        The
Shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on transfer. Unless excepted by the Board of Directors or exempted by the terms of the Articles of Incorporation of
Carnival Corporation, no Person may (1) Beneficially Own Shares in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding Shares, by value, vote or number, determined as provided in the Articles of Incorporation of
Carnival Corporation, and computed with regard to all outstanding Shares and, to the extent provided by the Code, all Shares issuable under existing options and exchange rights that have not been
exercised; or (2) Beneficially Own Shares which would result in the Corporation being "closely held." Unless so excepted, any acquisition of Shares and continued holding of ownership
constitutes a continuous representation of compliance with the above limitations, and any Person who attempts to Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the above limitations has an affirmative
obligation to notify the Corporation immediately upon such attempt. If the restrictions on transfer are violated, the transfer will be void ab initio
and the Shares represented hereby will be designated and treated as Excess Shares that will be held in trust. Excess Shares may not be transferred at a profit and may be purchased by the Corporation.
In addition, certain Beneficial Owners must give written notice as to certain information on demand and on exceeding certain ownership levels. All terms not defined in this legend have the meanings
provided in the Articles of Incorporation of Carnival Corporation. The Corporation will mail without charge to any requesting shareholder a copy of the Articles of Incorporation, including the express
terms of each class and series of the authorized Shares of the Corporation, within five (5) days after receipt by the Secretary of the Corporation of a written request therefor. 

        The
shares represented by this certificate are subject to certain restrictions on ownership of shares of Carnival Corporation and P&O Princess Cruises plc. Under the terms of the
Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, if any person acquires Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares or voting control over such shares, and after giving effect to such
acquisition, such person, together with any person or persons Acting in Concert with such acquiring person, holds or exercises voting control over Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O Princess Ordinary
Shares which is equal to or in excess of such number of shares which, in aggregate, represent the right to cast 30% or more of the votes on a Joint Electorate Action, such shares which cause that
ownership limit to be equaled or exceeded may be designated as Combined Group Excess Shares. In addition, any additional acquisition of Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares by a
person that, together with any person or persons Acting in Concert, holds or has voting control over Carnival Common Stock and/or P&O Princess Ordinary Shares representing the right to cast not less
than 30% and not more than 50% of the votes on a Joint Electorate Action, may result in certain shares being designated as Combined Group Excess Shares. Any Carnival Common Stock that are designated
as Combined Group Excess Shares will be transferred to a trustee, and the prior holder thereof will have no right to vote such shares or receive dividends or other distributions with respect thereto.
A person may exceed the ownership limits described above if such person makes a Qualifying Takeover Offer with respect to all Carnival Common Stock and P&O Princess Ordinary Shares. Holders may be
required to provide written notice and other information to the Corporation if such ownership levels are equaled or exceeded. The foregoing is only a summary of the applicable restrictions and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation. The Corporation will mail without charge to any requesting shareholder of the Corporation a copy of the
Articles of Incorporation, within five (5) days after receipt by the Secretary of the Corporation of a written request therefor. All terms not defined in this legend have the meanings provided

service charge shall be made for the registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes; provided, however, that the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with the exchange or transfer.

Notes shall not be superior in right of payment to, and shall rank pari passu with, all other unsecured and unsubordinated
indebtedness of the Company.

face hereof.]*The Securities of this series [of which this Global Security is a part]* are limited in aggregate principal amount to
$    ,000,000, except as provided in the            Supplemental Indenture. 

        Optional Redemption.    The Securities of this series are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time, at the option of the
Company, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of: 

	•
	100%
of the principal amount of the Securities of this series then Outstanding to be redeemed, or

	•
	the
sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon from the Redemption Date to the Maturity Date computed by discounting
such payments to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a rate equal to the

adjusted to constant maturity under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after
the Remaining Life, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Adjusted Treasury Rate will be interpolated or
extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or

	•
	if
such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the

provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series with respect to which a default under the Indenture shall have occurred and

permits the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive
compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 

        Obligations Unconditional.    No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall

transferees.

like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
