Any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such property shall be allocated in the same manner as Net Termination Gain or Net Termination Loss pursuant to Section 5.1(c); provided, however, that, in making any such allocation, Net Termination Gain or Net Termination Loss actually realized shall be allocated first.

(iii)Consistent with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), in connection with the issuance by the Partnership of a Non Compensatory Option, the Capital Account of all Partners and the Carrying Value of each Partnership property immediately prior to such issuance shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Partnership property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized on an actual sale of each such property immediately prior to such issuance and had been allocated to the Partners at such time pursuant to Sections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b). In determining such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss, the aggregate cash amount and fair market value of all Partnership assets (including, without limitation, cash or cash equivalents) immediately prior to the issuance of additional Partnership Interests shall be determined by the General Partner using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt; provided, however, that the General Partner, in arriving at such valuation, must take fully into account the fair market value of the Partnership Interests of all Partners at such time.

ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 5.1Allocations for Capital Account Purposes.

For purposes of maintaining the Capital Accounts and in determining the rights of the Partners among themselves, the Partnership’s items of income, gain, loss and deduction (computed in accordance with Section 4.5(b)) shall be allocated among the Partners in each taxable year (or portion thereof) as provided herein below.

(a)Net Income. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.1(d), Net Income for each taxable period and all items of income, gain, loss and deduction taken into account in computing Net Income for such taxable period shall be allocated as follows:

-29-

(i)First, 100% to the General Partner until the aggregate Net Income allocated to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 5.1(a)(i) for the current taxable year and all previous taxable years is equal to the aggregate Net Losses allocated to the General Partner pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(ii) for all previous taxable years; and

(ii)Second, the balance, if any, 100% to the General Partner and the Limited Partner in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

(b)Net Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.1(d), Net Losses for each taxable period and all items of income, gain, loss and deduction taken into account in computing Net Losses for such taxable period shall be allocated as follows:

(i)First, 100% to the General Partner and the Limited Partner in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests; provided, that Net Losses shall not be allocated pursuant to this Section 5.1(b)(i) to the extent that such allocation would cause the Limited Partner to have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital. Account at the end of such taxable year (or increase any existing deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account); and

(ii)Second, the balance, if any, 100% to the General Partner.

(c)Net Termination Gains and Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.1(d), all items of income, gain, loss and deduction taken into account in computing Net Termination Gain or Net Termination Loss; for such taxable period shall be allocated in the same manner as such Net Termination Gain or Net Termination Loss is allocated hereunder. All allocations under this Section 5.1(c) shall be made after Capital Account balances have been adjusted by all other allocations provided under this Section 5.1(c) after all distributions of Available Cash provided under Section 5.3 have been made with respect to the taxable period ending on the date of the Partnership’s liquidation pursuant to Section 13.3.

(i)If a Net Termination Gain is recognized (or deemed recognized pursuant to Section 4.5(d)) from Termination Capital Transactions, such Net Termination Gain shall be allocated between the General Partner and the Limited Partner in the following manner (and the Adjusted Capital Accounts of the Partners shall be increased by the amount so allocated in each of the following subclauses, in the order listed, before an allocation is made pursuant to the next succeeding subclause):

-30-

(A) First, to each Partner having a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account, in the proportion that such deficit balance bears to the total deficit balances in the Adjusted Capital Accounts of all Partners, until each such Partner has been allocated Net Termination Gain equal to any such deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account; and

(B) Second, 100% to the General Partner and the Limited Partner in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

(ii)If a Net Termination Loss is recognized (or deemed recognized pursuant to Section 4.5(d)) from Termination Capital Transactions, such Net Termination Loss shall be allocated to the Partners in the following manner:

(A)First, 100% to the General Partner and the Limited Partner in proportion to, and to the extent of, the positive balances in their respective Adjusted Capital Accounts; and

(B)Second, the balance, if any, 100% to the General Partner.

(d)Special Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.1, the following special allocations shall be made for such taxable period:

(i)Partnership Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.1, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership taxable period, each Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2) (i), or any successor provision. For purposes of this Section 5.1(d), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.1(d) with respect to such taxable period (other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.1 (d)(v) and (vi)). This Section 5.1(d)(i) is intended to comply with the Partnership Minimum Gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(ii)Chargeback of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 5.1 (other than Section 5.1(d) (i)), except as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any Partnership

-31-

taxable period, any Partner with a share of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such taxable period shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii), or any successor provisions. For purposes of this Section 5.1(d), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income or gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.1(d), other than Section 5.1(d)(i) and other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.1(d)(v) and (vi), with respect to such taxable period. This Section 5.1(d)(ii) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items of income and gain requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii)Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specifically allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible, unless such deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant to Section 5.1(d)(i) or (ii).

(iv)Gross Income Allocations. In the event any Partner has a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account at the end of any Partnership taxable period such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.1(d)(iv) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account after all other allocations provided in this Section 5.1 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.1(d)(iv) were not in this Agreement.

(v)Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. If the General Partner determines in its good faith discretion that the Partnership’s Nonrecourse Deductions must be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the General Partner is authorized, upon notice to the Limited Partner, to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest ratio that does satisfy such requirements.

