SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of February 7, 2013, between Carnival Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Republic of Panama (the “Company”), Carnival plc, a company incorporated and registered under the laws of England and Wales (the “Guarantor”) and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America (the “Trustee”).

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Company and the Guarantor have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture, dated as of December 6, 2012, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 6, 2012 (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance from time to time of its debentures, notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness (hereinafter called “Securities”) in one or more fully registered series;

WHEREAS, Sections 2.1, 3.1 and 9.1(vii) of the Indenture provide that the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee may from time to time enter into one or more indentures supplemental thereto to establish the form or terms of a new series of Securities; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue 1.20% Senior Notes Due 2016 (the “2016 Notes”), a new series of Securities, the issuance of which was authorized pursuant to resolutions adopted by the Offering Committee of the Company and the Guarantor on January 31, 2013;

WHEREAS, all things necessary have been done to make this Supplemental Indenture a valid agreement of the Company and the Guarantor, in accordance with their and its terms, and to make the 2016 Notes, when executed by the Company and the Guarantor and authenticated and delivered hereunder and duly issued by the Company, the valid obligations of the Company and the Guarantor.

NOW THEREFORE:

In consideration of the promises provided for herein, the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree as follows:

ARTICLE ONE

THE 2016 Notes

Section 101 Provisions Applicable Only to 2016 Notes.

The provisions contained in this Article One shall apply to the 2016 Notes only and not to any other series of Securities issued under the Indenture and any covenants provided herein are expressly being included solely for the benefit of the 2016 Notes and not for the benefit of any other series of Security issued under the Indenture. These provisions shall be effective for so long as there remain any 2016 Notes Outstanding.

Section 102 Designation of 2016 Notes; Establishment of Form.

There shall be a series of 2016 Notes designated “1.20% Senior Notes Due 2016” of the Company, guaranteed by the Guarantor, and the form thereof shall be substantially as set forth in Annex A hereto, which is incorporated into and shall be deemed a part of this Supplemental Indenture, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by the Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officer or officers of the Company executing such 2016 Notes, as evidenced by their execution of the 2016 Notes.

Section 103 Amount.

The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver 2016 Notes for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500,000,000 upon a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of 2016 Notes, without any further action by the Company. The aggregate principal amount of 2016 Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture, as supplemented hereby, is unlimited. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the 2016 Notes, issue additional notes having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the 2016 Notes. Any additional 2016 Notes, together with the original issuance of 2016 Notes, will constitute a single series of 2016 Notes under the Indenture. No additional 2016 Notes may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred with respect to the 2016 Notes. The Company may not issue new 2016 Notes to replace 2016 Notes that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 104 Interest

Outstanding 2016 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 1.20% per annum, from February 7, 2013 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually on February 5 and August 5 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) in each year, commencing August 5, 2013, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name the 2016 Notes (or, one or more Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on

the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be January 20 or July 20 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name the 2016 Notes (or, one or more Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice thereof shall be given to Holders of 2016 Notes of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the 2016 Notes of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

In accordance with Section 3.10 of the Indenture, interest on the 2016 Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Each payment of interest on the 2016 Notes shall include interest accrued through the day before the applicable Interest Payment Date for the 2016 Notes. If interest on the 2016 Notes is payable on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day when banks are not open for business in St. Xxxx, Minnesota or New York, New York, the Company will make the payment on the next Business Day, and no interest will accrue as a result of the delay in payment. Interest will cease to accrue on a 2016 Note upon its maturity or redemption.

Section 105 Denominations.

Each 2016 Note shall be in fully registered form without coupons, in a denomination of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000.

Section 106 Paying Agent and Registrar.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as the Paying Agent and Registrar in connection with the 2016 Notes.

Section 107 Place of Payment.

The Place of Payment for the 2016 Notes and the place or places where the 2016 Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange or redemption and where notices may be given to the Company in respect of the 2016 Notes is at the office of the Trustee in St. Xxxx, Minnesota or New York, New York and at the agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose at the office of the Trustee; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

Section 108 Stated Maturity.

