ITEM 7.01    REGULATION FD

On June 12, 2019, Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K, announcing that the Company has expanded its joint venture relationship with AXA Investment Managers – Real Assets in Ireland. The information in this Item 7.01 or in Exhibit 99.1 will not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section or Section 11 or 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such information will not be incorporated by reference into any filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

ITEM 8.01    OTHER EVENTS.

On June 6, 2019, the Company expanded its joint venture relationship (“KW – AXA JV”) with AXA Investment Managers – Real Assets (“AXA”) with the formation of a new 50:50 joint venture with respect to the Capital Dock mixed-use campus (“Capital Dock”) and adjoining State Street building in Dublin, Ireland. The KW – AXA JV will commence by AXA investing in a 50% ownership stake in the Capital Dock and the State Street building from the Company’s former equity partners in such assets. In connection with the commencement of the KW – AXA JV, the Company increased its ownership interest in Capital Dock to 50% from 42.5% by purchasing an additional 7.5% ownership interest held by a former equity partner. The Company will continue to hold a 50% ownership interest in the State Street building. The KW – AXA JV will be managed by the Company and the Company will receive certain fees for its services, including an asset management fee, development fee, acquisition fee and performance fee. Capital Dock and the State Street building will be deconsolidated from the Company’s financial statements and its investment going forward in such assets will be accounted for as an unconsolidated investment utilizing the fair value option election.

The Company also recently completed the refinancing of the construction loan on the Capital Dock property with a five-year floating-rate interest only loan that bears an effective interest rate of 1.56%.
