Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 6, 2023, Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain affiliates of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited (collectively with such affiliates, “Fairfax”) entered into an amendment to that certain 4.75% Series B Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Series B SPA”), dated February 23, 2022, by and among the Company and certain Fairfax affiliates, and an amendment to that certain 6.00% Series C Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Series C SPA”, together with the Series B SPA, the “SPAs”), dated June 4, 2023, by and among the Company and certain Fairfax affiliates, to update the standstill provisions in each of the SPAs. The amendment primarily provides for an increase to Fairfax’s cap on purchases of any of the Company’s common stock, or other equity-linked securities, from 20% of the Company’s fully diluted common stock to an amount not to exceed (x) the beneficial ownership (as defined under Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of 27.5% of the total voting power of the Company’s voting stock nor (y) 27.5% of the Company’s fully diluted common stock. As a result of the amendments to the SPAs, Fairfax will be permitted to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market. There can be no assurance that Fairfax will make any such purchases.

The foregoing summaries of the Series B SPA amendment and the Series C SPA amendment are each qualified in their entirety by the full text of amendments, a copy of each of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
