FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus contain certain “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and includes this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe the Company’s future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond the Company’s control and which could materially affect actual results, performances or achievements. Factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, those listed under the caption “Risk Factors” in the accompanying prospectus and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as the following factors: (i) general economic and local real estate conditions, (ii) the inability of major tenants to continue paying their rent obligations due to bankruptcy, insolvency or general downturn in their business, (iii) financing risks, such as the inability to obtain equity, debt, or other sources of financing on favorable terms, (iv) changes in governmental laws and regulations, (v) the level and volatility of interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, (vi) the availability of suitable acquisition opportunities and (vii) increases in operating costs. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the Company’s expectations will be realized.

We caution readers that any such statements are based on currently available operational, financial and competitive information, and they should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s opinion only as of the date on which they were made. Except as required by law, we disclaim any obligation to review or update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances as they occur.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should carefully read this entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and in the accompanying prospectus, before making an investment decision to purchase our common stock.

Kimco Realty Corporation

Kimco Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, is one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of neighborhood and community shopping centers. As of June 30, 2008, we had interests in 1,928 properties, totaling approximately 180.0 million square feet of gross leaseable area (“GLA”) located in 45 states, Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, and Peru.  Our ownership interests in real estate consist of our consolidated portfolio and in portfolios where we own an economic interest, such as properties in our investment management programs, where we partner with institutional investors and also retain management responsibilities. We believe our portfolio of neighborhood and community shopping center properties is the largest (measured by GLA) currently held by any publicly-traded REIT.

We believe that we have operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in such a manner to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Our executive officers are engaged in the day-to-day management and operation of our real estate exclusively, and we administer nearly all operating functions for our properties, including leasing, legal, construction, data processing, maintenance, finance and accounting.

In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our net taxable income, excluding capital gains, each year. Dividends on any preferred stock issued by us are included as distributions for this purpose. Historically, our distributions have exceeded, and we expect that our distributions will continue to exceed, our net taxable income each year. A portion of such distributions may constitute a return of capital. As a result of the foregoing, our consolidated net worth may decline. We, however, do not believe that consolidated stockholders’ equity is a meaningful reflection of net real estate values.

Our executive offices are located at 3333 New Hyde Park Road, New Hyde Park, New York 11042-0020, and our telephone number is (516) 869-9000.

The Offering

The number of shares of common stock to be outstanding after this offering is based upon 254,657,923 shares outstanding as of September 5, 2008. This number excludes shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options. Further, we have outstanding units that are convertible into common stock. If all such units were to be converted, we would issue 6,101,367 shares using September 5, 2008 as the valuation date.

For additional information regarding our common stock, see “Description of Common Stock” in accompanying prospectus.

Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock involves risks. Please read the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 5 of the accompanying prospectus and “Risk Factors” beginning on page 13 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

S-2

Summary Consolidated and Other Financial Data

The summary consolidated and other financial data at each of the dates and for each of the periods presented below were derived from our audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements, which, except for the interim financial information as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. Because the information in this table is only a summary and does not provide all of the information contained in our financial statements, including the related notes, you should read “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008, all of which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

The Company believes that the book value of its real estate assets, which reflects the historical costs of such real estate assets less accumulated depreciation, is not indicative of the current market value of such assets. Historical operating results are not necessarily indicative of future operating performance.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $           million, or approximately $           million if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full. We expect to use the net proceeds received from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include funding property acquisitions and development costs, including our developments in Mexico, investments in our institutional management programs and other investment activities as suitable opportunities arise. Pending such use, we will partially repay the $800.0 million outstanding under our U.S. revolving credit facility, which is scheduled to mature in October 2011 and accrues interest at LIBOR plus 0.375% per annum. Affiliates of certain of the underwriters are lenders under our U.S. revolving credit facility and will receive their pro rata share of repayments thereunder. See “Underwriting.”

Dividends are paid to common stockholders at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our earnings, funds from operations, financial condition, liquidity, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under our indebtedness and preferred stock, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, state law and such other factors as our Board of Directors deems relevant. Our preferred stock and debt instruments and agreements limit payment of dividends to holders of our common stock under certain circumstances. See “Description of Debt Securities—Certain Covenants—Restrictions on Dividends and Other Distributions” and “Description of Preferred Stock—Dividends” in the accompanying prospectus.

SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a general summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences to you of acquiring, owning and disposing of our common stock. This summary is a supplement to, and should be read in connection with, the accompanying prospectus (including the discussion in such prospectus under the heading “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations to Us of our REIT Election”). This summary is for general information only and is not tax advice.

The information in this summary is based on current law, including:

·   the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code;

·   current, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code;

·   the legislative history of the Code;

·   current administrative interpretations and practices of the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS; and

·   court decisions,

in each case, as of the date of this prospectus supplement. In addition, the administrative interpretations and practices of the IRS include its practices and policies as expressed in private letter rulings that are not binding on the IRS except with respect to the particular taxpayers who requested and received those rulings. Future legislation, Treasury regulations, administrative interpretations and practices and/or court decisions may adversely affect the tax considerations contained in this discussion. Any such change could apply retroactively to transactions preceding the date of the change.

We have not requested and do not intend to request a ruling from the IRS that we qualify as a REIT, and the statements in this discussion are not binding on the IRS or any court. Thus, we can provide no assurance that the tax considerations contained in this summary will not be challenged by the IRS or will be sustained by a court if so challenged. This summary does not discuss any state, local or foreign tax consequences, or any United States federal alternative minimum tax consequences, associated with our election to be taxed as a REIT or the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common stock.

You are urged to consult the accompanying prospectus and your tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences to you of:

·   the acquisition, ownership, and/or sale or other disposition of the common stock offered under this prospectus supplement, including the federal, state, local, foreign and other tax consequences;

·   our election to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes; and

·   potential changes in the applicable tax laws.

This summary deals only with our common stock held as a “capital asset” which is generally, property held for investment within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. Your tax treatment will vary depending on your particular situation, and this discussion does not address all the tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances. State, local and foreign income tax laws may differ substantially from the federal income tax laws discussed below, and this summary does not purport to describe any aspect of the tax laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction. In addition, this discussion does not address the tax consequences relevant to persons who receive special treatment under the United States federal income tax law, except to the extent discussed below under the headings “— Taxation of Tax-Exempt Stockholders” and “— Taxation of Non-U.S. Stockholders.” Holders of our common stock receiving special treatment include, without limitation:

·   financial institutions, banks and thrifts;

·   insurance companies;

·   tax-exempt organizations;

·   “S” corporations;

S-6

·   traders in securities that elect to mark to market;

·   persons holding our common stock through a partnership or other pass-through entity;

·   regulated investment companies and REITs;

·   foreign corporations or partnerships, and persons who are not residents or citizens of the United States;

·   broker-dealers or dealers in securities or currencies;

·   United States expatriates;

·   persons holding our common stock as a hedge against currency risks or as a position in a straddle; or

·   United States persons whose functional currency is not the United States dollar.

New Legislation

On July 30, 2008, the American Housing Rescue and Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2008 (the “Housing Act”) was enacted.  The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the Housing Act:

·   Prior to the Housing Act, foreign currency exchange gain was not explicitly included or excluded from the statutory definitions of qualifying income for purposes of the 95% and 75% income tests. The Housing Act provides that most real estate-related foreign currency gain recognized after July 30, 2008 is excluded from the computation of the income tests (i.e., such gain is excluded from the numerator and the denominator of the income test computations).  However, foreign currency gain is treated as non-qualifying income if it is derived from substantial and regular trading or dealing in securities.  These rules depart from previously issued IRS guidance that generally treated foreign currency gains as qualifying income under the 95% and 75% income tests to the extent such gains were attributable to assets producing qualifying income.  Certain conforming changes have also been made to the asset tests, foreclosure property and prohibited transaction provisions of the Code. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations to Us of Our REIT Election—Income Tests,” “—Prohibited Transaction Income” and “—Asset Tests” in the accompanying prospectus.

·   The Housing Act expands the scope of the hedging exception by providing that the income tests will exclude any income from a hedging transaction entered into by the REIT after July 30, 2008 primarily to manage the risk of (1) interest rate changes with respect to borrowings made or to be made to acquire or carry real estate assets or (2) currency fluctuations with respect to an item of qualifying income under the 95% or 75% income test.  Prior to this amendment, income from a hedging transaction was treated as nonqualifying income for purposes of the 75% income test, and the income from hedging transactions described under number (1) above was only excluded from the 95% income test.  See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations to Us of Our REIT Election—Income Tests” in the accompanying prospectus.

