Kennedy-Wilson, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
(unaudited)

NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles used in the preparation of the Company’s annual financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 have been made.  The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily indicative of results that might be expected for the full year.  The interim statements are condensed and do not include some of the information necessary for a more complete understanding of the financial data.  Accordingly, your attention is directed to the footnote disclosures found in the Company’s 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated joint ventures.  All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.  Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the consolidated balance sheet, while income statement items are translated at average rates of exchange for the year.

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

RECLASSIFICATION - Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

REVENUE RECOGNITION - The Company’s real estate services revenues are generally recorded when the related services are performed or at closing in the case of real estate sales commissions.  Property management fees are recognized over time as earned based upon the terms of the management agreement.

Leasing commission revenues are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SAB 101.  Accordingly, leasing commissions that are payable upon tenant occupancy, payment of rent or other events beyond the Company’s control are recognized upon the occurrence of such events.  In accordance with EITF 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent, the Company records brokerage commission revenues and expenses on a gross basis.  Of the criteria listed in the EITF, the Company is the primary obligor in the transaction, does not have inventory risk, performs all, or part, of the service, has credit risk, and has wide latitude in establishing the price

Table of Contents

of services rendered, discretion in selection of agents and determination of service specifications.  Due to these factors, gross reporting is appropriate.

Revenues on notes receivable are recognized as follows: The Company accounts for performing discounted loan portfolios that it began acquiring in 2001 on an effective interest basis under the provisions of Practice Bulletin 6.  Through 1999, the Company acquired pools of claims, judgements, and other defaulted credit transactions.  Revenues on these assets are accounted for as follows: Cash payments on defaulted notes are applied to the cost basis until fully recovered before any revenue is recognized.  When claims and judgements purchased are subsequently structured into performing collateralized notes, the difference between the cost basis of the asset and the fair value of the resulting note is accreted into interest and other income over the life of the note.

INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES - The Company has a number of partnership and joint venture interests ranging from 2% to 50% that were formed to acquire, manage, develop and/or sell real estate.  These investments are accounted for under the equity method.

The Company reviews each of its investments on a periodic basis for evidence of impairment.  Impairment losses are recognized whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate declines in value of an investment below its carrying value and the related undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the asset’s carrying amount.  No impairment losses were recorded by the Company in the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002.

GOODWILL - Goodwill is reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, and more frequently if there is a triggering event, by Company management in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”).

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less.

RESTRICTED CASH - Restricted cash consists of nonrefundable deposits on acquisitions of real estate, marketing funds advanced by clients and reserve accounts required in connection with real estate related loans.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS - Long-lived assets and assets held for sale are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred.  No impairment loss was

Table of Contents

recorded in either of the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002.

NOTES RECEIVABLE - The Company accounts for any impairment to our basis in notes receivable in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures.  Accordingly, impaired loans are measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loans’ effective interest rate or, if readily determinable, the loans’ observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

CAPITALIZED INTEREST - The Company capitalizes interest in accordance with FAS 58 for qualifying equity investments.  Interest is capitalized on investment assets that are undergoing construction or entitlement activities in preparation for their planned principal operations.  An appropriate interest rate is applied to the Company’s cash investment in the qualifying asset.  The interest is credited against interest expense and added to the basis in the investment.  Interest is capitalized when the development or entitlement activity commences and ceases when the investment has begun its planned principal operations or development is halted for any reason. 