-32-

(vi)Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Partner that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Partner bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Partners in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss.

(vii)Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Partners agree that Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Partnership in excess of the sum of (A) the amount of Partnership Minimum Gain and (B) the total amount of Nonrecourse Built-in Gain shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

(viii)Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Treasury Regulations.

(ix)Curative Allocation.

(A)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.1, other than the Required Allocations, the Required Allocations shall be taken into account in making the Agreed Allocations so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of items of income, gain, loss and deduction allocated to each Partner pursuant to the Required Allocations and the Agreed Allocations, together, shall be equal to the net amount of such items that would have been allocated to each such Partner under the Agreed Allocations had the Required Allocations and the related Curative Allocation not otherwise been provided in this Section 5.1. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Required Allocations relating to (1) Nonrecourse Deductions shall not be taken, into account except to the extent that there has been a decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain and (2) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions shall not be taken into account except to the extent that there has been a decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Allocations pursuant to this Section

-33-

5.1(d)(ix)(A) shall only be made with respect to Required Allocations to the extent the General Partner reasonably determines that such allocations will otherwise be inconsistent with the economic agreement among the Partners. Further, allocations pursuant to this Section 5.1(d)(ix)(A) shall be deferred with respect to allocations pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) hereof to the extent the General Partner reasonably determines that such allocations are likely to be offset by subsequent Required Allocations.

(B)The General Partner shall have reasonable discretion, with respect to each taxable period, to (1) apply the provisions of Section 5.1(d)(ix)(A) in whatever order is most likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from the Required Allocations, and (2) divide all allocations pursuant to Section 5.1(d)(ix)(A) among the Partners in a manner that is likely to minimize such economic distortions.

(x)Non Compensatory Options. If capital is reallocated between or among the Partners pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(s), then the Partnership shall make corrective allocations pursuant to Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(x).

(e)Allocations to Acquisition General Partner. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.1, no items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated to the Acquisition General Partner.

Section 5.2Allocations for Tax Purposes.

(a)Except as otherwise provided herein, for federal income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Section 5.1.

(b)In an attempt to eliminate Book-Tax Disparities attributable to a Contributed Property or Adjusted Property, items of income, gain, loss, depreciation, amortization and cost recovery deductions shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the Partners as follows:

(i)(A) In the case of a Contributed Property, such items attributable thereto shall be allocated among the Partners in the manner provided under Section 704(c) of the Code that takes into account the variation between the Agreed Value of such property and its adjusted basis at the time of contribution; and (B) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(b)(iii), any item of Residual Gain or Residual Loss

-34-

attributable to a Contributed Property shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” gain or loss is allocated pursuant to Section 5.1.

(ii)(A) In the case of an Adjusted Property, such items shall (1) first, be allocated among the Partners in a manner consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code to take into account the Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such property and the allocations thereof pursuant to Section 4.5(d)(i) through 4.5(d)(iii), and (2) second, in the event such property was originally a Contributed Property, be allocated among the Partners in a manner consistent with Section 5.2(b)(i)(A); and (B) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(b)(iii), any item of Residual Gain or Residual Loss attributable to an Adjusted Property shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” gain or loss is allocated pursuant to Section 5.1.

(iii)The General Partner shall apply the principles of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3 to eliminate Book-Tax Disparities.

(c)For the proper administration of the Partnership and for the preservation of uniformity of Units of the MLP (or any class or classes thereof), the General Partner shall have sole discretion to (i) adopt such conventions as it deems appropriate in determining the amount of depreciation, amortization and cost recovery deductions; (ii) make special allocations for federal income tax purposes of income (including, without limitation, gross income) or deductions; and (iii) amend the provisions of this Agreement as appropriate (x) to reflect the proposal or promulgation of Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) or Section 704(c) of the Code or (y) otherwise to preserve or achieve uniformity of Units of the MLP (or any class or classes thereof). The General Partner may adopt such conventions, make such allocations and make such amendments to this Agreement as provided in this Section 5.2(c) only if such conventions, allocations or amendments would not have (i) a material adverse effect on the Partners, the holders of any class or classes of Units of the MLP issued and outstanding or the Partnership or (ii) an adverse effect on a class of Units of the MLP relative to one or more other classes of Units of the MLP, and if such allocations are consistent with the principles of Section 704 of the Code.

(d)The General Partner in its sole discretion may determine to depreciate or amortize the portion of an adjustment under Section 743(b) of the Code attributable to unrealized appreciation in any Adjusted Property (to the extent of the unamortized Book-Tax Disparity) using a predetermined rate derived from the depreciation or amortization method and useful life applied to the Partnership’s common basis of such property, despite the inconsistency of such approach with Treasury Regulation Section 1.167(c)-1(a)(6) or the legislative history of Section 197 of the Code. If the General Partner determines that such reporting position cannot reasonably be taken,

-35-

the General Partner may adopt depreciation and amortization conventions under which all purchasers acquiring Units of the MLP in the same month would receive depreciation and amortization deductions, based upon the same applicable rate as if they had purchased a direct interest in the Partnership’s property. If the General Partner chooses not to utilize such aggregate method, the General Partner may use any other reasonable depreciation and amortization conventions to preserve the uniformity of the intrinsic tax characteristics of any class or classes of Units of the MLP that would not have a material adverse effect on the Limited Partner or the holders of any class or classes of Units of the MLP.

