of the DLC structure under the Internal
    Revenue Code; and

..   the fact that a small group of shareholders would collectively own
    approximately 35% of the total combined voting power of the Combined Group
    and may be able to effectively control the outcome of shareholder voting.

A number of these factors are described in more detail under the caption "Risk
Factors--Risks relating to the DLC transaction".

Our board and the P&O Princess board did not assign particular weight or
ranking to any of the factors that they considered. Also, in making their
determination, individual directors may have assigned a different level of
importance to each factor.

Recommendation of Carnival and P&O Princess Boards of Directors

Our board and P&O Princess' board each weighed both the potential advantages of
the DLC transaction and the potential factors against the DLC transaction and
determined that the potential advantages of the DLC transaction outweighed the
potential factors against the DLC transaction. Consequently, it was the
judgment of our board and the P&O Princess board that the DLC transaction is in
the best interests of Carnival and its shareholders and P&O Princess and its
shareholders. Both our board and the P&O Princess board recommend that our
respective shareholders vote in favor of the DLC transaction.

The DLC Structure

After giving effect to the DLC transaction, we and P&O Princess each will
remain as separate listed companies, although we and P&O Princess will be
operated as if we were a single economic enterprise. Our board and the P&O
Princess board will be identical and the Combined Group will be managed by a
single senior executive management team. The two companies will pursue a common
set of business objectives established by the identical boards and single
management team, who will evaluate these strategies and other operational
decisions from the perspective of all the shareholders. Some key features of
the DLC structure are listed below.

..   Our shares and, for the foreseeable future, P&O Princess ADSs will continue
    to be listed on the NYSE and P&O Princess shares will continue to have
    their primary listing on the LSE.

..   The implementation of the DLC structure will not involve any transfer of
    assets between us and P&O Princess. Following completion of the DLC
    transaction, management of the Combined Group will determine whether assets
    will be owned by Carnival or P&O Princess as is most efficient and
    appropriate under the then prevailing circumstances. The Combined Group
    will comprise all of the

                                      50



   assets held by P&O Princess and Carnival immediately prior to the
   implementation of the DLC transaction. No transfer of assets between the two
   companies will affect the equalization ratio or the relative economic
   interests of Carnival shareholders and P&O Princess shareholders in the
   Combined Group.

..   Carnival shareholders will continue to hold their Carnival shares and P&O
    Princess shareholders will continue to hold their P&O Princess shares,
    unless P&O Princess shareholders elect to exchange their P&O Princess
    shares (up to a maximum of 20% of the outstanding shares of P&O Princess)
    for Carnival shares in the Partial Share Offer. If the full 20% is tendered
    in the Partial Share Offer, approximately 79% of the equity of the Combined
    Group will be held through Carnival shares and the balance will be held
    through P&O Princess shares.

..   The economic and voting interests represented by an individual share in
    each company will be equalized based on a ratio, which we refer to in this
    proxy statement/prospectus as the "equalization ratio." The equalization
    ratio will initially be 0.3004 Carnival shares for each P&O Princess share.
    Upon completion of the DLC transaction, P&O Princess will reorganize and
    consolidate its share capital so that the equalization ratio will be one
    Carnival share for each P&O Princess share.

..   The equalization ratio is subject to adjustment in a limited number of
    circumstances, as described in the section of this proxy
    statement/prospectus entitled "Equalization and Governance
    Agreement--Equalization Ratio".

..   As a result of the 1:1 equalization ratio, one Carnival share will have the
    same rights to distributions of income and capital and voting rights as one
    P&O Princess share. Carnival and P&O Princess shareholders initially will
    receive equal quarterly dividends. If the equalization ratio is adjusted to
    a value other than 1:1, Carnival and P&O Princess shares will no longer
    have equivalent rights as described in the section of this proxy
    statement/prospectus entitled "Equalization and Governance
    Agreement--Equalization Ratio".

..   On most matters that affect all shareholders of the Combined Group,
    Carnival and P&O Princess shareholders will vote together as a single body.
    These matters are called joint electorate actions.

..   On specified matters where the interests of Carnival shareholders may
    differ from the interests of P&O Princess shareholders, each shareholder
    body will vote separately as a class. These matters are called class rights
    actions and include, among others:


   .   transactions primarily designed to amend or unwind the DLC structure;


   .   adjustments to the equalization ratio not in accordance with the
       Equalization and Governance Agreement; and


   .   amendments to tax related provisions in Carnival's articles of
       incorporation.


   No class rights action generally may be implemented unless approved by both
   shareholder bodies, which means that each shareholder body generally has a
   veto with respect to class rights actions.

..   We and P&O Princess each will continue to have separate boards of
    directors, but the boards and senior executive management of both companies
    will be identical. In addition to their normal fiduciary duties to the
    company and obligation to have regard to the interests of its shareholders,
    the directors of each company will be entitled to have regard to the
    interests of the other company and its shareholders.

..   We and P&O Princess will execute cross-guarantees regarding all debts
    incurred after implementation of the DLC structure owed by either company
    as if we and P&O Princess were a single economic enterprise.

..   Takeover restrictions will be in place so that, generally, no person will
    be able to obtain control over the Combined Group without making an offer
    to the shareholders of both companies on equivalent terms.

                                      51



..   Neither Carnival nor P&O Princess will be able to issue any shares carrying
    voting rights to the other, except on a pre-emptive basis to all
    shareholders, for two years following the date on which the DLC structure
    is implemented. After expiration of the initial two-year period, for each
    of the subsequent three years neither Carnival nor P&O Princess may issue
    shares carrying voting rights to the other company or any of that company's
    subsidiaries, except on a pre-emptive basis to all shareholders, in excess
    of 5% per year of the issued or outstanding shares (calculated as at the
    first day in such annual period). Thereafter, there will be no restriction
    on the issuance of shares carrying voting rights to the other company or
    any of that company's subsidiaries. These restrictions may be varied by a
    class rights action.

..   Shares held by one company in the other will not have voting rights unless
    such company holds 90% or more of the outstanding shares in the other.

Special Voting Entities; Special Voting Shares

As a mechanism to effect the new voting arrangements resulting from the DLC
structure, two new special voting entities will be formed. The Carnival Special
Voting Entity (which will hold the Carnival special voting share to be voted at
Carnival shareholders meetings, in order to give effect to the outcome of votes
at a parallel P&O Princess shareholders meeting for purposes of joint
electorate actions and class rights actions) will be a company whose shares
will be held legally and beneficially owned by The Law Debenture Trust
Corporation p.l.c., an independent trustee company incorporated in England and
Wales. The P&O Princess Special Voting Trust (the trustee of which will hold
the P&O Princess special voting share to be voted at P&O Princess shareholders
meetings, in order to give effect to the outcome of votes at a parallel
Carnival shareholders meeting for purposes of joint electorate actions and
class rights actions) will be a trust established under the laws of the Cayman
Islands.

The Carnival Special Voting Entity will be present by a corporate
representative or by proxy at any Carnival shareholder meeting at which a
resolution relating to a joint electorate action and/or class rights action is
to be considered. The trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will be
present by a representative or by proxy at any P&O Princess shareholder meeting
at which a resolution relating to a joint electorate action and/or a class
rights action is to be considered.

For joint electorate actions, the Carnival special voting share will represent
the number of votes cast at the parallel meeting of P&O Princess shareholders
(as adjusted by the equalization ratio and rounded up to the nearest whole
percentage) and the P&O Princess special voting share will represent the number
of votes cast at the parallel meeting of Carnival shareholders (as adjusted by
the equalization ratio).

For class rights actions, the Carnival Special Voting Entity and the trustee of
the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust, as holders of the special voting shares
will only vote if the proposed action has not been approved at the parallel
meeting of the  shareholders  of the  other  company.  In that event, the
special
voting shares will represent that number of votes equal to the largest whole
percentage that is less than the percentage of the number of votes (or, in the
case of a special resolution of P&O Princess shareholders, such percentage less
one vote) necessary to defeat the resolution at the meeting of shareholders of
the other company, if the total number of votes capable of being cast by all
outstanding shares (and any other shares able to vote) were cast in favour of
the resolution. In most cases, this will be 49% (for a majority vote, 49% is
the largest whole percentage that is less than the 50% needed to defeat the
resolution). The special voting shares will not represent any votes on matters
of a procedural or technical nature. The special voting shares will have the
right to return at par on liquidation ranking behind the common shares. See
"Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Special Voting Shares."

The SVE Special Voting Deed, which Carnival, P&O Princess, the Carnival Special
Voting Entity, the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust and the
legal and beneficial owner of the Carnival Special Voting Entity will enter
into as part of the DLC transaction, which is attached to this proxy

                                      52



statement/prospectus as Annex A-3, will regulate the manner in which the
Carnival Special Voting Entity and the trustee of the P&O Princess Special
Voting Trust will exercise the votes attaching to the Carnival special voting
share and the P&O Princess special voting share.

Other than in respect of a transfer of the Carnival special voting share
described below, the Carnival Special Voting Entity will be prohibited from
dealing with the Carnival special voting share, or with any interest in or
right attaching to the Carnival special voting share, unless such dealing has
been approved by each of the Carnival board and P&O Princess board in its sole
and absolute discretion and the transferee has agreed to be bound by the SVE
Special Voting Deed. The trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will
be prohibited from dealing with the P&O Princess special voting share, except
to the extent expressly permitted in its trust agreements agreed with Carnival.
The Carnival board and P&O Princess board can require the Carnival Special
Voting Entity and the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust to
transfer the special voting shares to a new person nominated by the boards if
the Equalization and Governance Agreement or the SVE Special Voting Deed
terminates. In addition, Carnival can require the trustee of the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust to resign or, failing such resignation, remove the trustee
of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust.

It has been agreed that P&O Princess will pay the Carnival Special Voting
Entity fees and expenses incurred in the performance of its obligations under
the DLC structure and that Carnival will pay the trustee of the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust fees and expenses incurred in the performance of its
obligations under the DLC structure.

Trust Shares of Beneficial Interest

Generally

On completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival will issue the Carnival special
voting share to the Carnival Special Voting Entity and the P&O Princess special
voting share will be transferred to the trustee of the P&O Princess Special
Voting Trust. Trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special
Voting Trust will be transferred to Carnival. Immediately following this
transfer, Carnival will distribute the trust shares of beneficial interest by
way of dividend to Carnival shareholders of record at the close of business on
April 17, 2003. Separate certificates will not be issued to represent these
trust shares of beneficial interest; instead, the trust shares of beneficial
interest will be paired with and evidenced by certificates representing
Carnival shares pursuant to a pairing agreement to be entered into between
Carnival and the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust at closing of
the DLC transaction.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival shares will trade
together with trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special
Voting Trust. The trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust will entitle Carnival shareholders to receive any
distributions made by the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust.  As  the  sole
purpose  of  the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust
relates to the holding of the P&O Princess special voting share, it is not
expected to make any distributions. See "The DLC Transaction--Changes in Rights
of Carnival Shareholders--Special Voting Shares" for a discussion of the rights
of the special voting shares.

The P&O Princess special voting share will be voted based upon the outcome of
voting at the relevant parallel meeting of Carnival shareholders, based on the
number of votes cast by Carnival shareholders voting their Carnival shares.

                                      53



Pairing Agreement

At the closing of the DLC transaction, we will enter into a pairing agreement
with the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust and a transfer agent.
The pairing agreement is attached as Annex B to this proxy
statement/prospectus. Pursuant to the pairing agreement:

..  trust shares and Carnival shares will not be transferable unless the
   transferee acquires the same number of trust shares and Carnival shares;

..  Carnival and the trustee of P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will not agree
   to any transfer of Carnival shares without the corresponding trust shares;

..  trust shares and Carnival shares will not be represented by separate
   certificates, but by one certificate of Carnival common stock, which will
   represent an equal number of Carnival shares and trust shares; and

..  upon each issuance of additional Carnival shares, including pursuant to the
   exercise of any existing option or convertible security, the P&O Princess
   Special Voting Trust will issue an equal number of additional trust shares.

After the effective date of the pairing agreement:

..  if Carnival declares or pays any distribution consisting in whole or in part
   of Carnival shares, or subdivides or combines Carnival shares, then the P&O
   Princess Special Voting Trust will effect corresponding adjustments to
   maintain the pairing relationship of one Carnival share to each trust share;

..  if Carnival otherwise reclassifies the Carnival shares, then the P&O
   Princess Special Voting Trust will effect such transactions as are necessary
   to maintain the pairing relationship of the securities into which one
   Carnival share was so reclassified to each trust share; and

..  if Carnival cancels or retires any Carnival shares, the trustee of the P&O
   Princess Trust will cancel or retire the corresponding trust shares.

Voting Trust Deed

The voting trust deed of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will reflect the
terms of the pairing agreement. The voting trust deed is attached as Annex C to
this proxy statement/prospectus. The trust property will consist of the P&O
Princess special voting share, all payments or collections in respect of the
P&O Princess special voting share and all other property from time to time
deposited in the trust. The voting trust deed will provide that at every
meeting of P&O Princess shareholders at which a resolution relating to a joint
electorate action or a class rights action is to be considered, the trustee of
the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will be present by corporate
representative or by proxy. The trustee will not have any discretion as to how
the P&O Princess special voting share is to be voted at any P&O Princess
shareholders meeting. The trustee will cause the trust to vote the P&O Princess
special voting share at any P&O Princess shareholders meeting in accordance
with the requirements of the P&O Princess articles, the SVE  Special  Voting
Deed  and  the  DLC  equalization  principles  (in effect, to reflect the
outcome of votes at parallel Carnival shareholders meetings for purposes of
joint electorate actions and class rights actions).

The P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will have a single class of trust shares
of beneficial interest. Each trust share will represent an equal, absolute,
identical, undivided interest in the trust property. The trust will be
authorized to issue an unlimited amount of trust shares.

                                      54



No Consideration Payable

There is no consideration payable to Carnival or Carnival shareholders in
connection with the DLC transaction. The consideration exchanged between
Carnival and P&O Princess is the execution and delivery by each company of the
agreements required to implement the DLC structure, including the Deeds of
Guarantee described in "Proposal 1--The Offer and Implementation
Agreement--Deeds of Guarantee".

Required Vote

Approval of the Offer and Implementation Agreement (Proposal 1) and related
transactions required to effect the DLC transaction, including the necessary
amendments to the articles of incorporation and by-laws of Carnival (Proposal
2) and the additional proposed amendments to our articles of incorporation and
by-laws (Proposals 3, 4, 5 and 6), requires the affirmative vote of a majority
of all outstanding shares Carnival shares entitled to vote at the special
meeting.

Accounting Treatment

We expect to account for the DLC transaction as a purchase by Carnival of P&O
Princess. We also expect that under U.S. GAAP the DLC transaction will be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations". In
accordance with the purchase method of accounting, the P&O Princess U.S. GAAP
accounting policies will be conformed to our accounting policies upon
completion of the DLC transaction.

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

Although there is no U.S. federal income tax authority addressing the tax
consequences of a DLC transaction, we believe that the DLC transaction should
not give rise to taxable income or gain for U.S. Carnival shareholders that are
U.S. holders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, the IRS may assert
that U.S. Carnival shareholders received taxable income as a result of the
various voting and equalization provisions necessary to implement the DLC
transaction, including the trust shares. We believe that such voting and other
rights, if any, received by shareholders are expected to have only nominal
value and, therefore, the receipt of such rights by U.S. Carnival shareholders
would only result in a nominal amount of income. It is possible, however, that
the IRS may disagree with this conclusion. For general information on the
application of current U.S. tax laws applicable to Carnival shareholders that
are U.S. holders in respect of the DLC transaction, see "The Combined
Group--Taxation of the Combined Group--U.S. Taxation."

Holders of Carnival shares should consult their independent professional
advisers in the light of their particular circumstances as to the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of the DLC transaction, as well as to the effect of any
state, local or applicable foreign tax law.

Regulatory Approvals

The DLC transaction is conditioned upon the receipt of certain regulatory
approvals and consents. We have received clearance from the U.S. Federal Trade
Commission and the European Commission for the DLC transaction, and therefore
no further regulatory approvals are required.

No Appraisal Rights

The holders of Carnival common stock have no right to an appraisal of the value
of their shares in connection with the DLC transaction.

Takeover Regulation of the Combined Group

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival and P&O Princess will
remain separately listed companies and will remain subject to any takeover laws
and rules applicable in their jurisdiction of

                                      55



organization, subject to provisions in the Carnival articles and the P&O
Princess articles, which are intended to have the effect of:

..   recognizing the substantive effect of the DLC transaction, which is that
    the two companies should be regarded as a combined enterprise that will be
    managed by a single senior executive management team, have aligned economic
    interests and pursue common objectives; and

..   respecting the acquisition limits under the UK Takeover Code.

The UK Takeover Panel has confirmed that, on the basis of information available
to it, upon completion of the DLC transaction, neither P&O Princess nor
Carnival will be a company to which the UK Takeover Code applies. The Takeover
Code provides a number of protections for shareholders, particularly in
relation to mandatory offers where a person or group of persons acting in
concert acquires in excess of 30% of the voting rights of a company.

Provisions will be included in the governing documents of Carnival and P&O
Princess in order to replicate certain of the protections provided by the UK
Takeover Code for companies listed on the LSE.

Control threshold

Under the P&O Princess articles and the Carnival articles, there will be a
limit that effectively prevents a person (together with any concert parties)
from (a) acquiring, or acquiring voting control over, 30% or more of the
combined votes which could be cast on a joint electorate action or (b) if such
person(s) already holds not less than 30%, but not more than 50%, of the
combined votes which would be cast on a joint electorate action, acquiring, or
acquiring voting control over, any shares which increase the percentage of
votes which such person(s) could cast on a joint electorate action, except as
described below.

Equivalent opportunities

If a person (together with any concert parties) exceeds either of the limits
described above then, under the Carnival articles and the P&O Princess
articles, that person will lose all rights attached to such shares as described
below unless that person makes, or announces a binding intention to make,
equivalent offers for both companies of the Combined Group within 10 days of
exceeding either limit and such offers are made to both Carnival shareholders
and P&O Princess shareholders within 28 days of making such an announcement. In
summary, the equivalent offers (and any increase or extension thereof) must:

..   be made to all holders of Carnival shares and P&O Princess shares at or
    about the same time;

..   comply with all applicable laws and rules which would govern an offer for
    the Carnival shares and which would govern an offer for the P&O Princess
    shares; and

..   be determined by the P&O Princess board and Carnival board to be equivalent
    with respect to consideration (including taking into account any existing
    share price disparity), terms and conditions of offer, information with
    respect to such offer and time to consider the offer for both the Carnival
    shareholders and the P&O Princess shareholders, both in relation to an
    initial offer and any increase or extensions.

Due to the variety of takeover procedures and structuring mechanisms for such a
transaction and the different takeover regimes applicable to both companies the
concept of equivalence has not been defined in the Carnival or P&O Princess
articles. It is expected that the boards of Carnival and P&O Princess,
considering applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act
and, where relevant, in consultation with the UK Takeover Panel, will determine
whether the offers are equivalent. In any event, such determination would be
made on a case-by-case basis.

                                      56



Each group of shareholders will be provided equivalent treatment and
opportunities and therefore will be entitled to make its own decision as to
whether the relevant offer is accepted. The completion of such transaction
would require both offers to become unconditional.

Breach of limits

Under the Carnival articles and the P&O Princess articles, if a person exceeds
either limit described above without making an equivalent offer for all
Carnival shares and P&O Princess shares, then, under the Carnival articles and
the P&O Princess articles, such excess shares will be transferred to a trustee
to be held in trust for a charitable organization. Such transfer may be
effected by the relevant board of the company concerned. The person who
originally beneficially owned those shares in breach of the prescribed
ownership limit will lose rights to income and any voting rights on those
shares. The trustee may then be required by the relevant board to transfer such
shares to another person, including (subject to applicable law and regulation)
the relevant company.

Exclusions to the ownership threshold

The provisions and restrictions described above will not apply to:

..   any buy-back;

..   any acquisition of shares if the restrictions are prohibited by applicable
    law and regulations;

..   any acquisition by members of the Arison family and trusts for their
    benefit provided their holdings do not increase by more than 1% of the
    voting power of the Combined Group in any period of twelve consecutive
    months, subject to their combined shareholdings not exceeding 40% of the
    voting power of the Combined Group. Any transfers of shares among members
    of the Arison family and trusts for their benefit are also not subject to
    the provisions and restrictions described above; and

..   any acquisition pursuant to a mandatory exchange.

Existing 4.9% Ownership Limit

In order for Carnival to qualify as a publicly-traded corporation under Section
883, the Carnival articles also contain provisions that prevent third parties,
other than the Arison family and trusts for their benefit, from acquiring
beneficial ownership of more than 4.9% of the outstanding Carnival shares
without the consent of the Carnival board of directors and provide for the
lapse of rights, and sale, of any shares acquired in excess of that limit. The
combined effect of these provisions precludes a third party from acquiring
control of a controlling interest in either company or the Combined Group.
These provisions may only be amended by both sets of shareholders, voting
separately as a class, in a class rights action.

                              THE COMBINED GROUP

The description of the Combined Group assumes completion of the DLC
transaction. The DLC transaction is conditioned on certain events, including
approval by the shareholders of both Carnival and P&O Princess.

The implementation of the DLC structure will involve a strategic combination of
the businesses of Carnival and P&O Princess. The two companies will have a
single senior executive management team and identical boards of directors, and
will be operated as if they were a single economic enterprise.

The Combined Group will be the largest cruise vacation group in the world,
based on revenues, passengers carried and available capacity. It will have a
wide portfolio of complementary brands, both by geography and product offering,
and will include some of the best known cruise brands globally. We believe that
the combination will allow the Combined Group to offer a wider range of
vacation choices for its passengers and will enhance its ability to attract
passengers from land-based vacations to cruise vacations.

As of January 31, 2003, Carnival and P&O Princess together had a combined fleet
of 65 cruise ships offering 99,982 lower berths, with 18 additional cruise
ships having 42,260 lower berths scheduled to be added over the next three and
a half years. In addition, the Combined Group will be a leading provider of
cruises to all major cruise destinations outside the Far East. The Combined
Group will have one of the youngest and most modern fleets in the cruise
industry, with an average vessel age (weighted by lower berths) of 7.5 years as
of January 31, 2003. The Combined Group will also operate two private
destination ports of call in the Caribbean for the exclusive use of its
passengers and two river boats in Germany (with a further two on order at
January 31, 2003), and will offer land-based tour packages as part of its
vacation product alternatives. Carnival and P&O Princess together carried
approximately 4.7 million passengers in fiscal 2002.

On a pro forma basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Combined Group would
have reported revenues of $6.9 billion and net income of $1.3 billion for the
fiscal year ended November 30, 2002. On the same basis, the Combined Group
would have reported shareholders' equity of $12.8 billion as at November 30,
2002.

Brands

The Combined Group will offer thirteen complementary brands with leading
positions in North America, the UK, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Brazil,
Argentina and Australia. These brands operate itineraries in the following
regions: Alaska, Australia, Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, the Caribbean, Europe,
the Hawaiian Islands, the Mediterranean, the Mexican Riviera, New England, the
Panama Canal, South America and other exotic destinations worldwide.

The Combined Group's principal brands will include:


                          
      Carnival Cruise Lines     -- primarily marketed in North America
      Princess Cruises
      Holland America Line

Costa Cruises                  --primarily marketed in southern Europe and Germany

P&O Cruises (Australia)        --primarily marketed in Australia


Both Carnival and P&O Princess have historically managed their brands on a
decentralized basis. The Combined Group intends to take a similar approach
while integrating certain back office activities and taking other steps to
achieve economies of scale and cost synergies.

Fleet

As of January 31, 2003, Carnival and P&O Princess together operated a fleet of
65 cruise ships with an aggregate capacity of 99,982 lower berths. As of that
date, Carnival and P&O Princess together had an additional 18 cruise ships on
order, with an aggregate capacity of 42,260 lower berths, scheduled for
delivery during the next three and a half years. In addition, the Combined
Group will operate two river boats on the Danube and as of January 31, 2003 had
two new river boats on order representing a further 400 lower berths.

As of January 31, 2003, the fleet of the Combined Group (excluding river boats)
would have had an average vessel age (weighted by lower berths) of 7.5 years
and an average vessel size of approximately 1,540 lower berths. Based on the
existing fleet and announced additions and withdrawals, and excluding river
boats, the average vessel age (weighted by lower berths) of the Combined
Group's fleet will be 8.7 years at November 30, 2006 and its average vessel
size will have increased to approximately 1,720 lower berths.

The table below summarizes the Combined Group's fleet capacity measured in
lower berths by brand as of January 31, 2003 and the projected fleet capacity
at November 30, 2006, taking into account existing cruise ships on order and
announced transfers and withdrawals. In accordance with industry practice,
capacity is based on two passengers occupying the lower berths in each cabin,
even though some cabins can accommodate more than two passengers.

(2)Arcadia, which is currently sailing in the P&O Cruises (UK) fleet, is due to
   be transferred to Ocean Village in the second quarter of 2003. Her refit
   will result in the creation of an additional 160 lower berths.

(3)This figure reflects the net result of the transfer of Adonia, with 2,010
   lower berths, from the Princess fleet to the P&O Cruises (UK) fleet in the
   second quarter of 2003 and the redeployment of Arcadia, with 1,450 lower
   berths, to the Ocean Village fleet in the second quarter of 2003.

   through 2006.

Strategy

Carnival and P&O Princess operate multi-brand strategies that are intended to
differentiate themselves from their competitors and provide products and
services appealing to the widest possible target audience across all major
segments of the vacation industry.

Having established the contemporary Carnival Cruise Lines brand in 1972,
Carnival entered the premium/luxury segment with the acquisition of Holland
America Line/Windstar Cruises in 1989. Carnival has continued to acquire and
build brands and expand its geographic reach, through the further acquisition
of the ultra luxury Seabourn brand, the contemporary European brand Costa
Cruises and the premium/luxury British brand Cunard. These six brands are
managed by four distinct management groups which operate on a decentralized
basis. Carnival has found this decentralized management approach to be highly
successful and expects the Combined Group to be managed in a similar fashion.

Similarly, P&O Princess has established a multi-brand strategy targeting a wide
customer base. From established positions in the UK and Australian cruise
industries, P&O Princess improved its position in the North American cruise
industry in the 1970s and 1980s through the acquisitions of Princess Cruises
and Sitmar Cruises and in Germany through the acquisition in 1999 of a majority
stake in AIDA Cruises, one of the best known cruise brands in Germany. P&O
Princess acquired the remainder of AIDA Cruises in 2000 and commenced the
operation of a new German brand, A'ROSA, in 2002. In the UK, P&O Princess has
recently launched Ocean Village, a new brand for the contemporary segment.

The Combined Group's will seek to be the leading global cruise vacation
operator with brands appealing to the widest target audience, focused on
sourcing passengers from developed vacation markets where cruising is one of
the fastest growing vacation alternatives. Carnival and P&O Princess also
expect to market certain of the Combined Group's brands to enter into and
expand developing vacation markets. In pursuit of this strategy, the companies
of the Combined Group will seek to:

Build on brand strengths

The Combined Group will have some of the most widely recognized cruise brands
in North America, Europe, South America (primarily Brazil and Argentina) and
Australia and will be a leading provider of cruise vacations to all of the key
cruise destinations outside the Far East, including Alaska, Australia, Bahamas,
Bermuda, Canada, the Caribbean, Europe, the Hawaiian Islands, the
Mediterranean, Mexican Riviera, New England, the Panama Canal, South America
and other exotic destinations worldwide. Carnival and P&O Princess intend to
continue to grow the Combined Group's brands and broaden and develop the range
of destinations, itineraries, tours and vacation alternatives offered by the
Combined Group. The Combined Group intends to provide greater choice and
options for its passengers among these well-recognized brands in order to
continue to attract passengers from the wider vacation market.

Increase global presence

It is expected that the brand offerings and diversified fleet of the Combined
Group will enable it to accelerate the entry of cruising into existing and new
geographical vacation markets.

We believe that there is a significant opportunity to continue to build the
Combined Group's presence in the relatively underdeveloped cruise vacation
industry within continental Europe. The Combined Group will be one of the
leading cruise vacation companies in the UK, Germany and southern Europe,

                                      62



which are three of the largest vacation markets outside of North America. In
the UK, P&O Cruises and Cunard are two of the most recognized brands. AIDA is
one of the best known cruise brands in Germany, and Costa is one of the most
widely recognized cruise brands in Europe.

Maximize growth through strategic deployment of its brands and fleet

The Combined Group expects to strategically deploy its diversified fleet in
order to increase its global reach and enter new and developing markets. Such
strategic deployment is expected to allow the Combined Group to appeal to the
largest target audience with brands, products and itineraries with the widest
appeal in a particular geographic region.

Carnival and P&O Princess have traditionally constructed purpose-built ships
for each of their brands, consistent with the passenger demographics and
product features of the particular brand. In addition, in order to take
advantage of the rapidly expanding demand in Europe for cruises, several
vessels have been transferred within the Carnival and P&O Princess groups over
the last several years. For example, Carnival's Tropicale was transferred to
Costa and now operates as the Costa Tropicale and Holland America's Westerdam
was transferred to Costa and now operates as the Costa Europa. P&O Princess has
successfully deployed vessels in order to build its brands in the UK and
Australia and to launch a new brand in Germany. For instance, in 2002 P&O
Princess transferred the Ocean Princess and the Crown Princess to the P&O
Cruises (UK) and A'ROSA brands in the UK and Germany, respectively, and intends
to transfer the Sea Princess to the P&O Cruises (UK) fleet in 2003. In 2000,
Princess Cruises' Sky Princess was redeployed to P&O Cruises (Australia) and
now operates as the Pacific Sky.

We expect the Combined Group to continue to explore opportunities to utilize
its vessels in such a manner consistent with providing the overall best return
for the Combined Group.

Realize cost savings.

Carnival has consistently been one of the most efficient cruise operators in
the cruise vacation industry. Carnival believes it has been able to achieve
these efficiencies through its decentralized management approach, economies of
scale, highly experienced management team and the ability to disseminate best
practices across its operating companies. Since its demerger from The
Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company in October 2000, P&O Princess
has pursued a cost reduction program aimed at bringing its cost structure more
into line with other major cruise operators. This program enabled underlying
costs to be reduced by 13% per available berth day over two years.

Carnival and P&O Princess expect that the Combined Group will generate
significant cost savings, estimated to be at least $100 million on an
annualized basis, commencing in the first full fiscal year following completion
of the DLC transaction. Carnival and P&O Princess expect that these cost
savings will be generated principally through the dissemination of best
practices between the companies, economies of scale and the rationalization of
certain shoreside operations. Carnival and P&O Princess expect that the
majority of cost savings will come from the following areas:

..   rationalizing each of sourcing and logistics, tour operations, certain back
    office functions and other offices and activities, such as sales and
    support offices globally;

..   reducing selling, general and administrative costs from areas such as
    insurance, rent and other administrative costs;

..   rationalizing port activities;

..   rationalizing information technology across the group; and

..   disseminating best practices across shipboard and shoreside operations.

One-time cash costs of achieving these cost savings are expected to be
approximately $30 million.

                                      63



Industry Background

Since 1970, cruising has been one of the fastest growing segments of the
vacation market. According to Cruise Lines International Association, or CLIA,
a leading industry trade group, in 1970 approximately 0.5 million North
American-sourced passengers took cruises of two consecutive nights or more.
CLIA estimates that this number reached approximately 7.4 million passengers in
2002, a compound annual growth rate of approximately 9% since 1970.

Outside North America, the principal sources of passengers for the industry are
the UK, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, South America and Australia. In all of
these areas, cruising represents a smaller proportion of the overall vacation
market than it does in North America but, based on industry data, is generally
experiencing higher growth rates.

Cruising offers a broad range of products to suit vacationing passengers of
many ages, backgrounds and interests. Cruise brands can be broadly divided into
the contemporary, premium and luxury segments. The Combined Group will have
significant product offerings in each of these segments. The contemporary
segment is the largest segment and typically includes cruises that last seven
days or less, have a more casual ambience and are less expensive than premium
or luxury cruises. The premium segment is smaller than the contemporary segment
and typically includes cruises that last from seven to 14 days. Premium cruises
emphasize quality, comfort, style and more destination- focused itineraries and
the average pricing on these cruises is typically higher than those in the
contemporary segment. The luxury segment is the smallest segment and is
typically characterized by smaller vessel size, very high standards of
accommodation and service, generally with higher prices than the premium
segment. Notwithstanding these marketing segment classifications, there is
overlap and competition among cruise segments.

The Combined Group will provide cruise vacations in most of the largest
vacation markets in the world: North America, the UK, Germany and southern
Europe. A brief description of the principal vacation regions in which the
Combined Group intends to operate is as follows:

North America

The largest vacation market in the world is North America. According to CLIA,
approximately 7.4 million North American passengers took cruises for two
consecutive nights or more in 2002.

Estimates of North American-sourced cruise passengers and the number of lower
berths marketed in North America compiled by CLIA from 1997 to 2002 are as
follows:



                                 Cruise
                               Passengers

                 Calendar Year America/(1)/   America/(2)/

                     1998       5,428,000        138,000
                     1999       5,894,000        149,000
                     2000       6,882,000        166,000
                     2001       6,906,000        176,000
                     2002       7,400,000        193,000

(1)Based on passengers carried for at least two consecutive nights for the
   calendar year (2002 estimates are preliminary).
(2)As of the end of the calendar year. These figures include some ships which
   are marketed in North America and elsewhere.

The principal itineraries visited by North American cruise passengers in 2002
were the Caribbean, Bahamas and Mexico. In addition, North American cruise
passengers visited Alaska, Bermuda, Europe, the Mediterranean, the Panama Canal
and other exotic locations, including South America, Africa, the South Pacific,
the Orient and India.

                                      64



Based on the number of ships that are currently on order worldwide and
scheduled for delivery between 2003 and 2006, Carnival and P&O Princess expect
that the net capacity serving North American consumers will increase
significantly over the next several years. Projections compiled by CLIA
indicate that by the end of 2003, 2004 and 2005, North America will be served
by 187,197 and 199 ships, respectively, having an aggregate passenger capacity
of approximately 213,000, 236,000 and 240,000 lower berths, respectively. These
figures include some ships that are expected to be marketed in North America
and elsewhere. CLIA's estimates of capacity do not include assumptions related
to unannounced ship withdrawals due to factors such as the age of ships or
changes in the location from where ships' passengers are predominantly sourced
and, accordingly, could indicate a higher percentage growth in North American
capacity than will actually occur. Nonetheless, we expect that net capacity
serving North American-sourced cruise passengers will increase over the next
several years.
Europe

We estimate that Europe is one of the largest vacation markets, but cruising in
Europe has achieved a much lower penetration rate than in North America. We
estimate that approximately 2.3 million European-sourced passengers took cruise
vacations in 2002 compared to approximately 7.4 million North American-sourced
passengers. However, from 1990 to 2002, the number of cruise passengers sourced
from Europe has been growing faster than the number of cruise passengers
sourced from North America. From 1997 through 2001, the rate at which Europeans
took a cruise grew at a compound annual growth rate of 12% compared to an 8%
growth rate with respect to North Americans. With respect to the European
countries from which the most cruise passengers are sourced, from 1997 through
2001 the compound annual growth rate in cruise passengers was 10% in the UK,
14% in France, 8% in Germany and 11% in Italy. Cruise vacation companies are
continuing to expand their offerings in Europe. For example, more cruise
vacations were marketed to European passengers in 2002 than in 2001. We expect
that a number of additional new or existing ships will be introduced into
Europe over the next several years.

We also believe that Europe will represent a significant area for the growth
for the Combined Group because, among other things, the vacation markets in
Europe are large but the level of penetration of cruising is low.

UK

The UK is one of the largest sources for cruise passengers in the world.
According to G.P.Wild (International) Limited, approximately 0.8 million UK
passengers took cruises in 2001. Cruising was relatively underdeveloped as a
vacation option for UK consumers until the mid-1990s, but since then there has
been strong growth in the number of cruise passengers sourced from the UK. The
number of UK cruise passengers increased by a compound annual growth rate of
approximately 10% between 1997 and 2001. The main destination for UK cruise
passengers is the Mediterranean. Other popular destinations for UK cruise
passengers include the Caribbean, the Atlantic Islands, including the Canary
Islands and the Azores, and Scandinavia. The Combined Group will have two of
the most widely recognized brands in the UK-P&O Cruises (UK) and Cunard.

Germany

Germany is one of the largest sources for cruise passengers in continental
Europe with approximately 0.4 million on cruise passengers in 2001. Germany
exhibited a compound annual growth rate in the number of cruise passengers
carried of approximately 8% between 1997 and 2001. We believe that German
cruising is an underdeveloped region for the cruise industry. The main
destinations visited by German cruise passengers are the Mediterranean and the
Caribbean. Other popular destinations for German cruise passengers include
Scandinavia and the Atlantic Islands. The Combined Group will have four brands
marketed in Germany: AIDA, A'ROSA, Costa and Cunard.

                                      65



Southern Europe

The main regions in southern Europe for sourcing cruise passengers are Italy,
France and Spain. Together, these countries generated approximately 0.7 million
cruise passengers in 2001. Cruising in Italy, France and Spain exhibited a
compound annual growth rate in the number of passengers carried of
approximately 15% between 1997 and 2001. We believe that these regions are also
relatively underdeveloped for the cruise industry. The Combined Group intends
to increase its penetration in Southern Europe through Costa Cruises, the
largest and one of the most recognized cruise brands marketed in Europe.

South America

Cruising has been marketed in South America for many years, although the region
remains in an early stage of development. Cruises from South America typically
occur during the southern hemisphere summer months of November through March,
and are primarily seven to nine days in duration. The Combined Group expects
its presence in this region will be primarily represented through the Costa
brand, which currently operates two vessels in this region Costa Classica and
Costa Tropicale, offering approximately 2,324 lower berths.

Australia

Cruising in Australia is relatively small but well established. We estimate
that approximately 0.1 million Australians took cruise vacations in 2001. The
Combined Group expects to continue to serve this region through the P&O Cruises
(Australia) brand, which currently operates Pacific Sky and, for a portion of
the year, Pacific Princess in this region, and through Cunard and Holland
America, which market their world and other cruises in Australia.

Characteristics of the Cruise Vacation Industry

Strong growth

Cruise vacations have experienced significant growth in recent years. The
number of new cruise ships currently on order from shipyards indicates that the
growth in supply of cruise capacity is set to continue for a number of years.
As a result of this continuing growth in supply, continued growth in demand
across the industry, particularly in North America, will be required in order
to take up this increase in supply. Given the historical growth rate of
cruising and the relative low penetration levels in major vacation markets, the
Combined Group believes that there are significant areas for growth. However,
in order for demand to meet available capacity, for the past few years there
has been pressure on cruise pricing. See "Risk Factors--Risks relating to the
Combined Group's businesses."

Wide appeal of cruising

Cruising appeals to a broad demographic range of passengers. Industry surveys
estimate that the principal passengers for cruising in North America (defined
as households with income of $40,000 or more headed by a person who is at least
25 years old) now comprise approximately 128 million people. About half of
these individuals have expressed an interest in a cruise as a vacation
alternative.

Relatively low penetration levels

North America has the highest cruising penetration rates per capita.
Nevertheless, CLIA estimates that only 15% of the U.S. population has ever
taken a cruise. In the UK, where there has been significant expansion in the
number of cruise passengers carried over the last five years, cruising
penetration levels per capita are only approximately three-fifths of those of
North America. In the principal vacation regions in continental Europe,
cruising penetration levels per capita are approximately one-fifth of those in
North America. Elsewhere in the world cruising is at an early stage of
development and has far lower penetration rates.

                                      66



Satisfaction rates

Cruise passengers tend to rate their overall satisfaction with a cruise-based
vacation higher than comparable land-based hotel and resort vacations. In North
America, industry studies indicate that cruise passengers experience a high
level of satisfaction with their cruise product, with 69% of cruisers finding
the value of the cruise vacation experience to be as good as, or better than,
the value of other vacations.

Competition

Carnival and P&O Princess compete, and the Combined Group will compete, both
with a wide array of land-based vacation alternatives and with other cruise
lines for consumers' disposable leisure time dollars.

The Combined Group will compete with land-based vacation alternatives
throughout the world, including, among others, resorts and hotels located in
Las Vegas, Nevada, Orlando, Florida, various Caribbean, Mexican, Bahamian and
Hawaiian Island destination resorts and numerous vacation destinations
throughout Europe and the rest of the world. Specifically, the Combined Group's
land-based competitors include, among many others, MyTravel, Club Mediterranee,
GoGo Tours, Fairfield Communities Vacation Ownership Club, First Choice,
Harrah's Entertainment, Hilton Hotels, Hyatt Hotels, Kuoni Travel, Mandalay
Resort Group, Disney, Universal Studios, Marriott International Resorts and the
Marriott Vacation Ownership Club, MGM Grand, Nouvelle Frontieres, Perillo
Tours, Ritz-Carlton Hotels, Saga Tours, Six Flags, Starwood Hotels and Resorts,
Sandals Resorts, Sun City Resorts, Thomas Cook, Trafalgar and companies in the
TUI Group, as well as various other theme parks.

The Combined Group's primary cruise competitors in the contemporary and/or
premium cruise segments for North American-sourced passengers will be Royal
Caribbean Cruises Ltd., which owns Royal Caribbean International and Celebrity
Cruises, Star Cruises plc, which owns Norwegian Cruise Line and Orient Lines,
and Disney Cruise Line.

The Combined Group's primary cruise competitors for European-sourced passengers
will be My Travel's Sun Cruises, Fred Olsen, Saga and Thomson in the UK;
Festival, Hapag-Lloyd, Peter Deilmann and Phoenix Reisen in Germany; and
Mediterranean Shipping Cruises, Royal Olympia Cruises, Louis Cruise Line and
Festival Cruises in southern Europe. The Combined Group will also compete for
passengers throughout Europe with Norwegian Cruise Line, Orient Lines, Royal
Caribbean International and Celebrity Cruises.

The Combined Group's primary competitors in the luxury cruise segment for its
Cunard, Seabourn and Windstar brands will include Crystal Cruises, Radisson
Seven Seas Cruise Line, and Silversea Cruises.

The Combined Group's brands will also compete with similar or overlapping
product offerings across all of the Combined Group's segments.

Employees

The Combined Group is expected to have approximately 11,400 full and
part-time/seasonal employees engaged in shoreside operations upon
implementation of the DLC structure. Carnival and P&O Princess will also
employ, in the aggregate, approximately 45,800 officers, crew and staff on its
combined fleet of 65 cruise ships and two river boats. A significant proportion
of employees that work in Carnival's and P&O Princess' ship, hotel, and motor
coach operations are unionized and/or are party to collective bargaining
agreements. We consider our respective employee and union relations generally
to be good.

                                      67



The Combined Group is expected to source its shipboard officers primarily from
Italy, Holland, the UK and Norway. The remaining crew positions are manned by
persons from around the world. The Combined Group is expected to utilize
various manning agents in many countries and regions to help secure its
shipboard employees.

Board and Management

Carnival and P&O Princess will be managed and operated as if they were a single
economic enterprise. Although each of Carnival and P&O Princess will continue
to exist as a separate company with its own board of directors and senior
executive management, the boards and senior executive management of each
company will be identical. The proposed directors of Carnival and P&O Princess
following implementation of the DLC structure are listed under "Directors and
Executive Officers of the Combined Group". In addition to their normal
fiduciary duties to the company and obligation to have regard to the interests
of its shareholders, the directors of each company will be entitled to have
regard to the interests of the other company and its shareholders. Micky
Arison, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Carnival, will be Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of both Carnival and P&O Princess and Howard S.
Frank, the Vice Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of Carnival, will be the
Vice Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of both Carnival and P&O Princess.
Peter Ratcliffe, P&O Princess' Chief Executive Officer, will be an executive
director of both Carnival and P&O Princess. In addition, Gerald R. Cahill, the
Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer of Carnival, will be the
Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer of both Carnival and P&O
Princess. The Combined Group expects to take advantage of the best management
practices across the two companies. The headquarters of the Combined Group will
be in Miami with a corporate office in London.

Dividends

Following completion of the DLC transaction, P&O Princess shareholders will
continue to receive dividends declared by P&O Princess and Carnival
shareholders will continue to receive dividends declared by Carnival. Dividends
in respect of both P&O Princess shares and Carnival shares declared after
completion of the DLC transaction will be paid at about the same time and in
equalized amounts in accordance with the equalization ratio disregarding any
amounts required to be deducted or withheld in respect of taxes and the amount
of any applicable tax credits.
Carnival will continue to pay dividends in U.S. dollars. P&O Princess
shareholders will continue to have the option to elect to receive dividends in
U.S. dollars or pounds sterling in accordance with P&O Princess' existing
procedures.

It is intended that the first dividend to be paid by the Combined Group will be
declared in April 2003, with a record date in May 2003 and a payment date in
June 2003.

On-going Reporting

We expect that the DLC transaction will be accounted for under U.S. GAAP using
the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations". In accordance with the
purchase method of accounting, the P&O Princess U.S. GAAP accounting policies
will be conformed to Carnival's accounting policies upon completion of the DLC
transaction.

Following implementation of the DLC structure, P&O Princess will change its
fiscal year end to November 30 so that it will be the same as Carnival's
current fiscal year end. The Combined Group intends to publish combined
financial statements denominated in U.S. dollars and prepared in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. We expect that these combined financial statements will be
included in a combined annual report. P&O Princess also expects to include
summary balance sheet information

                                      68



and summary income statement information prepared in accordance with UK GAAP,
without notes, in the annual report. P&O Princess shareholders will be able to
request an additional document containing P&O Princess financial statements
prepared in accordance with UK GAAP, which together with the other published
information would constitute the full annual report and financial statements.

We and P&O Princess will file periodic and current reports with the SEC on a
joint basis in accordance with the rules applicable to U.S. domestic reporting
companies. The financial statements presented in the periodic reports will
consist of combined financial statements of the Combined Group prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Taxation of the Combined Group

UK Taxation

Following the DLC transaction, P&O Princess will continue to be tax resident in
the UK and should continue to qualify for the UK tonnage tax regime in respect
of its relevant shipping profits.

In order for the tonnage tax regime to apply to relevant shipping profits, it
is necessary, among other matters, that the strategic and commercial management
of P&O Princess vessels currently within the tonnage tax regime remain located
in the UK. We believe that after implementation of the DLC transaction,
sufficient strategic and commercial management activities will remain located
in the UK to satisfy this test.

P&O Princess has been advised by its tax advisers that the DLC transaction
should not affect the application of the motive test exemption to the UK's
controlled foreign company rules, which currently applies to the non-UK
resident Princess Cruises brand vessel owning and operating subsidiaries.

U.S. Taxation

Exemption under Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code

In general, under Section 883, certain non-U.S. corporations are not subject to
U.S. federal income tax or branch profits tax on certain U.S. source income
derived from the international operation of a ship or ships. Carnival and many
of its ship-owning and operating subsidiaries are non-U.S. corporations that
are organized in foreign countries that the Internal Revenue Service has
recognized as having granted an equivalent exemption to U.S. corporations for
the purposes of Section 883 and that derive income from sources within the
United States. In addition, certain members of the P&O Princess Group are
organised in foreign countries that the Internal Revenue Service has recognized
as having granted an equivalent exemption to U.S. corporations for the purposes
of Section 883 and which derive income from sources within the U.S.

A foreign corporation will qualify for the benefits of Section 883 if, in
relevant part, (i) the foreign country in which the foreign corporation is
organized grants an equivalent exemption to corporations organized in the U.S.
and (ii) either (a) more than 50% of the value of the corporation's stock is
owned, directly or indirectly, by individuals who are residents of that country
or of another foreign country that grants an equivalent exemption to
corporations organized in the U.S. referred to as the "stock ownership test"
(such individuals are referred to as "Qualified Shareholders") or (b) the
foreign corporation meets the publicly-traded test described below. In
addition, to the extent a foreign corporation's shares are owned by a direct or
indirect parent corporation which itself meets the publicly-traded test, then
in analyzing the stock ownership test with respect to such subsidiary, stock
owned directly or indirectly by such parent corporation will be deemed owned by
individuals resident in the country of incorporation of such parent corporation.

                                      69



A company whose shares are considered to be "primarily and regularly traded on
an established securities market" in the U.S., the UK or another qualifying
jurisdiction will meet the publicly-traded test (the "publicly-traded test").
Pursuant to recently revised proposed Treasury Regulations issued under Section
883, stock will be considered "primarily traded" on one or more established
securities markets if, with respect to each class of stock of the particular
corporation, the number of shares in each such class that are traded during a
taxable year on any such market exceeds the number of shares in each such class
traded during that year on any other established securities market. Stock of a
corporation will be generally considered "regularly traded" on one or more
established securities markets under the proposed regulations if (i) one or
more classes of stock of the corporation that, in the aggregate, represent more
than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such
corporation entitled to vote and of the total value of the stock of such
corporation are listed on such market; and (ii) with respect to each class
relied on to meet the more than 50% requirement in (i) above, (x) trades in
each such class are effected, other than in de minimis quantities, on such
market on at least 60 days during the taxable year, and (y) the aggregate
number of shares in each such class of the stock that are traded on such market
during the taxable year is at least 10% of the average number of shares of the
stock outstanding in that class during the taxable year. A class of stock that
otherwise meets the requirements outlined in the preceding sentence is not
treated as meeting such requirements for a taxable year if, at any time during
the taxable year, one or more persons who own, actually or constructively, at
least 5% of the vote and value of the outstanding shares of the class of stock,
own, in the aggregate, 50% or more of the vote and value of the outstanding
shares of the class of stock (the "5% Override Rule"). However, the 5% Override
Rule does not apply (a) where the foreign corporation establishes that
Qualified Shareholders own sufficient shares of the closely-held block of stock
to preclude non-Qualified Shareholders of the closely-held block of stock from
owning 50% or more of the total value of the class of stock for more than half
of the taxable year; or (b) to certain investment companies provided that no
person owns, directly or through attribution, both 5% or more of the value of
the outstanding interests in such investment company and 5% or more of the
value of the shares of the class of stock of the foreign corporation.

Carnival will continue to qualify as a publicly-traded foreign corporation for
these purposes after the DLC transaction and, consequently its foreign
subsidiaries that are organized in foreign jurisdictions that grant an
equivalent exemption will, subject to the discussion in the following
paragraph, continue to qualify for Section 883 benefits. P&O Princess believes
that it also should continue to qualify as a publicly-traded foreign
corporation for these purposes after the DLC transaction and, consequently,
that, if relevant, certain members of the P&O Princess Group that are organised
in foreign jurisdictions that grant an equivalent exemption should, subject to
discussion in the following paragraph, continue to qualify for Section 883
benefits.