EARNINGS PER SHARE - Basic earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented.  Shares of restricted stock are included in the computation only after the shares become vested.  Diluted earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented.  The diluted earnings per share computation also includes the dilutive impact of options and warrants to purchase common stock which were outstanding during the period calculated by the “treasury stock” method, unvested restricted stock grants and the assumed conversion of the Company’s convertible subordinated debt in 2002 as if conversion to common shares had occurred at the beginning of the year.  Earnings have also been adjusted for interest expense on the convertible subordinated debt in 2002.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (“SFAS 146”).  SFAS 146, which is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred.  The Company’s adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34 (“FIN 45”).  FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the entity must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee.  FIN 45 requires disclosure about each guarantee even if the likelihood of the

guarantor’s having to make any payments under the guarantee is remote.  The provisions for initial recognition and measurement are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees that are issued or modified after December 31, 2002.  The Company has certain guarantees associated with loans secured by assets held in various joint venture partnerships.  The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) the Company could be required to make under the guarantees is approximately $35 million.  The guarantees expire through 2005 and the Company’s performance under the guarantees would be required to the extent there is a shortfall in liquidation between the principal amount of the loan and the net sales proceeds of the property.  In one joint venture partnership, the entire loan of approximately $9 million is collateralized by the property and the Company indemnifies the lender under certain conditions such as fraud or bankruptcy.  The Company also has a leasing guarantee agreement which expires in 2009.  The maximum amount that the Company could be responsible for under the guarantee is approximately $2.6 million. During the three month period ended March 31, 2003, the Company issued no new guarantees to unconsolidated entities.

In December 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB 51 (“FIN 46”).  The primary objectives of FIN 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (variable interest entities, or VIEs) and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the primary beneficiary).  The provisions of FIN 46 are effective immediately for VIEs created after January 31, 2003 and no later than July 1, 2003 for VIEs created before February 1, 2003.  In addition, FIN 46 requires that both the primary beneficiary and all other enterprises with a significant variable interest make additional disclosure in financial statements issued after January 31, 2003.  We expect a certain previously unconsolidated special purpose entity to be consolidated under the provisions of this interpretation.  The special purpose entity which is expected to be consolidated under the provisions of FIN 46 comprises $1,504,000 of the Company’s total $47,959,000 investments in joint ventures as of March 31, 2003.  This investment is engaged in the development, operation and ultimate disposition of four office and industrial properties located in San Antonio, Texas.  The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement is limited to its capital investment.

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company entered into a joint venture investment that is consolidated (see Notes 5, 8 and 9). The consolidation of this entity had no impact on the Company's net income.

STOCK-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION - Stock-based employee compensation is accounted for using the intrinsic value method allowed under APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.  No stock-based employee compensation expense is reflected in net income for options granted under the Company’s stock options plans, as options granted under the plans have exercise prices equal to the market value of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant.  Restricted stock grants are valued at the market value of the stock on the date of the grant. This amount is recorded as deferred compensation and is amortized over the vesting period of the grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share if the Company had applied the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation to stock-based employee compensation.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENT IN KENNEDY-WILSON JAPAN

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company sold 5,000 shares (as adjusted for a 2-for-1 stock split) of its investment in Kennedy-Wilson Japan at per share prices ranging from approximately $1,210 to $1,260 for total gross cash consideration of approximately $6.3 million.  After the share sales, the Company’s ownership of Kennedy-Wilson Japan was 29.5%. During the first quarter of 2003, the Company's equity in earnings of Kennedy-Wilson Japan was $440,000, which is included in equity income in the consolidated statements of income.

NOTE 4 - NOTES RECEIVABLE

Notes receivable consists primarily of discounted loan portfolios and other related assets acquired from financial institutions, and notes resulting from the sale of assets to third parties or joint ventures.  A majority of these notes are collateralized by real estate, personal property or guarantees.

NOTE 5 - REAL ESTATE

In March 2003, the Company invested in a joint venture that is being consolidated and the joint venture partner's contribution accounted for as financing (see Note 8). The joint venture purchased an apartment project and the acquisition price of approximately $16.7 million is recorded as real estate.

NOTE 6- INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES

The Company has a number of partnership and joint venture interests ranging from 2% to 50% that were formed to acquire, manage, develop and/or sell real estate. As of March 31, 2003, the Company also had an investment in one special purpose entity in which it had a 97% ownership interest.  Under the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, we expect to consolidate this entity, but do not expect it to materially impact our financial position and to have no impact on net income. During the first quarter of 2003, the Company's equity in earnings of joint ventures was $127,000 and is included in equity income in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

NOTE 7 - NOTES PAYABLE

Notes payable were incurred primarily in connection with the acquisition of discounted loan portfolios, redemption of a joint venture investment partner, and in connection with a stock repurchase discussed in note 11.