(e)Any gain allocated to the Partners upon the sale or other taxable disposition of any Partnership asset shall, to the extent possible, be characterized as Recapture Income in the same proportions and to the same extent as such Partners (or their predecessors in interest) have been allocated any deductions directly or indirectly giving rise to the treatment of such gains as Recapture Income.

(f)All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit recognized by the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and allocated to the Partners in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be determined without regard to any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Partnership; provided, however, that such allocations, once made, shall be adjusted as necessary or appropriate to take into account those adjustments permitted or required by Sections 734 and 743 of the Code.

(g)The General Partner may adopt such methods of allocation of income, gain, loss or deduction between a transferor and a transferee of a Partnership Interest as it determines necessary, to the extent permitted or required by Section 706 of the Code and the regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder.

Section 5.3Requirement of Distributions.

(a)Within 45 days following the end of each Quarter, an amount equal to 100% of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter shall be distributed in accordance with this Article V by the Partnership to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. The immediately preceding sentence shall not require any distribution of cash if and to the extent such distribution would be prohibited by applicable law or by any loan agreement, security agreement, mortgage, debt instrument or other similar agreement or obligation to which the Partnership is a party or by which it is bound or its assets are subject.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership, all proceeds of such liquidation shall be applied and distributed in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Sections 13.3 and 13.4.

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the MLP Agreement, the Delaware Act or any applicable law, rule or regulation, each of the Partners hereby (i) approves, ratifies and confirms the execution, delivery and performance by the parties thereto of the MLP Agreement, the Underwriting Agreements, the Contribution Agreement, the agreements and other documents filed as exhibits to the Registration Statements, and the other agreements described in or filed as a part of the Registration Statements, and the engaging by any Affiliate of the General Partner in business and activities (other than Restricted Activities) that are in direct competition with the business and activities of the MLP, the Partnership, any OLP Subsidiary and any MLP Subsidiary; (ii) agrees that the General Partner (on its own or through any officer of the Partnership) is authorized to execute, deliver and perform the agreements referred to in clause (i) of this sentence and the other agreements, acts, transactions and matters described in the Registration Statements on behalf of the Partnership without any further act, approval or vote of the Partners; and (iii) agrees that the execution, delivery or performance by the General Partner, the MLP, the Partnership or any Affiliate of any of them of this Agreement or any agreement authorized or permitted under this Agreement, or the engaging by any Affiliate of the General Partner in any business and activities (other than Restricted Activities) that are in direct competition with the business and activities of the MLP, the Partnership, any OLP Subsidiary and any MLP Subsidiary, shall not constitute a breach by the General Partner of any duty that the General Partner may owe the Partnership or the Limited Partners or any other Persons under this Agreement (or any other agreements) or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity. The term “Affiliate” when used in this Section 6.1(b) with respect to the General Partner shall not include the Partnership, the MLP, any OLP Subsidiary or any MLP Subsidiary.

(1)permit or authorize the Partnership, or any of its Subsidiaries to incur any Indebtedness other than (A) Indebtedness incurred and outstanding at any time under the Revolving Credit Facility (in an amount up to the aggregate commitments under such Revolving Credit Agreement on the Effective Date) or High Yield Notes (in an amount up to the aggregate initial principal amount of such High Yield Notes on the Effective Date); (B) additional Indebtedness that does not exceed $75,000,000 in the aggregate; and (C) the incurrence of Indebtedness in connection with customary refinancing of the obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement (in an amount up to the aggregate commitments under such Revolving Credit Agreement on the Effective Date) and the High Yield Notes (in an amount up to the aggregate initial principal amount of such High Yield Notes on the Effective Date) plus customary interest, premium and financing expenses (with any increase in the applicable interest, premium or expenses counting towards the $75,000,000 basket set forth in the preceding clause (B));

(2)authorize or permit the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries to issue any Units, Partnership Securities, or any equity securities (other than the Senior Preferred Units of the Partnership being issued in connection with the Plan), whether common or preferred, or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities or redeem equity securities, whether common or preferred (other than the redemption of the Senior Preferred Units of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement);

(3)authorize or permit the Partnership or any of its respective Subsidiaries to enter into or to engage in any transaction or series of related-party transactions between the Partnership or any of its respective Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the General Partner, James E. Ferrell, any Related Party or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Partnership and its respective Subsidiaries), on the other hand, (other than (i) transactions currently existing and listed on Schedule II to the First Amendment to Operating Partnership Agreement as in effect on the Effective Date and (ii) transactions among the Partnership and its respective Subsidiaries) unless such transactions, taken as a whole, are on terms no less favorable to the