·   Under prior law, sales of property by a REIT were not treated as prohibited transactions if such sales came within certain safe harbors. Certain provisions of the Housing Act make it easier for a REIT to fit within these safe harbor provisions, including a reduction in the current four year safe harbor holding period to two years for sales occurring after July 30, 2008. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations to Us of Our REIT Election—Prohibited Transaction Income” in the accompanying prospectus.

·   Previously, not more than 20% of a REIT’s total assets could be represented by securities of one or more of the REIT’s taxable REIT subsidiaries.  The Housing Act amends this rule by increasing the limitation to 25%.  This change is effective for our taxable years beginning after December 31, 2008. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations to Us of Our REIT Election—Asset Tests” in the accompanying prospectus.

The foregoing is not an exhaustive list of changes made by the Housing Act.  You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences to you of the changes resulting from the enactment of Housing Act.

S-7

Taxable U.S. Stockholders Generally

If you are a “U.S. stockholder,” as defined below, this section applies to you. If you hold shares of our common stock and are not a “U.S. stockholder,” you are a “non-U.S. stockholder” and the section below entitled “Taxation of Non-U.S. Stockholders” applies to you.

Definition of U.S. Stockholder.  A “U.S. stockholder” is a beneficial holder of capital stock who is:

·   a citizen or resident of the United States;

·   a corporation, including an entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any state or in the District of Columbia;

·   an estate which is required to pay United States federal income tax regardless of the source of its income; or

·   a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or if the trust has a valid election in place to be treated as a United States person.

If a partnership or other flow-through entity is the owner of our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership or an owner of the entity will depend upon the status of the partner or other owner and the activities of the partnership or other entity. Accordingly, partnerships and flow-through entities that hold our common stock and partners or owners of such partnerships or entities, as applicable, are encouraged to consult their tax advisors.

Distributions Generally.  Distributions out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as dividends, and other than with respect to capital gain dividends and certain amounts that have previously been subject to corporate level tax, discussed below, will be taxable to our taxable U.S. stockholders as ordinary income. See “— Tax Rates” below. As long as we qualify as a REIT, these distributions will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction in the case of U.S. stockholders that are corporations. For purposes of determining whether distributions to holders of our common stock are out of current or accumulated earnings and profits, our earnings and profits will be allocated first to distributions on our outstanding preferred stock, and then to distributions on our outstanding common stock.

To the extent that we make distributions on our common stock in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, these distributions will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to a U.S. stockholder. This treatment will reduce the U.S. stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of our common stock by the amount of the distribution, but not below zero. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits and in excess of a U.S. stockholder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares will be taxable as capital gains. Such gain will be taxable as long-term capital gain if the shares have been held for more than one year. Dividends we declare in October, November, or December of any year and which are payable to a stockholder of record on a specified date in any of these months will be treated as both paid by us and received by the stockholder on December 31 of that year, provided we actually pay the dividend on or before January 31 of the following year. U.S. stockholders may not include in their own income tax returns any of our net operating losses or capital losses.

Capital Gain Dividends.  Dividends that we properly designate as capital gain dividends will be taxable to our taxable U.S. stockholders as a gain from the sale or disposition of a capital asset to the extent that such gain does not exceed our actual net capital gain for the taxable year. These gains may be taxable to non-corporate U.S. stockholders at a 15% or 25% rate. U.S. stockholders that are corporations may, however, be required to treat up to 20% of some capital gain dividends as ordinary income. If we properly designate any portion of a dividend as a capital gain dividend then, except as otherwise required by law, we presently intend to allocate a portion of the total capital gain dividends paid or made available to holders of all classes of our stock for the year to the holders of our common stock in proportion to the amount that our total dividends, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes, paid or made available to the holders of such common stock for the year bears to the total dividends, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes, paid or made available to holders of all classes of our stock for the year.

