On October 22, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) upon the recommendation of the Company’s Nominating Committee, elected Ms. Nadine I. Watt and Mr. Michael Eisner as directors of the Company, effective October 22, 2024. Ms. Watt will serve as a member of the class of directors whose term will expire at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company and Mr. Eisner will serve as a member of the class of directors whose term will expire at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company. Ms. Watt and Mr. Eisner were each determined to be independent by the Board pursuant to the applicable independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange.

Ms. Watt has served as the Chief Executive Officer of Watt Companies, Inc., a commercial and residential real estate development and investment company with properties throughout California and the western states, since December 2019 and as the Chief Executive Officer of Watt Capital Partners, a spin-off of Watt Companies Inc., since June 2022. Ms. Watt has served on the board of directors and as the chair of the compensation committee of Fisker Inc., an electric vehicle company, since October 2020 and prior to this served as a director of the legacy company of Fisker Inc. since June 2020. In addition, Ms. Watt previously served as the Chair of the Los Angeles Business Council until 2022.

Mr. Eisner is the controlling owner and managing partner of Eisner, LLP, a full-service business law firm, specializing in various areas of law including real estate, finance and corporate law, that Mr. Eisner founded in 1999.

In connection with Ms. Watt and Mr. Eisner’s election to the Board and in accordance with the Company’s non-employee director compensation policies, the Board approved an annual retainer fee of $150,000 to both Ms. Watt and Mr. Eisner in connection with their service as a non-employee director.
