Carnival Named Sponsor of Katrina Relief Game

Carnival Cruise Lines to serve as Title Sponsor Of Hurricane Katrina
Relief Game

Carnival To Purchase All Remaining Tickets; Guarantees At Least $1
Million Donation to Hurricane Relief

MIAMI, FL - The Miami HEAT announced today that Carnival Cruise Lines
has become the title sponsor of the Hurricane Katrina Relief Game on
Monday, October 10, between the Miami HEAT and the San Antonio Spurs.
The proceeds from the game, including all ticket revenue, concessions,
parking and retail sales, will be donated to the American Red Cross
and a to be determined charity on behalf of the HEAT, the Spurs and
the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA).

In becoming the title sponsor of the game, Carnival has agreed to
purchase all of the tickets that remain following Tuesday's individual
game ticket on sale event. Carnival's ticket purchase guarantees that
the game will be sold out, ensuring that the donation to the Hurricane
Katrina relief efforts will top the $1 million mark.

"I am honored that Carnival Cruise Lines will ensure that the maximum
amount of money be donated to Hurricane Katrina relief," said Micky
Arison, Carnival Corporation & plc Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer. "It's crucial in this time of need that everyone play their
part and do whatever they can to help the victims of such a
devastating event."

Carnival will make a number of the tickets available to the families
of their employees. The remaining tickets will be distributed by both
the HEAT Community Affairs department and the Carnival Foundation to
local community groups, schools and other worthy organizations.