S-8

Retention of Net Capital Gains.  We may elect to retain, rather than distribute as a capital gain dividend, all or a portion of our net capital gains. If we make this election, we would pay tax on our retained net capital gains. In addition, to the extent we so elect, a U.S. stockholder generally would:

·   include its pro rata share of our undistributed net capital gains in computing its long-term capital gains in its return for its taxable year in which the last day of our taxable year falls, subject to certain limitations as to the amount that is includable;

·   be deemed to have paid the capital gains tax imposed on us on the designated amounts included in the U.S. stockholder’s long-term capital gains;

·   receive a credit or refund for the amount of tax deemed paid by it;

·   increase the adjusted basis of its common stock by the difference between the amount of includable gains and the tax deemed to have been paid by it; and

·   in the case of a U.S. stockholder that is a corporation, appropriately adjust its earnings and profits for the retained capital gains in accordance with Treasury regulations to be promulgated by the IRS.

Passive Activity Losses and Investment Interest Limitations.  Distributions we make and gain arising from the sale or exchange by a U.S. stockholder of our shares will not be treated as passive activity income. As a result, U.S. stockholders generally will not be able to apply any “passive losses” against this income or gain. A U.S. stockholder may elect to treat capital gain dividends, capital gains from the disposition of stock and qualified dividend income as investment income for purposes of computing the investment interest limitation, but in such case, the stockholder will be taxed at ordinary income rates on such amount. Other distributions made by us, to the extent they do not constitute a return of capital, generally will be treated as investment income for purposes of computing the investment interest limitation.

Dispositions of Our Common Stock.  If a U.S. stockholder sells or disposes of shares of our common stock to a person other than us, it will recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received on the sale or other disposition and the holder’s adjusted basis in the shares for tax purposes. This gain or loss, except as provided below, will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder has held the common stock for more than one year. If, however, a U.S. stockholder recognizes loss upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock that it has held for six months or less, after applying certain holding period rules, the loss recognized will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent the U.S. stockholder received distributions from us which were required to be treated as long-term capital gains.

Backup Withholding

We report to our U.S. stockholders and the IRS the amount of dividends paid during each calendar year, and the amount of any tax withheld. Under the backup withholding rules, a stockholder may be subject to backup withholding with respect to dividends paid unless the holder is a corporation or comes within certain other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates this fact, or provides a taxpayer identification number, certifies as to no loss of exemption from backup withholding, and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. A U.S. stockholder that does not provide us with its correct taxpayer identification number may also be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amount paid as backup withholding will be creditable against the stockholder’s federal income tax liability. In addition, we may be required to withhold a portion of capital gain distributions to any stockholders who fail to certify their non-foreign status. See “— Taxation of Non-U.S. Stockholders.”

Tax Rates

The maximum tax rate for non-corporate taxpayers for (1) capital gains, including certain “capital gain dividends,” has generally been reduced to 15% (although depending on the characteristics of the assets which produced these gains and on designations which we may make, certain capital gain dividends may be taxed at a 25% rate) and (2) “qualified dividend income” has generally been reduced to 15%. In general, dividends payable by REITs are not eligible for the reduced tax rate on corporate dividends, except to the extent that certain holding requirements have been met and the REIT’s dividends are attributable to dividends received from taxable

corporations (such as its taxable REIT subsidiaries) or to income that was subject to tax at the corporate/REIT level (for example, if it distributed taxable income that it retained and paid tax on in the prior taxable year). The currently applicable provisions of the United States federal income tax laws relating to the 15% tax rate are currently scheduled to “sunset” or revert to the provisions of prior law effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2010, at which time the capital gains tax rate will be increased to 20% and the rate applicable to dividends will be increased to the tax rate then applicable to ordinary income.  U.S. stockholders that are corporations may, however, be required to treat up to 20% of some capital gain dividends as ordinary income.

Taxation of Tax-Exempt Stockholders

Dividend income from us and gain arising upon a sale of our common stock generally will not be unrelated business taxable income to a tax-exempt stockholder, except as described below. Income or gain will be unrelated business taxable income, however, if a tax-exempt stockholder holds its shares as “debt-financed property” within the meaning of the Code or if the shares are used in a trade or business of the tax-exempt stockholder. Generally, “debt-financed property” is property, the acquisition or holding of which is financed through a borrowing by the tax-exempt stockholder.

