Letter to Shareholders from the Chair
[MISSING IMAGE: ph_mickyarison-4clr.jpg]
MICKY ARISON
Chair of the Boards
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
During 2021, we were focused on resuming operations as quickly as practical in a way that served the best interests of public health, while at the same time demonstrating prudent stewardship of capital. In addition, we believe that we have positioned ourselves well on the path to profitability and established effective protocols for COVID-19. We achieved all of this while reinforcing our commitment to compliance, environmental protection and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the people in the communities we touch and serve, and our shipboard and shoreside employees.
In 2021, we achieved key milestones related to our return to service including:

Ending the year with 50 ships in guest cruise operations compared to one ship in 2020

Returning over 65,000 crew members to our ships

Carrying over 1.2 million guests indicating fundamental strength in demand for cruise vacations

Delivering an exceptional guest experience with historically high net promoter scores
We ended the year with $9.4 billion of liquidity including cash, short-term investments and borrowings available under our revolving credit facility, and $3.5 billion of customer deposits, an increase of  $1.3 billion from 2020. To date, through our debt management efforts, we refinanced over $9 billion, reducing our future annual interest by approximately $400 million per year and extending maturities, optimizing our debt maturity profile.
As of January 13, 2022, eight of our nine cruise brands, representing 67% of our capacity, had resumed guest cruise operations. We expect to have our full fleet back in operation for our summer season where we historically generate the largest share of our operating income.
We achieved important milestones during our return to service and broadened our commitment to environmental, social and governance goals with the introduction of our 2030 sustainability goals and 2050 aspirations. We also achieved many operational milestones, including reopening our eight owned and operated private destinations and port facilities which have been visited by over half of our guests since the restart and welcoming seven new more efficient ships across our brands.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Letter to Shareholders from the Chair
   
Our decision to accelerate the exit of 19 ships as part of our fleet optimization strategy resulted in a more efficient fleet overall and lowered our planned capacity growth to approximately 2.5% compounded annually from 2019 through 2025, down from 4.5% annually pre-COVID-19. We achieved a unit cost benefit from the removal of these less efficient ships from our fleet which will grow from the delivery of the larger and more efficient ships.
Upon returning to full operations, nearly 15% of our capacity will consist of these recently delivered, larger and more efficient ships which we believe will expedite our return to profitability and improve our return on invested capital. In addition, this roster of new ships is expected to drive additional enthusiasm around our restart plans.
As of January 13, 2022, we are operating the only six cruise ships in the world currently powered by liquefied natural gas (“LNG”), which are 20% more carbon efficient. Upon returning to full cruise operations, our LNG efforts, our fleet optimization strategy and other innovative efforts to drive energy efficiency are forecasted to deliver a 10% reduction in unit fuel consumption on an annualized basis compared to 2019, a significant achievement on our path to decarbonization.
Furthermore, we are focused on advancing our six critical sustainability focus areas—​climate action; circular economy; good health and well-being; sustainable tourism; biodiversity and conservation; and diversity, equity and inclusion. Among these priorities, we are committed to continuing our reduction of carbon emissions and aspire to achieve net carbon-neutral ship operations by 2050, while minimizing the use of carbon offsets. While there is currently no clear path to zero carbon emissions in our industry, we are working to be part of the solution. To achieve the aspiration of net zero carbon emissions, we are partnering with key organizations to help identify and scale new technologies. We have and expect to continue to demonstrate leadership in executing carbon reduction strategies. We believe our scale will support our effort to lead the industry in climate action. Our carbon emissions reduction efforts include improvements in energy efficiency, integrating alternative fuels and investing in new technologies such as batteries and fuel cells.
Throughout the pause and the gradual resumption of guest cruise operations, we have been proactively managing to resume guest cruise operations as an even stronger and more efficient operating company to maximize cash generation and to deliver strong returns on invested capital. Once we return to full guest operations, our cash flow will be the primary driver to our return to an investment grade credit rating over time, creating greater shareholder value.
Sincerely,
[MISSING IMAGE: sg_mickyarison-bw.jpg]

LIVE VIDEO BROADCAST
Carnival House, 100 Harbour Parade, Southampton SO15 1ST, United Kingdom, 1:30 p.m. (BST)
Shareholders planning to attend the live video broadcast in Southampton must submit a proxy in order to vote as they will not be able to vote in person from Southampton. Shareholders attending the live video broadcast in Southampton will be able to submit questions live to the Directors in Florida, but will not be treated as, or considered to be, “in attendance” at the Annual Meetings.
Details regarding the matters to be voted on are contained in the attached Notices of Annual Meetings of Shareholders and Proxy Statement. Because of the dual listed company arrangement, all voting will take place on a poll (or ballot).
As the current situation with COVID-19 evolves, we continue to closely monitor the public health advisors and governmental regulations and guidelines on holding large public events and gatherings, as well as travel bans. Based on this advice at the time of writing, the Boards have decided to keep in place for this year some of the temporary changes to the format of the Annual Meetings of Shareholders that were instituted last year. Please read the section “Safety and Security Measures” below for further details on how we plan to conduct the meetings to prioritize the safety and security of our employees, shareholders and other stakeholders.
The Boards will continue to monitor the situation closely and may need to make further adjustments to the “Safety and Security Measures,” including any additional restrictions or requirements for shareholders to attend. Shareholders planning to
attend the meeting should therefore check the “Investor Relations” section of our website at www.carnivalcorp.com and www.carnivalplc.com for any updates, which will be posted at least one week prior to the Annual Meetings of Shareholders.
While we welcome the opportunity to engage with our shareholders in person at the Annual Shareholders Meetings, we strongly encourage shareholders to follow public health advice before deciding whether to attend the meeting or not.
Your vote is important. We encourage you to vote as soon as possible to ensure your vote is recorded promptly, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meetings of Shareholders.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickboxko.gif]
The Boards of Directors recommend that you vote in favor of Proposals 1 through 20 and consider their approval to be in the best interests of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc and their shareholders.
We are furnishing the proxy materials to shareholders on or about February 15, 2022

Notice of 2022 Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc Shareholders​
VOTING IN PERSON
If you come to the Annual General Meeting, please bring the attendance card (attached to the enclosed proxy form) with you. This will mean you can register more quickly.
In order to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting, a corporate shareholder may appoint one or more individuals to act as its representative. The appointment must comply with the requirements of Section 323 of the Companies Act. Each representative should bring evidence of their appointment, including any authority under which it is signed, to
the meeting. If you are a corporation and are considering appointing a corporate representative to represent you and vote your shareholding in Carnival plc at the Annual General Meeting, you are strongly encouraged to pre-register your corporate representative to make registration on the day of the meeting more efficient. In order to pre-register, please email your Letter of Representation to Carnival plc’s registrars, Equiniti Limited, at proxyvotes@equiniti.com.
VOTING BY PROXY
A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote in his or her stead. A proxy need not be a shareholder of Carnival plc. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder. To appoint more than one proxy, please follow the notes contained in the proxy form. A person who is nominated to enjoy information rights in accordance with Section 146 of the Companies Act, but who is not a shareholder, is not entitled to appoint a proxy.
If you are a person nominated to enjoy information rights in accordance with Section 146 of the Companies Act you may have a right under an agreement between you and the member by whom you were nominated to be appointed, or to have someone else appointed, as a proxy for the meeting. If you have no such right, or you have such a right but do not wish to exercise it, you may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the member as to the exercise of voting rights.
To be effective, a duly completed proxy form and the authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy of such authority, must be deposited (whether delivered personally or by post) at the offices of Carnival plc’s registrars as soon as possible and in any event no later than 1:30 p.m. (BST) on April 6, 2022.

Alternatively, a proxy vote may be submitted via the Internet in accordance with the instructions set out on the proxy form.
In the case of joint registered holders, the signature of one holder on a proxy card will be accepted and the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders. For this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which names stand on the register of shareholders of Carnival plc in respect of the relevant joint holding.
In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a “CREST Proxy Instruction”) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear’s specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual, which can be viewed at www.euroclear.com. The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer’s agent (ID RA19) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments specified in the Notice of Annual General Meeting. For this purpose, the time of
CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT | xi

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Notice of 2022 Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc Shareholders
receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer’s agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.
CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned
to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his or her CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings. Carnival plc may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.
VOTING ELECTRONICALLY
Shareholders are entitled to vote online at www.sharevote.co.uk. Shareholders voting electronically should vote as soon as possible, and in any event no later than 1:30 p.m. (BST) on April 6, 2022.
SHAREHOLDERS WHO ARE ENTITLED TO ATTEND OR VOTE
Carnival plc, pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, specifies that only those shareholders registered in the register of members of Carnival plc at 6:30 p.m. (BST) on April 6, 2021 shall be entitled to attend or vote at the
meeting in respect of the number of shares registered in their name at that time. Changes to the entries on the register of members after 6:30 p.m. (BST) on April 6, 2021 shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the meeting.
Asking Questions at the Meeting
Any shareholder attending the meeting has the right to ask questions. Carnival plc must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the meeting, but no such answer need be given if:

to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information;

the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or

it is undesirable in the interests of Carnival plc or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered.
Documents Available for Inspection
Copies of all service agreements (including letters of appointment) between each Director and Carnival plc will be available for inspection during normal business hours on any weekday (public holidays
excluded) at the registered office of Carnival plc from the date of this notice until and including the date of the meeting and at the place of the meeting for at least 15 minutes prior to and during the meeting.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
We are committed to operating a safe and reliable fleet and to protect the environment and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the people in the communities we touch and our shipboard and shoreside employees. We are dedicated to fully complying with, or exceeding, all applicable legal and statutory requirements. We are also focused on enhancing our sustainable business model while reinforcing our commitment to and investment in sustainability solutions through our six critical sustainability focus areas:

climate action;

circular economy;

sustainable tourism;

good health and well-being;

diversity, equity and inclusion; and

biodiversity and conservation.
In order to continue supporting our sustainability strategy across our brands and business partners, we have established new goals for 2030 and aspirations for 2050 which incorporate the six key focus areas and align with elements of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals and build on the momentum of our successful achievement of our 2020 sustainability goals.
Among these priorities, we are committed to continuing to reduce carbon emissions and have aspirations to achieve net carbon-neutral ship operations by 2050, well ahead of current International Maritime Organization’s (“IMO”) target, while minimizing the use of carbon offsets. Our carbon emissions reduction efforts include improvements in energy efficiency, integrating alternative fuels and investing in new technologies such as batteries and fuel cells.
As part of our plan for carbon footprint reduction, we lead the cruise industry’s use of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) powered cruise ships. As of January 13, 2022, we are operating the only six large cruise ships in the world currently powered by LNG. Upon returning to full cruise operations, our LNG efforts combined with other innovative efforts to drive energy efficiency are forecasted to deliver a 10% reduction in unit fuel consumption on an annualized basis compared to 2019, a significant achievement on our path to decarbonization. LNG vessels generate up to 20% less carbon emissions than traditionally powered ships, while almost eliminating sulfur oxides, reducing nitrogen oxides by 85% and particulate matter by 95%-100%.
While fossil fuels are currently the only viable solution for our industry, we are closely monitoring technology developments and partnering with key organizations on research and development to support our carbon emission reduction goals, such as:

partnering to evaluate and pilot maritime scale battery technology and methanol powered fuel cells on our ships; and

working with Classification Societies and other stake holders to assess hydrogen, methanol, eLNG and biofuels as future low carbon fuel options for cruise ships.
We also pioneered the use of Advanced Air Quality Systems on board our ships to aid in the reduction of sulfur emissions and are promoting the use of shore power, enabling ships to use shoreside electric power where available while in port.

PROMOTING DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
We believe that diversity and inclusion issues, such as the attraction, retention, development and promotion of women and people of color, are not only important topics in corporations and boardrooms world-wide, they are issues critically important to sustaining the success of our business. For years, we have partnered with organizations focused on improving the diversity and inclusiveness of workplaces and by extension, society in general. We strive to achieve greater performance through capturing the power of employee diversity across all elements such as race, ethnicity, age, gender and sexual orientation and identification.
Accordingly, Arnold W. Donald, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Climate Officer, has committed to Catalyst’s “Catalyst CEO Champions for Change” initiative to support the advancement of women’s leadership and diversity in the workplace.
Mr. Donald is also signatory to the Executive Leadership Council’s “CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion” initiative to support and encourage diversity in the workplace.
It is the policy of Carnival Corporation & plc that disabled persons should receive full and fair consideration for all job vacancies and promotions for which they are qualified applicants. It is the policy of Carnival Corporation & plc to seek to retain employees who become disabled while in their service whenever possible and to provide appropriate training and accommodations for disabled persons.
Training and career development are provided and encouraged for all employees, including disabled persons.

Whether it is providing job training to the homeless, preserving and protecting the environment, furthering medical research or investing in our future through education and mentoring, the reach of Carnival Foundation is all-encompassing.
During times of crisis, Carnival Foundation works closely with national and international relief organizations, coordinating corporate and employee donations for emergencies, such as hurricanes in the U.S. and in the Caribbean.

SHAREHOLDER ENGAGEMENT AND SAY-ON-PAY ADVISORY VOTE

Carnival Corporation & plc has a long-standing shareholder outreach program and routinely interacts with shareholders on a number of matters, including executive compensation. The Compensation Committees consider all feedback received about executive compensation.

In April 2021, shareholders approved our “say-on-pay” proposal with 90.1% of the votes cast in favor of the compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers. During the past year, we continued to engage with shareholders and seek feedback on our compensation program and incorporate the results of that feedback in our compensation decisions.

The Compensation Committees have and will continue to consider results from the annual shareholder advisory votes, including the next vote in April 2022, as well as other shareholder input, when reviewing executive compensation programs and policies.

Governance and Board Matters

Governance
We are committed to governance policies and practices so that shareholder and other stakeholder interests are represented in a thoughtful and independent manner. Sound principles of corporate governance are critical to obtaining and retaining the trust of investors. They are also vital in securing respect from other key stakeholders and interested parties, including our workforce, guests and suppliers, the communities in which we conduct business, government officials and the public-at-large.
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc operate under a dual listed company (“DLC”) arrangement with primary stock listings in the United States (“U.S.”) and the United Kingdom (“UK”). Accordingly, we implemented a single corporate governance framework consistent, to the extent possible, with the governance practices and requirements of both countries. While there are customs or practices that differ between the two countries, we believe our corporate governance framework effectively addresses the corporate governance requirements of both the U.S. and the UK.
Our corporate governance principles are set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the
charters of our Board Committees. The actions described in these documents, which the Boards have reviewed and approved, implement applicable requirements, including the New York Stock Exchange listing requirements and, to the extent practicable, the UK Corporate Governance Code published by the UK Financial Reporting Council in July 2018 (the “UK Corporate Governance Code”), as well our own vision of good governance.
We will continue to monitor governance developments in the U.S. and the UK to ensure a vigorous and effective corporate governance framework of the highest international standards.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines, copies of the charters of our Board Committees and our organizational documents are available under the “Governance” section of our website at www.carnivalcorp.com and www.carnivalplc.com.
The Boards are elected by the shareholders to exercise business judgment to act in what they reasonably believe to be in the best interests of Carnival Corporation & plc and its shareholders. The Boards select and oversee the members of senior management, who are charged by the Boards with conducting the business of the company.

Corporate Governance and Board Matters
Nominations of Directors
Nominations of Directors
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc are two separate legal entities and, therefore, each has a separate Board of Directors, each of which in turn has its own Nominating & Governance Committee. As the DLC arrangement requires that there be identical Boards of Directors, the Nominating & Governance Committees make one set of determinations in relation to both companies.
The Nominating & Governance Committees actively seek individuals qualified to become Board members and recommend to the Boards the nominees to stand for election as Directors at the Annual Meetings of Shareholders or, if applicable, at a Special Meeting of Shareholders.
When nominating candidates for the Boards of Directors, including incumbent Directors eligible for re-nomination, regardless of the source of the nomination, the Nominating & Governance Committees will consider, in accordance with their charter, such factors as they deem appropriate, including, but not limited to:

the candidate’s judgment;

the candidate’s skill;

contributions to the Boards of Directors (with respect to incumbent Directors);

diversity considerations;

the candidate’s experience with business and other organizations of comparable size;

the interplay of the candidate’s experience with the experience of other members of the Boards; and

the extent to which the candidate would be a desirable addition to the Boards and any Committees of the Boards.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines dictate that diversity should be considered by the Nominating & Governance Committees in the director identification and nomination process. This means that the Nominating & Governance Committees seek nominees who bring a variety of business backgrounds, experiences and perspectives to the Boards. The Boards believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of the Directors, considered as a group, should provide a broad diversity of experience, professions, skills, geographic representations, knowledge and abilities, as well as race, ethnicity, age, gender and sexual orientation and identification, that will allow the Boards to fulfill their responsibilities and the Nominating & Governance Committees assess the effectiveness of this approach as part of the annual evaluations of our Boards of Directors.
BOARD REFRESHMENT
We have added four new directors to our Boards since 2016, including two women.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Corporate Governance and Board Matters
Nominations of Directors
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, 25% of the members of the Boards are women (being three of 12 members). We had met our prior goal to achieve 33% of the members of the Boards being women, until a woman member stepped down in January 2020 just prior to the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our guest cruise operations. The Nominating & Governance Committees are in the process of engaging a search firm to assist them in identifying women Board candidates so that we can again achieve the goal of at least 33% of the Boards being women.
The Boards currently meet the Parker Review recommendation of having at least one ethnic minority director by 2021.
The Nominating & Governance Committees also use their best efforts to ensure that the composition of the Boards adheres to the independence requirements applicable to companies listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. The Nominating & Governance Committees and the Boards utilize the same criteria for evaluating candidates regardless of the source of the referral. Other than the foregoing, there are no stated minimum criteria for Director nominees.
The Nominating & Governance Committees identify nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Boards willing to continue in service. As part of director succession planning, current members of the Boards with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue in service are considered for re-nomination, balancing the value of continuity of service by existing members of the Boards with that of obtaining a new perspective. If any member of the Boards does not wish to continue in service or if the Nominating & Governance Committees or the Boards decide not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Nominating & Governance Committees identify the desired skills and experience of a new nominee in light of the criteria above. Current members of the Nominating & Governance Committees and the Boards are polled for suggestions as to individuals meeting the criteria of the Nominating & Governance Committees. The Nominating & Governance Committees may consider candidates proposed by management but are not required to do so. The Nominating & Governance Committees may engage a third-party search firm to identify and attract potential nominees.

2022 Nominees for Re-Election to the Boards
2022 Nominees for Re-Election to the Boards
The DLC arrangement requires the Boards of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc to be identical. Shareholders are required to approve the election or re-election of Directors to each Board. There are 12 nominees for re-election to each Board of Directors. Each nominee currently serves as a Director of both companies. All nominees for Director are to be re-elected to serve until the next Annual Meetings of Shareholders and until their successors are elected.
All of the nominees have indicated that they will be willing and able to serve as Directors.
With respect to each Board nominee set forth below, the information presented includes such person’s age, the year in which such person first became a Director, any other position held with Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, such person’s principal occupations during at least the past five years, any directorships held by such nominee in public or certain
other companies over the past five years and the nominee’s qualifications, including particular areas of expertise, to serve as a Director.
The Nominating & Governance Committees conducted performance evaluations of the members of our Boards of Directors serving during fiscal 2021 and reported the results to the Boards. The Boards determined that each nominee was an effective and committed member of the Boards and the Board Committees on which each serves. In addition, in 2019, the Nominating & Governance Committees engaged a third-party governance expert to perform an assessment of the effectiveness of the Boards. The third-party governance expert interviewed each Director and members of senior management who interact substantially with the Boards, reviewed the results of the assessment with the Senior Independent Director, and then organized and summarized the assessment for discussion with the full Boards.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickboxko.gif]
Accordingly, the Boards of Directors unanimously recommend a vote FOR the
re-election of each of the following Director nominees.