NOTE 8 - JOINT VENTURE FINANCING

As described in Note 5, in March 2003 the Company invested in a joint venture that acquired an apartment project. The joint venture partner's contribution is accounted for as mezzanine financing in the amount of approximately $5.6 million which bears a preferred return at a rate of 17% per annum, compounded monthly until sale of the property or 36 months, whichever is sooner.

NOTE 9 - MORTGAGE LOANS PAYABLE

As described in Notes 5 and 8, in March 2003 the Company invested in a joint venture that acquired an apartment project. The joint venture assumed a loan with the remaining principal balance of approximately $9.3 million that bears interest at the rate of 6.96% per annum. The note requires monthly payments of principal and interest and matures in 2011. The joint venture also obtained a second mortgage in the amount of $1.9 million that bears interest at the rate of 6.20% per annum. The mortgage requires monthly payments of principal and interest and matures in 2013. These mortgages are secured by the property.

NOTE 10 - SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Pacific Western National Bank in the principal amount of $5 million.  The loan bears interest at the Bank’s base rate plus 1%, payable monthly, which was 5.25% at March 31, 2003.  The loan matures in 2006.  The principal repayments under this loan for the years 2004, 2005 and 2006 are $1,667,000, $1,667,000 and $1,666,000, respectively.

The $5 million of borrowings discussed above were used to repay a portion of the outstanding balance of the 12% Senior Notes (the “notes”).  One half of the remaining warrants that were originally issued with the notes were re-priced to the fair market value of the Company’s shares at the date of the repayment, or $3.72 per share.

NOTE 11 - CAPITAL STOCK TRANSACTIONS

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company purchased 749,000 shares of its common stock.  The total consideration of the share purchase was $3,745,000.  The seller of the shares received cash of $1 million and a note payable for the balance of the purchase price, payable in equal quarterly installments through March 2004.  The Company also acquired 189,600 of common shares under its previously announced stock buy back program.

Item 2.      MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

We are an integrated real estate services and investment Company with headquarters in Beverly Hills, California.  Through our subsidiaries, we provide a complementary array of real estate services, including fund management, property management and leasing, real estate brokerage services including auction marketing, and asset management.  We also invest in commercial and residential real estate and discounted loan portfolios.  Our investments in real estate are made primarily through joint venture funds. 

In 2002, the Company completed two public stock offerings and two private sales of shares of its formerly wholly-owned subsidiary, Kennedy-Wilson Japan.  The sale of stock reduced the Company’s ownership in the Japan subsidiary to 37% at December 31, 2002. This change in ownership necessitated a change in the accounting treatment for Kennedy-Wilson Japan from a consolidated entity to an equity investment beginning in the fourth quarter of 2002.  Instead of including the various components of Kennedy-Wilson Japan’s revenue and expenses in the individual revenue and expense categories on the income statement, the Company’s share of the net income of the Japan subsidiary is included in equity income.  Likewise, on the balance sheet the Company’s investment in Kennedy-Wilson Japan is shown as a single separate line item. Subsequent sales of shares in 2003 have reduced the Company ownership to 29.5% at March 31, 2003. 

Our current real estate investment strategy favors joint venture investments; however, in the future, we may still acquire and sell commercial real estate on a wholly owned basis.  We are no longer involved in single-family residential development and sales but are investing, through joint venture partnerships, in multi-family apartment projects.  We also invest in discounted loan portfolios secured primarily by real estate on our own account and through joint venture partnerships.  The discounted asset portfolios acquired prior to 2001 consisted primarily of claims, judgements and guarantees.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 AND 2002

Total operating revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was approximately $6 million compared to approximately $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 due to a decrease in property management and commission revenue.  The decrease was due, in part, because the revenue generated from the Japan subsidiary during the first quarter of 2002 was being recorded in the property management and commissions categories but, as previously discussed, is now being accounted for under equity income.  Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2003 decreased 34% to approximately $8 million compared to approximately $12.1 million for the same period in 2002.  This decrease in expenses was also due, in part, to the change in accounting for the Kennedy-Wilson Japan subsidiary from consolidation to the equity method.  Net income for the first quarter of 2003 and 2002 was $746,000 and $4.0 million respectively.

