of
Third Parties) Act 2001 save that the parties hereto shall be entitled to make any variation or rescission of its terms, in accordance with its terms (including, without limitation, pursuant to

3.     GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY


	3.1
	Subject
to the terms of this Guarantee:



	(A)
	The
Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and promises to Carnival Corporation that it shall make to the Relevant Creditor the proper and punctual payment of each
Obligation of Carnival Corporation if for any reason Carnival Corporation does not make such payment on its due date. If for any reason Carnival Corporation does not make such payment on its due date,
the Guarantor shall pay the amount due and unpaid to the Relevant Creditor upon written demand upon the Guarantor by the Relevant Creditor.



	(B)
	The
Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and promises to Carnival plc that it shall make to the Relevant Creditor the proper and punctual payment of each Obligation of
Carnival plc if for any reason Carnival plc does not make such payment on its due date. If for any reason Carnival plc does not make such payment on its due date, the Guarantor shall pay the amount
due and unpaid to the Relevant Creditor upon written demand upon the Guarantor by the Relevant Creditor.






	3.2
	The
obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be continuing obligations and shall not be satisfied, discharged or affected by any intermediate payment or settlement of
account. In this Clause 3, references to the Obligations include references to any part of them.



	3.3
	For
the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Guarantee shall require, bind or oblige the Guarantor to fulfil any non-monetary Obligation of Carnival Corporation or Carnival
plc of any kind.



	3.4
	In
the event that the Guarantor is required to make any payment to any Creditor pursuant to Clause 3.1 and/or 3.11 and does make such payment, the Relevant Obligor
unconditionally and irrevocably agrees by way of a full indemnity to reimburse the Guarantor in respect of such payments. 


5







  


	3.5
	A
demand may not be made under this Guarantee without:



	(A)
	a
demand first having been made by the Relevant Creditor on the Relevant Obligor; and



	(B)
	to
the extent, if any, that the terms of the relevant Obligation of the Relevant Obligor (or the underlying obligation of the relevant Principal Debtor), require such recourse,
recourse first being had to any other Person or to any security.






	3.6
	Unless
otherwise provided in this Guarantee, the liabilities and obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall remain in force notwithstanding any act, omission, neglect,
event or matter which would not affect or discharge the liabilities of each Relevant Obligor owed to each corresponding Relevant Creditor. Without prejudice to its generality, the foregoing shall
apply in relation to:



	(A)
	anything
which would have discharged the Guarantor (wholly or in part) but not the Relevant Obligor;



	(B)
	anything
which would have offered the Guarantor (but not the Relevant Obligor) any legal or equitable defence; and



	(C)
	any
winding-up, insolvency, dissolution and/or analogous proceeding of, or any change in constitution or corporate identity or loss of corporate identity by, the Relevant
Obligor or any other Person.






	3.7
	Section 3(2)
and (4) of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 2001 shall not apply to this Guarantee and accordingly:



	(A)
	In
respect of any claim against the Guarantor by a Creditor, the Guarantor shall not have available to it by way of defence or set off any matter that arises from or in connection
with this Guarantee, and which would have been available to the Guarantor by way of defence or set-off if the proceedings had been brought against the Guarantor by the Relevant Obligor.



	(B)
	the
Guarantor shall not have available to it by way of defence or set-off any matter that would have been available to it by way of defence or set-off against
the Creditor if the Creditor had been a party to this Guarantee.



	(C)
	the
Guarantor shall not have available to it by way of counterclaim any matter not arising from this Guarantee that would have been available to it by way of counterclaim against the
Creditor if the Creditor had been a party to this Guarantee.






	3.8
	Any
discharge or release of any liabilities and obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, and any composition or arrangement which the Guarantor may effect with any Creditor
in respect of any such liabilities or obligations, shall be deemed to be made subject to the condition that it will be void to the extent that any or all of the payment or security which the Creditor
may previously have received or may thereafter receive from any Person in respect of the relevant Obligations is set aside or reduced under any applicable law or proves to have been for any reason
invalid.



	3.9
	Without
prejudice to the generality of this Clause 3, and to Clause 3.10 in particular, none of the liabilities or obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee
shall be impaired by any Creditor:



	(A)
	agreeing
with the Relevant Obligor any variation of or departure from (however substantial) the terms of any Obligation and any such variation or departure shall, whatever its nature,
be binding upon the Guarantor in all circumstances; or



	(B)
	releasing
or granting any time or any indulgence whatsoever to the Relevant Obligor.






	3.10
	Despite
anything else in this Guarantee (including Clause 3.9), no variation of or departure from the terms of any Obligation (or any underlying obligation of any Principal
Debtor) agreed with the Relevant Obligor, or any Principal Debtor, after termination of this Guarantee or exclusion of that 


6





 

Obligation
shall be binding on the Guarantor (or extend its liabilities and obligations under this Guarantee) except to the extent, if any, that: 


	(A)
	the
Guarantor explicitly agrees in writing to that variation or departure at the same time as the Relevant Obligor or any Principal Debtor; or



	(B)
	it
reduces the Guarantor's obligations or liability under this Guarantee.






	3.11
	As
a separate, additional and continuing obligation, the Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that should any Obligation not be recoverable from the Guarantor under
Clause 3.1 as a result of the Obligation becoming void, voidable or unenforceable against the Relevant Obligor, the Guarantor undertakes with the Relevant Obligor that it will, as a sole,
original and independent obligor, make payment of the Obligation to the Relevant Creditor by way of a full indemnity on the due date provided for payment by the terms of the Obligation.



	3.12
	The
Guarantor shall, if requested by Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc, as the case may be, (i) enter into agreements to act as a co-issuer or
co-borrower with respect to any Obligation of such requesting party or (ii) execute and deliver a separate guarantee agreement of any Obligation of such requesting party, in each
case, on terms satisfactory to the Guarantor and Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc, as the case may be. If the Guarantor enters into such agreements with respect to any Obligation of Carnival
Corporation or Carnival plc, as the case may be, the Guarantor, Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc may agree that such Obligation shall be excluded from the scope of this Guarantee in accordance
with Clause 4 hereof.

Guarantee) with effect from such future time (being at least five Business Days after the date on which notice of the relevant exclusion is given in accordance with Clause 4.4 or, where the

entered into before that notice is sent, nor for the notice to state the date of the related supplemental deed. 



5.     Termination

to Clause 5.3, this Guarantee shall automatically terminate if, and with effect from, the same time as:

Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc agree to such termination before such notice is given. However, such termination shall not require the agreement of Carnival Corporation or Carnival plc if:



	(A)
	the
Guarantor has given notice of the proposed termination of this Guarantee in accordance with Clause 8.3; and



	(B)
	prior
to the date set out in such notice, a resolution is passed or an order is made for the liquidation of Carnival Corporation and/or Carnival plc.

	(C)
	Upon
any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of the assets of the Guarantor to any Person (including Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc but excluding

under any applicable law, whether as a result of a judgment against the Guarantor or the Relevant Obligor or the liquidation of the Guarantor or the Relevant Obligor, or for any
other reason, any payment under or in connection with this Guarantee is made or is recovered in a currency (the "other currency") other than that in which it is required to be paid under the terms of
the relevant Obligation (the "agreed currency") then, to the extent that the payment to the Creditor (when converted at the rate of exchange on the date of payment, or in the case of a liquidation,