-39-

Partnership or such Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in comparable transactions with non-related party or non-affiliated counterparties and such transactions in the aggregate do not have a value in excess of $10,000,000. With respect to any transaction involving aggregate payments equal to or greater than $10,000,000, the Partnership shall have obtained and delivered to the Class B Holders an opinion from an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing stating that such transaction is fair to the Partnership (as applicable) or its respective Subsidiaries from a financial point of view or stating that the transaction, taken as a whole, is on terms no less favorable to the Partnership or such Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction with a non-related party or non-affiliated counterparty;

(4)excepting only Ordinary Course Dispositions, authorize or permit the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets (through an asset acquisition, merger, stock acquisition or other form of transaction) that generate net proceeds (in the aggregate), including all MLP and MLP Subsidiary transactions of $25,000,000 or more; provided that neither the Operating Partnership or any of its respective subsidiaries shall permit Asset Sales, other than dispositions of inventory or cash equivalents in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, in the aggregate, including Ordinary Course Dispositions, to exceed $150,000,000;

(6)authorize or permit the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries to voluntarily file for bankruptcy, adopt a plan or agreement of complete or partial liquidation or dissolution or take any comparable action; provided, however, that a Subsidiary of the Partnership may liquidate and/or dissolve

if the assets of such Subsidiary either are, after the liquidation or dissolution, owned by the Partnership or another Subsidiary of the Partnership or are the subject of an Ordinary Course Disposition permitted hereunder.

(7)authorize or permit the Partnership and any of its respective subsidiaries to directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on or with respect to any property, right or asset of any kind (including any document or instrument in respect of goods or accounts receivable) of the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits therefrom, except Permitted Liens;

(ii)without the prior written consent of the holders of no less than two-thirds of the then-outstanding Class B Units, the General Partner shall not authorize or permit the amendment (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of any of the organizational documents of the General Partner that (x) adversely affects the rights, powers, obligations or otherwise of the Independent Class B Director, including as a member of the board of directors of the General Partner (it being understood that an increase in the number of members of the board of directors within the range provided in Section 3.1 of the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws of Ferrellgas (as in effect as of the date hereof) shall not be considered to have such an effect), (y) adversely affects the applicability of the Voting Agreement on the General Partner or the organizational documents of the General Partner or (z) otherwise would have an adverse effect on the holders of Class B Units.

(iii)With respect to the obtaining of any Requisite Class B Unit Consent in connection with any matter described in Section 6.1(d), any Class B Holder that does not consent or does not decline to provide its consent within seven (7) Business Days of receiving actual notice of the consent request shall be deemed to have consented to such request; provided that any request for such consent must, in order to constitute a valid consent request, (i) be in writing (email or any other form of electronic transmission being sufficient to the address supplied to the Partnership or the Transfer Agent by the Class B Holder), (ii) include a reminder of the effect of this provision and (iii) set forth the applicable deadline to respond before consent is deemed given. The Partnership shall promptly provide any information that any Class B Holder reasonably requests in order to evaluate the consent request. For the avoidance of doubt, “actual notice” means the direct email delivery of the consent request to the beneficial holder of the Class B Units or the investment advisors, sub-advisors, or managers of discretionary accounts that hold the Class B Units rather than the Depository to the extent that such Class B Holder has provided sufficient

-41-

contact information to the Partnership or the Transfer Agent. If a Class B Holder does not provide the Partnership or the Transfer Agent with contact information, actual notice under this Section 6.1(d) shall be deemed delivered upon posting of a request for consent to DTC LENs or similar system with respect to the Class B Holder; provided, however, to the extent that thirty-three percent (33%) or more of the Class B Units affirmatively denies the Partnership’s request, the Partnership shall be required to obtain the affirmative written consent of a sufficient number of the Class B Holders to satisfy the requirements of Requisite Class B Unit Consent and the Partnership shall not be permitted to rely on the deemed consent set forth in this Section 6.1(d); provided further that the Partnership may not rely on this Section 6.1(d) for deemed consent unless it has given actual notice of such consent request to all Class B Holders (including through the posting of such consent request to DTC LENs for those Class B Holders which have not provided the Partnership or Transfer Agent with contact information) in accordance with this Section 6.1(d).

Section 6.2Certificate of Limited Partnership.

The General Partner has caused the Certificate of Limited Partnership of Ferrellgas, L.P. to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as required by the Delaware Act and shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be filed such other certificates or documents as may be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate for the formation, continuation, qualification and operation of a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the Limited Partner has limited liability) in the State of Delaware or any other state in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. To the extent that such action is determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the General Partner shall file amendments to and restatements of the Certificate of Limited Partnership and do all things to maintain the Partnership as a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the Limited Partner has limited liability) under the laws of the State of Delaware or of any other state in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. Subject to the terms of Section 7.4(a), the General Partner shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Certificate of Limited Partnership, any qualification document or any amendment thereto to the Limited Partner.