15


Table of Contents

REVENUE

Property management and leasing operations generated approximately $4.7 million of revenue (including related party fees of $1.0 million), in the first quarter of 2003, representing 78% of our total revenue, compared to approximately $6.7 million (including related party fees of $894,000), and 66% of total revenue for the same period in 2002.  The Japan subsidiary, which is now being accounted for as an equity method investment, contributed approximately $687,000 of property management related fees in the first quarter of 2002.  During the first quarter of 2003, property management revenue in the U.S., which includes property management and leasing revenue, asset management, construction management, and engineering services, declined 22% compared to the first quarter of 2002.  The decline in revenue was due, in part, to the decrease in the total square footage of properties under management.  Lower interest rates and favorable loan terms during 2002 resulted in a number of sales of buildings managed by the Company.  Leasing commission revenue, construction management and development fees, and engineering services have similarly declined as a result the building sales and were also effected by the overall downturn in the economy.

Brokerage commission revenue for the first quarter of 2003 was $783,000 (including related party fees of $139,000), representing 13% of total revenue compared to approximately $2.9 million (including related party fees of $215,000) and 29% of total revenue for the first quarter of 2002.  The Japan subsidiary, which is now being accounted for as an equity investment, contributed approximately $1.7 million of brokerage commissions in the first quarter of 2002.

Interest and other income totaled $532,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $487,000 for the same period in 2002. 

OPERATING EXPENSES

As discussed above, the Company’s formerly wholly-owned subsidiary, Kennedy-Wilson Japan, was consolidated through September 2002.  Subsequent to September 2002, the investment is accounted for on the equity method.  Therefore, operating expenses for 2003 do not include activity on a consolidated basis compared to the consolidated activity of Kennedy-Wilson Japan included for the first three quarters of 2002.

Brokerage commissions and marketing expenses were $879,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to approximately $1.1 million for the same period in 2002. The decline relates to the decline in US brokerage commission revenue discussed above.

Compensation and related expenses were approximately $4.3 million for the first quarter of 2003, a decrease of 27% when compared to approximately $5.9 million for the first quarter of 2002.  The decrease relates, in part, to the effect of the deconsolidation of our Japan subsidiary; however, there was also a substantial decline of approximately 18% in compensation related expense in the U.S.  This was substantially due to reductions in our Texas offices.

General and administrative expenses were approximately $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2003, a decrease of 33% when compared to the same

16


Table of Contents

period in 2002 expenses of approximately $3.1 million.  In addition to the effect of the deconsolidation of our Japan subsidiary, there was a decrease of approximately 14% in expenses related to the U.S. operations, due to the Company's continuing cost reduction measures.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $694,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, a decrease of 21% when compared to $880,000 for the same period of 2002.  The change results from assets becoming fully depreciated since the first quarter of 2002 without significant additions of new depreciable assets during the same period.

There were no non-recurring, non-cash Japan IPO expenses in the first quarter of 2003, compared to $1.1 million in the same period of 2002.  The expenses in 2002 related to the successful initial public offering of the shares of the Company’s Japan subsidiary.

Equity income totaled $567,000 for the first quarter in 2003, compared to $594,000 realized in the first quarter of 2002.  The decrease was due to the deconsolidation of our Japan subsidiary and the sale of the Company’s interest in a ski resort during 2002 which had generated substantial income during the first quarter of 2002. During the first quarter of 2003, none of the joint ventures completed significant property sale transactions.