For tax-exempt stockholders which are social clubs, voluntary employee benefit associations, supplemental unemployment benefit trusts, or qualified group legal services plans exempt from federal income taxation under Sections 501(c)(7), (c)(9), (c)(17) or (c)(20) of the Code, respectively, income from an investment in our shares will constitute unrelated business taxable income unless the organization is able to properly claim a deduction for amounts set aside or placed in reserve for specific purposes so as to offset the income generated by its investment in our shares. These prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning these “set aside” and reserve requirements.

Notwithstanding the above, a portion of the dividends paid by a “pension-held REIT” may be treated as unrelated business taxable income as to certain trusts that hold more than 10%, by value, of the interests in the REIT. A REIT will not be a “pension-held REIT” if it is able to satisfy the “not closely held” requirement without relying on the “look-through” exception with respect to certain trusts or if such REIT is not “predominantly held” by “qualified trusts.” As a result of limitations on the transfer and ownership of stock contained in our charter, we do not expect to be classified as a “pension-held REIT,” and as a result, the tax treatment described in this paragraph should be inapplicable to our stockholders. However, because our stock will be publicly traded, we cannot guarantee that this is or will always be the case.

Taxation of Non-U.S. Stockholders

The following discussion addresses the rules governing United States federal income taxation of the ownership and disposition of our common stock by non-U.S. stockholders. These rules are complex, and no attempt is made herein to provide more than a brief summary. Accordingly, the discussion does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant to a non-U.S. stockholder in light of its particular circumstances and does not address any state, local or foreign tax consequences. We urge non-U.S. stockholders to consult their tax advisors to determine the impact of federal, state, local and foreign income tax laws on the purchase, ownership, and disposition of shares of our common stock, including any reporting requirements.

Distributions Generally.  Distributions that are neither attributable to gain from our sale or exchange of United States real property interests nor designated by us as capital gain dividends will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent they are made out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. Such distributions ordinarily will be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty unless the distributions are treated as effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. stockholder of a United States trade or business. Under certain treaties, however, lower withholding rates generally applicable to dividends do not apply to dividends from a REIT. Certain certification and disclosure requirements must be satisfied in order for distributions to be exempt from withholding under the effectively connected income exemption. Dividends that are treated as effectively connected with such a trade or business will be subject to tax on a net basis at graduated rates, in the same manner as dividends paid to U.S. stockholders, and are generally not subject to withholding. Any such dividends received by a non-U.S. stockholder that is a corporation may also be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

S-10

Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will not be taxable to a non-U.S. stockholder to the extent that such distributions do not exceed the non-U.S. stockholder’s adjusted basis in our common stock, but rather will reduce the adjusted basis of such common stock. To the extent that these distributions exceed a non-U.S. stockholder’s adjusted basis in our common stock, they will give rise to gain from the sale or exchange of such stock. The tax treatment of this gain is described below.

For withholding purposes, we expect to treat all distributions as made out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. Except with respect to certain distributions attributable to the sale of United States real property interests as described below, we expect to withhold United States income tax at the rate of 30% on any distributions made to a non-U.S. stockholder unless:

·   a lower treaty rate applies and the non-U.S. stockholder files with us an IRS Form W-8BEN evidencing eligibility for that reduced treaty rate; or

·   the non-U.S. stockholder files an IRS Form W-8ECI with us claiming that the distribution is income effectively connected with a United States trade or business of the non-U.S. stockholder.

However, amounts withheld should generally be refundable if it is subsequently determined that the distribution was, in fact, in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, provided certain conditions are met.

Capital Gain Dividends and Distributions Attributable to a Sale or Exchange of United States Real Property Interests.  Distributions to a non-U.S. stockholder that we properly designate as capital gain dividends, other than those arising from the disposition of a United States real property interest, generally should not be subject to United States federal income taxation, unless:

(1)   the investment in our common stock is treated as effectively connected with the non-U.S. stockholder’s United States trade or business, in which case the non-U.S. stockholder will be subject to the same treatment as U.S. stockholders with respect to such gain, except that a non-U.S. stockholder that is a foreign corporation may also be subject to the 30% branch profits tax, as discussed above; or

(2)   the non-U.S. stockholder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and certain other conditions are met, in which case the nonresident alien individual will be subject to a 30% tax on the individual’s capital gains.

Pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act, which is referred to as “FIRPTA,” distributions to a non-U.S. stockholder that are attributable to gain from our sale or exchange of United States real property interests (whether or not designated as capital gain dividends) will cause the non-U.S. stockholder to be treated as recognizing such gain as income effectively connected with a United States trade or business. Non-U.S. stockholders would generally be taxed at the same rates applicable to U.S. stockholders, subject to a special alternative minimum tax in the case of nonresident alien individuals. We also will be required to withhold and to remit to the IRS 35% (or 15% to the extent provided in Treasury regulations) of any distribution to non-U.S. stockholders that is designated as a capital gain dividend, or, if greater, 35% (or 15% to the extent provided in Treasury regulations) of a distribution to the non-U.S. stockholders that could have been designated as a capital gain dividend. The amount withheld is creditable against the non-U.S. stockholder’s United States federal income tax liability. However, any distribution with respect to any class of stock which is regularly traded on an established securities market located in the United States is not subject to FIRPTA, and therefore, not subject to the 35% U.S. withholding tax described above, if the non-U.S. stockholder did not own more than 5% of such class of stock at any time during the one-year period ending on the date of the distribution. Instead, such distributions generally will be treated in the same manner as ordinary dividend distributions.

Retention of Net Capital Gains.  Although the law is not clear on the matter, it appears that amounts designated by us as retained capital gains in respect of the common stock held by U.S. stockholders generally should be treated with respect to non-U.S. stockholders in the same manner as actual distributions by us of capital gain dividends. Under this approach, a non-U.S. stockholder would be able to offset as a credit against its United States federal income tax liability resulting from its proportionate share of the tax paid by us on such retained capital gains, and to receive from the IRS a refund to the extent the non-U.S. stockholder’s proportionate share of such tax paid by us exceeds its actual United States federal income tax liability.

S-11

Sale of Our Common Stock.  Gain recognized by a non-U.S. stockholder upon the sale or exchange of our common stock generally will not be subject to United States taxation unless such stock constitutes a “United States real property interest” within the meaning of FIRPTA. Our common stock will not constitute a “United States real property interest” so long as we are a “domestically-controlled qualified investment entity.” A domestically-controlled qualified investment entity includes a REIT if at all times during a specified testing period, less than 50% in value of such REIT’s stock is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. stockholders. We believe, but cannot guarantee, that we have been a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity, and because our capital stock is publicly traded, no assurance can be given that we will continue to be a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, gain from the sale or exchange of our common stock not otherwise subject to FIRPTA will be taxable to a non-U.S. stockholder if either (1) the investment in our common stock is treated as effectively connected with the non-U.S. stockholder’s United States trade or business or (2) the non-U.S. stockholder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and certain other conditions are met. In addition, even if we qualify as a domestically controlled qualified investment entity, upon disposition of our common stock (subject to the 5% exception applicable to “regularly traded” stock described above), a non-U.S. stockholder may be treated as having gain from the sale or exchange of United States real property interest if the non-U.S. stockholder (1) disposes of our common stock within a 30-day period preceding the ex-dividend date of a distribution, any portion of which, but for the disposition, would have been treated as gain from the sale or exchange of a United States real property interest and (2) acquires, or enters into a contract or option to acquire, other shares of our common stock within the 61-day period beginning with the first day of the 30-day period described in clause (1).

Even if we do not qualify as a domestically-controlled qualified investment entity at the time a non-U.S. stockholder sells or exchanges our common stock, gain arising from such a sale or exchange would not be subject to United States taxation under FIRPTA as a sale of a United States real property interest if:

(1)   our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury regulations, on an established securities market such as the NYSE; and

(2)   such non-U.S. stockholder owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our common stock throughout the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or exchange.

