|(1) | In 2008, an impairment loss of $128.8 million was recorded as a result of the cancellation of a contract to build a ship (we refer you to our consolidated financial
statements Note 3 Property and Equipment); in 2007, an impairment loss of $2.6 million was recorded as a result of a write-down relating to the sale of Oceanic, formerly known as Independence; and in 2006, an impairment loss of $8.0
million was recorded as a result of a write-down relating to the Orient Lines tradename.

|(2) | In 2010, a loss of $33.1 million was recorded primarily due to losses on foreign exchange contracts associated with the financing of Norwegian Epic. In 2009, 2008, 2007
and 2006, foreign currency translation and interest rate swap gains (losses) of $(9.6) million, $101.8 million, $(94.5) million, and $(38.9) million, respectively, were recorded primarily due to fluctuations in the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate. In
2009 and 2008, these amounts were offset by the change in fair value of our fuel derivative contracts of $20.4 million and $(99.9) million, respectively.

Risk Factors

The specific risk factors set forth below, as well as the other information contained in this annual report on Form 20-F, are important factors, among others, that could cause our actual results to differ
from our expected or historical results and individually or any combination thereof could adversely affect our financial position and results of operations. We refer you to Item 5Operating and Financial Review and Prospects for a
note regarding forward-looking statements.

The adverse impact of the worldwide economic downturn and related factors such as high levels
of unemployment and underemployment, fuel price increases, declines in the securities and real estate markets, and perceptions of these conditions that decrease the level of disposable income of consumers or consumer confidence.

The demand for cruises is affected by international, national and local economic conditions. Adverse changes in the perceived or actual economic climate,
such as higher fuel prices, higher interest rates, stock and real estate market declines and/or volatility, more restrictive credit markets, higher taxes, and changes in governmental policies could reduce the level of discretionary income or
consumer confidence in the countries from which we source our guests. For example, the worldwide economic downturn has had an adverse effect on consumer confidence and discretionary income resulting in decreased demand and price discounting. We
cannot predict the duration or magnitude of this downturn or the timing or strength of economic recovery. If the downturn continues for an extended period of time or worsens, we could experience a prolonged period of decreased demand and price
discounting. In addition, the economic downturn has and may continue to adversely impact our suppliers, which can result in disruptions in service and financial losses.

An increase in cruise capacity.

Historically, cruise capacity has grown to meet the
growth in demand. According to CLIA, North American cruise capacity, in terms of Berths, has increased from 2000 through 2010 at a compound annual growth rate of 6.7%. CLIA estimates that between 2011 and 2014, the North America based CLIA member
line fleet will increase by approximately 13 ships, representing a compound annual capacity growth of 2.7%. In order to profitably utilize this new capacity, the cruise industry will likely need to improve its percentage share of the U.S. population
who has cruised at least once, which is approximately 20%, according to CLIA. If there is an industry-wide increase in capacity without a corresponding increase in public demand, we, as well as the entire cruise industry, could experience reduced
occupancy rates and/or be forced to discount our prices. In addition, increased cruise capacity could impact our ability to retain and attract qualified shipboard employees, including officers, at competitive levels and, therefore, increase our
shipboard employee costs.

We face intense competition from other cruise companies as well as non-cruise vacation alternatives and we may
not be able to compete effectively.

We face intense competition from other cruise companies, primarily with the other Major North
American Cruise Brands, which together comprise approximately 90% of the North American cruise market as measured by total Berths. These brands include Carnival Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean International which comprise the contemporary segment
and Holland America, Princess Cruises and Celebrity Cruises which are part of the premium segment. As of December 31, 2010, Norwegian Cruise Line accounted for approximately 12% of the Major North American Cruise Brands capacity in terms
of Berths. We compete against all of these operators principally on the quality of our ships, our differentiated product offering, selection of our itineraries and value proposition of our cruises. We also face competition for many itineraries from
other cruise operators as well as competition from non-cruise vacation alternatives. In the event we do not compete effectively, our business could be adversely affected.

Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry and prevent us
from making debt service payments.

We are highly leveraged with a high level of variable rate debt, and our level of indebtedness could
limit cash flow available for our operations and could adversely affect our financial condition, operations, prospects and flexibility. As of December 31, 2010, we had $3.2 billion of total debt and $1.7 billion in shareholders equity. As
of December 31, 2010, our liquidity was $451.1 million consisting of $55.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $396.1 million available under our $750.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility.

Our substantial indebtedness could:



| |  |  | limit our ability to borrow money for our working capital, capital expenditures, development projects, debt service requirements, strategic initiatives
or other purposes;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our indebtedness, and any failure to comply with the obligations of any of our
debt instruments, including restrictive covenants and borrowing conditions, could result in an event of default under the agreements governing our indebtedness;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the repayment of our indebtedness thereby reducing funds available to
us for other purposes;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our operations or business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make us more highly leveraged than some of our competitors, which may place us at a competitive disadvantage;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make us more vulnerable to downturns in our business or the economy;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | restrict us from making strategic acquisitions, introducing new technologies or exploiting business opportunities;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | restrict us from taking certain actions by means of restrictive covenants;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make our credit card processors seek more restrictive terms in respect of our credit card arrangements; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | expose us to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of our borrowings are at a variable rate of interest.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Based on our December 31, 2010 outstanding variable-rate debt balance, a one percentage point increase in annual LIBOR interest rates would increase
our annual interest expense by approximately $21 million. In addition, future financings we may undertake may also provide for rates that fluctuate with prevailing interest rates.

The agreements governing our indebtedness contain restrictions that limit our flexibility in operating our business.

The agreements governing our indebtedness contain, and any instruments governing future indebtedness of ours would likely contain, a number of covenants that impose significant operating and financial
restrictions on us, including restrictions on our and our subsidiaries ability to, among other things:



| |  |  | incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of our share capital or make other restricted payments;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make certain investments;
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | sell certain assets;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | create liens on certain assets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | enter into certain transactions with our affiliates; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | designate our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------

As a result of these covenants, we are limited in the manner in which we conduct our business, and we may be unable to engage in favorable business activities or finance future operations or capital
needs.

We have pledged a significant portion of our assets as collateral under our existing debt agreements. If any of the holders of our
indebtedness accelerate the repayment of such indebtedness, there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient assets to repay our indebtedness.

Under our existing debt agreements we are required to satisfy and maintain specified financial ratios. Our ability to meet those financial ratios can be affected by events beyond our control, and there
can be no assurance that we will meet those ratios. A failure to comply with the covenants contained in our existing debt agreements could result in an event of default under the agreements, which, if not cured or waived, could have a material
adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the event of any default under our existing debt agreements, the holders of our indebtedness thereunder:



| |  |  | will not be required to lend any additional amounts to us, if applicable;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | could elect to declare all indebtedness outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest and fees, to be due and payable and terminate all
commitments to extend further credit, if applicable; or
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | could require us to apply all of our available cash to repay such indebtedness.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Such actions by the holders of our indebtedness could cause cross defaults under our other indebtedness. If we were unable to repay those amounts, the
holders of our indebtedness under our existing senior secured credit facilities could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness.

If the indebtedness under our existing debt agreements were to be accelerated, there can be no assurance that our assets would be sufficient to repay such indebtedness in full.

##### Table of Contents

Despite our substantial indebtedness, we may still be able to incur significantly more debt. This could
intensify the risks described above.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial indebtedness at any time from time to time
in the future. Although the terms of the agreements governing our indebtedness contain restrictions on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions, and the
indebtedness incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial.

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service
all of our indebtedness, and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness that may not be successful.

Our ability to satisfy our debt obligations will depend upon, among other things:



| |  |  | our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other
factors, many of which are beyond our control; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our future ability to borrow under certain of our existing senior secured credit facilities, the availability of which depends on, among other things,
our complying with the covenants in such existing senior secured credit facilities.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We cannot assure that our business will
generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or that we will be able to draw under certain of our existing senior secured credit facilities or otherwise, in an amount sufficient to fund our liquidity needs.

If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to service our indebtedness, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell
assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. These alternative measures may not be successful and may not permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations. Our ability to restructure or refinance our debt
will depend on the condition of the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. Any refinancing of our debt could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our
business operations. In addition, the terms of existing or future debt agreements may restrict us from adopting some of these alternatives. In the absence of such operating results and resources, we could face substantial liquidity problems and
might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions for fair market value or at all. Furthermore, any proceeds that we could realize from
any such dispositions may not be adequate to meet our debt service obligations then due. Neither our shareholders nor any of their respective affiliates has any continuing obligation to provide us with debt or equity financing.

The impact of volatility and disruptions in the global credit and financial markets may adversely affect our ability to borrow and could increase our
counterparty credit risks, including those under our credit facilities, derivative instruments, contingent obligations, insurance contracts and new ship progress payment guarantees.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to borrow additional money on terms as favorable as our current debt, on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. As a result of the global credit crisis,
certain financial institutions have filed for bankruptcy, have sold some or all of their assets, or may be looking to enter into a merger or other transaction with another financial institution. Consequently, some of the counterparties under our
credit facilities, derivative instruments, contingent obligations, insurance contracts and new ship progress payment guarantees may be unable to perform their obligations or may breach their obligations to us under our contracts with them, which
could include failures of financial institutions to fund required borrowings under our loan agreements and to pay us amounts that may become due under our derivative contracts and other agreements. Also, we may be limited in obtaining funds to pay
amounts due to our counterparties under our derivative contracts and to pay amounts that may become due under other agreements. If we were to elect to replace any counterparty for their failure to perform their obligations under such instruments, we
would likely incur significant costs to replace the counterparty. Any failure to replace any counterparties under these circumstances may result in additional costs to us or an ineffective instrument.

Terrorist acts, acts of piracy, armed conflict and threats thereof, and other international events impacting the security of travel could adversely
affect the demand for cruises.

Past acts of terrorism have had an adverse effect on tourism, travel and the availability of air service
and other forms of transportation. The threat or possibility of future terrorist acts, an outbreak of hostilities or armed conflict abroad or the possibility thereof, the issuance of travel advisories by national governments, and other geo-political
uncertainties have had in the past and may again in the future have an adverse impact on the demand for cruises and consequently the pricing for cruises. Decreases in demand and reduced pricing in response to such decreased demand would adversely
affect our business by reducing our profitability.

##### Table of Contents

We rely on external distribution channels for passenger bookings, and major changes in the availability
of external distribution channels could undermine our customer base.

In 2010, the majority of our passengers on our fleet booked their
cruises through independent travel agents. In the event that the travel agent distribution channel is adversely impacted by the worldwide economic downturn, or other reason, this could reduce the distribution channels available for us to market and
sell our cruises and we could be forced to increase the use of alternative distribution channels.

We rely on scheduled commercial airline
services for passenger connections, and increases in the price of, or major changes or reduction in, commercial airline services could undermine our customer base.

A number of our passengers depend on scheduled commercial airline services to transport them to ports of embarkation for our cruises. Increases in the price of airfare, due to increases in fuel prices or
other factors, would increase the overall vacation cost to our customers and may adversely affect demand for our cruises. Changes in commercial airline services as a result of strikes, weather or other events, or the lack of availability due to
schedule changes or a high level of airline bookings could adversely affect our ability to deliver passengers to our cruises and/or increase our cruise operating expense.

Increases in fuel prices or other cruise operating costs.

Fuel costs accounted for 15.4%
of our total cruise operating expense in 2010, 12.6% in 2009 and 16.4% in 2008. Economic and political conditions in certain parts of the world make it difficult to predict the price of fuel in the future. Future increases in the cost of fuel
globally would increase the cost of our cruise ship operations. In addition, we could experience increases in other cruise operating costs, such as crew, insurance and security costs, due to market forces and economic or political instability beyond
our control.

Any delays in the construction and delivery of a cruise ship, including any termination or breach of contract or any repairs
and refurbishments of one of our ships.

Delays in the construction, repair, refurbishment and delivery of a cruise ship can occur as a
result of events such as insolvency, work stoppages, other labor actions or force majeure events experienced by our shipbuilders and other such companies that are beyond our control. Any termination or breach of contract following such
an event may result in, among other things, the forfeiture of prior deposits or payments made by us, potential claims and impairment of losses. A significant delay in the delivery of a new ship, or a significant performance deficiency or mechanical
failure of a new ship, particularly in light of decreasing availability of Dry-docking facilities, could have an adverse effect on our business.

Conducting business internationally may result in increased costs and risks.

We operate
our business internationally and plan to continue to develop our international presence. Operating internationally exposes us to a number of risks, including political risks and risks of increase in duties and taxes, risks relating to anti-bribery
laws, as well as changes in laws and policies affecting cruising, vacation or maritime businesses, or governing the operations of foreign-based companies. Because some of our expenses are incurred in foreign currencies, we are exposed to exchange
rate risks. Additional risks include interest rate movements, imposition of trade barriers and restrictions on repatriation of earnings.

Future epidemics and viral outbreaks.

Public perception about the safety of travel and adverse publicity related to passenger or crew illness, such as incidents of H1N1, stomach flu, or other
contagious diseases, may impact demand for cruises. If any wide-ranging health scare should occur, our business would likely be adversely affected.

The political environment in certain countries where we operate is uncertain and our ability to operate our business as we have in the past may be restricted.

We operate in waters and call at ports throughout the world, including geographic regions that, from time to time, have experienced political and civil
unrest as well as insurrection and armed hostilities. Adverse international events could affect demand for cruise products generally and could have an adverse effect on us.

Adverse incidents involving cruise ships.

The operation of cruise ships carries an
inherent risk of loss caused by adverse weather conditions, maritime disaster, including, but not limited to, oil spills and other environmental mishaps, fire, mechanical failure, collisions, human error, war, terrorism, piracy,

##### Table of Contents

political action, civil unrest and insurrection in various countries and other circumstances or events. Any such event may result in loss of life or property, loss of revenue or increased costs.
The operation of cruise ships also involves the risk of other incidents at sea or while in port, including missing passengers, inappropriate crew or passenger behavior and onboard crimes, that may bring into question passenger safety, may adversely
affect future industry performance and may lead to litigation against us. Although we place passenger safety as the highest priority in the design and operation of our fleet, we have experienced accidents and other incidents involving our cruise
ships and there can be no assurance that similar events will not occur in the future. It is possible that we could be forced to cancel a cruise or a series of cruises due to these factors or incur increased port related and other costs resulting
from such adverse events. Any such event involving our cruise ships or other passenger cruise ships may adversely affect passengers perceptions of safety or result in increased governmental or other regulatory oversight. An adverse judgment or
settlement in respect of any of the ongoing claims against us may also lead to negative publicity about us. Anything that damages our reputation (whether or not justified), including adverse publicity about passenger safety, could have an adverse
impact on demand, which could lead to price discounting and a reduction in our sales.

There can be no assurance that all risks are fully
insured against or that any particular claim will be fully paid. Such losses, to the extent they are not adequately covered by contractual remedies or insurance, could affect our financial results. In addition, we have been and continue to be
subject to calls, or premiums, in amounts based not only on our own claim records, but also the claim records of all other members of the protection and indemnity associations through which we receive indemnity coverage for tort liability. Our
payment of these calls could result in significant expenses to us which could reduce our cash flows. If we were to sustain significant losses in the future, our ability to obtain insurance coverage or coverage at commercially reasonable rates could
be materially adversely affected.

Amendments to the collective bargaining agreements for crew members of our fleet.

Currently, we are a party to six collective bargaining agreements. Three of these agreements were in effect until December 2010 and remain in force until
a new agreement has been reached. The three remaining collective bargaining agreements are scheduled to expire in 2018. Any amendments to such collective bargaining agreements in favor of the union members may increase labor costs.

Unavailability of ports of call.

We
believe that attractive port destinations are a major reason why passengers choose to go on a particular cruise or on a cruise vacation. The availability of ports is affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, existing capacity
constraints, security concerns, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, financial limitations on port development, local governmental regulations and local community concerns about port development and other adverse impacts on their
communities from additional tourists. Any limitations on the availability of our ports of call could adversely affect our business.

The
loss of key personnel or our inability to recruit or retain qualified personnel.

We rely upon the ability, expertise, judgment,
discretion, integrity and good faith of our senior management team. Our success is dependent upon our personnel and our ability to recruit and retain high quality employees. We must continue to recruit, retain and motivate management and other
employees sufficient to maintain our current business and support our projected growth. The loss of services of any of our key members of our management team could have a material adverse effect on our business. We refer you to
Item 6Directors, Senior Management and Employees for additional information about our management personnel.

The
leadership of our President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sheehan, and other executive officers has been a critical element of our success. The death or disability of Mr. Sheehan or other extended or permanent loss of his services, or
any negative market or industry perception with respect to him or arising from his loss, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our other executive officers and other members of senior management have substantial experience and
expertise in our business and have made significant contributions to our growth and success. The unexpected loss of services of one or more of these individuals could also adversely affect us. We are not protected by key man or similar life
insurance covering members of our senior management. We have employment agreements with our executive officers, but these agreements do not guarantee that any given executive will remain with us.

We are controlled by certain of our shareholders, whose interests may not be aligned with ours.

All of our voting ordinary shares are held by affiliates of Genting HK, the Apollo Funds and the TPG Viking Funds. We expect that those parties or their
affiliates would continue to control a majority of our ordinary shares if the proposed initial public offering is consummated. The shareholders agreement governing the relationship among those parties gives the Apollo Funds effective control
over our affairs and policies, subject to certain limitations. Genting HK and the Apollo Funds also control the election of the Board of

##### Table of Contents

Directors, the appointment of management, the entering into of mergers, sales of substantially all of our assets and other material transactions. We refer you to Item 7Major
Shareholders and Related Party Transactions for more on the shareholders agreement. Our directors have been appointed by one of Genting HK or the Apollo Funds. The members affiliated with Genting HK and the Apollo Funds have the
authority, on our behalf and subject to the terms of our debt, to issue additional shares, implement share repurchase programs, declare dividends, pay advisory fees and make other material decisions, and they may have an interest in our doing so.

Furthermore, Genting HK engages in the cruise line industry and leisure, entertainment and hospitality activities and Apollo and TPG Capital
are in the business of making investments in companies and one or more of them has now and may from time to time acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us, as well as businesses that represent major
customers of our business. Genting HK, Apollo and/or TPG Capital may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. So long as our current
shareholders continue to control a significant amount of our outstanding voting ordinary shares, such shareholders will continue to be able to strongly influence or effectively control our decisions. Additionally, the concentration of ownership held
by our current shareholders could delay, defer or prevent a change of control of us or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination.

Future changes in applicable tax laws, or our inability to take advantage of favorable tax regimes.

We believe and have taken the position that our income that is considered to be shipping income (as defined in Item 4Information on the
CompanyTaxationTaxation of Operating Income: In General), is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes under Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), based upon certain assumptions as to
shareholdings and other information as more fully described in Item 4Information on the CompanyTaxationExemption of Operating Income from U.S. Federal Income Taxation. The provisions of Section 883 of the Code are
subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect.

The U.S.-source portion of our income that is not shipping income (including
our U.S.-flagged operations) is generally subject to federal corporate income taxation on a net basis (generally at a 35% rate) and state and local taxes, and our effectively connected earnings and profits may also be subject to an additional branch
profits tax of 30% (the net tax regime). Currently, these taxes, if any, would generally be imposed on our shareholders. We are permitted to distribute funds to our shareholders to pay such taxes, or in some cases, pursuant to
Section 1446 of the Code, we may withhold such taxes at the partnership level. However, if our initial public offering is consummated (as discussed below), we will pay such taxes directly. We believe and have taken the position that
substantially all of our income derived from the international operation of ships is properly categorized as shipping income and that we do not have a material amount of non-qualifying income. It is possible, however, that a much larger percentage
of our income does not qualify (or will not qualify) as shipping income. Moreover, even if our interpretation of Section 883 is correct, because we are currently treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the exemption for
shipping income is based on our shareholders satisfying complex stock ownership tests under Section 883 of the Code as described in Item 4Information on the CompanyTaxationExemption of Operating Income from U.S. Federal
Income Taxation. There are factual circumstances beyond our control, including changes in the direct and indirect owners of our shares that could cause our shareholders to lose the benefit of this tax exemption. Finally, any changes in our
operations could significantly increase our exposure to either the net tax regime or the four percent tax regime, as defined below (either by increasing our permitted tax distributions to our shareholders and/or our required withholding in respect
of shareholder level taxes, or by increasing our taxes directly (if our public offering is consummated)), and we can give no assurances on this matter.

If any of our shareholders were to fail to qualify for the exemption under Section 883 of the Code, such shareholders allocable share of our U.S.-source income would be subject to either the
net tax regime or to a four percent tax of gross income provided under Section 887 of the Code (the four percent tax regime). We refer you to Item 4Information on the CompanyTaxationTaxation of Operating
Income: In General.

If our initial public offering is consummated, we would become a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
At such time, we (as opposed to our shareholders) would be required to satisfy the complex stock ownership tests under Section 883 of the Code. If we or any of our subsidiaries were not to qualify for the exemption under Section 883 of the
Code, our or such subsidiarys U. S.-source income would be subject either to the net tax regime or the four percent regime (as discussed above). We expect that we and our subsidiaries will satisfy the stock ownership tests imposed under
Section 883 following an initial public offering and therefore expect that we will qualify for the exemption under Section 883. However, as discussed above, there are factual circumstances beyond our control that could cause us to not meet
the stock ownership tests. Therefore, we can give no assurances on this matter. We refer you to Item 4Information on the CompanyTaxationExemption of Operating Income from U.S. Federal Income Taxation.

We may be subject to state, local and non-U.S. income or non-income taxes in various jurisdictions,
including those in which we transact business, own property or reside. We may be required to file tax returns in some or all of those jurisdictions. Our state, local or non-U.S. tax treatment may not conform to the U.S. federal income tax treatment
discussed above. We may be required to pay non-U.S. taxes on dispositions of foreign property or operations involving foreign property that may give rise to non-U.S. income or other tax liabilities in amounts that could be substantial.

