This Amendment No. 7 (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on February 4, 2013, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed on August 16, 2013, Amendment No. 2 filed on December 9, 2013, Amendment No. 3 filed on December 31, 2013, Amendment No. 4 filed on March 10, 2014, Amendment No. 5 filed on November 21, 2014 and Amendment No. 6 filed on March 11, 2015 (as so amended, the “Original Schedule 13D” and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment, the “Schedule 13D”) by Star NCLC Holdings Ltd. (“Star NCLC”) and Genting Hong Kong Limited (“Genting HK”) with respect to the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 2.  Identity and Background

This Amendment amends and restates the second and fourth paragraphs of Item 2 of the Original Schedule 13D in its entirety as follows:

“Star NCLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genting HK, is the record owner of an aggregate of 50,569,334 Ordinary Shares (the “Genting Shares”).  The Ordinary Shares reported as beneficially owned by each Reporting Person include only those Ordinary Shares over which such person may be deemed to have voting or dispositive power.”

“As of March 20, 2015, the principal shareholders of Genting HK are: Golden Hope Limited (“GHL”) as trustee of the Golden Hope Unit Trust (“GHUT”) – 49.84%, and Genting Malaysia Berhad (“GENM”) – 17.81%.  GHL is a company incorporated in the Isle of Man acting as trustee of GHUT, a private unit trust which is held directly and indirectly by First Names Trust Company (Isle of Man) Limited, as trustee of a discretionary trust, the beneficiaries of which are Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay and certain members of his family (the “Lim Family”). GENM is a Malaysian company listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad in which Parkview Management Sdn Bhd, as trustee of a discretionary trust, the beneficiaries of which are the Lim Family, has a substantial indirect beneficial interest. As a result, an aggregate of 67.65% of Genting HK’s outstanding shares is owned by GENM and GHL as trustee of GHUT, directly or indirectly, as of March 20, 2015.”

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

This Amendment amends Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D by inserting the following before the paragraph titled “General”:

Waiver of Certain Rights under the Shareholders Agreement (April 2015)

On April 9, 2015, Genting HK and Star NCLC waived certain of their rights under the Shareholders Agreement pursuant to a letter dated April 9, 2015 (the “Waiver Letter”), such waiver to automatically be null and void and revoked upon the occurrence of certain circumstances described in the Waiver Letter.

This Amendment amends and restates the last paragraph of Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D in its entirety as set forth below:

“References to and descriptions of the Shareholders Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement, the Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement, the Dec. 2013 Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the Dec. 2013 Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement, the Feb. 2014 Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the Feb. 2014 Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement and the Waiver Letter set forth above in this Item 4 do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Shareholders Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement, the Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement, the Dec. 2013 Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the Dec. 2013 Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement, the Feb. 2014 Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the Feb. 2014 Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement, the Nov. 2014 Amendment to the Shareholder’s Agreement, the March 2015 Resale Offering Underwriting Agreement, the March 2015 Resale Offering Lock-Up Agreement and the Waiver Letter, which have been filed as Exhibit 2, Exhibit 3, Exhibit 4, Exhibit 5, Exhibit 6, Exhibit 7, Exhibit 8, Exhibit 9, Exhibit 10, Exhibit 11, Exhibit 12 and Exhibit 13, respectively, and are incorporated herein by this reference.”

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

There is no change in the number of Ordinary Shares reported as being beneficially owned in this Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13D, from the Ordinary Shares reported as being beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D.

This Amendment amends and restates paragraphs 2 and 3 of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D as set forth below:

“(a)–(b) The following disclosure assumes that there are 229,719,240 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of March 20, 2015 as reported in the Preliminary Proxy Statement filed by the Issuer with the Commission on April 2, 2015.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 50,569,334 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, which constitutes approximately 22.0 % of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.”