If gain on the sale or exchange of our common stock were subject to taxation under FIRPTA, the non-U.S. stockholder would be subject to regular United States federal income tax with respect to such gain in the same manner as a taxable U.S. stockholder (subject to any applicable alternative minimum tax and a special alternative minimum tax in the case of nonresident alien individuals).  In addition, if the sale or exchange of our common stock were subject to taxation under FIRPTA, and if shares of our common stock were not “regularly traded” on an established securities market, the purchaser of such common stock would be required to withhold and remit to the IRS 10% of the purchase price.  If amounts withheld on a sale, redemption, repurchase, or exchange of our common stock exceed the holder’s substantive tax liability resulting from such disposition, such excess may be refunded or credited against such non-U.S. stockholder’s United States federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is provided to the IRS on a timely basis. Amounts withheld on any such sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of our common stock may not satisfy a non-U.S. stockholder’s entire tax liability under FIRPTA, and such non-U.S. stockholder remains liable for the timely payment of any remaining tax liability.

Backup Withholding Tax and Information Reporting.  Generally, we must report annually to the IRS the amount of dividends paid to a non-U.S. stockholder, such holder’s name and address, and the amount of tax withheld, if any. A similar report is sent to the non-U.S. stockholder. Pursuant to tax treaties or other agreements, the IRS may make its reports available to tax authorities in the non-U.S. stockholder’s country of residence.

Payments of dividends or of proceeds from the disposition of stock made to a non-U.S. stockholder may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding unless such holder establishes an exemption, for example, by properly certifying its non-United States status on an IRS Form W-8BEN or another appropriate version of IRS Form W-8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, backup withholding and information reporting may apply if either we or our paying agent has actual knowledge, or reason to know, that a non-U.S. stockholder is a United States person.

S-12

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the United States income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may be obtained, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS.

UNDERWRITING

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in the underwriting agreement and related terms agreement, each dated the date of this prospectus supplement, we have agreed to sell to each of the underwriters named below, for whom UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC are acting as joint book-running managers and representatives, and each of the underwriters has severally agreed to purchase from us, the respective number of shares of common stock set forth after its name below.

The obligations of the underwriters are subject to certain conditions. The underwriters must purchase all of the shares of common stock offered hereby (other than those covered by the underwriters’ over-allotment option) if any are purchased.

The underwriters are offering the shares of common stock, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by counsel, including the validity of the shares of common stock, and other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement and related terms agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriters of officers’ certificates and legal opinions.  The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

Commissions and Discounts

The underwriters have advised us that they propose initially to offer the shares of common stock to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and to dealers at that price less a concession not in excess of $         per share.  The underwriters may allow, and these dealers may re-allow, a concession of not more than $            per share to other dealers.  After the initial offering, the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed.

The following table shows the per share and total public offering price, underwriting discounts and proceeds, before expenses, to us, assuming either no exercise or full exercise by the underwriters of the over-allotment option described below.

We estimate that the total expenses related to this offering, excluding underwriting discounts, will be approximately $500,000 and are payable by us.

S-14

Over-allotment Option

We have granted to the underwriters an option, exercisable within 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement, to purchase up to 1,350,000 additional shares of common stock at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement.  The underwriters may exercise this option only to cover over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus supplement.  To the extent that the underwriters exercise this option, each of the underwriters will become obligated, subject to conditions, to purchase approximately the same percentage of these additional shares of common stock as the number of shares to be purchased by it in the above table bears to the 9,000,000 shares of common stock offered by this prospectus supplement. We will be obligated, pursuant to the option, to sell these additional shares of common stock to the underwriters to the extent the option is exercised. If any additional shares of common stock are purchased, the underwriters will offer the additional shares on the same terms as those on which the 9,000,000 shares of common stock are being offered.

No Sales of Similar Securities

We have agreed with UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC not to offer, sell, contract to sell, hedge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of our shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of common stock during the period from the date of this prospectus supplement continuing through the date 30 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, without the prior written consent of UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC (subject to certain customary exceptions, including in connection with the acquisiton or development of a property and representing less than 3% of the Company's common stock). This consent may be given at any time without public notice.

New York Stock Exchange Listing

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “KIM.”

Price Stabilization and Short Positions

Until the distribution of the shares of common stock is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the underwriters to bid for and purchase shares of common stock.  As an exception to these rules, the underwriters are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the shares of common stock.