The various tax regimes to which we are currently subject result in a relatively low effective tax rate on our worldwide income. These tax regimes,
however, are subject to change. Moreover, we may become subject to new tax regimes and may be unable to take advantage of favorable tax provisions afforded by current or future law.

We are subject to complex laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations, which could adversely affect our operations and any changes in the current laws and regulations could lead
to increased costs or decreased revenue.

Some environmental groups have lobbied for more extensive oversight of cruise ships and have
generated negative publicity about the cruise industry and its environmental impact. Increasingly stringent federal, state, local and international laws and regulations on environmental protection and health and safety of workers could affect our
operations. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the IMO, the Council of the European Union and individual states are considering, as well as implementing, new laws and rules to manage cruise ship waste. In addition, many aspects of the cruise
industry are subject to governmental regulation by the U.S. Coast Guard as well as international treaties such as the SOLAS, MARPOL, the Standard of Training Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) and its recently adopted
conventions in ship manning. International regulations regarding ballast water and security levels are currently pending. Additionally, the U.S. and various state and foreign government or regulatory agencies have enacted or are considering new
environmental regulations or policies, such as requiring the use of low sulfur fuels, increasing fuel efficiency requirements or further restricting emissions. Compliance with such laws and regulations may entail significant expenses for ship
modification and changes in operating procedures which could adversely impact our operations as well as our competitors operations. In addition, the state of Alaska approved stringent regulations in 2008 concerning waste water discharge. In
2010, Alaska issued a final permit that regulates discharges of treated wastewater from cruise ships for the summer tourist seasons running from 2010 to 2012. The permit provides for the cruise companies to gather data on performance of new
shipboard environmental control systems that will allow a scientific review committee to advise state officials on improving the regulations. The Maritime Labor Convention 2006 will become international law when the prerequisite number of countries
ratify. It will regulate many aspects of maritime crew labor and will impact the worldwide sourcing of new crewmembers.

These issues are, and
we believe will continue to be, an area of focus by the relevant authorities throughout the world. This could result in the enactment of more stringent regulation of cruise ships that would subject us to increasing compliance costs in the future.

By virtue of our operations in the U.S., the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) requires us to maintain a third-party
performance guarantee on our behalf in respect of liabilities for non-performance of transportation and other obligations to passengers. The FMC has proposed rules that would significantly increase the amount of our required guarantees and
accordingly our cost of compliance. There can be no assurance that such an increase in the amount of our guarantees, if required, would be available to us. For additional discussion of the FMCs proposed requirements, we refer you to Item
4Information on the CompanyRegulatory Issues.

In 2007, the state of Alaska implemented taxes which have impacted the cruise
industry operating in Alaska. It is possible that other states, countries or ports of call that our ships regularly visit may also decide to assess new taxes or fees or change existing taxes or fees specifically applicable to the cruise industry and
its employees and/or guests, which could increase our operating costs and/or could decrease the demand for cruises.

The Passenger Shipping
Association (PSA) has issued a legal requirement for us to maintain a security guarantee based on cruise business originated from the United Kingdom.

Changes in health, safety, security and other regulatory issues.

We are subject to
various international, national, state and local health, safety and security laws and regulations. For additional discussion of these requirements, we refer you to Item 4Information on the CompanyRegulatory Issues. Changes in
existing legislation or regulations and the imposition of new requirements could adversely affect our business.

Implementation of U.S.
federal regulations, requiring U.S. citizens to obtain passports for seaborne travel to all foreign destinations, could adversely affect our business. Many cruise customers may not currently have passports or may not obtain a passport card
(previously known as the People Access Security Service Card, or PASS Card) as an alternative to a passport. This card was created to meet the documentary requirements of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative. Applications for the card have been
accepted since February 1, 2008 and the cards were made available to the public beginning in July 2008. As of June 1, 2009, all U.S. citizens returning to the U.S. via land or sea borders must provide a PASS Card or U.S. Passport.

We may become subject to taxes in Bermuda after March 28, 2016.

Under current Bermuda law, we are not subject to tax on income or capital gains. We have received from the Minister of Finance under The Exempted
Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966, as amended, an assurance that, in the event that Bermuda enacts legislation imposing tax computed on profits, income, any capital asset, gain or appreciation, or any tax in the nature of estate duty or
inheritance, then the imposition of any such tax shall not be applicable to us or to any of our operations or shares, debentures or other obligations, until March 28, 2016. We could be subject to taxes in Bermuda after that date. This assurance
is subject to the proviso that it is not to be construed to prevent the application of any tax or duty to such persons as are ordinarily resident in Bermuda or to prevent the application of any tax payable in accordance with the provisions of the
Land Tax Act 1967 or otherwise payable in relation to any property leased to us. We pay annual Bermuda government fees. The Bermuda government announced that it intends to extend the period of time for which an assurance may be granted to 2035.
Further details are expected to be forthcoming in early 2011.

If our proposed initial public offering is consummated and assuming that we
would list our ordinary shares on a national securities exchange, we expect to be a controlled company within the meaning of the rules of a national securities exchange and, as a result, would qualify for, and intend to rely on,
exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.

If our proposed initial public offering, which was filed on October 26,
2010, is consummated and assuming that we would list our ordinary shares on a national securities exchange, we expect that Genting HK, the Apollo Funds and the TPG Viking Funds (or their respective affiliates) would together continue to control a
majority of our ordinary shares. As a result, we would be a controlled company within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of a national securities exchange. Under the rules of a national securities exchange, a company of
which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a controlled company and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including:



| |  |  | the requirement that a majority of the Board of Directors consists of independent directors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the requirement that we have a nominating/corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter
addressing the committees purpose and responsibilities;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the
committees purpose and responsibilities; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the nominating/corporate governance and compensation committees.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If our proposed initial public offering is consummated, we intend to utilize these exemptions. As a result, we would not have a majority of independent
directors nor would we be required to have any independent directors on our nominating/corporate governance and compensation committees, and we would not be required to have an annual performance evaluation of the nominating/corporate governance and
compensation committees. Accordingly, our shareholders would not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to a national securities exchanges general corporate governance requirements (without giving
effect to the controlled company exemptions). There can be no assurance that we would list our ordinary shares on a national securities exchange.

BUSINESS

Our Company

We are a leading global cruise line operator, offering cruise experiences for
travelers with a wide variety of itineraries in North America (including Alaska and Hawaii), the Mediterranean and the Baltic, Central America, Bermuda and the Caribbean. We strive to offer an innovative and differentiated cruise vacation with the
goal of providing our customers the highest levels of overall satisfaction on their cruise experience. In turn, we aim to generate the highest customer loyalty and greatest numbers of repeat customers. We created a distinctive style of cruising
called Freestyle Cruising onboard all of our ships, which we believe provides our passengers with the freedom and flexibility associated with a resort style atmosphere and experience as well as more dining options than a traditional
cruise. We established the very first private island developed by a cruise line in the Bahamas with a diverse offering of activities for passengers. After enactment of federal legislation we are the only cruise line operator to offer an entirely
inter-island itinerary in Hawaii with our U.S.-flagged ship, Pride of America. This itinerary is unparalleled in the cruise industry, as all other competing cruise lines are registered outside the U.S. and are required to dock at a distant foreign
port when providing their customers with a Hawaiian-based cruise itinerary. By providing such a distinctive experience and appealing combination of value and service, we straddle both the contemporary and premium segments. As a result, we have been
recognized for our achievements as the recipient of multiple honorary awards mainly consisting of reviews tabulated from the readers of travel periodicals such as Travel Weekly, Condé Nast Traveler, and Travel & Leisure. Our newest ship,
Norwegian Epic, was awarded Gold in the Contemporary Ship Category as Best Cruise Ship Overall by Travel Weekly for the 2010 Magellan Award.

We offer a wide variety of cruises ranging from one day to three weeks. During 2010, we docked at over 125 ports worldwide, with itineraries originating from 17 ports of which 10 are in North America. In
line with our strategy of innovation, many of these North American ports are part of our Homeland Cruising program in which we have homeports which are close to major population centers, such as New York, Boston and South Florida. This
reduces the need for vacationers to fly to distant ports to embark on a cruise and helps reduce our customers overall vacation cost. We offer a wide selection of exotic itineraries outside of the traditional cruising markets of the Caribbean
and Mexico; these include cruises in Europe, including the Mediterranean and Baltic, Bermuda, Alaska and the industrys only entirely inter-island itinerary in Hawaii, with our U.S.-flagged ship, Pride of America.

Our new management team has driven the Company to achieve substantial improvements in operating results and growth in revenue and cash flow generation in
a challenging market environment. Since joining the Company in late 2007, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Kevin M. Sheehan, has led a successful turnaround of the Company including overseeing major initiatives such as improving onboard
service and amenities across the fleet, expanding the lines European presence and repositioning two of the lines Hawaii based ships, which had a significant impact on the profitability of the business. In addition, we recently appointed
Wendy A. Beck as our new Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and augmented our senior management team with five new Senior Vice Presidents in the areas of Sales, Marketing, Hotel Operations and Finance.

We have also successfully restructured our sales organization to provide better coverage of the travel agent community and to capture a greater
percentage of direct sales to customers. Through these changes and other initiatives, we have strengthened our brand and significantly enhanced our product offering, reduced operating costs and improved both our sales network and our relationships
with our travel agent partners. These organization-wide improvements have enabled us to bolster our brand, attracting and retaining our most loyal and profitable customers and maximizing revenue and profit.

Our fleet of eleven modern ships has been purpose-built to deliver Freestyle Cruising, which we believe provides us with a competitive
advantage given our consistent Freestyle Cruising product offering. By focusing on Freestyle Cruising, we have been able to achieve higher onboard spend levels, greater customer loyalty and the ability to attract a more
diverse clientele. At the end of June 2010, we took delivery of our largest cruise ship, Norwegian Epic (4,100 Berths), which represents the next evolution of Freestyle Cruising, offering 21 dining options and what we believe to be the
widest array of entertainment options at sea. As of December 31, 2010, we have the youngest fleet of cruise ships in the industry among the Major North American Cruise Brands, with a weighted-average age of 6.1 years.

As a result of our positive operating performance over the last three years, the successful launch of Norwegian Epic, the growing demand we see for our
distinctive cruise offering, and the rational supply outlook for the industry, we believe that it is an optimal time for the Company to add two new ships to our fleet, in order to continue to grow the Norwegian brand and drive shareholder value. In
September 2010, we reached an agreement with Meyer Werft GmbH of Germany to build two new cruise ships for delivery in the second quarter of 2013 and 2014, respectively. Building on the success of Norwegian Epic, we have designed these two new
next-generation Freestyle Cruising ships to include some of the most popular elements of our recently delivered ships together with new and differentiated features. We have entered into financing arrangements for approximately 90% of the
contract price of the two ships. Each ship will approximate 143,500 Gross Tons and 4,000 Berths with an aggregate contract price of the two ships of approximately 1.2 billion, or $1.6 billion based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of
December 31, 2010. This is approximately 155,000 per Berth, or $207,000 per Berth based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010.

##### Table of Contents

Our operating entities have been aggregated as a single reportable segment based on the similarity of their
economic characteristics, as well as products and services provided. Although we sell cruises on an international basis, our passenger ticket revenue is primarily attributed to passengers who make reservations in North America. For each of the years
ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, revenues attributable to North American passengers were 83%. Substantially all of our long-lived assets are located outside of the U.S. and consist primarily of our ships.

Our Industry

We believe that the cruise
industry demonstrates the following positive fundamentals:

Strong Growth with Low Penetration and Significant Upside

Cruising is a vacation alternative with broad appeal, as it offers a wide range of products and services to suit the preferences of vacationing customers
of all ages, backgrounds and interests. Since 1980, cruising has been one of the fastest growing segments of the North American vacation market. According to CLIA, in 2010 approximately 15 million passengers took cruises of two consecutive
nights or more on CLIA member lines versus 7.2 million passengers in 2000, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 8%. Based on CLIAs research, we believe that cruising is under-penetrated and represents approximately
10% of the North American vacation market. As measured in Berths or room count, the cruise industry is relatively nascent as compared to the wide variety of much more established vacation travel destinations across North America.

According to the Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, there are approximately
274,000 rooms in just Orlando and Las Vegas combined. By comparison, the estimated Major North American Cruise Brands capacity in terms of Berths is approximately 224,000. In addition, according to industry research, only 20% of the U.S.
population has ever taken a cruise and this percentage should increase as the market for first-time cruise passengers expands. The European vacation market, the fastest growing market globally, remains under-penetrated by the cruise industry, with
approximately 1% of Europeans having taken a cruise in 2008, compared with 3.1% of the population in the U.S. and Canada having taken a cruise in 2008.

We believe that improving leisure travel trends along with a relatively low supply outlook in the near term from the Major North American Cruise Brands lead to an attractive business environment for our
Company to operate in.

Attractive Demographic Trends to Drive Cruising Growth

The cruise market is comprised of a broad spectrum of customers and appeals to virtually all demographic categories. Based on CLIAs 2008 study, the target North American cruise market, defined as
households with income of $40,000 or more headed by a person who is at least 25 years old, is estimated to be 128.6 million people. Also according to the study, the average cruise customer is 50 years old with a household income of $109,000,
with 70% of all cruise customers falling between the ages of 40 to 74. We believe this represents a very attractive segment of the population as the Brookings Institution recently reported that over the past decade the 55 to 64 age group was the
fastest growing age group in the U.S. It is our belief that Freestyle Cruising will help us attract customers not only in the lucrative older population segment of North America, but also with younger generations, as well as Europeans,
who we believe are more likely to enjoy greater levels of freedom during their cruise through the Freestyle Cruising product offering than was traditionally offered within the cruise industry.

Significant Value Proposition and High Level of Guest Satisfaction

We believe that the cost of a cruise vacation, relative to a comparable land-based resort or hotel vacation in Orlando or Las Vegas, offers an exceptional value proposition. When one considers that a
typical cruise, for one all-inclusive price, offers its guests transportation to a variety of destinations, hotel-style accommodations, a generous diversity of food choices and a selection of daily entertainment options, this is compelling support
for the cruise value proposition relative to other leisure alternatives. Cruises have become even more affordable for a greater number of North American customers over the past few years through the introduction of Homeland Cruising,
which eliminates the cost of airfare commonly associated with a vacation.

According to CLIAs 2008 study, approximately 70% of persons
who have taken a cruise rate cruising as a high-value vacation alternative. In this same survey, CLIA reported that approximately 80% of cruise passengers agree that a cruise vacation is a good way to sample various destinations which they may visit
again on a land-based vacation. In addition, CLIAs surveys also show that cruise passengers have the highest level of satisfaction when compared to alternative land-based vacations like resorts and land-based escorted tours.

High Barriers to Entry

The cruise industry is characterized by high barriers to entry, including the existence of several established and recognizable brands, the large expense of building a new, sophisticated cruise ship, the
long lead time necessary to construct new ships and limited newbuild shipyard capacity. Based on new ships announced over the past several years, the cost to build a cruise ship can range from approximately $500 million to $1.4 billion or
approximately $200,000 to $425,000 per Berth, depending on the ships size and quality of product offering. The construction time of a newbuild ship is typically between 27 months to 36 months and requires significant upfront cash payments to
fund construction costs before a dollar of revenue is generated. In addition, the shipbuilding industry is experiencing tightened capacity as the size of ships increases and the industry consolidates, with virtually all new capacity added in the
last 20 years having been built by one of three major European shipbuilders.

Segments and Brands

The different cruise lines that make up the global cruise vacation industry have historically been segmented by product offering and service quality into
contemporary, premium and luxury brands. The contemporary segment generally includes cruises on larger ships that last seven days or less, provides a casual ambiance and is less expensive on average than the premium or luxury segments. The premium
segment generally is characterized by cruises that last from seven to 14 nights with a higher quality product offering than the contemporary segment, appealing to a more affluent demographic. The luxury segment generally offers the highest level of
service and quality, with longer cruises on the smallest ships. In classifying our competitors within the Major North American Cruise Brands, the contemporary segment has historically included Carnival Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean International.
The premium segment has historically included Celebrity Cruises, Holland America and Princess Cruises. By providing a diverse set of itineraries and a Freestyle Cruising experience, we believe that we straddle both the contemporary and
premium segments as well as offer a unique combination of value and leisure services to cruise customers. Based on fleet counts as of December 31, 2010, the Major North American Cruise Brands together represent approximately 90% of the North
American cruise market as measured by total Berths.

Our Competitive Strengths

We believe that the following business strengths will enable us to execute our strategy:

Leading Cruise Operator with High-Quality Product Offering

We believe that our modern fleet provides us with operational and strategic advantages as our entire fleet has been purpose-built for Freestyle Cruising with a wider range of passenger
amenities relative to many of our competitors.

We believe that in recent years the distinction has been blurred between segments of the
market historically known as premium and contemporary, with the Major North American Cruise Brands each offering a wide range of onboard experiences across their respective fleets. With the completion of our fleet renewal
initiative, we believe that based on a number of different metrics that directly impact a passengers onboard experience, we compare favorably against the other Major North American Cruise Brands, with product attributes more in line with the
premium segment.



| |  |  | Youngest Fleet.With a weighted-average age of 6.1 years (as of December 31, 2010) and no ships built before 1998, we have the youngest
fleet among the Major North American Cruise Brands, which we believe allows us to offer a high-quality passenger experience with a significant level of consistency across our entire fleet. As a result of our younger fleet, we have a substantially
higher percentage of outside balcony cabins across our fleet than the other contemporary brands, which helps drive higher Net Yields.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Rich Cabin Mix. As of December 31, 2010, 48% of our cabins had private balconies representing a higher mix of outside balcony cabins than
the other contemporary brands. In addition, five of our ships offer a complex of private courtyard villas of up to approximately 570 square feet each. Customers staying in these villas are provided with personal butler service and exclusive access
to a private courtyard area with private pools, sundeck, hot tubs, and fitness center. Six of our ships also offer luxury garden villas of up to 6,694 square feet, making them the largest accommodations at sea.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | High-Quality Service. We believe we offer a very high level of onboard service, as demonstrated by our guest-to-crew ratio of 2.2 to 1, which is
among the best of all the Major North American Cruise Brands.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Diverse Selection of Premium Itineraries. For the year ended December 31, 2010, approximately 54% of our itineraries, by Capacity Days,
were in more exotic, under-penetrated and less traditional locations, including Alaska, Hawaii, Bermuda and Europe, compared to the other contemporary brands which are focused primarily on itineraries in the Caribbean and Mexico. This mix of
destinations is more consistent with the brands in the premium segment, and these itineraries typically attract higher Net Yield than Caribbean and Mexico sailings.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that this high-quality product offering positions us well in comparison to the other Major North
American Cruise Brands and provides an opportunity for continued Net Yield growth.

Freestyle Cruising

The most important differentiator for our brand is the Freestyle Cruising concept onboard all eleven of our ships. The essence of
Freestyle Cruising is to provide a cruise experience that offers more freedom and flexibility than any other traditional cruise alternative. While many cruise lines have historically required guests to dine at assigned group tables and
at specified times, Freestyle Cruising offers the flexibility and choice to our passengers who prefer to dine when they want, with whomever they want and without having to dress formally. Additionally, we have increased the number of
activities and dining facilities available onboard, allowing passengers to tailor their onboard experience to their own schedules, desires and tastes. The key elements of Freestyle Cruising include:



| |  |  | flexible dining policy; no fixed dining times or pre-assigned seating in our dining rooms;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | up to 21 dining options; in addition to multiple main dining rooms, a casual action station buffet and quick service outdoor grill, our ships offer a
wide variety of specialty restaurants, with most offering a classic steakhouse, fine French, Japanese teppanyaki, sushi, Italian, Mexican and Asian fusion restaurants, which we believe is the widest selection of full-service dining options among the
fleets of the Major North American Cruise Brands;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | resort-casual dress code acceptable throughout the ship at all times;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased service staff for a more personalized vacation experience;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | replacement of cash tipping with an automated service charge system;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diverse lifestyle activities, including cultural and educational onboard programs along with an increased adventure emphasis for shore
excursions; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | passenger-friendly disembarkation policies.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------

All of our ships have been custom designed and purpose-built for Freestyle Cruising, which we believe differentiates us significantly from our major competitors. We further believe that
Freestyle Cruising attracts a passenger base that prefers the less structured, resort-style experience of our cruises. Building on the success of Freestyle Cruising, we implemented across our fleet Freestyle 2.0
featuring significant enhancements to our onboard product offering. These enhancements include a major investment in the total dining experience; upgrading the stateroom experience across the ship; new wide-ranging onboard activities for all ages;
and additional recognition, services and amenities for premium-priced balcony, suite and villa passengers. With Norwegian Epic we have enhanced Freestyle Cruising by offering what we believe to be unmatched flexibility in entertainment,
offering guests a wide variety of activities and performances to choose from at any time of day or night.

Established Brand Recognition

The Norwegian Cruise Line brand is well established in the cruise industry with a long track record of delivering a world class cruise
product offering to its customers. We achieve high-quality feedback scores from our customers in the areas of overall service, physical ship attributes, onboard products and services, food and beverage offerings and overall entertainment and
land-based excursion quality. Based on recent guest experience and loyalty reports, the quality of our guests experience generates high levels of customer loyalty, as demonstrated by the fact that approximately 30% of our customers are repeat
customers and approximately 70% say they would recommend Norwegian Cruise Line to their friends and family.