It is possible that the Combined Group may be characterized for U.S. federal
income tax purposes as a partnership between Carnival and P&O Princess or,
conceivably, among their shareholders, notwithstanding the express intention of
the parties that the DLC structure shall not constitute a partnership or other
similar entity for any purpose. While either such characterization could affect
the technical application of certain rules, neither should have a material
impact under Section 883 or applicable U.S. income tax treaties, as appropriate.

In addition, the DLC structure has a number of features, including the special
voting share and other features with respect to which there is limited or no
authority under the Internal Revenue Code or applicable U.S. income tax
treaties. Although the IRS could take a different position, Carnival and P&O
Princess believe that the special voting share structure is not inconsistent
with the publicly-traded test of Section 883 and that the DLC transaction
should not adversely affect the abilities of Carnival and P&O Princess, nor the
abilities of their respective subsidiaries, to qualify for the benefits of
Section 883 or the applicable U.S. income tax treaties, as appropriate.

                                      70



Exemption under Applicable Income Tax Treaties

Article 8 of the UK-U.S. Income Tax Treaty provides substantially the same
exemption from tax for UK resident companies for U.S. source shipping income as
Section 883. P&O Princess and its UK resident subsidiaries should continue to
qualify for such benefits after the DLC transaction has been completed.
Although the UK-U.S. Income Tax Treaty has been renegotiated and signed (though
it still has not entered into force as it is pending ratification by the U.S.),
the provisions of Article 8, as renegotiated, are essentially the same as the
provisions in the existing treaty. Unlike the current treaty, however, the
pending UK-U.S. Income Tax Treaty contains a Limitations on Benefits article
that requires one of certain alternative tests to be satisfied in order for a
party to be eligible for benefits under the treaty. P&O Princess believes that
it and its UK resident subsidiaries should satisfy the Limitation on Benefits
article if, and as of when, the pending treaty comes into force. The pending
treaty also contains other limitations that would deny the availability of
treaty benefits for income earned through certain entities. While these other
limitations would apply to income earned through certain P&O Princess entities,
P&O Princess believes, based on its current circumstances, that it will be able
to reorganize by, for example, moving the affected operations into a UK entity
or one formed in another equivalent exemption jurisdiction, such that the
relevant U.S. source shipping income should qualify for an exemption from U.S.
federal income tax, either under the pending treaty or pursuant to Section 883.

In addition, certain members of the Combined Group rely on other U.S. income
tax treaties for similar exemptions from U.S. taxation on U.S. source shipping
income. We do not believe that the DLC transaction will affect the ability of
these corporations to continue to qualify for such treaty benefits.

There is, however, no authority that directly addresses the impact of a DLC
arrangement or the availability of benefits under Section 883 or any applicable
U.S. income tax treaty and, consequently, the matters discussed above are not
entirely free from doubt.

Taxation in the Absence of an Exemption under Section 883 or Any Applicable
U.S. Income Tax Treaty.

Shipping income that is attributable to transportation of passengers which
begins or ends in the U.S. is considered to be 50% derived from U.S. sources.
Shipping income that is attributable to transportation of passengers which
begins and ends in foreign countries is considered 100% derived from foreign
sources and not subject to U.S. federal income tax. Shipping income that is
attributable to the transportation of passengers which begins and ends in the
U.S. without stopping at an intermediate foreign port is considered to be 100%
derived from U.S. sources.

The legislative history of the transportation income source rules suggests that
a cruise that begins and ends in a U.S. port, but that calls on more than one
foreign port, will derive U.S. source income only from the first and last legs
of the cruise. Because there are no regulations or other IRS interpretations of
these rules, the applicability of the transportation income source rules in the
aforesaid manner is not free from doubt.

In the event that Carnival or P&O Princess or any of their respective
subsidiaries were to fail, in part or in whole, to meet the requirements of
Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code or Article 8 of the UK-U.S. Income Tax
Treaty or other applicable U.S. income tax treaty, as appropriate, then the
non-exempt U.S. source shipping income would be subject to either the 4% of
gross income tax regime of Section 887 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "4%
tax regime") or the net income and branch profits tax regimes of Section 882
and Section 884 of the Internal Revenue Code (collectively, the "net tax
regime").

                                      71



The net tax regime is only applicable where the relevant foreign corporation
has, or is considered to have, a fixed place of business in the U.S. that is
involved in the earning of U.S.-source shipping income and substantially all of
this shipping income is attributable to regularly scheduled transportation.
Under the net tax regime, U.S.-source shipping income, net of applicable
deductions, would be subject to a corporate tax of up to 35% and the net
after-tax income would be potentially subject to a further branch tax of 30%.
In addition, interest paid by these corporations, if any, would generally be
subject to a 30% branch interest tax.

Under the 4% tax regime, which should be the tax regime applicable to vessel
owning subsidiaries, the U.S. source shipping income of each of the vessel
owning subsidiaries would be subject to a 4% tax imposed on a gross basis,
without benefit of deductions. Under the 4% tax regime, the maximum effective
rate of tax on the gross shipping income of these subsidiaries attributable to
transportation that either begins or ends in the U.S. would not exceed 2%.

German and Australian taxation

P&O Princess' German and Australian branches' tax position should not be
affected by the DLC transaction. The majority of their profits should continue
to be exempt from local tax by virtue of the UK/Germany and UK/Australia double
tax treaties.

Equalization payments

Carnival and P&O Princess do not anticipate that any material amounts of
equalization payments are likely to be made between them in accordance with the
Equalization and Governance Agreement for the foreseeable future. However, if
it becomes necessary to make equalization payments, any such payments received
in the UK are likely to be taxable. Further, the treatment from a U.S. federal
income tax perspective of such equalization payments is not without doubt. The
payment is to be grossed up in respect of any tax thereon. On the basis that
payments will not be material, any tax cost should not be significant.

Taxation of Carnival Shareholders

The following is a discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax
consequences which, in the opinion of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison
LLP, are generally applicable to a U.S. holder (as defined below) of Carnival
shares with respect to the DLC transaction. This discussion is based upon
existing U.S. federal income tax law, including the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"), proposed, temporary and final
Treasury Regulations, administrative pronouncements, and judicial decisions, as
in effect as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly
with retroactive effect. Carnival has not and will not seek a ruling from the
United States Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") with respect to the U.S. federal
income tax consequences described below and, as a result, there can be no
assurance that the IRS will agree with, or that a court will uphold, any of the
conclusions set forth herein.

This discussion assumes that each of the Carnival shares has been held as a
capital asset as defined in Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code in the
hands of the U.S. holder at all relevant times. This discussion assumes that
Carnival is not a "controlled foreign corporation," "foreign personal holding
company" or "passive foreign investment company" ("PFIC") for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. This discussion does not address state, local or foreign
tax consequences to U.S. holders, nor does this discussion address all the tax
consequences that may be relevant to a U.S. holder in light of such holder's
particular circumstances or to U.S. holders subject to special rules, including
certain financial institutions, regulated investment companies, insurance
companies, dealers in securities, tax exempt organizations, persons who hold
Carnival shares as part of a position in a "straddle" or "appreciated

                                      72



financial position" or as part of a "hedging" or "conversion" transaction,
persons that own or have owned, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the
Carnival shares, persons who acquired their Carnival shares through the
exercise or cancellation of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation
for services, U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar and
holders of Carnival shares that are not U.S. holders. This discussion does not
address U.S. tax considerations that may apply to Carnival shareholders that
are not U.S. holders.

A "U.S. holder" is a holder of Carnival shares who or that is for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (i) a citizen or individual resident of the United States,
(ii) a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation organized under the
law of the United States or any political subdivision thereof (including the
States and the District of Columbia), (iii) an estate or trust defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (iv) any other person that
is subject to U.S. federal income tax on its worldwide income.

Although there is no U.S. federal income tax authority addressing the tax
consequences of a DLC transaction, Carnival believes that the DLC transaction
should not give rise to taxable income or gain for U.S. Carnival shareholders
for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, the IRS may assert that U.S.
Carnival shareholders received taxable income as a result of the various voting
and equalization provisions necessary to implement the DLC transaction.
Carnival believes that such voting and other rights, if any, received by
shareholders are expected to have only nominal value and, therefore, the
receipt of such rights by U.S. Carnival shareholders would only result in a
nominal amount of income. It is possible, however, that the IRS may disagree
with this conclusion.

Holders of Carnival shares should consult their independent professional
advisers in the light of their particular circumstances as to the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of the DLC transaction, as well as to the effect of any
state, local or applicable foreign tax law.

        UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE COMBINED GROUP

The following unaudited pro forma financial information gives pro forma effect
to the proposed DLC transaction, after giving effect to the pro forma
adjustments described in the accompanying notes. We have prepared the unaudited
pro forma financial information from, and you should read it in conjunction
with, the historical consolidated financial statements, including the related
notes, of Carnival and P&O Princess that we have incorporated by reference in
this proxy statement/prospectus. For more information on how to obtain copies
of information incorporated by reference, see "Where You Can Find More
Information."

The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared in accordance
with U.S. GAAP and in accordance with Carnival's accounting policies under U.S.
GAAP. U.S. GAAP differs in certain respects from UK GAAP, and Carnival's
accounting policies under U.S. GAAP differ in certain respects from P&O
Princess' accounting policies under UK GAAP and U.S. GAAP. The notes to the P&O
Princess audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December
31, 2002, which are incorporated by reference in this proxy
statement/prospectus, describe the principal differences between U.S. GAAP and
UK GAAP as they relate to P&O Princess.

We expect that under U.S. GAAP the DLC transaction will be accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations." The business combination
adjustments include provisional estimates of the fair value of the identifiable
assets and liabilities acquired. On completion of the DLC transaction,
adjustments will be made to these provisional estimates to reflect their
estimated fair value at that time. In accordance with the purchase method of
accounting, the P&O Princess U.S. GAAP accounting policies will be conformed to
Carnival's accounting policies upon completion of the DLC transaction.

The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended November 30,
2002 has been prepared as if the DLC transaction had occurred on December 1,
2001. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of November 30, 2002 has been
prepared as if the DLC transaction had occurred on that date. The historical
financial information for P&O Princess used in the unaudited pro forma
financial information of the Combined Group is as at and for the year ended
December 31, 2002.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information:

..   has been included for illustrative purposes only and, because of its
    nature, may not give a true picture of the results and the financial
    position of the Combined Group;

..   does not purport to represent what the combined results of operations
    actually would have been if the DLC transaction had occurred on December 1,
    2001 or what those results will be for any future periods. The pro forma
    adjustments are based upon currently available information;

..   does not reflect the results of business operations or trading since
    November 30, 2002 for Carnival and December 31, 2002 for P&O Princess; and

..   has not been adjusted to reflect any net transaction benefits referred to
    in other sections of this proxy statement/prospectus.

3.  Accounting policy adjustments

The pro forma financial information has been prepared in accordance with the
accounting policies of Carnival under U.S. GAAP, which differ in certain
respects from the U.S. GAAP accounting policies of P&O Princess as noted below.
Upon completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival and P&O Princess will perform
a detailed review of their accounting policies and financial statement
classifications. As a result of this detailed review, it may become necessary
to make certain reclassifications to the Combined Group's financial statements
to conform the P&O Princess financial statements to the Carnival accounting
polices and classifications. Although management does not expect that this
detailed review will result in material changes to accounting policies or
classifications other than as noted below, no such assurance can be given at
this time.

(a)  Cruise revenues and expenses

    P&O Princess' accounting policy is initially to record deposits received on
    sales of cruises as deferred income and recognize them, together with
    revenues from onboard activities and all

                                      81



    Notes to the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Combined
                Group in accordance with U.S. GAAP--(Continued)

    associated direct costs of a voyage, on a pro rata basis at the time of the
    voyage. Carnival's accounting policy is to recognize these items generally
    upon completion of voyages with durations of ten days or less and on a pro
    rata basis for voyages in excess of ten days. For the year ended and as of
    30 November 2002 adjustments of $(2.9) million (affecting revenues by
    $(3.9) million and operating expenses by $1.0 million) and $(12.0) million
    (the latter affecting accounts receivable by $(3.4) million, accrued
    liabilities by $(0.1) million and customer deposits by $15.5 million) have
    been made to conform P&O Princess' policy to Carnival's policy.

(b)  Dry-docking

    P&O Princess' accounting policy is to capitalize dry-docking costs and
    amortize them to operating expense using the straight-line method through
    the date of the next scheduled dry-dock, which typically is over two to
    three years. Carnival's dry-dock accounting policy is the same as P&O
    Princess' except that the capitalized dry-dock costs are amortized to
    expense generally over one year. For the year ended and as of November 30,
    2002 adjustments of $(5.2) million and $(16.5) million have been made to
    conform P&O Princess' policy to Carnival's policy.

(c)  Marketing and promotion costs

    P&O Princess' accounting policy under U.S. GAAP is to expense all marketing
    and promotion costs as incurred. Carnival expenses all such costs as
    incurred except for brochures and media production costs, which are
    recorded as prepaid expenses and charged to expense as the brochures are
    consumed or upon the first airing of the advertisement, respectively. For
    the year ended and as of November 30, 2002 adjustments of $4.3 million and
    $18.9 million have been made to conform P&O Princess' policy to Carnival's
    policy.

4.  Business combination adjustments
(d)  Purchase consideration and related goodwill and intangible assets are as
follows:



                                                             (U.S.$m)  Notes

   Less fair value of net assets acquired                    (2,516.4) (iii)
                                                             --------
   Excess of purchase consideration over net assets acquired  2,924.4   (iv)
                                                             ========

--------
(i)The purchase consideration is expected to be based upon the average of the
   quoted closing market price of Carnival's shares beginning two days before
   and ending two days after January 8, 2003, the date its DLC transaction
   offer announcement was agreed to by the P&O Princess board. In addition, the
   number of P&O Princess shares is adjusted for the proposed share
   reorganization of 3.3289 existing P&O Princess shares for one new P&O
   Princess share, including P&O Princess stock options which will vest in full
   on completion of the DLC transaction. A Carnival share price of $25.31 has
   been used for purposes of this pro forma presentation and an estimated
   number of P&O Princess shares in issue of 212.6 million after adjusting for
   the share reorganization.
(ii)Represents Carnival's estimated direct costs of carrying out the proposed
    DLC transaction, including costs related to the registration of Carnival
    shares pursuant to the Partial Share Offer, of which $30.2 million has been
    incurred by Carnival and is included in other assets. An adjustment has
    been made to remove this $30.2 million from other assets as it will be
    included in the purchase consideration upon completion of the DLC
    transaction. Of the total $60.0 million of acquisition costs, $29.8 million
    had not been incurred as of November 30, 2002 and, accordingly, an
    adjustment has been made to increase accrued liabilities for this amount.

                                      82

                Group in accordance with U.S. GAAP--(Continued)

(iii)Based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of the identifiable
     assets acquired and liabilities assumed given current information. On
     completion of the DLC transaction, adjustments will be made to these
     preliminary estimates to reflect their estimated fair values at that time.
     We expect to have independent appraisals performed to assist us in
     establishing the fair value of P&O Princess' ships and amortizable and
     non-amortizable intangible assets. However, based on the information
     currently available, it is not expected that the amount of separately
     identifiable amortizable intangible assets will be material to the
     Combined Group's financial statements. No assurance can be given that the
     preliminary fair value estimates included in this pro forma financial
     information will not be materially changed as a result of these
     valuations. Fair value adjustments are detailed in the notes and the table
     below.

(iv)The excess of purchase consideration over net assets acquired is primarily
    estimated to include the value attributed to P&O Princess's trademarks,
    brand names and goodwill. Management believes that these trademarks and
    brand names have indefinite lives and, accordingly, based on SFAS No. 142,
    "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", no adjustment for pro forma
    amortization is required. It is not possible at this time to reasonably
    estimate the separate amounts attributable to identifiable intangible
    assets or goodwill since the measurement of these assets requires the
    expertise of an independent appraiser who will not be engaged until after
    the completion of the DLC transaction. Accordingly, the entire amount of
    the excess of the purchase consideration has currently been allocated to
    goodwill, but is expected to be allocated between goodwill and other

    subsequent to the completion of the DLC transaction based primarily on the
    appraiser's valuation. However, since it is expected that the material
    intangibles that

    Notes to the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Combined
                Group in accordance with U.S. GAAP--(Continued)

   will be identified and valued will have indefinite lives, no material impact
   on the pro forma statement of operations is expected as a result of this
   presentation on the Combined Group's balance sheet, as neither goodwill nor
   these indefinite lived intangibles are allowed to be amortized.

(e)A net adjustment of $15.1 million has been made against the fair value of
   hedged firm commitments. These adjustments relate to contractural
   commitments for ships which were ordered, and hedged, at a time when the
   euro exchange rate was different, and hence, these contracts could be
   replaced today at a euro price that would convert to a different U.S. dollar
   cost at current exchange rates.

   Otherwise, the book value, including prepaid dry-dock costs, and fair value
   of ships in use and under construction are preliminarily estimated to be the
   same in all material respects. However, we intend to have an appraisal of
   all the P&O Princess ships, so it is possible that the fair value of some of
   P&O Princess' ships could be less than or greater than their carrying value.

(f)An adjustment of $5.0 million has been made to the book value of P&O
   Princess fixed interest rate long-term debt to reflect current interest
   rates, without giving effect to any possible changes in credit ratings. The
   fair value of this debt is based upon quoted market prices or the discounted
   present value of future amounts payable on the debt. The fair value
   adjustment is amortized over the remaining term of the debt as applicable,
   which results in a pro forma increase of $1.5 million in interest expense
   for 2002. In addition, an adjustment has been made to write-off the book
   value of P&O Princess' historical deferred financing costs of $17.6 million
   related to its existing borrowings as such costs have been considered in
   determining the fair value of P&O Princess' debt.

(g)An adjustment of $66.0 million has been made to the book value of other tax
   assets to reflect recoverable value to the Combined Group and to reverse
   $2.8 million of P&O Princess' tax expense.

(h)An adjustment of $85.0 million has been made to record the fair value of P&O
   Princess' pension plan liabilities. This relates to the Merchant Navy
   Officers Pension Fund and is calculated based upon, among other things, P&O
   Princess' current share of total employer contributions.

(i)On completion of the DLC transaction all awards and options granted under
   the P&O Princess employee share incentive plans will vest in full. An
   adjustment has been made to reverse the P&O Princess employee share
   incentive and matching award charge of $1.9 million for the year ended
   November 30, 2002.

(j)An adjustment has been made to eliminate $75.4 million of P&O Princess'
   historical goodwill related to prior business acquisitions.

(k)P&O Princess expects to incur and expense approximately $146.0 million of
   costs related to its terminated Royal Caribbean transaction and the
   completion of the DLC transaction with Carnival, including costs incurred to
   register P&O Princess ordinary shares with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
   Commission. Under U.S. GAAP, $11.9 million was expensed in the year ended
   December 31, 2001, and $105.1 million was expensed in 2002. An adjustment
   has been made to reverse this $105.1 million in the pro forma statement of
   operations for 2002 since Carnival and P&O Princess believe that the Royal
   Caribbean and Carnival costs are non-recurring charges directly attributable
   in all material respects to the DLC transaction. Of the total $146.0 million
   of P&O Princess' costs, $29.0 million has not been incurred as at December
   31, 2002 and an adjustment has been made to increase accrued liabilities for
   this amount.

(l)An adjustment of $84.0 million ($70.1 million current and $13.9 million long
   term) has been made to record the fair value of P&O Princess' contractual
   commitments to receive probable and estimable liquidated damages and
   business interruption insurance proceeds related to the delayed delivery of
   the Diamond Princess. This ship was initially scheduled for delivery in May
   2003, but has been delayed as a result of a fire in October 2002.

(n)The pro forma weighted average number of shares has been calculated as if
   the DLC transaction had occurred on December 1, 2001 and after adjusting for
   the proposed P&O Princess share reorganization of 3.3289 existing P&O
   Princess shares for one new P&O Princess share.

   Based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding of 706.6
   million, including 14.2 million of share options which all vest upon
   completion of the DLC transaction (706.6 million diluted), or 212.3 million
   (212.3 million diluted) after the proposed P&O Princess share
   reorganization, for P&O Princess and 586.6 million (588.1 million diluted)
   for Carnival for the years ended December 31, 2002 and November 30, 2002,
   respectively, the pro forma weighted average number of shares for the
   Combined Group is calculated as 798.9 million (800.4 million diluted).

   The pro forma earnings per share amounts have been calculated using the pro
   forma weighted average number of shares, calculated as described above, and
   the pro forma earnings for the Combined Group.

(o)Certain restructuring and integration expenses may be recorded subsequent to
   completion of the DLC transaction. The amount of these charges has not yet
   been determined, although they have been preliminarily estimated to be
   approximately $30 million, as they will be the subject of a detailed plan of
   restructuring and integration to be completed subsequent to the consummation
   of the DLC transaction. A portion of these charges may subsequently be
   determined to be part of the purchase consideration. These charges are not
   reflected in the unaudited pro forma financial information because they are
   not expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.


                                      85



                  CHANGES IN RIGHTS OF CARNIVAL SHAREHOLDERS

Set forth below is a summary comparison of the rights of Carnival shareholders
before and after the DLC transaction (and assuming approval of Proposals 3, 4,
5 and 6 as well) that highlights the proposed changes to Carnival's articles of
incorporation and by-laws. This summary is not complete and we encourage you to
refer to the relevant parts of the proposed Third Amended and Restated Articles
of Incorporation of Carnival, which are attached to this proxy
statement/prospectus as Annex A-4, and the proposed Amended and Restated
By-laws of Carnival, which are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex A-5.

General

Carnival's authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares, of which
960,000,000 are shares of common stock and 40,000,000 are shares of preferred
stock. As of March 11, 2003, there were 586,972,729 shares of common stock and
no shares of preferred stock outstanding. Our transfer agent and registrar is
SunTrust Bank. We are proposing to increase our authorized capital stock to
2,000,000,000 shares, of which 1,959,999,998 are shares of common stock (see
Proposal 3), and 40,000,000 are shares of preferred stock. In connection with
the DLC transaction, we will also have one share of special voting stock, which
we refer to in this proxy statement/prospectus as a special voting share, and
one share of special stock, which we refer to in this proxy
statement/prospectus as the equalization share.

Upon completion of the DLC transaction, you will continue to own your Carnival
shares and will keep your existing certificates, if you have any. Carnival
shares will continue to be listed on the NYSE. In connection with the DLC
transaction, Carnival shareholders will receive trust shares of beneficial
interests in a special voting entity in the form of a trust that we are
creating. Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival shares will
trade in units consisting of one Carnival share and one trust share of
beneficial interest in the special voting entity. Separate stock certificates
will not be issued to represent these trust shares of beneficial interest;
instead, certificates representing your Carnival shares will also evidence
these trust shares of beneficial interest.

Voting Rights

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise,
each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock held
by the shareholder, and the articles of incorporation may provide that in
elections of directors and other specified circumstances, shareholders are
entitled to cumulative voting. At any meeting of shareholders, all matters,
except as otherwise provided by Panamanian law, will be decided by a majority
of the votes cast by shareholders present in person or by proxy. Carnival's
current articles of incorporation do not alter the voting rights as provided
under Panamanian law or provide for cumulative voting.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, all matters, except as otherwise
expressly provided by Panamanian law, the articles or by-laws, will be decided
by a majority of the votes cast by all shareholders entitled to vote
(including, where applicable, the Carnival Special Voting Entity) who are
present in person or by proxy at such meeting; provided that votes recorded as
abstentions will not be counted as having been "cast." In connection with the
DLC transaction, special voting arrangements will be implemented so that the
shareholders of Carnival and P&O Princess will vote together as a single
decision-making body on all actions submitted to a shareholder vote other than
matters designated as class rights actions or resolutions on procedural or
technical matters.

                                      86



These are called joint electorate actions and will include:

..  the appointment, removal or re-election of any director of Carnival or P&O
   Princess or both of them;

..  if required by law, the receipt or adoption of the annual accounts of both
   companies;

..  the appointment or removal of the auditors of either company;

..  a change of name by P&O Princess or Carnival, or both of them; or

..  the implementation of a mandatory exchange based on a change in tax laws,
   rules or regulations.

The following table illustrates how these voting arrangements would affect
joint electorate actions needing to be passed by a majority vote, assuming 100%
of each company's shareholders vote and the Partial Share Offer is taken up in
full:



                Carnival             P&O Princess          Outcome
                --------        ---------------------- ----------------
                                                 
          64% or more approve      100% disapprove       Action taken
         63% or less disapprove      100% approve        Action taken
          51% or less approve   55% or more disapprove Action not taken
         51% or less disapprove  54% or more approve     Action taken


A change in the equalization ratio resulting from a share reorganization or
otherwise would only affect voting rights on a per share basis. In the
aggregate, such a change would not affect the relative weighting between the
current shareholders of Carnival and P&O Princess. Assuming the Partial Share
Offer is taken up in full, approximately 79% of the equity (and hence of the
vote in a joint electorate action) would remain with the holders of Carnival
shares, while approximately 21% of the equity and the vote in a joint
electorate action would remain with the holders of P&O Princess shares.

The relative voting rights of the P&O Princess shares and Carnival shares will
be determined by the equalization ratio. Based on an equalization ratio of 1:1,
each Carnival share will have the same voting rights as one P&O Princess share
on joint electorate actions.

In the case of class rights actions, the company wishing to carry out the class
rights action would require the prior approval of shareholders of both
companies, each voting separately as a class. If shareholders of either company
do not approve the action, it generally will fail.

Class rights actions will include:

..  the voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up (or equivalent) of
   either company for which shareholder approval is required (other than as
   part of a voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up (or equivalent)
   of both companies at or about the same time provided that such liquidation
   is not for the purpose of reconstituting all or a substantial part of the
   business of the two companies in one or more successor entities);

..  the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all
   of the assets of either company other than a bona fide commercial
   transaction for valid business purposes and at fair market value and not as
   part of a proposal, the primary purpose of which is to collapse or unify the
   DLC structure;

..  an adjustment to the equalization ratio, other than in accordance with the
   Equalization and Governance Agreement;

..  any amendment, removal or alteration of any of the provisions of P&O
   Princess' articles of association and Carnival's articles of incorporation
   and by-laws which entrench specified core provisions of the DLC structure;

                                      87



..  any amendment or termination of the principal agreements under which the DLC
   structure is implemented (except where otherwise specifically provided in
   the relevant agreement);

..  any amendment to, removal or alteration of the effect of certain tax-related
   provisions of Carnival's articles of incorporation that would be likely to
   cause a mandatory exchange; and

..  anything which the boards of both companies agree should be approved as a
   class rights action.

The following table illustrates how these voting arrangements would affect
class right actions:



                    Carnival    P&O Princess
                  shareholders  shareholders     Outcome
                  ------------  ------------ ----------------

--------
(1)Assumes that holders of at least approximately 2% or more of the outstanding
   Carnival shares do not cast votes on the action. In contrast, if all
   Carnival shareholders voted in favor of the action, it would be taken.
(2)Assumes that holders of at least approximately 2% or more of the outstanding
   P&O Princess shares do not cast votes on the action, or in the case of a
   special resolution that at least one vote is cast against the action. In
   contrast, if all P&O Princess shareholders voted in favor of the action, it
   would be taken.

When a quorum for the transaction of business is present at any meeting, a
resolution duly approved at a meeting of Carnival's shareholders by the
affirmative vote of a majority of all the votes cast on such resolution by all
shareholders of Carnival entitled to vote on it (including, where applicable,
the Carnival Special Voting Entity as holder of the Carnival special voting
share described below) who are present in person or by proxy at the meeting
will decide such question brought before such meeting, unless the question is
one upon which, by express provision of applicable law or regulation, the
articles of incorporation or the by-laws, a greater vote is required, in which
case such express provision will govern. Every resolution put to a vote at any
meeting of Carnival shareholders is conducted on a poll.

No resolution to approve a class rights action or joint electorate action will
be approved unless a parallel P&O Princess shareholders' meeting is held to
vote on any equivalent resolution.

The Carnival board and the P&O Princess board may:

..  decide to seek approval from shareholders for any matter that would not
   otherwise require such approval;

..  require any joint electorate action to instead be approved as a class rights
   action; or

..  specify a higher majority vote than the majority that would otherwise be
   required by applicable laws and regulations.

Special Voting Shares

Before DLC transaction

Carnival's current articles of incorporation and by-laws do not provide for a
special voting share, as the special voting share is merely a mechanism to give
effect to shareholder votes at parallel shareholder meetings on joint
electorate actions and class rights actions as described above under ''Voting
Rights'' and quorum provisions as described below under ''Quorum
Requirements,'' in each case following completion of the DLC transaction.

After DLC transaction

Reflecting votes of P&O Princess shareholders at Carnival meetings

In connection with the DLC transaction, Carnival's articles of incorporation
will be amended to authorize one special voting share. The Carnival special
voting share will have no rights to income or capital and no voting rights
except as described below. Upon completion of the DLC transaction,

                                      88



Carnival will issue the Carnival special voting share to the Carnival Special
Voting Entity. At all meetings at which a joint electorate action or a class
rights action will be considered, the holder of the Carnival special voting
share must be present.

For joint electorate actions, the Carnival special voting share will represent
the number of votes cast at the parallel meeting of P&O Princess shareholders
(as adjusted by the equalization ratio and rounded up to the nearest whole
number) and will represent "yes" votes, "no" votes and abstention at the
Carnival meeting in accordance with votes cast at the P&O Princess meeting.

For class rights actions, the Carnival Special Voting Entity, as holder of the
Carnival special voting share, will only vote if the proposed action has not
been approved at the parallel P&O Princess meeting. In that event, the Carnival
special voting share will represent that number of votes equal to the largest
whole percentage that is less than the percentage of the number of votes
necessary to defeat the resolution at the Carnival meeting if the total votes
capable of being cast by all outstanding Carnival shares able to vote were cast
in favor of the resolution. In most cases, this will be 49% (for a majority
vote, 49% is the largest whole percentage that is less than the 50% needed to
defeat the resolution). As a result, in the case of a majority vote, the
Carnival special voting share will represent a number of votes equal to 98% of
the votes capable of being cast by all Carnival shares (excluding the votes
represented by the Carnival special voting share). Therefore, assuming holders
of approximately 2% or more of the Carnival shares do not cast votes on such
class rights action, it will fail. If the P&O Princess shareholders approve the
proposed action, the Carnival special voting share will not represent any votes.

The Carnival special voting share will not represent any votes on any
resolution of a procedural or technical nature, which we refer to in this
document as "procedural resolutions." Procedural resolutions are those that do
not adversely affect the shareholders of P&O Princess in any material respect
and are put to the Carnival shareholders at a meeting. The Chairman of the
Carnival board will, in his absolute discretion, determine whether a resolution
is a procedural resolution. To the extent that such matters require the
approval of Carnival shareholders, any of the following will be procedural
resolutions:

..  that certain people be allowed to attend or be excluded from attending the
   meeting;

..  that discussion be closed and the question put to the vote (provided no
   amendments have been raised);

..  that the question under discussion not be put to the vote (where a
   shareholder feels the original motion should not be put to the meeting at
   all, if such original motion was brought during the course of that meeting);

..  to proceed with matters in an order other than that set out in the notice of
   the meeting;

..  to adjourn the debate (for example, to a subsequent meeting); and

..  to adjourn the meeting.

Reflecting votes of Carnival shareholders at P&O Princess meetings

On completion of the DLC transaction, the P&O Princess special voting share
will be transferred to the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust.
For joint electorate actions, the P&O Princess special voting share will
represent the number of votes cast at the parallel meeting of Carnival
shareholders (as adjusted by the equalization ratio and rounded to the nearest
whole number) and will represent "yes" votes, "no" votes and abstention at the
P&O Princess meeting in accordance with votes cast at the Carnival meeting.

For class rights actions, the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust,
as holder of the P&O Princess special voting share, will only vote if the
proposed action has not been approved at the

                                      89



parallel Carnival meeting. In that event, the P&O Princess special voting share
will represent that number of votes equal to the largest whole percentage that
is less than the percentage of the number of votes (or, in the case of a
special resolution, such percentage less one vote) necessary to defeat the
resolution at the P&O Princess meeting if the total number of votes capable of
being cast by all outstanding P&O Princess shares (and other P&O Princess
shares able to vote) were cast in favor of the resolution. In most cases, this
will be 49% (for a majority vote, 49% is the largest whole percentage that is
less than the 50% needed to defeat the resolution). As a result, in the case of
a majority vote, the P&O Princess special voting share will represent a number
of votes equal to 98% of the votes capable of being cast by all P&O Princess
shares (excluding the votes represented by the P&O Princess special voting
share). Therefore, assuming holders of approximately 2% or more of P&O Princess
shares do not cast votes on such class rights action, it will fail. If the
Carnival shareholders approve the proposed action, the P&O Princess special
voting share will not represent any votes.

The P&O Princess special voting share will not represent any votes on any
procedural resolutions.

Trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust
will be transferred to Carnival. Immediately following this transfer, Carnival
will distribute the trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust by way of dividend to Carnival shareholders of record at
the close of business on April 17, 2003. Separate certificates will not be
issued to represent these trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O
Princess Special Voting Trust; instead, the trust shares of beneficial interest
will be paired with, and evidenced by, certificates representing Carnival
shares, as provided in the pairing agreement. The provisions of the pairing
agreement described under ''Special Voting Entities; Special Voting Shares --
Pairing Agreement'' will also be reflected in the Carnival articles.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival shares will trade in
units consisting of one Carnival share and one trust share of beneficial
interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust. The trust shares of
beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will entitle
Carnival shareholders to receive any distributions made by the P&O Princess
Special Voting Trust. As the sole purpose of the P&O Princess Special Voting
Trust relates to the holding of the P&O Princess special voting share, it is
not expected to make any distributions.

Equalization Share

Before DLC transaction
Carnival's current articles of incorporation and by-laws do not provide for an
equalization share, as the equalization share is merely a mechanism to give
effect to equalized dividend payments to the shareholders of Carnival and P&O
Princess.

After DLC transaction

In connection with the DLC transaction, Carnival's articles will be amended to
authorize one equalization share, par value $0.01 per share. The equalization
share will:

..  have rights to dividends in accordance with the Equalization and Governance
   Agreement as declared and paid by the board of directors;

..  have no rights to receive notice of, attend or vote at any shareholder
   meeting; and

..  in the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation of Carnival, rank
   after all other holders of shares.

Quorum Requirements

Before DLC transaction

Under Carnival's current by-laws, the holders of a majority of the shares of
stock entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders, present in person or
represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum for the transaction of any business
at such meeting.

                                      90



After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, the presence in person or by proxy
at any meeting of Carnival shareholders holding at least one-third of the total
votes entitled to be cast will constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business at such meeting, except as otherwise required by applicable law or
regulation, the articles of incorporation or the by-laws.

For purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at any meeting of
shareholders where a joint electorate action or a class rights action is to be
considered:

..  if the meeting of Carnival shareholders convenes before the parallel
   shareholder meeting of P&O Princess, the Carnival special voting share will,
   at the commencement of the meeting, have no votes and therefore will not be
   counted for purposes of determining the total number of shares entitled to
   vote at such meeting or whether a quorum exists at such meeting, although
   the Carnival special voting share itself must be present, either in person
   (through a representative of the Carnival Special Voting Entity) or by proxy;

..  if the meeting of the Carnival shareholders convenes at substantially the
   same time as or after the parallel shareholder meeting of P&O Princess with
   respect to one or more joint electorate actions, the Carnival special voting
   share will have the maximum number of votes attached to it as were cast on
   such joint electorate actions, either for, against or abstained, at the
   parallel shareholder meeting of P&O Princess, and such maximum number of
   votes (including abstentions) will constitute shares entitled to vote and
   present for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at such meeting;
   and

..  if the meeting of shareholders convenes at substantially the same time as or
   after the parallel shareholder meeting of P&O Princess with respect to a
   class rights action, the Carnival special voting share will, at the
   commencement of the meeting, have no votes and therefore will not be counted
   for purposes of determining the total number of shares entitled to vote at
   such meeting or whether a quorum exists at such meeting, although the
   Carnival special voting share itself must be present, either in person
   (through a representative of the Carnival Special Voting Entity) or by proxy.

In addition, in order for a quorum to be validly constituted with respect to
meetings of shareholders convened to consider a joint electorate action or
class rights action, the Carnival Special Voting Entity must be present at such
meeting.

Shareholder Action By Written Consent

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law provides that shareholders may act by written consent and
Carnival's current by-laws allow action to be taken by written consent.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival's by-laws will provide
that Carnival shareholders may not act by written consent.

                                      91



Shareholder Proposals

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law does not specifically address the issue of shareholders'
proposals and Carnival's by-laws do not expressly permit shareholder proposals
to be considered at the annual meeting of shareholders. Panamanian law requires
that prior notice of a meeting must set out the purpose or purposes for which
the meeting is convened. Any proposal to be discussed at a meeting should be
included in the notice of the meeting, unless the notice reserves time for any
other matters which the shareholders may which to discuss.

Under the rules of the Exchange Act, shareholders may submit proposals,
including director nominations, for consideration at shareholder meetings. Such
proposals will need to comply with SEC regulations regarding the inclusion of
shareholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. In order for
shareholder proposals to be considered for inclusion in Carnival's proxy
statement/prospectus for an annual meeting, the written proposals must be
received by Carnival not less than 120 calendar days before the first
anniversary of the date of mailing of the proxy statement from the previous
year's annual meeting.

Carnival's by-laws provide that at any special meeting of shareholders only
such business may be transacted as is related to the purpose or purposes of
such meeting set forth in the notice of the special meeting. Carnival's by-laws
provide that special meetings of shareholders may only be called by the
Carnival board or the President or Secretary of Carnival.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation or
by-laws regarding shareholder proposals.

Standard of Conduct for Directors

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law imposes a general fiduciary duty on directors to act prudently
and in the best interests of the company. Among other things, directors are
responsible for the authenticity of the payments which appear to have been made
on behalf of the company, for the validity of dividends to be paid, general
book-keeping and for effecting the operation of the company in accordance with
applicable laws, its articles of incorporation, its by-laws, and resolutions of
the General Assembly of shareholders.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation or
by-laws regarding the standard of conduct for directors, except that following
completion of the DLC transaction, the Carnival board of directors will be
authorized to operate and carry into effect the Equalization and Governance
Agreement, the SVE Special Voting Deed and the Carnival Deed of Guarantee and,
subject to applicable laws and regulations, nothing done by any director in
good faith pursuant to such authority and obligations will constitute a breach
of the fiduciary duties of such director to Carnival or its shareholders. In
particular, the directors will, in addition to their duties to Carnival, be
entitled to consider the interests of the Carnival shareholders and the P&O
Princess shareholders as if Carnival and P&O Princess were a single entity.
Following completion of the DLC transaction, the boards of directors of
Carnival and P&O Princess will be identical.

                                      92



Meetings of the Board of Directors

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, the business of every corporation is to be managed and
directed by a board of directors whom, subject to the provisions of Panamanian
law and the articles of incorporation, will have absolute control and full
direction over the corporation's affairs. Carnival's current articles of
incorporation provide that meetings of the board of directors may be held in
the Republic of Panama or in any other country and any director can be
represented and vote by proxy. The board of directors may act by written
consent of a majority of the directors or their proxies in lieu of a meeting. A
majority of the total number of directors constitutes a quorum for the
transaction of business at any meeting of Carnival's board, and the vote of a
majority of the directors present at the time of the vote, if a quorum is
present, will be the act of the board.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, at all meetings of each board of
directors, the presence in person or by proxy, of at least one-third of the
total number of directors will constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business except as may be otherwise specifically provided by applicable law,
the articles of incorporation or by-laws. The act of a simple majority of the
directors present in person or by proxy at any meeting at which there is a
quorum will constitute a valid act of the board of directors, except as may be
otherwise specifically provided by applicable law or regulation, the articles
of incorporation or by-laws. The board of directors will continue to be allowed
to act by written consent.

General Meetings of Shareholders

Before DLC transaction

The current by-laws of Carnival provide that the annual meeting of shareholders
be held on a date and at a time in March or April of each year fixed by the
Carnival board. Under Panamanian law, the President, Vice President, Secretary,
or Assistant-Secretary may also determine the place of such meeting which may
be within or without of the Republic of Panama.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, written notice of all meetings of
shareholders will have to state the purpose of the meeting, including whether a
joint electorate or class rights action will be considered. The requirement
that the annual meeting be held in March or April of each year will be removed.

In addition, if Carnival proposes to undertake a joint electorate action or
class rights action, Carnival must immediately give notice to P&O Princess of
the nature of the joint electorate action or the class rights action it
proposes to take. Unless such action is proposed to be taken at the annual
meeting of shareholders, the board of directors must convene a special meeting
for the purpose of considering a resolution to approve the joint electorate
action or class rights action. Such meeting will be held as close in time as
practicable with the parallel shareholder meeting convened by P&O Princess for
purposes of considering such joint electorate action or class rights action. If
Carnival receives notice from P&O Princess that P&O Princess proposes to
undertake a joint electorate action or a class rights action, the Carnival
board of directors must convene a meeting of Carnival shareholders as close in
time as practicable to the P&O Princess meeting and must propose an equivalent
resolution as that proposed at the P&O Princess meeting. Carnival must
cooperate fully with P&O Princess in preparing resolutions, explanatory
memoranda or any other information or material required in connection with the
proposed joint electorate action or class rights action.

                                      93



Special Meetings of Shareholders

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law provides that special meetings of shareholders may be called by:
(1) the President, Vice President, Secretary, or Assistant-Secretary; or (2)
any person or persons authorized by the corporation's articles of incorporation
or by-laws. The by-laws of Carnival provide that special meetings of
shareholders may be called at any time by the board of directors, the President
or the Secretary. Shareholders may not call special meetings. Carnival's
by-laws provide that written notice of each meeting of the shareholders,
stating the date, hour, place and purpose or purposes thereof, will be given,
personally or by mail, to each shareholder entitled to notice of or to vote at
the meeting not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the
meeting. If mailed, such notice will be deposited in the U.S. mail, postage
prepaid, directed to the shareholder at his/her address as it appears on the
records of Carnival.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation and
by-laws regarding special meetings, except that following completion of the DLC
transaction, written notice of all meetings of shareholders will state the
purpose of the meeting, including whether a joint electorate action or class
rights action will be considered. In addition, if Carnival proposes to
undertake a joint electorate action or class rights action, Carnival must
immediately give notice to P&O Princess of the nature of the joint electorate
action or the class rights action it proposes to take. Unless such action is
proposed to be taken at the annual meeting of shareholders, the board of
directors is to convene a special meeting for the purpose of considering a
resolution to approve the joint electorate action or class rights action. Such
meeting will be held as close in time as practicable with the parallel
shareholder meeting convened by P&O Princess for purposes of considering such
joint electorate action or class rights action. If Carnival receives notice
from P&O Princess that P&O Princess proposes to undertake a joint electorate
action or a class rights action the Carnival board of directors must convene a
meeting of Carnival shareholders as close in time as practicable to the P&O
Princess meeting and must propose an equivalent resolution as that proposed at
the P&O Princess meeting. Carnival must cooperate fully with P&O Princess in
preparing resolutions, explanatory memoranda or any other information or
material required in connection with the proposed joint electorate action or
class rights action.

Sources and Payment of Dividends

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, a corporation may pay dividends to the extent of a
corporation's net earnings or capital surplus.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival expects to continue to
pay quarterly dividends and there will be no change in the entitlement of
quarterly dividends for shareholders of either company. Carnival shareholders
and P&O Princess shareholders will have rights to income and capital
distributions from the combined group based on the equalization ratio. In order
for the companies to pay a dividend or make a distribution, the ratio of
dividends and distributions paid per share of Carnival common stock to
dividends and distributions paid per P&O Princess ordinary share must equal the
equalization ratio, taking account the applicable currency exchange rate.

Dividends will be equalized according to the equalization ratio (and any
balancing transactions between the companies will be determined and made)
before deduction of any amounts in respect of the tax required to be deducted
or withheld and excluding the amounts of any tax credits or other tax benefits.

                                      94



If one company has insufficient profits or is otherwise unable to pay a
dividend, Carnival and P&O Princess will, as far as practicable, enter into
such balancing transactions as are necessary to enable both companies to pay
dividends in accordance with the equalization ratio. This may take the form of
a payment from one company to the other or a dividend payment on an
equalization share. Following completion of the DLC transaction Carnival and
P&O Princess expect that dividends received by P&O Princess shareholders will
be made to be consistent with Carnival's regular quarterly dividend.

Rights of Purchase and Redemption

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, except as otherwise provided in the articles of
incorporation, any corporation may purchase, redeem and dispose of its own
shares. If the acquisition of shares is made with funds or property other than
the excess of assets over the liabilities or the net earnings of the
corporation, the acquired shares of stock will be canceled by the reduction of
the issued stock, but such shares may be sold again if the authorized capital
stock is not decreased by the cancellation of such shares. Shares of its own
stock acquired by any corporation, from funds derived from the excess of its
assets over its liabilities or net earnings, may be retained by the corporation
as treasury stock and sold by it or may be canceled or reissued by resolution
passed by the board of directors.

Carnival's current articles of incorporation do not prohibit the corporation
from purchasing, redeeming and disposing of its own shares. The NYSE requires
that prompt publicity be given and prompt notice be sent to the NYSE of action
which will result in, or which looks toward, either the partial or full call
for redemption of a listed security. NYSE rules provide that when a listed
security is fully redeemed, trading is suspended as soon as the redemption
funds become available to the holders of the security. When only a part of the
listed securities are redeemed, the amount authorized to be listed is reduced
by the amount redeemed as soon as the redemption funds become available to
holders of the redeemed securities.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation or
by-laws regarding rights of purchase and redemption of Carnival shares.

Appraisal Rights

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, shareholders of a corporation do not have appraisal
rights.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation or
by-laws regarding appraisal rights.

Pre-emptive Rights

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, a shareholder is entitled to pre-emptive rights to
subscribe for additional issuances of common stock or any security convertible
into stock in proportion to the shares that are owned unless there is a
provision to the contrary in the articles of incorporation. Carnival's articles
of incorporation provide that Carnival shareholders are not entitled to
pre-emptive rights.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation
regarding pre-emptive rights, except that pursuant to the Equalization and
Governance Agreement, neither Carnival nor P&O

                                      95



Princess may issue any shares carrying voting rights to the other or its
subsidiaries (except on a pre-emptive basis) during the first two years
following the date of the Equalization and Governance Agreement. After
expiration of the initial two-year period, for each of the subsequent three
years neither Carnival nor P&O Princess may issue shares carrying voting rights
to the other company, or any of that company's subsidiaries, except on a
pre-emptive basis to all shareholders, in excess of 5% per year of the issued
or outstanding shares (calculated as at the first day in such annual period).
Thereafter, there will be no restriction on the issuance of shares carrying
voting rights to the other company or any of that company's subsidiaries. These
restrictions may be varied by a class rights action.

Amendment of Governing Instruments

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, unless the articles of incorporation require a greater
vote, an amendment to the articles of incorporation may be made:

..   by the holders or their proxies of all the issued and outstanding stock of
    the corporation entitled to vote;

..   by means of a resolution passed by holders or their proxies of the majority
    of the outstanding stock of the corporation entitled to vote; and

..   in case the amendment to the articles consists in any change in the
    preference of shares of any class, by means of a resolution passed by
    holders or their proxies of majority of the outstanding stock of the
    corporation entitled to vote of each class.

Carnival's articles do not specifically address amendments.

Under Panamanian law, the board of directors of a corporation has the power to
adopt, amend or repeal the by-laws of the corporation, unless specifically
provided to the contrary by the articles of incorporation or in the by-laws
approved by the shareholders. The by-laws of Carnival provide that the by-laws
may be altered, amended, supplemented or repealed or new by-laws may be
adopted, by the board of directors or by vote of the holders of the shares
entitled to vote in the election of directors. Any by-laws adopted, altered or
supplemented by the board of directors may be altered, amended, supplemented or
repealed by the shareholders entitled to vote thereon.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, any amendment to the provisions of
Carnival's amended articles of incorporation which entrench the DLC structure
will require approval as a class rights action. The entrenched provisions of
the amended articles of incorporation include matters relating to:

..  the special voting share;

..  anti-takeover provisions;

..  dividends and distributions;

..  amendments to Carnival's articles and by-laws; and

..  liquidation.

All other provisions of Carnival's articles (except as provided below) may be
amended by the shareholders of Carnival and P&O Princess voting together in a
joint electorate action. Amendments to the Carnival articles require approval,
whether in a class rights action or joint electorate action, of a

                                      96



majority of all votes entitled to be cast with respect thereto (including votes
entitled to be cast by the Carnival special voting share) at a meeting of
Carnival shareholders.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment of the articles of incorporation
(1) to specify or change the location of the office or registered agent of
Carnival, or (2) to make, revoke or change the designation of a registered
agent, or to specify or change the registered agent, may be approved and
effected by the board of directors without the approval of the shareholders of
Carnival or the shareholders of P&O Princess.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, any amendment to or repeal of the
provisions of Carnival's by-laws which entrench the DLC structure will also
require approval as a class rights action. Any amendment to or repeal of any
by-law of Carnival other than any of the Carnival entrenched by- laws may be
approved and effected by the board of directors without the approval of the
shareholders of Carnival or the shareholders of P&O Princess. The entrenched
provisions of the amended by-laws include matters relating to:

..  the transferability of the special voting share;

..  the scope of, and voting rights and procedures in relation to, joint
   electorate actions, class rights actions and procedural resolutions; and

..  election, qualification and disqualification of directors.

Any amendment to or repeal of any by-law of Carnival other than any of the
Carnival entrenched by-laws may be approved and effected by the Carnival board
without the approval of Carnival shareholders or P&O Princess shareholders.

If a mandatory exchange is triggered, the articles of incorporation and the
by-laws will be automatically amended upon completion of the mandatory
exchange, without any further action of Carnival or the shareholders of
Carnival to conform to the articles of incorporation and by-laws of Carnival
prior to the implementation of the DLC structure. See "Proposal 1--The Offer
and Implementation Agreement--Mandatory Exchange".

Stock Class Rights

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, any change to the rights of holders of Carnival common
stock or any series of preferred stock requires an amendment to the Carnival
articles of incorporation. Panamanian law provides that the holders of shares
of a class or series will be entitled to vote as a class upon a proposed
amendment if the amendment consists in any change in the preference of the
outstanding shares of any class, or would authorize the issuance of shares with
preferences which are in any respect superior to those of outstanding shares of
any class.