Board and Committee Governance
BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE
[MISSING IMAGE: tm224633d1-pht_leaders4clr.jpg]
Our Boards of Directors are led by our executive Chair, Mr. Arison. The Chief Executive Officer position is currently separate from the Chair. The Boards maintain the flexibility to determine whether the roles of Chair and Chief Executive Officer should be combined or separated, based on what they believe is in the best interests of Carnival Corporation & plc at a given point in time. We believe that the separation of the Chair and Chief Executive Officer positions is appropriate corporate governance for us at this time, and that having Mr. Arison as our executive Chair enables Carnival Corporation & plc and the Boards to continue to benefit from Mr. Arison’s skills and expertise, including his extensive knowledge of our business.
Our Non-Executive Directors, all of whom are independent, meet privately in executive session at
least quarterly. The Presiding Director leads those meetings and also acts as the Senior Independent Director under the UK Corporate Governance Code. In addition, the Presiding Director serves as the principal liaison to the Non-Executive Directors, reviews and approves meeting agendas for the Boards and reviews meeting schedules. Our Non-Executive Directors, acting in executive session, elected Randall J. Weisenburger as the Presiding Director and Senior Independent Director.
The structure of our Boards facilitates the continued strong communication and coordination between management and the Boards and enables the Boards to fulfill their risk oversight responsibilities, as further described below.
BOARD COMMITTEES
The Boards delegate various responsibilities and authority to different Board Committees. The Board Committees regularly report on their activities and actions to the full Boards. The Board of Directors of each of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc has established standing Board Committees, which are each comprised of the same Directors for each company, as follows:

BOARD AND COMMITTEE INDEPENDENCE
Under New York Stock Exchange and UK Corporate Governance Code standards of independence for directors, the Boards must determine that a Director does not have any material relationship with Carnival Corporation & plc or its subsidiaries (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with Carnival Corporation & plc) and meets certain bright-line tests. Following an assessment of the Directors’ independence, including a review of their independence questionnaires, the Boards of Directors have determined that each of the following is an “independent” director in accordance with the New York Stock Exchange and the UK Corporate Governance Code standards of independence for directors and that all members of the Audit Committees and Compensation Committees meet the heightened independence criteria applicable to Directors serving on those Committees under SEC rules and New York Stock Exchange listing standards and the UK Corporate Governance Code:

RISK OVERSIGHT
Our Boards use the following Committees to assist in their risk oversight responsibility as follows:
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_auditepn.gif] AUDIT COMMITTEES
Our Audit Committees are responsible for oversight of our financial, operational and compliance controls (other than with respect to HESS-related legal and regulatory requirements) and including information systems controls and security and oversee management’s processes to identify principal and emerging risks, including those related to information technology operations, cybersecurity and data privacy. They monitor our principal and emerging financial risks and non-HESS operational and compliance risks identified by the risk assessment processes and report their findings to the Boards of Directors. They are also responsible for overseeing the adequacy of our system of internal control policies and procedures for the identification, assessment and reporting of risk, including identifying new risks as they arise. They review and make recommendations arising from management reports on the effectiveness of internal controls and risk management systems. In addition, the Audit Committees review audit coverage, the audit plan for the upcoming year and results of any testing carried out by Carnival Corporation & plc’s internal audit department called Risk Advisory & Assurance Services (“RAAS”), and its external auditors. The Audit Committees also review any concerns about improprieties in our financial reporting and financial controls or other matters, which employees may confidentially raise.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_compenspn.gif] COMPENSATION COMMITTEES
Our Compensation Committees are responsible for oversight of risk associated with our executive compensation structure, policies and programs.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_complianpn.jpg] COMPLIANCE COMMITTEES
Our Compliance Committees are responsible for providing oversight of our ethics and compliance function and ethics and compliance risks. Specifically, they receive regular reports from the Chief Ethics
and Compliance Officer regarding the implementation of the ethics and compliance strategic plan, the effectiveness of the overall ethics and compliance function as well as the adequacy of staffing and resources. They monitor the implementation of the environmental compliance plan. In addition, they are responsible for taking steps, in coordination with the Audit and HESS Committees, to ensure that all allegations of material misconduct by management, employees or agents are reported and receive appropriate attention and remediation. They also make recommendations to the Boards of Directors for the framework, structure and design of the Boards of Directors’ permanent, steady-state oversight of Carnival Corporation & plc’s ethics and compliance function and perform any other duties as requested by the Boards of Directors.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_hesspn.gif] HESS COMMITTEES

Corporate Governance and Board Matters
Board and Committee Governance
The Chairs of each of these Committees present on their Committees’ area of risk oversight to the full Boards for review.
Discussions between management and the Boards regarding the Carnival Corporation & plc strategic plan, consolidated business results, capital structure and other business-related activities include a discussion of the risks associated with the particular item under consideration. In response to the significant operational and financial impact of COVID-19 on our organization, the Boards continued to have bi-weekly meetings until mid-2021 and then continued with monthly meetings. The Boards received regular reports from management regarding:

our liquidity;

status of the gradual return to service, including returning ships to guest cruise operations, returning crew members to our ships as well as maintaining the enhanced health and safety protocols;

compliance status and transparency;

our environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) performance; and

other critical matters.
The Boards believe that the structure and assigned responsibilities provides the appropriate focus, oversight and communication of principal risks faced by our companies.
COMPENSATION RISK ASSESSMENT
Carnival Corporation & plc’s management, in conjunction with the Compensation Committees’ independent compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (“FW Cook”), conducted a thorough review of our compensation programs, including those programs in which our Named Executive Officers participate, to determine if aspects of those programs contribute to excessive risk-taking. Based on the findings from this review and the annual reassessment, the Compensation Committees continue to believe that our compensation policies and practices do not encourage excessive risk-taking and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Carnival Corporation & plc.
To reach this conclusion, key elements of our compensation programs were assessed to determine if they exhibited excessive risk. These elements included:

pay mix (cash vs. equity) and pay structure (short vs. long-term focus);

performance metrics;

performance goals and ranges;

the degree of leverage;

incentive maximums;

payment timing;

incentive adjustments;

use of discretion; and

stock ownership requirements.
Our assessment reinforced the Compensation Committees’ belief that our compensation programs are not contributing to excessive risk-taking, but instead contain many features and elements that help to mitigate risk.
For example:
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
PAY STRUCTURE. Our compensation programs for our Named Executive Officers, excluding the Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer, emphasize both short- and long-term performance through our annual bonus program (delivered in cash) and through the delivery of long-term incentives (equity) a balanced approach (approximately 45% through base salary and bonus and 55% in long-term equity grants). The mix of our pay program is intended to motivate management to consider the impact of decisions on shareholders in the short, intermediate and long-term.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
CHIEF ETHICS & COMPLIANCE OFFICER PAY. Our compensation program for the Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer, who is also a Named Executive Officer, is designed to support the independent judgement and execution of duties on our behalf without creating a conflict of interest. This compensation program also emphasizes both short- and long-term performance through an annual bonus measuring individual performance measures consistent with this role’s responsibility and time-vested long-term equity incentives.

LONG-TERM SHARE INCENTIVE GRANTS. The January 2021 long-term share incentive grants were made in the form of time-based restricted stock units to strengthen alignment with shareholder interests, to promote retention and leadership stability in a highly uncertain and volatile operating environment due to COVID-19.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT. For corporate and operating unit officers, the performance measurement used when determining their annual bonus is based on the performance of Carnival Corporation & plc with reference to qualitative metrics, including cash management, return to service, compliance and culture and ESG.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
STOCK OWNERSHIP POLICY. All senior executives who are designated as reporting officers under Section 16 of the Exchange Act are subject to a stock ownership policy which specifies target ownership levels of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc shares in terms of the value of the equity holdings as a multiple of each officer’s base salary.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
CLAWBACK POLICY. The Carnival plc 2014 Employee Share Plan (which was approved by shareholders in 2014), the Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan (which was approved by shareholders in 2020) and the incentive plan used to determine annual bonuses contain clawback provisions, authorize us to recover incentive-based compensation granted under those plans in the event Carnival Corporation & plc is required to restate their financial statements due to fraud or misconduct.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE GUIDELINES
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines address various governance issues and principles, including:

Director qualifications and responsibilities;

access to management personnel;

Director compensation;

Director orientation and continuing education; and

annual performance evaluations of the Boards, their Committees and individual Directors.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are posted on our website at www.carnivalcorp.com and www.carnivalplc.com.
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER SUCCESSION PLANNING
Our Boards believe that planning for the succession of our Chief Executive Officer is an important function. Our multi-brand structure enhances our succession planning process. At the corporate level, a highly-skilled management team oversees a collection of cruise brands. At both the corporate and brand levels, we continually strive to foster the professional development of senior management. As a result, Carnival Corporation & plc has developed a very experienced and strong group of leaders, with their performance subject to ongoing monitoring and evaluation, as potential successors to all of our senior executive positions, including our Chief Executive Officer.
The Boards and the Nominating & Governance Committees are responsible for succession planning, including emergency succession planning. The
independent Non-Executive Directors meet with the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer (both together and individually) at least quarterly to plan for the succession of the Chief Executive Officer, including plans in the event of an emergency. During those sessions, each of the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer discusses his recommendations of potential successors, along with an evaluation and review of any development plans for such individuals. As provided in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Nominating & Governance Committees will, when appropriate, make recommendations to the Boards with respect to potential successors to the Chief Executive Officer. All members of the Boards will work with the Nominating & Governance Committees to see that qualified candidates are available and that development plans are being utilized to strengthen

the skills and qualifications of the candidates. When assessing the qualifications of potential successors to the Chief Executive Officer, the Boards and the
Nominating & Governance Committees will take into account our business strategy as well as any other criteria they believe are relevant.
PROCEDURES REGARDING DIRECTOR CANDIDATES RECOMMENDED BY SHAREHOLDERS
The Nominating & Governance Committees will consider shareholder recommendations of qualified Director nominees when such recommendations are submitted in accordance with the procedures below. In order to recommend a candidate for consideration by the Nominating & Governance Committees for election at the 2023 Annual Meetings of Shareholders, a shareholder must provide the same information as is required for shareholders to submit Director nominations under the advance notice provision set forth in Carnival Corporation’s By-laws. Specifically, any such recommendation must include, in addition to any other informational requirements specifically set forth in Carnival Corporation’s and Carnival plc’s governing documents:

the name and address of the candidate;

a brief biographical description, including his or her occupation and service on Boards of Directors of any public company or registered investment company for at least the last five years;

a statement of the particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of the candidate,
taking into account the qualification requirements set forth above; and

the candidate’s signed consent to serve as a Director if elected and to be named in the Proxy Statement.
Once we receive the recommendation, we may deliver to the candidate a questionnaire that requests additional information about the candidate’s independence, qualifications and other matters that would assist the Nominating & Governance Committees in evaluating the candidate, as well as certain information that must be disclosed about the candidate in our Proxy Statement or other regulatory filings, if nominated. Candidates must complete and return the questionnaire within the time frame provided to be considered for nomination by the Nominating & Governance Committees at the Annual Meetings of Shareholders. For our 2023 Annual Meetings of Shareholders, the Nominating & Governance Committees will consider recommendations received by our Company Secretary at our headquarters no later than September 1, 2022.
COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN SHAREHOLDERS OR INTERESTED PARTIES AND THE BOARDS
Shareholders or interested parties who wish to communicate with the Boards, the Presiding Director, the Non-Executive Directors as a group or any individual Director should address their communications to:

Any amount reimbursed for spousal or partner travel is reported below in the “Director Compensation for Fiscal 2021” table. For fiscal 2021, the Presiding Director received an additional retainer of  $25,000 per annum. In addition, each Non-Executive Director who served as Chair of a Board Committee received an additional $30,000 as compensation for such service on each Board Committee.
Board members who are employed by us do not receive additional compensation for their services as a member of the Boards of Directors.
The Boards of Directors are committed to attracting and retaining a highly diverse, experienced and capable group of Non-Executive Directors. To that end, the Compensation Committees review non-executive director pay levels and compensation practices of certain other publicly-listed companies on an annual basis with the assistance of their
consultant to ensure our compensation program is competitive. Non-Executive Directors receive payment of their earned retainer in quarterly installments. Annual retainers are pro-rated so that adjustments can be made during the year. Unearned portions of cash retainers are forfeited upon termination of service.
Non-Executive Directors receive annual restricted share grants under the Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan. In April 2021, each Non-Executive Director received a grant with a dollar value equal to approximately $175,000. As a result, a grant of 6,804 Carnival Corporation restricted shares was made to each Non-Executive Director re-elected on April 20, 2021 based on the closing price of a Carnival Corporation share on that date of  $25.72.
The annual restricted share grants under the Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan are released from restriction on April 20, 2024 (and are not forfeitable provided the Director has served at least a full year). Restricted shares granted have the same rights with respect to dividends and other distributions as all other outstanding shares of Carnival Corporation common stock. Generally, Non-Executive Directors will receive their annual grants initially upon their election to the Boards and subsequently at the time of their annual re-election to the Boards.

NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR POLICIES
The following policies also apply to our Non-Executive Directors:

STOCK OWNERSHIP POLICY. The stock ownership policy for Non-Executive Directors provides that all Non-Executive Directors are required to own shares (inclusive of unvested restricted shares, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and shares in a trust beneficially owned by the Director) of either Carnival Corporation common stock or Carnival plc ordinary shares with a value equal to five times the cash retainer. New Directors must achieve this requirement no later than five years from the date of their initial election to the Boards by the shareholders. The stock ownership policy for Non-Executive Directors provides that a Non-Executive Director will be deemed to be in compliance with the ownership requirements if the decline in the Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc share price after February 28, 2020 resulted in the Non-Executive Director falling below the applicable ownership level, provided that they were in compliance prior
to February 28, 2020 and do not sell or transfer ownership of any such shares until after the ownership target has again been achieved, unless otherwise approved by the Boards of Directors. This modification was deemed appropriate given the extraordinary impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our share price. Other than Mr. Gearhart (initially elected in 2021), each of the Non-Executive Directors elected has achieved this Board-mandated requirement.

PRODUCT FAMILIARIZATION. All Non-Executive Directors are encouraged to take a cruise(s) for up to a total of 14 days per year for product familiarization and pay a fare of  $35 per person per day for such cruises (or $50 per day in the case of Seabourn), plus taxes, fees and port expenses. All other charges associated with the cruise (e.g., air, ground transfers, gratuities, tours and fuel supplements, if any) are the responsibility of the Non-Executive Director.
CARNIVAL PLC NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Additional information with respect to Carnival plc’s compensation and reimbursement practices during fiscal 2021 for Non-Executive Directors is included in
Part II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report, which is attached as Annex B to this Proxy Statement.
Related Person Transactions
REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
Consistent with our written policies and procedures, it is our practice to review all relationships and transactions in which Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc is a participant and in which our Directors, nominees and executive officers and their immediate family members and any five percent beneficial holders have an interest in order to determine whether such related persons have a direct or indirect material interest. Our Legal and Global Accounting and Reporting Services Departments are primarily responsible for the development and implementation of processes and controls to obtain information from the Directors, nominees and executive officers with respect to related person transactions and for then determining, based on the facts and
circumstances, whether a related person has a direct or indirect material interest in the transaction. As required under SEC rules, transactions exceeding $120,000 in which Carnival Corporation & plc was or is to be a participant and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest are disclosed in this Proxy Statement.
In addition, in accordance with our Schedule of Matters Reserved to the Boards and their Committees for their Decision, the Boards review and approve or ratify any related person transaction involving:

a Director, regardless of the amount; and

a non-director executive officer with an aggregate value in excess of  $50,000.
CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT | 31

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Corporate Governance and Board Matters
Related Person Transactions
In the course of their review and approval or ratification of a related person transaction, the Boards may consider factors as follows:

the nature of the related person’s interest in the transaction;

the material terms of the transaction, including, without limitation, the amount and type of transaction;

the importance of the transaction to the related person;

the importance of the transaction to Carnival Corporation & plc;

whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a Director or executive officer to act in our best interest; and

any other matters the Boards deem appropriate.
Any member of the Boards who is a related person with respect to a transaction under review may not participate in the deliberations or vote respecting approval or ratification of the transaction, provided, however, that such Director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board that considers the transaction.
TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
TRANSACTIONS WITH MICKY ARISON
Micky Arison, our Chair, is also the Chair, President and the indirect majority shareholder of FBA II, Inc., the general partner of Miami Heat Limited Partnership (“MHLP”), the owner of the Miami Heat, a professional basketball team. He is also the indirect shareholder of Basketball Properties, Inc., the general partner of Basketball Properties, Ltd. (“BPL”), which is the manager and operator of the FTX Arena (formerly known as the American Airlines Arena). In July 2021, Carnival Cruise Line entered into an amendment of the advertising and promotion agreement between Carnival Cruise Line, MHLP and BPL to waive certain payments for the most recent contract year of the agreement and extend the term through 2025, with a four-year extension option. Pursuant to this agreement, Carnival Cruise Line paid $433,000 during fiscal 2021.
In August 2015, Carnival Corporation entered into a nonexclusive Aircraft Lease Agreement with an owner trustee under a trust agreement with Ad Astra I, LLC (the “Lease Agreement”); and in August 2020, Carnival Corporation entered into a Services Agreement with Nickel Cayman Management, LLC (the “Services Agreement” and together with the Lease Agreement, the “Aircraft Agreements”). In March 2021, the Lease Agreement and the Services Agreement were amended to adjust the rental rate and aircraft management fee to account for substantially all flight department overhead being borne by Nickel Cayman Management, LLC following Carnival Corporation’s disposal of its own aircraft in December 2020.
Each of Ad Astra I, LLC and Nickel Cayman Management, LLC are companies directly or indirectly controlled by a trust of which Mr. Arison is a beneficiary. He is also an officer of Nickel Cayman Management, LLC.
Under the terms of the amended Lease Agreement, Carnival Corporation leases an aircraft beneficially owned by Ad Astra I, LLC from time-to-time in exchange for an hourly rent of  $7,920 plus applicable taxes, which is based on market lease rates for similar aircraft as adjusted for costs of operations borne by Carnival Corporation (i.e., fuel and line maintenance during its operation of the aircraft) and hourly service plan expenses.
Under the terms of the amended Services Agreement, Carnival Corporation provides aircraft management services to Nickel Cayman Management, LLC with respect to the aircraft, including overseeing its operation, maintenance, and staffing, and is paid an annual fee of  $162,000 (which is based on market rates for similar arrangements) (the “Service Fee”). In addition, Carnival Corporation is reimbursed for operating, maintenance and personnel costs and related third party costs incurred in connection with the services (“Service Costs”). The terms of the Aircraft Agreements are one year and renew automatically for one-year periods, unless terminated sooner by either party upon 30 days’ written notice.
During fiscal 2021, Carnival Corporation paid Ad Astra I, LLC $583,000 under the Lease Agreement,

and Nickel Cayman Management, LLC paid Carnival Corporation $189,000 as the Service Fee and reimbursed Carnival Corporation $2,597,613 for the Service Costs.

As part of the establishment of the DLC arrangement, Carnival plc issued a special voting share to Carnival Corporation, which transferred such share to the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust (the “Trust”), a trust established under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Trust shares of beneficial interest in the Trust were transferred to Carnival Corporation. The trust shares represent a beneficial interest in the Carnival plc special voting share. Immediately following the transfer, Carnival Corporation

distributed such trust shares by way of a dividend to holders of shares of Carnival Corporation common stock. Under a pairing agreement, the trust shares of beneficial interest in the Trust are paired with, and evidenced by, certificates representing shares of Carnival Corporation common stock on a one-for-one basis. In addition, under the pairing agreement, when a share of Carnival Corporation common stock is issued to a person after the implementation of the DLC arrangement, a paired trust share will be issued at the same time to such person. Each share of Carnival Corporation common stock and the paired trust share may not be transferred separately. The Carnival Corporation common stock and the trust shares (including the beneficial interest in the Carnival plc special voting share) are listed and trade together on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “CCL.” Accordingly, each holder of Carnival Corporation common stock is also deemed to be the beneficial owner of an equivalent number of trust shares.
**
As a result of the DLC arrangement, on most matters that affect all of the shareholders of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, the shareholders of both companies effectively vote together as a single decision-making body. Combined voting is accomplished through the special voting shares that have been issued by each company.

PROPOSAL 13
Advisory (Non-Binding) Vote to Approve Executive Compensation
As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, our shareholders are being provided with the opportunity to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote to approve our executive compensation. We refer to this vote as the “say-on-pay” vote. Although this vote is advisory and is not binding on the Boards, the Compensation Committees will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation decisions.
The “say-on-pay” vote is required to be offered to our shareholders at least once every three years. In 2017, our Boards recommended that we provide shareholders with the opportunity to cast their “say-on-pay” vote each year and our shareholders agreed. As a result, the next “say-on-pay” vote is expected to occur at the 2023 Annual Meetings of Shareholders.
The Boards are committed to corporate governance best practices and recognize the significant interest of shareholders in executive compensation matters. The Compensation Committees seek to balance short-term and long-term compensation opportunities to enable Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc to meet short-term objectives while continuing to produce value for their shareholders over the long-term. They also promote a compensation program designed to attract, motivate and retain key executives. As discussed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Compensation Committees believe that our current executive compensation program directly links executive compensation to our performance and
aligns the interests of our Named Executive Officers with those of our shareholders. For example:
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
Our compensation philosophy places more emphasis on variable elements of compensation (such as annual bonuses and equity-based compensation) than fixed remuneration.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
In accordance with the Compensation Committees’ focus on long-term shareholder returns, the Compensation Committees have historically approved performance-based share grants for our Named Executive Officers which vest based upon the extent to which certain pre-grant or post-grant performance criteria are attained. In light of the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the unanticipated pause in our guest cruise operations in mid-March 2020 and the uncertainty surrounding the gradual restart of sailing since September 2020, the Compensation Committees acknowledged the inability to set meaningful or realistic long-term financial goals at the start of fiscal 2021 in the current business environment and approved TBS grants in the form of RSUs for fiscal 2021. The Compensation Committee expects to return to performance-based share grants for fiscal 2022.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickpn.jpg]
To further promote long-term shareholder alignment, we require our Named Executive Officers to meet and maintain stock ownership requirements.

INTRODUCTION
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc are separate legal entities (together referred to in this Report as “Carnival Corporation & plc”) and each company has its own Board of Directors and Compensation Committee. However, as is required by the agreements governing the DLC arrangement, the Boards of Directors and members of the Committees of the Boards, including the Compensation Committees, are identical and there is a single senior management team.
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc are subject to disclosure regimes in the U.S. and UK. While some of the disclosure requirements are the same or similar, some are very different. As a result, the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report is in two parts. The information contained in this Part I constitutes the Compensation Discussion and Analysis as required by regulations promulgated by the SEC and includes information that Carnival plc is required to disclose in accordance with Schedule 8 of the LMCG Regulations.
Part II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report is set forth as Annex B to this Proxy Statement and includes the additional information that Carnival plc is required to disclose in accordance with the LMCG Regulations, including certain information that has been audited for the purposes of the Carnival plc Annual Report.
Parts I and II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report are in compliance with the LMCG Regulations, the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Companies Act and the Listing Rules of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”). Both Parts I and II form part of the Carnival plc Annual Report for the year ended November 30, 2021.
Pursuant to rules promulgated by the SEC and the LMCG Regulations, this Compensation Discussion and Analysis reviews the compensation of the following Named Executive Officers of Carnival Corporation & plc:

Mr. Perez served as an executive officer until March 2021 when he stepped down as General Counsel. Mr. Perez continues to serve as Company Secretary and Senior Vice President. He is included as a Named Executive Officer for 2021 because disclosure would have been provided pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K but for the fact that he was not serving as an executive officer at the end of 2021.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Our executive compensation program was designed to reward financial results and effective strategic leadership through use of both short-term rewards and long-term incentives and to promote alignment of the financial interests of our executive officers with our shareholders. We seek to provide a total direct compensation package (salary, bonus and equity grants) that allows us to be competitive in the labor markets where we compete for executive talent, adjusted as necessary to take into consideration factors including the relevant senior executive’s performance, experience and responsibilities. We endeavored to align our compensation program’s performance measures with the interests of our shareholders and senior executives by linking actual pay to operating performance and shareholder outcomes.
Our compensation philosophy has historically been to emphasize at-risk incentive pay in order to drive a pay-for-performance culture. In furtherance of this philosophy, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, all direct compensation for our Named Executive Officers, other than base salary, was 100% at-risk and
performance-based. This compensation philosophy also extends beyond our Named Executive Officers to include other key executives, reflecting the Compensation Committees’ commitment to aligning compensation with the success of Carnival Corporation & plc.
Given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we made changes to the compensation elements of our Named Executive Officers as outlined below.
Most of our executive officers are located in the U.S., with one based in Europe. As a global entity, it is challenging to establish consistent compensation practices across geographic and operating company units that satisfy the particular requirements of all jurisdictions and local market demands. Since the largest presence of executive officers is in the U.S., our compensation policies primarily reflect U.S. market practices. However, the Compensation Committees seek to incorporate UK compensation principles, including those contained in the UK Corporate Governance Code, to the degree practicable.