Brand recognition is also strong
with over 92% of cruisers reporting familiarity with Norwegian. Additionally, our brand is known for freedom, flexibility and choice, all highly valued benefits within the cruise industry demographic. We continue to receive industry-wide
recognition, winning more than 30 honorary awards during 2008 through 2010 which are reviews tabulated from the readers of Shermans Travel, Condé Nast Traveler, Travel & Leisure, AOL Travel and ForbesTraveler.com. Norwegian
Epic was awarded Gold in the Contemporary Ship category as Best Cruise Ship Overall by Travel Weekly for the 2010 Magellan Award.

Strong Cash Flow

Nearly all of our
capital expenditures, other than those related to our newbuild projects which are substantially financed and the current renovation of our private island, relate to the maintenance of our young and modern fleet and shoreside operations, which
includes investments in our IT infrastructure and business intelligence systems. Our newbuild projects include

very attractive financing which will fund approximately 90% of the required pre-delivery and delivery date construction payments; as such, we expect the cost of our newbuild projects to have a
minimal impact on our cash flow in the near term.

We are able to generate significant levels of cash flow due to our ability to pre-sell
tickets and receive customer deposits with long lead times ahead of sailing. Our debt financing is relatively low cost, with a weighted-average interest rate cost of 6.27% as of December 31, 2010. In addition, we believe that substantially all
of our income qualifies as shipping income and is tax exempt under Section 883 of the Code. As a result, we believe that we will generate substantial cash flow from operations that can be utilized to significantly de-lever our balance sheet
over time.

Highly Experienced Management Team

Our senior management team is comprised of experienced executives with an average of 12.5 years in the cruise, travel, leisure and hospitality-related industries. Since the Apollo Funds and the TPG
Viking Funds investment in January 2008, 25 of the top 35 members of our senior management team (including 10 of the top 12) have been newly recruited or promoted to their current position under the leadership of our President and Chief
Executive Officer, Kevin M. Sheehan. Their combined experience in related hospitality industries coupled with their financial expertise is a significant contributor to improving the operating and financial performance of our Company.

Strong and Experienced Shareholders

Our
shareholders or their affiliates have extensive experience investing in the cruise, leisure and travel-related industries. Affiliates of the Apollo Funds have invested significant equity and resources to the cruise and leisure industry with its
investment in Prestige Cruise Holdings, Inc. which operates through two distinct upscale cruise brands, Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises. In addition, affiliates of both Apollo and TPG Capital own Caesars Entertainment, with whom we
recently created a marketing alliance. Affiliates of TPG Capital are also significant investors in Sabre Holdings, a leading GDS (global distribution system) and parent of Travelocity.com. Genting HK, headquartered in Hong Kong, operates a leading
Asian cruise line with destinations in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan.

Our Business Strategies

We seek to attract vacationers by offering new products and services and creating differentiated itineraries in new markets through new and existing
modern ships with the aim of delivering a better, value-added, vacation experience to our customers relative to other broad-based or land-based leisure alternatives.

Attractive Product Offerings

We have a long history of product development within the
cruise industry as one of the most established consumer brands. We became the first cruise operator to buy a private island in the Bahamas to offer a private beach experience to our passengers; and we were the first to introduce a 2,000-Berth
megaship into the Caribbean market in 1980. More recently, we pioneered new concepts in cruising over the last decade with the development of Homeland Cruising and the launch of Freestyle Cruising.

We continue to enhance our product offerings with the delivery of Norwegian Epic in June 2010, which offers 21 dining options, a diverse range of
accommodations and what we believe is the widest array of entertainment at sea. In addition to several differentiated full-service complimentary dining rooms, Norwegian Epic also features specialty restaurants including a classic steakhouse, sushi,
Japanese teppanyaki, Brazilian churrascaria, Asian noodle bar, traditional Chinese, fine French and Italian restaurants. Guest accommodations on Norwegian Epic include the groundbreaking Studios, 128 cabins designed for solo travelers centered
around the Studio Lounge, a private two-story lounge for studio guests. On its top decks, Norwegian Epic offers a ship within a ship in the largest suite complex at sea; the exclusive Villas compound includes two decks with 52 villas and
penthouses, a private pool with multiple hot tubs and sundecks, a private fitness center and steam rooms, fine dining in the Epic Club restaurant, casual outdoor dining at the Courtyard Grill, and 24-hour concierge service, all exclusively for villa
and penthouse guests. Entertainment onboard Norwegian Epic includes a wide variety of branded entertainment for guests to choose from, including exclusive engagements with Blue Man Group, Cirque Dreams & Dinner, Legends in Concert,
Nickelodeon and the improvisational comedy troupe, The Second City.

Building on the success of Norwegian Epic, we are drawing on our legacy
of new product development to create two new next-generation Freestyle Cruising ships, scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2013 and 2014, respectively. These 4,000 Berth ships will include many of the most popular elements of
Norwegian Epic and the rest of our fleet together with new ground-breaking features, while keeping the consistent innovative spirit of Freestyle Cruising in the core of the design.

Maximize Net Yields

We are focused on
growing our revenue through various initiatives aimed at increasing our ticket prices and occupancy as well as onboard spending to drive higher overall Net Yields. To maximize passenger ticket revenue, our revenue management strategy is focused on
optimizing pricing and generating demand throughout the booking curve. We base-load our capacity by booking passengers as early before sailing as possible.

##### Table of Contents

Base-loading is a strategy by which we focus on selling inventory further from the cruise departure date by targeting sales and marketing tactics, such as full ship Charters and corporate
meetings which generate business with longer booking windows. Our base-loading strategy also includes strategic relationships with travel agencies and international tour operators, who commit to purchasing a certain level of inventory with long lead
times. Through base-loading, we believe we will increase our Net Yields by filling our ships earlier, rather than discounting close to sailing dates in order to achieve our targeted Load Factors. Our specific initiatives to achieve this include:



| |  |  | Casino Player Strategy. As part of this strategy, we have non-exclusive arrangements with approximately 90 casino partners worldwide
including Caesars Entertainment, an affiliate of both Apollo and TPG Capital, whereby loyal gaming customers are offered cruise reward certificates redeemable for cruises on our ships. Through property sponsored events and joint marketing programs,
we have the opportunity to market cruises to Caesars Entertainments customers. These arrangements with our casino partners have the dual benefit of filling open inventory and reaching customers expected to generate above average onboard
revenue through the casino and other onboard spending.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Strategic Relationships. Our base-loading strategy also includes strategic relationships with travel agencies and international tour
operators, who commit to purchasing a certain level of inventory with long lead times.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Charter, Meeting & Incentive (CM&I) Sales. We are increasing our focus on driving additional business through the
CM&I channel, which typically books very far in advance and can represent a significant portion of the ship, or even an entire sailing, in one transaction.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | PROS Yield Management System. In late 2009, we implemented the PROS yield management system which allows us to better analyze and maximize
our overall pricing decisions.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We continue to focus on various initiatives to drive increased onboard revenue across a
variety of areas. From the year ended December 31, 2007 to the year ended December 31, 2010, our net onboard and other revenue yield increased by approximately 24% from $42.86 to $53.06 primarily due to strong performance in casino,
beverage sales, specialty dining and shore excursions. Our strategy for further driving increased onboard revenue includes, among other things, generating additional casino revenue through our arrangements with our casino partners, including Caesars
Entertainment and Genting HK. These arrangements incorporate marketing resources to deliver cross-company advertising and marketing campaigns to promote our brand. We also focus on optimizing the utilization of our specialty restaurants that carry a
cover charge, pre-booking and pre-selling additional onboard activities and encouraging our staff to offer our passengers additional revenue generating products and services. In addition, the delivery of Norwegian Epic has created additional onboard
revenue opportunities through ticket sales and merchandising, based on our unique and premium entertainment offerings.

Improve Operating
Efficiency and Lower Costs

We are continually focused on driving financial improvement through a variety of cost savings initiatives.
These initiatives are focused on reducing costs while at the same time improving the overall product we deliver to our customers. Since the beginning of 2008, we have significantly reduced our operating cost base through various programs including
contract renegotiations, overhead rationalization, and fuel consumption reduction initiatives. We also typically hedge a majority of our near term fuel consumption in order to provide greater visibility of our fuel expense; as of December 31,
2010, we had hedged 57.0% of our expected 2011 fuel consumption. We have also reduced our maintenance expense as a result of our fleet renewal program, as younger, more modern ships are typically less costly to maintain than older ships. Beginning
in early 2008, we reduced our capacity in the Hawaii market, re-flagging and relocating two of three ships, which significantly reduced crew payroll expenses aboard those ships creating substantial margin expansion. We believe that our new corporate
culture of efficiency will drive further margin expansion as we continue to tightly manage our cost structure while optimizing Net Yield. In addition, we expect the economies of scale from our two newbuild ships to drive further operating
efficiencies over the long term.

Expand and Strengthen Our Product Distribution Channels

As part of our growth strategy, we are continually looking for ways to deepen and expand our customer sales channels. We restructured our sales and
marketing organization, which included the hiring of two Senior Vice Presidents and five Vice Presidents, to provide better focus on distribution through four primary channels: retail/travel agent, direct, international, and CM&I.



| |  |  | Retail/Travel Agent. We have implemented close to 100 individual projects specifically designed to improve our efficiency with the travel
agency channels and our guests, ranging from more timely commission payments to aggressive call center quality monitoring. We also restructured our travel agent sales force, allowing us to more effectively support the larger accounts, which
represent approximately 50% of our customers, with specific expertise and also gain access to a significantly larger number of travel partners through an outbound call center based in our Miami headquarters. We believe that our travel agent partners
have witnessed a material improvement in our business practices and overall communication since the arrival of our new management team.

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | Direct. We continue to grow our direct business through investments in our brand and our website as well as increasing our direct sales
force. Passengers booking directly with us tend to book earlier and in premium category inventory which provides higher Net Yields.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | International. We have an international sales presence, with over 145 people in Europe and representatives covering Latin America,
Australia and Asia. We are primarily focused on increasing our business in the European market, which has grown significantly in recent years but remains under-penetrated. In Europe, we now offer local itineraries year-round and our Freestyle
Cruising has been well received. We are in the process of expanding our direct sales force in Europe which will allow us to develop our direct distribution in Europe in a manner similar to our U.S. operation. In support of this European
strategy, we will deploy our newest and most sophisticated ship, Norwegian Epic, in Europe for an extended summer season beginning in May 2011. We are forging a closer distribution partnership with Genting HK, to develop product distribution across
the Asia Pacific region.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | CM&I. Our CM&I business focuses on full ship Charters as well as corporate meeting and incentive travel. These sales often have
very long lead times and generate a higher level of Net Yield than sales through our other channels.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Across every
distribution channel we are undertaking a major effort to grow demand with a targeted sales and marketing program for our premium stateroom categories, including our balcony and other premium stateroom categories, with a particular emphasis on our
suites and villa complexes, which have increased as a percentage of our total inventory as a result of our fleet renewal.

Our Fleet

Our ships are purpose-built ships that enable us to provide our customers with the ultimate Freestyle Cruising experience. Our
ships have state-of-the-art passenger amenities, including up to 21 dining options together with hundreds of private balcony cabins on each ship. As of December 31, 2010, 48% of our cabins have private balconies representing a higher mix of
outside cabins than the other contemporary brands. Private balcony cabins are very popular with passengers and offer the opportunity for increased revenue by allowing us to charge a premium. Five of our ships offer a complex of private courtyard
villas, each with up to approximately 570 square feet, which provide personal butler service and exclusive access to a private courtyard area with private pools, sundeck, hot tubs, and fitness center. In addition, six of our ships have luxury garden
villas with up to 6,694 square feet, making them the largest accomodations at sea. These luxury garden villas offer three separate bedroom areas, spacious living and dining room areas, as well as 24-hour, on-call butler and concierge service.

Continuing our tradition of new product development and the extension of the Norwegian Cruise Line brand, we took delivery of Norwegian Epic
in June 2010. Norwegian Epic offers our passengers itineraries to the western and eastern Caribbean as well as Europe. The ship offers our customers a large aqua park, sports complex, two three-lane bowling alleys and our two-story Wii Wall.
In addition, the ship features a spa facility and fitness center with more than 31,000 square feet. There are 21 dining options on Norwegian Epic offering one of the widest choices of dining experiences among the fleets of the Major North American
Cruise Brands. Exclusive entertainment is offered aboard Norwegian Epic with the addition of brand new entertainment choices including Blue Man Group, Cirque Dreams & Dinner, Legends in Concert and Nickelodeon. We offer world-class
entertainment in our jazz and blues club and our comedy club features the improvisational comedy troupe, The Second City. Norwegian Epic has been very well received by the market with the strongest bookings we have ever seen for a new ship, both in
terms of price and volume. This positive reception has also benefited the rest of our fleet, which experienced significant bookings due to the uplift that Norwegian Epic has created for our brand overall. We believe the premium cabin mix of
Norwegian Epic will drive further increases in Net Yield.

Building on the successful launch of our latest ship, Norwegian Epic, we recently
announced two new ships with approximately 4,000 Berths each, scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2013 and 2014, respectively.

Itineraries

We offer cruise itineraries ranging from one day to three weeks calling on over 125 worldwide locations, including destinations in the
Caribbean, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Mexico, Alaska, Europe, Hawaii, New England, Central America, North Africa and Scandinavia. We have developed, and are continuing to develop, innovative itineraries to position our ships in new and niche markets as
well as in the mainstream markets throughout the Americas and Europe. For the year ended December 31, 2010, approximately 54% of our itineraries, by Capacity Days, were in more exotic, under-penetrated and less traditional locations (areas
outside of the Caribbean and Bahamas) which we believe allows us to generate higher Net Yield.

Ports and Facilities

We have an agreement with the Government of Bermuda whereby two of our ships are permitted weekly calls in Bermuda through 2018 from Boston, Baltimore,
Charleston and New York. In addition, we own a private island in the Bahamas, Great Stirrup Cay, which we utilize as a port-of-call on some of our itineraries. We have a contract with the New York City Economic Development Corporation pursuant to
which we receive preferential berthing rights on specific piers at the citys passenger ship Terminals. These preferential berthing rights provide us with the ability to elect specific Terminals, piers, and operating days 15 months in advance
of such scheduled future sailings. Furthermore, we have contracts with the Port of New Orleans and the Port of Miami pursuant to which we receive preferential berths to the exclusion of other vessels for certain specified days of the week at the
cities cruise ship Terminals. The preferential berthing rights provide us with priority use of selected cruise ship Terminals and operating days 12 months in advance of such scheduled future sailings. We have a concession permit with the U.S.
National Park Service whereby our ships are permitted to call on Glacier Bay 22 times through September 30, 2019 during each summer cruise season. At present, we do not intend to acquire any port facilities. We believe that our facilities are
adequate for our current needs, and that we are capable of obtaining additional facilities as necessary. We initiated a $25.5 million renovation to our private island, Great Stirrup Cay, which includes a new dining and bar facility to enhance the
guest experience, as well as offering new activities such as wave runners, an aqua park and a stingray encounter experience. The enhancements are scheduled to be completed in phases through the end of 2011 and are expected to provide us with
additional revenue generating opportunities on the island.

Revenue Management Practices

Our cruise ticket prices generally include cruise fare and a wide variety of onboard activities and amenities, including meals and entertainment. In some
instances, cruise ticket prices include round-trip airfare to and from the port of embarkation. Prices vary depending on the particular cruise itinerary, cabin category selected and the time of year that the voyage takes place. We generate
additional revenue from casino operations, certain beverage sales, specialty dining, shore excursions, gift shop purchases, spa services and other similar items.

##### Table of Contents

Ticket Revenue

We base our ticket pricing and revenue management on a strategy that encourages travelers to book early and secure attractive savings. This is accomplished through a revenue management system designed to
maximize Net Yield by matching projected availability to anticipated future passenger demand. We perform extensive analyses of our databases in order to determine booking history and trends by sailing, cabin category, travel partner, market segment,
itinerary and distribution channel. In addition, we establish a set of cabin categories throughout each cruise ship and price our cruise fares on the basis of these cabin categories. Typically, the initial published fares are established 18 or more
months in advance of the departure of a cruise at a level which, under normal circumstances, would provide a high occupancy. If the rate at which cabin inventory is sold differs from expectations, we will raise or lower the prices of each cabin
category accordingly. This can be done through promotions, special rate codes, opening and closing categories, or price changes. Our revenue management tool, which is typical of what is used by our major competitors in North America, tracks and
forecasts overall booking demand and provides optimal pricing and selling limit recommendations on a daily basis. The system allows us to better optimize our booking curve and shorten the time to implement pricing decisions, and is designed to
optimize revenue for the full range of cabin categories, thereby reducing the need for last minute discounting to fill ships.

Onboard and
Other Revenue

Ticket prices typically include cruise accommodation, meals in certain dining facilities and many onboard activities such as
entertainment, pool-side activities and various sports programs. We earn additional revenue on our ships principally from casino operations, certain beverage sales, specialty dining, shore excursions, gift shop purchases, spa services and other
similar items. Onboard and other revenue is an important component of our revenue base representing 30.8% of our 2010 total revenue. To maximize onboard revenue, we use various cross-marketing and promotional tools and are supported by point-of-sale
systems permitting cashless transactions for the sale of these onboard products and services. Food and beverage, gaming and shore excursions are managed directly by the Company while retail shops, spa services, art auctions and internet
services are managed through contracts with third-party concessionaires. These contracts generally entitle us to a fixed percentage of the gross sales derived from these concessions.

Seasonality

The seasonality of the North American cruise industry generally results in the
greatest demand for cruises during the Northern Hemispheres summer months of June through August. This predictable seasonality in demand has resulted in fluctuations in our revenue and results of operations. The seasonality of our results is
increased due to ships being taken out of service for regularly scheduled Dry-docking, which we typically schedule during non-peak demand periods.

Sales and Marketing

Product Distribution Channels and Sales

We sell our product through four primary distribution channels: retail/travel agent, consumer direct, international and CM&I.

The retail/travel agent channel represents the majority of our ticket sales. Passengers utilizing this channel book their cruises through independent
travel agents who sell our itineraries on a non-exclusive, commission-based basis. Given the importance of the retail/travel agent channel, a major focus of our marketing strategy is motivating and supporting our travel agent partners. Our travel
partner base is comprised of an extensive network of approximately 20,000 independent travel agencies including brick and mortar, internet-based and home-based operators located in North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia.

We implemented dozens of projects specifically designed to improve efficiency with our travel partners and guests, ranging from more timely
commission payments to aggressive call center quality monitoring. We also restructured our travel agent sales force, allowing us to more effectively support the larger accounts with specific expertise and also gain access to a significantly larger
number of travel partners through an outbound call center.

In addition to our focus on retail sales, we continue to grow our consumer direct
business through investments in our brand and our website as well as increases in our direct sales force. Passengers booking directly with us tend to book earlier and in higher category inventory.

Outside of the U.S., we have an international sales presence with over 145 people in Europe and representatives covering Latin America, Australia and
Asia. We are primarily focused on increasing our business in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe markets, which have grown significantly in recent years and where we now offer local itineraries year-round. We have modified our 2010 itineraries
to increase demand by appealing to guests in different markets including the UK, Italy, Germany and Spain. We have had success with our base-loading initiatives in Europe, where our Freestyle Cruising has been well received, and are in
the process of building our direct sales force in Europe.

Finally, our CM&I business focuses on full ship Charters as well as corporate
meeting and incentive travel. These sales often have very long lead times and generate a higher level of Net Yield than sales through our other channels.

##### Table of Contents

Across all channels, we are also undertaking a major effort to grow demand with a targeted sales and
marketing program for our premium stateroom categories, including our suites and villa complexes, which have increased significantly as a percentage of our total inventory as a result of our fleet renewal.

Supporting our sales efforts across several distribution channels are our call centers located in Florida, Arizona, the UK and Germany with approximately
650 personnel oriented towards servicing travel agents and direct customer calls. Additionally, we have an outsourced relationship with a firm that manages an additional location for us in Guatemala. We believe that our diverse locations should
minimize risks associated with natural disasters, labor markets and other factors which could impact the operation of our call centers.

Marketing, Brand Communications and Advertising

Our marketing department works to enhance our brand awareness and increase levels of engagement and understanding of our product and services among consumers, trade and travel partners. Core areas within
the department include brand strategy, advertising and media, marketing communications, direct marketing, customer loyalty, website/interactive and market research. All marketing supports our comprehensive brand platform created expressly to
leverage our unique Freestyle Cruising concept. Our brand campaign started in late 2006 and has been successful in differentiating us from our competitors. The media mix has included television, print, radio, digital, e-mail and direct
mail. We also introduced a new component to our travel partner marketing, NCL University online, which is an informative travel partner education program.

We have made significant progress in expanding our marketing reach with our online products and services. Our website, www.ncl.com, serving both our passengers and travel agency partners, has been a major
focus of this momentum. We are continually enhancing our website to ensure that it communicates our brand promise, promotes relevant product information and aligns with our Freestyle Cruising message. Our consumer and travel agency
partner booking engine provides passengers and travel agency partners the ability to shop and purchase any of our worldwide cruise itineraries with a more intuitive and informative online experience. We continue to develop additional functionality
and tools to serve our passengers and travel agency partners.

Sustainable customer loyalty of our past passengers is an important element of
our marketing strategy. We believe that attending to our past passengers needs and motivations creates a cost-effective means of attracting business, particularly to our new itineraries, because past passengers are familiar with our brands,
products and services and often return to our ships. The Norwegian Cruise Line loyalty program is known as Latitudes. Members of this program receive periodic mailings with informative destination information and cruise promotions that include
special pricing, shipboard credits, cabin upgrades and onboard recognition. Avid cruisers can use our co-branded credit card to earn upgrades and discounts.

Customer feedback and research is also a critically important element in the development of our overall marketing and business strategies. In 2008, we instituted a process for measuring and understanding
key drivers of customer loyalty and satisfaction from our passengers that provides valuable insights into the cruise experience. We regularly initiate custom research studies among both consumers and travel partners to assess the impact of various
programs and/or to solicit feedback that inform future direction.

