Insights

TL;DR: Routine intra-family trust transfer that does not clearly change ultimate indirect control; mostly an administrative gift transaction.

The Form 4 documents a gift transfer of 739,492 Trust Shares under code G and reports detailed indirect holdings across multiple trusts totaling millions of paired Trust Shares. This disclosure is transactional rather than operational and contains no earnings, debt, or corporate action data. For investors, the filing signals a reallocation of ownership among related trusts without explicit change to public float or corporate governance beyond the stated pairing mechanism between Trust Shares and Carnival Corporation common stock.

TL;DR: Insider disclosure of trust-level share movement; describes structure of special voting Trust Shares paired with common stock.

The filing reiterates the Trust structure created in the DLC transaction and confirms that Trust Shares represent beneficial interests in Carnival plc's special voting share and are paired with Carnival Corporation common stock. The reported gift and the reporting person's disclaimer of beneficial ownership for certain trust holdings are relevant to understanding beneficial ownership attribution, but the filing does not indicate any change in board composition, voting agreements, or control arrangements beyond the described trust relationships.

Explanation of Responses:
1. Represents trust shares (the "Trust Shares") of beneficial interests in P&O Princess Voting Trust (the "Trust"). In connection with the dual listed company transaction between Carnival plc (fka P&O Princess Cruises plc) and Carnival Corporation (the "DLC Transaction"), Carnival plc issued one special voting share to the Trust and, following a series of transactions, the Trust Shares were distributed to holders of common stock of Carnival Corporation (the "Carnival Corporation Common Stock"). Since completion of the DLC transaction on April 17, 2003, if Carnival Corporation issues Carnival Corporation Common Stock to a person, the Trust will issue an equivalent number of Trust Shares to such person. The Trust Shares are paired with shares of Carnival Corporation Common Stock and are represented by the same stock certificate. The Trust Shares represent a beneficial interest in the Carnival plc special voting share.
2. This transaction was a transfer for no consideration, thus deemed a gift for federal securities laws, from Nickel KA 2022 Trust #1, a trust for thebenefit of Mr. Arison, to 2022 KA Remainder Trust, a trust for the benefit of one of Mr. Arison's children.