2021 BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
With guest cruise operations completely halted by the COVID-19 global pandemic in early 2020, Carnival Corporation & plc diverted attention to protecting the health and safety of guests and team members, took action to preserve cash and obtain additional capital to increase liquidity, and took steps to optimize business operations and the future fleet. Later that year, we resumed limited guest operations with adjusted passenger capacity and enhanced health protocols. Despite our best efforts, the impact of COVID-19 resulted in unpredictable starts and stops of guest operations, and we could not predict the timing of our complete return to service or when various ports would reopen to our ships. At the beginning of 2021, only one of our ships was operating with guests onboard.
Throughout fiscal 2021, we continued to emphasize business recovery while maintaining our commitment
to compliance, environmental protection and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, crew, shoreside employees and the people in the communities our ships visit. By November 30, 2021, 61% of our company’s capacity was operating with guests on board and we are continuing to work diligently with the goal of returning the full fleet to service by the spring of 2022.
Our ability to resume guest cruise operations is enabled by our relentless efforts to protect the health and safety of guests and team members. We have established, and continually review protocols for COVID-19 and its variants by working directly with various local governmental authorities, world-leading public health, epidemiological and policy experts. These advisors continue to provide guidance based on the latest scientific evidence and best practices for protection and mitigation.
2021 COMPENSATION OVERVIEW
In early 2021, the Compensation Committees met with management to discuss the 2021 compensation program in light of evolving business priorities, continuing business disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the uncertain operating outlook, the need to promote retention and leadership stability, and in consideration of shareholder feedback and support. Prior to 2021, our annual and long-term incentive programs were entirely performance-based, and centered around formulaic pre-established goals promoting growth, compliance and profitability.
The Compensation Committees determined it would need to temporarily modify its approach to incentive compensation in 2021 to address the business environment. The magnitude and duration of the global COVID-19 pandemic is uncertain and we have never previously experienced a complete cessation and subsequent gradual resumption of our guest cruise operations, and as a consequence, it was impractical to set any pre-established operating income goals on a short- or long-term basis. The Compensation Committees wanted to promote behaviors consistent with our top priority which is compliance, environmental protection and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the people in communities we touch and serve, and our shipboard and shoreside employees.
For these reasons, the Compensation Committees elected to build fiscal 2021 compensation on three key components: base salary, annual bonus and a time-based long-term incentive, as permitted under the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Policy that was approved in April 2020. The bonus plan rewards qualitative performance objectives under an extended pause in guest cruise operations with the objective to concentrate global company-wide efforts on four key priorities: (1) cash management, (2) return to service, (3) compliance and culture and (4) ESG. The long-term incentive is in the form of TBS grants. TBS grants promote retention and leadership stability in a highly uncertain and volatile business environment.
Fiscal 2021 marks a temporary change in the design of our incentive compensation program to address unprecedented business challenges; however, our compensation philosophy has not changed as we continue to emphasize at-risk pay in order to drive a pay-for-performance culture. Despite the substantial challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, our management team has worked tirelessly to ensure our business returns safer and stronger when our fleet returns to full service. As our business recovers, we anticipate our incentive plans will also return to reflect a fully at-risk and performance-based design.

PROCESS FOR MAKING COMPENSATION DETERMINATIONS
The Compensation Committees determine the compensation policy and the compensation payable to all of our executive officers. The Compensation Committees interact with the management of Carnival Corporation & plc on compensation issues primarily through communications, meetings and discussions with the Chief Executive Officer, the Chair of the Boards of Directors and the Chief Human Resources Officer, who also attend meetings of the Compensation Committees as requested by the Compensation Committees. As part of the fiscal 2021 annual compensation determination process, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chair of the Boards of Directors recommended to the Compensation Committees key initiatives and goals for Carnival Corporation & plc at the beginning of the fiscal year.
In fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committees continued to consult with the leadership team and their independent consultants on matters such as compensation planning, staffing levels and retention incentives with the goals of supporting employees, attracting necessary personnel and recognizing the extraordinary efforts of management and the workforce in navigating the pause and
resumption of guest cruise operations. The Compensation Committees took into consideration business needs and the impact of decisions on employees and shareholders.
After the fiscal year was completed, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chair of the Boards of Directors reviewed with the Compensation Committees the results of those initiatives, progress towards goals and other material items relating to overall Carnival Corporation & plc performance. The Chief Executive Officer reviewed the annual competitive market analysis provided by the independent consultant, as well as individual performance of each Named Executive Officer and the results of the group of brands or company-wide results, as appropriate, and provided the Compensation Committees with recommended total target compensation levels for each Named Executive Officer, except for his own. The compensation for our Named Executive Officers was then determined by the Compensation Committees using their discretion to evaluate the individual performance of our Named Executive Officers and the overall performance of Carnival Corporation & plc.
INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANTS
The Compensation Committees have engaged Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (“FW Cook”) (together with its UK affiliated firm, FIT Remuneration Consultants LLP (“FIT”)) to assist in their annual review of our executive and Director compensation programs. The Compensation Committees believe that FW Cook and FIT provided objective advice to the Compensation Committees. FW Cook and FIT provide no other services to Carnival Corporation & plc.
During fiscal 2021, a consultant from FW Cook attended meetings of the Compensation Committees
and provided FW Cook’s views on proposed actions by the Compensation Committees.
In accordance with the New York Stock Exchange rules relating to compensation consultant independence, the Compensation Committees have determined that FW Cook and FIT and their consultants are independent after taking into consideration the factors set forth in the New York Stock Exchange rules. Pursuant to the foregoing factors, the Compensation Committees have determined that FW Cook’s and FIT’s work raised no conflicts of interest.
PEER GROUP CHARACTERISTICS
The Compensation Committees perform an annual review of the compensation practices of certain other publicly-listed companies with the assistance of their consultant. This annual market assessment
consists of an analysis of executive pay at a group of publicly-listed peer companies.
In April 2019, based on the recommendations of FW Cook, the Compensation Committees approved a peer group listed below (the “Peer Group”), which was
CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT | 43

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part I)
used when assessing the fiscal 2021 compensation for our Named Executive Officers. The Peer Group consists of 19 publicly-listed companies from diverse industries that exhibit similar pre-COVID-19 pandemic size and business characteristics with Carnival Corporation & plc, noting also that not all members of the Peer Group were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the same way. At the time the Peer Group was approved, our revenue ranked at the 45th percentile and market capitalization ranked at the 59th percentile of the Peer Group. We operate in a niche industry with a limited number of other
publicly traded cruise operators. The Peer Group reflects the market in which we may compete for business, investor capital and/or executive talent and is more closely aligned to our business complexity, breath, scope, median reviews and market capitalization. The Peer Group reflects a balanced group of companies in the consumer discretionary sector, including media, retailing, services and transportation companies. For these reasons, the Peer Group was not changed in 2021 and is anticipated to be used in assessing fiscal 2022 compensation for our Named Executive Officers.

COMPETITIVE MARKET (PEER GROUP) COMPARISON
Annually, the Compensation Committees’ independent consultant, FW Cook, conducts a competitive market review to assist the Compensation Committees in their assessment of our Named Executive Officers’ competitive positioning of total compensation relative to the markets in which Carnival Corporation & plc competes for executive talent. FW Cook conducted a competitive market assessment on behalf of the Compensation Committees for fiscal 2021. The Compensation Committees reviewed our aggregate Named Executive Officer total compensation in comparison to the competitive market, which consists of the Peer Group as well as third-party surveys that reflect a broad database of hundreds of companies. The Compensation Committees were not provided with the identities of the companies in the surveys generally (or of the subsets of companies which had data for relevant comparable positions). As applicable, any utilized survey data was combined with the data for the Peer Group to produce a consolidated aggregated competitive market range for total direct compensation.
These analyses suggest that, in the aggregate, total direct compensation levels for our Named Executive Officers are competitively positioned. The Compensation Committees, as advised by FW Cook, consider total direct compensation to be generally competitive when within a range of 15% above or below the market median. Actual pay positioning can vary based on factors including job responsibilities, experience, impact of role and individual performance.
Consistent with the approach that the Compensation Committees take in reviewing each element of total direct compensation, the Compensation Committees utilize these analyses to assess the extent to which the compensation provided to our Named Executive Officers is generally consistent with that offered by companies with whom Carnival Corporation & plc competes for executive level talent. The Compensation Committees do not use these analyses to peg any particular element of compensation (or total compensation) to any specific targeted Peer Group level.

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION DESIGN, ELEMENTS AND PAY MIX
The compensation elements for our Named Executive Officers consist of:

base salary;

an annual bonus;

equity-based compensation; and

perquisites.
In determining the amount of any particular compensation element, the Compensation
Committees consider the impact of such an element on total compensation (and thus, each element affects the amount paid in respect of other elements of compensation). For example, the Compensation Committees consider the amount of the base salary and annual bonus that may be earned by a Named Executive Officer when making an equity grant.
2021 COMPENSATION RECOMMENDATIONS AND RATIONALE
RISK CONSIDERATIONS
The Compensation Committees believe that the incentive structure for senior management does not raise ESG risks by inadvertently motivating irresponsible behavior, and that risks arising from Carnival Corporation & plc’s compensation policies and practices for their workforce are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Carnival Corporation & plc. Please refer to the “Compensation Risk Assessment” section for additional information.
In this regard, Mr. Anderson does not participate in the Management Incentive Plan. According to his employment agreement entered into when he was retained as our Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer, his annual bonus is intentionally based solely on his personal performance to ensure that his incentives for annual performance are linked directly to his role supporting our ethics and compliance objectives and performance.
BASE SALARIES
Base salaries are intended to provide a level of fixed compensation that is reflective of each Named Executive Officer’s level of responsibility. Base salaries of our Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2021 are reported in the “Summary Compensation Table.” The Compensation Committees annually review each Named Executive Officer’s performance and may increase the base salary of a Named Executive Officer at their discretion if merited by performance or other market factors necessary to attract and retain our executives.
Salaries for our Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2021 were returned to 2020 target levels ending the
temporary reductions applied from July through the end of fiscal 2020. There was no increase in the base salaries of our Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2021, except for Mr. Miguez, whose salary was increased commensurate with his increased responsibilities as General Counsel, and Mr. Perez, whose salary was increased as part of an adjustment in compensation to reflect the changes in his role, which adjustment also involved the removal of other components of his compensation.
ANNUAL BONUSES
In fiscal 2021, each Named Executive Officer’s target bonus comprised a significant portion of their respective total cash compensation opportunity, supporting Carnival Corporation & plc’s objective to
emphasize pay for performance. Annual bonus payments are intended to reward short-term individual and corporate, performance results and achievements. The emphasis on the annual bonus as

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part I)
compared to base salary allows Carnival Corporation & plc to more closely link individual and overall company performance. Fiscal 2021 bonuses for our Named Executive Officers are reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” under the column labeled “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation.”
Annual cash bonuses for our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Anderson as described above, are determined in accordance with the Carnival Corporation & plc Management Incentive Plan (the “Management Incentive Plan”). The Management Incentive Plan is designed to focus the attention of our executives on achieving strong performance results and is a core component of our compensation program that supports our pay for performance philosophy.
Historically, the Management Incentive Plan structure closely linked financial results to individual and overall company performance, primarily using the metric of operating income. This was the approach put in place for fiscal 2020, finalized just a few months before the unprecedented total shutdown of our guest cruise operations in March of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the cruise industry created significant uncertainty as to our revenue and earnings for 2021 and 2022, which, together with the many other issues relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, forced us to adjust our near term priorities.
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, management was faced with an overwhelmingly complicated set of tasks—to understand as best they could what they were dealing with as far as the epidemiology of COVID-19; to return over 250,000 guests and close to 90,000 crew members to their homes, at a time when airports and nations were shutting down; to manage extensive and constantly changing health protocols from each of the many countries in which we operate and so much more.
As it became apparent that the COVID-19 pandemic was going to continue to significantly impact the cruise industry and our company in 2021 and likely into 2022, the Boards of Directors, working with management, established clear priorities for the management, including our Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2021. The Compensation Committees,
working with its advisors, developed a performance program to align management with those priorities.
In January 2021, the Chief Executive Officer provided the Compensation Committees with his recommendations regarding the fiscal 2021 target bonus amounts under the Management Incentive Plan for our Named Executive Officers (other than himself and Mr. Anderson), in which there was no increase from their fiscal 2020 target bonuses. Mr. Anderson’s target bonus is set forth in his employment agreement. The Compensation Committees accepted the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations. These amounts were established by the Compensation Committees after taking into consideration the competitive market analysis prepared by its advisors, historical bonus payout levels, the challenging areas of priority established by the Compensation Committees for fiscal 2021 and the Compensation Committees’ continued philosophy to place emphasis on performance-based pay elements.
The priorities established by the Boards of Directors for 2021 were organized into four areas:

to have adequate liquidity to manage through the COVID-19 pandemic;

to do everything possible to enable our ships for return to service safely with health protocols and procedures in place for our crew and guests;

to improve our operational capability through reenforcing a culture of compliance and transparency; and

to maintain our long-term commitment to the environment and our ESG goals.
In evaluating Carnival Corporation & plc’s and management’s performance over the year against these priorities, the Compensation Committees met regularly with management to review their specific actions and results.
It is the determination of the Compensation Committees that the performance of management, including the Named Executive Officers, in fiscal 2021 was exemplary and should therefore be rewarded accordingly. In making this determination, the Compensation Committees evaluated management’s performance in each of the focus areas as follows:
46 | CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part I)
LIQUIDITY
In evaluating management’s responsibility to manage cash and to ensure solvency, the Compensation Committees considered that management executed $27 billion of financing transactions over the course of the pandemic, ending fiscal 2021 with $9.4 billion in liquidity and $3.5 billion in customer deposits. Management also renegotiated more than 100 different financing arrangements and was able to optimize our debt maturity profile by refinancing
$9 billion in debt, while at the same time reducing our annual future interest expense by approximately $400 million per year and extending maturities. Maintaining ample liquidity through this period was critical in positioning us to continue to deal with the ongoing uncertainties created by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have been able to restart guest cruise operations and were able to achieve positive cash from operations in the month of November 2021.
RETURN TO SERVICE
In evaluating management’s efforts in return to service, the Compensation Committees considered how management resumed operations as quickly and as practical, while at the same time demonstrating prudent stewardship of capital, and in a way that serves the best interests of public health. As of November 30, 2021, 61% of our capacity was operating with guests on board, compared to one ship operating at the beginning of the year. Revenue per passenger cruise day for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 was ahead of what was a very strong fiscal 2019. This is a testament to the fundamental strength of the core business and management’s successful efforts in formulating health and safety protocols to bolster consumer confidence and demand for our services. In the face of what has been called the “great resignation” or alternatively, the “great realization,” we retained, motivated and returned more than 60,000 employees back to work from over 90 countries
around the globe. Against nearly impossible obstacles, management proactively made available vaccines, and now boosters for our crew members, many of whom otherwise may not have had access to vaccines. Management worked with top scientists and public health, epidemiological and policy experts to put in place comprehensive health and safety protocols to support our return to service. We believe these protocols and procedures have made cruising amongst the safest forms of travel, vacation and social gathering, which has directly contributed to consumer confidence in cruising and is evidenced by the fact that at November 31, 2021, cumulative advanced bookings for the second half of 2022 and first half of 2023 were at the higher end of historical ranges and at higher prices. In addition, management worked with governments and health organizations around the world to allow cruising to resume while serving the best interests of public health.
COMPLIANCE AND TRANSPARENCY
Importantly, throughout 2021, management also kept compliance excellence as one of their highest priorities through its ongoing efforts to improve our overall compliance culture by strengthening the focus on the essential behaviors of respect, listening, empowering, speaking up, communicating and continually improving. Management led by example through training and development, frequent
messaging by leaders to increase awareness and highlight learnings, and everyday real time feedback. Using 17 leading quantitative indicators of environmental and compliance progress, management, including the Named Executive Officers, continued to demonstrate overall positive trend improvement in these key metrics.
ESG PERFORMANCE
In 2021, management also upheld their commitment to elevating Carnival Corporation & plc’s ESG performance, focusing on advancing our six critical sustainability focus areas—climate action; circular
economy; sustainable tourism; good health and well-being; diversity, equity and inclusion; and biodiversity and conservation. A key focus of these efforts is
CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT | 47

Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part I)
climate action, which includes a commitment to reduce carbon emissions.
The Compensation Committee considered management’s leadership in executing carbon reduction strategies, including innovating to drive energy efficiency and partnering with key organizations and stakeholders on research and development. In 2021, we were the only company in the world to be operating cruise ships powered by LNG, which are 20% more carbon efficient, decreasing our unit fuel consumption today. In addition, Carnival Corporation & plc’s CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project) score for climate change improved from a “C” to a “B” in recognition of its enhanced disclosures, including the establishment of its 2030 sustainability goals and 2050 aspirations.
Even though we are already among the most diverse companies in the world with a global employee base representing over 130 countries, we continued to focus efforts on making continued progress on diversity and inclusion at every level and in all areas of our operations.
In summary, fiscal 2021 was a year that challenged many management teams across many industries. Of all industry segments, one of the most seriously impacted has been travel and tourism, and within the travel and tourism sector, without question, one of the most challenged has been the cruise sector.
Management, including our Named Executive Officers, met all the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic head on through their highest level of commitment and their highest level of performance, allowing shareholders and stakeholders alike to have
confidence that their investments and interests in Carnival Corporation & plc are being met with a high degree of professionalism and stewardship.
In January 2022, the Compensation Committees met again with management to review their specific performance as well as received a comprehensive report describing the accomplishments in each of the four areas described above. After review and in acknowledgement of the extraordinary efforts and accomplishments in fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committees determined that the bonus payout for the Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2021 would be 200% of target. In addition, the Compensation Committees received an assessment of Mr. Anderson’s performance from Chief Executive Officer after consultation with the Audit, Compliance and HESS Committees. The Compensation Committees determined that Mr. Anderson’s personal performance warranted him receiving the maximum bonus under his employment agreement. Accordingly, the fiscal 2021 target and earned bonuses were as follows:

EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
General
The Compensation Committees grant equity-based compensation to our Named Executive Officers to provide long-term incentives and align management and shareholder interests. The Compensation Committees believe that a substantial portion of compensation should be equity-based. The equity-based compensation program is designed to:

Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part I)
To further augment these views, the equity program prior to fiscal 2021 was 100% performance-based for our Named Executive Officers and other key executives within Carnival Corporation & plc. However, given the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the unanticipated pause in our guest cruise operations and uncertainty surrounding the restart of sailing, in January 2021 the Compensation Committees acknowledged the inability to set meaningful or realistic long-term financial goals in the current business environment and approved TBS grants for fiscal 2021.
Our equity-based compensation grants are made pursuant to the Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan or the Carnival plc 2014 Employee Share Plan, and are consistent with the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Policy, which have been approved by Carnival Corporation & plc’s shareholders. Messrs. Donald, Bernstein, Anderson, Miguez and Perez received equity grants under the Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan. Mr. Thamm received equity grants under the Carnival plc 2014 Employee Share Plan.
The specific equity grants made to our Named Executive Officers in early 2021 reflected the desire of the Compensation Committees to promote retention and leadership stability, to continue to align management around our evolving priorities and strengthen the alignment with shareholder interests. The number and form of equity grants made annually to our Named Executive Officers are determined both in the discretion of the Compensation Committees and pursuant to certain agreements with certain Named Executive Officers. Existing ownership levels are not a factor in grant determinations, as the Compensation Committees do not want to discourage executives from holding significant amounts of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc shares.
The value of equity grants made to our Named Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer was determined by the Compensation Committees after reviewing the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chair of the Boards of Directors and the other elements of the Named Executive Officer’s current year compensation, taking into account:

the position and role of the Named Executive Officer;

the individual performance in the preceding fiscal year and historically; and

the perceived future value to Carnival Corporation & plc.
When reviewing the competitive market assessment provided by FW Cook for total direct compensation, the Compensation Committees also evaluated the long-term and short-term incentive compensation components to confirm that the value of a Named Executive Officer’s aggregate equity-based compensation and total direct compensation remains generally competitive. Similar to the approach taken for the other Named Executive Officers, the value of equity grants made to the Chief Executive Officer was determined by the Compensation Committees after consultation with FW Cook, taking into account:

his position and role;

his individual performance;

perceived future value; and

competitive market position.
Disclosure and the Timing of Equity-Based Compensation
The Compensation Committees met in January 2021 to determine the target values of the TBS grants, which are the equity-based compensation for key executives in fiscal 2021.
Fiscal 2021 Annual Grants
2021 TBS Grants
In January 2021, the Compensation Committees approved a TBS grant value for each of our Named Executive Officers and certain other executives. Each grant value was determined after consideration of recommendations received from the Chief Executive Officer and the Chair of the Boards of Directors, as well as reviewing the scope of the Named Executive Officers’ responsibilities, performance and long-term retention considerations. TBS vest on a three-year pro-rata basis starting on the first anniversary of the grant date.