Section 6.3Restrictions on General Partner’s Authority.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein:

(i)The General Partner may not, without written approval of the specific act by the Limited Partner and all of the Outstanding (as such term is defined in the MLP Agreement) Class A Units and Class B Units or by other written instrument

executed and delivered by the Limited Partner and the Outstanding (as such term is defined in the MLP Agreement) Class A Units and Class B Units subsequent to the date of this Agreement (except as to clause (v) which shall require the approval or consent of two-thirds of the Class B Units then outstanding), take any action in contravention of this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) any act that would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Partnership, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement; (ii) possess Partnership property, or assign any rights in specific Partnership property, for other than a Partnership purpose; (iii) admit a Person as a Limited Partner, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement; (iv) amend this Agreement in any manner, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement; or (v) transfer its interest as general partner of the Partnership, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(ii)Except as provided in Articles XIII and XV, the General Partner may not sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets in a single transaction or a series of related transactions or approve on behalf of the Partnership the sale, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, without obtaining the approvals required by Section 6.1(d), Section 6.13 and/or the Amendment; provided however, that this provision shall not preclude or limit the General Partner’s ability to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets and shall not apply to any forced sale of any or all of the Partnership’s assets pursuant to the foreclosure of, or other realization upon, any such encumbrance. Without the approval of the holders of at least two thirds of the Outstanding (as such term is defined in the MLP Agreement) Class A Units and obtaining the approvals required by Section 6.1(d), Section 6.13 and/or the Amendment, the General Partner shall not, on behalf of the Partnership, (i) consent to any amendment to the Agreement or take any action permitted to be taken by a partner of the Partnership, in either case, that would have a material adverse effect on the Partnership or (ii) except as permitted under Sections 11.4, 12.1 and 12.2 elect or cause the Partnership to elect a successor general partner of the Partnership.

-43-

corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for federal income tax purposes; provided that this Section 6.3(a)(iii) shall not be construed to apply to amendments to this Agreement (which are governed by Article XIV) or mergers or consolidations of the Partnership with any Person (which are governed by Article XV).

(b)At all times while serving as the general partner of the Partnership, the General Partner shall not (except as provided below) make any dividend or distribution on, or repurchase any shares of, its stock or take any other action within its control unless it shall first receive an Opinion of Counsel that the effect of such dividend, distribution, repurchase or other action would not reduce its net worth below an amount such that the Partnership will be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes; provided, however, to the extent the General Partner receives distributions of cash from the Partnership or any other partnership of which the Partnership is, directly or indirectly, a partner, the General Partner shall not use such cash to make any dividend or distribution on, or repurchase any shares of, its stock or take any other action within its control if the effect of such dividend, distribution, repurchase or other action would be to reduce its net worth below an amount necessary to receive an Opinion of Counsel that the Partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

(a)Except as provided in this Section 6.4 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not be compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership.

(b)The General Partner shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole discretion, for (i) all direct and indirect expenses it incurs or payments it makes on behalf of the Partnership (including, without limitation, salary, bonus, incentive compensation and other amounts paid to any Person to perform services for the Partnership or for the General Partner in the discharge of its duties to the Partnership) and (ii), all other necessary or appropriate expenses allocable to the Partnership or otherwise reasonably incurred by the General Partner in connection with operating the Partnership’s business (including, without limitation, expenses allocated to the General Partner by its Affiliates). The General Partner shall determine the fees and expenses that are allocable to the Partnership in any reasonable manner determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion. Reimbursements pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be in addition to any reimbursement to the General Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 6.7.

Section 6.5Outside Activities of General Partner.

(a)The General Partner (i) agrees that its sole business will be to act as the general partner of the Partnership, the MLP, any OLP Subsidiary and any MLP Subsidiary and to

-44-

undertake activities that are ancillary or related thereto (including being a limited partner in the MLP), (ii) shall not enter into or conduct any business or incur any debts or liabilities except in connection with or incidental to (A) its performance of the activities required or authorized by this Agreement or the MLP Agreement or described in or contemplated by the Registration Statements and (B) the acquisition, ownership or disposition of partnership interests in the Partnership, the MLP, any OLP Subsidiary and any MLP Subsidiary, except that, notwithstanding the foregoing, employees of the General Partner may perform services for Ferrell and its Affiliates and (iii) shall not and shall cause its Affiliates not to engage in any Restricted Activities.

Neither the Partnership, the MLP, any Limited Partner nor any other Person shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement or the MLP Agreement or the partnership relationship established hereby or thereby in any business ventures of any Indemnitee (subject, in the case of the General Partner, to compliance with Section 6.5(c)) and such Indemnitees shall have no obligation to offer any interest in any such business ventures to the Partnership, the MLP, any Limited Partner or any other Person.

(c)Subject to the terms of Sections 6.5(a) and (b) but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the competitive activities of any Indemnitees (other than the General Partner) are hereby approved by the Partnership and all Partners and (ii) it shall be deemed not to be a breach of the General Partner’s fiduciary duty or any other Obligation of any type whatsoever of the General Partner for the General Partner to permit an Affiliate of the General Partner to engage, or for any such Affiliate to engage, in business interests or activities (other than Restricted Activities) in preference to or to the exclusion of the Partnership.

-45-

(d)The term “Affiliates” when used in this Section 6.5 with respect to the General Partner shall not include the Partnership, the MLP, an OLP Subsidiary or an MLP Subsidiary.

