    Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     

    The disclosure set forth below under Item 2.03 is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

    Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

     

    The disclosure set forth below under Item 2.03 is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

     

    Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

     

    On June 13, 2025, Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, each as a borrower, entered into a new $4.5 billion multi-currency revolving credit agreement (the “New Revolver”) with a syndicate of financial institutions (the “Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The New Revolver will replace the $1.9 billion, €0.9 billion and £0.1 billion existing multi-currency revolving credit agreement (the “Existing Revolver”) entered into by Carnival Holdings (Bermuda) II Limited, a subsidiary of Carnival Corporation, with a syndicate of financial institutions and J.P. Morgan SE, as facilities agent. The New Revolver also contains an accordion feature, allowing for up to $1.0 billion of additional revolving commitments.

     

    Borrowings under the New Revolver bear interest at a rate of term SOFR, EURIBOR, or daily SONIA, as applicable, plus a margin based on the long-term credit ratings of Carnival Corporation.

     

    The New Revolver contains representations, warranties, covenants and events of default that are customary for a transaction of this type. Borrowings may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The New Revolver will be unsecured and initially guaranteed on an unsecured basis by the same subsidiaries of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc that guarantee Carnival Corporation’s senior secured term loan facilities. Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc have each guaranteed on an unsecured basis each other’s respective obligations as well as the obligations of the subsidiary guarantors under the New Revolver.

     

    The New Revolver will mature on June 13, 2030, at which time all outstanding amounts under the New Revolver will be due and payable.

     

    Some of the Lenders under the New Revolver and the Existing Revolver and their affiliates have various relationships with Carnival Corporation, Carnival plc and certain of their subsidiaries involving the provision of financial services, including cash management, investment banking and trust services. In addition, Carnival Corporation & plc have entered into other loan arrangements as well as certain derivative arrangements with certain of the Lenders and their affiliates.