Equity income for the first three months of 2003 included $440,000 from the Company's investment in Kennedy-Wilson Japan.  As discussed above, the Company’s Japan subsidiary is accounted for under the equity method subsequent to September 2002.

NON-OPERATING ITEMS

Gain on sale of stock of subsidiary was approximately $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2003, compared to a gain of approximately $8.8 million in the same period of 2002.  The gain in the first quarter of 2003 resulted from the sale of 5,000 shares owned in Kennedy-Wilson Japan at an average price of approximately $1,255 per share, compared to the 5,000 shares (adjusted for a 2-for-1 stock spilt) sold by the Company at a split-adjusted price of approximately $1,660 as part of the initial public offering, plus the related gain on sale of minority interest, during the first quarter of 2002.

Interest expense was $506,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $533,000 during the same period in 2002.

The change in the fair value of warrants resulted in a benefit of $35,000 in the first quarter of 2003 compared to an expense of $480,000 during the same period in 2002.  The change represents a decrease in the value of certain warrants issued in connection with the 12% senior unsecured notes and a reduction in the liability related to the warrants.

Loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $454,000 related primarily to prepayment penalties and write-off of unamortized capitalized loan fees associated with the early retirement of a portion of the 12% senior notes payable.

The provision for income taxes was $464,000 for the first quarter in 2003, compared to approximately $2.2 million for the same period in 2002.  The higher provision in 2002 related to the larger gain for the sale of the Japan subsidiary’s shares in 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity and capital resource requirements include expenditures for joint venture fund investments, distressed note pools, real estate, and working capital needs.  Historically, we have not required significant capital resources to support our brokerage operations.  We finance our operations with internally generated funds and borrowings under our revolving lines of credit as described below.  Our recent acquisitions of note pools are financed with notes payable.

Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2003 was approximately $2.6 million, compared to approximately $1.6 million in cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2002.  The change is a result of a decrease in net income from the operating units as a result of the decreased volume as previously discussed.

Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2003 was approximately $10.7 million, compared to approximately $16.2 million in cash provided by investing activities during the same period in 2002.  The change resulted primarily from the acquisition of note pools and real estate in 2003 compared to the proceeds from the sale of shares in Kennedy-Wilson Japan in 2002 which provided $18 million in cash compared to $6.3 million in cash from sales of stock in 2003.

Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $7.9 million for the first three months of 2003, compared to approximately $3.8 million in cash used by financing activities for the same period of 2002.  The change resulted from borrowings used for the acquisition of note pools and real estate, offset by repayment of lines of credit and repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock in the first quarter of 2003 compared to debt repayment for the same period in 2002.

To the extent that we engage in additional strategic investments, we may need to obtain third party financing which could include bank financing or the public sale or private placement of debt or equity securities.  We believe that existing cash, plus capital generated from property management and leasing, brokerage, sales of real estate owned, collections from notes receivable, as well as our current unsecured lines of credit, will provide us with sufficient capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

Our need, if any, to raise additional funds to meet our working capital and capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the success and pace of the implementation of our strategy for growth.  We regularly monitor capital raising alternatives to be able to take advantage of other available avenues to support our working capital and investment needs, including strategic partnerships and other alliances, bank borrowings, and the sale of equity or debt securities.  We intend to retain earnings to finance our growth and, therefore, do not anticipate paying any dividends.

Lender may require Borrower to post adequate security or a surety bond, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, to protect Lender's interest. Inspection. Permit employees or agents of Lender at any reasonable time to inspect any and all Collateral for the Loan or Loans and Borrower's other properties and to examine or audit Borrower's books, accounts, and records and to make copies and memoranda of Borrower's books, accounts, and records.

