ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD
On September 13, 2016, Kennedy Wilson Europe Real Estate plc (“KWE,” LSE: KWE) priced its offering of an additional £200 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed rate bonds (the “New Bonds”) by way of a tap of the £300 million 3.95% Bonds due 2022 issued by KWE on June 30, 2015 (the “Initial Bonds,” and together with the New Bonds, the “Bonds”). The New Bonds will be consolidated and form a single series with the Initial Bonds. The New Bonds will be issued at a yield of 3.572% and will have an annual fixed coupon of 3.95%. The issue and settlement date for the New Bonds is currently expected to be September 19, 2016. The Bonds and KWE are rated BBB (outlook stable) by Standard & Poor’s.
Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) currently owns approximately 21.75% of the total issued share capital of KWE. A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Jersey also serves as KWE’s external manager pursuant to an investment management agreement.
The information in this report is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
The Bonds are being sold only outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Bonds have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to United States persons (within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act) absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Bonds, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the Bonds in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
