ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On June 28, 2011, Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement with entities affiliated with an institutional investor and Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, a corporation organized under the laws of Canada (“Fairfax”), in connection with a private placement of 4,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to an institutional investor and Fairfax (the “Private Placement”) at a price of $10.70 per share. The Private Placement is expected to close on or about June 30, 2011 and is subject to customary closing conditions. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement to fund future acquisitions and for general working capital purposes.

The 4,800,000 shares of common stock issued in the Private Placement will be “restricted shares” as defined in Rule 144.

The shares of common stock to be issued in the Private Placement will not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. Pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, the Company is required to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities Commission covering the resale of the shares of common stock to be issued to the purchasers in the Private Placement.

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

The foregoing description of the securities purchase agreement, including the registration rights, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in its entirety to the full text of the securities purchase agreement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