Section 6.6Loans to and from the General Partner; Contracts with Affiliates.

(a)Subject to Section 6.1(d) and the Amendment, (i) the General Partner, the Limited Partner, an OLP Subsidiary or any of their Affiliates may lend to the Partnership, and the Partnership may borrow, funds needed or desired by the Partnership for such periods of time as the General Partner may determine and (ii) the General Partner, the Limited Partner, an OLP Subsidiary or any Affiliate thereof may borrow from the Partnership, and the Partnership may lend to such Affiliates, excess funds of the Partnership for such periods of time and in such amounts as the General Partner may determine; provided, however, that in either such case the lending party may not charge the borrowing party interest at a rate greater than the rate that would be charged the borrowing party (without reference to the lending party’s financial abilities or guarantees) by unrelated lenders on comparable loans. The borrowing party shall reimburse the lending party for any costs (other than any additional interest costs) incurred by the lending party in connection with the borrowing of such funds. For purposes of this Section 6.6(a) and Section 6.6(b), the term “Partnership” shall include any Affiliate of the Partnership that is controlled by the Partnership.

(i)Subject to Section 6.1(d) and the Amendment, the General Partner may itself, or may enter into an agreement with any of its Affiliates to, render services to the Partnership or to the General Partner in the discharge of its duties as general partner of the Partnership. Any service rendered to the Partnership by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates shall be on terms that are fair and reasonable to the Partnership; provided, however, that subject to Section 6.1(d) and the Amendment, the requirements of this Section 6.6(b) shall be deemed satisfied as to (i) any transaction approved by Special Approval, (ii) any transaction the terms of which are no less favorable to the Partnership than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties or (iii) any transaction that, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be particularly favorable or advantageous to the Partnership), is equitable to the Partnership. The provisions of Section 6.4 shall apply to the rendering of services described in this Section 6.6(b).

(b)Subject to Section 6.1(d) and the Amendment, the Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, other partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies or other business entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions as are consistent with this Agreement and applicable law.

(d)The General Partner and its Affiliates will have no obligation to permit the Partnership, an OLP Subsidiary or the MLP to use any facilities or assets of the General Partner and its Affiliates, except as may be provided in contracts entered into from time to time specifically dealing with such use, nor shall there be any obligation on the part of the General Partner or its Affiliates to enter into such contracts.

(e)Without limitation of Sections 6.6(a) through 6.6(d), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the existence of the conflicts of interest described in the Registration Statements are hereby approved by all Partners.

Section 6.7Indemnification.

(a)To the fullest extent permitted by law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in this Agreement, the General Partner, any Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an officer or director of the Partnership, the General Partner, or any Departing Partner and all other Indemnitees shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as (i) the General Partner, a Departing Partner or any of their Affiliates, (ii) an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the Partnership, the General Partner, any Departing Partner or any of their Affiliates or (iii) a Person serving at the request of the Partnership in another entity in a similar capacity, provided, that in each case the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which such Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe its conduct was unlawful; provided, further, no

-47-

indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be available to the General Partner with respect to its obligations incurred pursuant to the Contribution Agreement (other than obligations incurred by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or the MLP). The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified above. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership, it being agreed that the General Partner shall not be personally liable for such indemnification and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate such indemnification.

(b)To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee who is indemnified pursuant to Section 6.7(a) in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Partnership prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 6.7.

(c)The indemnification provided by this Section 6.7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Partners, as a matter of law or otherwise, both as to actions in the Indemnitee’s capacity as (i) the General Partner, a Departing Partner or an Affiliate thereof, (ii) an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the Partnership, the General Partner, any Departing Partner or an Affiliate thereof or (iii) a Person serving at the request of the Partnership in another entity in a similar capacity, and as to actions in any other capacity (including, without limitation, any capacity under the Underwriting Agreements), and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee.

(d)The Partnership may purchase and maintain (or reimburse the General Partner or its Affiliates for the cost of) insurance, on behalf of the General Partner and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expense that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Partnership’s activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

(e)For purposes of this Section 6.7, the Partnership shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its duties to the Partnership also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on an

-48-

Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute “fines” within the meaning of Section 6.7(a); and action taken or omitted by it with respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably believed by it to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership.

(f)In no event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partner to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.

(g)An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 6.7 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

(h)The provisions of this Section 6.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.

(i)No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 6.7 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Partnership, nor the obligation of the Partnership to indemnify any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.7 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

Section 6.8Liability of Indemnitees.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, no Indemnitee shall be liable for monetary damages to the Partnership, the Limited Partner, or any other Persons who have acquired interests in the Partnership, for losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission if such Indemnitee acted in good faith.

(b)Subject to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in Section 6.1 (a), the General Partner may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its agents, and the General Partner shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by the General Partner in good faith.

(c)Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 6.8 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability to the Partnership and the Limited Partner of the General Partner, its directors, officers and employees

-49-

and any other Indemnitees under this Section 6.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

Section 6.9Resolution of Conflicts of Interest.

