As we have shareholders in both the United Kingdom and the United States, our intention is to rotate the location of the annual meetings between the United States and the United Kingdom each year in order to accommodate shareholders on both sides of the Atlantic. Last year we held our annual meetings in Southampton, England, and this year we will be holding them in New York City. The annual meetings will be held at Pier 88, New York City Passenger Ship Terminal in New York City on Thursday, April 22, 2004. The meetings will commence at 10:00 a.m. (New York time), and although technically two separate meetings (the Carnival plc meeting will begin first), shareholders of Carnival Corporation may attend the Carnival plc meeting and vice-versa. Following the annual meetings, our shareholders will have the opportunity to tour the Queen Mary 2. Details are included in our mailing materials. We are also offering an audio webcast of the annual meetings. If you choose to listen to the webcast, go to one of our websites, www.carnivalcorp.com or www.carnivalplc.com, shortly before the start of the meetings and follow the instructions provided.

Carnival Corporation: the Costa Concordia Crisis Case A
Carnival Corporation: The Costa Concordia Crisis Case A “We were stuck. He told us we couldn’t get off. I thought my baby was going to die – I thought we were all going to die. The Captain just went, he just left the boat, left us there. I just cannot believe it.”1 Isabelle Mougin, Passenger "I haven't lost hope yet, anything can still happen, a miracle. He may be injured, he may have lost consciousness, anything may have happened. I still have hope, I always have hope. Hope is the last thing to die.”2 Kevin Rubello, Brother to Missing Costa Concordia Employee On January 13, 2012, MickyArison (“Mr. Arison”) sat on a deck chair on the starboard side of one his company’s many cruise ships and enjoyed the view of the lush, green island of St. Bart’s. It was a beautiful, warm day and the sun was reflecting off the clear, tranquil Caribbean water. Since taking the helm of the cruise company founded in 1972 by his father, Mr. Arison had successfully established Carnival as the largest cruise operator in the world. Through a series of cruise line acquisitions across the globe, Mr. Arison had grown the company from one cruise line to a company comprised of 10 cruise lines, operating a combined total of over 101 ships. While the company’s earnings per share (EPS) was slightly lower in 2011 than in 2010, the company was successfully coping with the global recession. With signs of a global economic recovery appearing, Mr. Arison sat back in his chair and while sipping a cup of tea and assured himself that the turbulent waters of the global recession were in his company’s wake.

Financing the Israeli Occupation
Financing the Israeli Occupation The Direct Involvement of Israeli Banks in Illegal Israeli Settlement Activity and Control over the Palestinian Banking Market Who Profits from the Occupation October 2010 Financing the Israeli Occupation 2010 Who Profits from the Occupation 1 The Coalition of Women for Peace brings together ten feminist peace organizations and non-affiliated activist women in Israel. Founded soon after the outbreak of the Second Intifada in 2000, CWP today is a leading voice against the occupation, committed to feminist principles of organizing and Jewish-Palestinian partnership in a relentless struggle for a just peace. CWP continuously voices a critical position against militarism and advocates for radical social and political change. Its work includes direct action and public campaigning in Israel and internationally; a pioneering investigative project exposing the occupation industry; outreach to Israeli audiences and political empowerment of women across communities; and, capacity-building and support for grassroots activists and initiatives for peace and justice. Who Profits from the Occupation is a research project of the Coalition of Women for Peace. Initiated in response to the Palestinian call for boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) on Israel, this research project is dedicated to exposing the commercial involvement of Israeli and international companies in the continuing Israeli control over Palestinian and Syrian land. The project publishes information about these companies on its website (www.whoprofits. org), produces in-depth reports and serves as an information center. 3 Yegia Kapayim St., Tel Aviv, Israel P.O.Box 29214, Tel Aviv 61292, Israel Tel: 972-3-5281005 E-mail: [email protected] Financing the Israeli Occupation 2010 Who Profits from the Occupation 2 Table of Contents Executive Summary 4-5 Introduction: The Israeli Banks 6-8 Methodology 8 1.
