On March 23, 2014, Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) provided the following updated information with respect to certain activities after December 31, 2014.

Subsequent to December 31, 2014, the Company and its equity partners, including Kennedy Wilson Europe Real Estate plc (“KWE), acquired approximately $863.2 million of real estate-related investments, which include 163 commercial properties totaling 2.9 million square feet and one eight-loan portfolio in the United Kingdom purchased and held directly by KWE as well as three commercial properties in the Western United States totaling 0.4 million square feet and one multifamily property in the Western United States comprising 144 units. The Company’s equity investment in these transactions (excluding KWE) was approximately $10.0 million. In addition, the Company purchased 1,075,000 shares of KWE for a total purchase price of approximately £11.8 million (approximately $18.0 million).

As of March 23, 2015, the Company is under separate contracts to purchase 31 multifamily properties and two residential developments in the Western United States and 17 commercial properties in the United Kingdom through KWE at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $648.4 million. The Company anticipates financing these acquisitions with a combination of debt financing, balance sheet cash and partner equity. With respect to 48 of these assets with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $621.7 million, the Company has non-refundable deposits of approximately $13.1 million held in escrow. The amount of the Company’s equity investment in these acquisitions has not yet been determined, but the Company currently expects its aggregate equity investment in these acquisitions to be between $95 million to $110 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete the potential acquisitions under contract.

The Company is currently considering various strategic options with respect to its investments in Japan (approximately 2,400 multifamily units), including asset and entity-level sales, equity recapitalizations, refinancing the Company’s current property-level debt and/or entering into joint ventures with existing or new equity partners. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete any of these transactions.