2019 Shareholder Equity Alignment (“SEA”) Grants
The 2019 SEA grants made to the Named Executive Officers in January 2019 reached the end of the performance period at the end of fiscal 2021. Under the terms of the 2019 SEA grant, shares vest based upon the extent to which our absolute TSR compound annual growth rate over the December 1,
2018 to November 30, 2021 performance period and TSR ranking relative to the 2019 Peer Group for the same period reached or exceeded certain goals. The 90-day average starting price for the 2019 SEA grant was $52.88. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our share price, the ending 90-day average price at November 30, 2021 was $24.23, resulting in no payout for these grants.
PERQUISITES AND OTHER COMPENSATION
Our Named Executive Officers are provided various perquisites believed by the Compensation Committees to be representative of common practices for executives in their respective countries. Some of Messrs. Donald’s and Thamm’s perquisites and other benefits are provided pursuant to terms of their employment agreements. The Compensation Committees, with the assistance of FW Cook, review perquisites provided to our Named Executive Officers on a periodic basis and take into account each Named Executive Officer’s particular circumstances and overall level of compensation, and believe that perquisites provided by Carnival Corporation & plc continue to be an appropriate element of the overall compensation package used to attract and retain such officers.
The Compensation Committees have approved a policy to establish procedures and controls as to the authorized use of aircraft owned, operated or chartered by Carnival Corporation & plc (the “Aircraft”). According to the policy, the Aircraft can only be used for business purposes. Guests may accompany these executives when traveling. The Compensation Committees have also agreed to allow Mr. Donald to use the Aircraft for personal use so long as the incremental cost to Carnival Corporation & plc does not exceed $200,000 per year. Once that threshold is reached, Mr. Donald will reimburse us for those costs (subject to applicable regulatory limitations). The Compensation Committees determined that the Aircraft usage policy and levels of usage and costs
were consistent with those offered by large multinational companies like Carnival Corporation & plc.
In lieu of participation in the Carnival Corporation Nonqualified Savings Plan under which plans were discontinued in accordance with Section 457A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Compensation Committees approved payment of additional annual compensation directly to these employees in an amount equal to what would have been deposited on behalf of those employees into that plan, less, as described below, any amount Carnival Corporation contributes to the Carnival Corporation Fun Ship Savings Plan, a 401(k) plan (the “401(k) Plan”). These payments are taxable as ordinary income.
Beginning with the 2010 calendar year, the 401(k) Plan was amended and currently allows Messrs. Donald, Bernstein. Anderson, Miguez and Perez (as well as all other highly compensated employees) to defer a limited amount of compensation into the 401(k) Plan subject to nondiscrimination testing. Until June 2020, when the matching contributions were suspended through the end of December 2020, and from January 2021, Carnival Corporation made matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan under the plan’s formula, subject to nondiscrimination testing.
The perquisites received by each Named Executive Officer in fiscal 2021, as well as their incremental cost to Carnival Corporation & plc, are reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” and its accompanying footnotes.
POST-EMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION OBLIGATIONS
Carnival Corporation & plc does not have any change of control agreements that provide cash severance
to our Named Executive Officers upon a change of control of Carnival Corporation & plc, with the
CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT | 51

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Compensation Discussion and Analysis and Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part I)
exception of the employment agreement with Mr. Donald. Carnival Corporation & plc does not have employment agreements with any of our Named Executive Officers that provide cash severance benefits in connection with the termination of the executive’s employment, with the exception of employment agreements with Messrs. Donald, Anderson and Thamm.
Mr. Donald’s employment agreement is subject to renewal annually on October 14th of each year. If Mr. Donald wishes to leave prior to the end of the current term, he would generally need to provide at least 60 days’ written notice. The payments to Mr. Donald in the event of termination are set forth in the “Post-Employment Cash Compensation Obligations to Mr. Donald” section.
Mr. Anderson’s employment agreement is for a four-year term, commencing August 12, 2019. The payments to Mr. Anderson in the event of termination are set forth in the “Post-Employment Cash Compensation Obligations to Mr. Anderson” section.
Mr. Thamm’s employment agreement provides that he is generally entitled to an amount equal to 50% of his total remuneration most recently received by him as compensation for his agreement not to engage in competition with us for period of 12 months. The Compensation Committees believe that the severance benefits provided to Mr. Thamm under his employment agreement are reasonable and in accordance with market practice in the European Union.
Upon termination of employment for certain circumstances or upon a change of control, our Named Executive Officers may be entitled to retain or receive accelerated vesting of equity grants. Under the terms of the Carnival Corporation 2011 Stock Plan, the Carnival plc 2014 Employee Share Plan and the Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan, however, the default provision upon a change in control would provide only for a “double trigger” acceleration of equity grants (such that no acceleration would occur unless the participant’s employment were subsequently terminated by Carnival Corporation & plc (or its successor) without cause). These benefits are provided under the terms of the plans pursuant to which the equity grants were made, the grant agreement and under individual agreements with certain Named Executive Officers. However, none of our Named Executive Officers are entitled to receive any tax gross-up payments in respect of their severance benefits or accelerated equity grants. The benefits that our Named Executive Officers may be eligible to receive in connection with the termination of their employment or upon a change of control are described in detail in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control” section.
The Compensation Committees believe that these arrangements are reasonable and encourage an executive to comply with post-termination non-compete and other restrictive covenants and to cooperate with us both before and after their employment is terminated.
PENSIONS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS
Carnival Corporation & plc do not operate pension or deferred compensation programs for the Named Executive Officers.

COMPENSATION POLICIES AND PRACTICES
STOCK OWNERSHIP POLICY
Our Boards of Directors and Compensation Committees believe it is important for Directors and executive officers to build and maintain a long-term ownership position in Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc shares in order to align their financial interests with those of our shareholders and to encourage the creation of long-term value. Our compensation structure provides for a significant percentage of compensation to be equity-based, which places a substantial portion of
compensation at risk over a long-term period. Accordingly, our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers who are currently executive officers, are subject to a stock ownership policy. The policy specifies target ownership levels of Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc shares for each executive expressed in terms of the value of the equity holdings (excluding PBS and SEA grants which have not vested) as a multiple of each executive officer’s base salary. The target ownership levels are as follows:
Officers
Ownership Target―Multiple of Base Salary
Compliance Period
Chair and/or Chief Executive Officer
● ● ● ● ● ●
6x salary
5 years from appointment or promotion
Vice Chair and/or Chief Operating Officer
● ● ● ●
4x salary
Other Executive Officers
● ● ●
3x salary
Other than Mr. Anderson and Mr. Miguez (initially appointed as executive officers in 2021), all of our executive officers have achieved this Board-mandated requirement. Individuals who are newly designated as executive officers are expected to be in compliance with the stock ownership policy within five years of the date of becoming an executive officer.
Carnival Corporation & plc does not make any commitment to any persons covered by the stock ownership policy that they will receive any particular level of equity-based grants. The stock ownership policy provides that executive officers be required to retain at least 50% of the shares received upon release after deducting withholding taxes, until their target ownership is achieved.
HEDGING POLICY
Because we believe it is improper and inappropriate for any Board member or employee to engage in short-term or speculative transactions involving Carnival Corporation & plc securities, our Securities Trading Policy provides that they may not engage in any of the following activities with respect to Carnival Corporation & plc securities at any time:

purchasing of shares of either Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc on margin;

short sales; or

buying or selling puts, calls or other derivatives in respect of Carnival Corporation & plc securities.
Board members and employees may pledge shares, including as part of a margin account, but they are warned that sales of such shares could have securities law implications, including under Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Act.
Although we discourage speculative hedging transactions, employees (other than executive officers) are permitted to engage in long-term hedging transactions that are designed to protect their investment in Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc shares (i.e., the hedge must be for at least one year and relate to shares or options held by the individual). Any such transactions must be pre-cleared by the Legal Department. Because these activities raise issues under the U.S. federal securities laws, any person intending to engage in permitted hedging transactions is strongly urged to consult his or her own legal counsel.
Our Securities Trading Policy provides additional restrictions for Directors and executive officers. They are prohibited from purchasing, selling or writing any exchange-traded call and put options that have Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc shares as the
CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT | 53

underlying security. In addition, Directors and executive officers may not engage in any hedging transaction on Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc
shares that they beneficially own, including, but not limited to, “forward contracts,” “collars,” “equity swaps” or “straddles.”
SHAREHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
Carnival Corporation & plc has a long-standing shareholder outreach program and routinely interacts with shareholders on a number of matters, including executive compensation. The Compensation Committees consider all feedback received about executive compensation.
In April 2021, shareholders approved our “say-on-pay” proposal with 90.1% of the votes cast in favor of the compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers. During the past year, we continued to engage with shareholders and seek feedback on our compensation
program and incorporate the results of that feedback in our compensation decisions. The Compensation Committees did not make any changes to the executive compensation program specifically as a result of the 2021 “say-on-pay” vote.
The Compensation Committees have and will continue to consider results from the annual shareholder advisory votes, including the next vote in April 2022, as well as other shareholder input, when reviewing executive compensation programs and policies.
IMPACT OF REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS ON COMPENSATION
In making determinations regarding executive compensation, the Compensation Committees consider relevant issues relating to accounting treatment, tax treatment (both company and individual) and regulatory requirements. The global nature of Carnival Corporation & plc’s operations necessarily means that monitoring these technical issues and considering their potential impact on the
appropriate design and operation of executive remuneration programs is an increasingly complex exercise. Technical issues are evaluated in light of Carnival Corporation & plc’s philosophy and objectives for executive compensation and their corporate governance principles, as described earlier in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE
Although Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc are two separate entities, our business is run by a single senior management team. The following tables, narrative and footnotes discuss the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, our three other most highly compensated executive officers for the year ended November 30, 2021 and one former executive officer for whom disclosure would have been provided pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K but for the fact that he was
not serving as an executive officer at the end of fiscal 2021, who are referred to as the Named Executive Officers. Mr. Thamm’s cash compensation was payable in euro. These euro amounts have been converted into U.S. dollars at the average U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate for fiscal 2021 of  $1.19:1. The value for Carnival plc ordinary shares has been converted from sterling into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate on the date of grant, being $1.36:£1 on January 19, 2021.

No stock option grants were made in fiscal 2019 through 2021. The amounts included in the “Summary Compensation Table” reflect the grant date fair value, assuming no risk of forfeiture, of the grants of Carnival Corporation restricted shares and Carnival plc RSUs made to our Named Executive Officers in fiscal 2021, calculated in accordance with ASC 718. The valuation of share-based grants is discussed in Notes 2 and 13 to the financial statements in the Carnival Corporation & plc joint Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021. The amounts reflect the grant date fair value of the TBS grants made in February 2021, calculated in accordance with ASC 718.

Certain of our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in an executive health insurance program, which includes a fully insured plan and a secondary insured plan. Amounts reported represent the cost of the premiums paid on a Named Executive Officer’s behalf under these plans plus the additional costs of medical services rendered during the fiscal year. Named Executive Officers participating in this plan generally have until March 31, 2022 to submit their 2021 claims for reimbursement, and as a result, these amounts may increase. The maximum amount that may be reimbursed in any year under the secondary plan is $20,000.
(2)
Represents the aggregate incremental cost to Carnival Corporation & plc for travel on the Aircraft not related to company business. The aggregate incremental cost for the use of the Aircraft for personal travel is calculated by multiplying the hourly variable cost rate for the Aircraft used by the hours used. The hourly variable cost rate primarily includes fuel, airport handling and other fees, Aircraft repairs and maintenance, crew expenses and catering. The hourly variable cost rate is recomputed annually to reflect changes in costs. Fixed costs which do not change based on usage, such as pilots’ salaries, Aircraft depreciation and overhead costs, are excluded.
(3)
In connection with the reimbursement of over withheld taxes described in the “Transactions with Related Persons” section in the Proxy Statement for fiscal 2019, we reimbursed a portion of Mr. Thamm’s advisor fees ($46,943) incurred in connection with that transaction and provided an additional payment to cover taxes incurred related to the reimbursement ($50,176).
(4)
Includes the total amount of other benefits provided, none of which individually exceeded $25,000 or 10% of the total amount of benefits for the designated Named Executive Officer. These other benefits include accidental death and dismemberment insurance premiums, automobile repair and expenses, life and disability insurance premiums, tax planning and return preparation fees, personal transportation and spousal meals.
Additional information with respect to Carnival plc’s compensation and reimbursement practices during fiscal 2021 for Non-Executive Directors is included in
Part II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report, which is attached as Annex B to this Proxy Statement.

Messrs. Donald, Bernstein, Anderson, Miguez and Perez and other Carnival Corporation employees who are deemed highly compensated employees under IRS regulations are generally eligible to receive a matching contribution under the 401(k) Plan and are paid a profit-sharing contribution as additional cash compensation. The matching contribution is contributed to the 401(k) Plan by Carnival Corporation on behalf of these individuals, whereas the profit-sharing contribution is paid directly to these individuals as a cash bonus. Profit-sharing contributions were suspended during 2020 and matching contributions were suspended from June 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 for all Carnival Corporation employees. Employees hired after January 1, 2020 are also not eligible to participate in profit-sharing.
From January 1, 2021, Carnival Corporation matched 100% of employee deferrals up to 1% of eligible pay plus 50% of employee deferrals that exceed 1% of eligible pay but do not exceed 6% of eligible pay.
“Eligible pay” includes regular pay (before any pre-tax contributions from pay and taxes) and bonus. For matching and profit-sharing contributions, eligible pay does not include amounts in excess of the maximum compensation rate under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17).
The profit-sharing contributions are based upon eligible pay and years of service according to the following schedule:

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control
Each of our Named Executive Officers may be eligible to receive certain payments and benefits in connection with termination of employment under various circumstances. The potential benefits payable to our Named Executive Officers in the event of termination of employment under various scenarios on November 30, 2021 are described below.
In addition to benefits described below, our Named Executive Officers will be eligible to receive any
benefits accrued under Carnival Corporation & plc broad-based benefit plans, such as distributions under life insurance and disability benefits and accrued vacation pay, in accordance with those plans and policies. These benefits are generally available to all employees.
CASH SEVERANCE BENEFITS
It is the policy of the Compensation Committees for executive officers to have notice periods of not more than 12 months in duration. The Compensation Committees may make an exception to this practice where they believe doing so would be in the best interests of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc and their shareholders. The Compensation Committees will continue to consider the individual circumstances of each case taking account of best practice in the UK and the U.S. and the expected cost to Carnival Corporation & plc of any termination of an executive’s employment arrangements.
Accordingly, Messrs. Bernstein, Miguez and Perez have no employment agreements and no entitlement
to severance except for possible retention of unvested restricted share grants depending on the circumstances of their separation of employment discussed below.
Messrs. Donald, Anderson and Thamm are our only Named Executive Officers with employment agreements providing cash severance and other benefits. The table below details the various payments associated with certain termination events. Payment outcomes associated with the treatment of equity is detailed in the “Potential Value of Equity Grants upon Termination of Employment or Change of Control” section.

The terms of the Carnival Corporation 2011 Stock Plan and Carnival Corporation 2020 Stock Plan and the equity grant agreements applicable to participants generally provide that upon termination for death or disability, all unvested equity grants will immediately vest. The terms of the equity grants to Named Executive Officers made pursuant to the Carnival Corporation 2011 Stock Plan provide that if their employment is terminated without cause or they voluntarily terminate due to a diagnosis of a terminal medical condition, the MTE grants will continue to vest according to their original vesting schedule and remain subject to confidentiality and non-competition provisions. The SEA grants will also be retained if employment is terminated without cause. The RET, SPBS and STBS grants are forfeited upon termination for any reasons other than after a change of control. If the Named Executive Officers’ employment is terminated for any reason, the TBS grants will be forfeited. For the purposes of the agreement, “cause” is defined as any action or inaction which constitutes fraud, embezzlement, misappropriation, dishonesty, breach of trust, a felony or moral turpitude, as determined by the Boards of Directors.
Upon retirement, MTE and TBS, other than STBS grants made in 2020 and TBS grants made in 2021, grants continue to vest according to their terms as though employment had not ended; provided, however, that as each participant reaches retirement age, 50% of the grant will immediately vest, if such
participant becomes subject to tax obligations at that time. Retirement is defined as voluntary termination of an employee being at least 60 years of age with 15 years of service or at least 65 years of age with five years of service.

the consummation of a reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving Carnival Corporation that requires the approval of the shareholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in the transaction.
Upon involuntary termination within 12 months after a change of control, the restricted period on all
RSUs immediately expires. All of the equity grants made to participants, including our Named Executive Officers, contain clawback and forfeiture provisions in the event of a violation of confidentiality or non-compete provisions (which restrict them from competing with Carnival Corporation & plc for the remainder of the grant’s vesting period) or fraud or conduct contributing to any financial restatements or irregularities.
CARNIVAL PLC 2014 EMPLOYEE SHARE PLAN
Mr. Thamm is the only Named Executive Officer who received grants under the Carnival plc 2014 Employee Share Plan. He received MTE, PBS, RET and TBS grants under the Carnival plc 2014 Employee Share Plan. Mr. Thamm receives the same treatment under the plans as other participants generally except that if his employment is terminated without cause or he voluntarily terminates due to diagnosis of a terminal medical condition, all MTE grants will continue to vest according to their original vesting schedule and remain subject to confidentiality and non-competition provisions. All grants vest upon termination of employment for death or disability. Upon retirement, all MTE grants will continue to vest according to their terms as if the employment had not been terminated. Retirement is defined as voluntary termination of an employee being at least 60 years of age with 15 years of service or at least 65 years of age with five years of service. Upon involuntary termination within 12 months after a change of control, the restricted period on all RSUs immediately expires.
Change of control is defined to mean the occurrence of any of the following:

a person (either alone or together with any person acting in concert with him) obtaining control of Carnival plc as a result of a general offer or otherwise for the whole of the share capital of Carnival plc (other than those shares which are already owned by him and/or any person acting in concert with him);

the acquisition by any individual, entity or group of beneficial ownership of 50% or more of either:
(A)
the then outstanding shares of Carnival plc, or
(B)
the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of Carnival plc
entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, except that this provision does not apply to affiliated companies or members of the Arison family;

the incumbent Directors cease to constitute at least a majority of the Boards of Directors;

a person becoming bound or entitled to give notice under Sections 428 to 430F of the Companies Act to acquire shares;

a court directing that a meeting of the holders of shares be convened pursuant to Section 425 of the Companies Act for the purposes of considering a scheme of arrangement of Carnival plc or its amalgamation with any other company or companies and the scheme of arrangement being approved by the shareholders’ meeting or sanctioned by the court;

notice being duly given of a resolution for the voluntary winding-up of Carnival plc;

the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the business or assets of Carnival plc; or

the completion of a reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving Carnival plc that requires the approval of the shareholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in the transaction.
All of the equity grants made to our Named Executive Officers contain confidentiality and non-compete provisions that restrict them from competing with Carnival plc. If they breach either of these provisions, they will forfeit the right to receive all unvested and unreleased equity grants.

U.S. CEO PAY RATIO
U.S. CEO Pay Ratio
In accordance with SEC rules, we are providing the ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer to the annual total compensation of our median employee. The 2021 annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table is $15,063,788, the 2021 annual total compensation of our median compensated employee is $8,658, and the ratio of these amounts is 1,740 to 1. Our median compensated employee population consists of ship-based employees who work fewer than twelve months of the year.

Median employee, other than our CEO
8,658
This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our global human resources and payroll systems of record and the methodology described below. Because the SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.
To identify our median employee, we used total cash compensation for our estimated employee population of 64,988 as of September 30, 2021. Our workforce includes a large number of ship-based employees who typically work six to eleven months of the year and we did not annualize the pay for our employees when identifying our median. The number of employees relative to the prior year is higher because of an increase in the workforce for both our shore and ship-based employees as part of our resumption of guest cruise operations. This resulted in lower median compensation for fiscal 2021 and a higher ratio as compared to prior years. Of the employees returning to service in 2021, a large number are ship-based employees that returned to service shortly before or during the month of September 2021 for whom the pay received in 2021 is lower than what is ordinarily seen in a full year.
We then applied a valid statistical sampling methodology to identify employees who were paid within a 5% range of the median. From these employees, we then selected a subset of four employees whose pay were at the estimated median, identified a representative median employee from this group and calculated that employee’s annual total compensation in fiscal 2021 consistent with Item 402(c) of Regulation S-K. This figure includes gratuities directly billed to our guests but excludes any cash gratuities paid directly to the employee by guests. It also excludes room and meals, transportation to and from the ship, and medical care, which are provided to our ship-based employees without charge.

Re-Appointment of Auditors of Carnival plc and Ratification of Selection of Auditors of Carnival Corporation
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-pht_authoriza4c.jpg]
PROPOSAL 16
Authorization to Determine the Remuneration of Independent Auditors of Carnival plc
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Carnival plc has selected the UK firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Carnival plc’s independent auditors for the year ending November 30, 2022. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Carnival Corporation has selected the U.S. firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Carnival Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending November 30, 2022. At this time, we are unable to anticipate if representatives of both the U.S. and UK firms of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will be present at the Annual Meetings of Shareholders. If they attend, they will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and would be expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.
Proposal 15 would re-appoint the UK firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent auditors of Carnival plc until the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc. It is a requirement of Section 489(2) of the Companies Act
that Carnival plc appoint its independent auditors before the end of a general meeting at which its annual accounts and reports are laid (which occurs at its Annual General Meeting). Proposal 15 would also ratify the selection of the U.S. firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of Carnival Corporation.
Although ratification by our shareholders of the appointment of an independent public accounting firm of Carnival Corporation is not legally required, our Boards of Directors believe that such action is desirable. If our shareholders do not approve Proposal 15, the Audit Committees will consider the selection of another accounting firm for 2022 and future years.
Under Proposal 16, you are being asked to authorize the Audit Committee of Carnival plc to determine the remuneration of the UK firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as independent auditors of Carnival plc.

Report of the Audit Committees
[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-icon_tickboxko.gif]
The Boards of Directors unanimously recommend a vote FOR the re-appointment of the UK firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Carnival plc’s independent auditors for the 2022 fiscal year, the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Carnival Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year and the authorization of the Audit Committee of Carnival plc to determine the remuneration of the UK firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.
Report of the Audit Committees
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc are two separate legal entities and, therefore, each has a separate Board of Directors, each of which in turn has its own Audit Committee. In accordance with their charter, each Audit Committee assists the relevant Board of Directors in carrying out its oversight of:

the integrity of the relevant financial statements;

Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, other than requirements related to HESS;

the independent auditors’ qualifications and independence;

the performance of Carnival Corporation & plc’s internal audit functions and independent auditors;

relevant elements of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc’s risk management programs; and

risk management with respect to information technology operations, cybersecurity and data privacy.
Both Audit Committees are subject to the audit committee independence requirements under the corporate governance standards of the New York Stock Exchange and relevant SEC rules, and the Audit Committee of Carnival plc is also subject to the requirements of the UK Corporate Governance Code. The two Audit Committees have identical members and each currently consists of five independent (as defined by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, SEC rules and the UK Corporate Governance Code) Non-Executive Directors. The Carnival Corporation Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committees is both “independent” and an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by SEC rules and New York Stock Exchange listing standards. In addition, the Carnival plc Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committees has “recent and
relevant financial experience” for purposes of the UK Corporate Governance Code and that the Audit Committees as a whole have competence relevant to the sector in which Carnival Corporation & plc operate.
Management has primary responsibility for Carnival Corporation & plc’s financial reporting process, including their system of internal control, and for the preparation of consolidated financial statements. Carnival Corporation & plc’s independent auditor is responsible for performing an independent audit of those financial statements and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committees are responsible for monitoring and overseeing the financial reporting process and the preparation of consolidated financial statements and for supervising the relationship between Carnival Corporation & plc and its independent auditor, as well as reviewing the group’s systems of internal controls and compliance with the group Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Audit Committees have met and held discussions with management of Carnival Corporation & plc and the independent auditor. In this context, management represented to the Audit Committees that Carnival Corporation & plc’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that Carnival plc’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the UK Companies Act 2006 and the international financial reporting standards adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No. 1606/2002 as it applies in the European Union.

the year ended November 30, 2021 with Carnival Corporation & plc’s management and with Carnival Corporation & plc’s independent auditor;

reviewed and discussed Carnival plc’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2021 with Carnival plc’s management and with Carnival plc’s independent auditor;

discussed with Carnival Corporation & plc’s independent auditor the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and the UK Financial Reporting Council; and

received the written disclosures and the letter from Carnival Corporation & plc’s independent accountants required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the Audit Committees concerning independence and discussed with Carnival Corporation & plc’s independent auditor the independent auditors’ independence.
The Audit Committees also considered whether the provision to the relevant entity by the independent auditor of non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the independence of the independent auditor. Based on the reviews and discussions described above, the Audit Committees recommended to the Boards of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements of Carnival Corporation & plc be included in Carnival Corporation & plc’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021 for filing with the SEC.