Under its current articles of incorporation, Carnival has the right to issue
shares of common stock and shares of preferred stock for such consideration and
for such corporate purposes as the board of directors may from time to time
determine. The shares of authorized common stock shall be identical in all
respects and have equal rights and privileges. The shares of preferred stock
may be issued from time to time in one or more series of any number of shares,
provided that the aggregate number of shares issued and not canceled of any and
all such series shall not exceed the total number of shares of preferred stock
authorized, and with distinctive serial designations, all as shall be stated
and expressed in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such
shares of preferred stock. Each series of shares of preferred stock:

..  may have such voting powers, full or limited, or may be without voting
   powers;

                                      97



..  may be subject to redemption at such time or times and at such prices;

..  may be entitled to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or
   non-cumulative) at such rate or rates, in such consideration (including,
   without limitation, shares of capital stock), on such conditions and at such
   times, and payable in preference to, or in such relation to, the dividends
   payable on any other class or classes or series of stock;

..  may have such rights upon the dissolution of, or upon any distribution of
   the assets of Carnival;

..  may be made convertible into or exchangeable for, shares of any other class
   or classes or of any other series of the same or any other class or classes
   of shares of Carnival or any other person at such price or prices or at such
   rates of exchange and with such adjustments;

..  may be entitled to the benefit of a sinking fund to be applied to the
   purchase or redemption of shares of such series in such amount or amounts;

..  may be entitled to the benefit of conditions and restrictions upon the
   creation of indebtedness of Carnival or any subsidiary, upon the issue of
   any additional shares (including additional shares of such series or of any
   other series) and upon the payment of dividends or the making of other
   distributions on, and the purchase, redemption or other acquisition by
   Carnival or any subsidiary of, any outstanding shares of Carnival; and

..  may have such other relative, participating, optional or other special
   rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions, all as shall be stated
   in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such shares of
   preferred stock.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation
regarding stock class rights, except that the proposed articles of
incorporation provide that the holders of shares of Carnival common stock be
entitled, in accordance with the Equalization and Governance Agreement and to
the exclusion of the holders of shares of preferred stock, to receive such
dividends as from time to time may be declared by the board of directors,
except as otherwise provided by the resolution or resolutions providing for the
issue of any series of shares of preferred stock.

Rights of Inspection

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law does not regulate the right to inspect the corporate books and
records. Any shareholder may inspect the corporation's stock ledger, a list of
its shareholders and its other books and records and make copies or extracts of
those materials during normal business hours, subject to applicable provisions,
if any, in the articles of incorporation or by-laws. The current by-laws of
Carnival provide that the board of directors will determine from time to time
whether, and if allowed, when and under what conditions and regulations the
accounts, books, minutes and other records of Carnival or any of them will be
open to the inspection of the shareholders. However, a shareholder holding at
least 5% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the corporation may
request the General Assembly of Shareholders to appoint auditors for
examination of the balance sheet, or the incorporation records of the
corporation, or the management thereof, but if such proposal is rejected, a
Judge may without further proceeding appoint such auditors.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, every Carnival shareholder will,
upon written demand stating the purpose thereof, have a right to inspect, in
person or by agent or attorney, during the usual

                                      98



hours of business, for a purpose reasonably related to his interests as a
shareholder, the share register, books of account, and minutes of all
proceedings, and make copies or extracts therefrom.

Classification of the Board of Directors

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law permits the articles of incorporation or the by-laws to provide
that directors be divided into one, two or three classes, with the term of
office of one class of directors to expire each year. Carnival's current
articles of incorporation do not provide for classification of its board of
directors and each member of the Carnival board is elected annually to serve
until the next annual meeting of shareholders.

After DLC transaction

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation
regarding classification of its board of directors.

Election of Directors

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law provides that the directors of a corporation will be elected in
such manner, at such place and in such time as the articles of incorporation or
the by-laws determine, and that vacancies existing in the board of directors
will be filled in the manner prescribed by the articles of incorporation or the
by-laws. If the directors are not elected on the day designated for that
purpose, the directors in office will continue to serve as such until their
respective successors are elected. Carnival's current by-laws provide that all
elections of directors be by written ballot and that directors be elected by a
plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders of shares entitled to
vote in the election of directors. Subject to the provisions of the articles of
incorporation, the number of directors is fixed by the by-laws of the
corporation. Carnival's current articles of incorporation provide that the
number of directors be no less than three and no more than 17. Within said
minimum and maximum, the total number of directors may be fixed from time to
time by action of the shareholders or by action of the board. A change in the
minimum and maximum number of directors will require an amendment to the
articles.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, resolutions relating to the
appointment, removal and re-election of directors will be considered as a joint
electorate action and voted upon by the shareholders of each company
effectively voting together as a single decision-making body. The number of
directors will be a minimum of three and a maximum of 25. No person may be
elected or appointed to serve on the Carnival board unless that person is also
elected to be a member of the P&O Princess board. Any director of Carnival who
resigns from the Carnival board must also resign from the P&O Princess board
and vice versa.

Removal of Directors

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law provides that a director may be removed with or without cause by
the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares entitled to vote at an
election of directors. The by-laws of Carnival provide that any director may be
removed at any time, with or without cause, only by the affirmative vote of
holders of a majority of the shares of the class of common stock which elected
them.

                                      99



After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, subject to the provisions of
Panamanian law, directors may be removed with or without cause only by a
majority vote of a quorum of the shareholders.

Vacancies on the Board of Directors

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, vacancies existing in the board of directors will be
filled in the manner prescribed by the company's articles of incorporation or
the by-laws. Subject to the foregoing, the following vacancies may be filled by
a vote of a majority of the directors then in office: (1) vacancies on a board
of directors; and (2) newly created directorships resulting from an increase in
the authorized number of directors. However, if the holders of any specific
class of stock are entitled to elect directors, vacancies and newly created
directorships of the class may only be filled by a majority of the directors
elected by the class. If the board increases the number of directors, any
vacancy so created may be filled by the board.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, vacancies on the board of
directors will be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even
though less than a quorum, provided that any such person is appointed to both
the Carnival board and the P&O Princess board at the same time. If only one
director remains in office, the director will have the power to fill all
vacancies. If there are no directors, the Secretary of Carnival may call a
meeting at the request of any two shareholders for the purpose of appointing
one or more directors.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Before DLC transaction

Panamanian law does not specifically address the issue of indemnification of
directors and officers. Carnival may indemnify any officer or director who is
made a party to any suit or proceeding on account of being a director, officer
or employee of the corporation against expenses, including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred by him/her
in connection with the action, through, among other things, a majority vote of
a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the suit or proceeding
if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner he/she
reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation. In a
criminal proceeding, the standard is that the director or officer had no
reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful.

Carnival's articles of incorporation and by-laws provide that Carnival will
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he
is or was a director or an officer of Carnival against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding
to the fullest extent and in the manner set forth in and permitted by the
General Corporation Law of Panama, and any other applicable law, as from time
to time in effect. This right of indemnification is not exclusive of any other
rights to which a director or officer may be entitled. Any repeal or
modification of the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of
Panama will not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to
any state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or
proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in
part upon any such state of facts.

                                      100



In addition, Carnival's current articles of incorporation provide that Carnival
may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a
party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact
that he is or was an employee or agent of Carnival, or is or was serving at the
request of Carnival as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding to the extent and in the manner set forth in and
permitted by the General Corporation Law of the Republic of Panama, and any
other applicable law, as from time to time in effect. Such right of
indemnification is not exclusive of any other rights to which any such person
may be entitled. Carnival is authorized to purchase and maintain insurance in
respect of its indemnification obligations.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, the indemnification provisions in
Carnival's articles of incorporation will be amended to reflect the fact that
Carnival's directors and officers will also serve as directors and/or officers
of P&O Princess. Accordingly:

Each person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, by reason of the
fact that such person is or was a director or an officer of Carnival or P&O
Princess or is or was serving at the request of Carnival or P&O Princess as a
director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, shall be indemnified and held harmless by Carnival against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding to the fullest extent and in the manner set forth in
and permitted by Panamanian law, and any other applicable law, as from time to
time in effect. Carnival will continue to have the power to purchase and
maintain insurance in respect of its indemnification obligations.

A member of the board of directors, or a member of any committee designated by
the board of directors, will, in the performance of his duties, be fully
protected in relying in good faith upon the records of Carnival or P&O Princess
and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to
Carnival by any of Carnival's or P&O Princess' officers or employees, or
committees of the board of directors, or by any other person as to matters the
member reasonably believes are within such other person's professional or
expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on
behalf of Carnival. In discharging their duties, directors and officers, when
acting in good faith, may rely upon financial statements of Carnival or P&O
Princess represented to them to be correct by the chief financial officer or
the controller or other officer of Carnival or P&O Princess having charge of
its books or accounts, or stated in a written report by an independent public
or certified public account or firm of such accountants fairly to reflect the
financial condition of Carnival or P&O Princess.

Takeover Restrictions

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, directors are responsible for the good management and in
general for the execution or faulty fulfillment of their obligations to
administer the corporation's affairs. There is limited legislative or judicial
guidance on takeover issues in Panama and it is difficult to anticipate how a
Panamanian court will react or resolve a matter concerning application of a
policy of judicial deference to board of directors decisions to adopt
anti-takeover measures in the face of a potential takeover where the directors
are able to show that (1) they had reasonable grounds for believing that there
was a danger to corporate policy and effectiveness from an acquisition proposal
and (2) the board action taken was reasonable in relation to the threat posed.
Before the DLC transaction, Carnival was not subject to the UK Takeover Code.

                                      101



In order for Carnival to qualify as a publicly-traded company under Section 883
of the Internal Revenue Code, Carnival's articles also contain restrictions
that prevent any person(s) (other than the Arison family and its permitted
transferees) from acquiring beneficial ownership of more than 4.9% of Carnival
shares.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, the articles of incorporation of
Carnival will contain provisions which would apply to any person, or group of
persons acting in concert, that acquires shares in the Combined Group which
would trigger a mandatory offer obligation as if the UK Takeover Code applied
to the Combined Group on a combined basis. Where:

..   a person or group of persons acquired, or acquires voting rights over 30%
    or more of the combined votes which would be cast on a joint electorate
    action; or

..   any person or group of persons that already holds not less than 30% but not
    more than 50% of the combined votes which would be cast on a joint
    electorate action, acquired, or acquires voting rights over, any shares
    which increase the percentage of votes which such person(s) could cast on a
    joint electorate action,

such shares acquired would be disenfranchised (that is, the owner of those
shares could cease to have any economic or voting rights on those shares)
unless an offer for all the shares in the Combined Group at a price equivalent
to that applicable to the acquisition has been made by the person or group.
These takeover restrictions would not apply to:

..   acquisitions of shares of the other company by either P&O Princess or
    Carnival;

..   if the restrictions are prohibited by applicable law and regulations;

..   any acquisition by the Arison family and certain trusts for their benefit
    within the thresholds described below; and

..   any acquisition pursuant to a mandatory exchange.

There are certain exceptions to these provisions in the case of the Arison
family and trusts for their benefit which together will hold approximately 35%
of the equity of the Combined Group immediately following implementation of the
DLC structure. The Arison family and certain trusts for their benefit can
acquire shares in the Combined Group without triggering these provisions
provided that, as a result, their aggregate holdings do not increase by more
than 1% of the voting power of the Combined Group in any period of 12
consecutive months, subject to their combined holdings not exceeding 40% of the
voting power of the Combined Group. However, these parties may acquire
additional shares or voting power without being subject to these restrictions
if they comply with the offer requirement described above. These restrictions
do not apply to acquisitions of shares by either P&O Princess or Carnival.

The 4.9% ownership threshold will remain in place following the DLC
transaction. While both the mandatory offer protection and 4.9% protection
remain in place, no third party other than the Arison family and certain trusts
for their benefit will be able to acquire control of the Combined Group.

Liquidation

Before DLC transaction

Under Panamanian law, if the board of directors deems it advisable that the
corporation be dissolved, it is to propose by a majority of the votes of the
members thereof an Agreement of Dissolution and within 10 days shall call or
cause to be called, in accordance with law, a meeting of stockholders, to vote
on the resolution passed by the board of directors proposing the dissolution.
At the stockholders' meeting, the holders of a majority of shares with voting
rights on the matter can adopt the resolution for the

                                      102



dissolution of the company. The dissolution of the company may also be adopted
by written consent in lieu of meeting of the holders of all shares having
voting power. Carnival's current articles of incorporation and by-laws do not
address liquidation.

After DLC transaction

Following completion of the DLC transaction, in the event of a voluntary or
involuntary liquidation of Carnival, to the extent assets are available for
distribution, Carnival is to ensure that the holders of Carnival common stock
and P&O Princess ordinary shares will be entitled to a liquidation distribution
which is equivalent on a per share basis in accordance with the equalization
ratio then in effect and disregarding any tax consequences.

In giving effect to the principles regarding a liquidation of Carnival,
Carnival may:

..   make a payment to P&O Princess in accordance with the provisions of the
    Equalization and Governance Agreement;

..   issue shares to P&O Princess or to holders of P&O Princess ordinary shares
    and make a distribution or return on such shares; or

..   take any other action that the boards of directors of each of Carnival and
    P&O Princess consider appropriate to give effect to such principles.

Any action other than a payment of cash by one company to the other company
will require the prior approval of the board of directors of each company.

                                      103

Other Key Provisions of the Offer and Implementation Agreement

Conduct of business

Each of P&O Princess and Carnival have undertaken customary covenants that
place restrictions on it and its subsidiaries until the completion of the DLC
transaction. In general, the P&O Princess group and the Carnival group are
required to conduct their respective businesses in the usual, regular and
ordinary course and to use their reasonable best efforts to preserve materially
intact their business organizations and present lines of business, to maintain
commercially reasonable insurance, to maintain their material rights and
franchises and preserve their existing material relationships with third
parties. P&O Princess and Carnival may, nevertheless, undertake the following
actions: internal reorganizations that are not reasonably likely to have a
material adverse effect on the company undertaking such reorganization; the
purchase, sale or charter of any vessels or amendment to or termination of
existing shipbuild contracts; making other acquisitions or investments for
consideration,

                                      106



when offset against any divestments, not to exceed $500 million in the
aggregate; and making any divestments the net proceeds of which do not exceed
$500 million.

P&O Princess and Carnival have also agreed to various specific restrictions
that are substantially reciprocal relating to the conduct of their respective
businesses. These restrictions relate to, among other things, amendments to
governing documents, issuances of shares, changes in capitalization, payment of
dividends, incurrence of indebtedness and the entering into of non-competition
agreements.

The parties have also agreed to adjust the equalization ratio in the manner
provided in the Equalization and Governance Agreement for all actions occurring
prior to the effective time of the DLC transaction that would require an
automatic adjustment if such agreement were in force during such period, except
that there will be no adjustments for regular dividends declared prior to the
effective time.

Information and cooperation

The Offer and Implementation Agreement contains mutual covenants relating to
cooperation and consultation with respect to necessary filings with
governmental entities, access to information of the other party and public
announcements with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Offer and
Implementation Agreement.

Shareholder meetings

The Offer and Implementation Agreement contains mutual covenants relating to
the preparation of this proxy statement/prospectus and the other prospectus and
circular relating to the DLC transaction and the holding of the P&O Princess
extraordinary general meeting and the Carnival special meeting as soon as
possible to obtain shareholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the
Offer and Implementation Agreement.

Corporate governance

Following the DLC transaction, the board of directors of each of P&O Princess
and Carnival will consist of 13 directors. The proposed directors of Carnival
and P&O Princess following implementation of the DLC structure are listed under
"Directors and Executive Officers of the Combined Group".

Declaration and payment of dividends

P&O Princess and Carnival have agreed that, until the DLC transaction is
completed, each company will only pay regular quarterly dividends. The parties
have agreed to coordinate declaration of dividends so that neither company's
shareholders will receive two dividends, or fail to receive one dividend, in
respect of the quarter in which the DLC transaction is completed.

Representations and warranties

The Offer and Implementation Agreement contains substantially reciprocal
representations and warranties of P&O Princess and Carnival relating to their
respective businesses that are customary in business combination transactions.
Certain representations and warranties are qualified by a material adverse
effect standard, which for purposes of the Offer and Implementation Agreement,
means a material adverse effect on:

..   the financial condition, results of operations, assets or business of the
    relevant party and its subsidiaries;

..   the ability of the relevant party to perform its obligations under the
    Offer and Implementation Agreement; or

                                      107



..   the completion of the DLC transaction or implementation of the transactions
    contemplated by the Offer and Implementation Agreement.

With the exception of the representation regarding corporate authority and
approval of the transactions contemplated by the Offer and Implementation
Agreement, the representations in the Offer and Implementation Agreement do not
survive termination of the Offer and Implementation Agreement or the completion
of the DLC transaction.

Directors' indemnification

P&O Princess has agreed to indemnify the directors of Carnival in relation to
any personal liability arising from information provided (or which should have
been provided) by P&O Princess in connection with certain public documents to
be published by Carnival relating to the DLC proposal. Similarly, Carnival has
agreed to indemnify P&O Princess directors on a similar basis in connection
with certain public documents to be published by P&O Princess relating to the
DLC proposal.

Partial Share Offer

The Offer and Implementation Agreement contains certain provisions agreed by
the parties relating to the making, terms and conduct of the Partial Share
Offer.

Termination of the Offer and Implementation Agreement

The Offer and Implementation Agreement may be terminated, and the DLC
transaction abandoned, before the DLC transaction is scheduled to be completed
if the P&O Princess board and Carnival board mutually agree to do so. In
addition, the Offer and Implementation Agreement may be terminated, and the DLC
transaction abandoned by action of either the P&O Princess board and Carnival
board, as applicable, if:

..  the DLC transaction is not completed by September 30, 2003;

..  any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a
   final, non-appealable order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise
   prohibiting the completion of the DLC transaction or materially adversely
   affecting the DLC transaction;

..  the shareholders of either party fail to approve the DLC transaction at the
   relevant shareholders' meeting called for the purpose of considering and
   voting upon the DLC transaction and other transactions necessary to complete
   the DLC transaction;

..  the board of directors of the other party, at any time prior to the
   shareholders' meetings, withdraws or adversely modifies its approval or
   recommendation of the DLC transaction or shall have resolved to take such
   action, or shall have failed to reconfirm such approval or recommendation at
   the request of the other party;

..  the board of directors of the other party has recommended a superior
   acquisition proposal to its shareholders; or

..  the other party materially breaches any representation, warranty, covenant
   or agreement contained in the Offer and Implementation Agreement that causes
   the failure of certain conditions to closing and such breach cannot be or
   has not been cured prior to termination.

Neither party may terminate the Offer and Implementation Agreement, if that
party has breached in any material respect its obligations under the Offer and
Implementation Agreement and such breach contributed to the failure of the DLC
transaction to be completed.

                                      108



If the Offer and Implementation Agreement is terminated, it will become void
and there will be no liability on the part of P&O Princess or Carnival, except
that:

..  termination will not relieve a breaching party from liability for any breach
   of the Offer and Implementation Agreement; and

..  termination will not relieve a terminating party from its obligation to pay,
   if applicable, the break fee to the other party as described below.

P&O Princess will be obligated to pay Carnival a break fee of $49.4 million,
representing 1% of P&O Princess' market capitalization at the close of business
on January 7, 2003, if the Offer and Implementation Agreement is terminated:

..  by either P&O Princess or Carnival as a result of P&O Princess failing to
   obtain shareholder approval of the DLC transaction and, at the time of such
   failure, an acquisition proposal existed with respect to P&O Princess; or

..  by Carnival due to:

    -- the P&O Princess board withdrawing or adversely modifying, or resolving
       to withdraw or adversely modify, its approval or recommendation of the
       DLC transaction or failing to reconfirm such approval or recommendation;

    -- the P&O Princess board recommending a superior acquisition proposal to
       its shareholders; or

    -- P&O Princess having breached the no solicitation provisions described
       below,

and, a third party acquisition proposal with respect to P&O Princess is
completed within 18 months of the date of the Offer and Implementation
Agreement.

Carnival will be obligated to pay P&O Princess a break fee of $49.4 million,
representing 1% of P&O Princess' market capitalization at the close of business
on January 7, 2003 if the Offer and Implementation Agreement is terminated:

..  by either Carnival or P&O Princess as a result of Carnival failing to obtain
   shareholder approval of the DLC transaction and at the time of such failure,
   an acquisition proposal existed with respect to Carnival; or

..  by P&O Princess due to:

    -- the Carnival board withdrawing or adversely modifying, or resolving to
       withdraw or adversely modify, its approval or recommendation of the
       Offer and Implementation Agreement and the DLC transaction, or failing
       to reconfirm such approval or recommendation;

    -- the Carnival board recommending a superior acquisition proposal to its
       shareholders; or

    -- Carnival having breached the no solicitation covenants described below,

and a third-party acquisition proposal with respect to Carnival is completed
within 18 months of the date of the Offer and Implementation Agreement

No Solicitation

P&O Princess and Carnival have also agreed that they and their respective
subsidiaries will not, and they will use their reasonable best efforts to cause
their respective representatives and subsidiaries' representatives not to,
directly or indirectly, initiate, solicit, encourage or otherwise facilitate
any inquiries or any proposal or offer relating to a merger, acquisition or
other business combination transaction involving the acquisition of 15% or more
of the assets or equity securities of P&O Princess or Carnival. P&O Princess
and Carnival have also agreed not to have any discussions with or provide any
confidential information to any person relating to an acquisition proposal or
otherwise facilitate any

                                      109



effort or attempt to make an acquisition proposal, except as described below.
If a bona fide unsolicited written acquisition proposal is made to P&O Princess
or Carnival, that party can negotiate and furnish information in connection
with such proposal and recommend such proposal to its shareholders if (i) its
board of directors determines in good faith after consultation with outside
legal counsel that such action is required by its fiduciary duties, and (ii)
the proposal is on terms which the board of directors determines, after
consultation with its financial advisers and after giving the other party 10
business days to respond to such proposal, is more favorable from a financial
point of view to its shareholders than the DLC transaction, is reasonably
likely to be completed, and which relates to at least a majority of the assets
or voting power of the applicable company. P&O Princess and Carnival have
agreed that they will immediately advise each other following the receipt of
any acquisition proposal.

Mandatory Exchange

In certain limited circumstances following implementation of the DLC structure,
P&O Princess shares may be subject to a mandatory exchange for Carnival shares
at the then prevailing equalization ratio. Upon a mandatory exchange, P&O
Princess shareholders would no longer hold their investment in the Combined
Group in the form of P&O Princess shares listed on the LSE, but would instead
hold their investment in the form of Carnival shares listed on the NYSE. A
mandatory exchange would occur if there is a change in applicable tax laws,
rules or regulations or their application or interpretation, and, based on a
legal opinion and after using commercially reasonable efforts to explore
available alternatives, and the P&O Princess board shall have reasonably
determined that:

..  the change is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the
   Combined Group being considered as a single enterprise;

..  it is reasonably likely that the material adverse effect would be eliminated
   or substantially reduced by a mandatory exchange; and

..  the material adverse effect could not be substantially eliminated by any
   commercially reasonable alternative to a mandatory exchange,

and the mandatory exchange is approved by two-thirds of the shareholders of P&O
Princess and Carnival voting on a joint electorate action.

A mandatory exchange would also occur if:

..  there is a change in the applicable non-tax laws, rules or regulations or
   their application or interpretation, as a result of which the P&O Princess
   board has reasonably determined and having received a legal opinion, that it
   is reasonably likely that all or a substantial portion of the documents
   required to implement the DLC structure are unlawful, illegal or
   unenforceable; or

..  a court or other governmental entity has issued a ruling, judgement, decree
   or order, which has been appealed to the extent the P&O Princess board deems
   reasonably appropriate, holding that all or a substantial portion of the DLC
   documents are unlawful, illegal or unenforceable,

and the P&O Princess board, based on a legal opinion and after using
commercially reasonable efforts to explore the available alternatives to the
mandatory exchange, has reasonably determined that:

..  the legal basis for the illegality or unenforceability would be eliminated
   by a mandatory exchange;

..  the illegality or unenforceability could not be eliminated by amendments to
   the documents required to implement the DLC structure that would not
   materially and adversely affect the rights of the shareholders of P&O
   Princess and Carnival, taken together or in relation to each other;

..  the change in law or the ruling, judgment, decree or order is reasonably
   likely to be enforced in a way that will have a material adverse effect on
   the Combined Group; and

                                      110



..  the P&O Princess board decides to effect a mandatory exchange.

Carnival will execute the Carnival Corporation Deed for the benefit of P&O
Princess shareholders in respect of its obligations to effect a mandatory
exchange under the P&O Princess articles on the basis described above. The
Carnival Corporation Deed will automatically terminate in the following
circumstances:

..  termination of the Equalization and Governance Agreement;

..  completion of a mandatory exchange;

..  a resolution is passed for the liquidation of the whole or substantially the
   whole of P&O Princess; or

..  the mandatory exchange provisions in the P&O Princess articles are properly
   deleted.

Governing Law of the Offer and Implementation Agreement

The Offer and Implementation Agreement will be governed by New York law.

The Equalization and Governance Agreement

General Principles

The Equalization and Governance Agreement, which will be the contractual
relationship between Carnival and P&O Princess that governs the treatment of
the two companies as if they were a single economic enterprise following
implementation of the DLC structure, embodies the following DLC principles:

..  Carnival and P&O Princess will operate as if they were a single economic
   enterprise, through identical boards of directors and a single senior
   executive management;

..  the directors of Carnival and P&O Princess will be entitled to have regard
   to the interests of both groups of shareholders and both companies of the
   Combined Group;

..  the capital of the Combined Group will be deployed and managed in the most
   effective way for the benefit of the shareholders of the Combined Group;

..  voting on matters to be considered by the Combined Group's shareholders will
   be undertaken in accordance with the P&O Princess articles, the Carnival
   articles and by-laws and the SVE Special Voting Deed; and

..  no person will be permitted to obtain control over Carnival or P&O Princess
   without making a comparable takeover offer for the other company. Subject to
   compliance with these provisions, a person, together with any concert party,
   may (a) acquire, or acquire voting rights over, 30% or more of the combined
   votes which could be cast on a joint electorate action; or (b) if such
   person already holds not less than 30%, but not more than 50%, of the
   combined votes which could be cast as a joint electorate action, acquire
   voting rights over any shares which increase the percentage of votes which
   such person(s) could cast on a joint electorate action.

The Equalization and Governance Agreement will be entered into by Carnival and
P&O Princess at closing of the DLC transaction and will be the primary
agreement governing the ongoing relationship of Carnival and P&O Princess as
dual listed companies operating as if they were a single economic enterprise in
the Combined Group.

                                      111



Restrictions on Buy-Backs and Share Issuances

During the first two years after the date of the Equalization and Governance
Agreement neither company will be able to:

..  purchase any P&O Princess shares (except those P&O Princess shares acquired
   by Carnival pursuant to the Partial Share Offer); nor

..  issue any shares (or other shares carrying voting rights or securities
   convertible into shares carrying voting rights) to any member of the P&O
   Princess group and/or the Carnival group (other than as part of pre-emptive
   issue to all shareholders of either Carnival or P&O Princess or the issue of
   an equalization share).

The restrictions referred to above will apply from the second anniversary until
the fifth anniversary of the date of the Equalization and Governance Agreement
except that Carnival will be permitted to purchase up to 5% of the issued P&O
Princess shares (and other shares carrying voting rights) during each 12 month
period commencing after the second anniversary of the date of the Equalization
and Governance Agreement and each company shall be entitled to issue shares, up
to an aggregate of 5% of its outstanding or issued share capital (or other
shares carrying voting rights or securities convertible into shares carrying
voting rights) to any member of the P&O Princess group and/or the Carnival
group during each 12 month period commencing after the second anniversary of
the date of the Equalization and Governance Agreement. All such restrictions
lapse on the fifth anniversary of the date of the Equalization and Governance
Agreement.

Disenfranchisement

All P&O Princess shares acquired by any member of the Carnival group, whether
as a result of the Partial Share Offer or otherwise, will automatically lose
the right to attend or vote at any general meeting or class meeting of P&O
Princess, unless the Carnival group beneficially owns 90% or more of P&O
Princess shares, or to receive liquidation distributions.

Liquidation

Under the Equalization and Governance Agreement, the Carnival articles and the
P&O Princess articles, the provisions described below will apply on the
insolvency of either or both companies. These provisions are intended to ensure
that, as far as practicable, the shareholders of the Combined Group are treated
equitably in the event of insolvency of either or both companies and in
accordance with the equalization ratio.

One or both companies insolvent

If either or both of Carnival and/or P&O Princess goes into liquidation,
Carnival and P&O Princess will make and receive such payments or take such
other actions required to ensure that the holders of shares of each company
would, had each entity gone into liquidation on the same date, be entitled to
receive a distribution which is equivalent on a per share basis in accordance
with the equalization ratio then in effect, based on the prevailing U.S.
dollar/pound sterling exchange rate (or such other exchange rate agreed by the
P&O Princess board and Carnival board (or the liquidators of the relevant
companies)) and ignoring any tax on, or tax benefit of, any shareholder. To
establish the amount payable, each company will determine the amount of assets
(if any) it will have available for distribution on the date of liquidation (or
notional date of liquidation) to shareholders after payment of all its debts
and other financial obligations including any tax costs associated with such
payment and any payments due on any preference shares. To the extent one
company has greater net assets so that any liquidation distribution to its
shareholders would not be equivalent on a per share basis (in accordance with
the equalization ratio then in effect based on the applicable exchange rate,
but ignoring any tax on, or tax benefit of, a shareholder) to the amount that
could be paid by the other

                                      112



company, the first company will pay or make a balancing payment (or take other
balancing action described below) in such amount as will ensure that, after
payment of any tax liability in respect of the balancing payment or other
action by the companies, both companies make equivalent liquidation payments;
provided always that neither company need make a balancing payment if it would
result in no holders of Carnival shares or P&O Princess shares being entitled
to receive any distribution of property or cash whatsoever.

Balancing action

In giving effect to the principle regarding a liquidation of Carnival and/or
P&O Princess described above, Carnival and P&O Princess will take such action
as may be required to give effect to that principle, which may include:

..  making a payment (of cash or in specie) to the other company;

..  issuing shares (which may include the equalization share) to the other
   company or to holders of shares of the other company and making any
   distribution or return on such shares; or

..  taking any other action that Carnival and P&O Princess consider appropriate
   to give effect to that principle.

Any action other than a payment of cash by one company to the other shall
require the prior approval of the boards of both companies.

Combination

In any combination of Carnival and P&O Princess into a single, non-DLC
structure, the consideration to be received by the shareholders of the two
companies will be calculated by reference to the equalization ratio then in
effect.

Termination of the Equalization and Governance Agreement

The Equalization and Governance Agreement may be terminated:

..  if either Carnival or P&O Princess has become a wholly owned subsidiary of
   the other (including as a result of a mandatory exchange);

..  by mutual agreement of Carnival and P&O Princess and approved as a class
   rights action; or

..  after all liquidation obligations have been satisfied.

In any other circumstances of termination of the DLC structure, the Carnival
board and P&O Princess board will use their reasonable endeavours to agree to a
termination proposal to be put to their shareholders which those boards
consider to be equitable to both the holders of Carnival shares and the holders
of P&O Princess shares, at the equalization ratio then in effect and using a
currency exchange rate agreed by the parties (or, failing which, an exchange
rate determined by an independent accounting firm). If the Carnival board and
P&O Princess board cannot agree on the proposal to be put to their respective
shareholders then each board will appoint an independent accounting firm to
establish the value of its company as of the proposed date of termination. The
two accounting firms will use the same principles of valuation. If the
accounting firms fail to agree on each other's valuation for the other company,
then a third independent accounting firm shall be appointed to finally
determine the values of both companies. If the agreed/determined respective
values of each company on a per share basis (using the applicable exchange
rate) are not in a proportion that reflects the equalization ratio at the
proposed date of termination, then a balancing payment, or other equivalent
action agreed by the companies, will be made by one company to the other as
appropriate as will ensure that, after payment of any tax liability by either
company in respect of such balancing payment (or other action), such values are
in a proportion that reflects the equalization ratio.

                                      113



In the event of any conflict between the Equalization and Governance Agreement,
on the one hand, and either the P&O Princess memorandum and articles or the
Carnival articles of incorporation and by-laws, on the other hand, the parties
will use their best endeavours to ensure that any required amendment to the P&O
Princess memorandum and articles or the Carnival articles of incorporation and
by-laws, as is appropriate, is proposed at shareholder meetings of P&O Princess
and/or Carnival in order to conform the relevant governing document with the
provisions of the Equalization and Governance Agreement.

Governing Law of Equalization and Governance Agreement

The Equalization and Governance Agreement will be governed by the laws of the
Isle of Man.

Equalization Ratio

In order to effect the relative rights of Carnival shares and P&O Princess
shares, the Combined Group will be operated under the following DLC
equalization principles:

..  the equalization ratio will effectively govern the proportion in which
   distributions of income and capital are made to the holders of Carnival
   shares relative to the holders of P&O Princess shares (and vice versa) and
   the relative voting rights of the holders of Carnival shares and the holders
   of P&O Princess shares on joint electorate actions. Immediately after
   completion of the DLC transaction and the P&O Princess share reorganization,
   a holder of one Carnival share will effectively have the same right to
   distributions of income and capital and rights as to voting in relation to
   joint electorate actions as the holder of one P&O Princess share;

..  issuances of or transactions affecting the share capital of Carnival or P&O
   Princess will be implemented in a way which will not give rise to a
   materially different financial effect as between the interests of the
   holders of Carnival shares and the interests of the holders of P&O Princess
   shares. If any such issue or transaction involves any of the following:

    -- a rights issue of shares at less than market value;

    -- an offer of any securities, or a grant of any options, warrants or other
       rights to subscribe for, purchase or sell any securities, to
       shareholders by way of rights;

    -- non-cash distributions to shareholders and share repurchases involving
       an offer made to all or substantially all of the shareholders of a
       company to repurchase their shares at a premium to market value;

    -- a consolidation or subdivision of shares; or

    -- an issue of shares to shareholders for no consideration or solely by way
       of capitalization of profits or reserves,

then an automatic adjustment to the equalization ratio will occur as prescribed
in the Equalization and Governance Agreement, unless the Carnival board of
directors and P&O Princess board of directors, in their sole discretion,
undertake:

..  an offer or action which having regard to the then existing equalization
   ratio; the timing of the offer or action; and any other relevant
   circumstances, is in the reasonable opinion of the boards of Carnival and
   P&O Princess financially equivalent (but not necessarily identical) in
   respect of, on the one hand holders of Carnival shares, and on the other
   hand holders of P&O Princess shares, and does not materially disadvantage
   either company's shareholders, which we refer to as a "matching action"; or

..  an alternative to such automatic adjustment that has been approved as such
   by a class rights action.

Any adjustments to the equalization ratio will be communicated to shareholders
through a press release.

                                      114



The Carnival board and P&O Princess board will be under no obligation to
undertake any such matching action or to seek approval of an alternative as a
class rights action if any issue or transaction referred to above is not
covered by an automatic adjustment to the equalization ratio, then no automatic
adjustment to the equalization ratio will occur, but the Carnival board and P&O
Princess board shall have the right (in their sole discretion), but not the
obligation, to undertake a matching action, or to seek approval of an
adjustment to the equalization ratio as a class rights action.

No adjustment to the equalization ratio will be required in respect of:

..  scrip dividends or dividend reinvestments at market price;

..  issuances of P&O Princess shares or Carnival shares or securities
   convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such shares pursuant
   to employee share plans;

..  issuances of Carnival shares under Carnival's $600,000,000 2% Convertible
   Senior Debentures due 2021 and the $1,051,175,000 Liquid Yield Option
   Notes(TM) due 2021;

..  issuances of shares or securities convertible into, or exercisable or
   exchangeable for, such shares other than to all or substantially all
   shareholders of either company (including for acquisitions);

..  a buy-back or repurchase of any shares:

    -- in the market by means of an offer not open to all or substantially all
       shareholders of either company or in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under
       the Exchange Act;

    -- at or below market value;

    -- by either company pursuant to the provisions in such company's governing
       documents; or

    -- pro rata to the shareholders of the Combined Group at the same effective
       premium to the market price (taking into account the equalization ratio);

..  matching actions;

..  the issue of an equalization share by either company to the other; and

..  any purchase, cancellation or reduction of disenfranchized shares.

action. Upon termination of the SVE Special Voting Deed or if Carnival so
decides, the Carnival Special Voting Entity will transfer its special voting
share to a person notified to it in writing by the board. In addition, Carnival
can require the Carnival Special Voting Entity

                                      116



to transfer the special voting share to a new person (nominated by the Carnival
board) if it wants to replace the trustee company owning the shares in the
Carnival Special Voting Entity.

Governing Law of SVE Special Voting Deed

The SVE Special Voting Deed will be governed by the laws of the Isle of Man.

Deeds of Guarantee

At closing of the DLC transaction, Carnival and P&O Princess will each enter
into a Deed of Guarantee. The Deeds of Guarantee will be governed by the laws
of the Isle of Man.

Carnival Deed of Guarantee

Under the Offer and Implementation Agreement, we have agreed with P&O Princess
to execute the Carnival Deed of Guarantee at the completion of the DLC
transaction in respect of:

..  any contractual monetary obligations owed to creditors of P&O Princess
   incurred on or after completion;

..  any contractual monetary obligations of other persons, referred to as
   principal debtors, which are guaranteed by P&O Princess and are incurred on
   or after completion; and

..  any other obligation of any kind which may be agreed between the Carnival
   board and the P&O Princess board.

Pursuant to the Carnival Deed of Guarantee, we will guarantee the payment by
P&O Princess of such obligations and will undertake to pay on demand any
amounts due and in respect of such obligations if for any reason P&O Princess
does not make payment in respect of such obligations on their due date.

The obligations to be covered by the Carnival Deed of Guarantee exclude the
following obligations incurred by P&O Princess or by any principal debtor:

..  any non-monetary obligations;

..  obligations to the extent covered by the terms of any policy of insurance of
   which P&O Princess (or the principal debtor) has the benefit and which is in
   full force and effect;

..  any obligation explicitly guaranteed in writing by Carnival otherwise than
   under the Carnival Deed of Guarantee;

..  any obligation incurred under an arrangement which explicitly provides that
   the obligation is not to be guaranteed by Carnival;

..  obligations owed to Carnival or to any of its subsidiaries or subsidiary
   undertakings or to any subsidiary or subsidiary undertaking of P&O Princess;

..  obligations of P&O Princess under or in connection with any guarantee by P&O
   Princess of any obligation of Carnival or any subsidiary of Carnival;

..  obligations excluded from the scope of the Carnival Deed of Guarantee (see
   below); and

..  obligations of P&O Princess under a guarantee, or of any principal debtor
   guaranteed by that guarantee, to the extent that the guaranteed obligation
   is not a contractual monetary obligation or is of a type excluded as
   referred to above.

                                      117



Beneficiaries of the Carnival Deed of Guarantee may make demand upon Carnival
provided that any such beneficiary has first served a written demand on P&O
Princess and (to the extent, if any, that the terms of the relevant obligation
require such recourse) recourse first being had to any other person or security.

The Carnival Deed of Guarantee will automatically terminate if the Equalization
and Governance Agreement terminates or ceases to have effect or if the P&O
Princess Deed of Guarantee has terminated or ceased to have effect. We may also
terminate the Carnival Deed of Guarantee with the consent of P&O Princess (or
without their consent where P&O Princess is in liquidation) upon three months
notice. No termination of the Carnival Deed of Guarantee will be effective with
respect to any existing obligation subject to the guarantee (that is, an
obligation incurred before, or arising out of any credit or similar facility
available for use at, the time at which the termination becomes effective).

We may, with the agreement of P&O Princess, at any time exclude obligations of
a particular type, or a particular obligation or obligations, incurred after a
specified future time from the scope of the Carnival Deed of Guarantee. The
future time must, in the case of obligations of a particular type, be at least
three months after the date on which notice of the relevant exclusion is given
or, in the case of a particular obligation, at least five business days after
the date on which notice is given.

We may also amend the Carnival Deed of Guarantee, at any time and in any way,
with effect from the time of such amendment or such future time as it
determines. Any such amendment shall require the prior agreement of P&O
Princess, except where P&O Princess is in liquidation. No amendment will be
effective in respect of existing obligations, as referred to above.

We may agree in writing with P&O Princess at any time that any other obligation
of any kind, including existing indebtedness of Carnival or P&O Princess, be
treated as an obligation under the Carnival Deed of Guarantee.

Any notice to be given to creditors generally will be given by way of an
advertisement in one United Kingdom and one U.S. newspaper (usually the
Financial Times and The Wall Street Journal).

P&O Princess Deed of Guarantee

P&O Princess has agreed to execute a reciprocal guarantee for the benefit of
certain creditors of Carnival on parallel terms to those described above at
closing of the DLC transaction.

                                      118



                                  PROPOSAL 2

 APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO CARNIVAL'S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS IN
                      CONNECTION WITH THE DLC TRANSACTION

Amendments to certain provisions of our existing articles of incorporation and
by-laws are necessary in order to harmonize the governing documents of Carnival
and P&O Princess. Upon completion of the DLC transaction, equivalent changes
will be made to the governing documents of P&O Princess. These proposed
amendments depart from our existing articles of incorporation and by-laws in
areas such as the election and removal of directors, calling of shareholders'
meetings, quorum and the vote required to approve certain matters.

Set forth below is a summary of the proposed changes to Carnival's articles of
incorporation and by-laws. This summary is not complete and we encourage you to
refer to the relevant portions of the proposed Third Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation of Carnival, which are attached to this proxy
statement/prospectus as Annex A-4, and the proposed Amended and Restated
By-laws of Carnival, which are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex A-5, as well as the section of this proxy statement/prospectus called
"The DLC Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders".

Capitalization

Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares, of which
960,000,000 are shares of common stock and 40,000,000 are shares of preferred
stock. As of March 11, 2003, there were 586,972,729 shares of common stock and
no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

In connection with the DLC transaction, we are increasing our authorized
capital stock from 1,000,000,000 shares, including 960,000,000 shares of common
stock, to 2,000,000,000 shares, including 1,959,999,998 shares of common stock.
You are being asked to vote separately on increasing the number of shares of
common stock that we have the authority to issue by 999,999,998 shares
(Proposal 3). Our new articles of incorporation will also authorize one special
voting share and one equalization share.

Voting Rights

In connection with the DLC transaction, special voting arrangements will be
implemented so that the shareholders of Carnival and P&O Princess will vote
together as a single decision-making body on all actions submitted to a
shareholder vote other than matters designated as class rights actions or
resolutions on procedural or technical matters. The relative voting rights of
the P&O Princess shares and Carnival shares will be determined by the
equalization ratio. Based on an equalization ratio of 1:1, each Carnival share
will have the same voting rights as one P&O Princess share on joint electorate
actions.

In the case of class rights actions, the company wishing to carry out the class
rights action would require the prior approval of shareholders of both
companies, each voting separately as a class. If shareholders of either company
do not approve the action, it will fail. No resolution to approve a class
rights action or joint electorate action shall be approved unless a parallel
P&O Princess shareholders' meeting is held to vote on any equivalent
resolution. See "The DLC Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival
Shareholders--Voting Rights".

Disenfranchisement

All of our shares acquired by any member of the P&O Princess group will
automatically lose the right to attend or vote at any general meeting or class
meeting of Carnival, unless the P&O Princess group beneficially owns 90% or
more of our shares, or to receive liquidation distributions.

Special Voting Share

In connection with the DLC transaction, Carnival's articles of incorporation
will be amended to authorize one special voting share. Upon completion of the
DLC transaction, Carnival will issue a

                                      119



special voting share to the Carnival Special Voting Entity. At all meetings at
which a joint electorate action or a class rights action will be considered,
the holder of the Carnival special voting share must be present. See "The DLC
Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Special Voting Shares".

In connection with the DLC transaction, the articles of P&O Princess will also
be amended to authorize a special voting share. On completion of the DLC
transaction, the P&O Princess special voting share will be transferred to the
trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust. Trust shares of beneficial
interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust will be transferred to
Carnival. Immediately following this transfer, Carnival will distribute the
trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust by
way of dividend to Carnival shareholders of record at the close of business on
April 17, 2003. Separate certificates will not be issued to represent these
trust shares of beneficial interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust;
instead, the trust shares of beneficial interest will be paired with, and
evidenced by, certificates representing Carnival shares, as provided in the
pairing agreement. The provisions of the pairing agreement described under
"Special Voting Entities; Special Voting Shares--Pairing Agreement" will be
reflected in the Carnival articles.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival shares will trade in
units consisting of one Carnival share and one trust share of beneficial
interest in the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust.
Quorum Requirements

Following the DLC transaction, the presence in person or by proxy at any
meeting of Carnival shareholders holding at least one-third of the total votes
entitled to be cast will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at
such meeting, except as otherwise required by applicable law or regulation, the
articles of incorporation or the by-laws. You are being asked to vote
separately on the reduction in the quorum requirement for shareholder meetings
(Proposal 5). The quorum requirements for any meeting where a joint electorate
action or a class rights action is to be considered are discussed in the
section of this proxy statement/prospectus called "The DLC Transaction--Changes
in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Quorum Requirements".

Shareholder Action By Written Consent

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival's by-laws will provide
that Carnival shareholders will not have the ability to act by written consent.
You are being asked to vote separately on the removal of the ability of
shareholders to act by written consent (Proposal 6).

Standard of Conduct for Directors

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation or
by-laws regarding the standard of conduct for directors, except that following
completion of the DLC transaction, the board of directors will be authorized to
operate and carry into effect the Equalization and Governance Agreement, the
SVE Special Voting Deed and the Carnival Deed of Guarantee and, subject to
applicable laws and regulations, nothing done by any director in good faith
pursuant to such authority and obligations will constitute a breach of the
fiduciary duties of such director to Carnival or its shareholders. In
particular, the directors will, in addition to their duties to Carnival, be
entitled to consider the interests of the Carnival shareholders and the P&O
Princess shareholders as if Carnival and P&O Princess were a single entity.
Following completion of the DLC transaction, the boards of directors of
Carnival and P&O Princess will be identical.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

Following completion of the DLC transaction, the board of directors of each of
Carnival and P&O Princess will be identical. At all meetings of each board of
directors, the presence in person or by

                                      120



proxy, of at least one-third of the total number of directors will constitute a
quorum for the transaction of business except as may be otherwise specifically
provided by applicable law, the articles of incorporation or by-laws. You are
being asked to vote separately on the reduction in the quorum requirement for
board meetings (Proposal 4). The act of a simple majority of the directors
present in person or by proxy at any meeting at which there is a quorum will
constitute a valid act of the board of directors, except as may be otherwise
specifically provided by applicable law or regulation, the articles of
incorporation or by-laws.

General Meetings of Shareholders

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's by-laws regarding annual
meetings, except that following completion of the DLC transaction, written
notice of all meetings of shareholders must state the purpose of the meeting,
including whether a joint electorate or class rights action will be considered,
and the requirement that the annual meeting be held in March or April of each
year will be removed.

In addition, if Carnival proposes to undertake a joint electorate action or
class rights action, Carnival must immediately give notice to P&O Princess of
the nature of the joint electorate action or the class rights action it
proposes to take. Unless such action is proposed to be taken at the annual
meeting, the board of directors must convene a special meeting for the purpose
of considering a resolution to approve the joint electorate action or class
rights action. If Carnival receives notice from P&O Princess that P&O Princess
proposes to undertake a joint electorate action or a class rights action, the
Carnival board of directors must convene a meeting of Carnival shareholders as
close in time as practicable to the P&O Princess meeting and must propose an
equivalent resolution as that proposed at the P&O Princess meeting. Such
meeting will be held as close in time as practicable with the parallel
shareholder meeting convened by P&O Princess for purposes of considering such
joint electorate action or class rights action. Carnival must cooperate fully
with P&O Princess in preparing resolutions, explanatory memoranda or any other
information or material required in connection with the proposed joint
electorate action or class rights action. See "The DLC Transaction--Changes in
Rights of Carnival Shareholders--General Meetings of Shareholders".

Special Meetings of Shareholders

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation and
by-laws regarding special meetings, except to provide for the mechanics
relating to joint electorate and class rights actions. See "The DLC
Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Special Meetings of
Shareholders".

Sources and Payment of Dividends

Following completion of the DLC transaction, Carnival expects to continue to
pay quarterly dividends and there will be no change in the entitlement of
quarterly dividends for shareholders of either company. Carnival shareholders
and P&O Princess Shareholders will have rights to income and capital
distributions from the combined group based on the equalization ratio. In order
for the companies to pay a dividend or make a distribution, the ratio of
dividends and distributions paid per share of Carnival common stock to
dividends and distributions paid per P&O Princess ordinary share must equal the
equalization ratio, taking account the applicable currency exchange rate. See
"The DLC Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Sources and
Payments of Dividends".

Pre-emptive Rights

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation
regarding pre-emptive rights, except that pursuant to the Equalization and
Governance agreement, neither Carnival nor P&O Princess may issue any shares
carrying voting rights to the other or its subsidiaries (except on a
pre-emptive basis) during the first two years following the date of the
Equalization and Governance

                                      121



Agreement. Thereafter, until the fifth anniversary of the date of the
Equalization and Governance Agreement, neither Carnival nor P&O Princess may
issue more than 5% of its shares to the other or its subsidiaries (unless such
issuance is made on a pre-emptive basis) in any 12 month period.

Amendment of Governing Instruments

Following completion of the DLC transaction, any amendment to the provisions of
Carnival's amended articles of incorporation which entrench the DLC structure
will require approval as a class rights action. See "The DLC
Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Amendment of Governing
Instruments".

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment of the articles of incorporation
(1) to specify or change the location of the office or registered agent of
Carnival, or (2) to make, revoke or change the designation of a registered
agent, or to specify or change the registered agent, may be approved and
effected by the board of directors without the approval of the shareholders of
Carnival or the shareholders of P&O Princess.

Following completion of the DLC transaction, any amendment to or repeal of the
provisions of Carnival's by-laws which entrench the DLC structure will also
require approval as a class rights action. Any amendment to or repeal of any
by-law of Carnival other than any of the Carnival entrenched by-laws may be
approved and effected by the board of directors without the approval of the
shareholders of Carnival or the shareholders of P&O Princess. See "The DLC
Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Amendment of Governing
Instruments".

Upon completion of a mandatory exchange, the articles of incorporation and the
by-laws will be automatically amended without any further action of Carnival or
the shareholders of Carnival to conform to the articles of incorporation and
by-laws of Carnival prior to the implementation of the DLC structure. See "The
DLC Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Amendment of
Governing Instruments".

Stock Class Rights

No change is proposed to be made to Carnival's articles of incorporation
regarding stock class rights, except that the proposed articles of
incorporation provide that the holders of shares of Carnival common stock be
entitled, in accordance with the Equalization and Governance Agreement and to
the exclusion of the holders of shares of preferred stock, to receive such
dividends as from time to time may be declared by the board of directors,
except as otherwise provided by the resolution or resolutions providing for the
issue of any series of shares of preferred stock.