(a)Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the MLP Agreement, whenever a potential conflict of interest exists or arises between the General Partner or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Partnership, the MLP or the Limited Partner, on the other hand, any resolution or course of action in respect of such conflict of interest shall be permitted and deemed approved by the Limited Partner, and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, of the MLP Agreement or of any agreement contemplated herein or therein, or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity, if the resolution or course of action is, or by operation of this Agreement is deemed to be, fair and reasonable to the Partnership. Subject to Section 6.1(d) and the Amendment, the General Partner shall be authorized but not required in connection with its resolution of such conflict of interest to seek Special Approval of a resolution of such conflict or course of action. Any conflict of interest and any resolution of such conflict of interest shall be conclusively deemed fair and reasonable to the Partnership if such conflict of interest or resolution is (i) approved by Special Approval, (ii) on terms no less favorable to the Partnership than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties or (iii) fair to the Partnership, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be particularly favorable or advantageous to the Partnership). The General Partner may also adopt a resolution or course of action that has not received Special Approval. The General Partner (including the Audit Committee in connection with Special Approval) shall be authorized in connection with its determination of what is “fair and reasonable” to the Partnership and in connection with its resolution of any conflict of interest to consider (A) the relative interests of any party to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interest; (B) any customary or accepted industry practices and any customary or historical dealings with a particular Person; (C) any applicable generally accepted accounting or engineering practices or principles; and (D) such additional factors as the General Partner (including such Audit Committee) determines in its sole discretion to be relevant, reasonable or appropriate under the circumstances. Nothing contained in this Agreement, however, is intended to nor shall it be construed to require the General Partner (including such Audit Committee) to consider the interests of any Person other than the Partnership. In the absence of bad faith by the General Partner, the resolution, action or terms so made, taken or provided by the General Partner with respect to such matter shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.1(d), Section 6.13 and the Amendment), the MLP Agreement or any other agreement

-50-

contemplated herein or a breach of any standard of care or duty imposed herein or therein or under the Delaware Act or any other law, rule or regulation.

(b)Subject to the Amendment, whenever this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby provides that the General Partner or any of its Affiliates is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its “sole discretion” or “discretion,” that it deems “necessary or appropriate” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the General Partner or such Affiliate shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of, or factors affecting, the Partnership, the MLP, an OLP Subsidiary, the Limited Partner or any limited partner in the MLP, (ii) it may make such decision in its sole discretion (regardless of whether there is a reference to “sole discretion” or “discretion”) unless another express standard is provided for, or (iii) in “good faith” or under another express standard, the General Partner or such Affiliate shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by this Agreement, the MLP Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Delaware Act or any other law, rule or regulation. In addition, any actions taken by the General Partner or such Affiliate consistent with the standards of “reasonable discretion” set forth in the definition of Available Cash shall not constitute a breach of any duty of the General Partner to the Partnership or the Limited Partner. The General Partner shall have no duty, express or implied, to sell or otherwise dispose of any asset of the Partnership or of an OLP Subsidiary, other than in the ordinary course of business.

(c)Whenever a particular transaction, arrangement or resolution of a conflict of interest is required under this Agreement to be “fair and reasonable” to any Person, the fair and reasonable nature of such transaction, arrangement or resolution shall be considered in the context of all similar or related transactions.

Section 6.10Other Matters Concerning the General Partner.

(a)The General Partner may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

(b)The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion (including, without limitation, an Opinion of Counsel) of such Persons as to matters that the General Partner reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion.

-51-

(c)The General Partner shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly authorized officers and a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact. Each such attorney shall, to the extent provided by the General Partner in the power of attorney, have full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and duty that is permitted or required to be done by the General Partner hereunder.

(d)Any standard of care and duty imposed by this Agreement or under the Delaware Act or any applicable law, rule or regulation shall be modified, waived or limited as required to permit the General Partner to act under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated by this Agreement and to make any decision pursuant to the authority prescribed in this Agreement so long as such action is reasonably believed by the General Partner to be in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Partnership. For the avoidance of any doubt, all fiduciary duties otherwise arising under Delaware law are hereby eliminated as to the General Partner and such duties are hereby disclaimed.

(e)Any employees or other Persons providing services to the Partnership, even if employed by the General Partner, in the operating of its business and affairs, shall, at times, be subject to the direction and control of the General Partner.

Section 6.11Title to Partnership Assets.

Title to Partnership assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an entity, and no Partner, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership interest in such Partnership assets or any portion thereof. Title to any or all of the Partnership assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner, one or more of its Affiliates or one or more nominees, as the General Partner may determine. The General Partner hereby declares and warrants that any Partnership assets for which record title is held in the name of the General Partner or one or more of its Affiliates or one or more nominees shall be held by the General Partner or such Affiliate or nominee for the use and benefit of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the General Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to cause record title to such assets (other than those assets in respect of which the General Partner determines that the expense and difficulty of conveyancing makes transfer of record title to the Partnership impracticable) to be vested in the Partnership as soon as reasonably practicable; provided that, prior to the withdrawal or removal of the General Partner or as soon thereafter as practicable, the General Partner shall use reasonable efforts to effect the transfer of record title to the Partnership and, prior to any such transfer, will provide for the use of such assets in a manner satisfactory to the Partnership. All Partnership assets

-52-

shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its books and records, irrespective of the name in which record title to such Partnership assets is held.