The underwriters may over-allot the shares of common stock in connection with this offering, thus creating a short position for their own account.  Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares of common stock than they are committed to purchase in this offering.  A short position may involve either “covered” short sales or “naked” short sales.  Covered short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional shares of common stock as described above.  The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their over-allotment option or purchasing shares of common stock in the open market.  In determining the source of shares to close the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares of common stock available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares of common stock from us through the over-allotment option.  Naked short sales are sales in excess of the over-allotment option.  The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market.  A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares of common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering.

Accordingly, to cover these short sales positions or to stabilize the market price of the shares of common stock, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of common stock in the open market.  These transactions may be effected on the NYSE or otherwise.  Additionally, a representative, on behalf of the underwriters, may also reclaim selling concessions allowed to another underwriter or dealer.  Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales or to stabilize the market price of our shares of common stock may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our shares of common stock or preventing or mitigating a decline in the market price of our shares of common stock.  As a result, the price of the shares of common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market.  No representation is made as to the magnitude or effect of any such stabilization or other activities.  The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and, if commenced, may discontinue any of these activities at any time.

S-15

Other Relationships

In the ordinary course of their business, the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, commercial banking and investment banking transactions with us for which they have received or will receive customary fees and expenses.  In addition, we have joint venture investments with an affiliate of UBS Securities LLC in which we have non-controlling interests ranging from 15% to 20%.  Affiliates of certain of the underwriters are lenders under our U.S. revolving credit facility, and will receive their pro rata share of the amount of our U.S. revolving credit facility to be repaid with the net proceeds of the offering.

Sales Outside the United States

No action has been taken in any jurisdiction (except in the United States) that would permit a public offering of the shares of common stock, or the possession, circulation or distribution of this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any other material relating to us or the shares in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. Accordingly, the shares of common stock may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and none of this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the shares may be distributed or published, in or from any country or jurisdiction except in compliance with any applicable rules and regulations of any such country or jurisdiction.

Each of the underwriters may arrange to sell shares of common stock offered hereby in certain jurisdictions outside the United States, either directly or through affiliates, where they are permitted to do so. In that regard, Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC may arrange to sell shares in certain jurisdictions through an affiliate, Wachovia Securities International Limited, or WSIL. WSIL is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Wachovia Corporation and an affiliate of Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC. WSIL is a U.K. incorporated investment firm regulated by the Financial Services Authority. Wachovia Securities is the trade name for the corporate and investment banking services of Wachovia Corporation and its affiliates, including Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and WSIL.

·   made by investment firms, banks or financial intermediaries permitted to conduct such activities in the Republic of Italy in accordance with Legislative Decree No. 385 of 1 September 1993 as amended (“Decree No. 385”), Decree No. 58, CONSOB Regulation No. 11522 and any other applicable laws and regulations;

·   in compliance with any other applicable notification requirement or limitation which may be imposed by CONSOB or the Bank of Italy.

European Economic Area.   In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area that has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), each underwriter that acts in connection with the sale of these securities will represent and agree that an offer to the public of any securities which are subject of the offering contemplated by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may not be made in that Relevant Member State except that an offer to the public in that Relevant Member State of any securities may be made at any time under the following exemptions under the Prospectus Directive, if they have been implemented in that Relevant Member State:

S-17

·   to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities;

·   to any legal entity which has two or more of (1) an average of at least 250 employees during the last financial year; (2) a total balance sheet of more than €43,000,000; and (3) an annual net turnover of more than €50,000,000, as shown in its last annual or consolidated accounts;

·   in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive,

provided that no such offer of securities shall result in a requirement for the publication by the issuer or any underwriter of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.

Each person in a Relevant Member State who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any securities under, the offers contemplated in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed to and with us and each underwriter that acts in connection with the offer or sale of the securities that:

·   it is a qualified investor within the meaning of the law in that Relevant Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive; and

·   in the case of any securities acquired by it as a financial intermediary, as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, (1) the securities acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in any Relevant Member State other than qualified investors, as that term is defined in the Prospectus Directive, or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the underwriter has been given to the offer or resale; or (2) where securities have been acquired by it on behalf of persons in any Relevant Member State other than qualified investors, the offer of those securities to it is not treated under the Prospectus Directive as having been made to such persons.

For the purposes of the provisions in the two immediately preceding paragraphs, the expression an “offer of the securities to the public” in relation to the securities in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the securities, as the same may be varied in the Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State, and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.