Rights of Inspection

Following completion of the DLC transaction, every Carnival shareholder will,
upon written demand stating the purpose thereof, have a right to inspect, in
person or by agent or attorney, during the usual hours of business, for a
purpose reasonably related to his interests as a shareholder, the share
register, books of account, and minutes of all proceedings, and make copies or
extracts therefrom.

Election of Directors

Following completion of the DLC transaction, resolutions relating to the
appointment, removal and re-election of directors will be considered as a joint
electorate action and voted upon by the shareholders of each company
effectively voting together as a single decision-making body. The number of
directors will be a minimum of three and a maximum of 25. No person may be
elected or appointed to serve on

                                      122



the Carnival board unless that person is also elected to be a member of the P&O
Princess board. Any director of Carnival who resigns from the Carnival board
must also resign from the P&O Princess board.

Removal of Directors

Following completion of the DLC transaction, subject to the provisions of
Panamanian law, directors may be removed with or without cause only by a
majority vote of a quorum of the shareholders.

Vacancies on the Board of Directors

Following completion of the DLC transaction, vacancies on the board of
directors will be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even
though less than a quorum, provided that any such person is appointed to both
the Carnival board and the P&O Princess board at the same time. If only one
director remains in office, the director will have the power to fill all
vacancies. If there are no directors, the Secretary of Carnival may call a
meeting at the request of any two shareholders for the purpose of appointing
one or more directors.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Following completion of the DLC transaction:

Each person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, by reason of the
fact that such person is or was a director or an officer of Carnival or P&O
Princess or is or was serving at the request of Carnival or P&O Princess as a
director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, shall be indemnified and held harmless by Carnival against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding to the fullest extent and in the manner set forth in
and permitted by Panamanian law, and any other applicable law, as from time to
time in effect. Carnival will continue to have the power to purchase and
maintain insurance in respect of its indemnification obligations.

A member of the board of directors, or a member of any committee designated by
the board of directors, will, in the performance of his duties, be fully
protected in relying in good faith upon the records of Carnival or P&O Princess
and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to
Carnival by any of Carnival's or P&O Princess' officers or employees, or
committees of the board of directors, or by any other person as to matters the
member reasonably believes are within such other person's professional or
expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on
behalf of Carnival. In discharging their duties, directors and officers, when
acting in good faith, may rely upon financial statements of Carnival or P&O
Princess represented to them to be correct by the chief financial officer or
the controller or other officer of Carnival or P&O Princess having charge of
its books or accounts, or stated in a written report by an independent public
or certified public account or firm of such accountants fairly to reflect the
financial condition of Carnival or P&O Princess.

Takeover Restrictions

Following completion of the DLC transaction, the articles of incorporation of
Carnival will contain provisions which would apply to any person, or group of
persons acting in concert, that acquires shares in the Combined Group which
would trigger a mandatory offer obligation as if the UK Takeover Code applied
to the Combined Group on a combined basis. See "The DLC Transaction--Changes in
Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Takeover Restrictions".

                                      123



Carnival's articles also contain restrictions that prevent any person(s) (other
than the Arison family and its permitted transferees) from acquiring more than
4.9% of the beneficial ownership of Carnival shares. While both the mandatory
offer protection and 4.9% ownership threshold remain in place, no third party
other than the Arison family and trusts for their benefit will be able to
acquire control of the Combined Group.

Liquidation

Following completion of the DLC transaction, in the event of a voluntary or
involuntary liquidation of Carnival, to the extent assets are available for
distribution, Carnival is to ensure that the holders of Carnival common stock
and P&O Princess ordinary shares will be entitled to a liquidation distribution
which is equivalent on a per share basis in accordance with the equalization
ratio then in effect and disregarding any tax consequences. See "The DLC
Transaction--Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders--Liquidation".

                                      124



                                  PROPOSAL 3

 APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CARNIVAL'S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE
           NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE

Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares, of which
960,000,000 are shares of common stock and 40,000,000 are shares of preferred
stock. As of March 11, 2003, there were 586,972,729 shares of common stock and
no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

You are being asked to approve an amendment to our articles of incorporation to
increase the number of shares of common stock that we have the authority to
issue by 999,999,998 shares. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of all outstanding shares of our common stock is required to approve this
amendment to our articles of incorporation. The increase in respect of the
special voting share and the equalization share are integral to the DLC
transaction and are covered by Proposal 2.

We propose to increase our authorized common stock in order to give us greater
flexibility to respond to our future business needs as they may arise including
capital raising, future capital requirements and acquisitions. Other than the
Partial Share Offer (for which we currently have a sufficient number of
authorized but unissued shares), we have no current commitments with respect to
the additional shares we are asking you to authorize, and we do not have at
this time any plans, commitments or understandings with respect to any
acquisitions.

Disadvantages may result from an increase in the number of authorized but
unissued shares of common stock. Our articles of incorporation do not provide
for preemptive rights. If the increase in authorized common stock is approved
by our shareholders, a significant number of additional shares would be
available for issuance without further action by our shareholders, unless such
action is required by law or NYSE listing requirements. The issuance of
additional shares of common stock could have a dilutive effect on the voting
power of existing shareholders and on earnings per share.

                                  PROPOSAL 4

  APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CARNIVAL'S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO REDUCE THE
                     QUORUM REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD MEETINGS

You are being asked to approve an amendment to our articles of incorporation to
add a provision to reduce the quorum requirement for meetings of the board of
directors from a majority, to one-third, of the total number of directors. The
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of our
common stock is required to approve this amendment to our articles of
incorporation.

The change in the quorum requirement reflects a desire to have a consistent
quorum at board meetings of both our board and the P&O Princess board. Our
current quorum requirement is a majority of the directors and P&O Princess'
current quorum requirement is two directors, and the one-third threshold is a
compromise between the two. As a result of the reduced quorum requirement for
board meetings, a smaller number of directors may constitute a validly convened
meeting and may be able to take action at such meeting on behalf of all
directors. As this change is not technically necessary for the DLC transaction
and as the one-third threshold is in neither our current articles nor P&O
Princess' current articles, we are submitting this change for separate approval
by our shareholders.

                                      125



                                  PROPOSAL 5

 APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CARNIVAL'S BY-LAWS TO REDUCE THE QUORUM REQUIREMENT
                           FOR SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS

You are being asked to approve an amendment to our by-laws to reduce the quorum
requirement for meetings of our shareholders from a majority, to one-third, of
the total number of shares entitled to be cast at such meeting. The affirmative
vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of our common stock
entitled to vote at the special meeting is required to approve this amendment
to our by-laws.

The change in the quorum requirement reflects a desire to have a consistent
quorum at our shareholder meetings and the shareholder meetings of P&O
Princess. Our current quorum requirement is a majority of the shares entitled
to vote and P&O Princess' current quorum requirement is only two shareholders,
and the one-third quorum requirement is a compromise between the two.

As a result of the reduced quorum requirement for shareholder meetings, a
smaller number of Carnival shareholders may constitute a validly convened
meeting and may be able to take action at such meeting on behalf of all
shareholders. You should be aware that in addition to the change in the quorum
from majority to one-third, aspects of Proposals 1 and 2 have an impact on the
practical effect of the quorum. Under the voting mechanisms designed to give
effect to the DLC transaction, the Carnival voting share (which will represent
the outcome of votes of the P&O Princess shareholders at parallel P&O Princess
shareholder meetings) must be present in order for there to be a quorum for
Carnival shareholder meetings at which joint electorate actions or class rights
actions are to be considered, and the number of votes cast at the parallel P&O
Princess shareholder meetings will count toward the votes and quorum at
Carnival shareholder meetings at which joint electorate actions are considered.
These are described in the section of the proxy/prospectus called "The DLC
Transaction -- Changes in Rights of Carnival Shareholders -- Quorum
Requirements". Thus, for example, even though a quorum may be present and
Carnival shareholders approve a class rights action, the action may nonetheless
be defeated if the matter is defeated at the parallel P&O Princess shareholder
meeting. Similarly, through the Carnival special voting share, P&O Princess
votes may count towards a Carnival quorum even though one-third of the Carnival
shares outstanding are not present at the meeting.

Based on current ownership levels, certain members of the Arison family,
including Micky Arison and trusts established for their benefit, would
beneficially own a sufficient number of shares to constitute a quorum at
shareholder meetings.

                                  PROPOSAL 6

     APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CARNIVAL'S BY-LAWS TO REMOVE THE ABILITY OF
                    SHAREHOLDERS TO ACT BY WRITTEN CONSENT

You are being asked to approve an amendment to our by-laws to remove the
ability of shareholders to act by written consent. The affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to
vote at the special meeting is required to approve this amendment to our
by-laws.

We propose to remove the ability of shareholders to act by written consent in
order to align our corporate governance procedures with those of P&O Princess.
Our current by-laws allow a majority of our shareholders to take action by
written consent, but under English law (the law that governs matters

                                      126



of corporate procedures for P&O Princess), any shareholder action by written
consent must be unanimous. Accordingly, in order to maintain parity with P&O
Princess, our choice was to either amend our by-laws to require that any action
by written consent be unanimous, in accordance with English law and the
articles of P&O Princess, or remove the ability altogether. Because the NYSE
discourages action by written consent, and unanimous written consent, we
believe, is impracticable for a public company, both we and P&O Princess have
elected to remove the ability of shareholders of either company to act by
written consent.

If this amendment to our by-laws is adopted, shareholders will only be able to
put matters to a vote of shareholders at the annual meeting. Removing the
ability of shareholders to act by written consent may also have the effect of
discouraging or delaying efforts to acquire control of our company by a
shareholder or group of shareholders without the consent of the board and may
make it more difficult for shareholders to coordinate action outside a duly
called shareholder meeting. If this amendment to our by-laws is not adopted,
Carnival and P&O Princess will consider whether additional mechanics are
necessary to ensure that the voting arrangements under the DLC structure can be
given effect in situations where Carnival shareholders act or seek to act by
written consent.


                                      127



      COMMON STOCK OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Set forth below is information concerning the share ownership of (1) all
persons known by us to be the beneficial owners of 5% or more of the
586,972,729 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 11, 2003, (2) the
Chief Executive Officer and the four most highly compensated executive officers
of the Company, (3) each other director of Carnival and (4) all directors and
executive officers as a group.

Micky Arison, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Carnival
other members of the Arison family and trusts for their benefit (collectively,
the "Principal Shareholders"), beneficially own shares representing
approximately 47% of the voting power of the common stock and have entered into
undertakings under which they will be required to vote such shares in favor of
the proposals at the special meeting. These undertakings are irrevocable except
in circumstances where the DLC transaction is withdrawn or lapses. The table
begins with ownership of the Principal Shareholders. See footnote (2) below for
a description of the group comprised of members of the Arison family and other
persons and entities affiliated with them.

The number of shares beneficially owned by each entity, person, director or
executive officer is determined under rules of the SEC, and the information is
not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under
such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual
has the sole or shares voting power or investment power and also any shares
which the individual has the right to acquire as of May 10, 2003 (60 days after
the record date of March 11, 2003) through the exercise of any stock option or
other right.

(2)Micky Arison, Shari Arison and the other Arison family entities named that
   own shares of common stock have filed a joint statement on Schedule 13D with
   respect to the shares of common stock held by such persons. TAMMS Investment
   Company Limited Partnership ("TAMMS") owns 3,653,168 shares of common stock.
   TAMMS' general partner is TAMMS Management Corporation ("TAMMS Corp."),
   which is wholly-owned by MBA I, L.L.C. ("MBA I") and Marilyn B. Arison.
   TAMMS' limited partners are various trusts established for the benefit of
   certain members of Micky Arison's family, including Shari Arison and Marilyn
   Arison (the "Family Trusts"). By virtue of the limited partnership agreement
   of TAMMS, TAMMS Corp. may also be deemed to beneficially own such 3,653,168
   shares of common stock. By virtue of its interest in TAMMS, JMD Delaware,
   Inc. as trustee of certain of the Family Trusts, may be deemed to
   beneficially own the portion of the 3,653,168 shares of common stock held by
   TAMMS which corresponds to its partnership interest in TAMMS. Such amounts
   are included in the number of shares set forth next to its name in the table
   above. Because of his position as President of TAMMS Corp., Micky Arison may
   be deemed to beneficially own the 3,653,168 shares of common stock owned by
   TAMMS; however, Micky Arison disclaims beneficial ownership of all such
   shares which are beneficially owned by TAMMS. Accordingly, Micky Arison has
   not reported beneficial ownership of any of the shares owned by TAMMS.
(3)Includes (i) 408,000 shares of common stock issuable to Micky Arison upon
   his exercise of stock options granted to him in May 1995, January 1998,

   Irrevocable Trust For Shari No. 1 and the Michael Arison 1999 Irrevocable
   Delaware Trust by virtue of the authority granted to Micky Arison under the
   last will of Ted Arison, and (v) 17,538,393 shares of common stock held by
   The 1997 Irrevocable Trust for Micky Arison, all of which may be deemed to
   be beneficially owned by Micky Arison.
(4)Under the terms governing the Shari Arison Irrevocable Guernsey Trust, Shari
   Arison has the sole right to vote and direct the sale of the 4,000,000
   shares of common stock held directly by such trust and the 1,102,708 shares
   of common stock held by TAMMS which corresponds to such trust's respective
   ownership interest in TAMMS. Includes 2,250,000 shares owned by The Ted
   Arison Family Foundation USA, Inc. (the "Foundation"). Because Shari Arison
   is Chairman and President of the Foundation, she may be deemed to
   beneficially own the common stock held by the Foundation. Also includes
   1,200 shares of common stock owned by Shari Arison's children. Shari Arison
   disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares owned by the Foundation and her
   children.
(5)MA 1994 B Shares, L.P. ("MA 1994, L.P.") owns 106,114,284 shares of common

   1994, Inc."), which is wholly-owned by the Micky Arison 1994 "B" Trust, a
   trust established for the benefit of Micky Arison and his heirs (the "B
   Trust"). The sole limited partner of MA 1994, L.P. is the B Trust. Under the
   terms of the instrument governing the B Trust, Micky Arison has the sole
   right to vote and direct the sale of the common stock indirectly held by the
   B Trust. By virtue of the limited partnership agreement of MA 1994, L.P., MA
   1994, Inc. may be deemed to beneficially own all such 106,114,284 shares of
   common stock. By virtue of Micky Arison's interest in the B Trust and the B
   Trust's interest in MA 1994, L.P., Micky Arison may be deemed to
   beneficially own all such 106,114,284 shares of common stock. The trustee of
   the B Trust is JMD Delaware, Inc., a corporation wholly-owned by James M.
   Dubin.

           LIMITATIONS ON ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER
                         U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS

P&O Princess is a company organized under the laws of England and Wales with
headquarters in London, England. Most of P&O Princess' directors and many of
its officers and certain of the experts named in this document are residents of
the UK and not the U.S. In addition, a number of the directors of P&O Princess
after completion of the DLC transaction will be residents of the UK and not the
U.S. A large portion of the assets of P&O Princess and of such other persons
are located outside of the U.S. As a result, U.S. investors may find it
difficult in a lawsuit based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S
federal securities laws to:

..   effect service within the U.S. upon P&O Princess, the directors and
    officers of P&O Princess and certain experts located outside the U.S.;

..   enforce in U.S. courts or outside the U.S. judgments obtained against those
    persons in U.S. courts;

                                      134



..   enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained against those persons in courts
    in jurisdictions outside the U.S.; and

..   enforce against those persons in the UK, whether in original actions or in
    actions for the enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, civil liabilities
    predicated solely upon the U.S. federal securities laws.

Individual shareholders of an English company (including U.S. persons and
depositary shareholders) have the right under English law to bring lawsuits on
behalf of the company in which they are a shareholder, and on their own behalf
against the company, in certain limited circumstances. Except in limited
circumstances, English law does not permit class action lawsuits by
shareholders.

Ratio (i) shall be adjusted, in the manner provided in the Equalization and

at or before the Effective Time that would require an automatic adjustment to
the Equalization Ratio pursuant to the terms of the Equalization and Governance
Agreement as if such agreement were effective during such period, and (ii)
subject to any such adjustment, shall be the Equalization Ratio as of the
Effective Time; provided, however, that the Equalization Ratio shall not be
adjusted for regular dividends declared prior to the Effective Time and
permitted pursuant to Section 4.1.2. Such Equalization Ratio, as so adjusted
from time to time, is referred to herein as the "Equalization Ratio".

                                  ARTICLE III

                        Representations and Warranties

   3.1  Representations and Warranties of Carnival and P&O Princess.  Except as
set forth in the corresponding sections or subsections of the disclosure
letter, dated the date hereof and signed by an authorized officer, delivered by
Carnival to P&O Princess or by P&O Princess to Carnival (each a "Disclosure
Letter" and the "Carnival Disclosure Letter" and the "P&O Princess Disclosure
Letter", respectively), as the case may be, Carnival (except for subparagraphs
3.1.2.2, 3.1.3.2, 3.1.5.2, 3.1.8(ii), and 3.1.9.2 below and references in
Section 3.1.1 below to documents made available by P&O Princess to Carnival)
hereby represents and warrants to P&O Princess, and P&O Princess (except for
subparagraphs 3.1.2.1, 3.1.3.1, 3.1.5.1, 3.1.8(i), and 3.1.9.1 below and
references in Section 3.1.1 below to documents made available by Carnival to
P&O Princess), hereby represents and warrants to Carnival, that:

      3.1.1  Organization, Good Standing and Qualification.  Each of it and its
   Significant Subsidiaries is a corporation or other organization duly
   organized, validly existing and in good



                                      10

   standing (with respect to jurisdictions that recognize the concept of good
   standing) under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation or
   organization and has all requisite corporate or similar power and authority,
   and has been duly authorized by all necessary approvals and orders, to own,
   operate and lease its properties and assets and to carry on its business as
   presently conducted and is duly qualified to do business and is in good
   standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, operation or leasing of
   its assets or properties or conduct of its business requires such
   qualification, except for any such failures to be so organized, qualified or
   in good standing, or to have such power or authority, which, individually or
   in the aggregate, have not had and are not reasonably likely to have a
   Material Adverse Effect with respect to it. Carnival has made available to
   P&O Princess complete and correct copies of its articles of incorporation
   and by-laws, and P&O Princess has made available to Carnival complete and
   correct copies of its memorandum and articles of association, in all cases
   as amended to date. Such articles of incorporation and by-laws or memorandum
   and articles of association, as the case may be, as so made available are in
   full force and effect.

      3.1.2  Capital Structure.

          3.1.2.1  The authorized capital stock of Carnival consists of
       960,000,000 shares of Carnival Common Stock, of which 586,837,283 shares
       were issued and outstanding as of the close of business on January 3,
       2003, and 40,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per
       share ("Carnival Preferred Stock") none of which is outstanding as of
       the date hereof. All of the outstanding shares of Carnival Common Stock
       have been duly authorized and validly issued and are paid and
       non-assessable.

       Carnival has no shares of Carnival Common Stock or Carnival Preferred
       Stock reserved for or otherwise subject to issuance, except that as of
       the close of business on January 3, 2003, there were no more than
       56,570,829 shares of Carnival Common Stock subject to issuance pursuant
       to the plans of Carnival identified in paragraph 3.1.2.1 of the Carnival
       Disclosure Letter as being the only Compensation and Benefit Plans or
       agreements pursuant to which Carnival Common Stock may be issued (the
       "Carnival Stock Plans"). Each of the outstanding shares of capital stock
       or other ownership interests of each of Carnival's Significant
       Subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
       non-assessable and owned by Carnival or a direct or indirect wholly
       owned Subsidiary of Carnival, in each case free and clear of any Lien.
       Except as set forth above or as contemplated by this Agreement, there
       are no preemptive or other outstanding rights, options, warrants,
       conversion rights, stock appreciation rights, redemption rights,
       repurchase rights, agreements, arrangements, calls, commitments or
       rights of any kind which obligate Carnival or any of its Subsidiaries to
       issue or sell any shares of capital stock or other securities of
       Carnival or any of its Subsidiaries or any securities or obligations
       convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for, or giving any
       Person a right to subscribe for or acquire from Carnival or any of its
       Subsidiaries, any securities of Carnival or any of its Subsidiaries, and
       no securities or obligations evidencing such rights are authorized,
       issued or outstanding. Except as described in the Carnival Disclosure
       Letter, Carnival does not have outstanding any bonds, debentures, notes
       or other obligations the holders of which have the right to vote (or
       which are convertible into or exercisable for securities having the
       right to vote) with the shareholders of Carnival on any matter.

          3.1.2.2  The authorized share capital of P&O Princess is $375 million
       divided into 750,000,000 P&O Princess Ordinary Shares. As of the close
       of business on January 7, 2003, the allotted and issued share capital of
       P&O Princess consisted of 693,596,865 P&O Princess Ordinary Shares. All
       of those P&O Princess Ordinary Shares have been duly authorized and
       validly issued and are fully paid or credited as fully paid. P&O
       Princess has no P&O Princess Ordinary Shares reserved for or otherwise
       subject to issuance, except that, as of the close of business on January
       7, 2003, there were no more than 10,000,000 P&O Princess Ordinary



                                      11

       Shares and no more than 2,000,000 P&O Princess ADSs subject to issuance
       pursuant to the plans of P&O Princess identified in subparagraph 3.1.2.2
       of the P&O Princess Disclosure Letter as being the only Compensation and
       Benefit Plans or agreements pursuant to which P&O Princess Ordinary
       Shares may be issued (the "P&O Princess Option Plans"). Each of the
       outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of each
       of P&O Princess' Significant Subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly
       issued, fully paid and non-assessable and owned by P&O Princess or a
       direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of P&O Princess, in each case
       free and clear of any Lien. Except as set forth above or as contemplated
       by this Agreement, there are no preemptive or other outstanding rights,
       options, warrants, conversion rights, stock appreciation rights,
       redemption rights, repurchase rights, agreements, arrangements, calls,
       commitments or rights of any kind which obligate P&O Princess or any of
       its Subsidiaries to issue or to sell any shares of capital stock or
       other securities of P&O Princess or any of its Subsidiaries or any
       securities or obligations convertible or exchangeable into or
       exercisable for, or giving any Person a right to subscribe for or
       acquire from P&O Princess or any of its Subsidiaries, any securities of
       P&O Princess or any of its Subsidiaries, and no securities or
       obligations evidencing such rights are authorized, issued or
       outstanding. P&O Princess does not have outstanding any bonds,
       debentures, notes or other obligations the holders of which have the
       right to vote (or which are convertible into or exercisable for
       securities having the right to vote) with the shareholders of P&O
       Princess on any matter.

      3.1.3  Corporate Authority; Approval and Fairness.

          3.1.3.1  Carnival has all requisite corporate power and authority and
       has taken all corporate action necessary in order to authorize, execute,
       deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to
       consummate the Transactions, subject only to the approval of the
       Transactions (including the Carnival Amendments by the vote of the
       holders of not less than 50% of the outstanding shares of Carnival
       Common Stock entitled to vote thereon (the "Carnival Requisite Vote").
       Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement
       by each party thereto other than Carnival or any of its Subsidiaries,
       this Agreement constitutes, and at the Effective Time each DLC Document
       to which Carnival will be or is a party will constitute, a valid and
       binding agreement of Carnival enforceable against Carnival in accordance
       with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,
       reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
       relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity
       principles (the "Bankruptcy and Equity Exception"). The Board of
       Directors of Carnival has approved this Agreement (including the
       Exhibits hereto) and the Transactions.

          3.1.3.2  P&O Princess has all requisite corporate power and authority
       and has taken all corporate action necessary in order to authorize,
       execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to
       consummate the Transactions, subject only to the approval of the
       Transactions (including the P&O Princess Amendments) by, on a show of
       hands, not less than 75% of the holders of the outstanding P&O Princess
       Ordinary Shares present in person or, on a poll, by the holders of not
       less than 75% of the votes attaching to the P&O Princess Ordinary Shares
       who vote in person or by proxy at the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting
       at which a quorum is present and acting throughout (the "P&O Princess
       Requisite Vote"). Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery
       of this Agreement by each party thereto other than P&O Princess or any
       of its Subsidiaries, this Agreement constitutes, and at the Effective
       Time each DLC Document to which P&O Princess will be or is a party will
       constitute, a valid and binding agreement of P&O Princess, enforceable
       against P&O Princess in accordance with its terms, subject to the
       Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. The Board of Directors of P&O Princess
       (A) has approved this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto), and the
       Transactions and (B) has received the advice of its financial advisor,
       Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, to the effect that, as of the date of
       this Agreement, the terms of the DLC Transactions are fair and
       reasonable.



                                      12


      3.1.4  Governmental Filings; No Violations.

          3.1.4.1  Other than the filings, consents, notices, approvals,
       confirmations, declarations and/or decisions listed in Section 3.1.4.1
       of each Party's Disclosure Letter (all such filings, consents, notices,
       approvals, confirmations, declarations and/or decisions to be made,
       given or obtained by Carnival being the "Carnival Required Consents",
       and by P&O Princess being the "P&O Princess Required Consents") no
       filings, notices, approvals, confirmations, and/or declarations are
       required to be made by it or any of its Subsidiaries with, nor are any
       approvals, consents or other confirmations required to be obtained by it
       or any of its Subsidiaries from, any Governmental Entity, in connection
       with the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement and the
       consummation by it of the Transactions, except those the failure of
       which to make, give or obtain, individually or in the aggregate, is not
       reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to it.

          3.1.4.2  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by
       it does not, and the consummation by it of the Transactions will not,
       constitute or result in (A) a breach or violation of, or a default
       under, its articles of incorporation or by-laws, in the case of
       Carnival, or memorandum or articles of association, in the case of P&O
       Princess, or the comparable governing instruments of any of the
       Significant Subsidiaries of Carnival and P&O Princess, (B) subject to
       making, giving or obtaining all Carnival Required Consents or P&O
       Princess Required Consents, as applicable, and all other necessary
       third-party consents as set forth in Section 3.1.4.2 of its Disclosure
       Letter, a breach or violation of, or a default under, or the
       termination, amendment, cancellation or acceleration of any obligations
       or penalties or the creation of a Lien, charge, "put" or "call" right,
       right of purchase or other encumbrance on the assets of it or any of its
       Subsidiaries (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) pursuant to
       any agreement, lease, license, insurance contract, contract, note,
       mortgage, loan, indenture, arrangement (including, without limitation,
       any financing arrangement) or other obligation ("Contracts") binding
       upon it or any of its Subsidiaries or any Law or governmental or
       non-governmental permit or license to which it or any of its
       Subsidiaries is or any of its or their assets is subject or bound, (C)
       any change in the rights or obligations of either Party under any of its
       Contracts, or (D) any employee of it or its Subsidiaries being entitled
       to severance pay under, acceleration of the time of payment or vesting
       or triggering of any payment of compensation or benefits under,
       increasing the amount payable or triggering of any other obligation
       pursuant to, any of the Compensation and Benefit Plans involving in any
       such case an amount or value greater than $2.5 million for any
       individual or $10 million in the aggregate or any breach or violation
       of, or a default under, any of the Compensation and Benefit Plans,
       except, in the case of clause (B) or (C) above, for any breach,
       violation, default, termination, amendment, cancellation, acceleration,
       creation or change that, individually or in the aggregate, is not
       reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to it.
       Neither Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of, or default
       under, or with the lapse of time or giving of notice or both would be in
       violation of, or default under, any provision of any agreement,
       instrument or arrangement pursuant to which it has borrowed money or
       otherwise incurred indebtedness where the resulting acceleration of all
       the borrowed money or indebtedness under all such agreements,
       instruments and arrangements would be greater than $100 million.

      3.1.5  Reports; Financial Statements.

          3.1.5.1  Carnival has made available to P&O Princess copies of (A)
       each registration statement, report, or other document prepared by it or
       its Subsidiaries and filed with the United States Securities and
       Exchange Commission (the "SEC") since November 30, 2001 (the "Carnival
       Audit Date"), including Carnival's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
       year ended November 30, 2001 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the
       quarters ended February 28, 2002, May 31, 2002 and August 31, 2002, each
       in the form (including exhibits,



                                      13

       annexes and any amendments thereto) filed with the SEC (collectively,
       including any such registration statement, report, or other document
       filed with the SEC subsequent to the date hereof, the "Carnival
       Reports") and (B) all circulars, reports and other documents distributed
       by Carnival to its shareholders since the Carnival Audit Date (it being
       understood that all documents filed with the SEC shall be deemed to have
       been made available for purposes of this Section 3.1.5.1). As of their
       respective dates, the Carnival Reports did not, and any Carnival Reports
       filed with the SEC subsequent to the date hereof will not, contain any
       untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
       required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made
       therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
       not misleading. Each of the consolidated balance sheets included in or
       incorporated by reference into the Carnival Reports (including the
       related notes and schedules) fairly presents, or in the case of those
       filed with the SEC after the date hereof will fairly present, in all
       material respects, the consolidated financial position of Carnival and
       its Subsidiaries as of its date and each of the related consolidated
       statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows included
       in or incorporated by reference into the Carnival Reports (including any
       related notes and schedules) fairly presents, or in the case of those
       filed with the SEC after the date hereof will fairly present, in all
       material respects, the consolidated results of operations, retained
       earnings and changes in cash flows, as the case may be, of Carnival and
       its consolidated Subsidiaries for the periods set forth therein
       (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to notes and normal
       year-end audit adjustments that are not expected to be material in
       amount or effect), in each case in accordance with US GAAP consistently
       applied during the periods involved except as may be noted therein. All
       of the Carnival Reports, as of their respective dates (and as of the
       date of any amendment to the respective Carnival Report), complied, or
       in the case of those filed with the SEC after the date hereof will
       comply, as to form in all material respects with the applicable
       requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Except as
       disclosed in the Carnival Reports filed prior to the date hereof,
       Carnival and its consolidated Subsidiaries have not incurred any
       liabilities that are of a nature that would be required to be disclosed
       on a balance sheet of Carnival and its consolidated Subsidiaries or the
       footnotes thereto prepared in conformity with US GAAP, other than (A)
       liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with
       past practice, (B) liabilities incurred in accordance with Section 4.1,
       (C) liabilities for Taxes in respect of income, profits or gains earned
       in the ordinary course of business or (D) liabilities that, individually

       a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Carnival.

          3.1.5.2  P&O Princess has made available to Carnival copies of (A)
       each registration statement, report or other document prepared by it or
       its Subsidiaries and filed with, or furnished to, the SEC since December
       31, 2001 (the "P&O Princess Audit Date", with the P&O Princess Audit
       Date and the Carnival Audit Date each being referred to herein as the
       relevant Party's "Audit Date"), including P&O Princess' Annual Report on
       Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2001 and interim financial
       Reports on Form 6-K for the quarters ended March 31, 2002, June 30, 2002
       and September 30, 2002, each in the form (including exhibits, annexes
       and any amendments thereto) filed with, or furnished to, the SEC
       (collectively, including any such registration statement, report or
       other document filed with, or furnished to, the SEC subsequent to the
       date hereof, the "P&O Princess US Reports"); and (B) all circulars,
       reports and other documents distributed by P&O Princess to its
       shareholders since the P&O Princess Audit Date (it being understood that
       all documents filed with the SEC shall be deemed to have been made
       available for purposes of this Section 3.1.5.2). As of their respective
       dates, the P&O Princess US Reports did not, and any P&O Princess US
       Report filed with, or furnished to, the SEC subsequent to the date
       hereof will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
       to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
       make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances
       under which



                                      14

       they were made, not misleading. All of the P&O Princess US Reports, as
       of their respective dates (and as of the date of any amendment to the
       respective P&O Princess US Reports), complied, or in the case of those
       filed with, or furnished to, the SEC after the date hereof will comply,
       as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of
       the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. All documents notified by P&O
       Princess to, or filed by P&O Princess with, the UKLA since the P&O
       Princess Audit Date, including any documents notified by P&O Princess
       to, or filed by P&O Princess with, the UKLA subsequent to the date
       hereof (the "P&O Princess UK Reports", collectively with the P&O
       Princess US Reports, the "P&O Princess Reports", with the Carnival
       Reports and the P&O Princess Reports each being referred to as the
       relevant Party's "Reports") complied, or in the case of those notified
       or filed by P&O Princess subsequent to the date hereof will comply, as
       to form, in all material respects with the applicable provisions, of the
       London Listing Rules and the Companies Act. As of their respective
       dates, the P&O Princess UK Reports did not, and any P&O Princess UK
       Report notified by P&O Princess to, or filed by P&O Princess with, the
       UKLA subsequent to the date hereof will not, contain any untrue
       statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required
       to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein,
       in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
       misleading in any material respect. Each of the consolidated balance
       sheets included in or incorporated by reference into the P&O Princess
       Reports (including the related notes and schedules) fairly presents, or
       will fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated
       financial position of P&O Princess and its Subsidiaries as of its date,
       and each of the related consolidated statements of profit and loss
       accounts, changes in shareholders' funds, total recognized gains and
       losses and cash flows included in or incorporated by reference into the
       P&O Princess Reports (including any related notes and schedules) fairly
       presents, or, in the case of those filed with or furnished to, the SEC
       after the date hereof, will fairly present, in all material respects,
       the consolidated results of operations, retained earnings and cash flows
       of P&O Princess and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the periods set
       forth therein (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to notes
       and normal year-end audit adjustments that are not expected to be
       material in amount or effect), in each case in accordance with UK GAAP
       consistently applied during the periods involved except as may be noted
       therein. The related notes to the P&O Princess US Reports filed with the
       SEC reconciling such consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement
       of income, statement of changes in shareholders' interest, and statement
       of cash flows comply in all material respects with the requirements of
       the SEC applicable to such reconciliation to US GAAP. Except as
       disclosed in the P&O Princess Reports filed prior to the date hereof,
       P&O Princess and its consolidated Subsidiaries have not incurred any
       liabilities that are of a nature that would be required to be disclosed
       on a balance sheet of P&O Princess and its consolidated Subsidiaries or
       the footnotes thereto prepared in conformity with UK GAAP, other than
       (A) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent
       with past practice, (B) liabilities incurred in accordance with Section
       4.1, (C) liabilities for Taxes in respect of income, profits or gains
       earned in the ordinary course of business or (D) liabilities that,
       individually or in the aggregate, have not had and are not reasonably
       likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to P&O Princess.

      3.1.6  Absence of Certain Changes.  Except as disclosed in its Reports
   filed or furnished prior to the date hereof, or as expressly contemplated by
   this Agreement, since its Audit Date it and its Significant Subsidiaries
   have conducted their respective businesses only in, and have not engaged in
   any material transaction ("material" being construed in the context of the
   Party and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole) other than according to, the
   ordinary and usual course of such businesses, and there has not been (i) any
   Material Adverse Change with respect to it; (ii) declaration, setting aside
   or payment of any dividend or other distribution in cash, stock or property
   in respect of its capital stock, except for dividends or other distributions
   on its capital stock publicly announced prior to the date hereof and except
   as expressly permitted hereby; (iii)



                                      15

   any split in its capital stock, combination, subdivision or reclassification
   of any of its capital stock or issuance or authorization of any issuance of
   any other securities in respect of, in lieu of or in substitution for shares
   of its capital stock, except as expressly contemplated hereby or (iv) any
   change by it in accounting principles, practices or methods except as
   required by changes in US GAAP or UK GAAP, as the case may be. Since its
   Audit Date, except as provided for herein or as disclosed in its Reports
   filed or furnished prior to the date hereof, there has not been any increase
   in the compensation payable or that could become payable by it or any of its
   Subsidiaries to officers or key employees, or any amendment of, or
   acceleration of the time of payment or vesting under, any of its
   Compensation and Benefit Plans or agreements, other than increases or
   amendments in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice
   that are not, individually or aggregate, material ("material" being
   construed in the context of the Party and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole)
   or that are contemplated by this Agreement.

          3.1.7.1  Except as disclosed in its Reports filed or furnished prior
       to the date hereof, there are no (i) civil, criminal or administrative
       actions, suits, claims, hearings, investigations or proceedings
       existing, pending or, to the knowledge of, in the case of Carnival, its
       Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel (the

       Princess Officers") threatened, against it or any of its Subsidiaries or
       (ii) obligations or liabilities, whether or not accrued, contingent or
       otherwise and whether or not required to be disclosed, or any other
       facts or circumstances of which, in the case of Carnival, the Carnival
       Officers, and, in the case of P&O Princess, the P&O Princess Officers,
       have knowledge that would reasonably be expected to result in any claims
       against, or obligations or liabilities of, it or any of its
       Subsidiaries, except, in each case, for those that, individually or in
       the aggregate, have not had and are not reasonably likely to have a
       Material Adverse Effect with respect to it.

          3.1.7.2  Except as disclosed in its Reports filed or furnished prior
       to the date hereof it and its Subsidiaries hold all permits, licenses,
       franchises, variances, exemptions, orders and approvals of Governmental
       Entities which are necessary for the operation of the businesses as now
       being conducted by it and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (as to each
       Party, its "Permits"), no suspension or cancellation of any of its
       Permits is pending or, to the knowledge of the Carnival Officers in the
       case of Carnival or the P&O Princess Officers in the case of P&O
       Princess, threatened and it and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with
       the terms of its Permits, except for any such failures to hold,
       suspensions or cancellations of, or failures to comply with, such
       Permits that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and are not
       reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to it.
       Neither it nor its Subsidiaries is in violation with respect to any Laws
       of any Governmental Entity, except for any such violations which,
       individually or in the aggregate, have not had and are not reasonably
       likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to it.

      3.1.8  Brokers and Finders.  Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries,
   officers, directors or employees has employed any broker or finder or
   incurred any liability for any brokerage fees, commissions or finders' fees
   in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the
   Transactions, except that (i) Carnival has retained Merrill Lynch

   directly or indirectly, initiate, solicit, encourage or otherwise facilitate
   any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer by a third party with
   respect to a merger, takeover, reorganization, share exchange, scheme of
   arrangement, dual-holding company transaction, consolidation or similar
   transaction involving Carnival or P&O Princess, or any purchase of or joint
   venture (or similar arrangement) involving, or offer to purchase or enter

   with or provide any confidential information or data to any Person relating
   to an Acquisition Proposal or engage in any negotiations concerning an

   or implement an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that nothing
   contained in this Agreement shall prevent either Carnival or P&O Princess or
   its board of directors from (i) negotiating with or furnishing information
   to any Person who has made a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition
   Proposal which did not result from a breach of this Section 4.2.1 (or any
   action that would have



                                      19

   constituted such a breach if the Representatives of such Party were bound by
   this Section to the same extent as such Party) or Section 6 of, or any
   comparable no-shop provision in, the Stockholders Deed Polls (or any action
   that would have constituted a breach if the Representatives (as defined in
   the Stockholders Deed Polls) were bound by such Section to the same extent
   as the Carnival Major Stockholders) (each, a "Qualifying Acquisition
   Proposal") or (ii) recommending a Qualifying Acquisition Proposal to its
   shareholders, if and only to the extent that, in each case, the board of
   directors of such Party determines in good faith after consultation with
   outside legal counsel that the failure to take such action would result in a
   breach of the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors and such Qualifying
   Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Agreement,
   a "Superior Proposal" means in respect of Carnival or P&O Princess, as
   applicable, any Qualifying Acquisition Proposal by a third party (x) on
   terms which the board of directors of such Party determines in its good
   faith judgment to be more favorable from a financial point of view to its
   shareholders than the Transactions after consultation with its financial
   advisors (which advice shall be communicated to the other Party) and after
   giving the other Party at least ten Business Days to respond to such third
   party Qualifying Acquisition Proposal, (y) which the board of directors of
   such Party determines in its good faith judgment to constitute a transaction
   that is reasonably likely to be consummated on the terms set forth, taking
   into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of such
   proposal and (z) which relates to at least a majority of the consolidated
   assets by value or the securities by voting power of such Party. Each of
   Carnival and P&O Princess agrees that it will immediately cease and cause to
   be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any
   Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Each
   of Carnival and P&O Princess also agrees that if it has not already done so,
   it will promptly request each Person, if any, that has heretofore executed a
   confidentiality agreement within the 12 months prior to the date hereof in
   connection with its consideration of any Acquisition Proposal to return or
   destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by
   or on behalf of it or any of its Subsidiaries.

      4.2.2  Notifications.  Each of Carnival and P&O Princess agrees that it
   will take the necessary steps promptly to inform its Subsidiaries and its
   and its Subsidiaries' Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this
   Section 4.2. Each of Carnival and P&O Princess agrees that it will notify
   the other promptly if any inquiries, proposals or offers relating to or
   constituting an Acquisition Proposal are received by, any information is
   requested from, or any such discussions or negotiations are sought to be
   initiated or continued with, it, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or
   its Subsidiaries' Representatives indicating, in connection with such
   notice, the name of such Person and the material terms and conditions of any
   proposals or offers and thereafter shall keep the other informed, on a
   current basis, of the status and material terms of any such proposals or
   offers, including providing the other Party with copies of any information
   provided to such other Person.

      4.2.3  Compliance with Exchange Act, Exchange Regulations and City
   Code.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit a Party from
   taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rule
   14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal by
   means of a tender or exchange offer or taking such action and making such
   recommendations as its board of directors shall determine, in good faith
   after consultation with outside legal counsel, is required in order to
   comply with any obligations imposed on it by the SEC, the NYSE, the City
   Code, the Takeover Panel, the London Stock Exchange or the UKLA in relation
   to any Acquisition Proposal (provided that it is hereby acknowledged, for
   the avoidance of doubt, that no provision of the City Code requires P&O
   Princess or its directors to solicit or initiate any Acquisition Proposal).
   If the SEC, the NYSE, the Takeover Panel, UKLA or London Stock Exchange, as
   applicable, requests or directs a Party to take any course of action in
   connection with, or which would have any effect on, the Transactions, then
   such Party agrees, solely to the extent practicable (having regard to the
   time available and the nature and urgency of such request



                                      20

   or direction), to (i) notify the other Party of this fact and (ii) consult
   with the other Party prior to taking any action with respect to such request
   or direction.

   4.3  Information Supplied.

      4.3.1  Shareholder Documents.  Each of Carnival and P&O Princess each
   agrees, as to itself and its Subsidiaries that:

          4.3.1.1  It shall provide such information for inclusion in each of
       the Shareholder Documents, such that each Shareholder Document shall
       contain all particulars relating to Carnival and P&O Princess required
       to comply in all material respects with all applicable Laws, including
       the PGCL, the Companies Act, the City Code and the Financial Services
       and Markets Act 2000 (and the rules and regulations thereunder), the
       requirements of the London Stock Exchange, the listing rules of the
       UKLA, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
       of the SEC and the NYSE;

          4.3.1.2  The information provided by such Party for inclusion or
       incorporation by reference in any of the Shareholder Documents shall
       not, at the date of mailing to shareholders and at the time or times of
       the Carnival Shareholders Meeting or the P&O Princess Shareholders
       Meeting, as applicable, contain any untrue statement of a material fact
       or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
       necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
       circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material
       respect; and

          4.3.1.3  If at any time prior to the Carnival Shareholders Meeting or
       the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting, as applicable, any information
       relating to Carnival or P&O Princess, or any of their respective
       Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Carnival or
       P&O Princess which should be set forth in a supplement to any of the
       Shareholder Documents, so that such document would not include any
       misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
       required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
       therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
       not misleading in any material respect, the Party which discovers such
       information shall promptly notify the other Party and, to the extent
       required by Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such
       information shall be promptly disseminated to the Carnival shareholders
       or the P&O Princess shareholders, as applicable.

   4.4  Shareholders Meetings.  Carnival and P&O Princess will each
respectively take all action necessary to convene a meeting of the holders of
Carnival Common Stock to obtain the Carnival Requisite Vote (the "Carnival
Shareholders Meeting") and the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares to
obtain the P&O Princess Requisite Vote (the "P&O Princess Shareholders
Meeting") to approve the Transactions, as soon as possible after the date
hereof, and the Parties shall liaise to ensure that the Carnival Shareholders
Meeting will be held two days prior to the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting;
provided that if either Party elects to hold its meeting on an earlier date, it
may do so; provided, however, the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting may not be
convened prior to the 20th Business Day after commencement of the Offer.
Subject to fiduciary obligations and the requirements of applicable Law, the
board of directors of each of Carnival and P&O Princess shall recommend to its
respective shareholders the approval of, in the case of Carnival, the Carnival
Amendments and, in the case of P&O Princess, the P&O Princess Amendments, and
in each case, this Agreement and the DLC Transactions, which recommendation
shall be set forth in the Carnival Circular and the P&O Princess EGM Circular,
respectively, and shall take all lawful action to solicit such approval. The
Carnival Shareholders Meeting and the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting will be
held regardless of any failure to make such recommendation or any change in
such recommendation.

   respect to the Shareholders Documents promptly after the receipt of such

   promptly prepare and file a listing application with the NYSE with respect
   to the SVT Shares and shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such SVT
   Shares approved for listing by the NYSE, subject only to official notice of
   issuance.

      4.5.2  Mailing of Documents.  Carnival shall use its reasonable best
   efforts to cause the Carnival Circular to be mailed to its shareholders as
   promptly as practicable after the SEC has declared the Second Joint

   UKLA has approved the P&O Princess EGM Circular.

      4.5.3  Cooperation.  Carnival and P&O Princess shall each cooperate with
   the other and (i) use (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use)
   all their respective reasonable best efforts promptly to take or cause to be
   taken all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, necessary, proper
   or advisable under this Agreement and applicable Laws to consummate and make
   effective the Transactions as soon as practicable, including preparing and
   filing as promptly as practicable all documentation to effect all necessary
   filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of
   information, applications and other documents, (ii) use (and shall cause
   their respective Subsidiaries to use) all their respective reasonable best

   P&O Princess Required Consents) necessary, proper or advisable to consummate
   the Transactions, and (iii) use (and shall cause their respective
   Subsidiaries to use) their respective reasonable best efforts to take or
   cause to be taken all actions, and do or cause to be done all things,
   necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Carnival Required Consents or
   P&O Princess Required Consents, as the case may be; provided that neither
   Party shall be required by this Section 4.5.3(ii) or (iii) to accept or
   agree to any conditions, terms or restrictions in connection with any such
   Carnival Required Consent or P&O Princess Required Consent, as the case may
   be, which, individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to
   have a Material Adverse Effect on P&O Princess and/or Carnival after the
   Effective Time (it being understood that, for this purpose, materiality
   shall be considered with reference to the total equity market value of P&O
   Princess and Carnival as a unified commercial enterprise). Subject to
   applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, Carnival and P&O
   Princess shall have the right to review in advance,



                                      22

   and to the extent practicable each will consult the other on, all the
   information relating to Carnival and its Subsidiaries or P&O Princess and
   its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, that appears in any filing made with,
   or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any Governmental
   Entity in connection with the Transactions. In exercising the foregoing
   right, each of Carnival and P&O Princess shall act reasonably and as
   promptly as practicable.

   notice, statement, registration, submission of information or application
   made by or on behalf of Carnival or P&O Princess or any of their respective
   Subsidiaries to any third party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection
   with the Transactions.

      4.5.5  Status.  Carnival and P&O Princess each shall keep the other
   apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the
   Transactions, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices
   or other communications received by Carnival or P&O Princess, as the case
   may be, or any of its Subsidiaries, from any third party and/or any
   Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions. Carnival and P&O
   Princess each shall give prompt notice to the other of any change that is
   reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect on it or of any
   failure of any condition set forth in Article V to the other Party's
   obligations to effect the Transactions.

      4.5.6  Consultation; Participation.  Prior to making any filing, notice,
   petition, statement, registration, submission of information or application
   to or with any third party and/or Governmental Entity (including any
   securities exchange) in connection with the consummation of the Transactions
   and except as may be required by Law or by obligations pursuant to any
   listing agreement with or rules of any securities exchange, each Party shall
   make all reasonable efforts to consult with the other Party with respect to
   the content of such filing, notice, petition, statement, registration,
   submission of information or application and to provide the other Party with

   statement of information or application. Carnival and P&O Princess each
   shall not agree to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity
   in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry relating to the
   Transactions unless it consults with the other Party in advance and, to the
   extent practicable and permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives the
   other Party the opportunity to attend and participate thereat. The foregoing
   requirements of Section 4.5.6 shall not apply to P&O Princess' discussions
   and meetings with the UK Inland Revenue with respect to tonnage taxes and
   amendments to existing tonnage tax elections; provided that P&O Princess
   shall notify Carnival of any such discussions and meetings, and to the
   extent practicable, consult with Carnival with respect thereto.

      4.5.7  Cooperation in Defense of Claim.  In the event any claim, action,
   suit investigation or other proceeding by any Governmental Entity or other
   Person or other legal or administrative proceeding is commenced that
   questions the validity or legality of this Agreement or any of the
   Transactions or claims damages in connection therewith, the Parties agree to
   cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts, subject to the limitations
   set forth in Section 4.5.3, to defend against and respond thereto.

except as may otherwise be required by applicable Law, each Party shall (and
shall cause its Subsidiaries to) afford the other Party's Representatives
access, during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the
Effective Time, to its properties, books, contracts and records and, during
such period, each shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) furnish promptly
to the other all information concerning its business, properties and personnel
as may be



                                      23

requested by the other Party which it reasonably requires in order to
investigate and confirm the accuracy of such Party's representations and
warranties and the satisfaction of the conditions to Closing relating thereto;
provided that no receipt of information pursuant to this Section shall affect
or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by Carnival or P&O
Princess hereunder; and provided, further that the foregoing shall not require
Carnival or P&O Princess to permit any inquiry, or to disclose any information,
that in the reasonable judgment of Carnival or P&O Princess, as the case may
be, would (i) violate any antitrust or competition Law or (ii) result in the
disclosure of any trade secrets of third parties or violate any of its
obligations with respect to confidentiality to third parties if Carnival or P&O
Princess, as the case may be, shall have used reasonable efforts to obtain the
consent of such third party to such inspection or disclosure. All such
information shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement,
dated October 11, 2002, between the Parties (the "Confidentiality Agreement"),
including without limitation all such information disclosed in the Disclosure
Letters.

   4.7  Publicity.  Carnival and P&O Princess shall to the extent practicable
(i) consult with each other and, except as may be required by Law or by
obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any national
securities exchange or as required by the Takeover Panel, mutually agree on the
content prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making public
announcements with respect to the Transactions and (ii) consult with each other
prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making public announcements
which could materially affect the Transactions.