Compliance Certificates. Unless waived in writing by Lender, provide Lender at least annually, with a certificate executed by Borrower's chief financial officer, or other officer or person acceptable to Lender, certifying that the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are true and correct as of the date of the certificate and further certifying that, as of the date of the certificate, no Event of Default exists under this Agreement. Environmental Compliance and Reports. Borrower shall comply in all respects with any and all Environmental Laws; not cause or permit to exist, as a result of an intentional or unintentional action or omission on Borrower's part or on the part of any third party, on property owned and/or occupied by Borrower, any environmental activity where damage may result to the environment, unless such environmental activity is pursuant to and in compliance with the conditions of a permit issued by the appropriate federal, state or local governmental authorities; shall furnish to Lender promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof a copy of any notice, summons, lien, citation, directive, letter or other communication from any governmental agency or instrumentality concerning any intentional or unintentional action or omission on Borrower's part in connection with any environmental activity whether or not there is damage to the environment and/or other natural resources.

LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect Lender's interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including but not limited to Borrower's failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related Documents, Lender on Borrower's behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and other claims, at any time levied or placed on any Collateral and paying all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving any Collateral. All such expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by Lender to the date of repayment by Borrower. All such expenses will become a part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A) be payable on demand; (B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note's maturity. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that while this Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender: Indebtedness and Liens.

However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option, all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.

No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right.

If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal, valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required by law, the illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

Principal Amount: $5,000,000.00 Date of Note: January 27, 2003 PROMISE TO PAY. Kennedy-Wilson, Inc. ("Borrower") promises to pay to Pacific Western National Bank ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Five Million & 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance from January 27, 2003, until paid in full. PAYMENT. Subject to any payment changes resulting from changes in the Index, Borrower will pay this loan on demand. Payment in full is due immediately upon Lender's demand. If no demand is made, Borrower will pay this loan in accordance with the following payment schedule: 35 monthly consecutive interest payments, beginning February 25, 2003, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an interest rate based on the Pacific Western National Bank Base Rate (currently 4.250%), plus a margin of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate of 5.250%; 2 annual consecutive principal payments of $1,666,667.00 each, beginning January 27, 2004, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an interest rate based on the Pacific Western National Bank Base Rate (currently 4.250%), plus a margin of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate of 5.250%; and one principal and interest payment of $1,674,686.83 on January 27, 2006, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an interest rate based on the Pacific Western National Bank Base Rate (currently 4.250%), plus a margin of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate of 5.250%. This estimated final payment is based on the assumption that all payments will be made exactly as scheduled and that the Index does not change; the actual final payment will be for all principal and accrued interest not yet paid, together with any other unpaid amounts under this Note. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to accrued unpaid interest, then to principal, and any remaining amount to any unpaid collection costs and late charges. The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an index which is the Pacific Western National Bank Base Rate (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans and is set by Lender in its sole discretion. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after notifying Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 4.250%. The interest rate or rates to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be the rate or rates set forth herein in the "Payment" section. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, after the first payment stream, the interest rate for each subsequent payment stream will be effective as of the last payment date of the just-ending payment stream. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Whenever increases occur in the interest rate, Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the following: (A) increase Borrower's payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its original final maturity date, (B) increase Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest, (C) increase the number of Borrower's payments, and (D) continue Borrower's payments at the same amount and increase Borrower's final payment. PREPAYMENT; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. In any event, even upon full prepayment of this Note, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a minimum interest charge of $100.00. Other than Borrower's obligation to pay any minimum interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Borrower's making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: Pacific Western National Bank, Beverly Hills Office, 9454 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, CA 90212. LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the regularly scheduled payment or $10.00, whichever is greater. INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon Borrower's failure to pay all amounts declared due pursuant to this section, including failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may, if permitted under applicable law, increase the variable interest rate on this Note by 5.000 percentage points. DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default") under this Note: Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this Note. Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the related documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.

Change In Ownership. Any change in ownership of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common stock of Borrower. Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of this Note is impaired. Cure Provisions. If any default, other than a default in payment is curable and if Borrower has not been given a notice of a breach of the same provision of this Note within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured (and no event of default will have occurred) if Borrower, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default: (1) cures the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical. LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal balance on this Note and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, and then Borrower will pay that amount. ATTORNEYS' FEES; EXPENSES. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help collect this Note if Borrower does not pay. Borrower will pay Lender that amount.