Section 6.12Reliance by Third Parties.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Person dealing with the Partnership shall be entitled to assume that the General Partner has full power and authority to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Partnership and to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner as if it were the Partnership’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. The Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies that may be available against such Person to contest, negate or disaffirm any action of the General Partner in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing with the General Partner or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expedience of any act or action of the General Partner or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General Partner or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that (a) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement was in full force and effect, (b) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Partnership and (c) such certificate, document or instrument was duly executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Partnership.

(b)The creditors of Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. and the General Partner (or such creditors’ agents, trustees or designees) in respect of a debt secured by any Partnership Interest held by the Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. or the General Partner are third party beneficiaries under this Agreement with respect to this Section 6.12(b), Section 10.2(d) and Section 14.2.

Section 6.13Special Provisions Relating to Class B Units.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time when any Class B Units of the MLP are outstanding, the Partnership shall not, and the General Partner shall not authorize or permit the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries to:

(i)have any business operations independent of or outside the Partnership and its Subsidiaries;

(ii)materially change the nature of their respective businesses or operations except changes in the manner in which the propane distribution and ancillary operations of the business are conducted, if such changes are consistent with industry-wide practices;

-53-

(iii)cause any modification to the organizational structure of the MLP or Partnership that has the effect of the MLP not being the direct record and beneficial holder of all the limited partnership units of the Partnership (excepting only the Senior Preferred Units of the Partnership issued in connection with the Plan on the Effective Date);

(iv)amend or modify this Agreement or other Partnership organizational documents (in each case by merger consolidation or otherwise), and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries, to amend or modify their partnership agreements or other organizational documents (in each case by merger, consolidation or otherwise) in any manner that (x) impairs the rights of the holders of the Class B Units, including, without limitation, any of the distribution requirements set forth in Section 5.6 of the MLP Agreement or any other financial or economic rights of the holders of the Class B Units or (y) that alters the consent, approval or other governance rights of the holders of the Class B Units or the rights of the Independent Class B Director (including, without limitation, any amendment or modification by merger, consolidated or otherwise by operation of law); and

(v)fail to have a single General Partner, which Person shall also be the sole general partner of the MLP (the "Sole Shared GP Entity");

(vi)cause, permit or allow any change in the identity or control, direct or indirect, of the Sole Shared GP Entity, except (A) the acquisition of control of the Sole Shared GP Entity or the general partner interests in the Partnership and MLP by the Class B Holders pursuant to the Contingent Acquisition Agreement; or (B) the acquisition by foreclosure by secured creditors of the Partnership of the pledged general partner interests in the Partnership, whether under the pledge and security agreement dated as of March 30, 2021 among the grantor party thereto (including the General Partner) and JP Morgan Chase Bank NA or under any successor agreement of similar effect (“Creditor Pledge”);

(vii)cause, permit or allow the transfer (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of the general partner interests in the MLP or the Partnership other than (A) to the Class B Holders pursuant to the Contingent Acquisition Agreement; or (B) as to the general partner interests in the Partnership, to the secured creditors of the Partnership pursuant to a Creditor Pledge; and

(viii)take or cause or permit to be taken any action with respect to taxes, including with respect to any tax elections, tax allocations or other tax matters and interpretation of provisions of this Agreement that relate to taxes, which could reasonably be expected to adversely and disproportionately affect the Class B Units or the Senior Preferred Units.

without, in each case set forth in clauses (i) through (viii), inclusive, the Requisite Class B Unit Consent.

-54-

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time when any Class B Units of the MLP are outstanding, the General Partner shall not authorize or permit the Voting Agreement to be amended without the affirmative vote or consent of at least two thirds of the then-outstanding MLP Class B Units or the Contingent Acquisition Agreement to be amended without the Requisite Class B Unit Consent.

(c)For the sake of clarity, nothing in this Agreement, including provisions that provide the General Partner with “sole discretion”, “reasonable discretion” or the ability to take actions or make determinations in “good faith” or other provisions that give the General Partner the authority to take any action or afford it any rights, privileges or discretion, or any language herein indicating that the provision that follows is “notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement” or similar, shall override the requirements in any provision of this Agreement, including in Section 6.1(d) and Section 6.13 to obtain the approval of the Requisite Class B Unit Consent or any other consent required from the holders of Class B Units, as applicable.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Class B Units are acquired by James E. Ferrell, any Related Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, such Units shall not be permitted to vote on any matter or be counted for the purposes of any voting or approval thresholds laid out in this Agreement.

(e)The holders of the Class B Units are third party beneficiaries under this Agreement with respect to Section 6.1(d) and to this 6.13, any section that references Section 6.1(d) and this Section 6.13 and with respect to any related defined terms, and shall be entitled to enforce such provisions as if such holders were parties to this Agreement.