   4.8  Benefits and Other Matters.

      4.8.1  Director and Officer Liability.

          4.8.1.1  P&O Princess and Carnival each agree that all rights to
       indemnification and all limitations on liability existing in favor of
       any Indemnitee (as defined below) in respect of acts or omissions of
       such Indemnitee on or prior to the Effective Time as provided in the
       articles of incorporation and by-laws, in the case of Carnival, or
       memorandum and articles of association, in the case of P&O Princess, or
       an agreement between an Indemnitee and it or its Subsidiaries in effect
       as of the date hereof shall continue in full force and effect in
       accordance with the terms thereof.

          4.8.1.2  For six years after the Effective Time, P&O Princess or
       Carnival, as the case may be, shall indemnify and hold harmless the
       individuals who on or prior to the Effective Time were officers or
       directors of either Party or either Party's Subsidiaries (the
       "Indemnitees") to the same extent as set forth in Section 4.8.1.1 above.
       In the event any claim in respect of which indemnification is available
       pursuant to the foregoing provisions is asserted or made within such
       six-year period, all rights to indemnification shall continue until such
       claim is disposed of or all judgments, orders, decrees or other rulings
       in connection with such claim are duly satisfied.

          4.8.1.3  For six years after the Effective Time, P&O Princess and
       Carnival shall provide officers' and directors' liability insurance in
       respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time
       covering each such Person currently covered by its officers' and
       directors' liability insurance policy on terms with respect to coverage
       and in amounts no less favorable than those of such policy in effect on
       the date hereof; provided, however, that during such period, Carnival
       and P&O Princess shall be required to maintain or procure as much
       coverage as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an
       annual premium not in excess of 200% of the current annual premium paid
       by P&O Princess or Carnival, as the case may be, for its existing
       coverage.

          4.8.1.4  The obligations of P&O Princess and Carnival under this
       Section 4.8.1 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to
       adversely affect any Indemnitee to whom



                                      24

       this Section 4.8.1 applies without the consent of such affected
       Indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnitees to whom this
       Section 4.8.1 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section
       4.8.1).

          4.8.1.5  Each Party (the "Providing Party") shall indemnify and hold
       harmless, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable Law, the

       connection with the information provided by such Providing Party for use
       in the Shareholder Documents pursuant to Section 4.3 which contains any
       untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state any material
       fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
       therein not misleading.

      4.8.2  Directors of Carnival and P&O Princess.  At the Effective Time,
   the board of directors of each of Carnival and P&O Princess shall consist of
   the individuals listed on Exhibit J (the "Mutual Directors"). Such Mutual
   Directors shall be the directors of each of Carnival and P&O Princess from
   and after the Effective Time until their successors have been duly elected
   or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or
   removal in accordance with P&O Princess' memorandum and articles and
   Carnival's restated articles of incorporation and by-laws, in each case as
   then in effect. Carnival and P&O Princess agree to procure such resignations
   of their respective directors as may be necessary so that at the Effective
   Time the Mutual Directors are the only directors of Carnival and P&O
   Princess.

   Carnival's restated articles of incorporation and by-laws, in each case as
   then in effect. If at or immediately prior to the Effective Time, either of
   such individuals shall be unwilling or unable to serve, a person to fill
   such position shall be designated by the chief executive officer of Carnival
   at such time.

   of dividends on Carnival Common Stock and P&O Princess Ordinary Shares so
   that the respective holders of Carnival Common Stock and P&O Princess
   Ordinary Shares do not receive two dividends in respect of the calendar
   quarter in which the Effective Time occurs or fail to receive a dividend in
   respect of the calendar quarter in which the Effective Time occurs.

      4.10.2  Integration Planning.  To the extent permitted by applicable Law,
   promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Parties will establish an

   Ordinary Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer in
   compliance with the obligations respecting prompt payment pursuant to Rule

      4.11.2  Modification of the Offer, Fractional Shares.  Subject to the
   City Code, Carnival expressly reserves the right to modify the terms of the
   Offer, except that, without the prior written consent of P&O Princess,

   conditions to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions or modify the
   Offer Conditions (other than to waive any Offer Conditions to the extent

   be issued in connection with the exchange of Carnival Common Stock for P&O
   Princess Ordinary Shares upon consummation of the Offer, and in lieu thereof
   each tendering shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional
   share of Carnival Common Stock in the Offer will be paid an amount in cash
   equal to either: (i) the product obtained by multiplying (A) the fractional
   share interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled by (B) the
   closing price of the Carnival Common Stock on the NYSE (as reported in The
   Wall Street Journal or, if not reported therein, any other authoritative
   source) on the date the Offer becomes unconditional; or (ii) the pro rata
   entitlement of such member to the net proceeds of the sale of the aggregate
   fractional entitlements to Carnival Common Stock which shall be sold in the
   market at the best price reasonably obtainable by Carnival; provided always
   that Carnival shall be able to choose whether to apply the procedure
   referred to in (i) or (ii) above, shall not be obliged to give any reasons
   for such choice and such choice shall be conclusive and binding on all
   persons concerned and shall not be open to challenge on any grounds

   accepted represents more than 20% of the outstanding P&O Princess Ordinary
   Shares, only that number of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares representing 20% of
   the outstanding P&O Princess Ordinary Shares shall be acquired by Carnival,
   and acceptances shall be scaled back in the manner prescribed by Rule 36.7
   of the City Code.

      4.11.5  Schedule TO.  As promptly as practicable after the date hereof,
   Carnival shall file with the SEC a Schedule TO.

   becoming record holders subsequent to such date, together with copies of all
   lists of shareholders, security position listings and computer files and all
   other information in P&O Princess's possession or control regarding the
   beneficial owners of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and any securities
   convertible into P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, and shall furnish to Carnival
   such information and assistance (including updated lists of shareholders,

   (i) to the extent qualified by Material Adverse Effect or any other

Princess referred to in paragraph 5.1.1, by mutual written consent of Carnival
and P&O Princess by action of their respective boards of directors.

   6.2  Termination by Either P&O Princess or Carnival.  This Agreement may be

                                      30

shareholders of Carnival or P&O Princess (the "Termination Date"), (ii) any
Order (which the terminating Party shall have used its reasonable best efforts
to resist, resolve or lift, as applicable, in accordance with Section 4.5)
permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation
of, or materially adversely affecting, the Transactions shall have become final
and non-appealable, whether before or after the approval by the shareholders of
Carnival or P&O Princess, (iii) the Carnival Requisite Vote shall not have been
obtained at the duly held Carnival Shareholders Meeting, including any
adjournments or postponements thereof or, in any event by the date that is five
Business Days prior to the Termination Date, or (iv) the P&O Princess Requisite
Vote shall not have been obtained at the duly held P&O Princess Shareholders
Meeting, including any adjournments or postponements thereof or, in any event

that has breached in any material respect its obligations under this Agreement
in any manner that shall have proximately contributed to the failure of the
Transactions to be consummated.

   6.3  Termination by Carnival.  This Agreement may be terminated and the
Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether
before or after the approval by shareholders of Carnival referred to in
paragraph 5.1.1, by action of the board of directors of Carnival, if (i) the

directors shall take any of the actions described in clause (ii) of the proviso

representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, or
any event or circumstance shall occur as a result of which any such
representation and warranty shall not be true as of, and as if made on, any
date after the date hereof, which, in each case, would result in a failure of a
condition set forth in paragraph 5.3.1 or 5.3.2 and cannot be or is not cured
prior to the Termination Date; or (iv) a third party announces a firm intention
(whether or not subject to a pre-condition) to make an offer or Acquisition
Proposal for P&O Princess (including an offer to form a dual-listed company)
which offer is (x) either subject to the City Code or is otherwise legally
binding and (y) in Carnival's reasonable opinion, acting in good faith and
after consultation with its financial advisers, the nature of such advice to be
communicated to P&O Princess, is likely to be more attractive to P&O Princess
Shareholders than the DLC Transactions.

   6.4  Termination by P&O Princess.  This Agreement may be terminated and the
Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether
before or after the approval by the shareholders of P&O Princess referred to in
paragraph 5.1.1, by action of the board of directors of P&O Princess, if (i)
the board of directors of Carnival shall have withdrawn or adversely modified

reconfirm such approval or recommendation within five Business Days after a
written request by P&O Princess to do so; or (ii) Carnival or its board of
directors shall take any of the actions described in clause (ii) of the proviso
to Section 4.2.1; or (iii) there shall be a breach by Carnival of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, or
any event or circumstance shall occur as a result of which any such
representation and warranty shall not be true as of, and as if made on, any
date after the date hereof, which, in each case, would result in a failure of a
condition set forth in paragraph 5.2.1 or 5.2.2 and cannot be or is not cured
prior to the Termination Date.

   6.5  Effect of Termination and Abandonment.

      6.5.1  Effect of Termination.  In the event of termination of this
   Agreement and the abandonment of the Transactions pursuant to this Article
   VI, this Agreement (other than as set forth in Section 7.1) shall become
   void and of no effect with no liability on the part of either Party



                                      31

   (or of any of its Representatives); provided, however, that, subject to
   Section 7.1, no such termination shall relieve either Party of any liability
   for damages resulting from any breach of this Agreement or from any
   obligation to pay, if applicable, the Carnival Termination Amount (as
   defined below) or the P&O Princess Termination Amount (as defined below), as
   the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.5.2 or 6.5.3.

      6.5.2  Carnival Break Fee.  In the event that (i) this Agreement is
   terminated by either Carnival or P&O Princess pursuant to Section 6.2(iii)
   and at the time of the Carnival Shareholders Meeting an Acquisition Proposal
   exists with respect to Carnival; or (ii) this Agreement is terminated by P&O
   Princess pursuant to Section 6.4(i), 6.4(ii) or 6.4(iii) (solely with
   respect to a breach of Section 4.2), then if any Acquisition Proposal
   involving Carnival is implemented or completed on or before the day which is
   18 months after the date of this Agreement, Carnival shall promptly, but in
   no event later than two days after the date of such implementation or
   completion, pay to P&O Princess a termination payment equal to the Carnival
   Termination Amount, which amount shall be exclusive of any expenses to be
   paid pursuant to Section 4.9, payable by wire transfer of same day funds.
   The term "Carnival Termination Amount" shall mean $49.4 million
   (representing 1 per cent of the market capitalisation of P&O Princess on
   January 7, 2003). Carnival acknowledges that the agreements contained in
   this Section 6.5.2 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that,
   without these agreements, P&O Princess would not enter into this Agreement;
   accordingly, if Carnival fails promptly to pay any amount due pursuant to
   this Section 6.5.2, and, in order to obtain such payment, P&O Princess
   commences a suit which results in a judgment against Carnival for the
   payment set forth in this Section 6.5.2, Carnival shall pay to P&O Princess
   its costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) in connection with such
   suit, together with interest on the Carnival Termination Amount from each
   date for payment until the date of such payment at the prime rate of
   Citibank N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required to be made
   plus 2 percent.

      6.5.3  P&O Princess Break Fee.  In the event that (i) this Agreement is
   terminated by either Carnival or P&O Princess pursuant to Section 6.2(iv)
   and at the time of the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting an Acquisition
   Proposal exists with respect to P&O Princess; or (ii) this Agreement is
   terminated by Carnival pursuant to Section 6.3(i), 6.3(ii) or 6.3(iii)
   (solely with respect to a breach of Section 4.2 then if any Acquisition
   Proposal involving P&O Princess is implemented or completed on or before the
   day which is 18 months after the date of this Agreement, P&O Princess shall
   promptly, but in no event later than two days after the date of such
   implementation or completion, pay to Carnival a termination payment equal to
   the P&O Princess Termination Amount, which amount shall be exclusive of any
   expenses to be paid pursuant to Section 4.9, payable by wire transfer of
   same day funds. The term "P&O Princess Termination Amount" shall mean $49.4
   million (representing 1 per cent. of the market capitalisation of P&O
   Princess on January 7, 2003). P&O Princess acknowledges that the agreements
   contained in this Section 6.5.3 are an integral part of the Transactions,
   and that, without these agreements, Carnival would not enter into this
   Agreement; accordingly, if P&O Princess fails promptly to pay any amount due
   pursuant to this Section 6.5.3, and, in order to obtain such payment,
   Carnival commences a suit which results in a judgment against P&O Princess
   for the payment set forth in this Section 6.5.3, P&O Princess shall pay to
   Carnival its costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) in connection
   with such suit, together with interest on the P&O Princess Termination
   Amount from each date for payment until the date of such payment at the
   prime rate of Citibank N.A. in effect on the date such payment was required
   to be made plus 2 percent.

Agreement. All other representations, warranties, agreements and covenants in
this Agreement shall not survive the Effective Time or the termination of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no termination of this Agreement
shall relieve any Party from liability for any breach by it of its covenants
and agreements in this Agreement prior to such termination; provided that the
sole remedy of any Party for any breach by the other Party of any
representation or warranty in this Agreement other than those in Section 3.1.3
(Corporate Authority; Approval; and Fairness) shall be the right (if any) to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 6.3 or Section
6.4, as applicable.

   7.2  Modification or Amendment.  This Agreement may be modified or amended
by agreement of the Parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective
boards of directors, at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided,
however, that, after approval by shareholders of the matters presented at the
Carnival Shareholders Meeting or the P&O Princess Shareholders Meeting, no
modification or amendment shall be made which under applicable Law requires
further approval by such shareholders without such further approval. This
Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing
executed and delivered by duly authorized officers of each of the Parties.

   7.3  Waiver of Conditions.  Any provision of this Agreement may be waived
prior to the Effective Time if, and only if, such waiver is in writing and
signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. For the
purposes of Article V, P&O Princess may waive any condition contained in
Section 5.2 and Carnival may waive any condition contained in Section 5.3.

   7.4  Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or
delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege. Except as otherwise herein provided, the rights and
remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or
remedies provided by Law.

   7.9  Severability.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any
provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any
circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable
provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be

Governance Agreement and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the
application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be
affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or
unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or

reference shall be to a Section of or Exhibit to this Agreement unless
otherwise indicated. Whenever the words "include," "includes" or "including"
are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words

be deemed to be "material" only if it is material to the Party and its

that agreement or document as amended, novated, supplemented, varied or
replaced from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by this Agreement.
A reference to any legislation (including any listing rules of a stock exchange
or voluntary codes) or to any provision of any legislation includes any
modification or re-enactment of it, any legislative provision substituted for
it and all rules and regulations and statutory instruments promulgated and

taken to imply that P&O Princess or Carnival have agreed to dispose of or to
acquire any interest in the assets or undertakings of either of them. The

Schedules hereto) has been drafted jointly by the parties hereto and agree that
this Agreement will not be construed against any party as a result of any role

law or otherwise, and any purported assignment in violation of this provision
shall be void.

   7.12  No Partnership.  Neither this Agreement nor the DLC Transactions are
intended for any legal, tax or other purpose to (i) alter the status of P&O
Princess and Carnival as separate, independent entities (taxed respectively and
exclusively as a United Kingdom and a Panamanian non-resident corporation),
(ii) result in any of Carnival, P&O Princess, their respective Subsidiaries, or
their respective shareholders being treated as creating an entity or otherwise
entering into any partnership, joint venture, association or agency
relationship, or (iii) give either Party (or its respective Subsidiaries or
shareholders) any legal or beneficial ownership interest in the assets or
income of the other Party, and shall not be construed as having such effect.



                                      36


   7.13  Special Shares.  The parties agree for all United States federal
income tax purposes to treat both the Carnival Special Share and the P&O
Princess Special Share as not constituting stock or any other equity interest
in Carnival or P&O Princess or any other entity.

   IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
the duly authorized officers of Carnival and P&O Princess as of the date hereof.

2. Boards of P&O Princess and Carnival

    2.1Board Principles

       P&O Princess and Carnival agree that the following principles are
       essential to the implementation, management and operation of the DLC
       Structure:

       (A)P&O Princess and Carnival must operate as if they were a single
          unified economic entity, through boards of directors which comprise
          exactly the same individuals and a unified senior executive
          management, and the Combined Shareholders shall be treated as if they
          were shareholders of a combined enterprise; and

       (B)the directors of P&O Princess and Carnival shall, in addition to
          their duties to the company concerned, have regard to the interests
          of the other company and both the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary
          Shares and the holders of Carnival Common Stock as if the two
          companies were a single unified legal entity.

    2.2Board Composition

       Each of Carnival and P&O Princess will therefore do (and will, to the
       extent it is able, procure that each member of its Group will do) all
       acts and things necessary and within their respective powers to ensure
       that at all times the Board of P&O Princess and the Board of Carnival
       comprise exactly the same individuals.

    2.3Indemnification of Directors

       Each of Carnival and P&O Princess will take all actions necessary or
       desirable to ensure that the directors of each company shall be
       indemnified by such company and the other company for any acts or
       omissions by such directors in their capacity as a director of such
       company, to the maximum permitted by Applicable Regulations PROVIDED
       THAT nothing in this paragraph shall affect the obligations provided for
       in Section 4.8.1 (Director and Officer Liability) of the Implementation
       Agreement.

3. Equalization of Distributions

    3.1Equalization Principle

       3.1.1  Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, neither
              Carnival nor P&O Princess shall pay or make any Distribution in
              cash unless the other company also pays or makes a Distribution
              in cash at or about the same time and the ratio of the
              Equalization Distribution Amount so paid or made by Carnival to
              the Equalization Distribution Amount so paid or made by P&O
              Princess (converted, if applicable, at



                                      10

              the Applicable Exchange Rate for such Distributions and rounded
              to five decimal places) equals the Equalization Ratio in effect
              on the Distribution Determination Date for such Distributions
              (each, an "Equivalent Distribution")

       3.1.2  Subject to Clause 3.1.3, neither Carnival nor P&O Princess shall
              declare or otherwise become obligated to pay or make a
              Distribution in cash unless (i) on the date on which such
              declaration is made or such obligation is created, the other
              company has sufficient Distributable Reserves to make an
              Equivalent Distribution with respect to such Distribution; or
              (ii) such company agrees to pay, and does pay, to the other
              company (before such other company pays or makes such
              Distribution) the minimum amount required by the other company so
              that it will have sufficient Distributable Reserves to pay or
              make such an Equivalent Distribution. Notwithstanding compliance
              with the preceding sentence, if either of Carnival or P&O
              Princess shall have declared or otherwise become obligated to pay
              or make an Equivalent Distribution and does not have sufficient
              Distributable Reserves to pay or make such Equivalent
              Distribution when due, then the other company shall pay to such
              company the minimum amount required by such company so that it
              will have sufficient Distributable Reserves to pay or make such
              Equivalent Distribution; PROVIDED HOWEVER that if the other
              company does not have sufficient Distributable Reserves to pay or
              make in full both the Equivalent Distribution that it declared or
              became obligated to make and the payment required by this
              sentence, then (1) such other company shall only pay or make the
              portion of that Equivalent Distribution (and any related payment
              that would have been required by this sentence in respect of such
              portion if it were the entire Equivalent Distribution that it had
              declared or became obligated to make) that it can make out of its
              Distributable Reserves; and (2) the first company shall only pay
              or make the portion of its Equivalent Distribution that it can
              make out of its Distributable Reserves following receipt of such
              payment.

       3.1.3  For the purposes of Clause 3.1.2, the amount a company is
              required to pay the other company shall be determined after
              taking into account all Taxes payable by, and all Tax Benefits
              of, the parties with respect to the payment or receipt of such
              payment and any such payment may be made on the Equalization
              Share issued by the paying party if both Boards deem it
              appropriate.

    3.2Timing of Equalized Distributions

       The parties agree that, insofar as is practical, the Boards of P&O
       Princess and Carnival shall:

       (A)in relation to any proposed cash Distribution, agree the amount of
          the Equivalent Distribution to be made by each company;

       (B)determine to pay or recommend to pay Equivalent Distributions at
          Board meetings convened as close in time to each other as is
          practicable;

       (C)announce and pay their Equivalent Distributions simultaneously or as
          close in time as is practicable;

       (D)ensure that the record dates for receipt of the Equivalent
          Distributions are on the same date; and

       (E)generally co-ordinate the timing of all other aspects of the payment
          or making of Equivalent Distributions.

4. Capital Actions

    4.1Equalization Principle

       The capital of the DLC Structure is to be deployed and managed in the
       most effective way for the benefit of the Combined Shareholders. Solely
       for purposes of construing the provisions of



                                      11

       this Clause 4 and the Schedule, and without providing an independent
       basis for requiring any adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number or
       the Equalization Ratio or other action hereunder, Carnival and P&O
       Princess further intend to undertake Actions in such a way as will not
       give rise to a materially different financial effect as between the
       interests of the holders of Carnival Common Stock and the interests of
       the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, unless approved as a Class
       Rights Action.

    4.2Automatic Adjustment

       If any Action by Carnival or P&O Princess is covered by the Schedule,
       then an automatic adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number (and
       therefore the Equalization Ratio) will occur pursuant to such Schedule
       unless the Board of the other company, in its sole discretion,
       undertakes:

       (A)a Matching Action; or

       (B)an alternative to such automatic adjustment, that has been approved
          as such by a Class Rights Action,

       it being understood that the Board of the other company is under no
       obligation to undertake any such Matching Action or to seek approval as
       a Class Rights Action of any such alternative.

    4.3Other Actions

       If any Action by Carnival or P&O Princess is not covered by the
       Schedule, then no automatic adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number
       or the Equalization Ratio will occur but the Board of the other company
       shall have the right (in its sole discretion), but not the obligation
       (i) to undertake a Matching Action; or (ii) to seek approval of an
       adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number (and therefore the
       Equalization Ratio) as a Class Rights Action in order to ensure that the
       proposed Action does not give rise to materially different financial
       effects as between the interests of the holders of Carnival Common Stock
       and the interests of holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares. In all
       cases, the Boards of P&O Princess and Carnival will co-operate in
       deciding what (if any) Actions or Matching Actions to undertake.

    4.4No Adjustment Required

       Notwithstanding any other provision of this Clause 4 or the Schedule, no
       adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number or the Equalization Ratio
       will be required on the following Actions:

       (A)grants or issuances by Carnival or P&O Princess of their equity
          securities, or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or
          exercisable for, their equity securities ("equity equivalents"),
          under scrip dividend or dividend reinvestment schemes where the
          market value of the equity securities or equity equivalents granted
          or issued (determined in the manner customary for such schemes or
          plans in the jurisdictions in which they operate) is equal to, or
          less than, the cash amount of the dividend waived or reinvested;

       (B)issuances of equity securities or equity equivalents by either P&O
          Princess or Carnival pursuant to a share or stock option or purchase
          or other benefit plan to or on behalf of any one or more of the
          directors, officers, employees or consultants (in their capacity as
          such) of such company or any of its Subsidiaries, which plans are
          either:

           (i)in existence prior to the date of this Agreement; or



                                      12


          (ii)approved by the relevant Board and as otherwise required by
              Applicable Regulations;

       (C)any issuance of Carnival Common Stock under the Carnival Convertible
          Instruments;

       (D)other issuances by Carnival or P&O Princess of its equity securities
          or equity equivalents to any person, including for acquisitions,
          other than by way of rights to the holders of its Shares as a class;

    4.5Matching Action

       For the purposes of this Agreement, a "Matching Action" means, in
       relation to an Action in respect of the holders of Shares of Carnival or

       of Shares in the other company which the Board of such other company
       determines (i) has a financial effect on the holders of the Shares of
       such other company equivalent (but not necessarily identical) to the
       financial effect of the Primary Action on the holders of Shares of the
       company undertaking the Primary Action; and (ii) does not materially
       disadvantage the holders of the Shares of either company. In making the
       determination referred to in the preceding sentence:

       (A)the Board of such other company shall consider the then existing
          Equalization Ratio, the timing of the Primary Action and any proposed
          Matching Action, and any other relevant circumstances;



                                      13


       (B)in relation to any Action, when calculating any economic return to
          the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares or Carnival Common Stock,
          any Tax or Tax Benefit shall be disregarded; and

       (C)the Boards of Carnival and P&O Princess shall have no obligation to
          take into account any fluctuations in exchange rates or in the market
          value of any securities or any other changes in circumstances arising
          after the date on which the Boards of Carnival and P&O Princess, as
          the case may be, decide to undertake a particular Matching Action.

    4.6Boards' Decisions Final

       The decision as to whether an Action is a Matching Action shall be a
       decision solely for the Boards of P&O Princess and Carnival, which may
       obtain appropriate professional advice in connection with such
       determination if they, in their sole discretion, consider it to be
       appropriate. Any such decision made by the Boards of P&O Princess and
       Carnival in accordance with this Clause 4 shall be final and binding.

          of both companies at or about the same time with the purpose or
          effect of no longer continuing the operation of the businesses of the
          companies as a combined going concern and not as part of a scheme,
          plan, transaction, or series of related transactions the primary
          purpose or effect of which is to reconstitute all or a substantial

       (F)any amendment to, removal or alteration of the effect of (which shall
          include the ratification of any breach of) Article XII or XIII of the
          Carnival Articles that would cause, or at the time of implementation
          would be reasonably likely to cause, an Exchange Event described in
          clause (a) of the definition of such term in the P&O Princess
          Articles of Association to occur; and

       (G)the doing of anything which the Boards of Carnival and P&O Princess

          discretion, should be approved as a Class Rights Action,

       each of them agrees with the other that it shall only take such action
       after it has been approved as a Class Rights Action in accordance with
       this Clause 6.

    6.2Approvals of Class Rights Action

       A Class Rights Action shall require approval by a Majority Resolution of

       approved as a Supermajority Resolution by the relevant company or
       companies to which such requirement applies (the "Required Majority").

    6.3Class Rights Procedure

       A Class Rights Action must be approved separately by the Required

       of any other class of shares of Carnival that are entitled to vote
       pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or the Carnival Articles and
       By-laws; and (ii) the holders of the P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and
       the holders of any other class of shares of P&O Princess that are
       entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or the P&O
       Princess Memorandum and Articles. Each of Carnival and P&O Princess will
       convene a shareholders meeting at which the holders of its Shares and
       the holder of its



                                      17

       Special Voting Share (and the holders of any other relevant class of
       shares) may vote upon the Class Rights Action together as a single class
       on a poll; PROVIDED THAT the holder of the relevant Special Voting Share
       shall not vote on such resolution unless the Class Rights Action is not
       approved by the Required Majority of the holders of Shares (and any
       other relevant class of shares) of the other company, in which case the
       holder of the Special Voting Share shall cast all votes to which the
       Special Voting Share is entitled against such resolution in accordance
       with the Carnival Articles and By-laws (in the case of the Carnival

    7.2Poll

       Each of P&O Princess and Carnival agrees with the other that any

       which the holder of the P&O Princess Special Voting Share, or the holder
       of the Carnival Special Voting Share, is or may be entitled to vote
       shall be decided on by a poll (i.e. by tabulation of individual votes)
       and not, for the avoidance of doubt, on a show of hands.

    7.3Timing of Poll

       7.3.1  P&O Princess agrees with Carnival that any poll in which the
              holder of the P&O Princess Special Voting Share is or may be
              entitled to vote shall (as regards the P&O Princess Special
              Voting Share) be kept open for such time as to allow the
              corresponding general meeting of Carnival to be held and for the
              votes attaching to the P&O Princess Special Voting Share to be
              calculated and cast on such poll, although such poll may be
              closed earlier in respect of shares of other classes.

       7.3.2  Carnival agrees with P&O Princess that any poll on which the
              holder of the Carnival Special Voting Share is or may be entitled
              to vote shall (as regards the Carnival Special Voting Share) be
              kept open for such time as to allow the corresponding general
              meeting of P&O Princess to be held and for the votes attaching to
              the Carnival Special Voting Share to be calculated and cast on
              such poll, although such poll may be closed earlier in respect of
              shares of other classes.

       The Boards of P&O Princess and Carnival may by agreement (subject to
       Applicable Regulations):

       (A)decide to seek the approval of the shareholders (or any class of
          shareholders) of either or both of P&O Princess and Carnival for any
          matter that would not otherwise require such approval;

    7.5Procedural Resolutions

       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
       resolutions of Carnival or P&O Princess of a procedural or technical
       nature (and which do not adversely affect the other company or its
       shareholders in any material respect) shall not constitute Joint
       Electorate Actions or Class Rights Actions and will be voted on by the
       relevant company's shareholders voting separately, and neither Special
       Voting Share will have any vote on those resolutions. Resolutions which
       will constitute resolutions of a procedural or technical nature may
       include any resolution:

       (A)that certain people be allowed to attend or excluded from attending
          the meeting;

   Each of P&O Princess and Carnival will, and so far as it is able will ensure
   that each of its Subsidiaries will, ensure that it is in a position to
   comply with obligations imposed on it by all stock exchanges on which either
   or both of the parties' shares (or other securities or depository receipts
   representing such shares or securities) are from time to time listed, quoted
   or traded.

10.Liquidation

     10.1Liquidation Principle

         If either or both of Carnival and/or P&O Princess goes into any
         voluntary or involuntary Liquidation, Carnival and P&O Princess will,
         subject to Clause 10.2 below, make and receive such payments or take
         such other actions required to ensure that the holders of Shares
         (which, for the avoidance of doubt in this Clause 10 do not include
         the holders of Disenfranchised Shares) of each entity would, had each
         entity gone into Liquidation on the same date, be entitled to receive
         a Liquidation Distribution which is equivalent on a per Share basis in
         accordance with the then existing Equalization Ratio, having regard to
         the Liquidation Exchange Rate but ignoring any shareholder Tax or Tax
         Benefit.

     10.2Liquidation Procedure

         10.2.1 To establish the amount payable under Clause 10.1, each of
                Carnival and P&O Princess will determine the amount of assets
                (if any) it will have available for distribution in a
                Liquidation on the date of Liquidation (or notional date of
                Liquidation) to holders of its Shares after payment of all its
                debts and other financial obligations, including any tax costs
                associated with the realisation of any assets on a Liquidation
                and any payments due on any preference shares (its "Net
                Assets"). To the extent that the Net Assets of one company
                would enable it to make a Liquidation Distribution to the
                holders of its Shares that is greater than the Liquidation
                Distribution that the other company could pay from its Net
                Assets to the holders of its Shares, adjusting such comparative
                Liquidation Distribution in accordance with the then existing
                Equalization Ratio and having regard to the Liquidation
                Exchange Rate, but ignoring any shareholder Tax (including any
                withholding Tax required to be deducted by the company
                concerned) or Tax Benefit, then, subject to Clause 10.2.2, such
                company will make a balancing payment (or take any other
                balancing action described in Clause 10.3 below) in such amount
                as will ensure that both companies may make equivalent
                Liquidation Distributions to the holders of their Shares in
                accordance with the then existing Equalization Ratio and having
                regard to the Liquidation Exchange Rate, but ignoring any
                shareholder Tax (including any withholding Tax required to be
                deducted by the company concerned) or Tax Benefit, PROVIDED
                ALWAYS THAT no company need make a balancing payment (or take
                any other action) as described in this Clause 10.2 if it would
                result in neither the holders of Carnival Common Stock nor the
                holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares being entitled to
                receive any Liquidation Distribution at all.

         10.2.2 For purposes of Clause 10.2.1, the amount a company is required
                to pay the other company shall be determined after taking into
                account all Taxes payable by, and all Tax credits, losses or
                deductions of, the parties with respect to the payment or
                receipt of such payment and any such payment may be made on the
                Equalization Share issued by the paying party if both Boards
                deem it appropriate.

     10.3Liquidation Actions

         In giving effect to the principle regarding a Liquidation of Carnival
         and/or P&O Princess described above, Carnival and P&O Princess shall
         take such action as may be required to give effect to that principle,
         which may include:

         (A) making a payment (of cash or in specie) to the other company;

         (B) issuing shares (which may include the Equalization Share) to the
             other party or to holders of Shares of the other party and making
             a distribution or return on such Shares; or

         (C) taking any other action that the Boards of Carnival and P&O
             Princess shall both consider appropriate to give effect to that
             principle.

         Any action other than a payment of cash by one company to the other
         shall require the prior approval of the Boards of both companies.

11.Termination

   Either Carnival or P&O Princess may terminate this Agreement:

    (A)on the mutual agreement of both parties (upon approval as a Class Rights
       Action);



                                      20

    (B)if either party becomes a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the other; or

    (C)after all Liquidation obligations under Clause 10 have been satisfied.

12.Consequences of Termination

     12.1Non Dual-Listed Group

         In any combination of Carnival and P&O Princess into a single non
         dual-listed group, the consideration to be received by the holders of
         Shares in the two companies will be calculated by reference to the
         applicable Equalization Ratio.

     12.2Other Circumstances

         12.2.1 In any other circumstances of termination of the DLC Structure,
                the Boards of Carnival and P&O Princess will use their
                reasonable endeavours to agree a termination proposal to be put
                to their shareholders which the Boards consider to be equitable
                to both the holders of Carnival Common Stock and the holders of
                P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, at the applicable Equalization
                Ratio and using an exchange rate agreed by the parties (failing
                which, such exchange rate to be determined by an independent
                accounting firm). If the Boards cannot agree on the proposal to
                be put to their respective holders of Shares, each Board will
                appoint an independent accounting firm to establish the value
                of its company as at the proposed date of termination. The two
                accounting firms will use the same principles of valuation. If
                the accounting firms fail to agree on each other's valuation of
                any company, then a third independent accounting firm shall be
                appointed to finally determine the value of such company or
                companies. If, subject to Clause 12.2.2, the agreed/determined
                respective values of each company on a per Share basis (using
                the agreed or determined exchange rate) are not equivalent in
                accordance with the Equalization Ratio at the proposed date of
                termination then a balancing payment, or other balancing action
                agreed by the companies, will be made by one company to the
                other as appropriate in such amount as will ensure that such
                values are equivalent in accordance with such Equalization
                Ratio.

         12.2.2 For purposes of Clause 12.2.1, the amount a company is required
                to pay the other company shall be determined after taking into
                account all Taxes payable by, and all Tax credits, losses or
                deductions of, the parties with respect to the payment or
                receipt of such payment and any such payment may be made on the
                Equalization Share issued by the paying party if both Boards
                deem it appropriate.

13.Personal rights only

     13.1Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 2001

         The parties to this Agreement do not intend that any term of this

     13.2Personal rights

         For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Agreement are

         shareholder or creditor of P&O Princess or Carnival). These
         undertakings are not assignable, and cannot be subject to a mortgage,
         charge, pledge, encumbrance or other security interest. These
         undertakings do not survive any termination of this



                                      21

         Agreement. It is fundamental to the agreement of each of P&O Princess
         and Carnival to give these undertakings that they should be relied on
         solely by the other, and it is fundamental to the agreement of each of
         P&O Princess and Carnival to accept these undertakings that they
         should be performed solely by the other.

14.Issue of Equalization Shares

   The parties agree that the Board of P&O Princess and the Board of Carnival
   may agree to the issue of the P&O Princess Equalization Share to a member of
   the Carnival Group (against the nominal value of that share) and of the
   Carnival Equalization Share to a member of the P&O Princess Group (against
   the nominal value of that share), but that neither Carnival or P&O Princess
   shall issue its Equalization Share unless the Board of Carnival and the
   Board of P&O Princess shall have agreed to such issue.

15.Relationship with other documents

   In the event of any conflict between this Agreement on the one hand and on
   the other hand either of the P&O Princess Memorandum and Articles or the
   Carnival Articles and By-laws, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail and
   the parties shall use their best endeavours to ensure that any required
   amendment to the P&O Princess Memorandum and Articles or the Carnival
   Articles and By-laws, as is appropriate, is proposed at meetings of P&O
   Princess and/or as the case may be Carnival in order to conform it or them
   with the provisions of this Agreement.

16.Miscellaneous

     16.1Regulatory

         The parties will co-operate with each other from time to time to
         ensure that all information necessary or desirable for the making of

         upon) any notifications or filings made in respect of this Agreement,
         or the transactions contemplated hereunder, is supplied to the party
         dealing with such notification and filings and that they are properly,
         accurately and promptly made.

         under this Agreement in whole or in part without the approval of the
         other party.

     16.3No waiver

         No waiver by a party of a failure or failures by the other party to
         perform any provision of this Agreement shall operate or be construed
         as a waiver in respect of any other or further failure whether of a
         like or different character.

     16.4No partnership

         Neither this Agreement nor the DLC Transactions are intended for any
         legal, tax or other purpose to (i) alter the status of P&O Princess
         and Carnival as separate, independent entities (taxed respectively and
         exclusively as a United Kingdom and a Panamanian non-resident
         corporation), (ii) result in any of Carnival, P&O Princess, their
         respective Subsidiaries, or their respective shareholders being
         treated as creating an entity or otherwise entering into any
         partnership, joint venture, association or agency relationship, or
         (iii) give either party (or its respective Subsidiaries or
         shareholders) any legal or beneficial ownership interest in the assets
         or income of the other party, and shall not be construed as having
         such effect.



                                      22

     16.5Applicable Regulations

         Each of the obligations of the parties hereto shall be subject to any
         Applicable Regulations as in force from time to time. To the extent
         not prohibited by law, the parties will do all things necessary to
         remedy any situation where Applicable Regulations prevent any party
         from performing its obligations hereunder.

     16.6Severance

         If any of the provisions of this Agreement is or becomes invalid,
         illegal or unenforceable under any relevant law, the validity,
         legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in
         any way be affected or impaired. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
         parties shall thereupon negotiate in good faith in order to agree the
         terms of a mutually satisfactory provision, achieving as nearly as
         possible the same commercial effect, to be substituted for the
         provision found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

     16.7Amendment

         Any amendment to or termination of this Agreement shall be made in
         writing signed by duly authorised representatives of P&O Princess and
         Carnival. Any amendments to this Agreement which are formal or
         technical in nature and which are not materially prejudicial to the
         interests of the shareholders of either party or are necessary to
         correct any inconsistency or manifest error may be agreed between the
         Board of P&O Princess and the Board of Carnival. Any other amendment
         to this Agreement shall, for the avoidance of doubt, require approval
         by a Class Rights Action.

   which taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. Either
   party may enter into this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

19.Governing Law

   laws of the Isle of Man.

20.Arbitration

    (A)Any and all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or in
       connection with this Agreement, any provision hereof, or any alleged
       breach hereof, and any and all disputes, controversies or claims
       relating to the validity of this Agreement (all of which are referred to
       herein as "Disputes"), even though some or all of such Disputes are
       alleged to be extra-contractual in nature, whether such Disputes sound
       in contract, tort or otherwise, at law or in equity, whether for
       damages, specific performance or other relief, shall be finally and
       exclusively determined by final and binding arbitration in accordance
       with this Clause 20.



                                      23


    (B)The arbitral tribunal (the "Tribunal") shall be composed of three
       arbitrators, which shall be appointed as follows: each party shall have
       the right to appoint one arbitrator; the two arbitrators so appointed
       shall then appoint a third arbitrator who shall serve as the Chairman of
       the Tribunal. A person or persons, entitled to appoint an arbitrator,
       shall appoint such arbitrator within ten (10) days of receiving notice
       from a party of the commencement of an arbitration, failing which such
       arbitrator shall, at the written request of either party, be appointed
       by the International Chamber of Commerce. At the initiation of a
       proceeding and upon the convening of the Tribunal, the arbitrators shall
       take an oath of neutrality and shall decide the matters presented to
       them based upon the evidence submitted in the proceeding and without
       regard to the origin or circumstances of their appointment or selection
       for service on the Tribunal.

    (C)The construction and interpretation of this Clause 20, and all rules of
       conduct of any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Clause 20
       (including procedural and evidentiary matters), shall be determined by
       the Tribunal. Unless otherwise unanimously agreed by the arbitrators,
       the venue of the arbitration shall be Miami, Florida, USA.

    (D)The Tribunal shall conduct a hearing as soon as reasonably practicable
       after a matter has been submitted for arbitration by a party and the
       members of the Tribunal have been selected. As the Tribunal may direct
       and without the necessity of subpoenas or other court orders, the
       parties shall make their agents, employees and witnesses available upon
       reasonable notice at reasonable times for deposition or for testimony at
       the hearing and shall respond to requests for documents. An award
       completely disposing of all Disputes (a "Final Award") shall be rendered
       by the Tribunal as soon as reasonably practicable after the hearing. The
       Tribunal shall not be required to submit a detailed statement of its
       reasons, but shall set forth concisely in the Final Award the amounts,
       actions, contractual responsibilities or other remedial conclusions that
       the Tribunal determines to be appropriate.

    (E)Each party acknowledges and agrees that in the event either party
       breaches any of its obligations under this Agreement, the other party
       would be irreparably harmed and could not be made whole by monetary
       damages alone. Both parties accordingly agree that the Tribunal shall
       have the authority to grant any party all appropriate non-monetary
       relief, including ordering a breaching party to comply fully with its
       obligations under the Agreement, ordering specific performance or
       granting temporary or permanent injunctive relief; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
       that nothing in this Clause 20 shall be construed to limit the Tribunal
       in awarding monetary damages, whether as a sole remedy or together with
       remedies for specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

    (F)Any award made by the Tribunal shall be final and binding upon each
       party, each of which expressly waives all right to appeal or recourse to
       any court. The Final Award may be confirmed, and a judgement entered or
       enforced, in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States or
       the United Kingdom.

    (G)The fees and expenses of the arbitrators shall be borne equally by the
       parties, but the Final Award may include such allocations and awards of
       the arbitrators' fees and expenses as the Tribunal determines is
       appropriate.

IN WITNESS whereof this Agreement has been executed on the date first written
above.



                                      24


                                   Schedule

            Automatic Adjustments to the Carnival Equivalent Number

1. Automatic Adjustments

    1.1Rights issue of Shares

       If either Carnival or P&O Princess (the "Relevant Company") shall offer
       its Shares to the holders of its Shares as a class by way of rights at
       less than the Current Market Price of such Shares, the Carnival
       Equivalent Number shall be adjusted by:

       (i)dividing the Carnival Equivalent Number by the following fraction
          where Carnival is the Relevant Company; and

      (ii)multiplying the Carnival Equivalent Number by the following fraction
          where P&O Princess is the Relevant Company:



                            K + L where L = Q   M
                            -----           -
                                       
                            K + M           P


       where:

       K is the number of Shares of the Relevant Company which rank for the
       relevant offer;

       M is the aggregate number of Shares being offered to the holders of
       Shares of the Relevant Company;

       P is the Current Market Price of one Share of the Relevant Company; and

       Q is the price per Share being offered to the holders of Shares of the
       Relevant Company.

       The adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number shall become effective
       from the later of the time at which the Shares of the Relevant Company
       are first traded ex-rights and the time at which the issue of the Shares
       becomes wholly unconditional.

    1.2Rights issue of other securities

       If the Relevant Company shall offer any securities (other than a rights
       issue of Shares described in paragraph 1.1 of this Schedule) to holders
       of its Shares as a class by way of rights, or grant to such shareholders
       as a class by way of rights, any options, warrants or other rights to
       subscribe for, purchase or sell any securities, Carnival Equivalent
       Number shall be adjusted by:

       (i)dividing the Carnival Equivalent Number by the following fraction
          where Carnival is the Relevant Company; and

      (ii)multiplying the Carnival Equivalent Number by the following fraction
          where P&O Princess is the Relevant Company:

                                     R - S
                                     -----
                                       R

       where:

       R is the Current Market Price of one Share; and

       S is the estimated Fair Market Value (calculated in the same currency as
       the Shares described in R above) of the portion of the rights
       attributable to one Share of the Relevant Company over any five
       consecutive Dealing Days determined by the Board of the Relevant Company
       during the twenty Dealing Days preceding the date on which the Shares
       are first traded ex-rights.



                                      25


       The adjustment to the Carnival Equivalent Number shall become effective
       from the later of the time at which the Shares of the Relevant Company
       are first traded ex-rights and the time at which the issue of the Shares
       becomes wholly unconditional.

    1.3Non cash distributions and share repurchases

       If the Relevant Company shall implement (i) any distribution of any
       non-cash assets; or (ii) any repurchase of its Shares involving an offer
       made to all or substantially all of its holders of Shares to repurchase
       their Shares at a premium to the Current Market Price of such shares,
       the Carnival Equivalent Number shall be adjusted by:

       (i)dividing the Carnival Equivalent Number by the following fraction
          where Carnival is the Relevant Company; and

      (ii)multiplying the Carnival Equivalent Number by the following fraction
          where P&O Princess is the Relevant Company:



                                        V
                                    T - U
                                    --- -

              than the percentage of the number of votes as would be necessary
              to defeat that Majority Resolution if the total votes capable of
              being cast by the outstanding Carnival Common Stock and other
              class of shares of Carnival that are entitled to vote pursuant to
              Applicable Regulations and/or the Carnival Constitution

              and

              cast such number of votes representing the largest whole

              votes as would be necessary to defeat a Supermajority Resolution
              if the total votes capable of being cast by the outstanding
              Carnival Common Stock and other class of shares of Carnival that
              are entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or
              the Carnival Constitution (excluding the Carnival Special Voting
              Share) were cast in favour of the resolution at the Carnival
              Parallel Shareholder Meeting.

                                      11



          By way of further explanation, expressed as a formula, the Carnival
          Special Voting Share shall be entitled to cast the following number
          of votes:



                --                                                 --
                  One percentage point less than the minimum
                    percent needed to defeat the resolution
                    -------------------------------------
                                                                
                  100 percent -- Minimum percent needed              X       Number of votes entitled
                            to  defeat the resolution                        to be cast (excluding the
                                                                           Carnival Special Voting Share)
                --                                                 --


          Accordingly, for a Majority Resolution, 50 percent is the minimum
          percent needed to defeat the resolution, and the figure in brackets
          would be 98 percent. In the event that a Supermajority Resolution is
          required to carry in excess of 75 percent of the votes cast, then 25
          percent would be the minimum percent needed to defeat the resolution,
          and the figure in brackets would be 32 percent.

       (b)The P&O Princess Trustee agrees with Carnival and P&O Princess that
          where it has been notified by Carnival in accordance with clause 3.1
          that a Class Rights Action has (pursuant to the Carnival Constitution
          and/or Applicable Regulations) not been approved by the requisite
          majority of votes at a Carnival meeting of shareholders then it will
          exercise the voting rights attached to the P&O Princess Special
          Voting Share in accordance with the certificate delivered under
          clause 3.1, which certificate shall state the number of votes
          attaching to the P&O Princess Special Voting Share as set forth below:

           (i)if the resolution needs to be passed by an ordinary resolution,
              it shall vote the P&O Princess Special Voting Share to cast such
              number of votes representing the largest whole percentage that is
              less than the percentage of the number of votes as would be
              necessary to defeat an ordinary resolution if the total votes
              capable of being cast by the outstanding P&O Princess Ordinary
              Shares and other class of shares of P&O Princess that are
              entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or the
              P&O Princess Articles (excluding the P&O Princess Special Voting
              Share) were cast in favour of the resolution at the P&O Princess
              Parallel Shareholder Meeting; and

          (ii)if the resolution needs to be passed by a Special Resolution, it
              shall vote the P&O Princess Special Voting Share to cast such
              number of votes representing the largest whole percentage that is
              less than the percentage of the number of votes as would be
              necessary to defeat a Special Resolution if the total votes
              capable of being cast by the outstanding P&O Princess Ordinary
              Shares and other class of shares of P&O Princess that are
              entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or the
              P&O Princess Articles (excluding the P&O Princess Special Voting
              Share) were cast in favour of the resolution at the P&O Princess
              Parallel Shareholder Meeting.

          By way of further explanation, expressed as a formula, the P&O
          Princess Special Voting Share shall be entitled to cast the following
          number of votes:



                --                                                 --
                  One percentage point less than the minimum
                    percent needed to defeat the resolution
                    -------------------------------------
                                                                
                  100 percent -- Minimum percent needed              X       Number of votes entitled
                            to  defeat the resolution                        to be cast (excluding the
                                                                           Carnival Special Voting Share)
                --                                                 --


          Accordingly, for an ordinary resolution, 50 percent is the minimum
          percent needed to defeat the resolution, and the figure in brackets
          would be 98 percent. In the event that a Special Resolution is
          required to carry 75 percent of the votes cast, then 25.01 (rounded

                                      12



          down to the nearest hundredth) percent would be the minimum percent
          needed to defeat the resolution, and the figure in brackets would be
          approximately 32 percent.

       (a)Carnival SVC is entitled to rely on a certificate from a duly
          authorised officer of Carnival and a duly authorised officer of P&O

          with the Carnival Constitution and Applicable Regulations and that
          the resolution as amended is the Equivalent Resolution to the

          17.5.

       (b)The P&O Princess Trustee is entitled to rely on a certificate from a
          duly authorised officer of P&O Princess and a duly authorised officer
          of Carnival that for all purposes of this Deed an amendment to a
          resolution to approve a Joint Electorate Action is made in accordance
          with the P&O Princess Articles and Applicable Regulations and that
          the resolution as amended is the Equivalent Resolution to the
          resolution considered at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of
          Carnival. Such certificate shall be given in accordance with clause
          17.5.

    4.6No discretion as to voting

       Each of Carnival SVC and the P&O Princess Trustee agrees with Carnival
       and P&O Princess that it has no discretion as to how to vote the P&O
       Princess Special Voting Share and/or the Carnival Special Voting Share

       the Chairman of the relevant shareholder meeting that a resolution is a
       procedural or technical resolution (in accordance with the P&O Princess
       Articles or the Carnival Constitution (as applicable)) and that the
       Carnival Special Voting Share or the P&O Princess Special Voting Share
       (as applicable) will not have any votes in respect of such resolution.
       If a resolution is proposed for the first time during a meeting of
       shareholders of either P&O Princess or Carnival (whereby "proposed for
       the first time" means it was not set out in the notice of the relevant
       shareholders' meeting) and is determined by the Chairman of the relevant
       shareholder meeting (in accordance with the P&O Princess Articles or the
       Carnival Constitution (as applicable)) not to be a resolution of a
       procedural or technical nature then, if such resolution is to be voted
       on by shareholders, it will be voted on in the same way as any other
       Joint Electorate Action or Class Rights Action (as applicable) (and, for
       the avoidance of doubt, proper notice of such resolution will first be
       given to shareholders, including to Carnival SVC and the P&O Princess

     17.1No assignment

         This Deed shall not be assignable by operation of law or otherwise,
         and any purported assignment (whether in whole or in part) in
         violation of this provision shall be void.

     17.2No partnership or agency

         This Deed is not intended to alter the status of the parties as
         separate, independent entities, to create a partnership, joint venture
         or agency relationship between the parties or their respective
         Subsidiaries or shareholders, or to give any party (or its respective
         Subsidiaries or shareholders) any legal or beneficial ownership
         interest in the assets or income of the other parties, and they shall
         not be construed as having that effect.