Receipt of Accounts and Reports of Carnival plc
The Directors of Carnival plc are required by the Companies Act to present Carnival plc’s financial statements, the UK statutory Directors’ Report, the UK statutory Strategic Report and the auditors’ report relating to those accounts to the Carnival plc shareholders. Accordingly, the Directors of Carnival plc lay before the Annual Meetings of Shareholders the Carnival plc accounts and the reports of the Directors and auditors for the year ended November 30, 2021, which have been approved by and signed on behalf of Carnival plc’s Board of Directors and will be delivered to the Registrar of
Companies in the UK following the Annual Meetings of Shareholders. Shareholders are voting to approve receipt of these documents, as UK law does not require shareholder approval of the substance and content of these documents. The UK statutory Directors’ Report is attached as Annex A to this Proxy Statement and the UK statutory Strategic Report is included within the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements. The full accounts and reports of Carnival plc will be available for inspection prior to and during the Annual Meetings of Shareholders.

[MISSING IMAGE: tm2135540d1-pht_rights4c.jpg]
PROPOSAL 19
Approval of the Disapplication of Pre-Emption Rights Applicable to the Allotment of New Carnival plc Shares
SUMMARY
Proposal 18 authorizes the Directors of Carnival plc to issue, until the next Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc (or, if earlier, until the close of business on July 7, 2023), a maximum number of Carnival plc ordinary shares (or to grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into ordinary shares up to a maximum aggregate amount) without further shareholder approval. Proposal 19 authorizes the Directors of Carnival plc to issue (or sell any ordinary shares which Carnival plc elects to hold in treasury), until the next Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc (or, if earlier, until the close of business on July 7, 2023), a maximum number of Carnival plc ordinary
shares for cash without first offering them to existing shareholders in accordance with the pre-emption rights that would otherwise be applicable. As is the case with many UK companies, these resolutions are proposed each year as the Directors believe occasions may arise from time to time when it would be beneficial for shares to be allotted without shareholder approval and for shares to be allotted for cash without making a pre-emptive offer. The Carnival plc Directors have no current commitments or plans to allot additional shares of Carnival plc using these authorities.
DISCUSSION
Under Article 30 of the Articles of Association of Carnival plc, the Directors have, for a “prescribed period,” unconditional authority to allot ordinary shares in Carnival plc up to an aggregate nominal amount known as the “allotment amount.”
The power to implement the authority provided by Article 30 is sought each year by the proposal of an ordinary resolution to establish the prescribed period and the allotment amount. By passing this ordinary resolution, shareholders are authorizing the Board of Carnival plc to issue, during the prescribed period, a maximum number of shares having an aggregate
nominal value equal to the allotment amount, without further shareholder approval. In the absence of such approval, the issuance of any additional shares would require shareholder approval.
Under Article 31 of the Articles of Association of Carnival plc, the Directors have, for the same “prescribed period” referred to above, power to allot a small number of ordinary shares for cash without making a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders, up to an aggregate nominal amount known as the “disapplication amount.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Other Proposals
PROPOSALS 18 & 19―AUTHORITY TO ALLOT NEW CARNIVAL PLC SHARES AND DISAPPLICATION OF PRE-EMPTION RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO SUCH ALLOTMENT
The power to implement the authority provided by Article 31 is sought each year by the proposal of a special resolution to establish the disapplication amount. By passing this special resolution, shareholders are authorizing the Board of Carnival plc to issue, during the prescribed period, an amount of shares having an aggregate nominal value equal to the disapplication amount, for cash without first offering them to existing shareholders of Carnival plc.
The Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Carnival Corporation do not contain equivalent provisions and holders of Carnival Corporation common stock do not have pre-emption rights. Accordingly, no action is required in respect of the ability of Carnival Corporation to allot shares or to disapply pre-emption rights.
In common with many UK companies, resolutions to renew the prescribed period and re-establish the allotment amount and the disapplication amount are normally proposed each year as the Directors believe occasions may arise from time to time when it would be beneficial for shares to be allotted and for shares to be allotted for cash without making a pre-emptive offer. This is the purpose of Proposal 18 (an ordinary resolution) and Proposal 19 (a special resolution). As usual, the prescribed period is the period from the passing of the resolutions until the next Annual General Meeting (or, if earlier, until the close of business on July 7, 2023).
Guidelines issued by the Investment Association, whose members are some of the largest institutional investors in UK listed companies, require the allotment amount to be limited to one-third of the issued ordinary share capital (except in the case of a rights issue). By reference to Carnival plc’s issued ordinary share capital on January 13, 2022, the maximum allotment amount in paragraph (a) of Proposal 18 is $102,371,049, which is equal to 61,669,307 new Carnival plc ordinary shares, being one-third of the amount of the issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares).
In line with guidance issued by the Investment Association, paragraph (b) of Proposal 18 would give the Directors of Carnival plc authority to allot ordinary shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into ordinary shares in connection with a rights issue in favor of ordinary shareholders up
to an aggregate nominal amount equal to $204,742,097 (representing 123,338,613 (ordinary shares), as reduced by the nominal amount of any shares issued under paragraph (a) of Proposal 18. This amount (before any reduction) represents approximately two-thirds of the issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares) of Carnival plc as at January 13, 2022. However, if they do exercise the authorities given to them if Proposals 18 and 19 are passed, the Directors intend to follow the Investment Association’s recommendations concerning their use (including as regards the Directors standing for election or re-election in certain cases).
Guidelines issued by the Pre-Emption Group, a group comprising representatives of UK listed companies, investment institutions and corporate finance practitioners and formed under the support of the London Stock Exchange to monitor the operation of the Guidelines, recommend that a resolution to disapply the statutory pre-emption rights provided by UK company law should be limited to an amount of equity securities not exceeding 5% of the nominal value of the company’s issued ordinary share capital. By reference to Carnival plc’s issued ordinary share capital on January 13, 2022, the maximum disapplication amount is $15,355,657, which is equal to 9,250,396 new Carnival plc ordinary shares. In respect of this aggregate nominal amount, the Directors of Carnival plc confirm their intention to follow the provisions of the Pre-Emption Group’s Statement of Principles regarding cumulative usage of authorities within a rolling three-year period where the Principles provide that usage in excess of 7.5% should not take place without prior consultation with shareholders.
In summary, if Proposals 18 and 19 were passed, the extent of the authority of the Directors to allot new Carnival plc ordinary shares for cash on terms which would be dilutive to the existing shareholdings of Carnival plc shareholders, without shareholder approval, would be limited to 9,250,396 new Carnival plc ordinary shares, being 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of Carnival plc at January 13, 2022. The Directors have no current commitments or plans to allot additional shares of Carnival plc under these authorities. Furthermore, the adoption of Proposals 18 and 19 would have no material effect on the ability

We have a program that allow us to obtain an economic benefit when Carnival Corporation common stock is trading at a premium to the price of Carnival plc ordinary shares (the “Stock Swap Program”). In the event Carnival Corporation common stock trades at a premium to Carnival plc ordinary shares, we may elect to sell shares of Carnival Corporation common stock, at prevailing market prices in ordinary brokers’ transactions and repurchase an equivalent number of Carnival plc ordinary shares in the UK market. In the future, we may also re-introduce a program that allows
us to obtain an economic benefit when Carnival plc ordinary shares are trading at a premium to Carnival Corporation common shares.
Any realized economic benefit under the Stock Swap Program is used for general corporate purposes.
In June 2021 the Boards of Directors have authorized us to sell up to $500 million of Carnival Corporation common stock in the U.S. market and repurchase up to $500 million of Carnival plc ordinary shares in the UK market as part of the Stock Swap Program.
As of January 13, 2022, 32,355,831 Carnival plc ordinary shares are held by Carnival plc in treasury.

Proposal 20—Approval of a General Authority to Buy Back Carnival plc Ordinary Shares
[MISSING IMAGE: tm224633d1-pht_genteral4c.jpg]
PROPOSAL 20
Approval of a General Authority to Buy Back Carnival plc Ordinary Shares
Shareholder approval is not required for us to buy back shares of Carnival Corporation, but is required under the Companies Act for us to buy back shares of Carnival plc. Accordingly, last year Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc sought and obtained shareholder approval to effect market purchases of up to 18,383,016 ordinary shares of Carnival plc (being approximately 10% of Carnival plc’s ordinary shares in issue). That approval expires on the earlier of:
(i)
the conclusion of Carnival plc’s 2022 Annual General Meeting; or
(ii)
October 19, 2022.
Shareholder approval to effect market purchases (within the meaning of Section 693(4) of the Companies Act) once the current authorization expires of up to 18,500,792 ordinary shares of Carnival plc (being 10% of Carnival plc’s ordinary shares in issue as of January 13, 2022) is being sought at this year’s Annual Meetings of Shareholders. Since last year’s Annual Meetings of Shareholders and through January 13, 2022, no Carnival plc ordinary shares have been purchased under that authority and 8,930,004 Carnival plc ordinary shares were purchased under the Stock Swap Program. Carnival Corporation & plc will treat any such purchases made by Carnival Corporation or Carnival Investments Limited under the Stock Swap Programs as if they were made by Carnival plc under the Carnival plc share buyback authority.
The Boards of Directors confirm that the authority to purchase Carnival plc’s shares under the Stock Swap Program will only be exercised after careful consideration of prevailing market conditions and the position of Carnival plc. In particular, the program will only proceed if we believe that it is in the best interests of Carnival Corporation, Carnival plc and their shareholders generally. The Boards of Directors are making no recommendation as to whether
shareholders should sell any shares in Carnival plc and/or Carnival Corporation.
If the Boards of Directors exercise the authority conferred by Proposal 20, we would have the option of holding the shares in treasury, or cancelling them. Shares held in treasury can be re-sold for cash, used for employee share plans or later cancelled. The Boards of Directors think it prudent to maintain discretion as to dealing with the purchased shares. As of January 13, 2022, 32,355,831 Carnival plc ordinary shares are held by Carnival plc in treasury.
The Boards of Directors consider that any buyback of Carnival plc ordinary shares may include the purchase of its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing one Carnival plc ordinary share, with a subsequent cancellation of the underlying ADSs. If the underlying ADSs are so cancelled, Carnival plc will either cancel or hold in treasury the ordinary share represented by such ADSs.
The minimum price (exclusive of expenses) which may be paid for each Carnival plc ordinary share is $1.66, and the maximum price which may be paid is an amount (exclusive of expenses) equal to the higher of:

105% of the average middle market quotations for an ordinary share, as derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List, for the five business days immediately preceding the day on which such ordinary share is contracted to be purchased; and

the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the London Stock Exchange at the time the purchase is carried out.

[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
HOW DOES THE DLC ARRANGEMENT AFFECT MY VOTING RIGHTS?
On most matters that affect all of the shareholders of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, the shareholders of both companies effectively vote together as a single decision-making body. These matters are called “joint electorate actions.” Combined voting is accomplished through the special voting shares that have been issued by each company. Certain matters specified in the organizational documents of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc
where the interests of the two shareholder bodies may diverge are called “class rights actions.” The class rights actions are 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. All of the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meetings of Shareholders are joint electorate actions, and there are no class rights actions.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
GENERALLY, WHAT ACTIONS ARE JOINT ELECTORATE ACTIONS?
Any resolution to approve an action other than a class rights action or a procedural resolution (described below) is designated as a joint electorate action. The actions designated as joint electorate actions include:

the appointment, removal, election or re-election of any Director of either or both companies;

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

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

a change of name by either or both companies; and

the implementation of a mandatory exchange of Carnival plc ordinary shares for Carnival Corporation common stock based on a change in tax laws, rules or regulations.
The relative voting rights of Carnival plc ordinary shares and Carnival Corporation common stock are equalized based on a ratio which we refer to as the “equalization ratio.” Based on the current equalization ratio of 1:1, each share of Carnival Corporation common stock has the same voting rights as one Carnival plc ordinary share on joint electorate actions.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
HOW ARE JOINT ELECTORATE ACTIONS VOTED ON?
Joint electorate actions are vote on as follows:

Carnival plc shareholders vote at the Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc (whether in person or by proxy). Voting is on a poll (or ballot), which remains open for sufficient time to allow the vote at the Carnival Corporation Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held and reflected in the Carnival plc Annual General Meeting through the mechanism of the special voting share. An equivalent vote is cast at the subsequent Carnival Corporation Annual Meeting of Shareholders on each of the corresponding resolutions through a special voting share issued by Carnival Corporation; and

Carnival Corporation shareholders vote at the Carnival Corporation Annual Meeting of Shareholders (whether in person or by proxy).
Voting is by ballot (or on a poll), which remains open for sufficient time to allow the vote at the Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc Shareholders to be reflected in the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders through the mechanism of the special voting share. An equivalent vote is cast on the corresponding resolutions at the Carnival plc Annual General Meeting through a special voting share issued by Carnival plc.
A joint electorate action is approved if it is approved by:

a simple majority of the votes cast in the case of an ordinary resolution (or not less than 75% of the votes cast in the case of a special resolution, if required by applicable law and regulations or
80 | CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT

Questions Applicable to All Shareholders
Carnival plc’s Articles of Association) by the holders of Carnival plc’s ordinary shares and the holder of the Carnival plc special voting share voting as a single class at a meeting at which a quorum was present and acting;

a simple majority of the votes cast (or other majority if required by applicable law and regulations or the Carnival Corporation Articles of Incorporation and By-laws) by the holders of Carnival Corporation common stock and the holder
of the Carnival Corporation special voting share, voting as a single class at a meeting which a quorum was present and acting; and

a minimum of one-third of the total votes available to be voted by the combined shareholders must be cast on each resolution for it to be effective. Formal abstentions (or votes withheld) by a shareholder on a resolution will be counted as having been “cast” for this purpose.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
HOW ARE THE DIRECTORS OF EACH COMPANY ELECTED OR RE-ELECTED?
Resolutions relating to the election or re-election of Directors are considered as joint electorate actions. No person may be a member of the Board of Directors of Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc without also being a member of the Board of Directors of the other company. There are 12 nominees for re-election to the Board of Directors of each company this year. Each nominee currently serves as a Director of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc. All nominees for Director are to be re-elected to serve until the next Annual Meetings of Shareholders and until their successors are elected.
Carnival plc’s Articles of Association currently require Directors to submit themselves for election by shareholders at the first Annual General Meeting following their initial appointment to the Board of Directors and for re-election thereafter at subsequent Annual General Meetings at intervals of no more than three years. The Boards of Directors have decided, in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, to submit all Directors for re-election on an annual basis.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WHAT VOTES ARE REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE PROPOSALS?
Proposals
Vote Required

Proposals 1 through 18 will be proposed as ordinary resolutions.
For ordinary resolutions, the required majority is more than 50% of the combined votes cast at this meeting and the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders.

Proposals 19 and 20 will be proposed as special resolutions.
For special resolutions, the required majority is not less than 75% of the combined votes cast at this meeting and the Annual Meeting Carnival Corporation Shareholders.
Proposals 19 and 20 are required to be approved by not less than 75% of the combined votes cast at both Annual Meetings of Shareholders. Each of the other proposals, including the re-election of Directors, requires the approval of a majority of the combined votes cast at both Annual Meetings of Shareholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not deemed votes cast for purposes of calculating the vote. Abstentions and broker non-votes do count for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present.
If you are a beneficial owner of Carnival Corporation common stock and do not provide the shareholder of
record with voting instructions, your shares may constitute broker non-votes.
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:

the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner; and

the broker lacks discretionary voting power to vote such shares.
Accordingly, if you are a beneficial owner of shares held through intermediaries such as brokers, banks

and Proposal 20 (general authority for Carnival plc to buy back Carnival plc ordinary shares) are considered “routine,” and therefore, brokers are permitted to vote on these proposals without receiving voting instructions from you. On each of the other proposals, Proposals 1-12 (the re-election of Directors), Proposal 13 (the approval of the fiscal 2021 compensation of our Named Executive Officers) and Proposal 14 (approval of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report), your broker, bank or other nominee will not be permitted to vote your shares without receiving voting instructions from you.

GENERALLY, WHAT ARE PROCEDURAL RESOLUTIONS?
Procedural resolutions are resolutions of a procedural or technical nature that do not adversely affect the
shareholders of the other company in any material respect and are put to the shareholders at a meeting.
82 | CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC 2022 PROXY STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Questions and Answers
Questions Applicable to All Shareholders
The special voting shares do not represent any votes on “procedural resolutions.” The Chair of each of the meetings will determine whether a resolution is a procedural resolution.
To the extent that such matters require the approval of the shareholders of either company, 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.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WHERE CAN I FIND THE VOTING RESULTS OF THE ANNUAL MEETINGS
OF SHAREHOLDERS?
The voting results will be announced to the media and the relevant stock exchanges and posted on our website at www.carnivalcorp.com and www.carnivalplc.com, after both Annual Meetings of
Shareholders have closed. The results will also be published in a joint current report on Form 8-K within four business days after the date the Annual Meetings of Shareholders have closed.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WHAT IS THE QUORUM REQUIREMENT FOR THE ANNUAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS?
The quorum requirement for holding the Annual Meetings of Shareholders and transacting business as joint electorate actions at the meetings is one-third of the total votes capable of being cast by all
shareholders of both companies. Shareholders may be present in person or represented by proxy or corporate representative at the meetings.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
HOW IS THE QUORUM DETERMINED?
For the purposes of determining a quorum with respect to joint electorate actions, the special voting shares have the maximum number of votes attached to them as were cast on such joint electorate actions, either for, against or abstained, at the parallel shareholder meeting of the other company, and such maximum number of votes (including abstentions) constitutes shares entitled to vote and present for the purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at such a meeting.
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 special voting entities must be present.
Abstentions (including votes withheld) and broker non-votes are counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

MAY I PROPOSE ACTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION AT NEXT YEAR’S ANNUAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS?
Carnival Corporation shareholders and Carnival plc shareholders (to the extent permitted under Carnival Corporation’s and Carnival plc’s governing documents and U.S. and UK law, as applicable) may submit proposals for consideration at future shareholder meetings.
In order for shareholder proposals to be considered for inclusion in our Proxy Statement in accordance with SEC Rule 14a-8 for next year’s Annual Meetings of Shareholders, the written proposals must be received by our Company Secretary no later than the close of business October 18, 2022. Such proposals will need to comply with applicable SEC regulations regarding the inclusion of shareholder proposals in
proxy materials. Carnival Corporation’s By-laws establish advance notice procedures with regard to shareholder proposals that are not submitted for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, but that shareholders instead wish to present directly at an Annual Meeting of Shareholders. To be properly brought before the Annual Meetings of Shareholders, a notice of the proposal must be submitted to our Company Secretary at our headquarters no later than six weeks prior to the Annual Meetings of Shareholders or, if later, the time at which the notice of such meeting is publicly disclosed. For shareholders of Carnival plc, the same requirements apply under UK law requirements to submit a notice of a proposal.

WHAT CARNIVAL CORPORATION SHARES OWNED BY ME CAN BE VOTED?
All Carnival Corporation shares owned by you as of February 7, 2022, the record date, may be voted by you. These shares include those:

held directly in your name as the shareholder of record, including shares purchased through Carnival
Corporation’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan and its Employee Stock Purchase Plan; and

held for you as the beneficial owner through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WILL I BE ASKED TO VOTE AT THE CARNIVAL PLC ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING?
No. Your vote at the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders, for the purposes of determining the outcome of combined voting, is automatically reflected as appropriate at the parallel
Annual General Meeting of Carnival plc Shareholders through the mechanism of the special voting share issued by Carnival plc.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WHY DID I RECEIVE A ONE-PAGE NOTICE IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS INSTEAD OF A FULL SET OF PROXY MATERIALS?
Carnival Corporation is taking advantage of SEC rules that allow it to deliver proxy materials over the Internet. Under these rules, Carnival Corporation is sending its shareholders a one-page notice regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials (the “Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials”) instead of a full set of proxy materials, unless they previously requested to receive printed copies. You
will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless you specifically request them. Instead, this notice tells you how to access and review on the Internet all the important information contained in the proxy materials. This notice also tells you how to submit your proxy card on the Internet and how to request to receive a printed copy of the proxy materials.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOLDING SHARES AS A SHAREHOLDER OF RECORD AND AS A BENEFICIAL OWNER?
Most of the shareholders of Carnival Corporation 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.

BENEFICIAL OWNER

If your shares are registered directly in your name with Carnival Corporation’s transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services LLC, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record, and the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or set of printed proxy materials, as applicable, 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 Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders.

If you request a paper copy of the proxy materials as indicated in the notice, Carnival Corporation will provide a proxy card for you to use.

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 under street name, and the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or set of printed proxy materials, as applicable, is 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 Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders.

However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the meeting unless you obtain a signed proxy from the record holder giving you the right to vote the shares.

If you request a paper copy of the proxy materials as indicated in the notice, your broker or nominee will provide a voting instruction card for you to use.