Ship Operations and Cruise Infrastructure

Ship Maintenance

In addition to routine
maintenance and repairs performed on an ongoing basis and in accordance with applicable requirements, each of our ships is generally taken out of service, approximately every 24 to 60 months, for a period of one or more weeks for scheduled
maintenance work, repairs and improvements performed in Dry-dock. Dry-dock duration is a statutory requirement controlled under the chapters of SOLAS and to some extent the International Load Lines Convention. Under these regulations, it is required
that a passenger ship Dry-dock twice in 5 years and the maximum duration between each Dry-dock cannot exceed 3 years. However, most of our ships qualify under a special exemption provided by the Bahamas (flag state) after meeting certain criteria
set forth by the Bahamas to Dry-dock once in every 5 years. To the extent practical, each ships crew, catering and hotel staff remain with the ship during the Dry-docking period and assist in performing maintenance and repair work. We do not
earn revenue while ships are Dry-docked. Accordingly, Dry-docking work is typically performed during non-peak demand periods to minimize the adverse effect on revenue that results from ships being out of service. Dry-dockings are typically scheduled
in spring or autumn and depend on shipyard availability.

Suppliers

Our largest capital expenditures are for ship construction and acquisition. Our largest operating expenditures are for fuel, passenger food and beverage, travel agent services and advertising and
marketing. Most of the supplies that we require are available from numerous sources at competitive prices. In addition, owing to the large quantities that we purchase, we can obtain favorable prices for many of our supplies. Our purchases are
denominated primarily in U.S. dollars. Payment terms granted by the suppliers are generally customary terms for the cruise industry.

Crew and Passenger Safety

We place the utmost importance on the safety of our passengers and crew. We conduct an ongoing safety campaign, with the objective of training ship personnel to enhance their awareness of safety practices
and policies onboard.

Our fleet is equipped with modern navigational control and fire prevention and control systems. In recent years, our
ships have continuously been upgraded and include internal and external regulatory audits. We have installed HI-FOG sprinklers in the engine rooms of the ships in our fleet, as required by the IMO regulation. The navigation centers on our ships are
also equipped with voyage data recorders (VDRs), which are similar in concept to the black boxes used in commercial aircraft. The VDRs permit us to analyze safety incidents. A majority of our ships utilize operational closed circuit
television systems that enhance our training, assist in investigations and support the safety of passengers and crew.

We have developed the
Safety and Environmental Management System (SEMS). This advanced, intranet-based system establishes the policies, procedures, training, qualification, quality, compliance, audit, and self-improvement standards for all employees, both
shipboard and shoreside. It also provides real-time reports and information to support the fleet and risk management decisions. Through this system, our senior managers, as well as ship management, can focus on consistent, high quality operation of
the fleet. The SEMS is approved and audited annually by our classification society Det Norske Veritas (DNV), and the system also undergoes regular internal audits as well as an annual audit by the U.S. Coast Guard. We screen and train our crew to
ensure crew familiarity and proficiency with the safety equipment onboard. Various safety measures have been implemented on all of our ships and additional personnel have been appointed in our ship operations departments. Furthermore, Norwegian
Cruise Line is an ISO 14001 certified company. The ISO 14001 standard is a voluntary standard for environmental practices. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with current health and safety rules and regulations. However, such laws are
constantly evolving and there can be no guarantee that changes in these laws and regulations or their enforcement will not require significant additional costs in the future.

Insurance

We maintain marine insurance on the hull and machinery of our ships, which are
maintained in amounts related to the estimated market value of each ship. The coverage for each of the hull and machinery policies is maintained with syndicates of insurance underwriters from the European and U.S. insurance markets. In addition to
the marine insurance coverage on the hull and machinery of our ships discussed above, we seek to maintain comprehensive insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates and believe that our current coverage is adequate to protect against most of
the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of our business. We carry:



| |  |  | protection and indemnity insurance (that covers third-party liabilities) including insurance against risk of fuel spill;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | hull and machinery insurance, war risk insurance, including terrorist risk insurance, on each ship in an amount equal to the total insured hull value,
subject to certain coverage limits, deductibles and exclusions. The terms of our marine war risk policies include provisions where underwriters can give seven days notice to the insured that the policies will be cancelled, which is typical for
policies in the marine industry;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | tour operator insurance;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | insurance for cash onboard; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | insurance for our shoreside property and general liability risks.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that all of our insurance coverage, including those noted above, is subject to market-standard limitations, exclusions and deductible levels.

The Athens Convention Relating to the Carriage of Passengers and Their Luggage by Sea (1974) (the Athens Convention) and the Protocol to
the Athens Convention Relating to the Carriage of Passengers and Their Luggage by Sea (1976) (the 1976 Protocol) are generally applicable to passenger ships. The U.S. has not ratified the Athens Convention; however, with limited
exceptions, the 1976 Protocol to the Athens Convention may be contractually enforced with respect to cruises that do not call at a U.S. port. The International Maritime Organization Diplomatic Conference agreed to a new protocol to the Athens
Convention on November 1, 2002 (the 2002 Protocol). The 2002 Protocol, which has not yet entered into force, establishes for the first time a level of compulsory insurance which must be maintained by passenger ship operators with a
right of direct action against the insurer. The timing of the entry into force of the 2002 Protocol, if achieved at all, is unknown. No assurance can be given that affordable and secure insurance markets will be available to provide the level and
type of coverage required under the 2002 Protocol. If the 2002 Protocol enters into force, we expect insurance costs would increase.

Trademarks

We own a number of
registered trademarks relating to, among other things, the names NORWEGIAN CRUISE LINE, NCL and the NCL logo, the names of our ships (except where trademark applications for these have been filed and are pending), incentive
programs and specialty services rendered on our ships. In addition, we own registered trademarks relating to the FREESTYLE

family of names, including, FREESTYLE CRUISING, FREESTYLE DINING and FREESTYLE VACATION. Other significant marks include our SCHOOL OF FISH DESIGN marks that
display one fish swimming against a school of fish and NCL slogan marks, e.g., NCL. WHERE YOURE FREE TO WHATEVER, which underscore our FREESTYLE message. We believe our NORWEGIAN CRUISE LINE,
NCL, FREESTYLE CRUISING, FREESTYLE DINING, FREESTYLE VACATION and NCL slogan trademarks and the names of our ships as well as the SCHOOL OF FISH DESIGN and NCL logos are widely recognized
throughout North America and Europe and have considerable value.

Competition

We compete in the multi-night global cruise vacation industry. Although this sector has grown significantly over the past decade, it still remains a relatively small part of the broadly defined global
vacation market that has historically been dominated by land-based vacation alternatives. The different cruise brands that make up the global cruise vacation industry historically have been segmented by product offering and service quality into
contemporary, premium and luxury cruises. The contemporary segment generally includes cruises on larger ships that last seven days or less, provides a casual ambiance and is less expensive than the premium or luxury segments. The premium segment
generally is characterized by cruises that last from seven to 14 nights with a higher quality product offering than the contemporary segment, appealing to a more affluent demographic. The luxury segment generally offers the highest level of services
and quality with longer cruises on the smallest ships.

We compete primarily with the other Major North American Cruise Brands, which together
comprise approximately 90% of the North American cruise market as measured by total Berths. These brands include Carnival Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean International which comprise the contemporary segment and Holland America, Princess Cruises
and Celebrity Cruises which are part of the premium segment. As of December 31, 2010, Norwegian Cruise Line accounted for approximately 12% of the Major North American Cruise Brands capacity in terms of Berths. We compete against all of
these operators principally on the quality of our ships, our differentiated product offering, selection of our itineraries and value proposition of our cruises.

We also face competition from non-cruise vacation alternatives, including beach resorts, golf and tennis resorts, theme parks, land-based gaming operations, and other hotels and tourist destinations.

Regulatory Issues

Registration of Our Ships

Ten of the
ships that we currently operate are registered in the Bahamas. One of our ships, Pride of America, is a U.S.-flagged ship. Our ships registered in the Bahamas are inspected at least annually pursuant to Bahamian requirements. Our U.S.-registered
ship is subject to laws and regulations of the U.S. federal government and to various U.S. federal regulatory agencies, including, but not limited to, the U.S. Public Health Service and the U.S. Coast Guard. Our U.S.-flagged ship is also regulated
by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and U.S. Department of Labor.

Our entire fleet is also subject to the health and safety
laws and regulations of the various port locales where the ships dock. The U.S. and the Bahamas are members of the IMO and have adopted and implemented the IMO conventions relating to ocean-going passenger ships. U.S. law generally requires ships
transporting passengers exclusively between and among ports in the U.S. to be built entirely in the U.S., documented under U.S. law, crewed by Americans and owned by entities that are at least 75% owned and controlled by U.S. citizens. We have been
granted specific authority to operate in and among the islands of Hawaii under legislation, known as the Hawaii Cruise Ship Provision, which was part of the Consolidated Appropriations Resolution, 2003 enacted in 2003 (Public
Law 108-7, Division B, Title II, General ProvisionsDepartment of Commerce, Section 211 (February 20, 2003) (117 Stat. 11,79)). The Hawaii Cruise Ship Provision permitted two partially completed ships (originally contracted for
construction in a U.S. shipyard by an unrelated party), to be completed in a shipyard outside of the U.S. and documented under the U.S. flag even if the owner does not meet the 75% U.S. ownership requirement, provided that the direct owning entity
is organized under the laws of the U.S. and meets certain U.S. citizen officer and director requirements. Presently, only one of the two ships completed in compliance with the Hawaii Cruise Ship Provision, Pride of America, operates as a
U.S.-flagged ship. The other, Pride of Hawaii, was transferred to the Bahamas registry and operates as Norwegian Jade. The Hawaii Cruise Ship Provision also authorized the re-documentation under the U.S. flag of one additional foreign-built
cruise ship for operation between U.S. ports in the islands of Hawaii, Pride of Aloha. In May 2008, Pride of Aloha was transferred to the Bahamas registry and operates as Norwegian Sky. The Hawaii Cruise Ship Provision imposes certain requirements,
including that any non-warranty work be performed in the U.S., except in case of emergency or lack of availability, and that the ship operates primarily between and among the islands of Hawaii. As a result of this exemption, our U.S.-flagged ship
deployed in Hawaii is able to cruise between U.S. ports in Hawaii without the need to call at a foreign port.

Health and Environment

Our various ports of call subject our ships to international and U.S. laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including
but not limited to MARPOL. Under such laws and regulations, we are prohibited from, among other things, discharging certain materials, such as petrochemicals and plastics, into the waterways. Specifically, in the U.S., we comply with the newly
implemented U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys Vessel General Discharge permit.

##### Table of Contents

Also in the U.S., we must meet the U.S. Public Health Services requirements, including ratings by
inspectors from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the FDA. We believe we rate at the top of the range of CDC and FDA scores achieved by the major cruise lines. In addition, the cruise industry and the U.S. Public
Health Service have agreed on regulations for food, water and hygiene to assist cruise lines in achieving the highest health and sanitation standards on cruise ships.

Pursuant to FMC and U.S. Coast Guard regulations, we have covered our financial responsibility with respect to death or injury to passengers and water pollution by providing required guarantees from our
insurers with respect to such potential liabilities. In addition, we are required to obtain certificates from the U.S. Coast Guard relating to our ability to satisfy liabilities in cases of water pollution. We currently operate under an
Environmental Management Plan that is incorporated into the SEMS program.

Permits for Glacier Bay, Alaska

In connection with certain of our Alaska cruise operations, we rely on concession permits from the U.S. National Park Service to operate our ships in
Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. We currently hold a concession permit allowing for 22 calls per summer cruising season through September 30, 2019. However, there can be no assurance that such permit will be renewed when necessary or
that regulations relating to the renewal of such permit will remain unchanged in the future.

Security and Safety

Commencing July 1, 1998, pursuant to provisions adopted by the IMO, all cruise ships were required to be certified as having safety procedures that
comply with the requirements of the International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention (ISM Code). We have obtained certificates certifying that our ships are in compliance with the ISM Code. Each
such certificate is granted for a five-year period and is subject to periodic verification.

We believe that our ships currently comply with
all requirements of the IMO and the U.S. and Bahamian flags, including but not limited to SOLAS, MARPOL and STCW. The SOLAS requirements are amended and extended by the IMO from time to time. For example, the International Port and Ship Facility
Code (ISPS Code), was adopted by the IMO in December 2002 and provides for measures strengthening maritime security and places new requirements on governments, port authorities and shipping companies in relation to security issues on
ships and in ports. We have been in compliance with all requirements of the ISPS Code imposed upon us as of the implementation date of July 1, 2004.

In addition to the requirements of the ISPS Code, the U.S. Congress enacted the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 (MTSA), which implements a number of security measures at ports in
the U.S. including measures that apply to ships registered outside the U.S. docking at ports in the U.S. The U.S. Coast Guard has published its own set of MTSA regulations that require a security plan for every ship entering the territorial waters
of the U.S., provide for identification requirements for ships entering such waters and establish various procedures for the identification of crew members on such ships. Our fleet is in compliance with the requirements imposed upon it by the MTSA
and the U.S. Coast Guard regulations. The Transportation Workers Identification Credential (TWIC) is a new federal requirement for accessibility into and onto U.S. ports and U.S.-flagged ships. We are in compliance with this requirement.

Amendments to SOLAS required that ships constructed in accordance with pre-1974 SOLAS requirements install automatic sprinkler systems by
December 31, 2005. Failure to comply with the SOLAS requirements with respect to any ship will, among other things, restrict the operations of such ship in the U.S. and many other jurisdictions. We are in compliance with these requirements.

IMO adopted an amendment to SOLAS which requires partial bulkheads on cabin balconies to be of non-combustible construction. Existing ships
are required to comply with this SOLAS amendment by the first statutory survey after July 1, 2008. All of our ships are in compliance with the SOLAS amendment. The new SOLAS regulation on Long-Range Identification and Tracking (LRIT) entered
into force on January 1, 2008. This allows SOLAS contracting governments a year to set up and test the LRIT system and ship operators a year to start fitting the necessary equipment or upgrading so that their ships can transmit LRIT
information. Ships constructed on or after December 31, 2008 must be fitted with a system to automatically transmit the identity of the ship, the position of the ship (latitude and longitude) and the date and time of the position. Ships
constructed before December 31, 2008 must be fitted with the equipment not later than the first survey of the radio installation after December 31, 2008. We are in compliance with these requirements.

Financial Requirements

The FMC requires
evidence of financial responsibility for those offering transportation on passenger ships operating out of U.S. ports to indemnify passengers in the event of non-performance of the transportation. Accordingly, we are required to maintain a $15.0
million third-party performance guarantee on our behalf in respect of liabilities for non-performance of transportation and other obligations to passengers. Proposed regulations would revise the financial requirements with respect to both
death/injury and non-performance coverages. Also we have a legal requirement for us to maintain a security guarantee based on cruise business originated from the United Kingdom and have a bond with the Association of British Travel Agents currently
valued at British Pound Sterling 2.1 million. We also are required to establish financial responsibility by other jurisdictions to meet liability in the event of non-performance of our obligations to passengers from those jurisdictions.

##### Table of Contents

From time to time, various other regulatory and legislative changes have been or may in the future be
proposed that may have an effect on our operations in the U.S. and the cruise industry in general.

Taxation

Taxation of Operating Income: In General

This discussion is based on the Code as in effect on the date of this filing, existing final and temporary regulations thereunder, and current
administrative rulings and court decisions, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Changes in these authorities may cause the tax consequences to vary substantially from the consequences described below. The following
discussion is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to us.

Unless exempt from U.S. federal income taxation, a foreign corporation is subject to U.S. federal income tax in respect of its shipping income that is derived from sources within the U.S.
Currently, we are a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If our partners fail to qualify for an exemption for our U.S. sourced shipping income, they will be subject to taxation in the U.S. on such income. We are permitted to make tax
distributions to our shareholders to pay such taxes. If our proposed public offering is consummated, then we will become a corporation and on a going forward basis, we and our subsidiaries will be required to qualify for an exemption in order to
avoid U.S. taxation of our U.S.-sourced shipping income.

Generally, shipping income is any income that is derived from the use of
vessels, from the hiring or leasing of vessels for use on a time, voyage or bareboat charter basis or from the performance of services directly related to those uses. For these purposes, shipping income attributable to transportation that begins or
ends, but that does not both begin and end, in the U.S., which we refer to as U.S.- source international shipping income, will be considered to be 50% derived from sources within the U.S.

The legislative history of the transportation income source rules suggests that a cruise that begins and ends in a U.S. port, but that calls on one or more foreign ports, will derive U.S.-source income
only from the first and last legs of such cruise. However, since there are no U.S. Treasury Regulations or other IRS guidance with respect to these rules, the applicability of the transportation income source rules described above is not free from
doubt.

No portion of shipping income attributable to transportation exclusively between non-U.S. ports will be considered to be derived from
sources within the U.S. Such shipping income will not be subject to any U.S. federal income tax. Shipping income attributable to transportation exclusively between U.S. ports will be considered to be 100% derived from U.S. sources.

Unless exempt from tax under Section 883 of the Code, any U.S.-sourced shipping income or any other income that is considered to be effectively
connected income, would be subject to the net tax regime. Our U.S.-source shipping income is considered effectively connected income if we have, or are considered to have, a fixed place of business in the U.S. involved in the earning of U.S.-source
shipping income, and substantially all of our U.S.-source shipping income is attributable to regularly scheduled transportation, such as the operation of a vessel that follows a published schedule with repeated sailings at regular intervals between
the same points for voyages that begin or end in the U.S. If we do not have a fixed place of business in the U.S. or substantially all of our income is not derived from regularly scheduled transportation, the income will generally not be considered
to be effectively connected income, and the four percent tax regime will apply.

The U.S.-source portion of our income that is not shipping
income (including our U.S.-flagged operations) is generally subject to the net tax regime. U.S. Treasury Regulations list several items of income which are not considered to be incidental to the international operation of ships and, to the extent
derived from U.S. sources, are subject to U.S. federal income taxes. Income items considered non-incidental to the international operation of ships include income from the sale of single-day cruises, shore excursions, air and other transportation,
and pre- and post-cruise land packages. Currently, these taxes, if any, would generally be imposed on our shareholders. We are permitted to distribute funds to our shareholders to pay such taxes, or in some cases, pursuant to Section 1446 of
the Code, we may withhold such taxes at the partnership level. If we become a corporation pursuant to our initial public offering (as discussed herein), these taxes would be imposed directly on us and our subsidiaries.

Exemption of Operating Income from U.S. Federal Income Taxation

Under Section 883 of the Code and the related regulations, a foreign corporation will be exempt from U.S. federal income taxation on its U.S.-source international shipping income if: (a) it is
organized in a qualified foreign country, which is one that grants an



24



---

##### Table of Contents

equivalent exemption from tax to corporations organized in the U.S. in respect of each category of shipping income for which exemption is being claimed under Section 883 of the
Code; and (b) either: (1) more than 50% of the value of its stock is beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by qualified shareholders, which includes individuals who are residents of a qualified foreign country;
(2) one or more classes of its stock representing, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the combined voting power and value of all classes of its stock are primarily and regularly traded on one or more established securities markets
in a qualified foreign country or in the U.S.; or (3) it is a controlled foreign corporation and it satisfies an ownership test. In addition, U.S. Treasury regulations require a foreign corporation and certain of its direct and
indirect shareholders to satisfy detailed substantiation and reporting requirements.

As described above, we are currently a partnership for
U.S. federal income tax purposes. An entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not a taxable entity and incurs no U.S. federal or state income tax liability. Instead, each partner is required to take into
account its allocable share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the partnership in computing its U.S. federal income tax liability, regardless of whether or not cash distributions are made. In addition, as a partnership, eligibility for
the exemption under Section 883 of the Code for our international shipping income is tested by reference to our shareholders rather than to us. Each of our shareholders must meet the requirements of Section 883 discussed above in order for
the exemption to apply to the shipping income allocated to such shareholder. If any of our shareholders were to fail to qualify for the exemption under Section 883 of the Code, such shareholders allocable share of our U.S.-source income
would be subject to either the net tax regime or to the four percent tax regime, as discussed above. We are permitted to make tax distributions in respect of any such income to our shareholders (or, in some cases, pursuant to Section 1446 of
the Code, withhold such taxes at the partnership level).

We believe and have taken the position that substantially all of our income derived
from the international operation of ships is properly categorized as shipping income and that we do not have a material amount of non-qualifying income. It is possible, however, that a much larger percentage of our income does not qualify (or will
not qualify) as shipping income. Moreover, even if our interpretation of Section 883 is correct, because we are currently treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the exemption for shipping income is based on our
shareholders satisfying complex stock ownership tests under Section 883 of the Code as described above. There are factual circumstances beyond our control, including changes in the direct and indirect owners of our shares that could cause our
shareholders to lose the benefit of this tax exemption. Finally, any changes in our operations could significantly increase our exposure to either the net income tax regime or to the four percent tax regime (either by increasing our permitted tax
distributions to our shareholders and/or our required withholding in respect of shareholder level taxes, or by increasing our taxes directly (if our public offering is consummated)), and we can give no assurances on this matter.

If our initial public offering is consummated, we would become a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. At such time, we (as opposed to our
shareholders) would be required to satisfy the complex stock ownership tests under Section 883 of the Code. If we or any of our subsidiaries were not to qualify for the exemption under Section 883 of the Code, our or such subsidiarys
U.S.-source income would be subject to either the net tax regime or four percent tax regime (as discussed above). We expect that we and our subsidiaries will satisfy the stock ownership tests imposed under Section 883 following an initial
public offering and therefore expect that we will qualify for the exemption under Section 883. However, as discussed above, there are factual circumstances beyond our control that could cause us to not meet the stock ownership tests. Therefore,
we can give no assurances on this matter.