     17.3Intent of the Parties

         The parties intend that the P&O Princess SVT shall at all times be
         classified for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes as an
         "investment trust" under the Code and Treasury Regulation
         301.7701-4(c) and, without limitation, as a grantor trust under
         Subpart E, Part I of Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which the
         Shareholders will be considered to own the Trust Property, as defined
         in the Voting Trust Deed, for U.S. federal, state and local income tax
         purposes, and not as a trust or association taxable as a corporation
         or as a partnership. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the
         provisions of this Deed shall be interpreted to further this intention
         and powers granted as well as obligations undertaken pursuant to this
         Deed shall be construed so as to further such intent. No provision of
         this Deed shall be of any force or effect if such provision would
         result in the P&O Princess SVT being treated in a manner inconsistent
         with the intention of the parties as set forth in this clause 17.3.

   liquidation and distribution of the assets of the Corporation and in respect

increase or decrease the number of shares of any such class or series to the
extent permitted by the Corporation Law. Any of the voting powers,
designations, preferences, rights and qualifications, limitations or
restrictions of any such series of Preferred Stock may be made dependent upon
facts ascertainable outside of the resolution or resolutions providing for the
issue of such Preferred Stock adopted by the Board pursuant to the authority
vested in it by this Article V, provided that the manner in which such facts

Shares of Preferred Stock of any series that have been redeemed (whether
through the operation of a sinking fund or otherwise) or that if convertible or
exchangeable, have been converted into or exchanged for shares of any other
class or classes shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of
Preferred Stock of the same series and may be reissued as a part of the series
of which they were originally a part or may be reclassified and reissued as
part of a new series of shares of Preferred Stock to be created by resolution
or resolutions of the Board of Directors or as part of any other series of

   (c)  Carnival Special Voting Share.

      (1)  The Carnival Special Voting Share shall confer on the holder of such
   share the relevant rights and obligations set out in these Articles of
   Incorporation and the By-Laws. The Carnival Special Voting Share shall cease
   to confer any right to attend or vote at any meeting of the shareholders of
   the Corporation if either the Equalization Agreement is terminated or if a
   resolution to terminate the SVE Special Voting Deed is approved as a Class
   Rights Action.

      (2)  The Carnival Special Voting Share shall have the following voting
   rights:

          (A)  In relation to a resolution of the Corporation to approve a
       Joint Electorate Action at any meeting of the shareholders of the
       Corporation, the Carnival Special Voting Share shall carry:

             (i)  such number of votes in favor of the resolution as were cast
          in favor of the Equivalent Resolution at the Parallel Shareholder
          Meeting of P&O Princess by holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares
          and Other Voting Shares of P&O Princess;

             (ii)  such number of votes against the resolution as were cast
          against the Equivalent Resolution at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting
          of P&O Princess by holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other
          Voting Shares of P&O Princess; and

             (iii)  such number of abstentions as were recorded as abstentions
          from the Equivalent Resolution at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of
          P&O Princess by holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other
          Voting Shares of P&O Princess;

       in each case multiplied by the Carnival Equivalent Number in effect at
       the time such meeting of the shareholders of the Corporation is held and
       in each case rounded up to the nearest whole number, such votes to be
       cast by the holder of the Carnival Special Voting Share in accordance
       with the above provisions.

          (B)  In relation to a resolution of the Corporation to approve a
       Class Rights Action at any meeting of the shareholders of the
       Corporation:

             (i)  if the Equivalent Resolution is approved by the requisite
          majority (as determined in accordance with the P&O Princess Articles
          and Applicable Regulations) of the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary
          Shares and Other Voting Shares of P&O Princess at the Parallel
          Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess, then the Carnival Special Voting
          Share shall carry no votes; and

             (ii)  if the Equivalent Resolution is not approved by the
          requisite majority (as determined in accordance with the P&O Princess
          Articles and Applicable Regulations) of the holders of P&O Princess
          Ordinary Shares and Other Voting Shares of P&O Princess at the
          Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess, and (x) if the
          resolution needs to be passed by a Majority Resolution, then the
          Carnival Special Voting Share shall be entitled to cast such number
          of votes, representing the largest whole percentage that is less than
          the percentage of the number of votes as would be necessary to defeat
          a Majority Resolution if the total votes capable of being cast by the
          outstanding Carnival Common Stock and Other Voting Shares entitled to
          vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or the Carnival Articles
          and By-Laws (excluding the Carnival Special Voting Share) were cast
          in favour of the resolution at the meeting of the Corporation's
          shareholders, and all such votes shall be cast against approval of
          such resolution; or (y) if the resolution needs to be passed by a
          Supermajority Resolution, then the Carnival Special Voting Share
          shall be entitled to cast such number of votes, representing the
          largest whole percentage that is less than the percentage of the
          number of votes as would be necessary to defeat a Supermajority
          Resolution if the total votes capable of being cast by the outstanding

                                      5



          Carnival Common Stock and Other Voting Shares of Carnival that are
          entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations and/or the
          Carnival Articles and By-Laws (excluding the Carnival Special Voting
          Share) were cast in favour of the resolution at the meeting, and all
          such votes shall be cast against approval of such resolution.

          By way of further explanation, expressed as a formula, the Carnival
          Special Voting Share shall be entitled to cast the following number
          of votes:



                --                                                 --
                  One percentage point less than the minimum
                    percent needed to defeat the resolution
                    -------------------------------------
                                                                
                  100% percent -- Minimum percent                    X       Number of votes entitled
                            needed to  defeat the                            to be cast (excluding the
                            resolution                                     Carnival Special Voting Share)
                --                                                 --


          Accordingly, for a Majority Resolution, 50 percent is the minimum
          percent needed to defeat the resolution, and the figure in brackets
          would be 98 percent. In the event that a Super Majority Resolution is
          required to carry in excess of 75 percent of the votes cast, then 25
          percent would be the minimum percent needed to defeat the resolution,
          and the figure in brackets would be 32 percent.

          (C)  Except as set forth above, the Carnival Special Voting Share
       shall not be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to the
       shareholders of the Corporation.

      (3)  The rights and obligations attaching to the Carnival Special Voting
   Share may be amended or modified only by a resolution approved as a Class
   Rights Action; provided that where the proposed amendment or modification
   increases the obligations of the holder of the Carnival Special Voting
   Share, such amendment or modification shall also require the consent of the
   holder of the Carnival Special Voting Share.

      (4)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles of
   Incorporation, the By-Laws or any other agreement, under no circumstances
   shall the Carnival Special Voting Share be entitled to any rights upon
   Liquidation and distribution of assets of the Corporation or rights with
   respect to dividends or other Distributions by the Corporation to its
   shareholders.

   (d)  The Equalization Share.  The Equalization Share shall:

             (1)  have no rights to receive notice of, attend or vote at any
          meeting of the Corporation;

             (2)  have rights to dividends as declared and paid by the Board in
          accordance with Article XVI; and

             (3)  in the event of a voluntary or involuntary Liquidation, rank
          after all other holders of shares with respect to a Liquidation
          Distribution paid in accordance with Article XVII.

   (e)  Disenfranchised Carnival Common Stock.  All shares in the capital of
Carnival carrying liquidation rights and/or voting rights acquired by any
member of the P&O Princess Group shall automatically be converted on the first
day that such shares are beneficially owned by a member of the P&O Princess
Group into disenfranchised shares ("Disenfranchised Carnival Common Stock")
which will rank pari passu with all of the shares of the same class except that
such shares shall not have any rights:

      (1)  to attend or vote at any general meeting or class meeting of the
   Corporation, unless, as to any such shares, at the relevant date the P&O
   Princess Group, beneficially owns 90 per cent. or more of the outstanding
   shares of such class (whether or not for the purpose of such calculation any
   shares of such class are Disenfranchised Carnival Common Stock); or

      (2)  to receive any distributions upon Liquidation.

                                      6



       Following the Transfer of any Disenfranchised Carnival Common Stock from
       a member of the P&O Princess Group to a person who is not a member of
       the Combined Group, such Disenfranchised Carnival Common Stock shall
       automatically be converted on the day that such shares are registered in
       the register of members of the Corporation into shares of the same class
       having liquidation rights and/or voting rights.

                                  ARTICLE VI
                             No Preemptive Rights

   No holder of shares shall have any right, preemptive or other, to subscribe
for or to purchase from the Corporation any of the shares of the Corporation
hereinafter issued or sold.

   (c)  The Board of Directors are authorized to operate and carry into effect
the Equalization Agreement, the SVE Special Voting Deed and the Carnival Deed
of Guarantee. Subject to Applicable Regulations, nothing done by any director

the Carnival Common Stock and P&O Princess Ordinary Shares as if the

shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Corporation and all other
parties. No director shall be liable for any act or omission pursuant to these
Articles XII, XIII, XIV and XV if such action was taken in good faith. Any one
or more directors may act as the attorney(s) of any holder of Carnival Common

previously approved by the shareholders of the Corporation.

   (f)  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article X, upon completion of a
Mandatory Exchange, the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws shall be

                                  ARTICLE XI
                                Indemnification

   (a)  (1)  Each person (and the heirs, executors or administrators of such
person) who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such
person is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or P&O Princess or
is or was serving at the request of the Corporation or P&O Princess as a
director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding to the fullest extent and in the manner set forth in
and permitted by the Corporation Law, and any other applicable law, as from
time to time in effect. The foregoing provisions of this Article XI shall be
deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director and officer
who serves in such capacity at any time while this Article XI and the relevant
provisions of the Corporation Law and other applicable law, if any, are in
effect.

      (2)  The Corporation may, by action of the Board of Directors, provide
   indemnification to such of the employees and agents of the Corporation, P&O
   Princess or any person who is or was serving at the request of the
   Corporation or P&O Princess as an employee or agent of another

                                      9



   corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
   expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
   settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
   action, suit or proceeding to such extent and to such effect as the Board of
   Directors shall determine to be appropriate and permitted by the Corporation
   Law, and any other applicable law, as from time to time in effect.

   (b)  The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation or P&O Princess, or is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation or P&O Princess as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against any expense, liability or loss incurred by such person in any such
capacity or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation
would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the
provisions of this Article XI or under the Corporation Law or any other
provision of law.

   (c)  The rights and authority conferred in this Article XI shall not be
exclusive of any other right which any person may otherwise have or hereafter
acquire.

   (d)  Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article XI nor the adoption or
any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or the By-Laws of the
Corporation, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by the Corporation Law and
any other applicable law, any modification or repeal of law, shall affect any
rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts then or
theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or
thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in part upon any such state
of facts.

   (e)  The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted

   (f)  A member of the Board of Directors, or a member of any committee
designated by the Board of Directors, shall, in the performance of his duties,
be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Corporation
or P&O Princess and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements
presented to the Corporation by any of the Corporation's or P&O Princess'
officers or employees, or committees of the Board of Directors, or by any other
person as to matters the member reasonably believes are within such other
person's professional or expert competence and who has been selected with
reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation. In discharging their
duties, directors and officers, when acting in good faith, may rely upon
financial statements of the Corporation or P&O Princess represented to them to
be correct by the chief financial officer or the controller or other officer of
the Corporation or P&O Princess having charge of its books or accounts, or
stated in a written report by an independent public or certified public account
or firm of such accountants fairly to reflect the financial condition of the
Corporation or P&O Princess.

                                  ARTICLE XII
                           Restrictions on Transfer

   (a)  Restriction of Transfers and Other Events.  Except as provided in
section (g) hereof, from the Section 883 Amendment Date until the Restriction
Termination Date: (1) no Person (other than an Existing Holder) shall
Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit; (2) any Transfer
that, if effective, would result in any Person (other than an Existing Holder)
Beneficially Owning Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit shall be void ab
initio as to the Transfer of that number of Shares which would be otherwise
Beneficially Owned by such Person in excess of the Ownership Limit and the
intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares in excess of the
Ownership Limit; and (3) any Transfer of Shares that, if effective, would
result in the Corporation being "closely held" within the

                                      10



meaning of Section 883 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder
shall be void ab initio as to the Transfer of that number of Shares which would
cause the Corporation to be "closely held" within the meaning of Section 883 of
the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and the intended transferee
shall acquire no rights in such Shares.

   (b)  Excess Shares.

      (1)  If, notwithstanding the other provisions contained in these Articles
   of Incorporation, at any time from the Section 883 Amendment Date until the
   Restriction Termination Date, there is a purported Transfer or other event
   such that any Person (other than an Existing Holder) would Beneficially Own
   Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit, then, except as otherwise provided
   in section (g) hereof, such Shares which would be in excess of the Ownership
   Limit (rounded up to the nearest whole share), shall automatically be
   designated as Excess Shares (without reclassification), as further described
   in subsection (b)(2) hereof. The designation of such Shares as Excess Shares
   shall be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to
   the date of the Transfer or other event. If, after designation of such
   Shares owned directly by a Person as Excess Shares, such Person still owns
   Shares in excess of the applicable Ownership Limit, Shares Beneficially
   Owned by such Person constructively in excess of the Ownership Limit shall
   be designated as Excess Shares until such Person does not own Shares in
   excess of the applicable Ownership Limit. Where such Person owns Shares
   constructively through one or more Persons and the Shares held by such other
   Persons must be designated as Excess Shares, the designation of Shares held
   by such other Persons as Excess Shares shall be pro rata.

      (2)  If, notwithstanding the other provisions contained in these Articles
   of Incorporation, at any time from the Section 883 Amendment Date until the
   Restriction Termination Date, there is a purported Transfer which, if
   effective, would cause the Corporation to become "closely held" within the
   meaning of Section 883 of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder,
   then, except as otherwise provided in section (g) hereof, the Shares being
   Transferred and which would cause, when taken together with all other
   Shares, the Corporation to be "closely held" within the meaning of Section
   883 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (rounded up to
   the nearest whole share) shall automatically be designated as Excess Shares
   (without reclassification). The designation of such Shares as Excess Shares
   shall be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to
   the date of the Transfer. If, after designation of such Shares owned
   directly by a Person as Excess Shares, such Person still owns Shares in
   excess of the applicable Ownership Limit, Shares Beneficially Owned by such
   Person constructively in excess of the Ownership Limit shall be designated
   as Excess Shares until such Person does not own Shares in excess of the
   applicable Ownership Limit. Where such Person owns Shares constructively
   through one or more Persons and the Shares held by such other Persons must
   be designated as Excess Shares, the designation of Shares held by such other
   Persons as Excess Shares shall be pro rata.

   (c)  Remedies for Breach.  If the Board of Directors or their designees
shall at any time determine in good faith that a purported Transfer or other
event has taken place in violation of section (a) hereof or that a Person
intends to acquire or has attempted to acquire Beneficial Ownership of any
Shares in violation of section (a) hereof, the Board of Directors or their
designees may take such action as they deem advisable to refuse to give effect
to or to prevent such Transfer or other event, including, but not limited to,
refusing to give effect to such Transfer or other event on the books of the
Corporation or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer or other event
or transaction; provided, however, that any Transfers or attempted Transfers
(or, in the case of events other than a Transfer, Beneficial Ownership) in
violation of section (a) hereof shall be void ab initio and automatically
result in the designation and treatment described in section (b) hereof,
irrespective of any action (or non-action) by the Board of Directors or their
designees.

   (d)  Notice of Restricted Transfer.  Any Person who acquires or attempts to
acquire Shares in violation of section (a) hereof, or any Person who is a
purported transferee such that Excess Shares

                                      11



result under section (b) hereof, shall immediately give written notice to the
Corporation of such Transfer, attempted Transfer or other event and shall
provide to the Corporation such other information as the Corporation may
request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Transfer or attempted
Transfer or other event on the Corporation's status as qualifying for exemption
from taxation on gross income from the international operation of a ship or
ships within the meaning of Section 883 of the Code.

   (e)  Exclusion.  The restrictions set forth in section (a) shall not apply
to any Shares with respect to which such restrictions are prohibited pursuant
to applicable provisions of the corporation laws of the Republic of Panama.

   (f)  Remedies Not Limited.  Subject to section (j) hereof, nothing contained
in these Articles of Incorporation shall limit the authority of the Board of
Directors to take such other action as they deem necessary or advisable to
protect the interests of the Corporation's shareholders by preservation of the
Corporation's status as exempt from taxation on gross income from the
international operation of a ship or ships within the meaning of Section 883 of
the Code and to ensure compliance with the Ownership Limit.

   (g)  Exception.  The Board of Directors upon receipt of a ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of tax counsel, satisfactory to them in
their sole and absolute discretion, in each case to the effect that the
Corporation's status as exempt from taxation on gross income from the
international operation of a ship or ships within the meaning of Section 883 of
the Code will not be jeopardized or worsened, may exempt a Person (or may
generally exempt any class of Persons) or any class of Shares from the
Ownership Limit if the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, ascertains
that such Person's (or Persons') Beneficial Ownership of Shares or the
Beneficial Ownership of such class of Shares will not jeopardize or worsen the
Corporation's status as exempt from taxation on gross income from the
international operation of a ship or ships within the meaning of Section 883 of
the Code. The Board of Directors may require representations and undertakings
from such Person or Persons as are necessary to make such determination.

   (h)  Legend.  After the Section 883 Amendment Date, and prior to the
Restriction Termination Date, each certificate for the Shares shall bear the
following legend:

   The Shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on
   transfer. Unless excepted by the Board of Directors or exempted by the terms
   of the Articles of Incorporation of Carnival Corporation, no Person may (1)
   Beneficially Own Shares in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares, by
   value, vote or number, determined as provided in the Articles of
   Incorporation of Carnival Corporation, and computed with regard to all
   outstanding Shares and, to the extent provided by the Code, all Shares
   issuable under existing options and exchange rights that have not been
   exercised; or (2) Beneficially Own Shares which would result in the
   Corporation being "closely held." Unless so excepted, any acquisition of
   Shares and continued holding of ownership constitutes a continuous
   representation of compliance with the above limitations, and any Person who
   attempts to Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the above limitations has
   an affirmative obligation to notify the Corporation immediately upon such
   attempt. If the restrictions on transfer are violated, the transfer will be
   void ab initio and the Shares represented hereby will be designated and
   treated as Excess Shares that will be held in trust. Excess Shares may not
   be transferred at a profit and may be purchased by the Corporation. In
   addition, certain Beneficial Owners must give written notice as to certain
   information on demand and on exceeding certain ownership levels. All terms
   not defined in this legend have the meanings provided in the Articles of
   Incorporation of Carnival Corporation. The Corporation will mail without
   charge to any requesting shareholder a copy of the Articles of
   Incorporation, including the express terms of each class and series of the
   authorized Shares of the Corporation, within five (5) days after receipt by
   the Secretary of the Corporation of a written request therefor.

                                      12



   (i)  Severabilty.  If any provision of Article XII or XIII or any
application of any such provision is determined to be invalid by any Panamanian
court or United States federal or state court having jurisdiction over the
issues, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected, and
other applications of such provision shall be affected only to the extent
necessary to comply with the determination of such court.

   (j)  New York Stock Exchange Transactions.  Nothing in these Articles of
Incorporation shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into
through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange. The fact that the
settlement of any transaction occurs shall not negate the effect of any other
provision of these Articles of Incorporation and any transferee in such a
transaction shall be subject to all the provisions and limitations set forth in
these Articles of Incorporation.

   (k)  Owners Required to Provide Information.  After the Amendment Date and
prior to the Restriction Termination Date: (1) Every Beneficial Owner of three
percent (3%) or more, by vote, value or number, or such lower percentages as
required pursuant to regulations under the Code, of the outstanding Shares
shall promptly after becoming such a three percent (3%) Beneficial Owner, give
written notice to the Corporation stating the name and address of such
Beneficial Owner, the general ownership structure of such Beneficial Owner, the
number of shares of each class of Shares Beneficially Owned, and a description
of how such Shares are held. (2) Each Person who is a Beneficial Owner of
Shares and each Person (including the shareholder of record) who is holding
Shares for a Beneficial Owner shall provide on demand to the Corporation such
information as the Corporation may request from time to time in order to
determine the Corporation's status as exempt from taxation on gross income from
the international operation of a ship or ships within the meaning of Section
883 of the Code and to ensure compliance with the Ownership Limit.

                                 ARTICLE XIII
                                 Excess Shares

   (a)  Ownership in Trust.  Upon any purported Transfer or other event that
results in Excess Shares pursuant to section (b) of Article XII hereof, such
Excess Shares shall be deemed to have been transferred to the Excess Share
Trustee, as trustee of the Excess Share Trust, for the benefit of the
Charitable Beneficiary effective as of the close of business on the business
day prior to the date of the Transfer or other event. Excess Shares so held in
trust shall be issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation. The Purported
Record Transferee or Purported Record Holder shall have no rights in such
Excess Shares. The Purported Beneficial Transferee or Purported Beneficial
Holder shall have no rights in such Excess Shares except as provided in section
(c) or (e) of Article XIII. The Excess Share Trustee may resign at any time so
long as the Corporation shall have appointed a successor trustee. The Excess
Share Trustee shall, from time to time, designate one or more charitable
organization or organizations as the Charitable Beneficiary.

   (b)  Dividend Rights.  Excess Shares shall be entitled to the same dividends
determined as if the designation of Excess Shares had not occurred. Any
dividend or distribution paid prior to the discovery by the Corporation that
the Shares have been designated as Excess Shares shall be repaid to the Excess
Share Trust upon demand. Any dividend or distribution declared but unpaid shall
be paid to the Excess Share Trust. All dividends received or other income
earned by the Excess Share Trust shall be paid over to the Charitable
Beneficiary.

   (c)  Rights Upon Liquidation.  Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the Corporation, the Purported Beneficial Transferee or Purported Beneficial
Holder shall receive, for each Excess Share, the lesser of (1) the amount per
share of any distribution made upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or
(2) (x) in the case of Excess Shares resulting from a purported Transfer, the
price per share of the Shares in the transaction that created such Excess
Shares (or, in the case of the devise, gift or other similar event, the Market
Price of such Shares on the date of such devise, gift or other similar

                                      13



event) or (y) in the case of Excess Shares resulting from an event other than a
purported Transfer, the Market Price of the Shares on the date of such event.
Any amounts received in excess of such amount shall be paid to the Charitable
Beneficiary.

   (d)  Voting Rights.  The Excess Share Trustee shall be entitled to vote the
Excess Shares on behalf of the Charitable Beneficiary on any matter. Subject to
Panamanian law, any vote cast by a Purported Record Transferee with respect to
the Excess Shares prior to the discovery by the Corporation that the Excess
Shares were held in trust will be rescinded ab initio; provided, however, that
if the Corporation has already taken irreversible action with respect to a
merger, reorganization, sale of all or substantially all the assets,
dissolution of the Corporation or other action by the Corporation, then the
vote cast by the Purported Record Transferee shall not be rescinded. The
purported owner of the Excess Shares will be deemed to have given an
irrevocable proxy to the Excess Share Trustee to vote the Excess Shares for the
benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary.

   Notwithstanding the provisions of these Articles of Incorporation, until the
Corporation has received notification that Excess Shares have been transferred
into an Excess Share Trust, the Corporation shall be entitled to rely on its
share transfer and other shareholder records for purposes of preparing lists of
shareholders entitled to vote at meetings, determining the validity and
authority of proxies and otherwise conducting votes of shareholders.

   (e)  Restrictions on Transfer; Designation of Excess Share Trust
Beneficiary.  Excess Shares shall be transferable only as provided in this
section (e) of Article XIII. At the direction of the Board of Directors, the
Excess Share Trustee shall transfer the Excess Shares held in the Excess Share
Trust to a Person or Persons (including, without limitation, the Corporation
under section (f) below) whose ownership of such Shares shall not violate the
Ownership Limit or otherwise cause the Corporation to become "closely held"
within the meaning of Section 883 of the Code within 180 days after the later
of (i) the date of the Transfer or other event which resulted in Excess Shares
and (ii) the date the Board of Directors determines in good faith that a
Transfer or other event resulting in Excess Shares has occurred, if the
Corporation does not receive a notice of such Transfer or other event pursuant
to section (d) hereof. If such a transfer is made, the interest of the
Charitable Beneficiary shall terminate, the designation of such Shares as
Excess Shares shall thereupon cease and a payment shall be made to the
Purported Beneficial Transferee, Purported Beneficial Holder and/or the
Charitable Trustee as described below. If the Excess Shares resulted from a
purported Transfer, the Purported Beneficial Transferee shall receive a payment
from the Excess Share Trustee that reflects a price per share for such Excess
Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the price per share received by the Excess
Share Trustee and (B) (x) the price per share such Purported Beneficial
Transferee paid for the Shares in the purported Transfer that resulted in the
Excess Shares, or (y) if the Purported Beneficial Transferee did not give value
for such Excess Shares (through a gift, devise or other similar event) a price
per share equal to the Market Price of the Shares on the date of the purported
Transfer that resulted in the Excess Shares. If the Excess Shares resulted from
an event other than a purported Transfer, the Purported Beneficial Holder shall
receive a payment from the Excess Share Trustee that reflects a price per share
of Excess Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the price per share received by the
Excess Share Trustee and (B) the Market Price of the Shares on the date of the
event that resulted in Excess Shares. Prior to any transfer of any interest in
the Excess Share Trust, the Corporation must have waived in writing its
purchase rights, if any, under section (f) below. Any funds received by the
Excess Share Trustee in excess of the funds payable to the Purported Beneficial
Holder or the Purported Beneficial Transferee shall be paid to the Charitable
Beneficiary. The Corporation shall pay the costs and expenses of the Excess
Share Trustee.

   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the provisions of this section (e) are
determined to be void or invalid by virtue of any legal decision, statute, rule
or regulation, then the Purported Beneficial Transferee or Purported Beneficial
Holder of any shares of Excess Shares may be deemed, at the option of the
Corporation, to have acted as an agent on behalf of the Corporation in
acquiring or holding such Excess Shares and to hold such Excess Shares on
behalf of the Corporation.

                                      14



   (f)  Purchase Right in Excess Shares.  Excess Shares shall be deemed to have
been offered for sale by the Excess Share Trustee to the Corporation, or its
designee, at a price per Excess Share equal to (i) in the case of Excess Shares
resulting from a purported Transfer, the lesser of (A) the price per share of
the Shares in the transaction that created such Excess Shares (or, in the case
of devise, gift or other similar event, the Market Price of the Shares on the
date of such devise, gift or other similar event), or (B) the lowest Market
Price of the class of Shares which resulted in the Excess Shares at any time
after the date such Shares were designated as Excess Shares and prior to the
date the Corporation, or its designee, accepts such offer or (ii) in the case
of Excess Shares resulting from an event other than a purported Transfer, the
lesser of (A) the Market Price of the Shares on the date of such event or (B)
the lowest Market Price for Shares which resulted in the Excess Shares at any
time from the date of the event resulting in such Excess Shares and prior to
the date the Corporation, or its designee, accepts such offer. The Corporation
shall have the right to accept such offer for a period of ninety (90) days
after the later of (i) the date of the Transfer or other event which resulted
in such Excess Shares and (ii) the date the Board of Directors determines in
good faith that a Transfer or other event resulting in Excess Shares has
occurred, if the Corporation does not receive a notice of such Transfer or
other event pursuant to section (d) hereof.

   (g)  Underwritten Offerings.  The Ownership Limit shall not apply to the
acquisition of Shares or rights, options or warrants for, or securities
convertible into, Shares by an underwriter in a public offering or placement
agent in a private offering, provided that the underwriter makes a timely
distribution of such Shares or rights, options or warrants for, or securities
convertible into, Shares.

                                  ARTICLE XIV
                     Combined Group Ownership Restrictions

   (a)  Triggering Acquisition.  From the Amendment Date: Subject to section
(b) below, if any person (an "Acquiring Person") acquires additional Ordinary
Shares or voting control over additional Ordinary Shares and, after giving
effect to such acquisition (or, if the Corporation is subject to the City Code,
acquires Ordinary Shares or voting control over Ordinary Shares) such Acquiring
Person, whether solely or together with any person or persons Acting in Concert
with such Acquiring Person, holds or exercises voting control over Ordinary
Shares which equal or are in excess of the Combined Group City Code Limit (such
acquisition of Ordinary Shares or voting control over Ordinary Shares, a
"Triggering Acquisition"), then all (x) Ordinary Shares held by the Acquiring
Person or over which the Acquiring Person exercises voting control, and (y)
Ordinary Shares held by any party or parties Acting in Concert with such
Acquiring Person or over which any party or parties Acting in Concert with such
Acquiring Person exercise(s) voting control (the "Acquiring Person Attributable
Shares") shall automatically be designated as "Combined Group Restricted
Shares" for the purposes of Articles XIV and XV. A Triggering Acquisition can
occur more than once, and the provisions set forth in Articles XIV and XV shall
apply to every separate Triggering Acquisition or series of Triggering
Acquisitions.

   (b)  Qualifying Takeover Offer.  Notwithstanding the provisions of section
(a) above, if:

      (1)  prior to or simultaneously with a Triggering Acquisition, such
   Acquiring Person has made a Qualifying Takeover Offer (and, in the event
   that the Qualifying Takeover Offer was made prior to the Triggering
   Acquisition, such Qualifying Takeover Offer has not been withdrawn,
   abandoned or terminated prior to or simultaneously with the Triggering
   Acquisition), or

      (2)  the circumstances described in clause (1) have not occurred, and
   such Acquiring Person (x) within 10 days after the date on which the
   applicable Triggering Acquisition occurs, makes a binding public
   announcement to commence a Qualifying Takeover Offer, and (y) within 28 days
   after making the public announcement referred to in the preceding clause
   (x), commences a Qualifying Takeover Offer,

                                      15



   then the Acquiring Person Attributable Shares shall not be designated
   Combined Group Restricted Shares for the purposes of Articles XIV and XV
   hereof until the earliest to occur (if at all) of (i) a withdrawal,
   abandonment or termination of such Qualifying Takeover Offer other than in
   accordance with its terms, or (ii) any amendment, modification or supplement
   to the terms of either offer comprising the Qualifying Takeover Offer such
   that, as amended, modified or supplemented, the offers would not constitute
   a Qualifying Takeover Offer; provided, that immediately upon the earliest to
   occur of the events described in clause (i) or (ii), such Acquiring Person
   Attributable Shares shall be automatically designated as Combined Group
   Restricted Shares.

   (c)  Determination of Combined Group Excess Shares.  In the event that any
Ordinary Shares are designated Combined Group Restricted Shares pursuant to
section (a) or (b):

      (1)  If the Combined Group Restricted Shares (A) consist entirely of
   Carnival Common Stock, and (B) are held by or subject to the voting control
   of a single person, then all Carnival Common Stock held by such person or
   over which such person exercises voting control which cause the Combined
   Group City Code Limit to be equaled or exceeded, shall automatically be
   designated as Combined Group Excess Shares for the purposes of Article XV.

      (2)  If the Combined Group Restricted Shares (A) consist of both Carnival
   Common Stock and P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, and (B) are held by or
   subject to the voting control of a single person, then:

          (A)  if, after giving effect to the Equalization Ratio, (x) the
       number of votes represented by such Carnival Common Stock that could be
       cast with respect to a Joint Electorate Action exceeds (y) the number of
       votes represented by such P&O Princess Ordinary Shares that could be
       cast with respect to a Joint Electorate Action, then all Carnival Common
       Stock held by such person or over which such person exercises voting
       control which cause the Combined Group City Code Limit to be equaled or
       exceeded shall automatically be designated as Combined Group Excess
       Shares for the purposes of Article XV; and

          (B)  if, after giving effect to the Equalization Ratio, (x) the
       number of votes represented by such Carnival Common Stock that could be
       cast with respect to a Joint Electorate Action is less than or equal to
       (y) the number of votes represented by such P&O Princess Ordinary Shares
       that could be cast with respect to a Joint Electorate Action, such
       Carnival Common Stock shall be automatically be designated as Combined
       Group Excess Shares for the purposes of Article XV only to the extent
       that such Carnival Common Stock would give such person ownership or
       voting control equal to or in excess of the Combined Group City Code
       Limit, as if determined without regard to any P&O Princess Ordinary
       Shares held or subject to the voting control of such person.

      (3)  If the Combined Group Restricted Shares are held by or subject to
   the voting control of two or more persons Acting in Concert, where:

          (A)  all or a part of such Combined Group Restricted Shares would all
       have been designated as Combined Group Excess Shares pursuant to
       subsection (c)(1) hereof had they been held by or subject to the voting
       control of a single person; or

          (B)  all or a part of such Combined Group Restricted Shares would
       have been designated as Combined Group Excess Shares pursuant to
       subsection (c)(2) hereof had they been held by or subject to the voting
       control of a single person,

   then such automatic designation as Combined Group Excess Shares for the
   purposes of Article XV shall be made with respect to the same number of
   Carnival Common Stock held by or subject to the voting control of such
   persons Acting in Concert as if they had been held by or subject to the
   voting control of a single person, such designation to be made on a pro rata
   basis based on the number of Carnival Common Stock each such person holds or
   over which each such person exercises voting control.

                                      16



   (d)  Notice.

      (1)  Any person whose acquisition of Ordinary Shares or voting control
   over Ordinary Shares would or does result in any Ordinary Shares being
   constituted as Combined Group Restricted Shares pursuant to section (a) or
   (b) hereof shall immediately give written notice to the Corporation of such
   event and shall provide to the Corporation such other information as the
   Corporation may request in order to determine (i) whether any acquisition of
   Ordinary Shares or voting control over Ordinary Shares has resulted or could
   result in any Ordinary Shares being designated as Combined Group Restricted
   Shares under this Article XIV, and/or (ii) to what extent any Combined Group
   Restricted Shares should be designated as Combined Group Excess Shares
   pursuant to section (c) hereof.

      (2)  The Corporation will, as soon as practicable after the Board of
   Directors has knowledge thereof, notify in writing any Person who holds any
   Combined Group Restricted Shares; provided that failure by the Corporation
   to give any such notification shall in no way invalidate any of the
   provisions of Article XIV and XV. Upon receipt of such notice from the
   Corporation, such Person shall immediately provide to the Corporation such
   information described in subsection (d)(1) hereof as the Corporation shall
   request.

   (e)  Exclusion.  The restrictions set forth in Article XIV shall not apply
to:

      (1)  any Carnival Common Stock to the extent that such restrictions are
   prohibited pursuant to Applicable Regulations.

      (2)  any acquisition of Ordinary Shares or voting control over Ordinary
   Shares by any member of the Arison Group if, as a result, the aggregate of
   the voting rights of the P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and of the Carnival
   Common Stock held by the Arison Group and of the P&O Princess Ordinary
   Shares and of the Carnival Common Stock over which the Arison Group, after
   giving effect to the Equalization Ratio, exercises voting control does not
   thereby (i) increase by one per cent. or more in any period of twelve
   consecutive months and (ii) after giving effect to the Equalization Ratio,
   equal or exceed forty per cent. of the aggregate voting rights attached to
   the whole of the issued P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and the outstanding
   Carnival Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) a shareholder shall
   not be deemed to have acquired Ordinary Shares or voting control over
   Ordinary Shares if solely as a result of a share buyback, cancellation or
   reduction of share capital, disenfranchisement of voting rights or any other
   procedure which has the effect of reducing the share capital or the voting
   share capital of the Corporation or of P&O Princess the percentage holding
   of such person is increased; and (y) the transfer of Ordinary Shares or
   voting control over Ordinary Shares among members of the Arison Group shall
   not be deemed to be a Triggering Acquisition.

      (3)  any acquisition pursuant to a Mandatory Exchange.

      (4)  any acquisition by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries from
   time to time of any Ordinary Shares.

      (5)  any acquisition by any member of the P&O Princess Group of any
   Ordinary Shares.

   (f)  Legend.  After the Amendment Date, each certificate for Carnival Common
Stock shall bear the following legend:

   The shares represented by this certificate are subject to certain
   restrictions on ownership of shares of Carnival Corporation and P&O Princess
   Cruises plc. Under the terms of the Articles of Incorporation of the
   Corporation, if any person acquires Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O
   Princess Ordinary Shares or voting control over such shares, and after
   giving effect to such acquisition, such person, together with any person or
   persons Acting in Concert with such acquiring person, holds or exercises
   voting control over Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O

                                      17



   Princess Ordinary Shares which is equal to or in excess of such number of
   shares which, in aggregate, represent the right to cast 30% or more of the
   votes on a Joint Electorate Action, such shares which cause that ownership
   limit to be equaled or exceeded may be designated as Combined Group Excess
   Shares. In addition, any additional acquisition of Carnival Common Stock
   and/or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares by a person that, together with any
   person or persons Acting in Concert, holds or has voting control over
   Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares representing the
   right to cast not less than 30% and not more than 50% of the votes on a
   Joint Electorate Action, may result in certain shares being designated as
   Combined Group Excess Shares. Any Carnival Common Stock that are designated
   as Combined Group Excess Shares will be transferred to a trustee, and the
   prior holder thereof will have no right to vote such shares or receive
   dividends or other distributions with respect thereto. A person may exceed
   the ownership limits described above if such person makes a Qualifying
   Takeover Offer with respect to all Carnival Common Stock and P&O Princess
   Ordinary Shares. Holders may be required to provide written notice and other
   information to the Corporation if such ownership levels are equaled or
   exceeded. The foregoing is only a summary of the applicable restrictions and
   is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles of Incorporation
   of the Corporation. The Corporation will mail without charge to any
   requesting shareholder of the Corporation a copy of the Articles of
   Incorporation, within five (5) days after receipt by the Secretary of the
   Corporation of a written request therefor. All terms not defined in this
   legend have the meanings provided in the Articles of Incorporation of
   Carnival Corporation.

   (g)  Severability.  If any provision of Articles XIV or XV or any
application of any such provision is determined to be invalid by any Panamanian
court or United States federal or state court having jurisdiction over the
issues, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected, and
other applications of such provision shall be affected only to the extent
necessary to comply with the determination of such court.

   (h)  New York Stock Exchange Transactions.  Nothing in these Articles of
Incorporation shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into
through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange. The fact that the
settlement of any transaction occurs shall not negate the effect of any other
provision of these Articles of Incorporation and any transferee in such a
transaction shall be subject to all the provisions and limitations set forth in
these Articles of Incorporation.

                                  ARTICLE XV
                         Combined Group Excess Shares

   (a)  Ownership in Trust.  Upon the designation of any Carnival Common Stock
as Combined Group Excess Shares pursuant to section (c) of Article XIV hereof,
such Combined Group Excess Shares shall be transferred by or on behalf of the
Combined Group Excess Share Holder to the Excess Share Trustee, as trustee of
the Excess Share Trust, for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. Until
such transfer to the Excess Share Trustee, the Combined Group Excess Shares
shall be held by the Combined Group Excess Share Holder in trust for the
benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of these
Articles of Incorporation. From the date that such shares of Carnival Common
Stock are designated as Combined Group Excess Shares, the Combined Group Excess
Share Holder shall have no rights in such Combined Group Excess Shares, except
as provided in section (c), (e) or (f) below. The Excess Share Trustee may
resign at any time so long as the Corporation shall have appointed a successor
trustee. The Excess Share Trustee shall, from time to time, designate one or
more charitable organization or organizations as the Charitable Beneficiary.
More than one Excess Share Trustee may be appointed to hold the Combined Group
Excess Shares in trust for one or more Charitable Beneficiaries.


                                      18



   (b)  Dividend Rights.  Combined Group Excess Shares shall be entitled to the
same dividends and other distributions determined as if the designation of
Combined Group Excess Shares had not occurred. Any dividend or distribution
made or paid on or after the date such shares of Carnival Common Stock are
designated as Combined Group Restricted Shares and prior to the designation of
such shares of Carnival Common Stock as Combined Group Excess Shares shall be
repaid to the Excess Share Trust upon demand. Any dividend or distribution
declared but unpaid or not made shall be paid to the Excess Share Trust. All
dividends received or other income earned by the Excess Share Trust shall be
paid over to the Charitable Beneficiary.

   (c)  Rights Upon Liquidation.  Notwithstanding the fact that Combined Group
Excess Shares are held in trust for a Charitable Beneficiary, upon Liquidation
of the Corporation, the Combined Group Excess Share Holder shall receive (if it
has not already received consideration for such shares pursuant to section (e)
or (f) below), for each Combined Group Excess Share, the amount per share of
any distribution made upon Liquidation with respect to Carnival Common Stock
generally, less any costs and expenses incurred by the Corporation, the Excess
Share Trustee and the Charitable Beneficiary in connection with the transfer of
the Combined Group Excess Shares to the Excess Share Trustee and the holding of
such shares by the Excess Share Trustee.

   (d)  Voting Rights.

      (1)  The Excess Share Trustee shall be entitled, but shall not be
   required, to vote the Combined Group Excess Shares on behalf of the
   Charitable Beneficiary on any matter. Subject to Panamanian law, any vote
   cast by a Combined Group Excess Share Holder with respect to the Combined
   Group Excess Shares prior to the designation of such shares as Combined
   Group Restricted Shares will be rescinded ab initio; provided, however, that
   if the Corporation has already taken irreversible action with respect to a
   merger, reorganization, sale of all or substantially all the assets,
   dissolution of the Corporation or other action by the Corporation, then the
   vote cast by the Combined Group Excess Share Holder shall not be rescinded.
   The purported owner of the Combined Group Excess Shares will be deemed to
   have given an irrevocable proxy to the Excess Share Trustee to vote the
   Combined Group Excess Shares for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary.

      (2)  Notwithstanding the provisions of these Articles of Incorporation,
   until the Corporation has received notification that Combined Group Excess
   Shares have been transferred into an Excess Share Trust, the Corporation
   shall be entitled to rely on its share transfer and other shareholder
   records for purposes of preparing lists of shareholders entitled to vote at
   meetings, determining the validity and authority of proxies and otherwise
   conducting votes of shareholders.

   (e)  Transfer of Combined Group Excess Shares.

      (1)  Combined Group Excess Shares shall be transferable only as provided
   in this section (e). At the direction of the Board of Directors, the Excess
   Share Trustee shall transfer the Combined Group Excess Shares held in the
   Excess Share Trust to a person or persons (including, without limitation,
   the Corporation under section (f) below) whose ownership of such Carnival
   Common Stock would not result in a designation of any Carnival Common Stock
   as Combined Group Restricted Shares pursuant to section (a) or (b) of
   Article XIV, within 180 days after the later of (i) the date of the event
   that resulted in such shares being designated as Combined Group Restricted
   Shares pursuant to section (a) or (b) of Article XIV, and (ii) the date that
   the Board of Directors determines or is notified that an event resulting in
   Combined Group Restricted Shares has occurred. If such a transfer is made,
   the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary shall terminate, the designation
   of such Carnival Common Stock as Combined Group Excess Shares shall
   thereupon cease and a payment shall be made to the Combined Group Excess
   Share Holder as described below. The Combined Group Excess Share Holder
   shall receive a payment from the

                                      19



   Excess Share Trustee that reflects a price per share of Combined Group
   Excess Shares equal to the price per share received by the Excess Share
   Trustee upon such transfer, less any costs and expenses incurred by the
   Corporation, the Excess Share Trustee upon such transfer and the Charitable
   Beneficiary in connection with the transfer of the Combined Group Excess
   Shares to the Excess Share Trustee, the holding of such shares by the Excess
   Share Trustee and the transfer of such shares in accordance with this
   section (e).

      (2)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the provisions of this section (e)
   are determined to be void or invalid by virtue of any applicable law, then
   the Combined Group Excess Share Holder may be deemed, at the option of the
   Corporation, to have acted as an agent on behalf of the Corporation in
   acquiring or holding such Combined Group Excess Shares and to hold such
   Combined Group Excess Shares on behalf of the Corporation.

   (f)  Purchase Right in Combined Group Excess Shares.  Combined Group Excess
Shares shall be deemed to have been offered for sale by the Excess Share
Trustee to the Corporation, or its designee, at a price per Combined Group
Excess Share equal to the Market Price of the Carnival Common Stock on the date
that the Corporation acquires the Combined Group Excess Shares, less any costs
and expenses incurred by the Corporation, the Excess Share Trustee and the
Charitable Beneficiary in connection with the transfer of the Combined Group
Excess Shares to the Excess Share Trustee, the holding of such shares by the
Excess Share Trustee and the transfer of such shares in accordance with this
section (f). The Corporation shall have the right to accept such offer for a
period of ninety (90) days after the later of (i) the date of the event that
resulted in such shares being designated as Combined Group Restricted Shares
pursuant to section (a) or (b) of Article XIV, and (ii) the date the Board of
Directors determines in good faith that an event resulting in Combined Group
Restricted Shares has occurred, if the Corporation does not receive a notice of
such Transfer or other event pursuant to section (d) of Article XIV.

   (g)  Underwritten Offerings.  The provisions of Articles XIV and XV shall
not apply to the acquisition of Carnival Common Stock or rights, options or
warrants for, or securities convertible into, Carnival Common Stock by an
underwriter in a public offering or placement agent in a private offering;
provided, that the underwriter or placement agent makes a timely distribution
of such Carnival Common Stock or rights, options or warrants for, or securities
convertible into, Carnival Common Stock such that, after the distribution, such
underwriter or placement agent does not hold or exercise voting control over
Ordinary Shares equal to or in excess of the Combined Group City Code Limit.

   (h)  Applicability of Ownership Limit and Combined Group City Code
Limit.  Notwithstanding anything in these Articles to the contrary, in the
event of any occurrence that results in Carnival Common Stock being designated
as both Excess Shares pursuant to Article XII and Combined Group Restricted
Shares pursuant to Article XIV, such Shares shall be designated as Excess
Shares and not Combined Group Excess Shares.

   (i)  Voting Control.  For purposes of Articles XIV and XV: (i) references to
holding or acquiring shares will also be deemed to include holding or acquiring
voting control over shares; (ii) a person will be deemed to have voting control
over shares if such person has the power to direct the voting of such shares;
(iii) a person will be deemed to acquire shares upon the occurrence of any
event which results in such person Acting in Concert with another person with
respect to such other person's shares; and (iv) for the avoidance of doubt, for
purposes of calculating the voting power held by a person, any voting power
represented by the P&O Princess Special Voting Share or the Carnival Special
Voting Share shall be ignored.

                                  ARTICLE XVI
                          Dividends and Distributions

   (a)  Subject to the Equalization Agreement and the provisions of these
Articles of Incorporation, the Corporation shall not pay or make any
Distribution in cash unless P&O Princess also pays or makes a Distribution in
cash at approximately the same time and the ratio of the Equalized Distribution
Amount so paid or made by the Corporation to the Equalized Distribution Amount
so paid or made by P&O Princess (converted, if applicable, at the Applicable
Exchange Rate for such Distributions and rounded to five decimal places) equals
the Equalization Ratio in effect on the Distribution Determination Date for
such Distributions (each, an "Equivalent Distribution").

   (b)  The Corporation shall not declare or otherwise become obligated to pay
or make a Distribution in cash unless (i) on the date on which such declaration
is made or such obligation is created, P&O Princess has sufficient
Distributable Reserves to make an Equivalent Distribution with respect to such
Distribution or (ii) the Corporation agrees to pay, and does pay, to P&O
Princess (before P&O Princess pays or makes such Distribution) the minimum
amount required by P&O Princess so that it will have sufficient Distributable
Reserves to pay or make such an Equivalent Distribution. Notwithstanding
compliance with the preceding sentence, if P&O Princess shall have declared or
otherwise become obligated to pay or make an Equivalent Distribution and does
not have sufficient Distributable Reserves to pay or make such Equivalent
Distribution when due, then the Corporation shall pay to P&O Princess the
minimum amount required by P&O Princess so that P&O Princess will have
sufficient Distributable Reserves to pay or make such Equivalent Distribution;
provided, however, that if the Corporation does not have sufficient
Distributable Reserves to pay or make in full both the Equivalent Distribution
that it declared or became obligated to make and the payment required by this
sentence, then (i) the Corporation shall only pay or make the portion of that
Equivalent Distribution (and any related payment that would have been required
by this sentence in respect of such portion if it were the entire Equivalent
Distribution that the Corporation had declared or became obligated to make)
that it can make out of its Distributable Reserves, and (ii) P&O Princess shall
only pay or make the portion of its Equivalent Distribution that it can make
out of its Distributable Reserves following receipt of such payment.

   (c)  For purposes of section (b) above, any amount the Corporation is
required to pay to P&O Princess shall be determined after taking into account
all Taxes payable by, and all Tax credits of, the Corporation and P&O Princess
with respect to the payment or receipt of such payment and any such payment may
be made on the Equalization Share, if any, issued by the Corporation if both
the Board of Directors and the P&O Princess Board deem it appropriate.

   (d)  The Board of Directors shall:

      (1)  insofar as is practicable in relation to any proposed cash
   Distribution, cooperate with the P&O Princess Board to agree the amount of
   the Equivalent Distribution to be paid by the Corporation and P&O Princess;

      (2)  determine to pay or recommend to pay Equivalent Distributions at
   Board of Directors meetings convened as close in time to those similarly
   convened by the P&O Princess Board as is practicable;

      (3)  cooperate with the P&O Princess Board to announce and pay Equivalent
   Distributions simultaneously or as close in time as practicable;

      (4)  ensure that the record dates for receipt of the Equivalent
   Distribution, in respect of the Corporation and P&O Princess, are on the
   same date; and

      (5)  generally coordinate with the P&O Princess Board the timing of all
   other aspects of the payment or making of Equivalent Distributions.

                                      21



                                 ARTICLE XVII
                                  Liquidation

   (a)  In the event of a voluntary or involuntary Liquidation of the
Corporation, the Corporation will, subject to subsection (b) below, make such
payments or take such other actions required to ensure that the holders of
Carnival Common Stock and P&O Princess Ordinary Shares would, had each of the
Corporation and P&O Princess gone into Liquidation on the same date, be
entitled to receive a Liquidation Distribution which is equivalent on a per
share basis in accordance with the Equalization Ratio then in effect and having
regard to the Liquidation Exchange Rate, but disregarding any shareholder Tax
or Tax Benefit.

   (b)  To establish the amount payable under section (a) above, each of the
Corporation and P&O Princess will determine the amount of assets (if any) it
will have available for distribution in a Liquidation on the date of the
Liquidation (or notional date of Liquidation) to holders of Carnival Common
Stock or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, after payment of all
debts and other financial obligations, including any Tax costs associated with
the realization of any assets on a Liquidation and any payments due with
respect to any securities ranking in preference to the Carnival Common Stock or
the P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, as the case may be (each such amount, the
"Net Assets"). To the extent that the Net Assets of the Corporation or P&O
Princess would enable such company to make a Liquidation Distribution to the
holders of Carnival Common Stock or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, as the case
may be, that is greater than the Liquidation Distribution that the other
company could pay from its Net Assets to the holders of its Ordinary Shares,
adjusting such comparative Liquidation Distribution in accordance with the
Equalization Ratio then in effect and having regard to the Liquidation Exchange
Rate, but disregarding any shareholder Tax (including any withholding Tax
required to be deducted by the company concerned) or Tax Benefit, then, subject
to subsection (c) below, such company will make a balancing payment (or take
any other action described in subsection (d) below) in such amount as will
ensure that both companies can make equivalent Liquidation Distributions to the
holders of their Ordinary Shares in accordance with the then existing
Equalization Ratio and having regard to the Liquidation Exchange Rate, but
ignoring any shareholder Tax (including any withholding Tax required to be
deducted by the company concerned) or Tax Benefit; provided that neither the
Corporation nor P&O Princess need make a balancing payment (or take any other
action) as described in this subsection (b) if it would result in neither the
holders of Carnival Common Stock nor the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary
Shares being entitled to receive any Liquidation Distribution at all.

