On May 7, 2026, Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc completed the unification of their dual listed company (DLC) structure under a single company, Carnival Corporation Ltd., with Carnival plc becoming a UK subsidiary of Carnival Corporation Ltd. In addition, Carnival Corporation also migrated its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Republic of Panama to Bermuda and changed its name to “Carnival Corporation Ltd.”

As a result of the above transactions, all Carnival plc ordinary shares (other than certain excluded shares) were acquired by Carnival Corporation, and each shareholder subject to the scheme of arrangement received one Carnival Corporation Ltd. common share for each Carnival plc ordinary share held as of 6 p.m. (BST) on May 5, 2026. The listing of Carnival plc’s ordinary shares on the Official List of the UK Financial Conduct Authority and the admission to trading of the Carnival plc shares on the London Stock Exchange were cancelled on May 7, 2026. 

All then-outstanding Carnival plc American Depositary Shares (ADSs) were also exchanged for Carnival Corporation Ltd. common shares on a one-for-one basis.

Carnival Corporation’s NYSE-listed common shares are not capable of being held, transferred or settled directly through the CREST settlement system. In order to facilitate holding Carnival Corporation common shares in the UK through the CREST system after the DLC unification, Carnival Corporation Ltd. entered into depositary interest arrangements with Equiniti Financial Services Limited (Equiniti). As part of this arrangement, Equiniti issued DIs representing an entitlement to Carnival Corporation common shares on a 1:1 basis to eligible former shareholders of Carnival plc.

DIs have the same economic rights as are attached to the Carnival Corporation common shares and reflect a beneficial ownership interest in the equivalent number of Carnival Corporation common shares. DIs may be held, transferred and settled through CREST. Holders of DIs are also able to cancel their DIs by submitting an instruction in respect of the underlying Carnival Corporation Ltd. common shares through CREST to Equiniti, as the depositary.

CSN is a service sponsored by Carnival Corporation and provided by Equiniti to facilitate the holding of Carnival Corporation shares by shareholders in the UK and other eligible jurisdictions who may be unfamiliar with U.S. market formalities and face logistical difficulties in holding shares listed on a U.S. stock exchange. As part of this service, your DIs, representing an entitlement to Carnival Corporation common shares, are held on your behalf by Equiniti (in accordance with the CSN Terms and Conditions). 

CSN shareholders have similar rights to other DI holders, including equivalent voting rights, are entitled to receive any dividends declared by Carnival Corporation to their nominated bank account, and are able to trade their DIs via share dealing services provided by Equiniti. They may also transfer their DIs out of the CSN to another nominee arrangement or receive Carnival Corporation common shares directly through the U.S. transfer agent’s Direct Registration System, in accordance with the CSN Terms and Conditions.

Dividends on DIs held in the CSN will be paid by direct payment only, into nominated bank accounts. Dividends will not be paid by cheque. Where no valid bank account details have been provided, dividends will be retained safely until they are claimed, and a fee may be charged for their release.

For more information about the CSN, please visit www.shareview.info/products/csn. You can download the latest CSN Terms and Conditions and relevant transfer forms by visiting http://www.shareview.info/documents/usefuldocs and selecting ‘Carnival’ from the Company drop-down list, or by contacting Equiniti.