HOW CAN I VOTE MY CARNIVAL CORPORATION SHARES IN PERSON AT THE MEETING?
Shares held directly in your name as the shareholder of record may be voted in person at the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders in the U.S. If you choose to do so, please bring your proxy card and proof of identification.
Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders, 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 under 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 instructions provided by your broker or nominee.
Please also refer to the sections entitled “Meeting Admission Requirements” and “Safety and Security Measures” included in the “Information about Attending the Annual Meetings” section preceding the Notice of Annual Meeting for additional information.

HOW CAN I VOTE MY CARNIVAL CORPORATION SHARES WITHOUT ATTENDING THE ANNUAL MEETING OF CARNIVAL CORPORATION SHAREHOLDERS?
Whether you hold shares directly as the shareholder of record or beneficially under street name, you may direct your vote without attending the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares held under street name, by submitting voting instructions to your broker or nominee. For shareholders of record, you may do this by voting on the Internet or by
telephone by following the instructions in the notice you received in the mail. Where your shares are held under street name, in most instances you will be able to do this over the Internet or by telephone by following the instructions in the notice you received in the mail, or if you received a full printed set of proxy materials in the mail, by mail. Please refer to the voting instruction card included by your broker or nominee.

CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE?
Yes. You may change your proxy instruction at any time prior to the vote at the Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders. 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 Annual Meeting of Carnival Corporation Shareholders 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.
[MISSING IMAGE: lg_redflag-4c.jpg]
WHAT DOES IT MEAN IF I RECEIVE MORE THAN ONE NOTICE OF INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS OR SET OF PRINTED PROXY MATERIALS, AS APPLICABLE?
It means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one account. Please follow the
instructions in each notice to ensure all of your shares are voted.

HOW DO I REQUEST ADDITIONAL COPIES OF THE PROXY MATERIALS?

Annex A―Carnival plc Directors’ Report
Carnival plc and Carnival Corporation are separate legal entities (together referred to as “Carnival Corporation & plc”) and each company has its own Board of Directors and Committees of the Board. However, as is required by the agreements governing the dual listed company (“DLC”) arrangement, there is a single senior management team and the Boards of Directors and members of the Committees of the Boards are identical. This Directors’ Report has been prepared and presented in accordance with and in reliance upon UK company law and, accordingly, the liabilities of the Directors in connection with this Directors’ Report shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions provided by such law.
In accordance with the UK Financial Conduct Authority’s Listing Rules, the information to be included in the Annual Report and Accounts, where applicable, under Listing Rule 9.8.4, is set out in this
Directors’ Report, with the exception of the details regarding interest capitalized, which are set out in the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements, and the details of long-term incentive schemes, which are set out in the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report. Information regarding future developments of the business and business model of Carnival Corporation & plc can be found in following sections of the Carnival plc Strategic Report that accompanies the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements (the “Strategic Report”): 1.A.II Recent Developments, 1.A.III Visions, Goals and Related Strategies and 1.C. Our Global Cruise Business. The financial risk management objectives and policies and exposure to foreign currency risk, fair value risk, cash flow interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk can be found in Note 24 to the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements.
DIVIDENDS
During the year ended November 30, 2021, Carnival plc did not pay any dividends (2020—$1.00 per share). On March 30, 2020, the Boards suspended future
dividends. Accordingly, no dividends have been paid or are proposed in respect of fiscal 2022.
SHARE CAPITAL AND CONTROL
Changes in the share capital of Carnival plc during fiscal 2021 are given in Note 17 to the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements.
The share capital of Carnival plc at January 13, 2022 includes two allotted and issued subscriber shares of £1 each, 50,000 allotted but unissued redeemable preference shares of £1 each, one allotted and issued special voting share of £1 and 185,007,921 allotted and issued ordinary shares of  $1.66 each. The subscriber shares carry no voting rights and no right to receive any dividend or any amount paid on a return of capital. The redeemable preference shares carry no voting rights, but are entitled to payment of a cumulative preferential fixed dividend of eight percent per annum on the amount paid up on each such share that is in issue. On a return of capital on a winding up or otherwise, the redeemable preference
shares rank behind the ordinary shares but ahead of any other class of shares, and are entitled to receive payment of the amount paid up or credited as paid up on each such share. Redeemable preference shares which are fully paid may be redeemed at any time at the election of the holder or of the company, in which case the amount payable on redemption is the amount credited as paid up on each share which is redeemed, together with all arrears and accruals of the preferential dividend.
Details of restricted stock units granted to employees are given in Note 20 to the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements.
The Articles of Association of Carnival plc contain provisions which, in certain circumstances, would have the effect of preventing a shareholder (or a group

SHARE CAPITAL AND CONTROL
of shareholders acting in concert) from holding or exercising the voting rights attributable to shares in Carnival plc which are acquired by them. These provisions would have effect if a shareholder (or a group of shareholders acting in concert) were to acquire ordinary shares in Carnival plc with the result that the total voting rights exercisable by that shareholder or group of shareholders on matters put to a vote as joint electorate actions under the DLC arrangement would exceed 30 percent of the total voting rights exercisable in respect of any joint electorate action. They would also have effect if a shareholder (or group of shareholders acting in concert) already holding between 30 percent and 50 percent of the total voting rights exercisable in respect of any joint electorate action were to acquire shares in Carnival plc and thereby increase the percentage of voting rights so held. In each such case, the percentage of voting rights held is determined after taking into account voting rights attributable to shares of Carnival Corporation common stock held by such shareholder (or group of shareholders) and also taking into account the effect of the equalization ratio which gives effect to common voting by the shareholders of Carnival plc and Carnival Corporation on joint electorate actions under the DLC arrangement.
Under the relevant provisions of the Articles of Association of Carnival plc (articles 277 to 287) shares which are acquired by a person and which trigger the thresholds referred to in the foregoing paragraph may be sold at the direction of the Board, and the proceeds remitted to the acquiring shareholder, net of any costs incurred by Carnival plc. Pending such sale any dividends paid in respect of such shares would be paid to a charitable trust, and the trustee of such trust would be entitled to exercise the voting rights attaching to the shares. The restrictions summarized in the preceding paragraphs would not apply in the case of an acquisition of shares that is made in conjunction with a takeover offer for Carnival plc, which is announced in accordance with the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, for so long as that offer has not lapsed or been withdrawn. However, if such a takeover offer is not made, or lapses or is withdrawn, the restrictions will apply in respect of any acquired shares.
The foregoing is a summary only of the relevant provisions of the Articles of Association of Carnival plc, and for a complete understanding of their effect, shareholders are recommended to refer to the Articles of Association themselves. A copy of the Articles of Association of Carnival plc is available at Carnival plc’s website at www.carnivalplc.com or upon request from the Company Secretary, 3655 N.W. 87th Avenue, Miami, Florida 33178, United States.
There are nine significant agreements to which Carnival plc is a party, which may be altered or terminated in the event of a change of control as follows:

the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Carnival Corporation to a third party; or
(3)
a person or group (other than certain members of the Arison family or trusts related to them) becoming the beneficial owners of more than 50% of the rights to vote to elect the members of the Boards of Directors of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc.
ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
The Articles of Association of Carnival plc may be amended by the passing of a special resolution of the shareholders. In common with many other corporate actions that might be undertaken by Carnival plc, such a resolution would be proposed as a joint electorate
action on which the shareholders of Carnival plc and of Carnival Corporation effectively vote as a single unified body, as contemplated by the DLC arrangement.
PURCHASE OF OWN SHARES
In June 2021, the Boards of Directors authorized us to sell up to $500 million of Carnival Corporation common stock in the U.S. market and repurchase up to $500 million of Carnival plc ordinary shares in the UK as part of the Stock Swap Program. The Stock Swap Program allows us to realize a net cash benefit when Carnival Corporation common stock is trading at a premium to the price of Carnival plc ordinary shares. Under the Stock Swap Program, we may elect to offer and sell shares of Carnival Corporation common stock, at prevailing market prices in ordinary brokers’ transactions and repurchase an equivalent number of Carnival plc ordinary shares in the UK market. Carnival Corporation repurchased 8,930,004 Carnival plc ordinary shares with a nominal value of $14,823,807, representing 5.94% of the called-up share capital of Carnival plc (which does not include the disenfranchised shares held by Carnival Corporation) as of January 13, 2022, for aggregate consideration of  $186,510,449 from November 30, 2020 through January 13, 2022 under the Stock Swap Program. The Stock Swap program does not have an expiration date and may be discontinued by us at any time or upon achieving the authorized repurchase amount.
Shareholder approval is not required to buy back shares of Carnival Corporation, but is required under the UK Companies Act 2006 to buy back shares of Carnival plc. At the Annual General Meetings held on April 17, 2021, the authority for Carnival plc to buy back its own shares was approved. This authority enabled Carnival plc to buy back up to 18,383,016 ordinary shares of Carnival plc (being approximately 10 percent of Carnival plc’s ordinary shares in issue). Under that authority, 8,930,004 Carnival plc ordinary shares have been purchased through January 13, 2022. That approval expires on the earlier of:

the conclusion of Carnival plc’s 2022 Annual General Meeting; or

October 19, 2022.
Carnival Corporation & plc treats any such purchases made by Carnival Corporation under the Stock Swap Program as if they were made by Carnival plc under the Carnival plc buyback authority.

We strive to be a company that people want to work for and to be an exemplary global corporate citizen. Our commitment and actions to keep our guests and crew members safe and comfortable, protect the environment, develop and provide opportunities for our workforce, strengthen stakeholder relations and enhance both the communities where we work as well as the port communities that our ships visit, are reflective of our brands’ core values and vital to our success as a business enterprise.

The HESS Committees and our management team review all significant risks or exposures and associated mitigating actions. Each of the Group Chief Executive Officers, each brands’ President, the Chief Maritime Officer and senior maritime representatives attend the meetings of the HESS Committees.
In addition, Carnival Corporation & plc’s HESS Policy describes our commitments to:

protecting the health, safety and security of our passengers, guests, employees and all others working on our behalf, thereby promoting an organization that strives to be free of injuries, illness and loss;

protecting the environment, including the marine environment in which our vessels sail and the communities in which we operate, striving to prevent adverse environmental consequences and using resources efficiently and sustainably;

CORPORATE AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
The Boards of Directors of Carnival Corporation & plc have also established Board-level Compliance Committees comprised of six independent Directors. The principal function of the Compliance Committees is to assist with the Boards’ oversight of our ethics and compliance program.
Carnival Corporation & plc recognizes our responsibility to provide industry leadership and to
conduct our business as a responsible global citizen.
Our corporate leadership is manifested in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which requires that every employee and member of the Boards use sound judgment, maintain high ethical standards and demonstrate honesty in all business dealings.

Risk Advisory & Assurance Services (“RAAS”) is Carnival Corporation & plc’s internal audit department and is headed by the Chief Audit Officer, who reports directly to the Chairs of the Audit and HESS Committees. The Chief Audit Officer also has a “dotted” reporting line to the Chief Operations Officer. RAAS conducts annual HESS audits of each brand’s head office and of each ship in our fleet. These audits are in addition to the audits performed by third-party certification and regulatory auditors.
Each RAAS HESS audit is organized and planned to:

verify compliance with applicable rules, corporate standards, brand policies and procedures, regulations, codes and guidance directly involved in the safe conduct of ship operations;

verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the shipboard and shore-side HESS management systems; and

Carnival Corporation & plc has long been committed to operating responsibly. We believe that sustainability is about preserving our environment, respecting our employees and the communities where we do business and returning value to our shareholders. We voluntarily publish Sustainability Reports that address governance, stakeholder engagement, environmental, labor, human rights, society, product responsibility, economic and other sustainability-related issues and performance indicators. These
reports, which are not incorporated in this document, can be viewed at www.carnivalcorp.com, www.carnivalplc.com and www.carnivalsustainability.com, were developed in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (“GRI”) Standards, the global standard for sustainability reporting.

For the year ended November 30, 2022, we will include disclosures consistent with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) in the Strategic Report and where disclosures are not consistent with some or all of the TCFD’s recommendations, we will include an explanation and a description of any steps we are taking, as needed. We voluntarily reported our progress to date consistent with TCFD in our 2020 Sustainability Report and we are working to identify where we need to improve or change our processes to enhance our disclosures. Further information on the progress to date and the areas of enhancement across the TCFD thematic areas is available in the Strategic Report.
As part of our sustainability strategy, we have voluntarily reported our carbon footprint via the CDP (formerly, the Carbon Disclosure Project) each year since 2006. The CDP rates companies on the depth and scope of their disclosures and the quality of their reporting. We have developed a greenhouse gas inventory management plan in 2010 in accordance with the requirements of International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) 14064-1:2006 standard and The Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Our submission includes details of our most recently compiled emissions data and reduction efforts, along with the results of an independent, third-party verification of our greenhouse gas emissions inventory.

offsets. To achieve this aspiration, we are partnering with key organizations to help identify and scale new technologies not yet ready for the cruise industry. We believe our scale will support our effort to lead the industry in climate action. The company’s carbon emissions reduction efforts include improvements in energy efficiency, integrating alternative fuels and investing in new technologies such as batteries and fuel cells.
As part of our plan for carbon footprint reduction, we lead the cruise industry’s use of LNG powered cruise ships with a total of 11 next-generation cruise ships that are expected to join the fleet through 2025, including four ships already in operation as of November 30, 2021. In total, these ships are expected to represent 20% of our total future capacity. LNG vessels generate up to 20% less carbon emissions than traditionally powered ships, while almost eliminating sulfur oxides, reducing nitrogen oxides by 85% and particulate matter by 95%-100%. While fossil fuels are currently the only viable option for our industry, we are closely monitoring technology developments and partnering with key organizations on research and development to support our
carbon emission reduction goals. For example, we are partnering to evaluate and pilot maritime scale battery technology and methanol powered fuel cells and working with classification societies and other stakeholders to assess lower carbon fuel options for cruise ships including hydrogen, methanol, eLNG, and biofuels. We also pioneered the use of Advanced Air Quality Systems on board our ships to aid in the reduction of sulfur emissions and are promoting the use of shore power, enabling ships to use shoreside electric power where available while in port.
Following the achievement of our 2020 sustainability goals ahead of schedule in 2019, we have established new sustainability goals for 2030 and aspirations for 2050 as part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and compliance throughout our global operations. These new goals incorporate six key focus areas listed below that align with elements of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals and build on the momentum of our successful achievement of our 2020 sustainability goals. A key focus of our sustainability efforts is climate action which includes our commitment to reduce carbon emissions.

Since the pause in guest cruise operations, we have accelerated our capacity optimization strategy, which includes the removal of less efficient ships from our fleet. This strategy, together with our ongoing ship newbuild program, which includes the delivery of more efficient ships, and the natural retirement of less efficient ships has been and will continue to be a factor in our expected ability to achieve our 2030 carbon intensity reduction goal. Furthermore, we have
invested over $350 million in energy efficiency improvements since 2016 and expect to continue to make similar investments as part of our plan to achieve our 2030 sustainability goals.
In addition to the 2030 sustainability goals, we have announced a number of 2050 aspirations, including our aspiration to achieve net carbon-neutral ship operations by 2050.

The CO2e conversion factors were adjusted in May 2021 following a review of the latest studies from outside sources. The 2020 and 2021 greenhouse gas emissions were calculated using the adjusted CO2e conversion factors.
Greenhouse gas emissions data collection and calculations were performed in accordance with our greenhouse gas inventory management plan, the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, emission factors from the International Energy Agency, International Maritime Organization and ISO 14064-3:2006 standard. Ship fuel emissions represent over 95% of our total global emissions. UK ship fuel emissions represent over 94% of their total emissions. Total emissions include both scope 1 and scope 2 combined.
Scope 1 emissions include direct emissions from the combustion of ship fuel, inadvertent release of ship refrigerants, and other direct emissions generated by sources owned or controlled by Carnival Corporation & plc (global number as per above table) as well as ships operated and facilities owned and leased by our UK-based and marketed brands—P&O Cruises (UK number as per above table) and Cunard (UK number as per above table).
Scope 2 emissions include emissions from the consumption of electricity for facilities and ships as well as heat or steam purchased by sources owned or controlled by Carnival Corporation & plc (global
number as per above table) as well as ships operated and facilities owned and leased by our UK-based and marketed brands—P&O Cruises (UK) and Cunard (UK number as per above table).
We measure and report the ship fuel greenhouse gas emission rate in terms of grams of CO2e per ALB-Km. This indicator enables us to make meaningful greenhouse gas emission reduction comparisons that take into account changes in fleet size, itineraries and passenger capacity during normal operations. Due to the pause in guest cruise operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the fiscal 2020 and 2021 rates are not meaningful as there was a considerable reduction in the number of kilometers traveled.

Annex A―Carnival plc Directors’ Report
Statement of Directors’ Responsibilities
Statement of Directors’ Responsibilities
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report, the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the Directors have prepared the group and company financial statements in accordance with international financial accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the UK Companies Act 2006. Additionally, the Financial Conduct Authority’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules require the Directors to prepare the group financial statements in accordance with international financial reporting standards adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No. 1606/2002 as it applies in the European Union (“IFRS”). Under company law, the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of Carnival plc and the Carnival plc group and of the net income of the Carnival plc group for that period.
In preparing the financial statements the Directors are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether international financial accounting standards in conformity with the UK Companies Act 2006 and applicable IFRS have been followed for the group financial statements and international financial accounting standards in conformity with the UK Companies Act 2006 have been followed for the company financial statements, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

prepare the group and parent company financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the group and company will continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain Carnival plc’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of Carnival plc and the Carnival plc group and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements and the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report comply with the UK Companies Act 2006.
The Directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of Carnival plc and the Carnival plc group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Carnival Corporation & plc is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on its website. Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Each of the Directors, whose names and functions are listed in the Proxy Statement, confirms that, to the best of his or her knowledge:

the Carnival plc group and company financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and loss of the Carnival plc group and company; and

the Carnival plc Directors’ Report attached as Annex A to the Proxy Statement and the Strategic Report includes a fair view of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Carnival plc group and company, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that it faces.
The Directors consider that the Annual Report and Accounts taken as a whole, are fair, balanced and understandable and provide the information necessary for the shareholders of Carnival plc to assess the position and performance, business model and strategy of the Carnival plc group and company.

Annex B―Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report (Part II)
Certain information required to be included in the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report is set forth in Part I (which is also known as the Compensation Discussion and Analysis) and in the “Director Compensation” and “Compensation Tables” sections of the Notice of Annual Meetings and Proxy Statement to which this Report is annexed (the “Proxy Statement”). The Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the relevant parts of the Proxy Statement should be read in conjunction with this Part II.
As explained in Part I, Parts I and II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report form part of the Carnival plc Annual Report for the year ended November 30, 2021. Carnival plc and Carnival Corporation are separate legal entities (together referred to as “Carnival Corporation & plc”) and each company has its own Board of Directors and Compensation Committee. However, as required by the agreements governing the dual listed company (“DLC”) arrangement, there is a single management team and the Boards of Directors and members of the
Committees of the Boards are identical. Accordingly, consistent with prior years, we have included remuneration paid by Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc in the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report. The Directors are primarily paid by Carnival Corporation as part of the DLC arrangement.
Both Parts I and II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report are in compliance with Schedule 8 of the LMCG Regulations and the UK Corporate Governance Code, the UK Companies Act 2006 and the Listing Rules of the FCA. In particular, our executive compensation program takes into account the principles outlined in Provision 40 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, as set forth in Parts I and Part II of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report.
The Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report is subject to an advisory (non-binding) vote at the 2022 Annual General Meeting. Section A of this Part II is the Implementation Section, which contains the disclosures in respect of the actual pay outcomes for fiscal 2021.

Statement by Randall J. Weisenburger, Chair of the Compensation Committees
The major decisions on Directors’ remuneration and the changes on Directors’ remuneration during the year (and the context for these decisions and changes) are summarized in the “Executive Summary” section in Part I of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report.
Our pay practices are consistent with best and established market practice provisions in the U.S. where, for example it is not common to defer the release of long-term incentive grants following their vesting or to require executives to maintain a shareholding following their departure from the
group. The Compensation Committees have considered the potential implications of adopting such developments in UK practice since the last policy review and concluded that it would both unnecessarily place Carnival Corporation & plc at a competitive disadvantage to other large U.S. headquartered companies and that the corresponding increase in the overall quantum of pay required to offset the diminution in the packages arising from such provisions would not be in the interests of shareholders. The Compensation Committees will keep such matters and, in particular, whether they become more prevalent in the U.S. under review.