   (c)  For purposes of subsection (b) above, any amount a company is required
to pay the other company shall be determined after taking into account all
Taxes payable by, and all Tax credits, losses or deductions of, the Corporation
and P&O Princess with respect to the payment or receipt of such payment and any
such payment may be made on the Equalization Share, if any, issued by the
paying party if both the Board of Directors and the P&O Princess Board deem it
appropriate.

   (d)  In giving effect to the principles regarding a Liquidation of the
Corporation and/or P&O Princess described above, the Corporation shall take
such action as may be required to give effect to such principles, which may
include:

      (i)  making a payment (of cash or in specie) to P&O Princess in
   accordance with the provisions of the Equalization Agreement;

      (ii)  issuing shares (which may include the Equalization Share) to P&O
   Princess or to holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and making a
   distribution or return on such shares; or

      (iii)  taking any other action that the Board of Directors and the P&O
   Princess Board shall both consider appropriate to give effect to such
   principles

provided that any action other than a payment of cash by one company to the
other company shall require the prior approval of both the Board of Directors
and the P&O Princess Board.

                                      22



                                 ARTICLE XVIII
                                    Pairing

   (a)  For so long as the P&O Princess SVT Shares and the Carnival Common
Stock remain outstanding:

      (i) each P&O Princess SVT Share shall, immediately following the transfer
   from Carnival to the holders of shares of Carnival Common Stock by dividend
   or otherwise, be paired with one share of Carnival Common Stock;

      (ii) the P&O Princess SVT Shares and the shares of Carnival Common Stock
   shall not be represented by separate instruments but shall be represented by
   certificates representing the shares of Carnival Common Stock, which shall
   also represent the P&O Princess SVT Shares; and

      (iii)  each share of Carnival Common Stock shall not be transferred
   without the corresponding P&O Princess SVT Share; and

      (iv) the transfer agent for the Carnival Common Stock and Carnival shall
   not transfer, agree to transfer or recognize the transfer of shares of
   Carnival Common Stock in registered form unless such transfer occurs
   together with a transfer of an equivalent number of P&O Princess SVT Shares
   and such transfer agent has received from the transferor, either endorsed on
   the certificate representing the shares of Carnival Common Stock or
   otherwise, a duly completed and signed stock transfer form or stock power in
   writing which shall include an agreement by such transferor that such stock
   transfer form or stock power shall transfer the paired P&O Princess SVT
   Shares as well as the shares of Carnival Common Stock and which is signed by
   the transferor.

   (b)  Each certificate representing shares of Carnival Common Stock issued
after the Amendment Date shall:

      (i)  subject to the other provisions of this Article XVIII, take the form
   of the certificate representing shares of Carnival Common Stock as of
   immediately prior to the Amendment Date;

      (ii)  bear the following legend: "THIS CERTIFICATE ALSO REPRESENTS A

      (iii)  be in a form that is in compliance with all Applicable Regulations.

   (c)  After the Amendment Date, upon each issuance of additional shares of
Carnival Common Stock by the Corporation, once the P&O Princess Trustee
authorizes and issues a number of additional P&O Princess SVT Shares to the
Corporation equal to the number of shares of Carnival Common Stock to be issued
by the Corporation, the Corporation shall transfer the P&O Princess SVT Shares
to holders of such shares of Carnival Common Stock, which P&O Princess SVT
Shares shall, once distributed by the Corporation, be represented by the
certificates representing the shares of Carnival Common Stock.

   (d)  Upon the conversion or exercise of any securities convertible into
shares of Carnival Common Stock or any rights, options or warrants to purchase
shares of Carnival Common Stock (collectively, "Derivative Securities"), which
were issued by the Corporation prior to the Amendment Date and which have not
been previously converted or exercised, once the P&O Princess Trustee has
authorized and issued to the Corporation a number of the P&O Princess SVT
Shares equal to the number of shares of Carnival Common Stock the exercising or
converting holder of such Derivative Securities is entitled to receive upon
such exercise or conversion, the Corporation shall immediately transfer the P&O
Princess SVT shares to holders of Carnival Common Stock arising from the
conversion or exercise of the Derivative Securities, which P&O Princess SVT
shares shall be paired with the shares of Carnival Common Stock in accordance
with the Pairing Agreement. The Corporation shall thereupon issue to the
exercising or converting holder of such Derivative Securities a certificate or
certificates representing the number of shares of Carnival Common Stock that
such holder is entitled to receive upon such exercise or conversion, which
certificate or certificates shall also represent an equivalent number of P&O
Princess SVT Shares in accordance with the terms of the Pairing Agreement and
of the P&O Princess SVT Agreement.

   (e)  After the Amendment Date after the P&O Princess Trustee has taken such
action (including, without limitation, the authorization and issuance of
additional P&O Princess SVT Shares to the Corporation) as is required to be
taken by it to authorize the issuance of P&O Princess SVT Shares as
contemplated by this Article XVIII(d), once the P&O Princess Trustee has issued
to the Corporation such P&O Princess SVT shares upon the conversion or exercise
of such Derivative Securities (in accordance with Section 5 of the Pairing
Agreement), the Corporation shall thereupon (i) immediately transfer the P&O
Princess SVT shares to the holders of Carnival Common Stock arising from the
conversion or exercise of the Derivative Securities (at a rate of one P&O
Princess SVT share for each share of Carnival Common Stock held on the relevant
record date), and (ii) issue to the exercising or converting holder of such
Derivative Securities a certificate or certificates representing the number of
shares of Carnival Common Stock that such holder is entitled to receive upon
such conversion or exercise, which certificate or certificates shall also
represent an equivalent number of P&O Princess SVT Shares in accordance with
the terms of the Pairing Agreement and the P&O Princess SVT Agreement.

                                      OF

                             CARNIVAL CORPORATION

                                   ARTICLE I
                                    Offices

   Section 1.1  Offices.  The Corporation may have and maintain an office or
offices at such places within or without the Republic of Panama as the Board of
Directors may from time to time determine or the business of the Corporation
requires.

                                  ARTICLE II
                           Meetings of Shareholders

   Section 2.1  Place of Meeting.  Every meeting of the Shareholders the
Corporation shall be held at the office of the Corporation or at such place or
places within or outside the Republic of Panama as shall be specified or fixed
in the notice of such meeting or in the waiver of notice thereof.

   Section 2.2  Annual Meeting.  The Annual Meeting of the Shareholders shall
be held annually at such hour and on such business day as may be determined by
the Board of Directors and designated in the notice of meeting. At such Annual
Meeting, the Shareholders then entitled to vote shall elect directors and shall
transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.

   Section 2.3  Deferred Meeting for Election of Directors, Etc.  If the Annual
Meeting for the election of directors and the transaction of other business is
not held within the months specified in Section 2.2, the Board shall call a
meeting of Shareholders for the election of directors and the transaction of
other business as soon thereafter as convenient.

   Section 2.4  Special Meetings.  A Special Meeting of Shareholders (other
than a special meeting for the election of directors), unless otherwise
prescribed by statute, may be called at any time by the Board or by the
President or by the Secretary. At any Special Meeting of Shareholders only such
business may be transacted as is related to the purpose or purposes of such
meeting set forth in the notice thereof or in any waiver of notice thereof.

   Section 2.5  Notice of Meetings.  Except as provided in Section 6.2, written
notice of all meetings of Shareholders stating the purpose or purposes for
which the meeting is called, including whether the resolution relates to a
Joint Electorate Action or a Class Rights Action, the name of the person or
persons at whose direction the notice is being given, and the date, time and
place where it is to be held, shall be given, personally or by mail, at least
ten (10) but not more than sixty (60) days before such meeting, to each
Shareholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting and to each member of
the Board of Directors. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when
deposited in the United States mail, with postage prepaid directed to the
Shareholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. An
affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or of the transfer agent
of the Corporation that the notice required by this Section 2.5 has been given
shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated
therein. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not
be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof



are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, and at the
adjourned meeting any business may be transacted that might have been
transacted at the meeting as originally called. If, however, the adjournment is
for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is
fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be
given to each Shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

   Section 2.6  Notice with Respect to Joint Electorate Action or Class Rights
Action.  If the Corporation proposes to undertake a Joint Electorate Action or
Class Rights Action, the Corporation shall immediately give notice to P&O
Princess of the nature of the Joint Electorate Action or the Class Rights
Action it proposes to take. Unless such action is proposed to be taken at the
Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors shall convene a Special
Meeting for the purpose of considering a resolution to approve the Joint
Electorate Action or Class Rights Action. Such meeting shall be held as close
in time as practicable with the Parallel Shareholder Meeting convened by P&O
Princess for purposes of considering such Joint Electorate Action or Class
Rights Action.

      (a)  The Corporation shall cooperate fully with P&O Princess in preparing
   resolutions, explanatory memoranda or any other information or material
   required in connection with the proposed Joint Electorate Action or Class
   Rights Action.

   Section 2.7  Quorum, Manner of Acting and Adjournment.

      (a)  The presence in person or by proxy at any meeting of Shareholders
   holding at least one-third of the total votes entitled to be cast shall
   constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting except
   as otherwise required by Applicable Regulation, the Articles of
   Incorporation or these By-Laws. When a quorum is once present to organize a
   meeting of Shareholders, it is not broken by the subsequent withdrawal of
   any Shareholders. The holders of a majority of the shares of stock present
   in person or represented by proxy at any meeting of Shareholders, including
   an adjourned meeting, whether or not a quorum is present, may adjourn such
   meeting to another time and place. The Secretary shall give notice to P&O
   Princess as soon as possible of an adjournment and of the business to be
   transacted at an adjourned meeting.

      (b)  When a quorum for the transaction of business is present at any
   meeting, a Majority Resolution shall decide such question brought before
   such meeting, unless the question is one upon which, by express provision of
   Applicable Regulation, the Articles of Incorporation or as provided in these
   By-Laws, a Supermajority Resolution is required, in which case such express
   provision shall govern the decision of such question. Shareholders present
   in person or by proxy at a duly convened meeting can continue to transact
   business until adjournment, notwithstanding withdrawal of Shareholders so as
   to leave fewer than a quorum present.

      (c)  No action required to be taken or which may be taken at any meeting
   of Shareholders may be taken without a meeting, and the power of the
   Shareholders to consent in writing, without a meeting, to the taking of any
   action is specifically denied.

   Section 2.8  Quorum for Joint Electorate Actions and Class Rights Actions.

      (a)  For purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at any meeting
   of Shareholders where a Joint Electorate Action or a Class Rights Action is
   to be considered:

          (i)  if the meeting of Shareholders convenes before the Parallel
       Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess, the Carnival Special Voting Share
       shall, at the commencement of the meeting, have no votes and therefore
       shall not be counted for purposes of determining the total number of
       shares entitled to vote at such meeting or whether a quorum exists at
       such meeting, although the Carnival Special Voting Share itself must be
       present, either in person (through a representative of Carnival SVC) or
       by proxy;

                                      2



          (ii)  if the meeting of the Shareholders convenes at substantially
       the same time as or after the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O
       Princess with respect to one or more Joint Electorate Actions and no
       Class Rights Actions, the Carnival Special Voting Share will have the
       maximum number of votes attached to it as were cast on any such Joint
       Electorate Action multiplied by the Carnival Equivalent Number, either
       for, against or abstained, at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O
       Princess, and such maximum number of votes (including abstentions)
       multiplied by the Carnival Equivalent Number shall constitute shares
       entitled to vote and present for purposes of determining whether a
       quorum exists at such meeting; and

          (iii)  if the meeting of Shareholders convenes at substantially the
       same time as or after the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess
       with respect to one or more Class Rights Actions, the Carnival Special
       Voting Share shall, at the commencement of the meeting, have no votes
       (for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists, but without
       prejudice to any voting rights the Carnival Special Voting Share may
       have under the Articles of Incorporation), and therefore shall not be
       counted for purposes of determining the total number of shares entitled
       to vote at such meeting or whether a quorum exists at such meeting,
       although the Carnival Special Voting Share itself must be present,
       either in person (through a representative of Carnival SVC) or by proxy.

      (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order for a quorum to be validly
   constituted with respect to meetings of Shareholders convened to consider a
   Joint Electorate Action or Class Rights Action, Carnival SVC must be present
   at such meeting.

   Section 2.9  Organization.  At every meeting of Shareholders, the Chairman
of the Board, if there be one, or in the case of vacancy in the office or
absence of the Chairman of the Board, one of the following persons present in
the order stated: the vice chairman of the Board, if there be one or in their
order of rank or seniority if there be more than one, the Chief Executive
Officer, the President, the vice presidents in their order of rank or
seniority, a chairman designated by those members of the Board of Directors
present at the meeting or a chairman chosen by Shareholders shall act as
chairman, and the Secretary, or in his absence, an assistant secretary, or in
the absence of the Secretary and assistant secretaries, a person appointed by
the Chairman, shall act as secretary.

   Section 2.10  Voting by Ballot.  Any resolution to be considered at a
meeting of Shareholders in relation to which the Carnival SVC is or may be
entitled to vote shall be decided by ballot. The ballot shall be kept open for
such time as to allow the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess to be
held and for the votes attaching to the Carnival Special Voting Share to be
calculated and cast on such ballot, although such ballot may be closed earlier
in respect of shares of other classes. The chairman of the meeting shall direct
the procedures for voting by ballot.

   Section 2.11  Voting by Proxy.  Each Shareholder entitled to vote at a
meeting of Shareholders may authorize any person to act for him by proxy. A
proxy deposited by Carnival SVC will be valid if it is received by or delivered
to the chairman of the meeting before the close of the ballot to which it
relates. To be valid, a proxy must comply in form and substance with all
applicable provisions of Panamanian law.

   Section 2.12  Cumulative Voting.  Cumulative voting for directors shall not
be permitted.

   Section 2.13  List of Shareholders.  The Secretary shall prepare and make,
or cause to be prepared and made, at least ten days before every meeting of
Shareholders, a complete list of Shareholders, entitled to vote at the meeting,
arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each Shareholder and
the number of shares registered in the name of each Shareholder. Such list
shall be open to the examination of any Shareholder, for any purpose germane to
the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10)
days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting
is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the

                                      3



meeting or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held.
The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting
during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any Shareholder who is
present.

Section 2.14  Inspectors of Election.

      (a)  In advance of any meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors
   may appoint inspectors of election, who need not be Shareholders, to act at
   such meeting or any adjournment thereof. If inspectors of election are not
   so appointed, the person presiding at any such meeting may, and on the
   request of any Shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting and before voting
   begins shall, appoint inspectors of election. In case any absence of the
   Chairman of the Board and the President, the persons designated pursuant to
   Section 2.9 shall act as chairman and secretary of the meeting.

      (b)  On request of the person presiding at the meeting or any Shareholder
   entitled to vote thereat, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of
   any challenge or question or matter determined by them, and execute a sworn
   certificate of any fact found by them. Any such report or certificate shall
   be prima facie evidence of the facts stated and on the vote as certified by
   him or them.

   Section 2.15  Actions for Shareholder Approval.

      (a)  All actions to be approved by the holders of Carnival Common Stock
   shall be Joint Electorate Actions, Class Rights Actions or Procedural
   Resolutions.

      (b)  No resolution with respect to a Joint Electorate Action or a Class
   Rights Action shall be approved unless the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of
   P&O Princess is validly held and a vote of the holders of P&O Princess
   Ordinary Shares is held on an Equivalent Resolution.

   Section 2.16  Joint Electorate Actions.  All actions put to the holders of
Carnival Common Stock or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, except for Class Rights
Actions and Procedural Resolutions, shall constitute Joint Electorate Actions.
For the avoidance of doubt, the following actions, if put to the holders of
Carnival Common Stock or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares, shall constitute Joint
Electorate Actions:

      (a)  the appointment, removal or re-election of any director of the
   Corporation or P&O Princess, or both of them;

      (b)  to the extent such receipt or adoption is required by Applicable
   Regulations, the receipt or adoption of the Corporation's or P&O Princess'
   financial statements, or both of them, or accounts prepared on a combined
   basis, other than any accounts in respect of the period(s) ended prior to
   the date of the Equalization Agreement;

      (c)  a change of name of either the Corporation, P&O Princess, or both of
   them; and

      (d)  the appointment or removal of the auditors of the Corporation or P&O
   Princess, or both of them.

   Section 2.17  Procedure for Approval of Joint Electorate Actions.

      (a)  If the Corporation proposes to take any Joint Electorate Action,
   such action shall require approval by Majority Resolution (or if Applicable
   Regulations, the Articles of Incorporation or these By-Laws require the
   action to be approved by a Supermajority Resolution, by the vote required
   thereby) of the holders of Carnival Common Stock, holders of the
   Corporation's Other Voting Shares and the Carnival SVC, voting together as a
   single class by ballot.

      (b)  No resolution will be approved with respect to a Joint Electorate
   Action unless at least one-third of the total votes entitled to be cast by
   (i) the holders of Carnival Common Stock, and (ii)

                                      4



   the Carnival SVC (assuming for purposes of this calculation only that all
   holders of issued and outstanding P&O Princess Ordinary Shares voted at the
   Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess) are cast on the resolution
   proposing such Joint Electorate Action.

      (c)  If P&O Princess proposes to take any Joint Electorate Action, the
   Corporation shall convene a Special Meeting, unless such action is proposed
   for an Annual Meeting, as close in time as practicable to such P&O Princess
   shareholders meeting to consider such action and shall propose a resolution
   which is an Equivalent Resolution to the proposed P&O Princess resolution
   with respect to such Joint Electorate Action. Such Equivalent Resolution
   shall be proposed as a Majority Resolution, unless Applicable Regulations,
   the Articles of Incorporation or these By-Laws require the Joint Electorate
   Action to be approved by a Supermajority Resolution.

      (d)  In relation to a resolution of the Corporation to approve a Joint
   Electorate Action at any meeting of Shareholders, the Carnival Special
   Voting Share shall carry:

          (i)  such number of votes in favour of the resolution as were cast in
       favour of the Equivalent Resolution at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting
       of P&O Princess by holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other
       Voting Shares of P&O Princess;

          (ii)  such number of votes against the resolution as were cast
       against the Equivalent Resolution at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of
       P&O Princess by holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other Voting
       Shares of P&O Princess; and

          (iii)  such number of abstentions as were recorded as abstentions
       from the Equivalent Resolution at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of
       P&O Princess by holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other Voting
       Shares of P&O Princess;

in each case, multiplied by the Carnival Equivalent Number in effect at the
time such meeting of the Shareholders is held and in each case rounded up to
the nearest whole number, such votes to be cast by the holder of the Carnival
Special Voting Share in accordance with the above provisions.

   Section 2.18  Class Rights Action.  The following actions constitute Class
Rights Actions:

      (a)  the voluntary Liquidation of the Corporation or P&O Princess for
   which the approval of shareholders of the Corporation is required by
   Applicable Regulations or proposed other than a voluntary Liquidation of
   both P&O Princess and the Corporation at or about the same time with the
   purpose or effect of no longer continuing the operation of the businesses of
   the companies as a combined going concern and not as part of a scheme, plan,
   transaction, or series of related transactions the primary purpose or effect
   of which is to reconstitute all or a substantial part of such businesses in
   one or more successor entities;

      (b)  the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or
   substantially all of the assets of either P&O Princess or the Corporation,
   other than in a bona fide commercial transaction undertaken for a valid
   business purpose in which such company receives consideration with a fair
   market value reasonably equivalent to the assets disposed of and not as a
   part of a scheme, plan, transaction or series of related transactions the
   primary purpose of which is to collapse or unify the DLC Structure;

      (c)  any adjustment to the Equalization Ratio, otherwise than in
   accordance with the provisions of the Equalization Agreement;

      (d)  except where specifically provided for in such agreements, any
   amendment to the terms of, or termination of, the Equalization Agreement,
   the SVE Special Voting Deed, the Carnival Deed of Guarantee or the P&O
   Princess Deed of Guarantee (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the
   voluntary termination of either Deed of Guarantee);

      (e)  any amendment to, removal or alteration of the effect of (which
   shall include the ratification of any breach of) any Carnival Entrenched
   Provision or any P&O Princess Entrenched Provision;

                                      5



      (f)  any amendment to, removal or alteration of the effect of (which
   shall include the ratification of any breach of) Article XII or XIII of the
   Articles of Incorporation that would cause, or at the time of implementation
   would be reasonably likely to cause, an Exchange Event described in clause
   (a) of the definition of such term in the P&O Princess Articles of
   Association to occur; and

      (g)  the doing of anything which the Board of Directors and the P&O
   Princess Board agree (either in a particular case or generally), in their
   absolute discretion, should be approved as a Class Rights Action.

Notwithstanding anything in these By-Laws to the contrary, none of the
foregoing actions may be taken by the Corporation unless it has been approved
as a Class Rights Action in accordance with Section 2.19.

   Section 2.19  Procedure for Approval of Class Rights Actions.

      (a)  If the Corporation proposes to take any Class Rights Action, such
   action shall require approval by a Majority Resolution (or, if Applicable
   Regulations, the Articles of Incorporation or these By-Laws require the
   action to be approved by a Supermajority Resolution, by the vote required
   thereby) of holders of Carnival Common Stock, holders of Other Voting Shares
   of the Corporation, and the Carnival SVC, voting together as a single class
   by ballot.

      (b)  If the proposed Class Rights Action is approved by the requisite
   vote (as determined in accordance with the P&O Princess Memorandum and
   Articles) of the holders of P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other Voting
   Shares of P&O Princess entitled to vote thereon at the Parallel Shareholder
   Meeting of P&O Princess, the Carnival Special Voting Share shall have no
   votes with respect to such proposed Class Rights Action. If the proposed
   Class Rights Action is not approved by the requisite vote (as determined in
   accordance with the P&O Princess Memorandum and Articles) of the holders of
   P&O Princess Ordinary Shares and Other Voting Shares of P&O Princess,
   entitled to vote thereon at the Parallel Shareholder Meeting of P&O Princess:

          (i)  if the resolution needs to be passed by a Majority Resolution,
       then the Carnival Special Voting Share shall be entitled to cast such
       number of votes representing the largest whole percentage that is less
       than the percentage of the number of votes as would be necessary to
       defeat a Majority Resolution if the total votes capable of being cast by
       the outstanding Carnival Common Stock and Other Voting Shares of
       Carnival that are entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations
       and/or the Carnival Articles and By-Laws (excluding the Carnival Special
       Voting Share) were cast in favour of the resolution at the Carnival
       Special Meeting, and all such votes shall be cast against approval of
       such resolution; and

          (ii)  if the resolution needs to be passed by a Supermajority
       Resolution, then the Carnival Special Voting Share shall be entitled to
       cast such number of votes representing the largest whole percentage that
       is less than the percentage of the number of votes as would be necessary
       to defeat a Supermajority Resolution if the total votes capable of being
       cast by the outstanding Carnival Common Stock and Other Voting Shares of
       Carnival that are entitled to vote pursuant to Applicable Regulations
       and/or the Carnival Articles and By-Laws (excluding the Carnival Special
       Voting Share) were cast in favour of the resolution at the Carnival
       Special Meeting, and all such votes shall be cast against approval of
       such resolution.

By way of further explanation, expressed as a formula, the Carnival Special
Voting Share shall be entitled to cast the following number of votes:


                                                   
          --                                       --
            One percentage point less than
            the minimum percent needed               X   Number of votes entitled to be cast (excluding
            to defeat the resolution                           the Carnival Special Voting Share)
            ---------------------------------------
             100 percent -- Minimum percent needed
                       to defeat the resolution
          --                                       --


                                      6



Accordingly, for a Majority Resolution, 50 percent is the minimum percent
needed to defeat the resolution, and the figure in brackets would be 98
percent. In the event that a Super Majority Resolution is required to carry in
excess of 75 percent of the votes cast, then 25 percent would be the minimum
percent needed to defeat the resolution, and the figure in brackets would be 32
percent.

      (c)  If P&O Princess proposes to take any Class Rights Action, the
   Corporation shall convene a Special Meeting, unless such action is proposed
   for an Annual Meeting, as close in time as practicable to the P&O Princess
   shareholders meeting at which the P&O Princess resolution in respect of such
   Class Rights Action is to be proposed, and shall propose an Equivalent
   Resolution. Such Equivalent Resolution shall be proposed as a Majority
   Resolution, unless Applicable Regulations, the Articles of Incorporation or
   these By-Laws require the Class Rights Action to be approved by a
   Supermajority Resolution.

   Section 2.20  Procedural Resolutions.  The Carnival Special Voting Share
shall have no right to vote on any resolution of a procedural or technical
nature, which does not adversely affect the shareholders of P&O Princess in any
material respect, put to the Shareholders at a meeting ("Procedural
Resolutions"), nor shall notice of such meeting to Shareholders be required to
include reference to these matters. The Chairman of the Board will, in his
absolute discretion, determine whether a resolution is a Procedural Resolution.
Subject to the foregoing and without limitation, to the extent that such
matters require the approval of Shareholders, any of the following shall be
Procedural Resolutions:

      (a)  that certain people be allowed to attend or be excluded from
   attending the meeting;

      (b)  that discussion be closed and the question put to the vote (provided
   no amendments have been raised);

      (c)  that the question under discussion not be put to the vote (where a
   shareholder feels the original motion should not be put to the meeting at
   all, if such original motion was brought during the course of that meeting);

      (d)  to proceed with matters in an order other than that set out in the
   notice of the meeting;

      (e)  to adjourn the debate (for example, to a subsequent meeting);and

      (f)  to adjourn the meeting.

                                  ARTICLE III
                              Board of Directors

   Section 3.1  Powers.  All powers of the Corporation, except those
specifically reserved or granted to Shareholders by Applicable Regulation, the
Articles of Incorporation or these By-Laws, are hereby granted to and vested in

   committee to consist of two or more directors. The Board may designate one
   or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any
   absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In the
   absence or disqualification of a

                                      9



   member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting
   and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a
   quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the
   meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.

      (b)  Any committee designated by the Board of Directors shall have and
   may exercise such powers and authorities as shall be provided in the
   resolution of the Board of Directors establishing such committee; but no

his service as such, shall be entitled to receive from the Corporation such
amount per annum or such fees for attendance at directors' meetings, or both,
as the Board may from time to time determine, together with reimbursement for
the reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with the performance of
his duties. Each director who shall serve as a member of any committee of
directors in consideration of his serving as such shall be entitled to such
additional amount per annum or such fees for attendance at committee meetings,
or both, as the Board may from time to time determine, together with
reimbursement for the reasonable expenses incurred by him in the performance of

       necessary or desirable for the application, implementation, protection,
       furtherance or maintenance of the dual listed company relationship with
       P&O Princess constituted by or arising out of any agreement or
       arrangement.

      (b)  Subject to Applicable Regulation, nothing done by any director in
   good faith pursuant to such authority and obligations shall constitute a
   breach of the fiduciary duties of such director to the Corporation or
   Shareholders. In particular, the directors shall, in addition to their
   duties to the Corporation, be entitled to have regard to the interests of
   the Combined Shareholders as if the Corporation and P&O Princess were a
   single legal entity. They are also authorized to provide to P&O Princess and
   any officer, employee or agent of P&O Princess any information relating to

Directors or appointed by delegated authority may be removed at any time with
or without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of members of the Board
of Directors then in office. The removal of an officer without cause shall be

Chairman of the Board has not been chosen or is unavailable, the Vice-Chairman

time may be prescribed by the Board.

constituting committees of the Board of Directors), as it deems necessary, who

perform such duties as are provided in these By-Laws, or as the Board of
Directors may from time to time determine. The Board of Directors may delegate
to any officer or committee of the Board of Directors referred to in Section

employees or other agents, or committees (not constituting committees of the
Board of Directors) and to prescribe the authority, duties and compensation of
such subordinate officers, committees, employees or other agents.

treasurer, and may bear the corporate seal, which may be a facsimile. The

other than the Corporation itself or its employees. In case any officer who has

certificate shall have ceased to be such officer before the certificate is
issued it may be issued or delivered with the same effect as if he were such
officer at the date of its issue or delivery. The Corporation shall keep a
record containing the names and addresses of all registered Shareholders, the
number and class of shares held by each and the date when they respectively
became the owners of record thereof.

   Section 5.2  Transfer.

   made only on the books of the Corporation only by the person named in the
   certificate or by his attorney lawfully constituted and upon surrender of
   and cancellation of the certificate therefor. Every transfer of shares by
   holders of record shall be entered on the stock book of the Corporation.
   Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation
   of a certificate for registered shares duly endorsed or accompanied by
   proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer, it shall
   be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person
   entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon
   its books. No transfer of shares of capital stock shall be valid as against
   the Corporation, its shareholders and creditors for any purpose except to
   render the transferee liable for the debts of the Corporation to the extent
   provided by law until such transfer shall have been entered on the books of
   the Corporation by an entry showing from and to whom transferred.

      (b)  Any applicant wishing to transfer shares shall pay to the
   Corporation any stamp or other duties or taxes payable in respect of the

   such transfer, all prior to and as a condition precedent to the issuance of
   any new certificates to such applicant.

   Section 5.3  Transfer of the Carnival Special Voting Share.  No transfer of
the Carnival Special Voting Share will take effect until the transfer has been

   Section 5.4  Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Certificates.  The holder
of any shares of capital stock of the corporation shall immediately notify the
Corporation of any loss, destruction, theft or mutilation of the certificate
representing such shares, and the corporation may issue a new certificate to
replace the certificate alleged to have been lost, destroyed, stolen or
mutilated. The Board may, in its discretion, as a condition to the issue of any
such new certificate, require the owner of the lost, destroyed, stolen or
mutilated certificate, or his legal representatives, to make proof satisfactory
to the Board of such loss, destruction, theft or mutilation and to advertise
such fact in such manner as the Board may require, and to give the Corporation
and its transfer agents and registrars, or such of them as the Board may
require, a bond in such form, in such sums and with such surety or sureties as
the Board may direct, to indemnify the Corporation and its transfer agents and
registrars against any claim that may be made against any of them on account of
the continued existence of any such certificate so alleged to have been lost,
destroyed, stolen or mutilated and against any expense in connection with such
claim.

                                      12



   Section 5.5  Record Holder of Shares.  The Corporation shall be entitled to
recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner
of registered shares to receive dividends, to vote and to exercise any other

any proposed corporate action without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment
of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights in respect of

record is fixed:

   waived, at the close of business on the date next preceding the day on which
   the meeting is held;

      (b)  The record date for determining stockholders entitled to express
   consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior
   action by the Board is necessary, shall be the day on which the first
   written consent is expressed; and

      (c)  The record date for determining stockholders for any purpose other
   than those specified in subsections (a) and (b) shall be at the close of
   business on the day on which the Board adopts resolution relating thereto.

A determination of registered Shareholders of record entitled to notice of or
to vote at a meeting of Shareholders shall apply to any adjournment of the
meeting; except that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for an
adjourned meeting.

   provision of Applicable Regulation, the Articles of Incorporation or these
   By-Laws, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons
   entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time stated therein,
   shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

      (b)  Attendance of a person, either in person or by proxy, at any
   meeting, without protesting prior to the conclusion of the meeting the lack
   of notice of such meeting, shall constitute a waiver of notice of such
   meeting.

suit or proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought or threatened based in
whole or in part upon any such state of facts.

   Section 7.2  Indemnification of Other Persons.  The Corporation may

3. Guarantee and Indemnity

    3.1Subject to the terms of this Guarantee, Carnival unconditionally and
       irrevocably undertakes and promises to P&O Princess that it shall, as a
       continuing obligation, make to the Creditor to whom or to which it is
       owed (the "Relevant Creditor") the proper and punctual payment of each

       Relevant Creditor upon written demand upon Carnival by the Relevant
       Creditor. In this Clause 3, references to the Obligations include
       references to any part of them.

       intermediate payment or settlement of account.

    3.3For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Guarantee shall require,
       bind or oblige Carnival to fulfil any non-monetary Obligation of P&O
       Princess of any kind.

    3.4In the event that Carnival is required to make any payment to any

       P&O Princess unconditionally and irrevocably agrees by way of a full
       indemnity to reimburse Carnival in respect of such payments.

    3.5A demand may not be made under this Guarantee without:

       (A)a demand first having been made by the Relevant Creditor on P&O
          Princess; and/or

       (B)to the extent, if any, that the terms of the relevant Obligation of
          P&O Princess (or the underlying obligation of the relevant Principal
          Debtor) require such recourse, recourse first being had to any other
          Person or to any security.

    3.6Unless otherwise provided in this Guarantee, the liabilities and
       obligations of Carnival under this Guarantee shall remain in force
       notwithstanding any act, omission, neglect, event or matter which would
       not affect or discharge the liabilities of P&O Princess owed to the
       Relevant Creditor. Without prejudice to its generality, the foregoing
       shall apply in relation to:

         (A) anything which would have discharged Carnival (wholly or in part)
             but not P&O Princess;

             any legal or equitable defence; and

         (C) any winding-up, insolvency, dissolution and/or analogous
             proceeding of, or any change in constitution or corporate identity

     3.7 Section 3(2) and (4) of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act
         2001 shall not apply to this Guarantee and accordingly:

              (A)In respect of any claim against Carnival by a Creditor,
                 Carnival shall not have available to it by way of defence or
                 set off any matter that arises from or in connection with this
                 Guarantee, and which would have been available to Carnival by
                 way of defence or set-off if the proceedings had been brought
                 against Carnival by P&O Princess.

              (B)Carnival shall not have available to it by way of defence or
                 set-off any matter that would have been available to it by way
                 of defence or set-off against the Creditor if the Creditor had
                 been a party to this Guarantee.

                                       4



              (C)Carnival shall not have available to it by way of counterclaim
                 any matter not arising from this Guarantee that would have
                 been available to it by way of counterclaim against the
                 Creditor if the Creditor had been a party to this Guarantee.

     3.8 Any discharge or release of any liabilities and obligations of
         Carnival under this Guarantee, and any composition or arrangement
         which Carnival may effect with any Creditor in respect of any such
         liabilities or obligations, shall be deemed to be made subject to the
         condition that it will be void to the extent that any or all of the
         payment or security which the Creditor may previously have received or
         may thereafter receive from any Person in respect of the relevant
         Obligations is set aside or reduced under any applicable law or proves
         to have been for any reason invalid.

     3.9 Without prejudice to the generality of this Clause 3, and to Clause
         3.10 in particular, none of the liabilities or obligations of Carnival
         under this Guarantee shall be impaired by any Creditor:

         (A) agreeing with P&O Princess any variation of or departure from
             (however substantial) the terms of any Obligation and any such
             variation or departure shall, whatever its nature, be binding upon
             Carnival in all circumstances; or

         (B) releasing or granting any time or any indulgence whatsoever to P&O
             Princess.

     3.10Despite anything else in this Guarantee (including Clause 3.9), no
         variation of or departure from the terms of any Obligation (or any
         underlying obligation of any Principal Debtor) agreed with P&O
         Princess or any Principal Debtor, as applicable, after termination of
         this Guarantee or exclusion of that Obligation shall be binding on
         Carnival (or extend its liabilities and obligations under this
         Guarantee) except to the extent, if any, that:

         (A) Carnival explicitly agrees in writing to that variation or
             departure at the same time as P&O Princess or that Principal
             Debtor; or

         (B) it reduces Carnival's obligations or liability under this
             Guarantee.

     3.11As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, Carnival
         unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, should any Obligation not
         be recoverable from Carnival under Clause 3.1 as a result of the
         Obligation becoming void, voidable or unenforceable against P&O
         Princess, Carnival undertakes with P&O Princess that it will, as a
         sole, original and independent obligor, make payment of the Obligation
         to the Relevant Creditor by way of a full indemnity on the due date
         provided for payment by the terms of the Obligation.

     3.12Carnival shall, if requested by P&O Princess, (i) enter into
         agreements to act as a co-issuer or co-borrower with respect to any
         Obligation of P&O Princess or (ii) execute and deliver a separate
         guarantee agreement of any Obligation of P&O Princess, in each case,
         on terms satisfactory to Carnival and P&O Princess. If Carnival enters
         into such agreements with respect to any Obligation of P&O Princess,
         Carnival and P&O Princess may agree that such Obligation shall be
         excluded from the scope of this Guarantee in accordance with Clause 4.

4. Exclusion Of Certain Obligations

     4.1 Subject to Clauses 4.2 and 4.3, Carnival and P&O Princess may at any
         time agree that obligations of a particular type, or a particular
         obligation or particular obligations, incurred after the time at which
         such exclusion becomes effective shall be excluded from the scope

                                       5



         of this Guarantee (and shall not be "Obligations" for the purpose of
         this Guarantee) with effect from such future time (being at least 3
         months after the date on which notice of the relevant exclusion is
         given in accordance with Clause 8.2 or, where the Obligation is a
         particular obligation, at least 5 Business Days, or such shorter
         period as the relevant Creditor may agree, after the date on which
         notice of the relevant exclusion is given in accordance with Clause
         4.5) as they may agree.

     4.2 No such agreement or exclusion shall be effective with respect to any
         Existing Obligation.

     4.3 No such agreement or exclusion shall be effective unless and until
         Carnival and P&O Princess enter into a supplemental deed specifying
         the relevant exclusion and the time at which it is to become effective.

     4.4 Notice of any such exclusion of obligations of a particular type, of
         the time at which such exclusion is to become effective, and of the
         date of the related supplemental deed shall be given in accordance
         with Clause 8.2.

     4.5 Notice of any such exclusion of a particular obligation and of the
         time at which it is to become effective shall be given to the relevant
         Creditor in writing addressed to that Creditor at the last address of
         that Creditor known to Carnival and shall be effective when delivered
         to that address. It shall not be necessary for the related
         supplemental deed to have been entered into before that notice is
         sent, nor for the notice to state the date of the related supplemental
         deed.

5. Termination

    5.1Subject to Clause 5.3, this Guarantee shall automatically terminate if,
       and with effect from, the same time as:

       (A)the Equalization and Governance Agreement terminates or otherwise
          ceases to have effect; or

       (B)the P&O Princess Guarantee terminates or otherwise ceases to have
          effect.

    5.2Subject to Clause 5.3, Carnival may at any time terminate this Guarantee
       by giving notice under Clause 8.2 with effect from such future time
       (being at least 3 months after the date on which such notice of
       termination is given) as it may determine. Subject to the next sentence,
       no such termination under this Clause 5.2 shall be effective unless P&O
       Princess agrees to such termination before such notice is given.
       However, such termination shall not require the agreement of P&O
       Princess if:

       (A)Carnival has given notice of the proposed termination of this
          Guarantee in accordance with Clause 8.2; and

       (B)prior to the date set out in such notice, a resolution is passed or
          an order is made for the liquidation of P&O Princess.

    5.3No such termination shall be effective with respect to any Existing
       Obligation.

    5.4Notice of any automatic termination under Clause 5.1, and of the time at
       which it became effective, shall be given in accordance with Clause 8.2
       within 10 Business Days of such termination.

                                       6



6. Amendments

    6.1Subject to Clause 6.2, Carnival and P&O Princess may at any time amend
       this Guarantee by giving notice under Clause 8.2 with effect from such
       future time (being at least 3 months after the date on which notice of
       such amendment is given) as they may determine.

    6.2No such amendment shall be effective with respect to any Existing
       Obligation.

    6.3No such amendment shall be effective unless and until Carnival and P&O
       Princess enter into a supplemental deed specifying the relevant
       amendment and the time at which it is to become effective.

    6.4Notice of any such amendment, of the time at which it is to become
       effective, and of the date of the related supplemental deed shall be
       given in accordance with Clause 8.2.

7. Currency

    7.1All payments to be made under this Guarantee shall be made in the
       currency or currencies in which the Obligations are expressed to be
       payable by P&O Princess.

    7.2If, under any applicable law, whether as a result of a judgment against
       Carnival or P&O Princess or the liquidation of Carnival or P&O Princess
       or for any other reason, any payment under or in connection with this
       Guarantee is made or is recovered in a currency (the "other currency")
       other than that in which it is required to be paid under the terms of
       the relevant Obligation (the "agreed currency") then, to the extent that
       the payment to the Creditor (when converted at the rate of exchange on
       the date of payment, or in the case of a liquidation, the latest date
       for the determination of liabilities permitted by the applicable law)
       falls short of the amount due and unpaid in respect of that Obligation,
       Carnival undertakes with P&O Princess that it shall, as a separate and
       independent obligation, fully indemnify the Creditor against the amount
       of the shortfall, and for the purposes of this Clause 7, "rate of
       exchange" means the spot rate at which the Creditor is able on the
       relevant date to purchase the agreed currency with the other currency.

8. Notices

    8.1Any notice to or demand upon Carnival under this Guarantee shall be in
       writing addressed to it at its principal place of business in the U.S.A.
       for the time being (marked for the attention of the Chief Financial
       Officer, with a copy sent to the General Counsel and Secretary) and
       shall be effective when delivered to that principal place of business.

    8.2Any notice to or demand upon P&O Princess under this Guarantee shall be
       in writing addressed to it at its principal place of business in the
       U.S.A. for the time being (marked for the attention of the Chief
       Financial Officer, with a copy sent to the General Counsel and
       Secretary) and shall be effective when delivered to that principal place
       of business.

    8.3Any notice by Carnival under Clause 4.4, 5.4 or 6.4 shall be given by
       advertisements in the Financial Times (London Edition) and the Wall
       Street Journal (but, if at any time Carnival determines that
       advertisement in such newspaper(s) is not practicable, the relevant
       advertisement shall instead be published in such other newspaper(s)
       circulating generally in the United Kingdom or the U.S.A., as the case
       may be, as Carnival shall determine). Any such notice shall be deemed
       given on the date of publication in such newspaper in the United Kingdom
       or the U.S.A., as the case may be (or, where such advertisements are
       published on different dates, on the later of such dates).

                                       7



    8.4The original counterparts of this Guarantee and of any related
       supplemental deeds shall be kept at, respectively, the principal place
       of business in the U.S.A. for the time being of Carnival and the
       principal place of business in the U.S.A. for the time being of P&O

       notice during the normal business hours of that office.

9. General

    9.1Prohibition and Enforceability

       Any provision of, or the application of any provision of, this Guarantee
       which is void, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction does not

       other jurisdiction or of the remaining provisions in that or any other
       jurisdiction.

    9.2Further Assurances

       Carnival and P&O Princess shall take all steps, execute all documents

    3.3For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Guarantee shall require,
       bind or oblige P&O Princess to fulfil any non-monetary Obligation of
       Carnival of any kind.

    3.4In the event that P&O Princess is required to make any payment to any
       Creditor pursuant to Clause 3.1 and/or 3.11 and does make such payment,
       Carnival unconditionally and irrevocably agrees by way of a full
       indemnity to reimburse P&O Princess in respect of such payments.

    3.5A demand may not be made under this Guarantee without:

       (A)a demand first having been made by the Relevant Creditor on Carnival;
          and/or

       (B)to the extent, if any, that the terms of the relevant Obligation of
          Carnival (or the underlying obligation of the relevant Principal
          Debtor) require such recourse, recourse first being had to any other
          Person or to any security.

    3.6Unless otherwise provided in this Guarantee, the liabilities and
       obligations of P&O Princess under this Guarantee shall remain in force
       notwithstanding any act, omission, neglect, event or matter which would
       not affect or discharge the liabilities of Carnival owed to the Relevant
       Creditor. Without prejudice to its generality, the foregoing shall apply
       in relation to:

       (A)anything which would have discharged P&O Princess (wholly or in part)
          but not Carnival;

       (B)anything which would have offered P&O Princess (but not Carnival) any
          legal or equitable defence; and

       (C)any winding-up, insolvency, dissolution and/or analogous proceeding
          of, or any change in constitution or corporate identity or loss of
          corporate identity by, Carnival or any other Person.

     3.7 Section 3(2) and (4) of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act
         2001 shall not apply to this Guarantee and accordingly:

         (A) In respect of any claim against P&O Princess by a Creditor, P&O
             Princess shall not have available to it by way of defence or set
             off any matter that arises from or in connection with this
             Guarantee, and which would have been available to P&O Princess by
             way of defence or set-off if the proceedings had been brought
             against P&O Princess by Carnival.

         (B) P&O Princess shall not have available to it by way of defence or
             set-off any matter that would have been available to it by way of
             defence or set-off against the Creditor if the Creditor had been a
             party to this Guarantee.

         (C) P&O Princess shall not have available to it by way of counterclaim
             any matter not arising from this Guarantee that would have been
             available to it by way of counterclaim against the Creditor if the
             Creditor had been a party to this Guarantee.

                                       4



     3.8 Any discharge or release of any liabilities and obligations of P&O
         Princess under this Guarantee, and any composition or arrangement
         which P&O Princess may effect with any Creditor in respect of any such
         liabilities or obligations, shall be deemed to be made subject to the
         condition that it will be void to the extent that any or all of the
         payment or security which the Creditor may previously have received or
         may thereafter receive from any Person in respect of the relevant
         Obligations is set aside or reduced under any applicable law or proves
         to have been for any reason invalid.

     3.9 Without prejudice to the generality of this Clause 3, and to Clause
         3.10 in particular, none of the liabilities or obligations of P&O
         Princess under this Guarantee shall be impaired by any Creditor:

         (A) agreeing with Carnival any variation of or departure from (however
             substantial) the terms of any Obligation and any such variation or
             departure shall, whatever its nature, be binding upon P&O Princess
             in all circumstances; or

         (B) releasing or granting any time or any indulgence whatsoever to
             Carnival.

     3.10Despite anything else in this Guarantee (including Clause 3.9), no
         variation of or departure from the terms of any Obligation (or any
         underlying obligation of any Principal Debtor) agreed with Carnival or
         any Principal Debtor, as applicable, after termination of this
         Guarantee or exclusion of that Obligation shall be binding on P&O
         Princess (or extend its liabilities and obligations under this
         Guarantee) except to the extent, if any, that:

         (A) P&O Princess explicitly agrees in writing to that variation or
             departure at the same time as Carnival or that Principal Debtor; or

         (B) it reduces P&O Princess' obligations or liability under this
             Guarantee.

     3.11As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, P&O Princess
         unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, should any Obligation not
         be recoverable from P&O Princess under Clause 3.1 as a result of the
         Obligation becoming void, voidable or unenforceable against Carnival,
         P&O Princess undertakes with Carnival that it will, as a sole,
         original and independent obligor, make payment of the Obligation to
         the Relevant Creditor by way of a full indemnity on the due date
         provided for payment by the terms of the Obligation.

     3.12P&O Princess shall, if requested by Carnival, (i) enter into
         agreements to act as a co-issuer or co-borrower with respect to any
         Obligation of Carnival or (ii) execute and deliver a separate
         guarantee agreement of any Obligation of Carnival, in each case, on
         terms satisfactory to P&O Princess and Carnival. If P&O Princess
         enters into such agreements with respect to any Obligation of
         Carnival, P&O Princess and Carnival may agree that such Obligation
         shall be excluded from the scope of this Guarantee in accordance with
         Clause 4 hereof.

4. Exclusion Of Certain Obligations

    4.1Subject to Clauses 4.2 and 4.3, P&O Princess and Carnival may at any
       time agree that obligations of a particular type, or a particular
       obligation or particular obligations, incurred after the time at which
       such exclusion becomes effective shall be excluded from the scope of
       this Guarantee (and shall not be "Obligations" for the purpose of this
       Guarantee) with effect from such future time (being at least 3 months
       after the date on which notice of the relevant exclusion is given in
       accordance with Clause 8.2 or, where the Obligation is a particular
       obligation, at least 5 Business Days, or such shorter period as the
       relevant Creditor may agree, after the date on which notice of the
       relevant exclusion is given in accordance with Clause 4.5) as they may
       agree.

                                       5



    4.2No such agreement or exclusion shall be effective with respect to any
       Existing Obligation.

    4.3No such agreement or exclusion shall be effective unless and until P&O
       Princess and Carnival enter into a supplemental deed specifying the
       relevant exclusion and the time at which it is to become effective.

    4.4Notice of any such exclusion of obligations of a particular type, of the
       time at which such exclusion is to become effective, and of the date of
       the related supplemental deed, shall be given in accordance with Clause
       8.2.

    4.5Notice of any such exclusion of a particular obligation and of the time
       at which it is to become effective shall be given to the relevant
       Creditor in writing addressed to that Creditor at the last address of
       that Creditor known to P&O Princess and shall be effective when
       delivered to that address. It shall not be necessary for the related
       supplemental deed to have been entered into before that notice is sent,
       nor for the notice to state the date of the related supplemental deed.

5. Termination

    5.1Subject to Clause 5.3, this Guarantee shall automatically terminate if,
       and with effect from, the same time as:

       (A)the Equalization and Governance Agreement terminates or otherwise
          ceases to have effect; or

       (B)the Carnival Guarantee terminates or otherwise ceases to have effect.

    5.2Subject to Clause 5.3, P&O Princess may at any time terminate this
       Guarantee by giving notice under Clause 8.2 with effect from such future
       time (being at least 3 months after the date on which such notice of
       termination is given) as it may determine. Subject to the next sentence,
       no such termination under this Clause 5.2 shall be effective unless
       Carnival agrees to such termination before such notice is given.
       However, such termination shall not require the agreement of Carnival if:

       (A)P&O Princess has given notice of the proposed termination of this
          Guarantee in accordance with Clause 8.2; and

       (B)prior to the date set out in such notice, a resolution is passed or
          an order is made for the liquidation of Carnival.

    5.3No such termination shall be effective with respect to any Existing
       Obligation.

    5.4Notice of any automatic termination under Clause 5.1, and of the time at
       which it became effective, shall be given in accordance with Clause 8.2
       within 10 Business Days of such termination.

6. Amendments

    6.1Subject to Clause 6.2, P&O Princess and Carnival may at any time amend
       this Guarantee by giving notice under Clause 8.2 with effect from such
       future time (being at least 3 months after the date on which notice of
       such amendment is given) as they may determine.

    6.2No such amendment shall be effective with respect to any Existing
       Obligation.

    6.3No such amendment shall be effective unless and until P&O Princess and
       Carnival enter into a supplemental deed specifying the relevant
       amendment and the time at which it is to become effective.

                                       6



    6.4Notice of any such amendment, of the time at which it is to become
       effective, and of the date of the related supplemental deed, shall be
       given in accordance with Clause 8.2.

7. Currency

    7.1All payments to be made under this Guarantee shall be made in the
       currency or currencies in which the Obligations are expressed to be
       payable by Carnival.

