ITEM 5.03. AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.
On February 22, 2017, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”). The Amended and Restated Bylaws, which became effective immediately upon the Board’s approval, implement a majority voting standard in uncontested director elections, such that a nominee for election as a director in an uncontested election will be elected to the Board if the votes cast “for” such nominee’s election exceed the votes cast “against” such nominee’s election (with “abstentions” and “broker non-votes” not counted as a vote cast either “for” or “against” that nominee’s election). A plurality voting standard remains applicable to any director election in which the number of nominees for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
