 This TRANSFER AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) is entered into as of December 28, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), by and between KW Executive Loan Partners I LLC, as transferor (the “Transferor”) and K-W Properties, as transferee

 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, the Transferor currently holds a
membership interest in the Company represented by a Percentage Interest in the Company equal to 5.328% of the Company’s aggregate Percentage Interests as of the Effective Date (together with the Capital Account and all of the rights,
obligations and liabilities associated therewith, the “Transferred Interest”); and 
 WHEREAS, the
Transferor desires to transfer and assign to the Transferee, and the Transferee desires to accept and assume from the Transferor, the Transferred Interest on the terms and conditions set forth herein. 

AGREEMENT 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Transfer from the Transferor to the Transferee. 

With the consent of the Manager pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Company Operating Agreement, the Transferor hereby assigns, delivers,
transfers and sets over to the Transferee, and the Transferee hereby accepts and assumes from the Transferor, the Transferred Interest as of the Effective Date. In consideration for the Transferred Interest, the Transferee shall pay to the
Transferor the same amount, and payable at the same times, as if the Transferor had retained its interest, provided, however, that such payment does not violate any terms of the Indenture, dated as of April 5. 2011, by and among
Kennedy-Wilson, Inc., the Guarantors party thereto, and Wilmington Trust FSB, as trustee. The parties do not intend to, and this Agreement shall not, create a partnership. 
 Section 2. Representations and Warranties of the Transferor. 

The Transferor represents and warrants to the Transferee as follows: 

(a) The Transferred Interest is lawfully owned by the Transferor, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and claims of others, and the
transfer and assignment of the Transferred Interest to the Transferee will not result in the imposition or creation of any lien, encumbrance or claim of another upon any portion of the Transferred Interest. 

(b) The Transferor has the requisite legal right, power and authority to transfer and assign the Transferred Interest.