2.1   IMPLEMENTATION OF APPROVED POLICY
The Directors’ Remuneration Policy (the “2020 Policy”) was approved by the Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on April 6, 2020. The 2020 Policy will be operated by Carnival Corporation & plc until a new Directors’ Remuneration Policy, which is expected to be proposed no later than the 2023 Annual General Meeting. The 2020 Policy is included within Annex B of the 2020 Notice of Annual Meetings of Shareholders and Proxy Statement, which is available on our website at www.carnivalcorp.com and
www.carnivalplc.com. The Compensation Committees have regard to the UK Corporate Governance Code and are satisfied that the 2020 Policy supports the long-term success of Carnival Corporation & plc and include due regard to corporate and social responsibility issues and to managing risk within the group.
During the year, the following actions were taken for 2021 or anticipated for fiscal 2022 when implementing the 2020 Policy:

The annual bonus program is referred to as the Management Incentive Plan. Details of the performance measures and targets for Mr. Donald’s annual bonus in respect of fiscal 2021 are included in the “Annual Bonuses” section in Part I. The timing of business recovery made it impractical to develop financial operating performance goals for fiscal 2021. Instead, the key performance measures included areas of focus such as cash management, return to service, compliance and culture and environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors that were evaluated qualitatively at year end by the Compensation Committees.
Mr. Arison does not participate in our performance-based annual bonus program.
Annual bonus for Executive Directors who served throughout fiscal 2021 were as follows:

Mr. Donald
$6,000,000

Mr. Arison

Fiscal 2022 Annual Bonus―Performance measures and targets (not audited)
The timing of business recovery makes it impractical to develop financial operating performance goals. For fiscal 2022, the key performance measure will be areas of focus including ESG imperatives and key business resumption and recovery factors that will be evaluated qualitatively at year end by the Compensation Committees. The expectation is to revert to a substantially quantitative performance-based incentive program in 2023, with pre-defined metrics and goal levels consistent with the process set out in the “Annual Bonuses” section in Part I. The performance measures for fiscal 2022 will be disclosed at the end of the performance period in the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report for fiscal 2022, as the Boards consider them strategic and commercially sensitive to disclose at this time.
For fiscal 2022, Mr. Donald’s target bonus remained unchanged at $3,000,000 (with the maximum possible bonus being 200% of this level).
Mr. Arison does not participate in our performance-based annual bonus program.
As reported in the “Annual Bonuses” section in Part I, the annual bonus program includes clawback features that will require participants to reimburse us for all or a portion of payments received under the program in the case of a participant’s wrongdoing that results in a material restatement of our financial statements.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION
Long-Term Incentive Compensation in Fiscal 2021 (unaudited)
Descriptions of the share grants made to Mr. Donald during fiscal 2021 and their vesting conditions are set out in the “Equity-Based Compensation” section in Part I. The share grants made to Mr. Donald during fiscal 2021 is disclosed in “Share Plan Grants Made to Directors in Fiscal 2021” table below, which is audited. No long-term incentive compensation was made to Mr. Arison in fiscal 2021.
In consideration of the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and our pause in guest operations, the Compensation Committees approved time-based share (“TBS”) grants for fiscal 2021 in line with the powers under the shareholder-approved Directors’ Remuneration Policy. The Compensation Committees acknowledged the inability to set meaningful or realistic long-term financial goals in the current business environment. The Compensation Committees granted Mr. Donald 356,959 Carnival Corporation shares in the form of TBS grants with a value of  $7,449,735 based on the $20.87 closing price of a share on January 19, 2021, the date of grant, which vest pro-rata over three years on the respective anniversary dates of the grant.
The 2019 performance-based share (“PBS”) grant made to Mr. Donald in January 2019 reached the end of the performance period at the end of fiscal 2021. The PBS grant will vest and restrictions will lapse on February 15, 2022. Details of the 2019 PBS grant performance targets and results are set out in the “Disclosure of Prior Years’ Equity Grant Results” section in Part I.
Long-Term Incentive Compensation in Fiscal 2022 (not audited)
All long-term incentive compensation for fiscal 2022 for Mr. Donald will return to be 100% at risk and performance based. The management incentive plan-tied equity (“MTE”) target grant will have a value of  $2 million, the PBS target grant will have a value of  $3.5 million and the one-time long-term incentive target grant will have a value of  $12 million.
The monetary amounts referred to for the MTE and PBS are subject to pre-grant performance conditions tied to the Management Incentive Plan that will be applied to the target value at the end of fiscal 2022 to determine MTE and PBS grant value recommendations for grants to be submitted for approval by the Compensation Committees in fiscal 2023. Once approved in 2023, grants will be made as a number of restricted share units using the share price at the date of grant. As explained in the “Equity-Based Compensation” section in Part I, grants are calculated by reference to the value of shares to facilitate external comparisons and also comparison to other forms of compensation.
The one-time long-term incentive grant to be approved for fiscal 2022 will be subject to performance conditions which the Compensation Committees will set at the time the program is approved. The target value of  $12 million will be split in two equal parts. The first part will take the form of a share-based grant and the second part will be in the form of cash. The precise metrics for the one-time long-term incentive grant have not been finalized as of the date of the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report, but may be based on qualitative or quantitative measures in line with performance measures used in the past, which may include financial, ESG or other metrics, with the performance measures, targets and maximums set shortly prior to approval of the programs. These performance measures will be disclosed in the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report for fiscal 2022 as the Boards consider them strategic and commercially sensitive.
No long-term incentive compensation will be made to Mr. Arison in fiscal 2022.

STOCK OWNERSHIP POLICY
Stock Ownership Policy (audited)
A description of the stock ownership policy applicable to Non-Executive Directors is set out in the “Director Compensation” section of the Proxy Statement. New Directors must achieve this requirement no later than five years from the date of their initial election to the Boards by the shareholders. Other than Mr. Gearhart (initially elected in 2021), each of the Non-Executive Directors serving in 2021 has already achieved this Board-mandated requirement.
2.2   SERVICE CONTRACTS (NOT AUDITED)
Because Directors, other than Mr. Donald, do not have formal agreements, it is not feasible to include a table with the unexpired terms. Mr. Donald’s terms are summarized in the Proxy Statement. As explained more fully in the Proxy Statement, Mr. Donald would generally receive an amount equal to one times his base salary and target bonus upon termination.
Non-Executive Directors are appointed under terms set out in a letter of appointment. They do not have service contracts and their appointments can be terminated (by the Boards) without any compensation on termination. However, they may retain their share grants (if they have already served for at least one year) and may receive a departing gift of up to $25,000 in value.
2.3   COMPENSATION COMMITTEES (NOT AUDITED)
The membership of the Compensation Committees during the year consisted of four members who are deemed independent by the Boards of Directors:

Randall J. Weisenburger (Chair);

Helen Deeble;

Richard J. Glasier; and

Laura Weil.
The members of the Compensation Committees are appointed by the Boards based on the recommendations of the Nominating & Governance Committees. Further details regarding the Compensation Committees (including the number of meetings of the Compensation Committees held in fiscal 2021 and the attendance of the members at such meetings) can be found in the Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report attached as Annex C to the Proxy Statement.
Details of the Compensation Committees’ process for making compensation determinations, including the advice provided by internal colleagues and external advisors are set out in the “Process for Making Compensation Determinations” section in Part I. As stated in Part I, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc.
(together with its UK affiliated firm, FIT Remuneration Consultants LLP, which is a member of the Remuneration Consultants Group, the UK professional body, and complies with its code of conduct) were appointed by the Compensation Committees as their external advisors. The advisors were appointed following a tender process and are subject to an ongoing periodic review by the Compensation Committees of their independence and quality. They provide no other services to Carnival Corporation & plc and, accordingly, are considered independent by the Compensation Committees and to provide objective advice.
Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. and FIT Remuneration Consultants LLP have each provided their written consent to the form and content of their references in the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report and the Proxy Statement.
Fees paid to the Compensation Committees’ external advisors in fiscal 2021 were $316,901 to Frederick W. Cook & Co., Inc. and $9,938 to FIT Remuneration Consultants LLP, such fees being charged on these firms’ standard terms of business for advice provided.

2.7   UK CEO PAY RATIO (NOT AUDITED)
In line with UK reporting requirements to which Carnival plc became subject in fiscal 2020, set out below are ratios which compare the total remuneration of our Chief Executive Officer (as included in the Single Figure Table in Section 2.9) to the remuneration of the 25th, 50th and 75th percentile of UK employees of Carnival plc and its subsidiaries. The disclosure will build up over time to cover a rolling 10-year period.

424:1
Fiscal 2020
Option A
184:1

58:1
The pay ratios have been calculated using Option A as we consider this the most straight-forward approach from the options available in the LMCG Regulations and is consistent with the information and methodology used in determining the U.S. CEO Pay Ratio disclosed in the Proxy Statement. Option A requires the calculation and ranking, from lowest to highest, of the pay and benefits of UK employees for the relevant fiscal year, in order to identify those at the 25th, 50th and 75th percentiles.
The base salary and total remuneration received during the fiscal 2021 year by the indicative employees as of September 30, 2021 on a full-time equivalent basis used in the above analysis are set out below:
25th Percentile

50th Percentile (median)

The figures above include gratuities directly billed to our guests, if applicable, but excludes any cash gratuities that may be paid directly to an employee by guests. It also excludes room and meals, transportation to and from the ship, and medical care, which are provided to our crew members without charge.
Factors influencing this year’s result include the return to service of a large number of ship-board personnel and shoreside personnel, the hire of replacement employees and the 2021 pay outcome for the Chief Executive

Officer. Our initial disclosure in fiscal 2020 was made in respect of a highly unusual business environment. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we faced staff and pay reductions as well as CEO compensation results that were lower than pre-COVID levels. These circumstances contribute to the difference in ratios as between fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021.
The UK CEO Pay Ratio is likely to vary, potentially significantly, over time since it will be driven largely by variable pay outcomes for the Chief Executive Officer and changes in our ship-based employee population as we resume cruise operations over time. As a result, and depending on our performance and employee population, the UK CEO Pay Ratio could increase or decrease significantly in future fiscal years. For the reasons described above, the median ratio may not be representative of our pay and progression policies.

Profit distributed by way of dividend taken as dividends declared set out in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity in the Carnival Corporation & plc 2021 joint Annual Report on Form 10-K and profit distributed by way of share buyback returned to shareholders taken as purchases of treasury stock in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity. The Stock Swap Program is not treated as constituting a share buyback for the purposes of this graph.

Overall expenditure on pay has been calculated on a broadly consistent approach to the standard UK approach to calculating this amount and includes all global staff using normal accounting conventions for benefits and includes expected value assumptions in respect of share grants and so is not consistent with methodologies used elsewhere in this Part II.

The estimated PBS value was calculated using the $22.99 average share price over the last three months of the fiscal year. There was no share price appreciation with respect to the 2019 PBS grant. The amount for 2020 has been updated to include the release date values and dividend reinvestment in respect of the 2018 PBS grant.
(4)
Represents TBS grants for fiscal 2021. TBS grant value was calculated using the January 19, 2021 closing price of Carnival Corporation shares. TBS grants vest on a three-year pro-rata basis on January 19 of 2022, 2023 and 2024.

2.11   DIRECTORS’ SHAREHOLDING AND SHARE INTERESTS (AUDITED)
Details of Carnival Corporation & plc’s stock ownership requirements for Executive Directors are set out in the “Stock Ownership Requirements” section in Part I. Messrs. Arison and Donald comply with the policy, which require each of them to own Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc shares with a value equivalent to six times his salary.
The stock ownership policy for Non-Executive Directors provides that all Non-Executive Directors are required to own shares (inclusive of unreleased restricted stock, RSUs and shares in a trust beneficially owned by the Director) of either Carnival Corporation
common stock or Carnival plc ordinary shares with a value equal to five times the cash retainer. New Directors must achieve this requirement no later than five years from the date of their initial election to the Boards by the shareholders. Other than Ms. Lahey (initially elected in 2019) and Mr. Gearhart (initially elected in 2021), each of the Non-Executive Directors has already achieved this Board-mandated requirement.

For consistency with the “Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” section of the Proxy Statement, the above table includes restricted stock (but not RSUs) held.
**
As part of the establishment of the DLC arrangement, Carnival plc issued a special voting share to Carnival Corporation, which transferred such share to the trustee of the P&O Princess Special Voting Trust (the “Trust”), a trust established under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Shares of beneficial interest in the Trust were transferred to Carnival Corporation. The trust shares represent a beneficial interest in the Carnival plc special voting share. Immediately following the transfer, Carnival Corporation distributed such trust shares by way of a dividend to holders of shares of common stock of Carnival Corporation. Under a pairing agreement, the trust shares are paired with, and evidenced by, certificates representing shares of Carnival Corporation common stock on a one-for-one basis. In addition, under the pairing agreement, when a share of Carnival Corporation common stock is issued to a person after the implementation of the DLC arrangement, a paired trust share will be issued at the same time to such person. Each share of Carnival Corporation common stock and the paired trust share may not be transferred separately. Each share of Carnival Corporation common stock and the paired plc special voting share are listed and trade together on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “CCL.” Accordingly, each holder of Carnival Corporation common stock is also deemed to be the beneficial owner of an equivalent number of trust shares.

2.12   TOTAL PENSION ENTITLEMENTS (AUDITED)
Mr. Arison continues to have a benefit under the Carnival Corporation Nonqualified Retirement Plan for Highly Compensated Employees (the “Retirement Plan”). Mr. Arison’s benefits under the Retirement Plan were calculated based on age, length of service with Carnival Corporation and the average of his five highest consecutive years of compensation out of the last 10 years of service. The benefit formula provides an annual benefit accrual equal to 1% of his earnings for the year up to “covered compensation” plus 1.6% of earnings for the year in excess of covered compensation then multiplied by his years of service up to a maximum of 30 years of credited
service. The elements of compensation to determine his benefits were his base salary and annual bonus up to the U.S. statutory limitations under Section 401(a)(17) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Mr. Arison’s accrued benefit was fully paid out in March 2020. It is not expected that Mr. Arison will accrue any additional benefits under the Retirement Plan under the terms of the program. Mr. Donald is not eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan.
Details of the retirement benefits of current Directors arising from their participation in defined benefit pension arrangements are as follows:

Annex C―Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report
Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc (together referred to as “Carnival Corporation & plc”) operate under a dual listed company (“DLC”) arrangement with primary listings in the U.S. and the UK. Accordingly, Carnival Corporation & plc has implemented a single corporate governance framework consistent, to the extent possible, with the governance practices and requirements of both countries. Where there are
customs or practices that differ between the two countries, Carnival Corporation & plc has nonetheless sought to be compliant with UK best practices whenever possible. Carnival Corporation & plc believes that their resulting corporate governance framework effectively addresses the corporate governance requirements of both the U.S. and the UK.
Corporate Governance Guidelines
Carnival Corporation & plc has adopted corporate governance guidelines (the “Guidelines”) that set forth the general governance principles approved by the Boards of Directors. The Guidelines are available on Carnival Corporation & plc’s website and are summarized as follows:

A majority of the members of each of the Boards must be independent in accordance with the corporate governance rules applicable to companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange.

The Boards will each have at all times the following: Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Compliance Committee, Health, Environmental, Safety & Security (“HESS”) Committee and Nominating & Governance Committee (collectively, the “Committees”). All the members of the Committees will be independent Directors under the criteria applicable to companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the London Stock Exchange and any other applicable regulatory requirements. Each of these Committees has its own written charter, which principally sets forth the purposes, goals and responsibilities of the Committees.

The Nominating & Governance Committees will review with the Boards, on an annual basis, the requisite skills and characteristics of new Board members, as well as the composition of the Boards as a whole. The Nominating & Governance Committees will assess and recommend Board candidates for appointment as Directors.

The responsibilities of the Directors are laid out in the Guidelines and cover matters such as the Directors’ duties to Carnival Corporation & plc and its shareholders, attendance at meetings and the annual review of Carnival Corporation & plc’s long-term strategic plans and the principal issues that Carnival Corporation & plc may face in the future.

The Non-Executive Directors shall appoint a Senior Independent Director to preside at meetings of the Non-Executive Directors and at Board meetings in the absence of the Chair, and to serve as the principal liaison for Non-Executive Directors.

Directors have free and full access to officers and employees of Carnival Corporation & plc, to the advice and services of the Company Secretary to the Boards and to independent professional advice at the expense of Carnival Corporation & plc.

The Compensation Committees will recommend the form and amount of Director and senior executive compensation in accordance with the policies and principles set forth in their charter and conduct an annual review thereof. In particular, the Compensation Committees will annually review the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and his performance to enable the Chief Executive Officer to provide strong leadership for Carnival Corporation & plc in the short and long-term.

The Boards and the Nominating & Governance Committees are responsible for Chief Executive Officer and board succession planning.

Annex C―Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report
Board Composition

The Nominating & Governance Committees will maintain orientation programs for new Directors and continuing education programs for all Directors.

The Boards will conduct an annual performance evaluation to determine whether they, their Committees and individual Directors are functioning effectively.

The Non-Executive Directors will meet at least annually under the direction of the Senior Independent Director to conduct an appraisal of the Chair’s performance.

All shareholders may communicate with the Boards by addressing all communications to the Company Secretary, who must forward any item requiring immediate attention to the Senior
Independent Director, who must in turn notify the Boards of any matters for discussion or action as appropriate.
Carnival Corporation & plc monitors governance developments in the U.S. and the UK to support a vigorous and effective corporate governance framework.
Set out below is a statement of how Carnival Corporation & plc has applied the main principles of the UK Corporate Governance Code during the year ended November 30, 2021. A copy of the UK Corporate Governance Code is available on the website of the UK Financial Reporting Council (“FRC”) at www.frc.org.uk.
Board Composition
Each of the Boards of Directors is currently comprised of 12 members, of which two are Executive Directors and 10 are Non-Executive Directors. Each nominee for re-election to the Boards has served for the full year. All Directors are required to submit themselves for annual re-election. The biographical details of the members of the Boards standing for re-election and their qualifications to serve as Board and Committee members are contained in the Proxy Statement. All Directors elected in 2021 have been subject to a formal performance evaluation during the year, as described below.
As of the date of this Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report, 25% of the members of the
Boards are women (being three of 12 members). We had met our prior goal to achieve 33% of the members of the Boards being women, until a woman member stepped down in January 2020 just prior to the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our guest cruise operations. The Nominating & Governance Committees are in the process of engaging a search firm to assist them in identifying women Board candidates so that we can again achieve the goal of at least 33% of the Boards being women.
The Boards currently meet the Parker Review recommendation of having at least one ethnic minority director by 2021.
Board Balance and Independence
As part of the Boards’ annual independence assessment, each Director was required to complete an independence questionnaire. All questionnaires were reviewed and assessed by the full Board. Following this review, all of the ten nominees for re-election as Non-Executive Directors are considered by the Boards to be independent in accordance with the corporate governance rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the UK Corporate Governance Code. Sir Jonathon Band, Richard J. Glasier, Sir John Parker, Stuart Subotnick, Laura Weil and Randall J. Weisenburger have been Non-Executive Directors for more than nine years from the date of their first election to the Boards. However, notwithstanding
this fact, the Boards have determined that each of those Directors is independent for the reasons set forth below.
Consistent with U.S. practice, the Boards believe that length of tenure should be only one of the factors considered with respect to the independence of Directors and, accordingly, that tenure alone should not result in the loss of independence. The Boards believe that automatic loss of independence status for Directors due to tenure would effectively operate as a term limit for independent Directors and result in the loss of the valuable contributions of Directors who have been able to develop, over time, increasing

Directors’ Indemnities
insight into Carnival Corporation & plc and its operations. The Boards prefer to rely on rigorous annual evaluations of individual Directors to review their objectivity and independence, as well as their overall effectiveness as Directors. All Directors are also subject to annual re-election by shareholders following individual evaluations and recommendations by the Nominating & Governance Committees. Mr. Arison has been Chair of the Board of
Directors of Carnival plc since 2003 and previously served as Chief Executive Officer of Carnival plc from 2003 to 2013. His unique experience and in-depth knowledge of our business, our history and the cruise industry continue to be invaluable. Mr. Arison has made and continues to make substantial contributions to our success and the Boards have concluded that his continued service as our Chair is in our best interests and that of our shareholders.
Directors’ Indemnities
As at the date of this Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report, indemnities are in force under which Carnival Corporation & plc has agreed to indemnify the Directors of Carnival Corporation & plc, to the extent permitted by law and the Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Carnival Corporation and the Articles of Association of
Carnival plc, in respect of all losses arising out of, or in connection with, the execution of their powers, duties and responsibilities, as Directors of Carnival plc. Carnival Corporation & plc maintains insurance to indemnify the Directors when it is unable to do so due to insolvency or as a result of a derivative suit.
Board Procedures and Responsibilities
Meetings of the Boards are held on a regular basis to enable the Boards to properly discharge their responsibilities. During the year ended November 30, 2021, the Board of Directors of Carnival plc held a total of 16 meetings. All Board meetings during the year were attended by the full Board except for Sir Jonathon Band and Sir John Parker who attended 15 of 16 meetings. In addition, the Non-Executive Directors meet periodically during the year with the Chair of the Boards with no other Executive Directors present. The agenda for each Board meeting and meeting schedules are prepared by the Chair and reviewed and approved by the Senior Independent Director, to enable the flow of relevant information to the Boards. Each Board member is entitled to suggest
the inclusion of items on the agenda and to raise at any Board meetings subjects that are not on the agenda for that meeting.
Non-Executive Directors are required to allocate sufficient time to meet the expectations of their role. The consent of the Chair and the Senior Independent Director must be sought before accepting additional directorships that might affect the time a Non-Executive Director of Carnival Corporation & plc is able to devote to that role.
The Boards have resolved that Executive Directors may not serve as a Non-Executive Board member on more than one FTSE 100 or Fortune 100 company nor as the Chair of such a company.
Board Structures and Delegation to Management
The basic responsibility of the Directors is to exercise their business judgment in the way they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of Carnival Corporation & plc and for the benefit of the shareholders as a whole. Further details of the responsibilities of the Directors are set out in the Guidelines. The Boards have a formal schedule of matters specifically reserved to them for decision, which includes the approval of the following matters, when and if the Boards decide to consider them:

annual, interim and quarterly results and financial statements;

dividends;

significant changes in accounting policy;

material acquisitions and disposals;

material agreements;

major capital expenditures;

annual operating plans;

Details of the Committees of the Boards are set out in the section below. In addition, any matters reserved for the Boards that arise between formal Board meetings that need to be resolved are delegated to an Executive Committee, comprising two Executive Directors and a Non-Executive Director.
The strategic management and direction of, and significant commercial decisions in relation to, global operations of Carnival Corporation & plc, except to the extent reserved to the full Boards under their schedule of reserved matters, is delegated by the
Boards to the Boards of subsidiary companies within the group and to management committees of the Boards, which in turn delegate to local management as appropriate.
The Boards of Directors, through executive management and the Committees, have carried out a robust assessment to ensure that principal and emerging risks, including those that would threaten its business model, future performance, solvency or liquidity are effectively managed and/or mitigated to help ensure Carnival Corporation & plc is viable. As a result of this assessment, the Boards of Directors have identified principal and emerging risks and their management and/or mitigation which are listed in Item 4 Risk Management and/or Mitigation of Principal and Emerging Risks in the Carnival plc Strategic Report that accompanies the Carnival plc consolidated IFRS financial statements (the “Strategic Report”).
Committees of the Boards
The following Committees have operated throughout the year. Each Committee has a written charter, copies of which can be found on Carnival Corporation & plc’s website at www.carnivalcorp.com
and www.carnivalplc.com. The Board Committees regularly report on their activities and actions to the full Boards.
AUDIT COMMITTEES
The Audit Committees are comprised of the following four independent Non-Executive Directors:

The qualifications of each member of the Audit Committees are contained in the Proxy Statement.
During the year, nine meetings of the Carnival plc Audit Committee were held, which were attended by
all incumbent members.

to comply with the UK Corporate Governance Code requirements, which are only applicable to Carnival plc.
In fiscal 2021 the Carnival plc Audit Committee carried out a robust assessment and developed a thorough understanding of the significant areas of
Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report | C-7

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Annex C―Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report
Carnival plc Supplement to the Report of the Audit Committees
accounting judgments and the related estimates. The significant areas of accounting judgments and the related estimates considered by the Carnival plc Audit Committee and discussed with the Carnival plc external auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), for fiscal 2021 are included in the Strategic Report for fiscal 2021.
In addition, risks of fraud in relation to revenue recognition was an area of focus for the Carnival plc Audit Committee and discussed with PwC in 2021. The Audit Committee considered the presumed risks of fraud as defined by auditing standards and was satisfied that there were no significant issues.
EXTERNAL AUDITORS AND AUDIT TENDERING
The Audit Committees have the responsibility for making a recommendation on the appointment, reappointment and removal of the external auditors. PwC was recommended by the Audit Committees for reappointment as auditors of Carnival plc at the Annual General Meeting held in April 2021, and reappointment was approved by the shareholders. The Audit Committees also reappointed PwC as Carnival Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm, as ratified by the shareholders at the April 2021 Annual General Meeting. In addition, the policy of the Audit Committees is to undertake a formal assessment of the auditor’s objectivity and independence each year, which includes:

a review of non-audit services provided and related fees;

discussion with the auditors pertaining to a written report detailing all relationships with Carnival Corporation & plc and any other party that could affect the independence or the objectivity of the auditors; and

evaluation with the Boards and management of the effectiveness of the external audit process.
PwC has served as Carnival Corporation’s independent auditor from at least 1986 to 2002. In 2003, following formation of the DLC arrangement between Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, the independent audits for the consolidated entity, Carnival Corporation & plc, and Carnival plc were tendered. Upon completion of this tender process, the Audit Committees decided to recommend to the shareholders that PwC be appointed as the Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc independent auditors for fiscal 2003. The Audit Committees annually evaluate PwC’s performance and have each year recommended that the shareholders vote for the reappointment of PwC as Carnival plc’s independent auditors.
Our reasons for recommending that PwC be appointed Carnival plc’s auditor for 2022 are as follows:

PwC is one of the largest independent audit firms in the world. In addition, PwC is uniquely qualified because they are the auditors of the three largest public cruise companies in the world. As such, it has an exceptional level of understanding of the cruise industry, the significant accounting principles used by it and the economic environment in which it operates.