U.S. Taxation of Gain on Sale of Vessels

Provided our partners qualify (or we and our subsidiaries qualify following a public offering) for exemption from tax under Section 883 of the Code
in respect of our shipping income, gain from the sale of a vessel likewise should generally be exempt from tax under Section 883 of the Code. If, however, our gain does not, for whatever reason, qualify for exemption under Section 883 of
the Code, then such gain could be subject to either the net tax regime or four percent tax regime (determined under rules different from those discussed above).

Certain State, Local and Non-U.S. Tax Matters

We may be subject to state, local and
non-U.S. income or non-income taxes in various jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business, own property or reside. We may be required to file tax returns in some or all of those jurisdictions. Our state, local or non-U.S. tax
treatment may not conform to the U.S. federal income tax treatment discussed above. We may be required to pay non-U.S. taxes on dispositions of foreign property or operations involving foreign property that may give rise to non-U.S. income or other
tax liabilities in amounts that could be substantial.

The various tax regimes to which we are currently subject result in a relatively low
effective tax rate on our worldwide income. These tax regimes, however, are subject to change. Moreover, we may become subject to new tax regimes and may be unable to take advantage of favorable tax provisions afforded by current or future law.

U.S. Federal Income TaxationU.S.-Flagged Operation

Through 2009, income derived from our U.S.-flagged operation, net of applicable deductions, generally is subject to U.S. federal income taxation
(generally at a rate of 35%) and state and local taxes. U.S.-source dividends and interest paid by our U.S.-flagged operation generally would have been subject to a 30% withholding tax, unless exempt under one of various exceptions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Net
Revenue, Net Yield, Net Cruise Cost and EBITDA to enable us to analyze our performance. We utilize Net Revenue and Net Yield to manage our business on a day-to-day basis and believe that they are the most relevant measures of our revenue performance
because they reflect the revenue earned by us net of significant variable costs and are commonly used in the cruise industry to measure revenue performance. In measuring our ability to control costs in a manner that positively impacts net income, we
believe changes in Net Cruise Cost and Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel to be the most relevant indicators of our performance and are commonly used in the cruise industry as a measurement of costs.

EBITDA is used by us to measure our business performance. We believe EBITDA, when considered along with other performance measures, is a useful measure
as it reflects certain operating drivers of our business, such as sales growth, operating costs, marketing, general and administrative expense and other operating income and expense. EBITDA is also one of the measures used by us to calculate
incentive compensation for management-level employees. This non-GAAP financial measure has certain material limitations, including:



| |  |  | It does not include net interest expense. As we have borrowed money for general corporate purposes, interest expense is a necessary element of our
costs and ability to generate profits and cash flows; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | It does not include depreciation and amortization expense. As we use capital assets, depreciation and amortization are necessary elements of our costs
and ability to generate profits and cash flows.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We compensate for these limitations by using EBITDA as only one of several
measures for evaluating our business performance. In addition, capital expenditures, which impact depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and income tax expense, are reviewed separately by us. We believe EBITDA can provide a more
complete understanding of the underlying operating results and trends and an enhanced overall understanding of our financial performance and prospects for the future. EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or cash flows from operations
or measures comparable to net income as it does not take into account certain requirements such as capital expenditures and related depreciation, principal and interest payments and tax payments.

Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other companies within our industry. Please see a historical reconciliation of these measures to
items in our consolidated financial statements below in the Results of Operations section.

Overview

Revenue from our cruise and cruise-related activities are categorized by us as passenger ticket revenue and onboard and other
revenue. Passenger ticket revenue and onboard and other revenue vary according to the size of the ship in operation, the length of cruises operated and the markets in which the ship operates. Our revenue is seasonal based on demand for
cruises, which has historically been strongest during the summer months.

##### Table of Contents

Passenger ticket revenue primarily consists of revenue for accommodations, meals in certain restaurants on
the ship, certain onboard entertainment, and includes revenue for service charges and air and land transportation to and from the ship to the extent passengers purchase these items from us. Passenger ticket revenue is generally collected from
passengers prior to their departure on the cruise.

Onboard and other revenue primarily consists of revenue from gaming, beverage sales,
specialty dining, shore excursions, retail sales and spa services. We record onboard revenue from onboard activities we perform directly or that are performed by independent concessionaires, from which we receive a share of their revenue.

Our cruise operating expense is classified as follows:



| |  |  | Commissions, transportation and other consists of direct costs associated with passenger ticket revenue. These costs include travel agent commissions,
air and land transportation expenses, costs related to service charges, credit card fees and certain port expenses.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Onboard and other primarily consists of direct costs that are incurred in connection with onboard and other revenue. These include costs incurred in
connection with shore excursions, beverage sales and specialty dining.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Payroll and related consists of the cost of wages and benefits for shipboard employees.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Fuel includes fuel costs, the impact of certain fuel hedges, and fuel delivery costs.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Food consists of food costs for passengers and crew.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other consists of repairs and maintenance (including Dry-docking costs), ship insurance, ship Charter costs and other ship expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP in the U.S. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods
presented. We rely on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances to make these estimates and judgments. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. We believe that
the following critical accounting policies affect the significant estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. These critical accounting policies, which are presented in detail in the notes to our audited consolidated
financial statements, relate to ship accounting, asset impairment and contingencies.

Ship Accounting

Ships represent our most significant assets, and we record them at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of ships is computed on a
straight-line basis over the estimated service lives of primarily 30 years after a 15% reduction for the estimated residual value of the ship. Improvement costs that we believe add value to our ships are capitalized to the ship and depreciated over
the improvements estimated useful lives. Repairs and maintenance activities are charged to expense as incurred. We account for Dry-docking costs under the direct expense method which requires us to expense all Dry-docking costs as incurred.

We determine the useful life of our ships based primarily on our estimates of the average useful life of the ships major component
systems, such as cabins, main diesels, main electric, superstructure and hull. In addition, we consider the impact of anticipated changes in the vacation market and technological conditions and historical useful lives of similarly-built ships. Given
the large and complex nature of our ships, our accounting estimates related to ships and determinations of ship improvement costs to be capitalized require considerable judgment and are inherently uncertain. Should certain factors or circumstances
cause us to revise our estimate of ship service lives or projected residual values, depreciation expense could be materially lower or higher. If circumstances cause us to change our assumptions in making determinations as to whether ship
improvements should be capitalized, the amounts we expense each year as repairs and maintenance costs could increase, partially offset by a decrease in depreciation expense. If we reduced our estimated average 30-year ship service life by one year,
depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 would have increased by $4.6 million. In addition, if our ships were estimated to have no residual value, depreciation expense for the same period would have increased by $23.2 million.

We believe our estimates for ship accounting are reasonable and our methods are consistently applied. We believe that depreciation expense is
based on a rational and systematic method to allocate our ships costs to the periods that benefit from the ships usage.

Asset Impairment

We review our long-lived assets, principally ships, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped and
evaluated at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. We consider historical performance and future estimated results in our evaluation of potential
impairment and then compare the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, we
measure the amount of the impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. We estimate fair value based on the best information available making whatever estimates, judgments and projections considered necessary. The
estimation of fair value is generally measured by discounting expected future cash flows at discount rates commensurate with the risk involved.

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived assets, principally trade names, are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis or earlier if there is an event or
change in circumstances that would indicate that the carrying value of these assets could not be fully recovered. We believe our estimates and judgments with respect to our long-lived assets, principally ships, and goodwill and other
indefinite-lived intangible assets are reasonable. Nonetheless, if there was a material change in assumptions used in the determination of such fair values or if there is a material change in the conditions or circumstances that influence such
assets, we could be required to record an impairment charge.

Contingencies

Periodically, we assess potential liabilities related to any lawsuits or claims brought against us or any asserted claims, including tax, legal and/or environmental matters. Although it is typically very
difficult to determine the timing and ultimate outcome of such actions, we use our best judgment to determine if it is probable that we will incur an expense related to the settlement or final adjudication of such matters and whether a reasonable
estimation of such probable loss, if any, can be made. In assessing probable losses, we take into consideration estimates of the amount of insurance recoveries, if any. In accordance with the guidance on accounting for contingencies, we accrue a
liability when we believe a loss is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Due to the inherent uncertainties related to the eventual outcome of litigation and potential insurance recoveries, although we believe that our
estimates and judgments are reasonable, it is possible that certain matters may be resolved for amounts materially different from any estimated provisions or previous disclosures.

Executive Overview

Total revenue increased 8.5% to $2,012.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2010 compared to $1,855.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased to $1,479.3 million from $1,319.8 million in the same period in 2009 with the addition of
Norwegian Epic to the fleet in June 2010 together with an improvement in Net Yield of 7.7%.

Operating income increased 34.4% to $230.2
million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $171.4 million in the same period in 2009. A 23.6% improvement in EBITDA was achieved for the same period as revenues increased due to an increase in capacity, passenger ticket pricing and onboard
revenue. Our cost containment measures continued to have an impact even with the increase in the cost of fuel.

In September 2010, we reached
an agreement with Meyer Werft GmbH of Papenburg, Germany to build two new cruise ships with financing commitments in place from a syndicate of banks for export credit financing. The new ships are scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2013
and 2014, respectively. Our financing commitments provide for financing for approximately 90% of the contract price of the two ships. Each ship will approximate 143,500 Gross Tons and 4,000 Berths with an aggregate contract price of the two ships of
approximately 1.2 billion, or $1.6 billion based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010. This is approximately 155,000 per Berth, or $207,000 per Berth based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of
December 31, 2010, which we believe compares favorably against other recent newbuild ship orders in the industry.

In November 2010, we
issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.50% Senior Notes due 2018 in a private offering which has registration rights. The net proceeds from this transaction were used to repay portions of our then outstanding indebtedness.

Proposed Initial Public Offering

On
October 26, 2010, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 for an initial public offering of our equity securities. We expect to use the net proceeds from the initial public offering to pay down our debt, to fund future capital
expenditures and for general corporate purposes. However, there is no assurance regarding the timing of an initial public offering or whether it will be completed. The securities being offered in our initial public offering can only be offered by a
prospectus and this annual report shall not be deemed to be an offer of any such securities.

Year Ended December 31, 2010 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2009

Revenue

Total revenue increased
8.5% in 2010 compared to 2009. Net Revenue increased 12.1% in 2010, primarily due to an increase in Net Yield of 7.7% and an increase in Capacity Days of 4.0%. The increase in Net Yield was due to an increase in passenger ticket pricing and onboard
revenue. The increase in onboard revenue was primarily due to an increase in net revenue from our gaming operations, beverage sales and specialty dining. The increase in Capacity Days was due to the addition of Norwegian Epic to the fleet in late
June 2010, partially offset by the departure of Norwegian Majesty from our fleet in October 2009.

Expense

Total cruise operating expense increased 4.5% in 2010 compared to 2009 primarily related to an increase in Capacity Days as described above and higher
ship operating expenses. The increase in ship operating expenses is primarily due to an increase in fuel expense resulting from a 28.3% increase in the average cost of $490 per metric ton in 2010 from $382 per metric ton in 2009 as well as an
increase in payroll and related expenses, partially offset by a savings in port charge expenses. Total other operating expense increased 10.2% compared to 2009 with an increase in marketing expenses, including inaugural expenses for Norwegian Epic,
partially offset by lower expenses associated with cost control initiatives. Net Cruise Cost increased 8.3% in 2010 compared to 2009. Net Cruise Cost per Capacity Day increased 4.2% primarily due to higher fuel expense per Capacity Day. Depreciation
and amortization expense increased 11.5% in 2010 compared to 2009 due to depreciation expense related to Norwegian Epic which entered service in late June 2010.

Interest expense, net of capitalized interest, increased to $173.8 million in 2010 from $115.4 million in 2009 primarily due to higher average interest rates and an increase in average outstanding
borrowings related to the financing of Norwegian Epic. Other income (expense) was an expense of $(34.0) million in 2010 compared to income of $10.4 million in 2009. The expense in 2010 was primarily due to losses on foreign exchange contracts
associated with the financing of Norwegian Epic. The income in 2009 was primarily due to fuel derivative gains of $20.4 million, partially offset by interest rate swap losses of $5.5 million and foreign currency losses of $4.0 million, primarily due
to changes in the exchange rate regarding the revaluation of our euro-denominated debt to U.S. dollars.

Year Ended December 31, 2009
Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2008

Revenue

Total revenue decreased 11.9% in 2009 compared to 2008. Net Revenue decreased 12.8% in 2009 compared to 2008 due to a decrease in Net Yield of 8.2% and a decrease in Capacity Days of 5.1%. The decrease in
Net Yield was the result of a decrease in passenger ticket pricing due to adverse global economic conditions. This decrease was partially offset by a slight increase in Net Yield pertaining to onboard and other revenue primarily due to increased Net
Revenue from our shore excursions and gaming operations and an increase in Occupancy Percentage. The decrease in Capacity Days was the result of the departure of Marco Polo, Norwegian Dream and Norwegian Majesty from our fleet upon expiration of the
relevant Charter agreements in March 2008, November 2008, and October 2009 respectively, partially offset with the re-flagging of Pride of Aloha which was withdrawn from the fleet in May 2008 and launched as Norwegian Sky in July 2008.

Expense

Total cruise
operating expense decreased 18.3% in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily related to a decrease in fuel price as a result of a 30.3% decrease in the average cost of $382 per metric ton in 2009 from $548 per metric ton in 2008 and implementation of cost
control initiatives which included savings in marketing, general and administrative expense. Total other operating expense decreased 33.3% in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily due to an impairment loss in 2008 of $128.8 million as a result of the
cancellation of a contract to build a ship. Net Cruise Cost decreased 22.5% in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily due to a 18.4% decrease in Net Cruise Cost per Capacity Day. The decrease in Net Cruise Cost per Capacity Day was primarily due to lower
fuel expense per Capacity Day; lower marketing, general and administrative expense and other cruise operating expense per Capacity Day; and lower payroll and related expense per Capacity Day from the impact of the re-flagging and redeployment of
Pride of Hawaii and Pride of Aloha from the Hawaii market to our international fleet in 2008. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 6.1% in 2009 compared to 2008 primarily due to the transfer of Norwegian Sky to Genting HK in January
2009.

Interest expense, net of capitalized interest, decreased to $115.4 million in 2009 from $152.4 million in 2008, primarily due to lower
average interest rates. Other income (expense) improved to income of $10.4 million in 2009 compared to $1.0 million in 2008. The income in 2009 was primarily due to fuel derivative gains of $20.4 million partially offset by interest rate swap losses
of $5.5 million and foreign currency losses of $4.0 million, primarily due to changes in the exchange rate regarding the revaluation of our euro-denominated debt to U.S. dollars. The income in 2008 was primarily due to foreign currency gains of
$101.8 million partially offset by fuel derivative losses of $99.9 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

As of December 31, 2010, our liquidity was $451.1 million consisting of $55.0
million in cash and cash equivalents and $396.1 million available under our $750.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility. Our main ongoing liquidity requirements are to finance working capital, capital expenditures, and debt service.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Net cash provided by operating activities was $418.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in cash provided by operating
activities was primarily due to timing differences in cash payments relating to operating assets and liabilities, the release of cash collateral from our service providers and an increase in advance ticket sales. These increases were partially
offset by transaction losses related to foreign exchange contracts associated with the financing of Norwegian Epic. Net cash provided by operating activities was $50.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 primarily due to net income of
$67.2 million partially offset by changes primarily due to timing differences in cash payments relating to operating assets and liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities was $23.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The cash
used in operating activities in 2008 was primarily due to a decrease in advance ticket sales.

Net cash used in investing activities,
primarily consisting of additions to property and equipment related to payments for construction of Norwegian Epic, was $968.9 million, $166.6 million and $166.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $554.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Cash provided by
financing activities in 2010 was primarily due to borrowings related to the delivery of Norwegian Epic and the issuance of $250.0 million of 9.5% Senior Notes partially offset by repayments on our senior secured revolving credit facility and
payments on other outstanding loans and loan arrangement fees. Net cash used in financing activities of $19.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 was primarily due to payments on outstanding loans and repayments of senior secured
revolving credit facilities and loan arrangement fees, primarily offset by the issuance of $450.0 million of 11.75% Senior Secured Notes and draw downs on our $750.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and a contribution from, and other
transactions with, Affiliates. Net cash provided by financing activities of $335.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 was primarily due to contributions from an Affiliate and draw downs on our then senior secured revolving credit
facilities and other outstanding loans substantially offset by repayments on those facilities. In 2008, $240.2 million of our then outstanding $250.0 million
105/8% Senior Secured Notes were tendered to us and
we expensed unamortized deferred financing fees in connection with these notes which was included in interest expense, net of capitalized interest, in our consolidated statement of operations. Also in 2008, we had transactions with an Affiliate
primarily due to the RDA.

Capitalized interest primarily associated with the construction of Norwegian Epic was $8.6 million in 2010,
$12.1 million in 2009 and $4.6 million in 2008. Also, in 2008, we expensed $9.9 million of capitalized interest due to an impairment charge in connection with the cancellation of a contract to build a ship.

Future Capital Commitments

Future
capital commitments consist of contracted commitments, including ship purchase commitments, and future expected capital expenditures necessary for operations. As of December 31, 2010, anticipated capital expenditures are $168.7 million, $230.6
million

and $829.6 million for each of the years ending December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively, of which we have export credit
financing in place for the expenditures related to ship purchase commitments in the amounts of $82.3 million, $123.5 million and $626.5 million, respectively, based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010.

In September 2010, we reached an agreement with a shipyard to build two new next generation Freestyle Cruising ships with financing commitments in place
from a syndicate of banks for export credit financing. As a result of this agreement, we prepaid $100.0 million of our long-term debt. These ships, each at 143,500 Gross Tons and capacity of approximately 4,000 Berths, are scheduled for delivery in
the second quarter of 2013 and 2014, respectively. The aggregate contract price of the two ships is approximately 1.2 billion, or $1.6 billion based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010. In connection with the
contracts to build the two ships, we do not anticipate any contractual breaches or cancellation to occur. However, if any would occur, it could result in, among other things, the forfeiture of prior deposits or payments made by us and potential
claims and impairment losses which may materially impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Other

Certain of our service providers
have required collateral in the normal course of our business including liens on certain of our ships. The amount of collateral may change based on certain terms and conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2010, our service providers
released in aggregate $89.3 million of collateral which was included in other long-term assets in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009.

As a routine part of our business, depending on market conditions, exchange rates, pricing and our strategy for growth, we regularly consider opportunities to enter into contracts for the building of
additional ships. We may also consider the sale of ships, potential acquisitions and strategic alliances. If any of these were to occur, they may be financed through the incurrence of additional permitted indebtedness, through cash flows from
operations, or through the issuance of debt, equity or equity-related securities.

Funding Sources

Our debt agreements contain covenants that, among other things, require us to maintain a minimum level of liquidity, as well as limit our net funded
debt-to-capital ratio, maintain certain other ratios and restrict our ability to pay dividends. Our ships and substantially all other property and equipment are pledged as collateral for our debt. We were in compliance with these covenants as of
December 31, 2010.

The impact of changes in world economies and especially the global credit markets has created a challenging
environment and may reduce future consumer demand for cruises and adversely affect our counterparty credit risks. In the event this environment deteriorates, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely impacted.

We believe our cash on hand, expected future operating cash inflows, additional available borrowings under our existing credit facilities and
our ability to issue debt securities or raise additional equity, including capital contributions, will be sufficient to fund operations, debt payment requirements, capital expenditures and maintain compliance with covenants under our debt agreements
over the next twelve-month period. There is no assurance that cash flows from operations and additional financings will be available in the future to fund our future obligations.

Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

General

We are exposed to market risk
attributable to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and fuel prices. We attempt to minimize these risks through a combination of our normal operating and financing activities and through the use of derivative financial
instruments. The financial impacts of these hedging instruments are primarily offset by corresponding changes in the underlying exposures being hedged. We achieve this by closely matching the amount, term and conditions of the derivative instrument
with the underlying risk being hedged. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. Derivative positions are monitored using techniques including market valuations and sensitivity analyses. We
refer you to our audited consolidated financial statements, Note 6 Financial Instruments, for further detail.

Interest Rate
Risk

From time to time, we consider entering into interest rate swap agreements to modify our exposure to interest rate movements and to
manage our interest expense. As of December 31, 2010, 33% of our debt was fixed and 67% was variable. We had one interest rate swap agreement which was in place through October 2010. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap were
recorded in other income (expense) in our consolidated statement of operations. Based on our December 31, 2010 outstanding variable rate debt balance, a one percentage point increase in annual LIBOR interest rates would increase our annual
interest expense by approximately $21 million.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the U.S. dollar value of our foreign currency denominated forecasted transactions. Our
primary exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk relates to our ship construction firm commitments denominated in euros. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts and/or option contracts to manage the risk related to our ship
construction firm commitments.

As of December 31, 2010, we had call options with deferred premiums which resulted in a net liability of
$1.1 million. These options hedge the foreign currency exchange rate risk on a portion of the final payments on our ship construction firm commitments. If the spot rate at the date the ships are delivered is less than the strike price under these
option contracts we would pay the deferred premium and not exercise the options. As of December 31, 2010, the remaining payments aggregating 1,020 million, or $1,365 million based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of
December 31, 2010, are not hedged. We estimate that a 10% change in the euro as of December 31, 2010, would result in a $137 million change in the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency denominated remaining payments.