    7.2If, under any applicable law, whether as a result of a judgment against
       P&O Princess or Carnival or the liquidation of P&O Princess or Carnival
       or for any other reason, any payment under or in connection with this
       Guarantee is made or is recovered in a currency (the "other currency")
       other than that in which it is required to be paid under the terms of
       the relevant Obligation (the "agreed currency") then, to the extent that
       the payment to the Creditor (when converted at the rate of exchange on
       the date of payment, or in the case of a liquidation, the latest date
       for the determination of liabilities permitted by the applicable law)
       falls short of the amount due and unpaid in respect of that Obligation,
       P&O Princess undertakes with Carnival that it shall, as a separate and
       independent obligation, fully indemnify the Creditor against the amount
       of the shortfall, and for the purposes of this Clause 7, "rate of
       exchange" means the spot rate at which the Creditor is able on the
       relevant date to purchase the agreed currency with the other currency.

8. Notices

    8.1Any notice to or demand upon P&O Princess under this Guarantee shall be
       in writing addressed to it at its principal place of business in the
       U.S.A. for the time being (marked for the attention of the Chief
       Financial Officer, with a copy sent to the General Counsel and
       Secretary) and shall be effective when delivered to that principal place
       of business.

    8.2Any notice to or demand upon Carnival under this Guarantee shall be in
       writing addressed to it at its principal place of business in the U.S.A.
       for the time being (marked for the attention of the Chief Financial
       Officer, with a copy sent to the General Counsel and Secretary) and
       shall be effective when delivered to that principal place of business.

    8.3Any notice by P&O Princess under Clause 4.4, 5.4 or 6.4 shall be given
       by advertisements in the Financial Times (London Edition) and the Wall
       Street Journal (but, if at any time P&O Princess determines that
       advertisement in such newspaper(s) is not practicable, the relevant
       advertisement shall instead be published in such other newspaper(s)
       circulating generally in the United Kingdom or the U.S.A., as the case
       may be, as P&O Princess shall determine). Any such notice shall be
       deemed given on the date of publication in such newspaper in the United
       Kingdom or the U.S.A., as the case may be (or, where such advertisements
       are published on different dates, on the later of such dates).

    8.4The original counterparts of this Guarantee and of any related
       supplemental deeds shall be kept at, respectively, the principal place
       of business in the U.S.A. for the time being of P&O Princess and the
       principal place of business in the U.S.A. for the time being of Carnival
       and shall be available for inspection there on reasonable notice during
       the normal business hours of that office.

9. General

       other jurisdiction or of the remaining provisions in that or any other
       jurisdiction.

inconsistent with the intention of the parties as set forth in this Section 11.

   12.  This Agreement may be amended only by written consent of Carnival and
the Trustee. This Agreement shall only terminate upon the termination of (i)

                                                                      Exhibit A
      Summary of terms of Pairing Agreement and Special Voting Trust Deed

   On [      ], 2003, Carnival Corporation ("Carnival") and P&O Princess
Cruises plc ("P&O Princess") established a dual listed company structure (the
"DLC Structure") under an Offer and Implementation Agreement (the "Offer and
Implementation Agreement") between Carnival and P&O Princess, dated as of
January 8, 2003. In connection with the establishment of the DLC Structure, P&O
Princess issued a Special Voting Share to Carnival. Carnival then transferred
the Special Voting Share to [      ] (the "Trustee") as trustee of the P&O
Princess Special Voting Trust, a newly-formed Cayman Islands trust (the
"Trust"), and the Trust issued to Carnival one share of beneficial interest
(each, a "Trust Share" and together the "Trust Shares") for each outstanding
share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Carnival (the "Carnival
Common Stock"). The Trust Shares represent an equal, absolute, identical,
undivided interest in the property of the Trust, including the Special Voting
Share.

   The Trust Shares have been distributed by Carnival as a dividend to holders
of record of the Carnival Common Stock as of [      ], 2003, in accordance with
the Offer and Implementation Agreement and the Pairing Agreement (the "Pairing
Agreement") between Carnival and the Trustee, dated as of [      ], 2003, at a
rate of one Trust Share for each share of Carnival Common Stock.

   Under the Pairing Agreement:

   .   each Trust Share is represented by and is attached permanently to a
       share of Carnival Common Stock;

   .   the Carnival Common Stock and the Trust Shares will trade together as a
       unit on the New York Stock Exchange under Carnival's existing symbol,
       "CCL";

   .   the certificates representing shares of Carnival Common Stock will also
       represent an equivalent number of Trust Shares; and

   .   the transfer agent for both the Carnival Common Stock and the Trust
       Shares will be [      ] and will be required to register transfers in
       accordance with the Pairing Agreement.

   Therefore, do not send in any certificates representing shares of Common
Stock. You do not need to send in stock certificates in order to receive the
Trust Shares. All certificates representing shares of Carnival Common Stock
issued after [      ], 2003 will bear a legend stating that those certificates
also represent Trust Shares.

   The issuance of the Trust Shares will have no effect on reported earnings
per share or any other per share operating measures of Carnival. Although there
is no U.S. federal income tax authority addressing the tax consequences of a
dual listed company transaction, Carnival believes that the distribution of the
Trust Shares should not give rise to taxable income or gain for U.S. federal
income tax purposes for U.S. holders of Carnival Common Stock. However, the
Internal Revenue Service may assert that U.S. holders of Carnival Common Stock
received taxable income as a result of the various voting and equalisation
provisions necessary to implement the DLC structure. Carnival believes that
such voting and other rights, if any, received by shareholders are expected to
have only nominal value and, therefore, the receipt of such rights by U.S.
Carnival shareholders would only result in a nominal amount of income. It is
possible, however, that the Internal Revenue Service may disagree with this
conclusion. The distribution of the Trust Shares will not change the way in
which you can presently trade the shares of Carnival Common Stock.

   This Voting Trust Deed (this "Voting Trust Deed") is dated [ ], 2003, and is
made by and between [      ] (the "Trust Company," and in its capacity as
Trustee hereunder and any successor thereto appointed hereunder, the
"Trustee"), as Trustee, and Carnival Corporation, a Panamanian corporation
("Carnival"), as depositor, and is being entered into for the purpose of
forming the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust, a trust established under the
laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Trust"), and providing for the issuance of
shares of beneficial interest in the Trust (each a "Share" and together the

   P&O Princess Cruises plc ("P&O Princess") and Carnival are parties to an
Offer and Implementation Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2003 (the "Offer and
Implementation Agreement") pursuant to which, among other things, P&O Princess
and Carnival are establishing a dual listed company structure (the "DLC
Transaction") and creating certain rights for the holders (the "Carnival
Stockholders") of Carnival's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (including
any security into which such common stock is reclassified or converted, the
"Carnival Common Stock") and the holders of P&O Princess ordinary shares.

   Pursuant to the Offer and Implementation Agreement and immediately prior to
the execution and delivery of this Voting Trust Deed, P&O Princess has issued
the Initial Property to Carnival, and Carnival has transferred to the Trustee,
on behalf of and for the benefit of the Shareholders and without recourse, all
the right, title and interest of Carnival, in, to and under the Initial
Property (the "Deposit") to be held by the Trustee on the terms and conditions
set out herein. The Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed are being
entered into by the parties thereto at the same time that this Voting Trust
Deed is being entered into by the parties hereto.

   Pursuant hereto, Carnival and the Trust Company are forming this Trust in
accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands.

   Pursuant to the Offer and Implementation Agreement, and promptly after
receiving the Shares, Carnival shall convey any and all of its interest in the
Shares to Carnival Stockholders.

Trust Property upon and subject to the trusts, powers and provisions of this
Voting Trust Deed.

federal income tax purposes as an "investment trust" under the Code and United
States Treasury Regulation 301.7701-4(c) and, without limitation, a "grantor
trust" under Subpart E, Part I of Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which
the Shareholders will be considered to own the Trust Property for U.S. federal,
state and local income tax purposes, and not as a trust or association taxable
as a corporation or as a partnership.

   or authorized by this Voting Trust Deed. In particular, the Trustee shall
   not and shall not cause the Trust to (i) invest any proceeds (if any)
   received by the Trustee from holding the Trust Property, but shall promptly
   distribute all such proceeds to the Shareholders pursuant to the terms of

   to which the Shareholders will be considered to own the Trust Property for

   as are specifically (i) set forth in this Voting Trust Deed, the Pairing
   Agreement, the SVE Special Voting Deed, and the P&O Princess Articles, or
   (ii) imposed by applicable law. Any permissive right of the Trustee

       funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any
       of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers under

       the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or
       liability is not reasonably assured to it.

otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

       in its choice of any such person (or, in the case of an Opinion of
       Counsel, such counsel is counsel for Carnival), the Trustee shall not be
       responsible for any losses, liabilities, costs, claims, actions,
       damages, expenses or demands which it or any other person may incur or
       which may be made against it or any other person in connection with or

       default or willful breach of its obligations under this Voting Trust
       Deed;

   including, without limitation, the Trustee's right to indemnity under
   Section 7.04(b), all rights of action under this Voting Trust Deed or under

   applicable law, Carnival shall indemnify and keep indemnified the Trustee
   (for itself and as trustee on behalf of its directors, officers, employees,
   controlling persons and every attorney, manager, agent, delegate or other
   person appointed by it under this Voting Trust Deed, the Pairing Agreement
   and the SVE Special Voting Deed) each, an "Indemnified Party" against all
   Liabilities and expenses properly incurred by each Indemnified Party in the
   performance or purported performance of its obligations under this Voting
   Trust Deed, the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed and of any
   powers, authorities or discretions vested in it or such persons pursuant to
   this Voting Trust Deed, the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting
   Deed and against all actions, proceedings, costs, claims, damages, expenses
   and demands in respect of any matter or thing done or omitted in any way
   relating to this Voting Trust Deed, the Pairing Agreement and the SVE
   Special Voting Deed, including without limitation, the institution by the
   Trustee of any Proceedings in respect of any default by Carnival or P&O
   Princess; provided, however, that the indemnity available to the each
   Indemnified Party under this Section 7.04(b) shall not extend to any
   Liability incurred by reason of fraud or negligence on the part of each
   Indemnified Party in the performance of its duties under this Voting Trust
   Deed, the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed, or the willful
   default or willful breach of its obligations under this Voting Trust Deed,
   the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed.

      (c)  With respect to any Proceeding, the Indemnified Parties shall notify
   Carnival promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by
   the Trustee to so notify Carnival shall not relieve Carnival of its
   obligations, hereunder unless such failure to notify results in material
   prejudice to Carnival. Carnival may, by written notice to the Indemnified
   Parties, assume the defense of the Proceeding, and, if Carnival does so, the
   Trustee shall cooperate (at Carnival's expense) in such defense. If the
   Indemnified Parties maintains control of the defense of the Proceeding, it
   shall consult in good faith with Carnival in preparing its defense. Carnival
   need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent
   shall not be unreasonably withheld.

   Section 7.05  Limitation of Powers and Duties. The Trust is established
solely for the purposes of acquiring and holding the Trust Property, entering
into and performing its obligations and exercising its rights under this Voting
Trust Deed, the SVE Special Voting Deed, the Pairing Agreement and the P&O
Princess Articles, issuing the Shares and engaging in activities incidental to
the foregoing. The Trustee is not permitted to incur any debt except as is
necessary to achieve the foregoing. The Trustee is not authorized to acquire
any other investments or engage in any activities not authorized in this Voting
Trust Deed, the SVE Special Voting Deed, P&O Princess Articles or the Pairing
Agreement and, in

                                      15



particular, the Trustee is not authorized (i) to Deal in the P&O Princess
Special Voting Share or interests therein or rights thereto except as required
or permitted in this Voting Trust Deed, the SVE Special Voting Deed, P&O
Princess Articles or the Pairing Agreement or (ii) to do anything that would
cause the Trust to (1) be required to be registered under the Investment
Company Act or (2) cause the Trust to be taxed as an entity other than
investment trust under the Code and United States Treasury Regulation
301.7701-4(c) and, without limitation, a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part I
of Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which the Shareholders will be
considered to own the Trust Property for U.S. federal, state and local income
tax purposes, or otherwise alter the classification of the Trust for U.S.
federal, state and local income tax purposes.

   Section 7.06  Resignation or Removal of the Trustee.

      (a)  Subject to Section 7.06(c), the Trustee may at any time resign and
   be discharged from its obligations and duties under this Voting Trust Deed,
   the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed by giving written
   notice thereof to Carnival. Upon receiving such notice of resignation,
   Carnival shall as promptly as possible (and in any event within 45 calendar
   days after the date of such notice of resignation) appoint a successor
   Trustee (in accordance with this Voting Trust Deed) by written instrument,
   in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee
   and to the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee that has been so
   appointed shall have accepted appointment within 90 calendar days after the
   giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any
   court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
   Upon any appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Section
   7.06(a), Carnival shall be solely liable for (i) the payment of such
   successor Trustee's fees and expenses and (ii) provision of adequate
   indemnities satisfactory to such successor Trustee (it being understood that
   the indemnification obligations of Carnival pursuant to Section 7.04(b)
   shall inure to the benefit of such successor Trustee). For the avoidance of
   doubt and notwithstanding any other provisions of this Voting Trust deed,
   any resignation, retirement or removal of a Trustee shall not release or
   prejudice in any way any of the Trustee's rights to be indemnified by
   Carnival and the other protections afforded to it by Article VII of this
   Voting Trust Deed (such indemnification and other protections being referred
   to as "Trustee's Protections") which Trustee Protections shall continue in
   full force and effect and continue to be enforceable by the Trustee
   notwithstanding such resignation, retirement or removal.

      (b)  At any time, Carnival or its designee may make a written request
   that the Trustee resign. Upon the agreement of the Trustee to so resign or
   if the Trustee fails to resign within a reasonable time after written
   request therefor by Carnival or such designee (and in no event later than 10
   days after the Trustee shall have received such written request), or if at
   any time the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged
   bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall
   be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the
   Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
   conservation or liquidation, then Carnival or such designee may remove the
   Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate,
   which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and to the
   successor Trustee.

      (c)  Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
   successor Trustee pursuant to any of the terms of this Section 7.06 shall
   not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor
   Trustee as provided in Section 7.07.

      (d)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.06, any
   appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to any of the terms of this
   Section 7.06 shall be effective if, and only if, Carnival appoints a
   successor Trustee (other than Carnival) that is not related or subordinate
   to Carnival or P&O Princess, within the meaning of Section 672(c) of the
   Code, and such designated successor so qualifies as Trustee. Carnival may at
   any time release the powers granted under this paragraph.

                                      16



      (e)  The statutory power of appointing a new Trustee shall not become
   exercisable by reason only that a Trustee remains out of the Cayman Islands
   for more than 12 months.

      (f)  The stipulation of Section 6(c) of the Trusts Law (2001 Revision) of
   the Cayman Islands or any statutory modification or reenactment thereof that
   a Trustee shall not be discharged from his trust unless there will be either
   a trust corporation or at least two individuals to act as trustees to
   perform the trust is hereby excluded and, in any event, each and every
   person actually or prospectively interested in the Trust Property is hereby
   excluded from asserting any claim against a Trustee or former Trustee on the
   basis of the said stipulation save to the extent of any trust monies or
   other trust assets actually in the possession or control of such Trustee or
   former Trustee.

   Section 7.07  Successor Trustee.

      (a)  Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.06 shall
   execute, acknowledge and deliver to Carnival and its predecessor Trustee an
   instrument accepting such appointment under this Voting Trust Deed, and
   thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become
   effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
   conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties
   and obligations of the predecessor Trustee under this Voting Trust Deed,
   with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee in this Voting Trust
   Deed. The predecessor Trustee shall deliver to the successor Trustee all
   documents and statements held by it under this Voting Trust Deed, and
   Carnival and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such
   instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more
   fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee all such
   rights, powers, duties and obligations.

      (b)  Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in
   this Section 7.07, the predecessor Trustee shall novate its rights and
   obligations under the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed to
   such successor Trustee.

   Section 7.08  Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.  Any corporation or
association into or with which the Trustee may be merged, amalgamated or
converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or
association resulting from any merger, amalgamation, conversion or
consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or
association succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor
of the Trustee under this Voting Trust Deed, without the execution or filing of
any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Voting
Trust Deed, anything in this Voting Trust Deed to the contrary notwithstanding.

   Section 8.02  Termination.

      (a)  On the Termination Date, the Trustee shall fix the date of the Final
   Distribution, which shall be as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, and
   shall on that date make the Final Distribution, after which the Trust shall
   be dissolved.

      (b)  The respective obligations and responsibilities under this Voting
   Trust Deed and the Pairing Agreement and of Carnival and the Trustee (other
   than the obligations of the Trustee to provide reports and other information
   under this Voting Trust Deed and to make distributions to Shareholders as
   herein set forth and the obligations of Carnival under Section 7.04) shall
   terminate upon the effectuation of the Final Distribution.

                                      17



                                  ARTICLE IX

                              MISCELLANEOUS TERMS

   Section 9.01 Amendment.

      (a)  This Voting Trust Deed may be amended from time to time in writing

   any Shareholder under this Voting Trust Deed; (ii) to cure any ambiguity or
   to correct or supplement any provision in this Voting Trust Deed which may
   be defective or inconsistent with any other provision in this Voting Trust
   Deed, the Pairing Agreement, the SVE Special Voting Deed or the P&O Princess
   Articles; (iii) to add to the covenants, restrictions or obligations of
   Carnival for the benefit of the Shareholders; (iv) to comply with the
   requirements of the law governing this Voting Trust Deed if such governing
   law is changed under Section 9.04(b); (v) to comply with any requirements
   imposed by the Commission or the Code or to qualify the Trust as a "grantor

   successor Trustee.

      (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Voting Trust Deed may also be
   amended from time to time in writing by Carnival and the Trustee with the
   consent of Shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding Shares.

      (c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment to this Voting Trust
   Deed shall be effective if it causes the Trust not to be classified for U.S.
   federal, state and local income tax purposes as an "investment trust" under
   the Code and Treasury Regulation 301.7701-4(c) and, without limitation, as a
   grantor trust under Subpart E, Part I of Subchapter J of the Code pursuant
   to which the Shareholders will be considered to own the Trust Property for
   U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, and not as a trust or
   association taxable as a corporation or as a partnership.

   Section 9.02  Counterparts. This Voting Trust Deed may be executed

be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and

   take any Proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust
   Property or (3) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of
   the parties thereto or any of them.

      (b)  No Shareholder shall have any right to control the operation and
   management of any Trust Property, or the obligations of the parties thereto,
   nor shall anything in this Voting Trust Deed, the Pairing Agreement or the
   SVE Special Voting Deed set forth, or contained in the terms of the Shares
   or the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Shareholders from
   time to time as partners or members of an association. In addition, no
   Shareholder shall be under any liability to any third person by reason of
   any action taken by the parties to this Voting Trust Deed pursuant to any
   provision thereof.

                                      18



   Section 9.04  Governing Law.

      (a)  This Voting Trust Deed and each Share shall initially be governed by
   and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands the courts
   of which shall be the forum of administration of the Trust. The Trustee,
   however, is prohibited from exercising any power or discretion granted under
   said laws that would be inconsistent with the qualification of the trust as
   an investment trust under the Code and Treasury Regulation 301.7701-4(c)
   and, without limitation, as a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part I of
   Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which the Shareholders will be
   considered to own the Trust Property for U.S. federal, state and local
   income tax purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may upon
   obtaining the consent of Carnival, at any time and from time to time, by
   written instrument, declare that the Trust hereunder shall from the date of
   such declaration, or from a date stated in such declaration, take effect in
   accordance with the law of such other jurisdiction as it and Carnival, in
   their sole and absolute discretion, determine, and thereafter the law of
   such other jurisdiction shall govern the validity and construction of the
   Trust hereunder; provided, however, that if the Trustee exercises the
   discretionary power under this Section 9.04(a) to change the situs and
   governing jurisdiction of the Trust under this Voting Trust Deed, it may
   initiate such judicial proceedings (if any) as it deems necessary or
   desirable to accomplish such change, whether or not such proceeding is
   required by the law of the new governing jurisdiction. However, nothing in
   this section 9.04(a) shall be construed as allowing the Trustee to exercise
   this power in a manner that will result in the trust failing to qualify as
   an investment trust under the Code and Treasury Regulation 301.7701-4(c)
   and, without limitation, as a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part I of
   Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which the Shareholders will be
   considered to own the Trust Property for U.S. federal, state and local
   income tax purposes.

      (b)  For so long as the Trust is a trust established under the laws of
   the Cayman Islands, Carnival irrevocably appoints [Walkers] of [PO Box
   265GT, Walker House, Mary Street, George Town, Grand Cayman, Cayman
   Islands], fax number: [+345 949 7886] as its agent to receive on its behalf
   in the Cayman Islands service of such proceedings arising out of or in
   connection with this Voting Trust Deed. Such service shall be deemed
   completed on delivery to such agent (whether or not it is forwarded to and
   received by Carnival). If for any reason such agent ceases to be able to act
   as agent or no longer has an address in the Cayman Islands, Carnival shall
   forthwith appoint a substitute acceptable to the Trustee and deliver to the
   Trustee the new agent's name, address and fax number.

      (c)  At any time or times, without prior court approval but subject to
   applicable legal limitations and subject as mentioned below, upon the
   written request of Carnival, the Trustee shall move (or decline to move) all
   or part of the assets or the situs of administration of the trust from one
   jurisdiction to another jurisdiction and, in connection with such move, this
   Voting Trust Deed and each Share shall be governed by and construed in
   accordance with the laws of such other jurisdiction. The determination of
   Carnival as to any such removal or change of situs may be made by them for
   any reason, including, without limitation, the convenience of Carnival, P&O
   Princess, the Trustee or of the Shareholders; provided, however, that
   nothing in this Section 9.04(b) shall be construed as allowing Carnival to
   exercise this power in a manner that will result in the trust failing to
   qualify at all times for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes
   as an "investment trust" under the Code and Treasury Regulation
   301.7701-4(c) and, without limitation, as a grantor trust under Subpart E,
   Part I of Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which the Shareholders will
   be considered to own the Trust Property for U.S. federal, state and local
   income tax purposes. The Trustee shall not be obliged to take any action
   under this Section 9.04(b) unless and until:

          (i)  it has had a reasonable opportunity to take such professional
       advice (at the expense of Carnival) as it may properly require as to the
       effect on it and its rights, obligations and liabilities arising under
       this Voting Trust Deed and/or (where relevant) the Pairing Agreement and
       the SVE Special Voting Deed of the proposed move of assets or change of
       situs of administration; and

                                      19



          (ii)  it has agreed such amendments and/or additional provisions to
       this Voting Trust Deed with Carnival and/or (where relevant) to this
       Voting Trust Deed and the Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting
       Deed with the parties thereto, as it may require as a condition of
       continuing to act as Trustee under this Voting Trust Deed and the
       Pairing Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed following such move of
       assets or change of situs.

   Section 9.05  Notices. All directions, demands and notices under this Voting
Trust Deed shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the Trustee at the
Corporate Trust Office and a copy of such direction, demand, or notice shall be
sent to the Parent's Address. Any notice required to be given to a Shareholder
shall be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the last address of such
Shareholder set forth in the Share Register or may be given by facsimile to
such number as may be provided to the Trustee. Any notice so mailed within the
time prescribed in this Voting Trust Deed shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given when mailed, whether or not the Shareholder receives such
notice. Notices given by facsimile will be effective upon confirmation
(including electronic confirmation) of effective transmission.

   Section 9.06  Severability of Terms. If any one or more of the covenants,
agreements or terms of this Voting Trust Deed shall be for any reason
whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements or terms shall be
deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements or terms of this
Voting Trust Deed and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of
the other terms of this Voting Trust Deed or of the Shares or the rights of the
Shareholders.

   Section 9.07  No Recourse. Each Shareholder, by its acceptance of a Share,
acknowledges that such Share represents an equal, absolute, identical,
undivided interest in the Trust Property only and does not represent an
interest in or obligation of Carnival, the Trustee or any Affiliate of Carnival
(other than the Trust, if the Trust is deemed to be an Affiliate of Carnival)
or the Trustee and no recourse may be had against such Persons or their
respective assets.

   Section 9.08  Intent of the Parties. The parties intend that the Trust shall
at all time be classified for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes
as an "investment trust" under the Code and Treasury Regulation 301.7701-4(c)
and, without limitation, as a grantor trust under Subpart E, Part I of
Subchapter J of the Code pursuant to which the Shareholders will be considered
to own the Trust Property for U.S. federal, state and local income tax
purposes, and not as a trust or association taxable as a corporation or as a
partnership. Each Shareholder, by its acceptance of its Shares, agrees to treat
the Trust as a grantor trust for all U.S. federal, state and local income tax
purposes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Voting Trust Deed, the
Pairing Agreement or the SVE Special Voting Deed, the provisions of this Voting
Trust Deed shall be interpreted to further this intention and powers granted as
well as obligations undertaken pursuant to this Voting Trust Deed shall be
construed so as to further such intent. No provision of this Voting Trust Deed
shall be of any force or effect if such provision would result in the Trust
being treated in a manner inconsistent with the intention of the parties as set
forth in this Section 9.08.

Section9.09  Voting Trust Deed Binding on Shareholders.  Each Person becoming a
       Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof and knowingly accepting
       a Share shall be bound by this Voting Trust Deed.

                                      20



   IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Carnival and the Trustee have caused this instrument to
be duly executed as a deed as of the date first above written.

Extract: Advice of P&O Princess' Financial Adviser to P&O Princess

The following is extracted from the prospectus being provided to P&O Princess
shareholders in connection with the DLC transaction and the Partial Share Offer:

The P&O Princess board retained Schroder Salomon Smith Barney to act as its
financial adviser with respect to the DLC transaction and the proposed Royal
Caribbean DLC combination. In connection with this engagement, P&O Princess
requested that Schroder Salomon Smith Barney be named in connection with the
P&O Princess board's recommendation of the DLC transaction on 8 January 2003 in
the following terms:

"The P&O Princess board, which has been so advised by Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney, considers the terms of the proposed DLC transaction to be fair and
reasonable. In providing advice to the P&O Princess board, Schroder Salomon
Smith Barney has taken account of the P&O Princess board's commercial
assessments of the proposed DLC transaction."

In providing this advice to the P&O Princess board, Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney:

..   reviewed the Implementation Agreement dated 8 January 2003, including the
    agreed forms of the Equalisation and Governance Agreement and SVE Special
    Voting Deed;

..   held discussions with certain senior officers, directors and other
    representatives and advisers of P&O Princess and certain senior officers,
    directors and other representatives and advisers of Carnival concerning the
    business operations and prospects of P&O Princess and Carnival;

..   examined publicly available business and financial information relating to
    P&O Princess and Carnival;

..   reviewed certain internal financial statements and other financial and
    operating data concerning P&O Princess and Carnival respectively;

..   reviewed the pro forma impact of the DLC transaction on P&O Princess'
    financial results;

..   reviewed the financial terms of the DLC transaction in relation to, among
    other things, current and historical market prices of P&O Princess, the
    financial condition and historical and projected earnings and other
    operating data of P&O Princess and the market capitalisation of P&O
    Princess;

..   analysed certain financial, stock market, and other publicly available
    information relating to the businesses of other companies whose operations
    Schroder Salomon Smith Barney considered relevant in evaluating those of
    P&O Princess and Carnival;

..   considered, to the extent publicly available, the financial terms of
    certain other similar transactions recently effected which Schroder Salomon
    Smith Barney considered relevant in evaluating the DLC transaction;

..   conducted other analyses and examinations and considered other information
    and financial, economic and market criteria as Schroder Salomon Smith
    Barney deemed appropriate in providing its advice; and

..   considered the P&O Princess board's commercial assessments of the DLC
    transaction, including, among other things, the creation of a Combined
    Group which will have the largest and one of the most modern and most
    efficient fleets in the cruise industry and the ability to deploy that
    fleet strategically; a wide portfolio of complementary brands, both by
    geography and product offering

                                      1



   and that will include some of the best known cruise brands globally;
   operating expertise reflecting the combined management of two of the leading
   global cruise operations; and the potential to generate costs savings of at
   least $100 million on an annualized basis, in the first full year following
   completion of the transaction.

Previously, in September 2002, the P&O Princess board sought advice from
Schroder Salomon Smith Barney in connection with the board's examination of
whether Carnival's dual listed company proposal, which Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney refers to as Carnival's DLC Proposal, was more favourable from a
financial point of view than the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination.

In providing this advice to the P&O Princess board, Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney:

..   reviewed the Implementation Agreement including the equalization and
    governance agreement and special voting deed entered into by P&O Princess
    and Royal Caribbean on 19 November 2001

..   reviewed the terms of Carnival's dual listed company proposal dated 7
    February 2002

..   held discussions with certain senior officers, directors and other
    representatives and advisers of P&O Princess;

..   examined publicly available business and financial information relating to
    P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean and Carnival;

..   reviewed certain internal financial statements and other financial and
    operating data concerning P&O Princess;

..   reviewed the financial terms of Carnival's DLC Proposal and the proposed
    Royal Caribbean DLC combination in relation to, among other things, current
    and historical market prices of P&O Princess, the financial condition and
    historical and projected earnings and other operating data of P&O Princess
    and the market capitalisation of P&O Princess;

..   analysed certain financial, stock market, and other publicly available
    information relating to the businesses of other companies whose operations
    Schroder Salomon Smith Barney considered relevant in evaluating those of
    P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean and Carnival;

..   considered, to the extent publicly available, the financial terms of
    certain other similar transactions recently effected which Schroder Salomon
    Smith Barney considered relevant in evaluating the proposed Royal Caribbean
    DLC combination and Carnival's DLC Proposal; and

..   conducted other analyses and examinations and considered other information
    and financial, economic and market criteria as Schroder Salomon Smith
    Barney deemed appropriate in providing its advice.

In rendering its advice, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney assumed and relied,
without independent verification, on the accuracy and completeness of all
financial and other information and data that it reviewed or considered. With
respect to financial forecasts and other information and data provided to or
otherwise reviewed by or discussed with Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, the
management of P&O Princess advised Schroder Salomon Smith Barney that they were
reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates
and judgments of the management of P&O Princess as to the future financial
performance of P&O Princess. Schroder Salomon Smith Barney did not make and was
not provided with an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or
liabilities, contingent or otherwise, of P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean or
Carnival, and did not make any physical inspection of the properties or assets
of P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean or Carnival. Schroder Salomon Smith Barney was
advised by representatives of P&O Princess, and Schroder Salomon Smith Barney
assumed, that the final terms of the draft Equalisation and Governance
Agreement and the SVE Special Voting Deed will not vary materially from those
set forth in the drafts reviewed by Schroder Salomon Smith Barney.

                                      2



Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's advice was necessarily based on information
available to it, and financial, stock market and other conditions and
circumstances existing and disclosed to Schroder Salomon Smith Barney as of the
dates that it provided its advice. Although Schroder Salomon Smith Barney
evaluated the DLC transaction, the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination and
Carnival's DLC Proposal from a financial point of view, Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney was not asked to and did not recommend the specific financial terms of
the DLC transaction, which were determined through negotiation between P&O
Princess and Carnival, and was not asked to and did not recommend the specific
financial terms of the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination, which were
determined through negotiation between P&O Princess and Royal Carribbean. In
addition, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney was not asked to and did not advise the
board of P&O Princess as to whether P&O Princess shareholders should accept the
Partial Share Offer. With respect to its advice to the P&O Princess board at a
meeting of the P&O Princess board held on 7 January 2003 in connection with the
P&O Princess board's recommendation of the DLC transaction, Schroder Salomon
Smith Barney's advice does not address the relative merits of the DLC
transaction as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist
for P&O Princess or the effect of any other transaction in which P&O Princess
might engage. With respect to its advice to the P&O Princess board at a meeting
of the P&O Princess board held on 24 September 2002, Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney only considered the relative merits from a financial point of view of
Carnival's DLC Proposal and the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination and
did not consider the merits of any other transaction or any alternative
business strategies that might exist for P&O Princess or the effect of any
other transaction in which P&O Princess might engage. No other instructions or
limitations were imposed by P&O Princess on Schroder Salomon Smith Barney with
respect to the investigations made or procedures followed by Schroder Salomon
Smith Barney in rendering its advice.

In preparing its advice, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney performed a variety of
financial and comparative analyses, including those described below. The
following discussion of these analyses is a summary description of the material
financial analyses underlying Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's advice. The
preparation of financial advice is a complex analytical process involving
various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of
financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular
circumstances and, therefore, is not readily susceptible to summary
description. Accordingly, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney believes that its
analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its
analyses and factors, without considering all analyses and factors, could
create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying its analyses
and advice.

In its analyses, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney considered industry performance,
general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters
existing as of the date of its advice, many of which are beyond the control of
P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean and Carnival. No company, transaction or business
used in those analyses as a comparison is identical to P&O Princess, Royal
Caribbean, Carnival, the DLC transaction, the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC
combination or Carnival's DLC Proposal and an evaluation of those analyses is
not entirely mathematical. Rather, the analyses involve complex considerations
and judgments concerning financial and operating characteristics and other
factors that could affect the acquisition, public trading or other values of
the companies, business segments or transactions analysed.

The estimates contained in Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's analyses and the
valuation ranges resulting from any particular analysis are not necessarily
indicative of actual values or predictive of future results or values, which
may be significantly more or less favourable than those suggested by its
analyses. In addition, analyses relating to the value of businesses or
securities do not necessarily purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices
at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Accordingly, Schroder
Salomon Smith Barney's analyses and estimates are subject to inherent
uncertainty.

Advice of 7 January 2003

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's advice and analyses were only one of various
factors considered by the P&O Princess board in its evaluation of the DLC
transaction and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of the P&O
Princess board or management with respect to the DLC transaction. In
particular, the P&O Princess board's reasons for recommending the DLC
transaction are detailed in Part C of this Appendix II.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses performed by
Schroder Salomon Smith Barney with respect to its advice to the P&O Princess
board at a meeting of the P&O Princess board held on 7 January 2003 in
connection with the P&O Princess board's recommendation of the DLC transaction.
Schroder Salomon Smith Barney:

..   analysed the implied value of a P&O Princess share under the terms of the
    DLC transaction. Based on the Carnival share price of $25.63 and an
    exchange rate of (Pounds)1.00:U.S.$1.5938 as at 2 January 2003, this
    analysis resulted in an implied per share value of 483 pence;

..   considered the median one week premia paid in 149 UK public recommended and
    14 UK public hostile offers between 1 January 2000 and 30 September 2002
    and compared these premia to the premia resulting from comparing the
    implied P&O Princess per share value of 483 pence under the terms of the
    DLC transaction to the P&O Princess share price over a range of periods
    prior to 20 November 2001. This analysis resulted in median premia in UK
    recommended and hostile offers of 36 per cent. and 56 per cent.
    respectively relative to the one-week prior price compared with implied
    premia of 52 per cent. for the 1 day prior price and 55 per cent. for the
    12 month prior price under the terms of the DLC transaction, as set out in
    the table below;



                                                P&O Princess share price prior to 20 November

..   using publicly available information, reviewed the value of P&O Princess
    implied by the revenue and EBITDA multiples of comparable leisure sector
    companies, plus a representative control premium. The comparable leisure
    sector companies chosen were Harrah's Entertainment Inc., MGM Mirage, Royal
    Caribbean Cruises Ltd., Six Flags Inc., The Walt Disney Company and Vail
    Resorts Inc. Although none of these companies is directly comparable to P&O
    Princess, the companies included were chosen because they are publicly
    traded companies with operations that, for purposes of analysis, may be
    considered similar to P&O Princess. This analysis indicated an implied per
    share reference range for P&O Princess of approximately 374 to 511 pence
    including a 35 per cent. control premium;

..   using publicly available information, reviewed the transaction values
    implied by the multiples paid in selected merger and acquisition
    transactions in the leisure sector from July 1997 to December 2002 in
    relation to the target companies' EBITDA and number of berths. The
    comparable transactions chosen were:

   - Carnival Corporation's acquisition of Costa Crociere SpA in August 2000
   - P&O Princess Cruises plc's acquisition of Seetours in April 2000
   - MGM Grand's acquisition of Mirage Resorts Inc. in May 2000
   - Star Cruises Ltd.'s acquisition of NCL Holdings ASA in March 2000
   - Park Place Entertainment Corp's acquisition of Caesars World in December
   1999
   - P&O Princess Cruises plc's acquisition of AIDA Cruises in November 1999
   - Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.'s acquisition of Celebrity Cruises in July
   1997

                                      4



   Although none of the target companies are directly comparable to P&O
   Princess, these transactions were chosen because they include target
   companies with operations that, for the purposes of analysis, may be
   considered similar to P&O Princess. This analysis indicated an implied per
   share reference range for P&O Princess of approximately 309 to 415 pence;

..   using publicly available information, reviewed the value of P&O Princess
    and the value of P&O Princess' proposed maximum of 26 per cent. share of
    the equity of the Combined Group using a five year discounted cash flow
    analysis. In performing these analyses, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney used
    a weighted average cost of capital, sometimes referred to as WACC, range of
    9.5 - 10.5 per cent. For the valuation of P&O Princess, Schroder Salomon
    Smith Barney used a terminal EBITDA multiple range of 8.0x - 10.0x, while
    for the valuation of 26 per cent. of the equity of a P&O Princess dual
    listed company combination with Carnival, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney
    used a terminal EBITDA multiple range of 9.0 - 11.0x. The WACC and EBITDA
    multiple ranges were chosen based on Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's
    knowledge of the cruise and leisure sector (including current trading
    ranges for companies in the cruise and leisure sector), experience and
    professional judgement. This analysis indicated an implied per share
    reference range of approximately 331 to 465 pence for P&O Princess on a
    standalone basis and 467 to 597 pence for P&O Princess' maximum of 26 per
    cent. share of the equity of the Combined Group;

..   considered the performance of P&O Princess' stock price over the period
    from 19 November 2001 to 2 January 2003 compared to the stock price
    performance of Royal Caribbean and Carnival and the performance of the FTSE
    100 and S&P 500 indexes. This analysis showed that P&O Princess' share
    price outperformed the share prices of Royal Caribbean and Carnival by 8
    per cent. and 19 per cent. respectively over this period and outperformed
    the FTSE 100 index and the S&P 500 index by 42 per cent. and 38 per cent.
    respectively over this period;

..   reviewed and considered other factors, including the historical trading
    valuations of P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean and Carnival, and the revenue,
    EBITDA and net income contribution of P&O Princess in the context of the
    Combined Group;

..   considered P&O Princess' historical implied ownership of the Combined Group
    given the relative public market trading performance of P&O Princess and
    Carnival. This analysis resulted in a P&O Princess average implied
    ownership of the Combined Group of 16.0 per cent. for the period 1 October
    2000 to 19 November 2001 (the day before the announcement of a DLC
    combination with Royal Caribbean), 21.5 per cent. for the post-announcement
    period 20 November 2001 to 2 January 2003 and 18.8 per cent. for the period
    1 October 2000 to 2 January 2003, compared to approximately 26 per cent. in
    the DLC transaction; and

..   analysed for various levels of acceptance of the Partial Share Offer by P&O
    Princess shareholders, the percentage of the Combined Group's equity share
    capital and free float and the likely equity market capitalisation of the
    P&O Princess side of the DLC structure assuming completion of the DLC
    transaction.

As set out in the table above, assuming the maximum 20 per cent. acceptance of
the Partial Share Offer by P&O Princess shareholders, this analysis resulted in
a P&O Princess percentage of the Combined Group's equity share capital and
freefloat of 20.9 per cent. and 31.6 per cent. respectively and an implied
equity market capitalisation of the P&O Princess side of the DLC of
(Pounds)2.416 billion as at 2 January 2003. This equity market capitalisation
would have ranked the P&O Princess side of the DLC at 71st out of the companies
contained in the FTSE 100 index as at 2 January 2003.

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney provided its advice at the meeting of the P&O
Princess board held on 7 January 2003 for the information of the Board of P&O
Princess in its evaluation of the DLC transaction, and the advice is not
intended to be and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as
to how such shareholder should vote on any matters relating to the proposed DLC
transaction or whether any shareholder should accept the Partial Share Offer.

Advice of 24 September 2002

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's advice and analyses were only one of various
factors considered by the P&O Princess board in its comparison of the proposed
Royal Caribbean DLC transaction and Carnival's DLC Proposal and should not be
viewed as determinative of the views of the P&O Princess board or management
with respect to the P&O Princess board's determination that Carnival's DLC
Proposal was more favourable from a financial point of view to P&O Princess'
shareholders than the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination and was
reasonably likely to be consummated in the event that all outstanding
regulatory clearances were to be obtained.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses performed by
Schroder Salomon Smith Barney in connection with its discussions with the P&O
Princess board at a meeting of the P&O Princess board held on 24 September 2002.

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney:

..   analysed the implied value of a P&O Princess share under the terms of
    Carnival's DLC Proposal compared with the implied value of a P&O Princess
    share under the terms of the Royal Caribbean DLC combination. Based on the
    Carnival share price of $25.18, the Royal Caribbean share price of $15.15
    and an exchange rate of (Pounds)1.00:U.S.$1.5541 each as at 20 September
    2002, this analysis resulted in an implied per share value of 487 pence for
    Carnival's DLC Proposal and an implied per share value of 281 pence for the
    proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination;

..   using publicly available information, reviewed the value of P&O Princess
    implied by the revenue and EBITDA multiples of comparable leisure sector
    companies, plus a representative control premium. The comparable leisure
    sector companies chosen were Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. and Carnival
    Corporation. This analysis indicated an implied per share reference range
    for P&O Princess of approximately 493 to 638 pence including a 35 per cent.
    control premium;

..   using publicly available information, reviewed the transaction values
    implied by the multiples paid in selected merger and acquisition
    transactions in the leisure sector from July 1997 to September 2002 in
    relation to the target companies' EBITDA and number of berths. The
    comparable transactions chosen were:

   - Carnival Corporation's acquisition of Costa Crociere SpA in August 2000
   - P&O Princess Cruises plc's acquisition of Seetours in April 2000
   - MGM Grand's acquisition of Mirage Resorts Inc. in May 2000
   - Star Cruises Ltd.'s acquisition of NCL Holdings ASA in March 2000
   - Park Place Entertainment Corp's acquisition of Caesars World in December
   1999
   - P&O Princess Cruises plc's acquisition of AIDA Cruises in November 1999
   - Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.'s acquisition of Celebrity Cruises in July
   1997

   Although none of the target companies are directly comparable to P&O
   Princess, these transactions were chosen because they include target
   companies with operations that, for the purposes of analysis, may be
   considered similar to P&O Princess. This analysis indicated an implied per
   share reference range for P&O Princess of approximately 408 to 515 pence;

..   reviewed the value of P&O Princess, the value of 26 per cent. of the equity
    of a P&O Princess dual listed company combination with Carnival and the
    value of P&O Princess' proposed 51 per cent. share of the equity of the
    proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination using a five year discounted cash
    flow analysis. In performing these analyses, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney

                                      6



   used a WACC, range of 9.5-10.5%. For the valuation of P&O Princess, Schroder
   Salomon Smith Barney used a terminal EBITDA multiple range of 8.0x - 10.0x,
   while for the valuation of 26 per cent. of the equity of a P&O Princess dual
   listed company combination with Carnival and the value of P&O Princess'
   proposed 51 per cent. share of the equity of the proposed Royal Caribbean
   DLC combination, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney used a terminal EBITDA
   multiple range of 9.0 - 11.0x. The WACC and EBITDA multiple ranges were
   chosen based on Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's knowledge of the cruise and
   leisure sector (including ranges for companies in the cruise and leisure
   sector), experience and professional judgement. This analysis indicated an
   implied per share reference range of approximately 408 to 553 pence for P&O
   Princess on a standalone basis, 519 to 658 pence for 26 per cent. of the
   equity of a P&O Princess dual listed company combination with Carnival and
   439 to 612 pence for P&O Princess' 51 per cent. share of the equity of the
   proposed Royal Caribbean DLC combination;

..   considered the performance of P&O Princess' stock price over the period
    from 19 November 2001 to 20 September 2002 compared to the stock price
    performance of Royal Caribbean and Carnival and the performance of the FTSE
    100 and S&P 500 indexes. This analysis showed that P&O Princess' share
    price outperformed the share prices of Royal Caribbean and Carnival by 25
    per cent. and 22 per cent. respectively over this period and outperformed
    the FTSE 100 index and the S&P 500 index by 47 per cent. and 46 per cent.
    respectively over this period; and

..   reviewed and considered other factors, including the historical trading
    valuations of P&O Princess, Royal Caribbean and Carnival.

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney concluded that, on the basis of the analysis it
had performed, it believed Carnival's DLC Proposal was more favourable from a
financial point of view to P&O Princess shareholders than the proposed Royal
Caribbean DLC combination.

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney provided its advice at the meeting of the P&O
Princess Board held on 24 September 2002 for the information of the Board of
P&O Princess in its evaluation of whether Carnival's DLC Proposal was more
favourable from a financial point of view than the proposed Royal Caribbean DLC
combination. This advice does not form part of any fairness opinion rendered by
Schroder Salomon Smith Barney, and the advice is not intended to be and does
not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as to how such shareholder
should vote on any matters relating to the DLC transaction or whether any
shareholder should accept the Partial Share Offer.

In the ordinary course of business, Schroder Salomon Smith Barney and its
affiliates may actively trade or hold the securities of P&O Princess and
Carnival for their own account or for the account of customers and,
accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities.
Schroder Salomon Smith Barney in the past has provided services to P&O Princess
and Carnival unrelated to the DLC transaction, for which services Schroder
Salomon Smith Barney has received compensation. In addition, Schroder Salomon
Smith Barney and its affiliates, including Citigroup Inc. and its affiliates,
may maintain relationships with P&O Princess, Carnival and their respective
affiliates.

Schroder Salomon Smith Barney is an internationally recognised investment
banking firm and was selected by P&O Princess based on its experience,
expertise and familiarity with P&O Princess and its business. Schroder Salomon
Smith Barney regularly engages in the valuation of businesses and their
securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated
underwritings, competitive bids, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted
securities, private placements and valuations for estate, corporate and other
purposes.

Pursuant to the terms of an engagement letter, dated 18 November 2001, as
supplemented by a letter dated 30 July 2002, between Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney and P&O Princess, P&O Princess has agreed to pay Schroder Salomon Smith
Barney a transaction fee of $20 million payable upon

                                      7



completion of the DLC transaction or a fee of $10 million if the DLC
transaction is abandoned or terminated payable upon announcement of such
abandonment or termination. In addition, P&O Princess may, at its discretion,
pay to Schroder Salomon Smith Barney an additional amount up to $5 million to
reflect the performance by Schroder Salomon Smith Barney in carrying out the
execution of the DLC transaction. In addition, P&O Princess has agreed to
reimburse Schroder Salomon Smith Barney for reasonable travel and other
expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of its legal counsel, and to
indemnify Schroder Salomon Smith Barney and related parties against certain
liabilities arising out of Schroder Salomon Smith Barney's engagement.

                    INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 20.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Carnival's second amended and restated articles of incorporation and by-laws
provide, subject to the requirements set forth therein, that with respect to
any person who was or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, Carnival shall indemnify such person by reason
of the fact that he is or was one of Carnival's directors or an officer, and
may indemnify such person by reason of the fact that he is or was one of
Carnival's employees or agents or is or was serving at Carnival's request as a
director, officer, employee or agent in another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, in either case against expenses (including
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Carnival has entered into indemnity agreements with Shari Arison, Maks L.
Birnbach, Richard G. Capen, Jr., Arnold W. Donald, James M. Dubin, Modesto
Maidique, Stuart Subotnick, Sherwood M. Weiser, Meshulam Zonis and Uzi Zucker
providing essentially the same indemnities as are described in Carnival's
second amended and restated articles of incorporation.

Article 161 of P&O Princess' articles of association provides:

"Subject to the provisions of the Companies Acts but without prejudice to any
indemnity to which a director may otherwise be entitled, every director or
other officer of the Company shall be indemnified out of the assets of the
Company against any liability incurred by him in defending any proceedings,
whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in his favour (or the
proceedings are otherwise disposed of without any finding or admission of any
material breach of duty on his part) or in which he is acquitted or in
connection with any application in which relief is granted to him by the court
from liability for negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust in
relation to the affairs of the Company."

Under the UK Companies Act 1985, a UK company is not permitted to indemnify a
director or officer of the company against any liability in respect of any
negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which he may be
guilty in relation to the company. UK companies, however, may:

..  purchase and maintain liability insurance for officers and directors; and

..  indemnify officers and directors against any liability incurred by him
   either in defending any proceedings in which judgment is given in his favour
   or he is acquitted, or in connection with the court granting him relief from
   liability in the case of honest and reasonable conduct.

ITEM 22.  UNDERTAKINGS.

The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake:

      (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
   post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement;

          (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
       Securities Act of 1933;

          (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
       the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
       post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
       aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
       in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
       increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
       dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
       registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated
       maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed
       with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
       changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 per cent. change
       in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
       Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and

          (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
       distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
       any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

   provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
   Registration Statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the
   information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
   paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
   Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
   Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
   Registration Statement.

      (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
   Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
   to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
   therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
   be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                     II-2



      (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
   any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
   termination of the offering.

      (4) To file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to
   include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the
   start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial
   statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act
   need not be furnished, provided, that the Registrant includes in the
   prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements
   required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary
   to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as
   current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the
   foregoing, with respect to Registration Statements on Form F-3, a
   post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements
   and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Rule 3-19 of this
   chapter if such financial statements and information are contained in
   periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant
   pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
   1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3.

      (5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
   Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to
   Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
   applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant
   to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
   incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to
   be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein,
   and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
   initial bona fide offering thereof.

      (6) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information
   concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein,
   that was not the subject of and included in the Registration Statement when
   it became effective.

      (7) That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered
   hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this Registration
   Statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within
   the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering
   prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable
   registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed
   underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items
   of the applicable form.

      (8) That every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (8)
   immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of
   Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of
   securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to
   the Registration Statement and will not be used until such amendment is
   effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
   Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
   to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
   therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
   be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

The undersigned Registrant, Carnival Corporation, hereby undertakes to respond
to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the
prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one
business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents
by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information
contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the
Registration Statement through the date of responding to the request.

The undersigned Registrant, P&O Princess Cruises plc, hereby undertakes: (i) to
respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the
prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form, within one
business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents
by first class mail or other equally prompt means; and (ii) to arrange or
provide for a facility in the U.S. for the purpose of responding to such
requests. The undertaking in subparagraph (i) above includes information
contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the
Registration Statement through the date of responding to the request.

                                     II-3



Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrants
have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrants of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the Registrants will, unless in the opinion of
their counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