Carnival Corporation & plc has periodically undertaken internal surveys to confirm PwC’s qualifications and performance, the quality and candor of their communication with the Audit Committees and management and their independence, objectivity and professional skepticism. The results of these surveys have supported the Audit Committees’ and management’s recommendations to appoint PwC as the independent auditors of Carnival Corporation & plc and Carnival plc.

PwC’s lead audit engagement partner for Carnival Corporation & plc and the engagement partner for Carnival plc are rotated from the engagement at least every five years. The PwC engagement partners working on subsidiaries are rotated from these engagements at least every seven years or in the case of significant EU subsidiaries, for the periods beginning on or after June 17, 2016, the engagement partners have been rotated at least every five years. The Audit Committees actively participate in the selection of the lead audit engagement partners. The Audit Committees and management believe the partner rotations support an independent auditor view of our operations and provide fresh insights into the audit processes.

The Audit Committees meet regularly with PwC in executive sessions, where management is not

Carnival plc Supplement to the Report of the Audit Committees
present. These executive sessions, which are not required under UK or U.S. regulations, further support PwC’s independence from management.

The Audit Committees’ Key Policies and Procedures establish a framework to monitor and maintain PwC’s independence. These Key Policies and Procedures require, among other things, pre-approval from the Audit Committees for audit and permissible non-audit services prior to the performance of any such services in accordance with UK and U.S. regulations. The Audit Committees only approve services to be provided by PwC that are consistent with these regulations, which helps to support auditor independence.

The communication between the Audit Committees and PwC has been timely and informative, which has assisted the Audit Committees in the performance of their oversight responsibilities.

The Audit Committees and management believe that PwC has performed the audits of Carnival Corporation & plc and Carnival plc with proper professional skepticism and demonstrated the necessary knowledge, experience and skills to meet their audit requirements.

Based on the review and analysis of audit fees of comparable public companies, the Audit Committees and management believe the PwC audit fees are competitive.
The Audit Committees continue to be confident that the effectiveness and independence of the external auditors is not impaired in any way. There are no contractual restrictions on the choice of external auditor and, therefore, a resolution proposing the reappointment of PwC as external auditors will be put to the Carnival plc shareholders at the 2022 Annual General Meeting.
The fees payable to PwC in respect of the audit and non-audit services provided to Carnival plc during
fiscal 2021 were $1.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The policy on Audit Committee pre-approval and permissible non-audit work of the independent auditors, are set out in the “Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm,” section of the Proxy Statement, which is incorporated by reference into this Carnival plc Corporate Governance Report.
Carnival plc is also subject to UK regulations regarding this matter. The relevant UK legislation (the Statutory Auditors and Third Country Auditors Regulations 2016) requires statutory auditors to rotate after a period of 20 years and include a mandatory competitive tender of audit firms at the 10-year midpoint. The Competition and Market Authority’s (“CMA”) Statutory Audit Services for Large Companies Market Investigation (Mandatory Use of Competitive Tender Processes and Audit Committee Responsibilities) Order 2014 (the “CMA Order”) also set out transitional rules that determine the latest date for the initial rotation or tender process. PwC has been Carnival plc’s auditor since fiscal 2003, so the transitional rules state that they may not be reappointed more than nine years after June 2014, effectively meaning that the audit firm must be changed for the fiscal 2024 audit at the latest.
As a result, the Audit Committees currently intend to tender the independent audits for the consolidated entity, Carnival Corporation & plc, and Carnival plc in 2022 for the 2024 audits in order to ensure the independence of the selected transitioning firm. The plans to tender earlier than 2022 were deferred due to the ongoing effects of COVID-19 on our operations and our need to focus on our top priorities.
The CMA Order applies to FTSE 350 companies. Carnival plc confirms that it complied with the provisions of the CMA Order in fiscal 2021.
FRC Review
In November 2021, Carnival plc received a letter from the FRC informing Carnival plc that it had carried out a review of Carnival plc’s Annual Report and IFRS Financial Statements for the period ending November 30, 2020 and that it had a number of questions to assist the FRC in understanding how Carnival plc had satisfied its reporting requirements.
Carnival plc is in the process of providing responses to the FRC’s questions. In parallel, we have taken steps to enhance the disclosures, most notably regarding climate change risk disclosures and the impact on financial forecasts, alternative performance measures and accounting for foreign exchange and those enhancements have been included in Carnival plc’s

Information and Professional Development
Information and Professional Development
The Company Secretary is required to provide members of the Boards with appropriate information in advance of each meeting and Directors are required to devote adequate preparation time reviewing this information in advance of each meeting. The Company Secretary is also responsible for advising the Boards through the Chair on all corporate governance matters.
All Directors have access to the advice and services of the Company Secretary and are permitted to obtain independent professional advice, at Carnival
Corporation & plc’s expense, as he or she may deem necessary to discharge his or her responsibilities as a Director. A Director is required to inform the Senior Independent Director of his or her intention to do so.
All Directors are offered the opportunity to attend training programs of their choice. The subject matter and content of such programs are reviewed periodically during the year. In addition, the Directors participated in multiple compliance and culture training sessions from experts in the field.
Board Performance Evaluations
During fiscal 2021, the Nominating & Governance Committees conducted performance evaluations of the Boards, the Boards’ Committees and the members of our Boards of Directors. The performance review of Micky Arison, in his role as Chair, was conducted separately by the Non-Executive Directors, led by the Senior Independent Director, Randall J. Weisenburger, taking into account the view of the other Executive Director. As part of the Boards’ evaluation exercise, each Director was required to complete a questionnaire about the performance of the Boards and their Committees. All questionnaires were reviewed and assessed by the Nominating & Governance Committees.
In addition, the Nominating & Governance Committees reviewed the individual performance of each Director focusing on his or her contribution to Carnival Corporation & plc, and specifically focusing on areas of potential improvement. In making their assessment, the Nominating & Governance Committees reviewed considerations of age, diversity, experience and skills in the context of the needs of the Boards, and with the aim of achieving an appropriate balance on the Boards.
The Nominating & Governance Committees also discussed and reviewed with Non-Executive Directors any significant time commitments they have with other companies or organizations. In addition, the number of directorships held by Non-Executive Directors was taken into account, in line with Carnival Corporation & plc’s policy on limiting multiple appointments.
In October 2021, the Nominating & Governance Committees reported the results of the reviews to the Boards, concluding that each Director was an effective member of the Boards and had sufficient time to carry out properly their respective commitments to the Boards, their Committees and all other such duties as were required of them. It is the view of the Nominating & Governance Committees that the Boards continued to operate effectively during fiscal 2021.
During fiscal 2021, the Audit Committees, the Compensation Committees, the Compliance Committees, the HESS Committees and the Nominating & Governance Committees also reviewed their own performance against their respective charters by completing questionnaires that were provided to the Chair of the Nominating & Governance Committees. The results of such reviews were discussed among the members and reported to the Boards. The Boards concluded that the Audit Committees, the Compensation Committees, the Compliance Committees, the HESS Committees and the Nominating & Governance Committees continued to function effectively and continued to meet the requirements of their respective charters.
The UK Corporate Governance Code requires that an externally facilitated evaluation on the Boards’ effectiveness be undertaken at least once every third year. During fiscal 2019, the Nominating & Governance Committees engaged The Governance Solutions Group, an independent third-party governance expert which has no other connection

Directors’ Remuneration
with Carnival Corporation & plc, to perform an assessment of the effectiveness of the Boards. The third-party governance expert interviewed each Director elected in 2019 and members of senior management who interact substantially with the
Board, reviewed the results of the assessment with the incumbent Senior Independent Director and then organized and summarized the assessment for discussion with the full Board.
Directors’ Remuneration
The Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report is presented in two parts, with Part I forming part of the Proxy Statement and Part II being attached as Annex B to the Proxy Statement. A resolution to
approve the Carnival plc Directors’ Remuneration Report will be proposed at the 2022 Annual General Meeting.
Relations with Shareholders
The formal channels of communication by which the Boards communicate to shareholders the overall performance of Carnival Corporation & plc are the Annual Reports, Carnival plc half yearly financial report, joint Annual Report on Form 10-K, joint Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, joint Current Reports on Form 8-K, Proxy Statement and press releases.
Senior management and Non-Executive Directors of Carnival Corporation & plc meet periodically with representatives of institutional shareholders to discuss their views and to enable the strategies and objectives of Carnival Corporation & plc to be well understood. Issues discussed with institutional shareholders include executive compensation, performance, business strategies and corporate governance.
Presentations are made to representatives of the investment community periodically in the U.S., the UK and elsewhere. Results of each fiscal quarter are reviewed with the investment community and others following each quarter on conference calls that are broadcast live over the Internet.
The Boards receive periodic briefings from management regarding feedback and information
obtained from Carnival Corporation & plc’s shareholders and brokers. During fiscal 2021, Carnival Corporation & plc’s management made presentations to the Boards regarding shareholder matters.
Shareholders will have the opportunity at the 2022 Annual General Meeting, notice of which is contained in the Proxy Statement, to ask questions of a representative of the Board and senior management.
The Boards have implemented procedures to facilitate communications between shareholders or interested parties and the Boards. Shareholders or interested parties who wish to communicate with the boards or the Senior Independent Director should address their communications to the attention of the Company Secretary of Carnival Corporation & plc at 3655 N.W. 87th Avenue, Miami, Florida 33178-2428, United States. The Company Secretary promptly forwards to the Senior Independent Director those communications which the Company Secretary believes require immediate attention. The Senior Independent Director notifies the Boards or the Chair of the relevant Committees of the Boards of those matters that he believes are appropriate for further action or discussion.
Annual Meetings of Shareholders
This year the Annual Meetings of Shareholders will be held at Carnival Place, 3655 NW 87th Avenue, Miami, Florida, United States on Friday, April 8, 2022. The meetings will commence at 8:30 a.m. (EDT), and although technically two separate meetings (the

Workforce Engagement
In line with the UK Corporate Governance Code, Randall J. Weisenburger was appointed in 2020 as the designated Non-Executive Director for workforce engagement.
The main responsibilities of this role are the governance and oversight of the following matters:

to directly engage with the workforce in order to ensure their feedback and concerns are appropriately relayed to the Boards, and that strategic direction and priorities of the Boards are communicated throughout the workforce;

to coordinate direct engagement between other Non-Executive Directors, management and the workforce, as appropriate;

to support the Boards’ discussion of employee engagement efforts and structure the contents of such discussions;

to monitor and evaluate workforce engagement to ensure that the efforts on workforce engagement are put in place and are effective, and that employee feedback is shared and collected in a balanced and transparent way; and

to report on the results of workforce engagement efforts, including any feedback and concerns from employees, to the Boards periodically, and make any recommendations arising from those reports to the Boards.
In this role, Mr. Weisenburger is also supported by senior management who are responsible for the day-to-day implementation of the efforts on workforce engagement. Given the global nature of our business with various operating companies, most workforce engagement activity is conducted at the subsidiary level under the leadership of the respective operating company management. Building upon the initial efforts of last year, during fiscal 2021, our workforce engagement program involved a number of initiatives, led by various leaders throughout our organization,
such as live virtual townhall meetings as well as a variety of virtual ship visits. In-person events and visits were not feasible because of continuing travel and health-related restrictions around the globe associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these challenges, we adapted as the year progressed to respond to the needs of our organization and our workforce. In response to the significant operational and financial impact of COVID-19 on our organization, the Boards continued to have bi-weekly meetings until mid-2021 and then continued with monthly meetings. The Boards received regular reports from management regarding our liquidity, compliance status, status of the gradual return to service, including returning ships to guest cruise operations, returning crew members to our ships as well as maintaining the enhanced health and safety protocols and other critical matters. The Boards continued to work closely with management to sustain the business while balancing the needs of the business with that of its workforce, shareholders and other stakeholders.
During fiscal 2021, with the full support of the Boards, we continued to build upon and expand our initiatives designed to engage with and care for our workforce in light of the heavy impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the workforce. Key areas of focus include Outreach & Wellness, Culture, Staffing and Motivation. The Boards and their Committees received periodic reports from senior management on key issues and developments. Mr. Weisenburger reported to the full Boards on the workforce engagement efforts.
Our pay practices are established to attract and retain talented individuals at all levels of the organization and to reward performance. Engagement with the workforce on common pay programs with the support of the Boards were coordinated across the organization and shared locally via townhalls, communications from senior leadership and from

their team leaders. Use of local engagement channels allowed each brand to tailor conversations to their specific programs. Throughout the pandemic the common programs included 2020’s initiatives involving pay reductions and a broad-based equity incentive program, 2021’s restoration of full pay, a common form of annual equity incentive for eligible employees, announcement of planned merit pay increases for 2022 as well as a new broad-based
performance incentive program all of which apply to executives and a significant portion of the workforce. These programs, established with the support of the Boards of Directors, reinforce our focus on retaining our workforce during these challenging times as well as the alignment of our pay for performance philosophy for executives and the workforce.
OUTREACH AND WELLNESS
Management, with support of the Boards of Directors, increased focus on shore and ship employee outreach and wellness with focus on the unique needs of shore and shipboard employees in our current business environment.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continued to affect our operations, we remained focused on maintaining and improving ongoing communication with and from employees. The operating companies focused on communications channels including regular town halls, newsletters, email updates and video messages. Questions and comments from the workforce were requested in advance of the town hall meetings, and in some cases could be submitted electronically during those meetings. Town halls, in addition to other existing communication channels, such as the hotline referred to in the Whistleblowing section below, also allowed our workforce to provide comments and ask questions.
Brand leaders also increased shipboard outreach with live and virtual visits to ships.
Other examples of shoreside outreach and wellness efforts include:

frequent updates from management to improve transparency on business developments, particularly on the COVID-19 pandemic and the gradual return to cruise operations;

newsletters, emails and video updates for both active and furloughed employees to share news, recommendations, helpful resources and tips for wellness;

encouraging leaders to conduct engagement check-ins with their teams as a group and individually in order to hear their concerns and take questions; and

leveraging social media to engage with shore and shipboard workforce.
Other examples of shipboard efforts, in addition to expanding the use of our social media channels, include:

video updates from brand leads;

daily announcements over public announcement system and Crew TV, including special recognition of achievements;

appreciation letters;

package delivery services; and

COVID-19 awareness, health and wellbeing related training materials.
In addition, the shipboard workforce continued to have access to resources and support to ensure physical and mental wellbeing. Brands instituted robust shipboard mental health and wellness plans, including the following:

access to medical professionals, including mental health professionals, Care Team and peer support;

seminars on dealing with stress, mindfulness and cognitive restructuring;

additional Wi-Fi, internet and telephone services;

additional multi-faith spiritual services;

wellness podcasts, articles and eMagazines; and

mental health awareness training.

Benefits for shoreside employees were also revised to address the continued lockdown periods and remote working. Office protocols were established for shore-based employees who are not eligible to work remotely or need to work from the office. These protocols were updated as the situation evolved and include masking in public spaces, physical distancing and encouraging all to get vaccinated.
The feedback obtained from the townhall meetings, surveys and other channels described above touched on themes such as communications, transparency, remote work solutions and engagement needs. With the support of the Boards, management actioned the feedback received through an assortment of communication, health and wellness and enrichment and recognition efforts.
In addition to the other initiatives referred to in this section, we worked with governmental authorities to arrange COVID-19 vaccinations for our crew members.
As the understanding of COVID-19 continued to evolve, we worked with a number of leading public health, epidemiological and policy experts to support our ongoing efforts to develop enhanced protocols and procedures for the return of cruise vacations. These advisors will continue to provide guidance based on the latest scientific evidence and best practices for protection and mitigation, as well as regulatory requirements for the safety of our guests and employees.
We also continued our efforts to implement significant changes in the way we work, pivoting our shoreside operations to allow for remote working, where possible, in order to facilitate physical distancing protocols. We leveraged information from experts in developing protocols and procedures for use in our shoreside offices for those employees whose duties require them to work at the office. In addition, we made available vaccines and now boosters for our crew members, many of whom otherwise may not have had access to vaccinations. We believe these measures are critical to helping keep our workforce, their families and the communities in which we work, safe and healthy.

Workforce Engagement
During fiscal 2021, we continued to implement and monitor our Culture Essentials, which are the key actions and behaviors we will seek to encourage and reinforce to further strengthen our culture. We developed and implemented specific initiatives―many of which were set out in the initial Culture Action Plan whereby brand leaders and senior management met with their direct reports to discuss these key behaviors. These follow-up efforts also included a series of extensive and consistent communications about the Culture Essentials to increase awareness; new and innovative training sessions to promote further understanding; and new expectations that would be measured and incorporated into performance evaluations. More specifically, through these steps, each brand would drive and incentivize the key behaviors that will strengthen our corporate culture. To further elevate the importance of strengthening our corporate culture, we also developed a new culture governance process in which our leadership team is responsible and accountable for developing the strategy for culture improvements. Given the relative expertise of our human resource professionals, the human resource leaders within each operating company are responsible for implementing the strategy throughout the brands, as well as providing periodic reports that summarize such efforts and activities. Lastly, the Global Ethics and Compliance Department is responsible for monitoring the progress and providing regular reports to our leadership team. In addition, to further promote awareness, these summary reports will also be provided to the Compliance Committees of the Boards of Directors.
One additional culture project that began in mid-2021 addressed the need to promote more
accountability of our senior leaders within our organization. On behalf of the Boards of Directors, a nationally-recognized expert in ethics, compliance and integrity was engaged to lead this effort. This executive accountabilities project has been developed and will be implemented in 2022. It will provide the Board of Directors with a practical tool for assessing the contributions that each leader has made to further promote the embed our various culture-related priorities and use this information as a meaningful part of the annual review of executive performance and compensation.
Our goals also continue to be fostering a positive and just culture that involves supporting recruiting, developing and retaining the finest workforce. A highly motivated and engaged workforce is key to delivering vacation experiences that exceed our guests’ expectations. We believe in building trust-based relationships and listening to and acting upon our workforces’ perspectives and ideas and use feedback tools to monitor and improve our progress in this area.
As part of our culture improvements, we developed a culture survey plan involving annual surveys, panel surveys and pulse surveys. The initial pulse survey was launched in June 2021 for shipboard and shoreside employees to complete. After this initial broad launch, another survey was released in September 2021. Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, the survey will run on a periodic basis with a sampling of employees to measure change over time. The results of the pulse surveys were communicated to senior management and the Boards of Directors. A comprehensive annual survey and panel survey are currently under development.
STAFFING
In 2020, as a result of the pause in guest cruise operations we recognized the need to reduce operating expenses which, after due consideration of our employees, included implementing a combination of layoffs, furloughs, reduced work weeks and salary and benefit reductions across the company, including senior management, instituting a hiring freeze across the organization and significantly reducing consultant and contractor roles which the Boards considered to be necessary to safeguard our
long-term sustainability. Although regretting that this was necessary, the situation was handled sensitively, in compliance with local legal requirements and with an eye to providing as much support to the employees as possible.
In some countries outside of the U.S., governmental programs provided some relief allowing us to retain employees for a longer period of time.

Internal Control and Risk Management
For 2021, salary and benefits reductions were discontinued. We also started to gradually bring back furloughed employees and resumed hiring throughout fiscal 2021 as our staffing needs increased due to the gradual resumption of guest cruise operations. We have returned over 65,000 shipboard team members to service and all were offered
COVID vaccinations. Returning ship employees attend a “Welcome Back” session as each ship returns to service to review the Culture Essentials, new training curriculum and to encourage commitment to our Vision Statement, shared values and Culture Essentials.
MOTIVATION
In addition to the matters described above, how the interests of employees have been considered by the Boards in their discussions and decision-making is described in the Strategic Report under following
Sections: 1.A.II. Recent Developments, 1.A.III. Vision, Goals and Related Strategies, 1.C.XII. Ethics and Compliance and 1.C.XIV. Human Capital Management and Employees.
WHISTLEBLOWING
We have policies and procedures in place for employees and other stakeholders to report any actual or suspected violations of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, another of our policies or the laws. We also provide an independent, third-party-hosted hotline where reports can be
made in a secure, confidential and, where desired and permitted by applicable laws, anonymous manner. The Boards review on a quarterly basis reports regarding the status of whistleblowing activity and the results of any investigations.
Internal Control and Risk Management