Fuel Price Risk

Our exposure to market
risk for changes in fuel prices relates to the forecasted consumption of fuel on our ships. Fuel expense, as a percentage of our total cruise operating expense, was 15.4%, 12.6% and 16.4% for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. From time to time, we use fuel hedging agreements to mitigate the financial impact of fluctuations in fuel prices. As of December 31, 2010, we had fuel swap agreements to pay fixed prices for fuel with an aggregate notional amount
of $112.5 million maturing through June 30, 2012. As of December 31, 2010, we had hedged 57.0% of our expected fuel consumption over the next year. We estimate that a 10% increase in our weighted-average fuel price would increase our
anticipated 2011 fuel expense by $23.2 million. This increase would be partially offset by an increase in the fair value of our fuel swap agreements of $11.2 million.

Fair value for our derivative contracts is derived using valuation models that utilize the income valuation approach. These valuation models take into account the contract terms such as maturity, as well
as other inputs such as fuel types, fuel curves, exchange rates, creditworthiness of the counterparty and the Company, as well as other data points (we refer you to our audited consolidated financial statements, Note 6 Financial
Instruments for more regarding fair value).

Off-balance Sheet Transactions

None.

Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers

The aggregate cash compensation paid to our directors and executive officers for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $10.1 million.

Share Option Scheme for Shares of Genting HK

Certain directors and employees of Genting HK and NCL were granted options to purchase shares of Genting HK under the legacy Star Cruises Employees Share Option Scheme for Executives. No grants were made
in 2008, 2009 and 2010 and it is not anticipated that any further options will be granted. All options outstanding under this plan are vested and exercisable.

Profits Sharing Agreement

In April, 2009, we adopted a profits sharing agreement which
authorizes us to grant profits interests in the Company to certain key employees of the Company. These interests generally vest with the holders based on a combination of performance-based vesting metrics and time-based vesting metrics, each as
specified in the profits sharing agreement and each holders award agreement. The Apollo Funds, Genting HK and the TPG Viking Funds are entitled to initially receive any distributions made by the Company, pro rata based on their shareholdings
in the Company. Once the Apollo Funds, Genting HK and the TPG Viking Funds receive distributions in excess of certain hurdle amounts specified in the profits sharing agreement and each holders award agreement, each vested profits interest
award generally entitles the holder of such award to a portion of such excess distribution amount.

Severance Arrangements

Certain of our officers are employed pursuant to employment agreements that provide for severance payments. Severance is generally only payable upon an
involuntary termination of the executives employment by us without cause or a termination by the executive for good reason. Severance generally includes a cash payment based on the executives base salary (and in some cases, bonus), and
our payment of the executives continued medical benefits for the applicable severance period.

Incentive Bonus Plans, Qualified and
Non-Qualified Benefit Plans

Incentive Bonus Plans. We maintain annual incentive bonus plans for our executive officers and
other key employees. Bonuses under these plans become earned and payable based on both the Companys and each individuals performance during the applicable performance period, and the individuals continued employment. Company
performance criteria include the attainment of certain financial targets and other strategic objectives.

401(k) Plan. We maintain
a 401(k) Plan for our shoreside employees, including our executive officers. Participants may contribute up to 100% of eligible compensation each pay period, subject to certain limitations. We make matching contributions equal to 100% of the first
3% and 50% of the next 4% - 10% of each participants contributions, and our matching contributions may not exceed 6% of each participants compensation. Our matching contributions become vested according to a five-year schedule. The
401(k) Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), and is intended to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Code.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. We maintain a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP), which is a legacy unfunded
defined contribution plan for certain of our executives who were employed by the Company in an executive capacity prior to 2008. The SERP was frozen to future participation following that date. The SERP provides for Company contributions on behalf
of the participants to compensate them for the benefits that are limited under the 401(k) Plan. We credit participants under the SERP for amounts that would have been contributed by us to the Companys previous Defined Contribution Retirement
Plan and the former 401(k) Plan without regard to any limitations imposed by the Code. Participants do not make any elective contributions under this plan. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the aggregate balance of participants deferred
compensation accounts under the SERP Plan was $0.9 million. The SERP Plan is an unfunded plan.

We recorded expenses related to the above
401(k) Plan and the SERP of $2.7 million, $3.1million and $3.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Board Practices

None of our executive
officers serves as a member of the Board of Directors or compensation committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions) of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on the Board of Directors or compensation committee.
No interlocking relationship exists between any member of the Board of Directors or any member of the compensation committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions) of any other company.

certain consent rights, has granted to the Apollo Funds the right to vote its ordinary shares. The Shareholders Agreement became effective on January 7, 2008. Both NCL Investment II Ltd. and Star NCLC Holdings Ltd. (on January 7,

##### Table of Contents

The Apollo Funds and Genting HK were, up until July 2008, entitled to appoint three and two members to the
Board of Directors, respectively. Pursuant to a separate agreement between the Apollo Funds and the TPG Viking Funds, the TPG Viking Funds are entitled to designate a non-voting observer who is permitted to attend meetings of the Board of Directors.
In July 2008, an amendment to the Shareholders Agreement increased the number of members serving on the Board of Directors by two additional members. As a result, the Apollo Funds and Genting HK have increased their representation to appoint
four and three members, respectively.

Subject to Genting HK consent rights as described below, the Apollo Funds has the right to vote the
shares held by Genting HK. In the event that the ratio of the aggregate holding of equity securities of the Apollo Funds (and certain of their permitted transferees) to the holding of equity securities of Genting HK (and certain of their permitted
transferees, including the TPG Viking Funds) falls below 0.6, these rights will cease.

Provided the shareholding ratios (as described above)
remain, certain reserved matters may not be carried out without the prior consent of Genting HK, which include, among others, the following:



| |  |  | any acquisitions or divestitures with the aggregate consideration paid or received exceeding $200.0 million;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the primary issuance by us of equity securities in a public offering (other than in the case of the initial public offering of primary ordinary shares,
if the number of ordinary shares proposed to be issued in the initial public offering does not exceed 20% of the ordinary shares that would be outstanding after giving effect to the initial public offering);
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the issuance by us of equity securities in a private offering to third parties, subject to limited exceptions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any capital expenditures with the aggregate amount exceeding $20.0 million;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | declaring or paying any non-pro rata dividends or distributions;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any changes to our memorandum of association or bye-laws; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | hiring a new chief executive officer of the Company, provided, however, such consent should not be unreasonably withheld.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subject to limited exceptions, each shareholder shall have the right to participate on a pro rata basis in any issue of new shares. In addition, the
Apollo Funds and Genting HK have the right to make written requests to us to register and thereby transfer all or a portion of its equity securities in us through share offerings, provided that the initial registration may only be made in connection
with an underwritten public offering of ordinary shares in which the managing underwriter is a nationally recognized bulge bracket investment bank and following which (i) we reasonably expect to qualify for the exemption from U.S.
Federal income tax set forth in Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor provision and (ii) such ordinary shares are listed on a national securities exchange (a Qualified Public Offering).
Following an initial public offering, the TPG Viking Funds will also have certain registration rights.

Unless a Qualified Public Offering has
occurred whereby the Apollo Funds sells any of their shares or any initial public offering of our primary ordinary shares has occurred to which Genting HK has not given its prior written consent, at any time after 54 months from January 7,
2008, the Apollo Funds shall be entitled to sell all, but not less than all, of its equity securities to a third party in cash, provided that the Apollo Funds shall first offer Genting HK the right to acquire (or cause one or more of its designees
to acquire) such equity securities on such terms and conditions as may be specified by the Apollo Funds. Additionally, the Shareholders Agreement contains certain drag along and tag along rights.

In April 2009, we increased our authorized share capital from $30,000 to $48,000 by authorizing 15,000,000 additional ordinary shares of $.0012 par value
per share, resulting in an aggregate authorized share capital of 40,000,000 ordinary shares of $.0012 par value per share. Following this increase, our shareholders made an additional pro rata equity investment, in connection with which we issued an
additional 1,000,000 ordinary shares. Following this equity investment, and as of December 31, 2010, there are 21,000,000 ordinary shares of $.0012 par value per share.

The amounts and percentages of ordinary shares beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities (including as
further described in the footnotes to the following table). Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or
to direct the voting of such security, or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has
a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed a beneficial owner of securities as to which he has no economic
interest. Except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes below and except as provided in the Shareholders Agreement, each of the beneficial owners has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the indicated ordinary
shares. Unless indicated otherwise, the address of each individual listed in the table is c/o NCL Corporation Ltd., 7665 Corporate Center Drive, Miami, Florida 33126.

Legal proceedings

Material litigation

In May 2008, we were
served with a complaint in the Circuit Court of Miami-Dade County, Florida, by a former shipboard concessionaire for fraudulent inducement, equitable or promissory estoppel and breach of contract in connection with the termination of a shipboard
concessionaire agreement. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to these claims and, accordingly, are vigorously defending this action and are not able at this time to estimate the impact of these proceedings.

In July 2009, a class action complaint was filed against NCL (Bahamas) Ltd. in the United States District Court, Southern District of Florida on behalf
of a purported class of crew members alleging inappropriate deductions of their wages pursuant to the Seamans Wage Act and wrongful termination resulting in a loss of retirement benefits. On December 30, 2010, the Court denied the
plaintiffs Motion for Class Certification. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to these claims and, accordingly, are vigorously defending this action and are not able at this time to estimate the impact of these proceedings.

In the normal course of our business, various other claims and lawsuits have been filed or are pending against us. Most of these claims and
lawsuits are covered by insurance and, accordingly, the maximum amount of our liability is typically limited to our deductible amount. Nonetheless, the ultimate outcome of these claims and lawsuits that are not covered by insurance cannot be
determined at this time. We have evaluated our overall exposure with respect to all of our threatened and pending litigation and, to the extent required, we have accrued amounts for all estimable probable losses associated with our deemed exposure.
We are currently unable to estimate any other potential contingent losses beyond those accrued, as discovery is not complete nor is adequate information available to estimate such range of loss or potential recovery. We intend to vigorously defend
our legal position on all claims and, to the extent necessary, seek recovery.

Dividends

We intend to retain all currently available funds and as much as necessary of future earnings in order to fund the continued development and growth of our
business. Our debt agreements also impose restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial
condition, restrictions imposed by applicable law and our financing agreements and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

annual report.



|Item 9. | The Offer and Listing
|------- | ---------------------

Our ordinary
shares are not traded on any securities exchange or other regulated market and therefore we are unable to provide historical high and low market price information for our ordinary shares. The remaining items of Item 9 are not applicable.



|Item 10. | Additional Information
|-------- | ----------------------

General

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda. We are registered with the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda under
registration number 34678. We were incorporated on December 15, 2003 under the name NCL Holdings, Ltd. which was changed to NCL Corporation Ltd. on March 26, 2004. We have a general corporate purpose which can be found in paragraph 6 of
our memorandum of association. We are owned by Genting HK, the Apollo Funds and the TPG Viking Funds, holding 50.0%, 37.5% and 12.5% of our issued ordinary shares, respectively.

Share capital

All of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares are fully paid. Subject to
our bye-laws and to any resolution of our shareholders to the contrary, and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any existing shares or class of shares, the Board of Directors is authorized to issue any of
our authorized but unissued shares. There are no limitations on the right of non-Bermudians or non-residents of Bermuda to hold or vote our shares.

Holders of ordinary shares have no pre-emptive, redemption, conversion or sinking fund rights. Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of holders
of ordinary shares. Unless a different majority is required by law or by our bye-laws, resolutions to be approved by holders of ordinary shares require approval by a simple majority of votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present and in the
case of an equality of votes, the resolution will fail.

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of ordinary
shares are entitled to share equally and ratably in our surplus assets, if any, remaining after the payment of all of our debts and liabilities. If we are wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a resolution of our shareholders, divide
amongst our shareholders all or any part of our assets and determine how such division shall be carried out as between our shareholders or different classes of shareholders.

Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws/Shareholder Rights

Dividend rights

Under Bermuda law, a companys board of directors may declare and pay dividends from time to time unless there are reasonable
grounds for believing either that the company is, or after the payment would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due or that the realizable value of its assets would thereby be less than the sum of its liabilities and issued share
capital (par value) and share premium accounts (share premium being the amount of consideration paid for the subscription of shares in excess of the par value of those shares). Under our bye-laws, each ordinary share is entitled to dividends if and
when dividends are declared by the Board of Directors, subject to any preferred dividend right of the holders of any preference shares. There are no restrictions on our ability to transfer funds (other than funds denominated in Bermuda dollars) in
and out of Bermuda or to pay dividends to non-Bermuda residents.

Variation of shareholder rights

If at any time we have more than one class of shares, the rights attaching to any class, unless otherwise provided for by the terms of issue of the
relevant class, may be varied either: (i) with the consent in writing of the holders of 75% of the issued shares of that class; or (ii) with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast at a general meeting of the
relevant class of shareholders at which a quorum consisting of at least two persons holding or representing the issued shares of the relevant class is present. Our bye-laws specify that the creation or issue of shares ranking equally with existing
shares will not, unless expressly provided by the terms of issue of those shares, vary the rights attached to existing shares. In addition, the creation or issue of preferred shares ranking prior to ordinary shares will not be deemed to vary the
rights attached to ordinary shares.

Transfer of shares

The Board of Directors may in its absolute discretion and without assigning any reason refuse to register the transfer of a share that is not fully paid. The Board of Directors may also refuse to
recognize an instrument of transfer of a share unless it is accompanied by the relevant share certificate and such other evidence of the transferors right to make the transfer as the Board of Directors shall reasonably require.



46



---

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the Board of Directors are required to refuse to register a transfer unless all applicable
consents have been obtained. As a matter of Bermuda law, a transfer of shares will require prior approval from the Bermuda Monetary Authority. Subject to these restrictions, a holder of ordinary shares may transfer the title to all or any of his or
her or its ordinary shares by completing a form of transfer in the form set out in our bye-laws (or as near thereto as circumstances permit) or in such other form as the Board of Directors may accept. The instrument of transfer must be signed by
both the transferor and transferee, although in the case of a fully paid share the Board of Directors may accept the instrument signed only by the transferor.

Meetings of shareholders

Our bye-laws provide that any resolution required or
permitted to be passed by our shareholders must be passed at an annual or special general meeting of our shareholders or by the written resolution of our shareholders, except that the removal of directors and auditors cannot be done by written
resolution. Under Bermuda law, a company is required to convene at least one general meeting of shareholders each calendar year. Bermuda law provides that a special general meeting of shareholders may be called by the board of directors of a company
and must be called upon the request of shareholders holding not less than 10% of the paid-up capital of the company carrying the right to vote at general meetings. Bermuda law also requires that shareholders be given at least five days advance
notice of a general meeting, but the accidental omission to give notice to any person does not invalidate the proceedings at a meeting. Our bye-laws provide that the Board of Directors may convene an annual general meeting or a special general
meeting. The notice requirement for general meetings is subject to the ability to hold such meetings on shorter notice if such notice is agreed: (i) in the case of an annual general meeting by all of the shareholders entitled to attend and vote
at such meeting; or (ii) in the case of a special general meeting by a majority in number of the shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the meeting holding not less than 95% in nominal value of the shares entitled to vote at such meeting.
The quorum required for a general meeting of shareholders is two or more shareholders present, in person or by proxy, and representing in excess of 50% of the total issued voting shares.

Access to books and records and public dissemination of information

Members of the
general public have the right to inspect the public documents of a company available at the office of the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. These documents include the Companys memorandum of association (which includes its objects and powers)
and any alterations to its memorandum of association, including changes to the Companys authorized share capital. The shareholders have the additional right to inspect the bye-laws of the Company, minutes of general meetings of shareholders
and the Companys audited financial statements, which must be presented at the annual general meeting. The register of members of a company is also open to inspection by shareholders without charge and by members of the general public on the
payment of a fee. The register of members is required to be open for inspection for not less than two hours in any business day (subject to the ability of a company to close the register of shareholders for not more than thirty days in a year). A
company is required to maintain its share register in Bermuda but may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act 1981 (the Companies Act), establish a branch register outside Bermuda. A company is required to keep at its registered
office a register of directors and officers that is open for inspection for not less than two hours in any business day by members of the public without charge. Bermuda law does not, however, provide a general right for shareholders to inspect or
obtain copies of any other corporate records.

Election and removal of directors

Our bye-laws provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than five directors. Our bye-laws do not provide for cumulative voting in the
election of directors. Subject to the provisions of our bye-laws, the shareholders by resolution may determine such other minimum or maximum numbers of directors. Currently, the Board of Directors consists of seven members.

Our bye-laws provide that the shareholders entitled to vote for the election of directors may, at any special general meeting called for that purpose,
remove a director for any reason, provided that the notice of any such meeting convened for the purpose of removing a director contains a statement of the intention to remove the director and is served on that director at least 14 days before the
meeting. The director is entitled to be heard at the meeting on the motion for his or her removal. Any vacancy created by the removal of a director at a special general meeting may be filled at the meeting by a resolution of the shareholders, or, in
the absence of such election, by the Board of Directors.

Proceedings of the Board of Directors

Our bye-laws provide that our business is to be managed and conducted by the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors may exercise all powers of the
Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge any of our undertaking, property and uncalled capital (or any part thereof) and may issue debentures, debenture stock and other securities, whether outright or as security for any debt, liability or
obligation of the Company or any third party. Bermuda law requires that our directors be individuals, but there is no requirement in our bye-laws or Bermuda law that directors hold any of our shares. There is also no requirement in our bye-laws or
Bermuda law that our directors must retire at a certain age.



47

##### Table of Contents

Our directors may be paid all reasonable travel, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in
attending and returning from meetings of the Board of Directors or general meetings of the Company, acting as committee members appointed by the Board of Directors or otherwise in connection with our business or their duties as directors. Under
Bermuda law, a director shall be deemed not to be acting honestly and in good faith if he fails to disclose at the first opportunity at a meeting of directors or by writing to the directors: (i) his or her interest in any material contract or
proposed material contract with the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or (ii) his or her material interest in any person that is a party to a material contract or proposed material contract with the Company.

Our bye-laws provide that a director who is directly or indirectly interested in a contract or proposed contract or arrangement with the Company must
declare the nature of such interest as required by the Companies Act. Following such declaration, the director may vote in respect of any contract or proposed contract or arrangement in which such director is interested and may be counted in the
quorum for such meeting.

Indemnification of directors and officers

Our bye-laws indemnify our directors and officers in respect of their actions and omissions, except in respect of their fraud or dishonesty. The indemnification provided in our bye-laws is not exclusive
of other indemnification rights to which a director or officer may be entitled, provided these rights do not extend to his or her fraud or dishonesty.

Amendment of memorandum of association and bye-laws

Bermuda law provides that the
memorandum of association of a company may be amended by a resolution passed at a general meeting of shareholders of which due notice has been given.

Under Bermuda law, the holders of an aggregate of not less than 20% in par value of a companys issued share capital have the right to apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda for an annulment of any
amendment of the memorandum of association adopted by shareholders at any general meeting, other than an amendment which alters or reduces a companys share capital as provided in the Companies Act. Where such an application is made, the
amendment becomes effective only to the extent that it is confirmed by the Bermuda court. An application for an annulment of an amendment of the memorandum of association must be made within twenty-one days after the date on which the resolution
altering the companys memorandum of association is passed and may be made on behalf of persons entitled to make the application by one or more of their number as they may appoint in writing for the purpose. No application may be made by
shareholders voting in favor of the amendment.

Our bye-laws provide that the bye-laws may only be amended in the manner provided for in the
Companies Act and with the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors and the approval of a majority of the shareholders of the Company.

Appraisal rights and shareholder suits

Under Bermuda law, in the event of an amalgamation of a Bermuda company with another company or corporation, a shareholder of the Bermuda company who is not satisfied that fair value has been offered for
such shareholders shares may apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda within one month of notice of the shareholders meeting to appraise the fair value of those shares.

Class actions and derivative actions are generally not available to shareholders under Bermuda law. The Bermuda courts, however, would ordinarily be expected to permit a shareholder to commence an action
in the name of a company to remedy a wrong to the company where the act complained of is alleged to be beyond the corporate power of the company or is illegal or would result in the violation of the companys memorandum of association or
bye-laws. Furthermore, consideration would be given by a Bermuda court to acts that are alleged to constitute a fraud against the minority shareholders or, for instance, where an act requires the approval of a greater percentage of the
companys shareholders than that which actually approved it.

Capitalization of profits and reserves

Pursuant to our bye-laws, our shareholders may, upon the recommendation of the Board of Directors, (i) capitalize any part of the amount of our share
premium or other reserve accounts or otherwise available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be allotted as fully paid bonus shares pro rata (except in connection with the conversion of shares) to the shareholders;
or (ii) capitalize any sum standing to the credit of a reserve account or sums otherwise available for dividend or distribution by paying up in full, partly paid or nil paid shares of those shareholders who would have been entitled to such sums
if they were distributed by way of dividend or distribution.

These supplemental deeds are referred to collectively as the April 2009 Amendments and the Pride of Hawaii Loan, the Norwegian Epic Loan, the Norwegian Pearl/Norwegian Gem Revolving
Credit Facility, the Norwegian Jewel Loan, the Pride of America Loan, and the Pride of America Commercial Loan are referred to collectively as the Existing ECF Facilities.

Among other things, the April 2009 Amendments (i) revised the schedules pertaining to the repayment or reduction, as applicable, of each of the Existing ECF Facilities, including the dates and
amounts of such repayments and reductions and, (ii) introduced new prepayment requirements in respect of year-end liquidity and special liquidity events, (iii) introduced new financial covenants for specified periods, (iv) modified
certain negative covenants, (v) modified the interest rate provisions, and (vi) allowed for the granting of (a) second and third priority mortgages over Pride of America, Norwegian Jewel and Norwegian Jade in favor of certain of our
bank syndicates and (b) guarantees and certain other security related to the granting of such mortgages.

