        <footnote id="F1">Grant of restricted stock units (&quot;MTE RSUs&quot;) made pursuant to the Carnival Corporation 2011 Stock Plan. Award of MTE RSUs represent a hypothetical interest in Carnival Corporation common stock. The restriction on the MTE RSUs lapse on the second anniversary of the grant date. The MTE RSUs will accumulate dividend equivalents and may only be settled in shares.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The grant was approved by the Compensation Committee as a total value to be received in the form of RSUs. The Compensation Committee also approved that the number of RSUs were determined by dividing the value by the closing price on date of grant.</footnote>
    </footnotes>

    <remarks>The amendment reflects a correction in the number of shares awarded from 7,845 to 7,485, and total shares beneficially owned corrected from 29,364.5862 to 29,004.5862; a typo occurred on both entries in the FORM 4 filed January 16, 2019. This FORM 4/A is filed to fix typos and reflects the reporting person's holdings as of the date of this amendment.</remarks>