The date on which the principal of the 2016 Notes is due and payable, unless earlier accelerated or redeemed pursuant to the Indenture, shall be February 5, 2016.

Section 109 Redemption.

In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2016 Notes repurchased plus accrued and

unpaid interest, if any, on the 2016 Notes repurchased, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will be required to mail a notice to Holders of 2016 Notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the 2016 Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures described below.

Such notice shall state:

(1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 114 and that all 2016 Notes tendered and not withdrawn will be accepted for payment;

(2) the purchase price (including the amount of accrued interest) and the Change of Control Payment Date;

(7) that Holders whose 2016 Notes are purchased only in part will be issued new 2016 Notes in a principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of the 2016 Notes surrendered (equal to $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof).

If mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, the notice will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the consummation of the Change of Control on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, provided that a Change of Control Offer may only be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event and be conditional on such Change of Control Triggering Event if a definitive agreement is in place for

the Change of Control Triggering Event at the time such conditional Change of Control Offer is made.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will be required to:

(a) accept for payment all 2016 Notes or portions of 2016 Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(b) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all 2016 Notes or portions of 2016 Notes properly tendered; and

The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of 2016 Notes so tendered the Change of Control Purchase Price for such 2016 Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new 2016 Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the 2016 Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new 2016 Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if (i) a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements that the Company would have been required to meet had the Company made such an offer, and (ii) such third party purchases all 2016 Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company will not repurchase any 2016 Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the offer or repurchase of the 2016 Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 114 or the 2016 Notes, the Company will be required to comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 114 or the 2016 Notes by virtue of such conflicts.

Section 115 Limitation on Liens.

(a) Neither the Company nor the Guarantor will create or incur, or suffer to be created or incurred or come to exist any Security Interest in respect of Indebtedness For Borrowed Money on any vessel or other of its respective properties or assets of any kind, real or personal, tangible or intangible, included in the consolidated balance sheet of the Carnival Corporation & plc Group in accordance with GAAP, nor shall the Company permit any member of the Carnival Corporation & plc Group to do any of the foregoing, unless the Company makes or causes to be made effective provisions whereby either (i) the 2016 Notes will be secured by a Security Interest on such vessels, properties or assets equally and ratably with (or prior to) all other Indebtedness For Borrowed Money thereby secured or (ii) the 2016 Notes will be secured by a Security Interest on other vessels, properties or assets with a book value at least equal to the principal amount of the 2016 Notes that ranks prior to all other Indebtedness For Borrowed Money thereby secured. The foregoing restriction does not apply to any Security Interest in respect of Indebtedness For Borrowed Money up to an amount not greater than 40% of the amount of the total assets of the Carnival Corporation & plc Group as shown in the Carnival Corporation & plc Group’s most recent consolidated balance sheet (excluding for these purposes the value of any intangible assets).

(b) Any Security Interest granted to the holders of the 2016 Notes under clauses (i) or (ii) of paragraph (a) above will terminate automatically when any other Indebtedness For Borrowed Money that causes such Security Interest to be granted ceases to be secured by any vessels, assets or properties of the Carnival Corporation & plc Group. In addition, such Security Interests shall terminate automatically upon (i) payment in full of the principal of and premium on (if any), together with accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2016 Notes and all other obligations under the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, in respect of the 2016 Notes, that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal and premium on (if any), together with accrued and unpaid interest, is paid or (ii) the Company shall have exercised its option to satisfy and discharge all the Securities of the Indenture under Article IV of the Indenture. To the extent that the 2016 Notes are secured by a Security Interest on vessels, properties or assets of Carnival Corporation & plc Group equally and ratably with other Indebtedness for Borrowed Money, then the collateral release provisions of the security documents for the 2016 Notes will be substantially the same as those set forth in the security documents for the other Indebtedness for Money Borrowed.

Upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel certifying that all conditions precedent under the this Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture, and security documents, if any, to the release of the Security Interest have been met and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release prepared by the Company, the Trustee shall execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Company’s expense) such documents, instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Security Interest for the benefit of the Holders of the 2016 Notes permitted to be released pursuant to this Section 115(b).

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of December 6, 2012, as amended and supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of December 6, 2012 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 7, 2013 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”) (the Base Indenture, as amended and supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), each among the Company, the Guarantor and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of which this Security is a part), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the tame upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the Series designated on the face hereof. The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of Securities, issue additional securities having the same terms and conditions as the Securities in all respects, except for the original issue date, issue price and the first interest payment date. Any such additional securities will, together with the Securities, constitute a single series of the Securities under the Indenture.

Paying Agent and Registrar

Initially, the Trustee will be the Paying Agent and Registrar with respect to this Security. The Company reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent or Registrar, to appoint additional or other Paying Agents and other Registrars and to approve any change in the office through which any Paying Agent or Registrar acts; provided that there will at all times be a Paying Agent in the City of New York.

Guarantees

Carnival plc irrevocably, unconditionally, and absolutely guarantees, jointly and severally and on a continuing basis, to each Holder of Securities, until final and indefeasible payment of the amounts referred to in clause (i) below have been made: (i) the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Securities at any time outstanding and the due and punctual payment of all other amounts payable, and all other amounts owing, by the Company to the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture and the Securities (including, without limitation, any Additional Amounts which may be owing to any of the Holders of Securities pursuant to the terms of Section 10.5 of the Indenture), in each case when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise and all other monetary

obligations of the Company thereunder, all in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof and (ii) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance and fulfillment by the Company of all duties, agreements, covenants and obligations of the Company under the Indenture and the Securities.

The Guarantees constitute guarantees of payment, performance and compliance and not merely of collection. The obligation of the Guarantor to make any payments may be satisfied by causing the Company or any other Person to make such payments. Further, the Guarantor agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder of Securities in enforcing any of their respective rights under the Guarantees.

Additional Amounts

The Company will pay to the Holders such Additional Amounts as may become payable under Section 10.5 of the Indenture.

The Guarantor will pay to the Holders such Guarantor Additional Amounts as may become payable under Section 15.2 of the Indenture.

Optional Redemption

The Securities will be redeemable at any time and from time to time, as a whole or in part, at the option of the Company, on at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, prior notice mailed to the registered address of each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, as defined below, discounted to the redemption date, on a semi-annual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate, as defined below, plus 15 basis points, plus, in either case, accrued interest to the date of redemption that has not been paid (such redemption price, the “Redemption Price”).

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to the Securities, the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (“Remaining Life”) of the Securities being redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of such Securities.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date for the Securities: (1) the average of two Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest of four of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or (2) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all quotations obtained by the Trustee.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, to be appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Xxxxxxx, Sachs & Co., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated and one other primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) as selected by the Company, and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another primary U.S. government securities dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue, expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount, quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Security to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related redemption date but for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such redemption date is not an interest payment date with respect to such Security, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon will be deemed to be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date for the Securities: (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury debt securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the maturity date for the Securities, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month; or (2) if that 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 semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that redemption date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third business day preceding the redemption date.

Any redemption or notice of any redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to,

completion of an equity offering or Change of Control, issuance of indebtedness or other transaction or event. Notice of any redemption in respect thereof will be given prior to the completion thereof and may be partial as a result of only some of the conditions being satisfied. The Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of its obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person.

On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or any portion thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price. On or before the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with a paying agent, or the Trustee, money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on the Securities to be redeemed on such date. If the Company elects to redeem less than all of the Securities, then the Trustee will select the particular Securities to be redeemed by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. To the extent consistent with the terms set forth above, the redemption provisions set forth in Article XI of the Indenture shall apply to any such optional redemption.