On
November 12, 2009, we issued $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 at a price of 98.834% of par in a private offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 12, 2009, among NCL Corporation Ltd., as issuer, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. In addition, we entered into a $750.0 million
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility at LIBOR plus a margin of 4.0% maturing in 2015. The notes and this senior secured revolving credit facility are guaranteed by certain of the Companys subsidiaries which own four of the Companys
ships, namely, Norwegian Star, Norwegian Spirit, Norwegian Sun and Norwegian Dawn. The guarantees of the notes are secured by the same collateral securing our $750.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (other than pledges of ordinary
shares or similar items of the guarantors), including first priority mortgages on the ships, and the liens securing the guarantees of the notes rank pari passu in priority to the liens securing this senior secured revolving credit facility. The net
proceeds and cash on hand were used to repay all of our outstanding debt aggregating $1,003.3 million under our $300.0 million Senior Secured Term Loan, $500.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and our $610.0 million Senior Secured
Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, we discharged the remaining $9.8 million of our $250.0 million
105/8% Senior Secured Notes.

On November 12, 2009, we entered into a registration rights agreement in connection with the offering of 11.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016
discussed above requiring the Company to file with the SEC and cause to become effective a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange the notes for new notes evidencing the same continuing indebtedness and with substantially identical
terms except that the new notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer.

On November 12, 2009, in connection with the note offering discussed above and borrowings under our
$750.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, the trustee under the notes and the collateral agent under our $750.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility entered into a first lien intercreditor agreement, which governs the
relative priorities of their respective security interests in the guarantors assets securing the guarantees of the notes and the borrowing under our $750.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and certain other matters relating to
the administration of the security interests.

On July 22, 2010, we entered into supplemental deeds amending our Existing ECF Facilities
to, among other things, allow (i) the Company to purchase new vessels, (ii) the incurrence of indebtedness in connection with the acquisition of such new vessels, and (iii) the Company to pay a limited amount of dividends after
listing its ordinary stock on an approved stock exchange. These amendments became effective in November 2010 upon our prepayment of $100.0 million under certain of our Existing ECF Facilities.

On September 24, 2010, we reached an agreement with Meyer Werft GmbH of Papenburg, Germany to build two new cruise ships with financing commitments
in place from a syndicate of banks for export credit financing. Each ship will approximate 143,500 Gross Tons and 4,000 Berths with an aggregate contract price of the two ships of approximately 1.2 billion, or $1.6 billion based on the
euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010.

On November 9, 2010, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of
9.50% Senior Notes due 2018 in a private offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 9, 2010, among NCL Corporation Ltd., as issuer, and
U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The net proceeds from this transaction were used to repay portions of our outstanding indebtedness.

On November 9, 2010, we entered into a registration rights agreement in connection with the offering of 9.50% Senior Notes due 2018 discussed above
requiring the Company to file with the SEC and cause to become effective a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange the notes for new notes evidencing the same continuing indebtedness and with substantially identical terms except that
the new notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the exchange offer to be completed no later than the later of 365 calendar days after the original issue date of the notes and 40
calendar days after the registration statement is declared effective.

On November 18, 2010, we entered into agreements with a syndicate
of international banks to provide for financing (the Newbuild Financing Arrangements) for approximately 90% of the contract price of the two new ships. The Newbuild Financing Arrangements are composed of two export credit facilities and
two related term loan facilities.

The export credit facilities represent aggregate commitments of up to approximately
1,060 million, or $1,419 million based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010. Each export credit facility corresponds to one of the new ships, and the subsidiary that will own such new ship is the borrower
under that facility. Each export credit facility is secured by, among other things, pledges of the equity of the subsidiary that is the borrower under such facility, assignments of that borrowers rights in the contracts related to the
construction of such new ship, and a guarantee by NCL Corporation Ltd. Upon delivery, each export credit facility will be secured by a first priority mortgage in the relevant new ship and certain other security related thereto.

The two term loan facilities provide for borrowings by each of Norwegian Jewel Limited and Pride of Hawaii, LLC, respectively, and each term loan
facility contains a separate tranche related to each new ship. The term loan facilities represent aggregate capacity of up to approximately 126 million, or $169 million based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31,
2010. Each term loan facility is secured by, among other things, fourth priority mortgages over Norwegian Jewel and Norwegian Jade, respectively, related subordinated security interests in connection therewith, and a guarantee by NCL Corporation
Ltd.

On November 18, 2010, immediately prior to entry into the Newbuild Financing Arrangements, we obtained required consents under
certain of our Existing ECF Facilities and entered into supplemental deeds amending each of the Pride of Hawaii Loan, the Norwegian Jewel Loan, the Pride of America Loan and the Pride of America Commercial Loan. Among other things, these
consents and amendments allowed for (i) the entry by Norwegian Jewel Limited, Pride of Hawaii, LLC and the Company into the new term loan facilities as part of the Newbuild Financing Arrangements and (ii) the granting of the fourth
priority mortgages and related security over Norwegian Jewel and Norwegian Jade in connection therewith.

Exchange controls

None.

Taxation

At the present time, there is no Bermuda income or profits tax, withholding tax, capital gains tax, capital transfer tax, estate duty or inheritance tax
payable by holders in respect of the notes. Furthermore, NCL Corporation Ltd. has obtained an assurance from the

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and
the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Managements Report on Internal Control
over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our evaluation under the
framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.

The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered certified public
accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included on page F-1.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2010 that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the
Effectiveness of Controls

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent
limitations of control systems, there is only the reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.

Report of Independent Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of NCL Corporation Ltd.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders equity present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of NCL Corporation Ltd. and its subsidiariesat December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
2010,in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for these
financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Managements Report on Internal Control over
Financial Reporting appearing under Item 15. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audits (which were integrated audits in 2010
and 2009). We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control
over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control
based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that
(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors
of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of
any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements



|1. | Description of Business and Organization
|-- | ----------------------------------------

The Norwegian Cruise Line brand commenced operations out of Miami in 1966. On December 15, 2003, the Company was incorporated in Bermuda as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genting Hong Kong Limited and
its affiliates (Genting HK).

In January 2008, the Apollo Funds and the TPG Viking Funds acquired 37.5% and 12.5%,
respectively, of our outstanding ordinary share capital through an equity investment of $1.0 billion and Apollo was afforded majority control of the Board of Directors. Our current shareholders and their relative ownership percentages of our
outstanding ordinary shares are as follows: Genting HK (50.0%), the Apollo Funds (37.5%), and the TPG Viking Funds (12.5%).

We
are a leading global cruise line operator, offering cruise experiences for travelers with a wide variety of itineraries in North America (including Alaska and Hawaii), Central and South America, Bermuda, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and the
Baltic. We strive to offer an innovative and differentiated cruise vacation with the goal of providing our customers the highest levels of overall satisfaction on their cruise experience. In turn, we aim to generate the highest customer loyalty and
greatest numbers of repeat customers. We created a distinctive style of cruising called Freestyle Cruising on all of our ships, which we believe provides our passengers with the freedom and flexibility associated with a resort style
atmosphere and experience as well as more dining options than a traditional cruise. As of December 31, 2010, we operated 11 ships offering cruises in Alaska, the Bahamas, Bermuda, the Caribbean, Europe, Hawaii, Mexico, New England, Central and
South America, North Africa and Scandinavia.



|2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | ------------------------------------------

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Estimates are required for the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
actual results could differ from these estimates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassification

We reclassified $65.7 million and $68.1 million for the
years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, from the line item Payroll and related to Commissions, transportation and other in our consolidated statements of operations to conform to the current period
presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, and include cash and investments with original maturities of three months or less at acquisition.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of cash collateral in respect of certain agreements and is included in prepaid expenses and other assets and other long-term assets in our consolidated balance sheets.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.8 million and $2.2 million as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories mainly consist of provisions, supplies and fuel and are carried at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method of accounting.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs incurred that result in tangible assets, including brochures, are treated as prepaid expenses and charged to expense as consumed. Advertising costs of $1.0 million and $1.3 million as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are included in prepaid expenses and other assets. Advertising costs totaled $87.4 million, $65.6 million and $76.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Major renewals and improvements that we believe add value to our ships are capitalized as a
cost of the ship while costs of repairs and maintenance, including Dry-docking costs, are charged to expense as incurred. During ship construction, interest is capitalized as a cost of the ship. Gains or losses on the sale of property and equipment
are recorded as a component of operating income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations.

Depreciation is
computed on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets and after a 15% reduction for the estimated residual values of ships as follows:



|                             |  |            
|---------------------------- |  | -----------
|                             |  | Useful Life
|Ships                        |  | 30 years   
|Other property and equipment |  | 3-20 years 

Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or related asset life.

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairments, based on estimated future cash flows, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. We consider
historical performance and future estimated results in our evaluation of potential impairment and then compare the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount
of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, we measure the amount of the impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. We estimate fair value based on the best information available making
whatever estimates, judgments and projections are considered necessary. The estimation of fair value is generally measured by discounting expected future cash flows at discount rates commensurate with the risk involved.

Goodwill and Tradenames

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired. We review goodwill and our tradenames for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of goodwill and our tradenames may not be fully recoverable.

We have concluded that our business has
a single reportable segment, with each ship considered to be a component. Each component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and management regularly reviews the operating results and, therefore, each
component is considered a reporting unit. Our reporting units have similar economic characteristics, including similar margins and similar products and services, therefore, we aggregate all of the reporting units in assessing goodwill.

The impairment review of goodwill is based on the expected future cash flows of our ships to determine a fair value of our aggregate
reporting unit. Our discounted cash flow valuation reflects our projection for growth and profitability, taking into account our assessment of future market conditions and demand, as well as a determination of a cost of capital that incorporates
both business and financial risks. We believe that the discounted cash flow approach is the most representative method to assess fair value, as it utilizes expectations of long-term growth whereas a market-based approach is less dynamic, especially
in light of recent negative market conditions, the uncertainty in credit and capital markets and the resulting weakened economic environment.

Revenue and Expense Recognition

Deposits received from customers for
future voyages are recorded as advance ticket sales and are subsequently recognized as passenger ticket revenues along with onboard and other revenues, and all associated direct costs of a voyage are recognized as cruise operating expenses, on a pro
rata basis over the period of the voyage.

Revenue and expenses include taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are
directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer. The amounts included on a gross basis are $110.0 million, $96.2 million and $88.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Foreign Currency

The majority of our transactions are settled in U.S. dollars. We translate assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses
resulting from transactions denominated in other currencies are recognized in our consolidated statements of operations within other income (expense) and such amounts were immaterial as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity

From time to time we enter into derivative instruments, primarily forward, swap, option and three-way collar contracts, to reduce our
exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange, interest rates and fuel rates. The criteria used to determine whether a transaction qualifies for hedge accounting treatment includes the correlation between fluctuations in the fair value of
the hedged item and the fair value of the related derivative instrument and its effectiveness as a hedge.

A derivative
instrument that hedges the variability of cash flows related to a recognized asset or liability may be designated as a cash flow hedge. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying hedged transactions are recognized in earnings. To the extent that an instrument is not effective as a hedge, gains and losses are recognized in other income (expense) in our
consolidated statements of operations.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We monitor concentrations of credit risk associated with financial and other institutions with which we conduct significant business.
Credit risk, including but not limited to counterparty non-performance under derivative instruments, our revolving credit facility and new ship progress payment guarantees, is not considered significant, as we primarily conduct business with large,
well-established financial institutions and insurance companies that we have well-established relationships with and that have credit risks acceptable to us or the credit risk is spread out among a large number of creditors. We do not anticipate
non- performance by any of our significant counterparties.

Insurance

We use a combination of insurance and self-insurance for a number of risks including claims related to crew and passengers, hull and
machinery, war risk, workers compensation, property damage and general liability. Liabilities associated with certain of these risks, including crew and passenger claims, are estimated actuarially based upon known facts, historical trends and
a reasonable estimate of future expenses. While we believe these accruals are adequate, the ultimate losses incurred may differ from those recorded.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated in
accordance with the liability method. Deferred taxes are recorded using the currently enacted tax rates that apply in the periods that the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred taxes are not discounted. In conjunction with business
acquisitions, we record acquired deferred tax assets and liabilities.

We provide a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets
when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. With respect to acquired deferred tax assets, future reversals of the valuation allowance will first be applied against goodwill and other intangible assets before recognition of
a benefit in our consolidated statements of operations.

Share-Based Compensation

We recognize compensation expense for our share-based compensation awards using the fair value method. Share-based compensation expense is
recognized over the expected vesting period for awards that are based on service period and not contingent upon any future performance. We refer you to Note 7 Employee Benefits and Share Option Plans.

Ordinary Shares

In April 2009, we increased our authorized share capital from $30,000 to $48,000 by authorizing 15,000,000 additional ordinary shares of $.0012 par value, resulting in an aggregate authorized share
capital of 40,000,000 ordinary shares of $.0012 par value. Following this increase, we received $100.0 million from our shareholders and issued 1,000,000 additional ordinary shares of $.0012 par value to our shareholders pro rata in accordance with
their percentage ownership resulting in an aggregate 21,000,000 ordinary shares of $.0012 par value issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2010.

Segment Reporting

We have concluded that our business has a single
reportable segment, with each ship considered to be a component. Each component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and management regularly reviews the operating results and, therefore, each component is
considered a reporting unit. Our reporting units have similar economic characteristics, including similar margins and similar products and services, therefore, we aggregate all of the reporting units.

Although we sell cruises on an international basis, our passenger ticket revenue is primarily attributed to passengers who make
reservations in North America. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, revenues attributable to North American passengers were 83%. Substantially all of our longlived assets are located outside of the U.S. and consist
primarily of our ships.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period.
Diluted earnings per share incorporates the incremental shares issuable upon conversion of potentially dilutive time-based profits interests.

A reconciliation between basic and diluted earnings per share was as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

In November 2010, we entered into agreements with a syndicate of banks to provide for financing (the Newbuild Financing
Arrangements) for approximately 90% of the contract price of two new ships. The Newbuild Financing Arrangements are composed of two export credit facilities and two related term loan facilities. The export credit facilities represent aggregate
commitments of up to approximately 1,060 million, or $1,419 million based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010, and each export credit facility is secured by, among other things, a first priority security
interest in the relevant new ship and a guarantee by NCL Corporation Ltd. The export credit facilities will mature 12 years after delivery of the respective ship and the first facility bears interest at Libor plus 1.6% and the second facility is at
a fixed rate of 4.5%. The two term loan facilities provide for borrowings by each of Norwegian Jewel Limited and Pride of Hawaii, LLC, with aggregate capacity of up to approximately 126 million, or $169 million based on the euro/U.S.
dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010. Each term loan facility is secured by, among other things, subordinated security interests in Norwegian Jewel, with a carrying value of $358.8 million, and Norwegian Jade, with a carrying value of
$425.8 million, respectively, and a guarantee by NCL Corporation Ltd. The term loans mature three years after ship delivery and both have a Libor plus 1.6% interest rate. In connection with entering into the agreement for the new ships, we prepaid
$100.0 million on certain of our other existing senior secured credit facilities.

In November 2010, we issued $250.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 9.50% Senior Notes due 2018 in a private offering which has registration rights. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repay $147.0 million of certain of our secured term loans, $94.7 million of our senior
secured revolving credit facility and $0.2 million of our capital lease obligations.

In June 2010, we took delivery of
Norwegian Epic. To finance the purchase, we drew in full $812.9 million of our related term loan. The loan has a 12-year term with semi-annual amortization and bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.175% for the first twelve months and LIBOR plus 1.675%
thereafter.

Costs incurred in connection with the arranging of loan financing have been deferred and are amortized over the
life of the loan agreement. The amortization included in interest expense was $26.8 million (including $6.4 million write-off of deferred financing fees), $23.2 million (including $6.7 million write-off of deferred financing fees) and $13.4 million
for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Our debt agreements contain covenants that, among
other things, require us to maintain a minimum level of liquidity, as well as limit our net funded debt-to-capital ratio, maintain certain other ratios and restrict our ability to pay dividends. Our ships and substantially all other property and
equipment are pledged as collateral for our debt. We were in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2010. There are no restrictions in the agreements that limit intercompany borrowings or dividends between our subsidiaries that
would impact our ability to meet our cash obligations.

In July 2010, we agreed to extend the Charter of Norwegian Sky from Genting HK to December 31, 2012. The agreement includes two
one-year extension options which require the mutual consent of each party. The new agreement also provides us with an option to purchase the ship during the Charter period.

In November 2009, we returned Norwegian Majesty, which had been operated by us pursuant to a Charter arrangement, to Genting HK.

In July 2009, we entered into an agreement with Harrahs Operating Company, Inc. (now known as Caesars Entertainment Operating Corporation) establishing a marketing alliance which incorporates
marketing resources and cross company marketing, purchasing and loyalty programs as well as customer and business intelligence capabilities for a term of three years. Caesars Entertainment Operating Corporation is owned by Affiliates of both Apollo
and TPG Capital.

In April 2009, we received $15.1 million from Genting HK for reimbursements in connection with improvements
to Norwegian Dream which left our fleet upon expiration of the relevant Charter agreement.

In April 2009, we increased our
authorized share capital from $30,000 to $48,000 by authorizing 15,000,000 additional ordinary shares of $.0012 par value, resulting in an aggregate authorized share capital of 40,000,000 ordinary shares of $.0012 par value. Following this increase,
we received $100.0 million from our shareholders and issued an additional 1,000,000 ordinary shares of $.0012 par value to our shareholders pro rata in accordance with their percentage ownership resulting in an aggregate 21,000,000 ordinary shares
of $.0012 par value issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2010.

On January 7, 2008, the Apollo Funds became the owner
of 50% of our outstanding ordinary shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, as defined below, and an assignment agreement dated January 7, 2008 by and among us, NCL Investment Ltd. and NCL Investment II Ltd. (with respect to the
assignment agreement only), each an affiliate of the Apollo Funds, and Genting HK. On January 8, 2008, the TPG Viking Funds acquired, in the aggregate, 12.5% of our outstanding ordinary shares from the Apollo Funds for $250.0 million. Prior to
these transactions, Genting HK owned 100% of our ordinary shares. Pursuant to a shareholders agreement, dated August 17, 2007, among us, Genting HK and NCL Investment Ltd. (the Shareholders Agreement), Genting HK,
subject to certain consent rights, has granted to the Apollo Funds the right to vote its ordinary shares. The Shareholders

Agreement became effective on January 7, 2008. Both NCL Investment II Ltd. and Star NCLC Holdings Ltd. (on January 7, 2008) along with the TPG Viking Funds (on January 8, 2008)
have become parties to the Shareholders Agreement through separate joinder agreements. Each of the TPG Viking Funds which purchased ordinary shares is considered a permitted transferee of the Apollo Funds and all ordinary shares purchased by
the TPG Viking Funds are deemed owned by the Apollo Funds under the Shareholders Agreement.

The Reimbursement and
Distribution Agreement

On August 17, 2007, we entered into a Reimbursement and Distribution Agreement
(RDA) with NCL Investment Ltd. and Genting HK which sets out arrangements in relation to the NCLA Business, including the subsidizing by Genting HK of certain losses and expenses of NCLA. The RDA became effective on January 7, 2008.
Pursuant to the RDA, we withdrew Pride of Aloha from the Hawaii market effective May 11, 2008. Although we were required under the terms of the RDA to transfer Pride of Aloha to Genting HK, the parties subsequently agreed to re-flag Pride of
Aloha into our international fleet and consequently we renamed and launched the ship as Norwegian Sky. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2008, in lieu of returning the ship, we recorded a liability to Genting HK in the amount of $280.7 million
which was the net book value of Pride of Aloha as of December 31, 2008. As a result of the decision to withdraw Pride of Aloha from the Hawaii market, Genting HK was obligated to reimburse us for certain losses and expenses related to NCLA
which totaled $56.0 million through December 31, 2008, which were paid to us in January 2009. Also, in January 2009, we transferred Norwegian Sky to Genting HK per the terms of the RDA, which settled the $280.7 million liability to Genting HK
as of December 31, 2008. We entered into an additional agreement with Genting HK to Charter Norwegian Sky.

Amounts due to
Genting HK as of December 31, 2008 of $210.1 million, which were settled in January 2009, represent amounts primarily in connection with the RDA for $280.7 million. For the year ended December 31, 2007, $3.7 million was reimbursed to us by
Genting HK for ship-related costs.

In addition, in 2008, we paid Genting HK $196.9 million in connection with the terms of the
RDA through a borrowing on a then existing senior secured revolving credit facility.

In June 2009, in connection with the RDA,
we agreed with Genting HK to assume and pay any and all costs and expenses related to the maintenance, lay up or docking of the S.S. United States incurred on or prior to December 31, 2009. As part of this transaction, Genting HK agreed that we
had satisfied in full our obligations under the RDA and they waived their rights, including title and ownership of, and any sale proceeds of, any assets (other than the S.S. United States) of the NCLA Business including all assets related to our
Polynesian Adventure Tours operations. This distribution of the S.S. United States to Genting HK resulted in an equity transaction which reduced property and equipment and additional paid-in capital by $15.0 million.

In December 2009, we reduced additional paid-in capital by $3.5 million pertaining to certain estimated tax positions relating to
transactions amongst entities under common control.

The Shareholders Agreement

On August 17, 2007, NCL Investment Ltd., Genting HK and the Company entered into the Shareholders Agreement to regulate the
affairs relating to our management and the rights and obligations of the Apollo Funds and Genting HK as shareholders. The Shareholders Agreement became effective on January 7, 2008. Both NCL Investment II Ltd. and Star NCLC Holdings Ltd.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genting HK, along with the TPG Viking Funds have become parties to the Shareholders Agreement through separate joinder agreements.

The Apollo Funds and Genting HK were, up until July 2008, entitled to appoint three and two members to the Board of Directors, respectively. Pursuant to a separate agreement between the Apollo Funds and
the TPG Viking Funds, the TPG Viking Funds are entitled to designate a non-voting observer who is permitted to attend meetings of the Board of Directors. In July 2008, an amendment to the Shareholders Agreement increased the number of members
serving on the Board of Directors by two additional members. As a result, the Apollo Funds and Genting HK have increased their representation to appoint four and three members, respectively.

Subject to Genting HK consent rights as described below, the Apollo Funds has the right to vote the shares held by Genting HK. In the
event that the ratio of the aggregate holding of equity securities of the Apollo Funds (and certain of their permitted transferees) to the holding of equity securities of Genting HK (and certain of their permitted transferees, including the TPG
Viking Funds) falls below 0.6, these rights will cease.

Provided the shareholding ratios (as described above) remain, certain
reserved matters may not be carried out without the prior consent of Genting HK, which include, among others, the following:



| |  |  | any acquisitions or divestitures with the aggregate consideration paid or received exceeding $200.0 million;

Subject to limited exceptions, each shareholder shall have the right to participate on a pro rata basis in any issue of new shares. In
addition, the Apollo Funds and Genting HK have the right to make written requests to us to register and thereby transfer all or a portion of its equity securities in us through share offerings, provided that the initial registration may only be made
in connection with an underwritten public offering of ordinary shares in which the managing underwriter is a nationally recognized bulge bracket investment bank and following which (i) we reasonably expect to qualify for the
exemption from U.S. Federal income tax set forth in Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor provision and (ii) such ordinary shares are listed on a national securities exchange (a Qualified
Public Offering). Following an initial public offering, the TPG Viking Funds will also have certain registration rights.

Unless a Qualified Public Offering has occurred whereby the Apollo Funds sells any of their shares or any initial public offering of our
primary ordinary shares has occurred to which Genting HK has not given its prior written consent, at any time after 54 months from January 7, 2008, the Apollo Funds shall be entitled to sell all, but not less than all, of its equity securities
to a third party in cash, provided that the Apollo Funds shall first offer Genting HK the right to acquire (or cause one or more of its designees to acquire) such equity securities on such terms and conditions as may be specified by the Apollo
Funds. Additionally, the Shareholders Agreement contains certain drag along and tag along rights.

The Subscription
Agreement

On August 17, 2007, Genting HK, NCL Investment Ltd. and we entered into a subscription agreement (the
Subscription Agreement) which set out the terms for the $1.0 billion equity investment by, and issuance of shares to, NCL Investment Ltd. NCL Investment Ltd. assigned to NCL Investment II Ltd. a portion of its rights and obligations
under the Subscription Agreement pursuant to an assignment agreement dated January 7, 2008.

Under the Subscription
Agreement, we and Genting HK have agreed to cooperate with each other in developing our respective cruise line businesses, provided that such obligations to cooperate do not extend to any such efforts that could reasonably be expected to have an
adverse effect on the operation or prospects of such partys respective cruise line business.

In addition, subject to
the terms below, NCL Investment Ltd. and Genting HK have indemnified each other for certain losses arising from breaches of representations, warranties and covenants made by us, Genting HK and NCL Investment Ltd. Both NCL Investment Ltd.s and
Genting HKs indemnity obligations relating to breaches of representations and warranties are limited to losses relating to breaches of fundamental representations and warranties to the extent such breaches occurred prior to or on
April 30, 2008, subject to certain exceptions for fraudulent or knowing and intentional misrepresentations and except as set forth herein. In addition, Genting HK is obligated to indemnify NCL Investment Ltd. and its affiliates for losses
relating to certain undisclosed liabilities, provided that such obligations are limited to those undisclosed liabilities that existed as of January 7, 2008 and of which Genting HK had actual knowledge on such date. Genting HKs indemnity
obligations relating to undisclosed liabilities shall not exceed $20.0 million, either individually or in the aggregate, subject to certain exceptions for fraudulent or knowing and intentional misrepresentations.

Genting HK may elect in its sole discretion to satisfy all or a portion of its indemnity obligations in cash or by causing the Company to
issue additional ordinary shares of the Company to NCL Investment Ltd.



|6. | Financial Instruments
|-- | ---------------------

Reported fair values are based on a variety of factors and assumptions; therefore, they may not represent actual values of the financial
instruments that could have been realized as of the balance sheet date or that will be realized in the future and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual sale or settlement. Our financial instruments are not held for trading or
speculative purposes.

##### Table of Contents

Our exposure under interest rate and fuel hedging agreements is limited to the cost of
replacing the contracts in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the contracts. To minimize this risk, we select counterparties with credit risks acceptable to us.

The following are the fair values and methods used to estimate the fair values of our financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Long-Term Debt

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the fair value of our long-term debt, including the current portion, was $3,263.7 million and $2,483.1 million, respectively, which was $59.6 million more and $74.6
million less, respectively, than the carrying values. The difference between the fair value and carrying value of our long-term debt is due to our variable rate debt obligations carrying interest rates that are above or below market rates at the
measurement dates. The fair value of our long-term debt was calculated based on estimated rates for the same or similar instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Market risk associated with our long-term fixed rate debt is the potential increase in fair value resulting from a decrease in interest rates. Market risk associated with our long-term variable rate debt
is the potential increase in interest expense from an increase in interest rates.

Derivatives

As of December 31, 2010 our derivative instruments consisted of fuel swaps which were used to mitigate the financial impact of
increases in fuel prices and were designated as hedging instruments (cash flow hedges) through June 30, 2012. As of December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the fuel swaps pertained to 248.6 thousand metric tons,
302.5 thousand metric tons and 78.2 thousand metric tons, respectively, of our projected fuel purchases. We also had option contracts designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk related to
our ship construction firm commitments denominated in euros. The notional amount of our option contracts was 150.0 million, $200.8 million based on the euro/U.S dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010.

As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, our derivative instruments consisted of an interest rate swap and fuel swaps. We entered into an
interest rate swap agreement to mitigate our exposure to interest rate movements and to manage our interest expense. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the notional amount of outstanding debt related to the interest rate swap was $400.0 million.

Fair value of our derivative contracts is derived using valuation models that utilize the income valuation approach. These
valuation models take into account the contract terms, as well as other inputs such as fuel types, fuel curves, exchange rates, creditworthiness of the counterparty and the Company, as well as other data points.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. The following hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable
inputs be used when available:



|        |  |                                                                                                                                                                   
|------- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|        | 
|Level 1 |  | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.                                                  
|        | 
|Level 2 |  | Significant other observable inputs that are used by market participants in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources.
|        | 
|Level 3 |  | Significant unobservable inputs we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available.

These derivatives were
categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, and we had no derivatives or other financial instruments categorized as Level 1 or Level 3.

We assess whether derivatives used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flow of hedged items. We use regression analysis for this hedge relationship
and high effectiveness is achieved when a statistically valid relationship reflects a high degree of offset and correlation between the fair values of the derivative instrument and the hedged item. Cash flows from the derivative instrument are
classified in the same category as the cash flows from the underlying hedged item. The determination of ineffectiveness is based on the amount of dollar offset between the change in fair value of the derivative instrument and the change in fair
value of the hedged item at the end of the reporting period. If it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge then the change in fair value is recognized in earnings. In addition, the ineffective portion of our highly
effective hedges is recognized in earnings immediately and reported in other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations. There are no amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and there are no credit-risk-related
contingent features in our derivative agreements.

We monitor concentrations of credit risk associated with financial and other
institutions with which we conduct significant business. Credit risk, including but not limited to counterparty non-performance under derivative instruments and our revolving credit facility, is not considered significant, as we primarily conduct
business with large, well-established financial institutions and insurance companies that we have well-established relationships with and that have credit risks acceptable to us or the credit risk is spread out among a large number of creditors. We
do not anticipate non-performance by any of our significant counterparties.

Foreign Currency Contracts

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we did not have any foreign currency forward contracts. As of December 31, 2008, we had foreign currency forward contracts related to euro-denominated
contractual obligations with an aggregate notional amount of $66.4 million maturing through October 2009. Our exposure to market risk for fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates related to our ship construction contract. We use foreign
currency forward contracts and purchase options to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Swap

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to our long-term debt obligations. We enter into interest rate swap agreements to modify our exposure to interest rate movements and to
manage our interest expense. Market risk associated with our long-term fixed rate debt is the potential increase in fair value resulting from a decrease in interest rates. Market risk associated with our long-term variable rate debt is the potential
increase in interest expense from an increase in interest rates. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, our interest rate swap agreement effectively changed $400.0 million of LIBOR-based variable rate debt to 2.98% fixed rate debt through October
2010.

Non-recurring Measurements of Non-financial Assets

Goodwill and other long-lived assets, principally tradenames, are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis or earlier if there is an
event or change in circumstances that would indicate that the carrying value of these assets could not be fully recovered.

If
the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, we measure the amount of the impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. We estimate fair value based on the best
information available making whatever estimates, judgments and projections considered necessary. The estimation of fair value measured by discounting expected future cash flows at discount rates commensurate with the risk involved are considered
Level 3 inputs. We do not believe that we have any impairment to our goodwill or tradenames as of December 31, 2010. We believe our estimates and judgments with respect to our goodwill and tradenames are reasonable. Nonetheless, if there was a
material change in assumptions used in the determination of such fair values or if there is a material change in the conditions or circumstances that influence such assets, we could be required to record an impairment charge.



|7. | Employee Benefits and Share Option Plans
|-- | ----------------------------------------

Profits Sharing Agreement

In 2009, we adopted a profits sharing agreement
which authorizes us to grant profits interests in the Company to certain key employees. These interests generally vest with the holders based on a combination of performance-based and time-based vesting metrics, each as specified in the profits
sharing agreement and each holders award agreement. The Apollo Funds, Genting HK and the TPG Viking Funds are entitled to initially receive any distributions made by the Company, pro rata based on their shareholdings in the Company. Once the
Apollo Funds, Genting HK and the TPG Viking Funds receive distributions in excess of certain hurdle amounts specified in the profits sharing agreement and each holders award agreement, each vested profits interest award generally entitles the
holder of such award to a portion of such excess distribution amount.

In 2009, profits interests, generally consisting of
fifty percent of Time-Based Units (TBUs) and fifty percent of Performance-Based Units (PBUs), were granted to senior management. The TBUs vest over five years commencing on the later of January 7,
2008 or the employees employment start date. Upon a distribution event, the vesting amount of the PBUs is based on the amount of proceeds that are realized above certain hurdles.

The termination of employment results in forfeiture of any non-vested TBUs and all PBUs. TBUs that are vested can be either continued by
the Company or cancelled and paid to the employee. Cancellation can take place anytime after termination but not before two years after the grant date.

The fair value of the profits interests was computed using a binomial (lattice) model using

Expected stock
price volatility was based on annual volatilities of comparable companies in our industry based on three years of historical data. Risk-free interest rates were adjusted to the average risk-free rates applicable at the grant date. The expected unit
life was calculated with the expectation of a distribution event occurring within a three-year period. We estimated forfeitures based on our historical termination rates for the last three years.

The aggregate fair value for the profits interests as of December 31, 2010 was comprised of $9.6 million for PBUs and $7.8 million
for TBUs. Total compensation expense recognized for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $2.5 million and $3.7 million, respectively, and was recorded in marketing, general and administrative expense. As of December 31, 2010,
there was $1.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to TBU non-vested shares. As of December 31, 2010, there was no aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable.

Share option scheme for shares of Genting HK

Share options that are exercisable for shares of Genting HK have been granted to certain directors and employees of Genting HK and NCL
under the Star Cruises Employees Share Option Scheme for Executives which was originally adopted by Genting HK on April 16, 1997 prior to the listing of its ordinary shares on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the Share
Option Scheme adopted by Genting HK on August 23, 2000 (as effected on November 30, 2000 and amended on May 22, 2002, the Post-Listing Employee Share Option Scheme).

As of December 31, 2010, outstanding and exercisable share options granted to NCLs employees under the Post-Listing Employee
Share Option Scheme totaled 39,525,827 with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.34 per share, including 2,595,853 and 542,757 granted to a former executive officer and director, respectively. Total compensation expense for options issued under
the Pre-Listing Employee Share Option Scheme and the Post-Listing Share Option Scheme was $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, all compensation expense had been recognized.

There were no options granted or modified during 2010, 2009 and 2008.

Employee Benefit Plans

Certain of our employees are employed pursuant to agreements that provide for severance payments. Severance is generally
only payable upon an involuntary termination of the employees employment by us without cause or a termination by the employee for good reason. Severance generally includes a cash payment based on the employees base salary, and our
payment of the employees continued medical benefits for the applicable severance period. During 2008, we entered into a severance agreement with our former chief executive officer and recognized costs associated with this of $25.3 million. As
of December 31, 2010, the remaining liability was $13.8 million, which includes a fully vested co-investment profits interest award granted under the profits sharing agreement described above.

We maintain annual incentive bonus plans for our executive officers and other key employees. Bonuses under these plans become earned and
payable based on both the Companys and each individuals performance during the applicable performance period and the individuals continued employment. Company performance criteria include the attainment of certain financial targets
and other strategic objectives.

We maintain a 401(k) Plan for our shoreside employees, including our executive officers.
Participants may contribute up to 100% of eligible compensation each pay period, subject to certain limitations. We make matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 4% - 10% of each participants contributions, and
our matching contributions may not exceed 6% of each participants compensation. Our matching contributions are vested according to a five-year schedule. The 401(k) Plan is subject to the provisions of ERISA and is intended to be qualified
under section 401(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the Code).

Our contributions are reduced by contributions
forfeited by those employees who leave the 401(k) Plan prior to vesting fully in the contributions. Forfeited contributions of $0.2 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million were utilized in each of the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and
2008, respectively.

We maintain a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP), which is a legacy unfunded
defined contribution plan for certain of our executives who were employed by the Company in an executive capacity prior to 2008. The SERP was frozen to future participation following that date. The SERP provides for Company contributions on behalf
of the participants to compensate them for the benefits that are limited under the 401(k) Plan. We credit participants under the SERP for amounts that would have been contributed by us to the Companys previous Defined Contribution Retirement
Plan and the former 401(k) Plan without regard to any limitations imposed by the Code. Participants do not make any elective contributions under this plan. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the aggregate balance of participants deferred
compensation accounts under the SERP Plan was $0.9 million for each year. The SERP Plan is unfunded.

We recorded expenses
related to the above 401(k) Plan and SERP of $2.7 million, $3.1million and $3.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The discount rates used in the net periodic benefit cost calculation for the years ended December 31,
2010 and 2009 are 5.5% and 6.0%, respectively, and the actuarial gain is amortized over 20.63 years. The discount rate is used to measure and recognize obligations, including adjustments to other comprehensive income, and to determine expense during
the periods. It is determined by using bond indices which reflect yields on a broad maturity and industry universe of high-quality corporate bonds.

The pension benefits expected to be paid in each of the next five years and in aggregate for the five years thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

|8. | Income Taxes
|-- | ------------

We are
incorporated in Bermuda, and our subsidiary, Arrasas Limited, is incorporated in the Isle of Man. Generally, we are not subject to income tax in respect of activities undertaken outside these countries.

Under current Bermuda law, we are not subject to tax on income or capital gains. We have received from the Minister of Finance under The
Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966, as amended, an assurance that, in the event that Bermuda enacts legislation imposing tax computed on profits, income, any capital asset, gain or appreciation, or any tax in the nature of estate duty or
inheritance, then the imposition of any such tax shall not be applicable to us or to any of our operations or shares, debentures or other obligations, until March 28, 2016. The Bermuda government announced that it intends to extend the period
of time for which an assurance may be granted to 2035. Further details are expected to be forthcoming in early 2011.

We
previously had operations in Norway through NCL Holdings ASA (NCLH) and its subsidiaries. Deferred tax assets and liabilities that relate to our Norwegian taxes were comprised of the following (in thousands):

Taxable losses can be carried forward indefinitely. Total losses available for carry forward related to NCLH
as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 are $137.4 million and $150.9 million, respectively.

In January 2008, NCL Corporation
Ltd. became a partnership for U.S. Federal income tax purposes and therefore incurs no U.S. Federal or State income tax liability. Each partner is required to take into account its allocable share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the
partnership in computing its U.S. Federal income tax liability, regardless of whether or not cash distributions are made.

In
connection with the RDA (we refer you to Note 5 Related Party Disclosures), in December 2009, NCL America Holdings, Inc. (NCLAH), the tax owner of the assets of our U.S.-flagged operation, was converted to a limited liability
company (LLC) under Delaware law which resulted in a complete liquidation for U.S. income tax purposes. As a result, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we have no deferred tax assets, deferred tax liabilities or related valuation allowance on
our balance sheet related to our U.S. subsidiaries, and our shareholders are subject to U.S. Federal income taxation with respect to income derived in respect of our U.S.-flagged operations.

Operating Leases

We operate principally in leased premises. Total expense
under non-cancelable operating lease commitments, primarily for offices, motor vehicles and office equipment was $12.4 million, $11.0 million and $11.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

As of December 31, 2010, minimum annual rentals for non-cancelable leases with initial or remaining terms in excess of one year were
as follows (in thousands):



|           |  |        |        | 
|---------- |  | ------ | ------ | 
|Year       |  | Amount |

|Total      |  | $      | 50,890 | 
|           |  |        |        | 

Rental payments applicable to such operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of
the lease.

Ship Commitments

In September 2010, we reached an agreement with a shipyard to build two new next generation Freestyle Cruising ships with financing
commitments in place from a syndicate of banks for export credit financing. These ships, each at 143,500 Gross Tons and capacity of approximately 4,000 Berths, are scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2013 and 2014, respectively. The
aggregate contract price of the two ships is approximately 1.2 billion, or $1.6 billion based on the euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate as of December 31, 2010. In connection with the contracts to build the two ships, we do not anticipate any
contractual breaches or cancellation to occur. However, if any would occur, it could result in, among other things, the forfeiture of prior deposits or payments made by us and potential claims and impairment losses which may materially impact our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

Material Litigation

In May 2008, we were served with a complaint in the Circuit Court of Miami-Dade County, Florida, by a former shipboard concessionaire for
fraudulent inducement, equitable or promissory estoppel and breach of contract in connection with the termination of a shipboard concessionaire agreement. Discovery is ongoing. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to these claims and,
accordingly, are vigorously defending this action and are not able at this time to estimate the impact of these proceedings.

In July 2009, a class action complaint was filed against NCL (Bahamas) Ltd. in the United States District Court, Southern District of
Florida on behalf of a purported class of crew members alleging inappropriate deductions of their wages pursuant to the Seamans Wage Act and wrongful termination resulting in a loss of retirement benefits. We believe that we have meritorious
defenses to these claims and, accordingly, are vigorously defending this action and are not able at this time to estimate the impact of these proceedings.

In the normal course of our business, various other claims and lawsuits have been filed or are pending against us. Most of these claims and lawsuits are covered by insurance and, accordingly, the maximum
amount of our liability is typically limited to our deductible amount. Nonetheless, the ultimate outcome of these claims and lawsuits that are not covered by insurance cannot be determined at this time. We have evaluated our overall exposure with
respect to all of our threatened and pending litigation and to the extent required, we have accrued amounts for all estimable probable losses associated with our deemed exposure. We are currently unable to estimate any other potential contingent
losses beyond those accrued, as discovery is not complete nor is adequate information available to estimate such range of loss or potential recovery. We intend to vigorously defend our legal position on all claims and, to the extent necessary, seek
recovery.

Port Facility Commitments

As of December 31, 2010, future commitments to pay for usage of certain port facilities were as follows (in thousands):



|           |  |        |         | 
|---------- |  | ------ | ------- | 
|Year       |  | Amount |        
|2011       |  | $      | 22,330  | 
|2012       |  |        | 19,263  | 
|2013       |  |        | 18,654  | 
|2014       |  |        | 20,183  | 
|2015       |  |        | 21,091  | 
|Thereafter |  |        | 53,237  | 
|           |  |        |         | 
|Total      |  | $      | 154,758 | 
|           |  |        |         | 

The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission requires evidence of financial responsibility for those offering
transportation on passenger ships operating out of U.S. ports to indemnify passengers in the event of non-performance of the transportation. Accordingly, we are required to maintain a $15.0 million third-party performance guarantee on our behalf in
respect of liabilities for non-performance of transportation and other obligations to passengers. Proposed regulations would revise the financial requirements with respect to both death/injury and non-performance coverages. Also we have a legal
requirement for us to maintain a security guarantee based on cruise business originated from the United Kingdom and have a bond with the Association of British Travel Agents currently valued at British Pound Sterling 2.1 million. We also are
required to establish financial responsibility by other jurisdictions to meet liability in the event of non-performance of our obligations to passengers from those jurisdictions.

Other

Certain of our service providers have required collateral in the normal course of our business including liens on certain of our ships.
The amount of collateral may change based on certain terms and conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2010, our service providers released in aggregate $89.3 million of collateral which was included in other long-term assets in our
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009.

|11. | Guarantor Subsidiaries
|--- | ----------------------

Our $450.0 million 11.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries with first-priority mortgage liens
on four of our ships, Norwegian Star, Norwegian Spirit, Norwegian Sun and Norwegian Dawn, and a first-priority security interest in all earnings, proceeds of insurance and certain other interests related to those ships, subject to certain exceptions
and permitted liens. These subsidiary guarantors are 100% owned subsidiaries of NCL Corporation Ltd. and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed our $450.0 million 11.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 on a joint and several basis.

The following condensed consolidating financial information for NCL Corporation Ltd., the non-guarantor subsidiaries and combined
guarantor subsidiaries presents condensed consolidating statements of operations for the three years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and
condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 using the equity method of accounting, as well as elimination entries necessary to consolidate the parent company and all of its subsidiaries.

The outstanding debt resides with the primary obligor. Interest expense was allocated based on the value of the ships, and
marketing, general and administrative expense was allocated based on Capacity Days. Management fee represents the charge for the allocation of interest expense to the subsidiaries.
